Abstract

It is known that each of the ambrosia beetles is associated with one or more symbiotic fungi. The symbiotic fungi are the major food sources of adult and larvae of ambrosia bettles. Ambrosia beetles excavate tunnels in the wood tissue of trees in which they inoculate and cultivate symbiotic fungi which carry in their fungi pouch (Mycangia). Fungi pouch of some little ambrosia beetles were lost and they can not carry symbiotic fungi in their bodies and are known as mycocleptic. Ambrosia beetles cause significant loss in forests and fruit trees. However, it is known that ambrosia fungi also play an important role in the decay of trees. If there is find out an effective method to under control the development of these fungi, alternative methods of combating with ambrosia beetles will be developed.

Özet

Ambrosya böceklerinin her birinin bir veya birkaç simbiyotik fungusla ilişkili olduğu bilinmektedir. Simbiyotik funguslar bu böceklerin ergin ve larvalarının ana besin kaynağını oluşturmaktadır. Ambrosya böceklerinin erginleri ağaçların odun dokusunda açtıkları galerilerine, fungus keselerinde (Mycangia) taşıdıkları simbiyotik fungusları bulaştırarak yetiştirmektedir. Fakat mycocleptic türler olarak bilinen bazı küçük ambrosya böceği türlerinin ise fungus keseleri bulunmadığından simbiyotik fungusları taşımamaktadır. Ambrosya böcekleri orman ve meyve ağaçlarında önemli kayıplara neden olmaktadır. Bununla birlikte, ambrosia funguslarının da ağaçların çürümesinde önemli rol oynadığı bilinmektedir. Bu fungusların gelişimlerini kontrol altına alabilecek etkili bir yöntem bulunduğu takdirde, ambrosya böcekleri ile mücadelede alternatif yöntemler geliştirilebilecektir.
