Abstract
The rice green leafhopper Nephotettix virescens Distant (Hemiptera:
Cicadellidae), zigzag leafhopper Recilia dorsalis Motschulsky (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), and brown planthopper Nilaparvata lugens Stål (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) are the most economically important insect pests
infesting rice crop. Paederus fuscipes Curtis has been reported as the natural predator for these rice pest
species in Southeast Asia. Under laboratory conditions, we evaluated the prey
preference of this generalist predator when it encountered the three main
agricultural pests of rice plant. P.
fuscipes typically displayed a Type II
functional response for all prey species. However, at high prey densities they
consumed predominantly R. dorsalis with highest attack rate on dead R. dorsalis prey. Conversely, significantly highest time was needed to handle live R. dorsalis. When various density of preys was tested
simultaneously, the predator showed greater preferences towards R. dorsalis and Ni.
lugens. We observed the behavioral
response of P. fuscipes predator on
its prey items. Highest number of searching and capturing attempt was most
frequently displayed on live Ni. lugens prey species. Whereas, P. fuscipes spent more feeding time in consuming dead prey compared to the alive ones.
Overall, P. fuscipes showed
successful control of small and soft body crop pests at low prey density.
Keywords: Biological control; functional response; Paedarus; prey preference; rice pests
Abstrak
Lelompat daun hijau Nephotettix virescens Distant (Hemiptera:Cicadellidae),
lelompat zigzag Recilia dorsalis Motschulsky (Hemiptera:Cicadellidae) dan lelompat
pokok perang Nilaparvata lugens Stål (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) merupakan
perosak penting ekonomi yang menyerang tanaman padi. Paederus
fuscipes Curtis menghuraikan
sebagai pemangsa semula jadi untuk kesemua spesies perosak padi
di Asia Tenggara. Di dalam keadaan makmal, kami menilai pemilihan
mangsa untuk pemangsa ini semasa berhadapan dengan tiga jenis perosak
utama pertanian padi. P. fuscipes menunjukkan tindak balas fungi jenis II untuk
kesemua spesies mangsa, tetapi pada kepadatan tinggi mereka lebih
menggemari R. dorsalis. Kadar serangan tertinggi diperhatikan pada R. dorsalis yang telah mati. Sebaliknya, kadar masa pengendalian
tertinggi diterima oleh R. dorsalis yang hidup. Semasa pelbagai kepadatan diuji pada masa yang sama, pemangsa
menunjukkan pemilihan yang lebih besar terhadap R. dorsalis dan Ni. lugens. Kami juga memerhatikan tindak balas perlakuan
oleh pemangsa P. fuscipes terhadap mangsa. Percubaan untuk mencari dan
menangkap banyak ditunjukkan pada spesies mangsa Ni. lugens yang hidup. Manakala, P. fuscipes menghabiskan lebih masa makan pada mangsa
yang telah mati berbanding yang masih hidup. Secara keseluruhan,
P. fuscipes menunjukkan
keberjayaan dalam mengawal perosak pertanian bertubuh kecil dan
lembut pada kepadatan yang rendah.
