Data from: Long-lasting insecticide treated netting affects reproductive output and mating behavior in Tribolium castaneum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) and Trogoderma variabile (Coleoptera: Dermestidae)

dataset
posted on 2024-02-16, 18:43 authored by Deanna S. Scheff, William R. Morrison, James F. Campbell

Reproductive output and behavioral data from stored-product pest insects exposed to long-lasting insecticide treated netting. Includes offspring output and survival for Trogoderma variabile (treated as larvae) and Tribolium castaneum (treated as adults).


Resources in this dataset:

  • Resource Title: Reproductive Output for female T. castaneum exposed to LLIN.

    File Name: Female_Exposed_Reproductive_Output_RFB.csv

    Resource Description: Exposure = Treated (LLIN) or untreated netting; AgeClass = Day post-pairing (mating); Rep = Replicate; BlockA - Block F = Individual mating pairs, started on different weeks, value is the total adult progeny produced. Females were exposed at 7 days post-pupal emergence and then immediately paired with a virgin male.


  • Resource Title: Reproductive Output for female T. variabile exposed to LLIN.

    File Name: Female_Exposed_Reproductive_Output_WB.csv

    Resource Description: Exposure = Control or Treated (LLIN); Block = started on different weeks; Rep = Replicate within a block; Day = day individual pairs were transferred to new vials; Progeny_Total = total adult progeny produced from the mating pairs. T. variabile larvae were exposed to LLIN for 5-mins. Post-pupal emergence, females were paired with a non-treated virgin male.


  • Resource Title: Behavioral interactions of T. castaneum females exposed to LLIN.

    File Name: interactions_long_female_exposed.csv

    Resource Description: Rep = replicate; Beetle = specific beetle observed, beetles were assayed in a petri dish separated into 4 quarters, the quarters did not interact with one another; Treatment = Control or Treated (LLIN); Interation_Initiated_By = which individual (or both) initiated the interaction (females were painted on their thorax); Duration = duration of interaction; Duration_seconds = duration of interaction in seconds; Copulation = A is attempted (male attempts to mount female), N = No, Y= Yes (male mounts female). Females were exposed for 5-min to LLIN for treated assays. Assay was recorded for 1 hour.


  • Resource Title: Behavioral interactions of T. castaneum males exposed to LLIN.

    File Name: interactions_long_male_exposed.csv

    Resource Description: Rep = replicate; Beetle = specific beetle observed, beetles were assayed in a petri dish separated into 4 quarters, the quarters did not interact with one another; Treatment = Control or Treated (LLIN); Interation_Initiated_By = which individual (or both) initiated the interaction (females were painted on their thorax); Duration = duration of interaction; Duration_seconds = duration of interaction in seconds; Copulation = A is attempted (male attempts to mount female), N = No, Y= Yes (male mounts female). Males were exposed for 5-min to LLIN for treated assays. Assay was recorded for 1 hour.


  • Resource Title: Reproductive Output of female T. variabile paired to males exposed to LLIN.

    File Name: Male_Exposure_Reproductive_Output_WB.csv

    Resource Description: Exposure = Control or Treated (LLIN); Block = Started on different weeks; Rep = replicate within a block; week = week that mating pairs were in a vial; Total Progeny = the total adult progeny produced by a single mating pair. Larvae were exposed to LLIN and paired as adults 1-3 days post-pupal emergence with an unexposed virgin female.


  • Resource Title: Reproductive Output of female T. castaneum paired to males exposed to LLIN.

    File Name: Male_Exposure_Reproductive_Output_RFB.csv

    Resource Description: Exposure = Control or Treated (LLIN); Block = Started on different weeks; Rep = replicate within a block; week = week that mating pairs were in a vial; Total Progeny = the total adult progeny produced by a single mating pair. Males were exposed at 7 days old and immediately paired with an unexposed virgin female.


  • Resource Title: Survivorship of males exposed to LLIN.

    File Name: Male_Exposure_Survivorship_RFB_WB.csv

    Resource Description: Week = week that mating pair was in a given vial; percent_alive = percent of males alive at each week, of total replicates and blocks assayed; exposure = control or treatment (LLIN); Species = RFB (Tribolium castaneum) and WB (Trogoderma variabile). Male T. castaneum were exposed to LLIN as adults at 7 days old and immediately paired with a virgin female; male T. variabile were exposed to LLIN as larvae and then paired 1-3 days after adult emergence with a virgin female.


  • Resource Title: Survivorship of females exposed to LLIN.

    File Name: survivorship_RFB_WB_stacked.csv

    Resource Description: Exposure = Treatment (LLIN) or control; block = started on different weeks; rep = replicate within a block; Longevity = day that the female died; Species = RFB (Tribolium castaneum) and WB (Trogoderma variabile). Female T. castaneum were exposed as adults at 7 days old and immediately paired with a virgin male; female T. variabile were exposed as larvae and paired at 1-3 days emergence as adults to a virgin male.


  • Resource Title: Time for T. castaneum to fall through netting.

    File Name: suspended_netting_data_RFB.csv

    Resource Description: Arena = individual suspended netting arena; Block = assayed on different days; Time = Time (seconds) for adult beetle to fall through netting; Beetle = individual beetle assayed within an arena; Treatment = Control (untreated) and Treated (LLIN). Mixed sex adult beetles (< 30 days old) were assayed with 5 beetles within an arena. Three arenas were observed at the same time.


  • Resource Title: Time for T. variabile to fall through netting.

    File Name: suspended_netting_data_WB.csv

    Resource Description: Arena = individual suspended netting arena; Block = assayed on different days; Time = Time (seconds) for adult beetle to fall through netting; Beetle = individual beetle assayed within an arena; Treatment = Control (untreated) and Treated (LLIN). Mixed sex mid-stage larvae were assayed with 5 larvae within an arena. Three arenas were observed at the same time.

Intended use

These data should be used to compare any other insects that may be of interest in the use of long-lasting insecticide treated netting as a pest management tool for stored-product insect pests. These data also provide a baseline reproductive output for Tribolium castaneum and Trogoderma variabile to understand lifespan and reproductive potential of these pest insects. They could be used in modeling experiments to validate insecticide treatments of predict population growth.

Use limitations

For Tribolium castaneum females exposed to long-lasting insecticide treated netting, there was a lapse in data collection during a furlough.
