Fluctuating Asymmetry Spotted Wing Drosophila (Diptera: Drosophilidae) Exposed to Sublethal Doses of Acetamiprid and Nicotine

Abstract

Long-term exposure to low concentrations of toxic substances can cause several adverse consequences ranging from molecular to morphological. Sublethal doses may also lead to increased tolerance in the offspring of surviving individuals. One of the consequences of such stress is deviations from the ideal body symmetry during development, reflected by increased levels of fluctuating asymmetry (FA). This research aimed to verify FA in the wing veins of insects belonging to the Drosophilidae family—Drosophila suzukii, a fruit pest controlled by the insecticide acetamiprid, a neonicotinoid. To determine whether FA varied depending on insecticides present in the diet, multigenerational cultures of D. suzukii were carried out on media supplemented with different concentrations (below the LC50) of two insecticides. Nicotine was used as a positive control. Fecundity decreased, the number of insects decreased, and breeding did not continue beyond the tenth generation. However, the FA level at different concentrations was similar, and high FA values were observed even at lower acetamiprid concentrations. We did not see significant changes in FA levels in subsequent generations. D. suzukii proved extremely sensitive to acetamiprid, and FA is a good index of this sensitivity.
