Abstract

The research discovered micro- and macroconidia of fungus species from the genus Fusarium on the body surface and in the physiological fluids of H. vigintioctomaculata. There were a high number of hyphae and microconidia and a small number of macroconidia (0.4–0.9%) on the mouthparts of the studied insects. Hyphae and microconidia were numerous in the excrements. Hyphae, microconidia, and macroconidia (up to 20%) were found on the legs. The regurgitated food contained 4.6% microconidia and up to 95.4% macroconidia. The highest number of macroconidia (30%) with three to four constrictions was found in the intestines. It was established that the conidia of Fusarium spp. remained contagious after passing the alimentary canal of the potato ladybird beetle. The maximum degree of damage was observed on the plants infected with the regurgitated food and the contents of the intestines on the 14th day after the infection (a 96 and 90% disease progression rate respectively). The lowest degree of damage was noted on the plants infected with the excrements (a 64% disease progression rate). The obtained data confirmed that Fusarium spp. could be dispersed through feeding and migration of H. vigintioctomaculata in the agroecosystems of potato fields.
