Device and method for artificially rearing pear borer worm

Abstract

The invention discloses an artificial feeding device for oriental fruit moth. The artificial feeding device comprises a container main body, a container cover, a cloth sleeve and a movable plate, wherein the container main body is a circular container; small holes are formed in the bottom of the container bottom; the periphery of the container bottom is provided with a base; 3-4 notches and bayonets are separately formed in the base; the container cover is connected to the container main body through the bayonets; a plurality of gas vents are uniformly formed in the container cover; the cloth cover is the same with the container main body in shape; the cloth cover is arranged in the container main body; the bottom of the cloth cover is provided with cloth cover holes corresponding to the small holes; the diameter of the movable plate is equal to the inner diameter of the base; the thickness of the movable plate is equal to the spacing among the bayonets; and the outer edge of the movable plate, the notches and the bayonets are symmetrically provided with 3-4 bumps. An artificial feeding method adopting the artificial feeding device for the oriental fruit moth comprises the following steps: (1) preparing feeding environment equipment; (2) preparing the artificial feeding device; (3) preparing a feeding food source; (4) preparing before picking eggs; (5) picking eggs; (6) carrying out feeding operation before emergence; and (7) carrying out emergence for laying eggs.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of insect feeding, in particular to an efficient, convenient and scalable artificial feeding device and method for the small pear borer worm. Background technique [0002] The small pear borer is a kind of fruit-boring pest. Except for Tibet, which does not occur and harm, it harms and occurs in a large area in my country, and it is also a worldwide pest. In order to effectively control the damage of the pear borer, it is a basic work to carry out in-depth research on the biology, ecology and chemical control technology of the pear borer, especially the screening of effective pesticides for the control of the pear borer and the toxicity of the pesticide action. Scientific research and the like must have a large number of test insects with consistent growth and development. In view of this, how to obtain a large number of test insects through indoor artificial breeding has become one of the important links i...

Problems solved by technology

After the applicant adopted the above-mentioned breeding method to raise, it was found that there were the following defects: First, the whole raising process was cumbersome, and the eggs needed to be inoculated on the apples, and after a few days, the larvae were stripped from the apples and inoculated into the inoculation finger tubes. The aseptic conditions should be kept in the tube. After the larvae pupate, the male and female of the newly emerged adults should be mixed from the finger tube to the beaker for reproduction; The larvae died; the third is that the transfer and other processes in the feeding process require a lot of labor costs, and it is impossible to raise them on a large scale; the fourth is that the feed during the feeding process is easily contaminated by microorganisms, which makes the insects infected with germs. Due to the limitation of the nutritional status of the artificial feed itself, the individuals of the raised pear borer are smaller than those in nature, and are prone to individual degradation, which all affect the normal progress of scientific research
