Testing Biological Control Ant-decapitating phorid flies are just one of the biological control agents used to battle imported fire ants. Researchers have also enlisted the help of Thelohania solenopsae, another natural enemy of the ants. This microsporidian (Section 23.4) is a parasite that infects ants and shrinks the ovaries of the colony's egg-producing female (the queen). As a result, a colony dwindles in numbers and eventually dies out. Are these biological controls useful against imported fire ants? To find out, USDA scientists treated infested areas with either traditional pesticides or pesticides plus biological controls (both flies and the parasite). The scientists left some plots untreated as controls. FIGURE 45.28 shows the results. FIGURE 45.28 A comparison of two methods of controlling red imported fire ants. The graph shows numbers of imported fire ants over a 28-month period Orange triangles represent untreated control plots. Green circles are plots treated with pesticides alone Black squares are plots treated with pesticide and biological control agents (phorid flies along with a microsporidian parasite). 3. If this study had ended after the first year, would you conclude that biological controls had a major effect?

Anophelesmosquito life cycle: https://www.cdc.gov/mosquitoes/about/life-cycles/anopheles.html Culexmosquito life cycle: https://www.cdc.gov/mosquitoes/about/life-cycles/culex.html Look at the life cycle of the two mosquito vectors involved in malaria and West Nile virus transmission. Consider the details of their biology in terms of: 1) habitat of different stages, 2) duration of life cycle, 3) food needs, 4) feeding preferences, 5) how far they disperse. Below write out how each might be a useful aspect to consider in terms of controlling the insect and /or its ability to transmit the disease to humans. Anopheles 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Culex 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
