摘要
蚊虫作为重要的病媒生物,其大多数种类在成虫阶段需要取食糖餐,且对不同糖餐组分表现出不同偏好。同时,糖餐行为具有特定的时辰节律。野外条件下,不同成蚊对不同开花植物及其果实具有不同的偏好,不同糖餐植物对成蚊的存活率、寿命、繁殖力的影响各不相同。成蚊对糖餐的定位与植物挥发物有关,目前已有多种糖餐植物的活性挥发物被鉴定。含毒糖诱剂对多种成蚊具有良好的防治效果,人们已将其用于多种病媒生物的防治及蚊媒病毒的检测。利用糖餐植物挥发物研发出蚊虫引诱剂,在降低蚊媒疾病风险方面具有广阔的应用前景。本文对成蚊取食糖餐的习性、成蚊偏好的糖餐植物相关研究以及如何利用成蚊的糖餐行为来进行蚊虫防制等进行了综述。
As important disease vectors, most mosquitoes need to take sugar meals in their adult stage, and they show distinct preferences for different constituents of sugar meals. Meanwhile, specific circadian rhythms are observed in their sugar-feeding behaviors. Under field conditions, mosquitoes show preferences for different flowering plants and seed pods, which in turn have significant effects on their survival, longevity and fecundity. The volatile organic compounds produced by nectar plants play important roles in directing mosquitoes＇ location of their sugar hosts, and several electrophysiological active volatile compounds have been identified. Application of attractive toxic sugar baits shows a significant effect on controlling different kinds of mosquitoes. Besides, the sugar-feeding behaviors of vectors have been applied in controlling other disease vectors and detection of vector-borne pathogens successfully. Development of mosquito-specific bait traps on the basis of volatile compounds produced by nectar plants will be promising in decreasing the risk of population of vector-born diseases. In this article, we reviewed the sugar-feeding behavior of adult mosquitoes, the research about preferred host plants of mosquitoes and the mosquito management methods by means of mosquito sugar feeding behavior.
