Abstract

Baculoviruses have been used to control some serious lepidopteran pests. However, their narrow target insect spectrum and slow efficacy are main limitations to be used in various applications. This study introduces a technique to overcome these limitations by inhibiting insect immune defence to enhance the viral pathogenicity. Polydnaviruses are an insect DNA virus group and symbiotic to some ichneumonid and braconid endoparasitoids. Cotesia plutellae bracovirus (CpBV) is a braconid polydnavirus and encodes several immunosuppressive genes. We selected seven CpBV genes and recombined them to wild type Autographa California multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcNPV). A bioassay of these seven recombinants indicated that most recombinants had similar or superior efficacy to wild type AcNPV against beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua, and diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella. Recombinant AcNPV with CpBV-ELP was the most potent in terms of lethal time by shortening more than 2 days compared to wild type AcNPV. This recombinant was further proved in its dose-dependent pathogenicity and its efficacy by spray application on S. exigua infesting cabbage cultivated in pots. We discussed the efficacy of CpBV-ELP recombinant AcNPV in terms of suppressing antiviral activity of target insects.

베큘로바이러스는 일부 나비목 해충을 대상으로 방제하는 데 사용되고 있다. 그러나 화학농약에 비해 느린 살충효과 및 좁은 적용 해충으로 응용 범위에 한계를 갖고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 한계를 극복하고자 곤충의 면역억제을 통해 바이러스 병원력을 제고시킬 수 있는 기술을 소개한다. 폴리드나바이러스는 일부 맵시벌 및 고치벌에 공생하는 곤충 DNA 바이러스 분류군이다. 프루텔고치벌(Cotesia plutellae) 유래 CpBV(Cotesia plutellae bracovirus)는 브라코바이러스에 속한 폴리드나바이러스로서 면역어제를 발휘하는 여러 유전자를 함유하고 있다. 이 가운데 7개의 CpBV유전자를 선발하고 이를 야생형Autographa California multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus(AcNPV)에 재조합하였다. 이들 재조합 베큘로바이러스를 이용하여 파밤나방(Spodoptera exigua)과 배추좀나방(Plutella xylostella)을 대상으로 생물 검정한 결과, 이들 대부분은 야생형의 바이러스와 유사하거나 우수한 살충력을 나타냈다. 특히 CpBV-ELP를 포함한 재조합 베큘로바이러스가 대조바이러스에 비해 살충시간을 약 2 일 이상단축시킴으로 가장 우수하였다. 이 재조합 베큘로바이러스는 농도에 따른 살충력증가와 배추를 가해하는 파밤나방을 대상으로 한 바이러스 살포 처리가 뚜렷한 방제효과를 나타내어 현장 적용 가능성을 제시하였다. 또한 본 연구는 이 재조합 바이러스의 살충력 제고 현상을 CpBV-ELP의 항바이러스 기작 억제라는 측면에서 고찰했다.
