A new technique for mass rearing Clostera anachoreta(C.) was developed through a large numberof experiments, so the problem of mass produce of CaGV was solved. The process of CaGV was discussedin detail.

The activities of two enzymes, lipoxygenase (LOX), a key enzyme ofjasmonate (JA) pathway, and phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), a rate-limiting enzyme of phenyl- propanoid pathway, were measured in the leaves of one-year-old poplar (Populus simonii × P. pyramidalis 'Opera 8277') cuttings after Clostera anachoreta larvae attack. The results show that the increased activities of LOX and PAL were found not only in the leaves wounded by C. anachoreta larvae but also in their tipper systemic leaves, indicating that JA and phenylpropanoid pathways were activated, and the defense response was stimulated systemically. The increase in LOX and PAL activities in neighboring intact poplar cuttings sug- gested that there exists the interplant communication between poplar plants mediated by the herbivore-induced volatiles. Methyl jasmonate (MeJA) was also proved to be an airborne signal to induce defense response in P simonii × P pyramidalis 'Opera 8277' cuttings.展开更多
