| Abstract | Parasitoid foraging behaviour is known to be influenced by interactions of genetic, physiological, environmental and experiential factors. Although the role of genetics, learning and conditioning in determining responses to foraging cues has been studied in lepidopteran parasitoids, aphid parasitoids have been less intensively researched. Using the tritrophic system,Vicia faba — Acyrthosiphon pisum — Aphidius ervi, evidence for the role of genetics and learning in parasitoid foraging is presented, and the difficulty of differentiating between genetic responses and those conditioned during parasitoid development is discussed. Aphidius ervi responds to aphid sex pheromones both in the field and in the laboratory. Since laboratory reared individuals have never experienced sexual aphids, the response must be genetic as it cannot have been conditioned during development. An example of a response conditioned during development is the variable response ofA. rhopalosiphi to different wheat cultivars depending upon host feeding. Aphid parasitoids also are adept at learning as shown by their responses to plant-derived cues which are learnt as Conditioned Stimuli (CS). Host products such as honeydew, as well as the host itself, can act as the Unconditioned Stimulus (US) in the learning process. Aphidius ervi offers a good model for investigating the role of these factors in parasitoid foraging behaviour. Finally, the value of such research for biological control programmes involving aphid parasitoids is discussed.Le comportement de recherche d’hôtes d’un parasitoïde est connu pour être influencé par des interactions entre facteurs d’ordre génétique, physiologique, environmental et l’apprentissage. Bien que le rôle de la génétique, de l’apprentissage et du conditionnement dans la détermination de la réponse aux stimuli permettant de trouver l’hôte ait été étudié chez les parasitoïdes de Lépidoptères, les parasitoïdes de pucerons ont fait l’objet de recherches plus limitées. En utilisant le système tri-trophique,Vicia faba-Acyrtosiphon pisum-Aphidius ervi, le rôle de la génétique et de l’apprentissage dans le comportement de recherche de l’hôte par les parasitoïdes est mis en évidence, et la difficulté de distinguer entre les réponses d’ordre génétique et celles dues au conditionnement pendant le développement du parasitoïde est discutée. Aphidius ervi est sensible aux phéromones sexuelles du puceron aussi bien en champ qu’en laboratoire. Comme les individus élevés en laboratoire n’ont jamais connu de pucerons de forme sexuée, la réponse doit être génétique puisqu’ils ne peuvent pas avoir été conditionnés durant leur développement. Un exemple de réponse conditionnée lors du développement est la réponse variable d’A. rhopalosiphi à différents cultivars de blé en fonction de l’alimentation de l’hôte. Les parasitoides de puceron sont également doués pour l’apprentissage, comme le montrent leurs réponses aux extraits de plantes qui sont considérées comme Stimuli induits par le Conditionnement. Les productions provenant des hôtes telles que le miellat, aussi bien que l’hôte lui-même, peuvent agir comme stimuli non induits par le conditionnement dans le processus de l’apprentissage. A. ervi constitue un bon modèle pour étudier le rôle de ces facteurs dans le comportement de recherche de l’hôte par le parasitoïde. Enfin il est discuté de l’intérêt d’une telle recherche pour les programmes de lutte biologique impliquant des parasitoïdes de pucerons. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
