In vitro metabolism of the trichothecene 4-monoacetoxyscirpenol by fungus- and non-fungus-feeding insects
1989
Dowd, P.F. | Van Middlesworth, F.L.
The metabolism of the trichothecene 4-monoacetoxyscirpenol by intact gut tissue was determined in the fungus-feeding Nitidulid, Carpophilus hemipterus (L.) and the non-fungus-feeding caterpillars, the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) and the corn earworm, Heliothis zea (Boddie). The primary metabolite was the hydrolysis product scirpentriol. The amount of metabolism by the C. hemipterus larvae was ca 10 times that of the caterpillars on a per mg protein basis, suggesting metabolic adaptation for feeding on fungi that may contain mycotoxins.
