Ontogeny of the immune system in harlequin ladybird, Harmonia axyridis
Original language description
The harlequin ladybird, Harmonia axyridis, is considered to be one of the world’s most important invasive insects. It has been spread over substantial part of Europe and North America in last decades and its invasion is potentially detrimental for native ladybird species. The powerful immune system makes harlequin ladybird highly resistant to diseases that affect other ladybird species and is probably one of the main reasons of its successful invasiveness. In this study, we examined the basic immune parameters including concentration of haemocytes and antimicrobial activity in haemolymph during ontogenetic development (from the 2nd larval instar to the 32 days old adults). The concentration of haemocytes in haemolymph of H. axyridis does not change significantly during larval stages and is quite low until the prepupal stage (about 5500 haemocytes per 1 ul of haemolymph).
