Efficient pollination method for apples by using big wasps and wall bees

Abstract

The invention relates to an efficient pollination method for apples by using large wasps and wall bees, which comprises the following steps: 2-3 weeks before the pollination, an apple tree is subjected to conventional disinfection and insect killing; the wall bees are released when 2-5% of the center flowers of the apple tree bloom; 1-2 days after the release of the wall bees, or when 5-10% of thecenter flowers of the apple tree bloom, a beehive with a big wasp group is placed in the apple orchard, and the big wasps are released to pollinate the apples. According to the invention, big wasps and wall bees are used to jointly pollinate the apples, and the big wasps and the wall bees mutually cooperate to influence the pollination, but do not kill each other, the addition of the big wasps not only increase the number of pollination insects under adverse weather conditions, but also change the foraging behavior of the wall bees, increase the feeding quantity among the travelling of the wall bees, thereby improving the pollination efficiency, improving the number of the seeds and increasing the number of the fruits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for efficiently pollinating apples by using bumblebees and wasps, and belongs to the technical field of hybrid breeding methods. Background technique [0002] Apple belongs to the genus Apple of the Rosaceae Apple subfamily. The fruit is spherical and the flesh is crisp and sweet. It is a common fruit and the most common fruit. It is rich in vitamin nutrition and is one of the four major fruits in the world (apple, grape, citrus and banana). ) crown. Apples are usually red, but yellow and green are also available. Most of the apples are self-sterile and require cross-pollination. The fruit develops from the ovary and receptacle. Apple pollination technology determines the fruit setting rate, yield and quality of apples. [0003] In recent years, due to the green and efficient insect pollination, using insects to pollinate plants has become a development trend. There are also many research results in insect pollinat...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The pollination efficiency of bees is low. Bees only visit about 6 flowers per minute, and the working temperature of bees is high. The temperature must be 17 degrees to leave the nest, which is not conducive to the low temperature environment in early spring;

[0005] Although the pollination effect of wall bees is better than that of honey bees (only about 10 flowers are visited per minute, and the temperature is above 12 degrees, the nest is active), but when encountering extreme weather such as cold spring, cloudy, windy, and rainy weather, wall bees Bees cannot go out of the nest, which seriously affects the pollination effect

[0006] Therefore, in view of the current low temperature environment and extreme weather in early spring: late spring cold, cloudy, windy and rainy weather can not pollinate normally, affecting the fruit setting rate, yield and quality of apples, it is necessary to develop a low temperature environment suitable for early spring, Pollination methods in cold, cloudy, windy and rainy weather in extreme weather in order to increase the fruit setting rate of apples
