Abstract
Although intermittent water stress is largely beneficial and continuous water stress largely detrimental to the reproduction and survival of Myzus persicae and Brevicoryne brassicae feeding on Brussels sprouts, there are differences between the species on different leaf ages. During intermittent water stress in the old leaves, the normal feeding stratum of M. persicae , this aphid is relatively more successful than B. brassicae. During continuous water stress in the young leaves, the normal feeding stratum of B. brassicae , this aphid is relatively more successful than M. persicae. The high suitability of old leaves for M. persicae and, to a lesser extent, their low suitability for B. brassicae , are also apparent on turgid plants, in terms of reproduction, survival and the proportion of alate progeny. For M. persicae substrates which permit greater reproduction also promote fewer alatae but this is not always so for B. brassicae. However, crowding was not controlled in these experiments. It is suggested that these responses result from variation in the provision of the different nutritional and phagostimulant requirements of the two species by different leaf ages and during water stress. In the field irrigation may delay aphid multiplication during dry weather. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG REAKTIONEN VON MYZUS PERSICAE UND BREVICORYNE BRASSICAE AUF BLATTALTER UND WASSERMANGEL AN IN TÖPFEN GEZOGENEN KOHLPFLANZEN Die Reaktionen ungeflügelter Virginoparer von M. persicae und B. brassicae auf verschiedenes Blattalter von Kohlpflanzen ( Brassicae oleracea L. var. bullata gemmifera ) in Blumentöpfen mit verschiedener Wasserversorgung wurde an der Reproduktionsrate, der Entwicklungs‐ und Lebensdauer (des Adultstadiums, der Dauer der reproduktiven wie der post‐reproduktiven Phase) und der Geflügeltenbildung der Blattläuse untersucht. Dazu wurden zwei Formen des Wassermangels benutzt: (1) vorübergehender, bei welchem das verfügbare Wasser (AW) zwischen der Feldkapazität und einen im voraus festgelegten Defizit (10% = feucht, 50% = mäßig, 90% = trocken) schwankte, und (2) dauernder, bei welchem eine Abnahme des verfügbaren Wassers von einem bekannten Ausgangspunkt allmählich erfolgte. Obwohl für die Aphiden vorübergehender Wassermangel weitgehend vorteilhaft, beständiger aber schädlich ist, bestehen Unterschiede zwischen den Arten auf verschiedenaltrigen Blättern. Auf jungem und reifem Laub steigen Vermehrung und Lebensdauer beider Arten durch vorübergehenden Wassermangel an, aber auf alten Blättern Jeidet B. brassicae in dem Maße wie sich der Mangel verstärkt, während M. persicae bei mäßigem Mangel Vorteile hat und nur leidet, wenn periodisches Welken eintritt. Bei beiden Arten verursacht beständiger Wassermangel Hemmung der Reproduktion. Diese Abnahme beschleunigt sich bei Annäherung an den permanenten Welkepunkt (PWP) und war für die Aphiden auf alten Blättern am stärksten. Im Gegensatz zu M. persicae nimmt die Reproduktionsrate von B. brassicae sogar am permanenten Welkepunkt nicht ab. Die hohe Eignung alter Blätter für M. persicae und — in geringerem Maße — ihre geringe Eignung für B. brassicae waren auch an turgeszenten Pflanzen bei der Reproduktionsrate, der Überlebensdauer und dem Prozentsatz geflügelter Nachkommen deutlich festzustellen. Es wird vermutet, daß sich diese Reaktionen aus Verschiedenheiten in der Befriedigung unterschiedlicher nutritiver und phagostimulatorischer Bedürfnisse der beiden Arten auf verschieden alten Blättern und bei Wassermangel ergeben. Im Freien dürfte bei trockenem Wetter künstliche Bewässerung die Blattlausvermehrung verzögern.
