Abstract

Objective To evaluate the effect of different plant infusions on the oviposition behavior of female Aedes albopictus and analyze the chemical composition. Methods The plant infusions were made by soaking leaves of Oryza sativa, Bambusaceae and Cynodon dactylon in sterile water for different times. The oviposition preference of gravid Ae. albopictus to plant infusions was tested in laboratory and field. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometer(GC-MS) was used to detect the chemical compounds of the plant infusions. Results It was different oviposition response of Ae. albopictus laboratory colony to O. sativa, Bambusaceae and C. dactylon infusions. The average spawning rate and oviposition activity index(OAI) were 63.20%-80.20% and 0.26-0.60 in O. sativa infusion; 47.51%-86.34% and -0.05-0.76 in Bambusaceae infusion, respectively. There was no oviposition preference in C. dactylon infusions. The effect of oviposition preference was significant from 30 d(O. sativa) and 50 d(Bambusaceae)to 70 d of soaking time. The trend was that the longer soaking time, the better of attractancy effects. The infusions of O. sativa and Bambusaceae after 50 d soaking time were used to test in field. The average spawning rate and its OAI were 70.99%-96.17% and 69.52%-89.51%, 0.42-0.93 and 0.39-0.79 in O. sativa infusions and Bambusaceae infusions. The GC-MS results showed that O. sativa infusion contained 108 chemical compounds and Bambusaceae infusions with 97 compounds. Of them, there were 17 compounds whose relative percentage more than 3%. The 2, 4-bis(1, 1-dimethylethyl)-phenol and Benzaldehyde were included in all samples and had higher relative content. Conclusion The infusions of O. sativa and Bambusaceae leaf had significant effect on oviposition attractancy after soaking for certain period time,and the major chemical compounds were 2, 4-bis(1, 1-dimethylethyl)-phenol and Benzaldehyde.
