tion and characterization of an active nattnanolytic bacterium isolated from de,compos-ing copra.

MATERIAISANDMETHODS

Mateials

Coconut meat residue wirs prepared from frashly glated matured coconut ex-tracted of coconut nilk using a homogenizer. The residue was washed with acetonefollowed by an ether-alcohol (3:1) washing and then dried overnight at 80oC. Mannanfrom coconut residue was prepared according to the procedure of Mukherjee and Rao(a). Other substrates and chemicals were of reagent grade available commercially.

Media

The isolation medium contained the same mineral salts as used by Pablova andTin'yanova (5) and Jones and Ballou (6). Coconut meat residue (0,5Vo) was added assole carbon sour@. Platings were done on the same medi'm except that coconutresidue mrnnan was substituted for coconut residue.

Mehod of Isoluion of Mannanolytic Bocteia

Decomposing copra samples and adjacent soil mixture (2.5 d obtained from acoconut field in Nagcarlan, Laguna, Philippines were macerated and dispensed into 50ml isolation mediu- and incubated with shaking at room temperature for Z hours. Oneml of the suspension was transferred to new msdirrm and incubated under the sameconditions as above. This process was repeated five times to enrich for coconutresidue-utilizing bacteria, Dilutions of the supernatant were plated on mannan agarincubated at3fC and colonies showing areas of clearingwere observed.

Choacterization ond ifuntificuion ef the Organism

ffis rnannslslytic isolate was charactefizrdby standard biochemical and mor-phological techniques and Berge/s Manual was used for the identification.

Crudc Enryme Preparuion

Cell-free supernatants soalaining the enzyme was obtained after centrifugationof the 24-hr culture broth of the organism grown in liquid medium containing the mineralsalts mbcure wrth l% locust bean mannan.

EnrymeAssoy

Locust bean galactomennan was used as substrate. Reaction mfudure consistedof.O.SVo substrate in 0.1M acetate buffer, pH 55 and en4rme in a final volume of 1.0 nl.Incubation was carried out at 3fC for 10 min. Reducing sugars as mannose weremeasured by Nelson-Somogd method (7). A unit of en4me activity is defined as theamount of en4mae that releases l umole of mannose per minute.

Grwbraic Assay of Enzyne Activity

The organisms were inoculated in flasks osn[aining the mineral salts medigm€rce'pt that peptone was omitted and yeast extract concentration was decreased from05 to0.tVo. r imilsd amount of coconut residue (0.17o) was added as sole carbon sourc€and incubated at 3fC for 1 to 2 weeks in a recipiocal shaker. The degree of solubiliza-tion of the coconut residue was measured gravimetrically using tle procedure ofIrmbeck and Colmer (8).

Paper Chromatography

Hydrolytic products from the reaction of the crude enrqe and locust beanmannan were analyzed by 2sssnding paper chromatogtaphy after passing through anionand cation exchange resins to ninimize streaking. The effluent wasevapoiated todrlmess, resuspended in 1.0 ml water and approximately 20 ul were spottJd on filterpaper (lbyo Filter Paper No. 50). The chromatogram was developed lor 24 hrs. withbltanol-pyridine-water (6:4:3, by volume). Reducing sugars were detected after afterdipping in silver nitrate-acetone solution.

RESTJLTS AND DISCUSSION

After a series of repeated enrichments and platines, seven out of 46 bacterialcolonies thatdevelopedin the preliminary scr'esning showed relatively high mannaaassactivitybased on size of clearing zones formed on nuuuran agar. Attempl was made toselect the best strain capable of utilizing mannan and results are shown in Table 1.Coconut meat residue was easily digested by streins No.39 and No.2. It seems that theP_hfsicat treatment (ball milling) subjected to the coconut residue could be enough inaltering the structures of the coconut polpaccharide fibers for it to be susceptible toen4rmatic degradation. This suggests the potentiality of the substrate consideringfurther that it is a waste product for SCP production.

Strain No. 39 also excreted the highest mannanase activity in the medium wheneither coconut residue or locust [es1 6ann31 was used as carbon souroe (Thble 2).Th's, it is apparent that the enzJ@e is inducible as both carbon sources consist largeiyof (l4)B-linked mannose residues. Although the orgenis6 grew well in the liquiimediurn without the carbon sources, insigpificant anount of mannanase was produced.

The selected strain of mannan-utilizing orgenisn is a small, motile, aerobigspue-forming gram-positive, rod-shaped bacterium. Its morphological and biochen-ical characteristics shoum in Thble 3 are identical with that of Bicillus subtilis describedin Bergp/s Manual.

addition to mannose, faint spot overlapping that of mannose was detected. This

compound was not identified due to inavailability of higher mannooligosaccharides as

matlets. The results however indicate that the crude enzyme had substantial mannanase

activity and that the hydrolysis attack results in production of mannooligosaccharideswhich are further degraded to mannose thereby being metabolizcd by the cell.

ABSTRACT

Mercury (I ) -arhanged cocorwt husk fiber was employed for hydtotysisof 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol to 3-hydraxy-? methyl-2-butanone in 71,58 and51.95Vo yield by CH-IN and CH40 mesh sins of caconut husk fiberrcspectively, comporuble to 74.09Eo yield by Dowq-S0 rusin. The cationachanp capacities of CH-100 and CH-40 mesh sizz of huskfiberwere foundto be 0.98 and 0,75 meqlg respectivety.

INTRODUCTION

The cation exchange properties of naturally existi"g cellulosic materials havebeen studied by various researchers (Masters, 1!}22; Ludtke, 1936; Mclean and Wooten,1939; Hayrnann and Ravinov, 19al) and they have shoum that incorporated cellulosicmaterials exhibit cation exchange properties.

Ion exchangers are used as catalytic supports in chemical reactions. Severalorganic reactions are catalyzed by acids, alkalies or metal ions. They are employeddirectly or indirectly by exchanging them on the spthetically available ion exchangers.Nenman (1953) studied the hydrolysis of terminal triple bond to ketonic form in theabsence of, directly using and by supporting mercury (II) ions on Dowex-50 resin showingthe advantage if indirectly using the support in terms of higb major product yield,minimum side reactions and less vigorous reaction conditions.

Hg*Z,Hg+2-Dowex-50-C = C-H

The advantage of indirectly using solid have been demonstrated by variousexamples of conversions of terminal triple bond to ketonic group (GelbarllgTl;Yamawaki and Ando, 1979:' Gree et. al., 1980; tansbury et. al., 1980; Schick, 1982;Maini, 1986; Mnini st. al., 1988). Therole of Hgtz and H + ion has been documented(Marc\ 198t. To date, no studywas carried out to determine the efficiency and capacityof coconut husk fiber, although coconut fibers has been utilizpd for purification of

water (Fraenkel,1974) and in removal of heavy metal from waste water (Latif, 1989),which contains up to 43.tAVo of cellulose to act as a cation exchanger thus promptingthis investigation.

il. The investigation was carried out in four steps:

o Preparation ofhusk fiber.

o Determination of the cation exchange capacity of the husk fiber mesh.

o Preparation of mercurated husk fiber and other synthetic andcommonly used solid supports.

o Hvdration of 2-methvl-3-butyn-2-ol by the direct and indirect use ofui+2 ion.

Preparation of husk fiber:

Mature brown husks were used to obtain the husk fiber. The fiber was separatedfrom the coir dust by mechanical means and washed several times with water. Theseparated fibers were sun-dried for 24 hours and then cut into shorter pieces.These were further ground into uCI and L00 mesh sizes and subsequently dried inan oven at95-100oc for20 hours.The oven-dried fibers were storedintightlyclosedbotles.

Determination of the cation exchange capacity of the husk fiber mesh:

The ion exchange capacities of the prepared CH-40 and CH-1"00 fibers weredetermined by the volumetric method of llelfferich (L%2).

Preparation of mercurated husk fiber and other synthetic and comnronly used solidsuppotts:

About 10 g each of the solid supports CH-40, CH-L00, Dowex-50 resin, silicagel,alumina, florisil, cellulose, celite, and molecular sieves were treated with acid andmercury (II) solutions according to the procedure of Newman (1953).

Hydration of 2-methyt-3-butyn-2-ol by the direct and indirect use of Hg+2 ion.

The 5 g of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol in 30 ml of methanol - water mixture (2:1)containing 3-4 drops of concentrated sulfuric acid was stirred with 5 g of mercuratedhusk fibers at room temperature for 24 hours. The same method was used for the othersolid supports. The final mixture was filtered free from husk fibers (or other solidsuports). The filtrate was diluted with 20 ml of water extracted thrice with 20 ml aliquotsof chloroform. The combined chloroform extracts was washed thrice with 20 ml of water,and then dehvdrated with anhvdrous sodium carbonate. The chloroform was distilled

off and products from various reactions were collected at L*-L4ZoC. The yield of theproduct obtained area on the basis of the reactant used. The reaction was carried outwith mercury (II) alone, without mercury, and with mercurated solid supports. Theproduct 3-hydrory-3-methyl-2-butanone was identified by its infrared and protonmagnetic spectra and 2,4-dinitrophenyl-hydrazone derivatives.

RESTJLTS AND DTSCUSSION

The cation exchange capacity of two fiber mesh sizes CH-40 and CH-1"00 wasdeterminsd to be 0.75 and 0.98 meq/g. The difference in the ion exchange capacities canbe e4plained by their different mesh sizes.In the preparation of mercury flI) exsfuangedmeshes, no physical or visual changes were observed (see Table 1).

The hydration reactions were carried out at ambient conditions to provideidentical reaction conditions, since somesynthetic supports are unstable at high temper-atures. The yields of the product 3-hydrory-3-rnethyl-2-butanone, with various reactionreagents are shown in Table 2. The husk fiber untreated or treated alone with acid ormercury (II) alone failed to effect the reaction given below, which evidently shows therole of solid support in the reaction.

Using Hg (II) ion at 1M concentration only led to a poor yiel d, of 3.8%. Dowex-fl)resin showed 1[s highg5l yield ,74.09Vo owingto its knsqm high cation exchange capacityof 4.9 - 5.2 meq/g. Curiously, CH-100-Hg" mercurated husk fiber despite its muchlower exchange capacity gave a comparable yield of.7t.?8Vo showing that the husk fiberof CH- 100 mesh size is effective and efficient as an ion exchange support for thisreaction.

The product 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-butanone was easily identified due to IR signalat L730 cm-' indicating the presence of a carbonyl group (- C -) and by the disappear-ance of the PMR acetylenic peak at2.46 and appearance of an additional methyl signalat 2.26 for CH-40 and CH-100 mercurated husk fiber (see spectra I&II). Also, thel&dinitrophenyl hydrazone derivative of 3-hydroxy-}methyl-2-butanone from various ,reactions showed melting points in the same range as reported in literature (1,10 - 141$C)(see Table 3).

STJMMARY A}.{D RECOMMENDATIONS

This investigation confirmed that cellulosic materials can be used as cation-ex-changers even in their natural form as exemplified by coconut husk fiber. It was alsofound that particle mesh size affects the ion exchange capacity of the husk fiber.

Philippine loumal of Science

The successful conversion of the given acetylenic compounds by Hg(II) treatedcoconut husk fiber in comparable high yield, proved that coconut husk fiber can beutilized as a low capacity ion-exchanger and solid support for the catalytic hydration oftriple bonds.

However, in order to prove the general use of coconut husk fiber as a catalyticsupport material, or as a low capacity ion-exchanger, a detailed study of more terminaltriple bonded compounds and other classes of catalytic reactions is necessary.

COIJONIZATION AND ABUNDAI{CE OFARTHROPODS oNcucuMBER (cucuMrs sATrvtJS L) ATVARTOUS STAGES OF

PI-A.NT GROWTTI

EVELYN A. BERGONIA3 and CLEOMS R. CERVANCIA4

ABSTRACT

Insect pests, pollinatorc, and other arthropod associated with cucumber(uPL cu-6) were monitored throughout their growing stages Irom Matth toMqt 1989 at the University of the philWines , Los Bafios, Laguna

Colonization by insect pests, pollinatorc, parasites, predaton and tour-bts associated with cucumber was generally influenced by plant age. Ingeneral the afthropod population density increased from seedling to vegeta-tive and reproductive plant stages and decreased as the crop senesced-

The colonization and temporal abundance pattems were discussed.

INTRODUCTION

The increasing demand for picking cucumber provides a good opportunity forlocal growers to expand cultivation. In spite of the crop's adaptability and fast growingmarket, cucumber production has not fully established because of inadequate supply ofse-eds (Gregorio, 1989). Low yields are usually attributed to insect pests, diiiases,adverse climate and inappropriate cultural practices. Cervancia and Iiergonia (1991jreported that inadequate pollination reduced fruit and seed set.

Many insects and other arthropods are associated with cucumber from seedlingto maturity. Thrip infestations caused considerable yield reduction (Welter et al. 1990]Rosenheim et al. 1990). Aphid populations were monitored by Basky and Nasser (19s9)where.three species (Aphis goospil Glover, Aphis craccivora Kock and Myzus persicaeSulzer) were found vectors ofvirus causing diseases.

Screening for insect resistance has been done. Eight of 1160 cucumber lines$ow9d resistance to picle worn Diaphania nitidalis Stoll (Wehner et al. 1985). Basky(19861 noted the importance of natural enemies in regulating aphid populations inHungary and cautioned that chemical methods are dangerous to piedators.

I\donitoring the colonization and temporal abundance of arthropods will providebasal data for development of alternative management program for cucumber produc-

MAIERIAIS A}.ID METHODS

Land Preparation, layout ond planting

A 600 m2 area in the Central Experiment Station, University of the Philippines

at Los Banos was thoroughly harrowed and furrowed at a depth of 30 cmn. Seeds of a

local picking cucumber variety, UPL Cu-6, were sown at a distance of 75 cm between

rows and l0 cm between hills. Ttellises made of wooden poles and straw were installed

to support the growing plants. All the cultural practices recommended by Deanon and

Angat (1984) were followed.

Observations were done from March to May 1'989.

Colonization and abundonce

Arthropods were monitored weekly during the growing stages of the crop.

Samplings weie mostly done early in the morning to avoid diurnal changes in species

visiUitityl nor floral visitors, observations were done during anthesis. Sampling was done

by the following methods:

1. Sweep net sampling. The insect sweep net (38 cm diameter) was used to

sample -ote -obile inseCts. A total of 10 sweeps were taken. Because of the presence

of wboden trellises within the plots, brush strokes were done in between rows. The net

contents were etherized and brought to the laboratory for identification.

2. TlapsJ Sticky broad traps (12 x 32 cm) painted yelfow and red were placed

horizontally alove crop canopy. Four traps (2 yellow and 2 red) were placed equidistant

in each ploi. Ordinary grease *"ur used as sticker. This was spread eueory on ethylene

plastic iut just exactftie size of the board and fitted to the trap board. The plastic on

ih" ttup. o""re changed every after three days. Kerosene was used as solvent to separate

the insect from grease.

3. Per plant sampling. Five randomly chosen test plants, each from the 5 rows

within each cucumber plot were examined for foliar pests. Individual oounts were

recorded from the lrst jfu[y opened leaves of each plant sample. The arthropods were

grouped into three: 1) pesis; 1) natural enemies and tourists; and 3) pollinators and

iower visitors. Tourists are non-predatory species which have no permanent association

with vegetation (Moran and Southwood, 1982).

RESI.]LTS AND DISCUSSION

Pests

A total of 1L species colonized the crop (Fig. 1). The earlist colonists, thrips(Thrips palmi Kirkaldi) and squash beetles (Aulacophora similis Olivier) were observed

At 14 DAE, tw9 mitg-spgcies (Amblyseius sp. and Tbtanychus sp.), melon aphids(Aphis gossypii Glover) and leaf folder larvae (Diiphania indiu Saundin)*"r" udd"d.All populations peaked at this stage and persisted until crop maturity.

Other species like 28-spotted beetle (Epilachna philippinensis Dieke), ladybirdbeetle (Micraspis uocea Mulsant, mealybus (Fenista sp) a"d katydid (phaneripterafurcifera Stal) werc not,numerous and present only at certain stages of plant grottn.Theywere not observed to cause economic damage to the crop.

Natural enemies and touists

-- Jh" species of parasites, predators and tourist which colonized the crop werelisted in Table 1. Some important crop pests could have come from adjaceoi n"tA.planted !9 gto, sugarcane, bitter gourd and legumes. The most numeious speciescollected belonged to Diptera (Culicidae, Dolichopodidae and Muscidae), followed byColeoptera (Chrysomelidae) and Hymenoptera (Braconi<lae and Chalcididae). Otherspecies observed were scarce.

Pollinators and flower visiton

Seven species were observed foraging on the flowers (Fig. 2). These wereEumenes sp., Formicidae, Xylocopa sp., catochrysops cnejus Fabicius, chrosodeiischalcites Espeq, Diaphania indica saunderc and pamara sp. The populatibns were lowwith peaks at 21 and 28 DAE. Insect pests and mites, though reprlsented only by 11specieswere the most numerous (90%).This isbecause of the highpopulation densitiesof mites, aphids and thrips. Their small size is compensated by hlgh relproduction rates.It is also evident that these species have a wide habitat ratrge because they were presentfrom seedling stage to maturity. Thrips and aphids preferied younger piants as shownin their population peaks (21 and 28 DAE)'M1te populations,

-tto*"iuer, p"aked at both

early (14 DAE) and late (42 DAE) stages. This shows that mites are'liss affected byplant age and structure.

The most diverse group was the natural enemy and tourists (42 species), althoughtheir population density was low (10%). No relationship, however, coutd be establishJdbetrveen the populations of pests and natural enemies. It was noted, however, that thepredatory coccinellid (Menochilus semraculatus) colonized the crop simultaneouslywith their host, A gosslpii.,Predatory species are generalists that they prey on touristsas well. It was also difficult to separate the true predatory anO paraiitic species foridentifications up to-species level were not available. Most species were ideniilied onlyup to families. The interactions, then, between prey and pre-dator were not consideredin this study.

Eumenes sp. andXylocopasp. were biotic pollinators. These species visited the blossomregularly and their visits constituted a regular part of their life activity. Moreover, theydid not cause any damage to the flowers. Their foraging synchronized with anthesis.The absence of other bee species could be due to the destruction of their nesting sitesespecially in a developed agroecosystem.

Arthropod abundance sigaificantlyvaried with season (Table 2).

Generally, arthropod populations were low at early stages of plant growt\increased with season, reaching peaks at mid vegetative and reproductive stages anddecreased as crop senesced. It shows that plant stage and structure influence coloniza-tion and temporal abundance. At early plant growth stages, habitat is limited allowingonly for herbivores and species seeking shelter and oviposition sites. As the plant grows,habitat also increases providing more food and shelter to the species. At reproductivestages, additional food sources are provided" like nectar and pollen grains.

The species present throughout the season were relatively few. This maybe dueto the absence of natural vegotation near the site which can serve as potential source ofcolonists. Removal of uncultivated strips alters the succession of nectar and pollenyielding flowers foraged by pollinators and other species. Pesticide usage in the exper-imental area could have affected populations ofarthropods specially the top predators.
