Description

GC-MS technology-based rapid identification method for lepidoptera adults
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of insect identification, and particularly relates to a rapid identification method of lepidoptera adults based on a GC-MS technology.
Background
The species of lepidopteran insects in China are about 8000, most larvae harm various plants, and many of the lepidopteran insects are major agricultural and forestry pests. Population dynamic monitoring of these pests plays an important role in the prediction and forecast of their occurrence. Adult trapping devices such as high-altitude forecasting lamps, black light lamps, sex-luring traps and food-luring traps are applied to lepidoptera pest forecasting. In the process of monitoring the lepidoptera adult population, firstly, the species of the collected adults is identified.
The scale (scale hair) of each color stripe formed on the body and the wing of the adult is an important characteristic for species identification. The adult insect scales are easy to fall off, most of the induced and captured lepidoptera adult scales are lost, the morphological identification difficulty is high, and the adult insect scales are especially similar in morphology. For example, about 1600 species of noctuidae, the first major family of lepidoptera, are known domestically, and the morphology of adults is similar, and the formation of patches of various colors on the scales is an important basis for the morphological identification of adults. The identification by molecular means takes a long time, and the operation is complex and the cost is high.
The hydrocarbon on the surface of the insect has the functions of preventing moisture from losing and serving as an information compound to serve as an information carrier in chemical communication. The species and the content ratio of the hydrocarbons on the body surface have consistency in the species and can be used as a basis for species identification. The traditional extraction method of the hydrocarbon on the body surface of the insect is generally carried out by using a liquid extraction method, namely the hydrocarbon on the body surface of the insect is extracted by using an organic solvent, and the extraction time is generally 12-24 hours. The body surface hydrocarbon content extracted by the method is low, so the extracting solution is usually concentrated, and even part of materials are concentrated, the ideal detection concentration is difficult to achieve, and the quantification and the qualification of the components are directly influenced. In recent years, the solid sample injection technology is applied to the analysis of volatile components on the body surfaces of some types of insects due to the fact that the analysis is rapid and the operation is simple.
The insect forepaw tibiodesmon plays an important role in the combing process of the head and the chest, and body surface hydrocarbons can be evenly smeared on the body surface in the combing process, so that the body surface hydrocarbons on the tibiodesmon are rich in types relative to other parts.
