Retention of immunolabels by Diorhabda carinulata, a biological control agent of saltcedar

Abstract: Marking biological control agents facilitates studies of dispersal and predation. This study examines the feasibility of marking the various life stages of a weed biological control agent, Diorhabda carinulata (Desbrochers) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), by submersion in rabbit or chicken immunoglobulin G (IgG) protein solutions. We determined whether externally applied IgGs are effective labels of the various lifestages, whether IgGs can be retained between D. carinulata lifestages, and to what extent abiotic f… Show more

“…Optical density and percent positive values in this study were similar to those obtained by Williams et al. (). Hagler () showed that rabbit and chicken IgG were detected in the convergent lady beetle, Hippodamia convergens Guérin‐Méneville, several weeks after external treatment with the labels.…”

Optical density and percent positive values in this study were similar to those obtained by Williams et al (2011).
