制备无菌幼虫和通过重新引入特定细菌菌株获得无菌幼虫是阐明宿主 - 微生物相互作用机制的有力方法。新孵化的幼虫以两种主要方式获得肠道微生物群：从母亲到后代的垂直传播或从兄弟姐妹和环境的水平获取34。前者可以通过亲本通过污染卵表面35将后代转移给后代来实现。因此，通过对昆虫卵表面27、28、29</...

与哺乳动物类似，昆虫消化道是食物消化和吸收的空腔。大多数昆虫含有多种共生细菌，这些细菌在肠道中茁壮成长，并以宿主1提供的营养为生。肠道共生群落对昆虫的多种生理过程具有深远的影响，包括食物消化和解毒2，3，4，营养和发育5，6，7，对病原体和寄生虫的防御8，9，10，11，化学通讯12，13 和行为14，15.有趣的是，一些肠道微生物群可能兼性致病性或被入侵病原体操纵以加重感染，这表明肠道细菌在某些情况下可能是有害的16，17，18。肠道细菌还可以作为生物技术应用和害虫管理的微生物资源。例如，来自植物噬菌和木食虫的木质纤维素消化细菌用于消化植物细胞以开发生物燃料19。表达生物活性分子的工程肠道共生体的分散是一种新颖而有前途的策略，用于管理传播传染病的农林害虫和蚊子19，20，21，其也可用于改善益虫的适应性22。因此，说明肠道细菌 在体内 的行为被认为是充分利用其功能并将其进一步用于各种应用的优先事项。
动物可以在肠道中携带1至>1000种共生微生物物种1。因此，很难准确地验证个体细菌分类群或其组装在动物体内的表现，以及宿主或其微生物伙伴是否驱动特定功能。因此，制备轴性幼虫以通过单物种或多物种定植获得无菌昆虫对于研究细菌功能和与昆虫的相互作用是必要的23。目前，给予抗生素鸡尾酒和对昆虫卵表面进行灭菌是去除肠道细菌的常用方法14，24，25，26。然而，抗生素饮食不能完全消除肠道细菌，并对宿主昆虫的生理学产生负面影响27，28。因此，使用抗生素治疗的昆虫可能会掩盖某些肠道细菌的真正能力。幸运的是，卵的表面灭菌可以消除这个问题23，29，这对实验昆虫没有或可以忽略不计的影响。此外，人工饮食不能完全类似于天然昆虫食品，开发人造饮食是一个昂贵且耗费人力的过程30，31。
柳叶甲虫，Plagiodera versicolora（Laicharting）（鞘翅目：Chrysomelidae），是一种广泛的食叶害虫，主要以水杨树为食，如柳树（柳树）和杨树（杨树L）。32，33.在这里，柳叶甲虫被用作代表性的食叶昆虫，以制定一种方案来准备和饲养无菌昆虫。我们利用植物组织培养物获得无菌的杨树叶，以从灭菌卵中培育出杂色P.通过培养依赖性和培养无关性测定验证了花斑蚴幼虫的轴性状态。该协议可以维持轴系昆虫，这些昆虫比人工饮食的昆虫饲养更能模仿野生条件。更重要的是，这种方法以非常低的成本方便，这增加了获得轴性昆虫用于未来昆虫 - 肠道微生物群相互作用研究的可行性，特别是对于没有发达人工饲料的非模型昆虫。

preparing and rearing axenic insects with tissue cultured seedlings for host-gut microbiota interaction studies of the leaf beetle

昆虫的肠道被各种细菌定植，这些细菌可以深刻地影响宿主的生理特征。将特定的细菌菌株引入轴性昆虫中是验证肠道微生物功能并阐明肠道微生物 - 宿主相互作用机制的强大方法。给予抗生素或对卵子表面进行消毒是两种常用的方法，用于清除昆虫的肠道细菌。然而，除了抗生素对昆虫的潜在不利影响外，以前的研究表明，喂食抗生素并不能消除肠道细菌。因此，无菌人工饲料通常用于维持轴性昆虫，这是一个繁琐且劳动密集型的过程，不能完全类似于天然食品中的营养成分。这里描述的是一种有效且简单的方案，用于制备和维持叶甲虫（Plagiodera versicolora）的轴性幼虫。具体来说，甲虫卵的表面被消毒，然后使用无菌的杨树叶来饲养轴系幼虫。通过培养依赖性和培养无关性测定进一步证实了昆虫的轴性状态。通过结合鸡蛋消毒和无菌栽培，共同开发了一种有效且方便的方法来获得轴性 花叶假单胞菌，为其他食叶昆虫提供了易于转移的工具。

P. versicolora的寿命阶段如图1所示。成年男性比成年女性小（图1A）。在田野里，甲虫将其卵聚集在叶子上;在这里，四个卵从叶子上分离出来（图1B）。用于斧头昆虫饲养的杨树茎段和幼苗如图2所示。3龄幼虫的肠道如图3所示，肠道段用白色括号标记。

Preparing and Rearing Axenic Insects with Tissue Cultured Seedlings for Host-Gut Microbiota Interaction Studies of the Leaf Beetle

为了获得轴性昆虫，其卵表面被灭菌，然后使用轴性叶子饲养孵化的幼虫。这种方法为抗焦虑昆虫的制备提供了一种有效的方法，而无需施用抗生素或开发人造饮食，这也可以应用于其他食叶昆虫。

用组织培养幼苗制备和饲养轴性昆虫用于叶甲虫的宿主 - 肠道微生物群相互作用研究

肠道细菌可以影响昆虫宿主的多种生理过程。准备和维持轴酸幼虫是研究肠道细菌功能的有力工具。该方案的主要优点是，植物组织培养用于获得无菌叶片以芦叶为食，以昆虫为来源的昆虫表面灭菌卵，并且这种方法不受人工日粮的限制。这种方法很方便，可以提高维持轴性昆虫的可见性，用于未来的肠道细菌研究，特别是对于没有发达的人造饮食的非模型昆虫。在27摄氏度和70%相对湿度的生长室中保持花斑蚴种群，光照16小时，暗光照8小时。将昆虫放在带有倾斜的湿吸纸的穿孔塑料盒中，并喂它们新鲜的杨树枝。在吸收的纸张上喷洒清水以保持水分，并每两天更换一次树枝。化蛹后分离成虫产卵，喂它们嫩叶以获得更多的卵。在24小时内，收集新产下的卵并将其放在潮湿的吸收纸上60小时，以制备轴酸幼虫。在每毫升1毫克α-萘乙酸或NAA储备溶液中制备MS培养基。在生物安全罩中，将50微升NAA储备溶液加入500毫升MS培养基中，并摇匀均匀。然后每个组织培养容器倒入约50毫升并等待凝固。在生物安全罩中的酒精灯火焰中对手术刀和镊子进行消毒。在生长约一个月时从杨树幼苗中切下具有顶端芽或侧芽的三至四厘米茎段，并将其插入培养基中，每个容器一个或两个茎段。将这些茎段在生长室中孵育约30天。并用这些无菌的叶子来喂养轴酸幼虫。在含有LB琼脂培养基的培养皿中高压灭菌皿，油漆刷，滤纸，蒸馏水。将带有粘附卵的叶子放入培养皿中。然后用镊子小心地从叶子上取出卵子，并将它们转移到另一个培养皿中。用75%乙醇洗涤这些鸡蛋八分钟。然后用无菌水重复洗涤四次。将卵转移到LB琼脂培养基上，以保持孵化的水分。将培养皿放在生长室中，等待卵在24小时内孵化。在生物安全罩中，在培养皿中铺上三张湿滤纸，并将无菌杨树叶放在纸上。收集幼虫并将其放在叶子上。用Parafilm密封培养皿，并将其在生长室中孵育。每两天更换一次叶子。对于传统饲养的群体，将卵从叶子转移到含有湿滤纸的培养皿中，并用无菌杨树叶喂养这些幼虫。从无菌和常规饲养的群体中随机选择三种第一，第二和第三龄幼虫。在体视显微镜下用无菌剪刀和镊子解剖三龄幼虫，并将其内脏收集在微量离心管中。将完整的第一和第二龄幼虫收集在管中。向1.5毫升管中加入100微升PBS和三个钢球，并使用珠打均质机将组织研磨成均质物。使用无菌玻璃铺展棒将100微升匀浆加入LB琼脂培养基和板中。将板在37摄氏度孵育24小时。然后观察细菌菌落。使用DNA提取试剂盒提取先前获得的组织的总DNA，并用分光光度计测量DNA浓度。使用具有PCR的通用16S rRNA引物扩增细菌16S rRNA基因，按照文本手稿中所述建立反应。将PCR产物储存在四摄氏度，直到进一步分析。将PCR产物与核酸染料混合，并在1X TAE缓冲液中的1%琼脂糖凝胶上使用电泳对其进行分析。使用10微升的DNA标记物作为参考。用UV透射仪观察凝胶，并在1， 500个碱基对周围寻找靶片段。虽然在任何无菌组中都没有观察到细菌菌落，但在所有常规饲养的组中都观察到它们，这表明来自喂养组织培养的杨树叶的灭菌卵的幼虫不含细菌。1， 500个碱基对PCR条带出现在所有常规饲养的组中。相比之下，在无菌组或阴性对照组中未观察到条带，这意味着在轴性幼虫中不存在肠道细菌。对于具有微小卵的昆虫物种，需要优化消毒剂的种类和灭菌时间。此外，组织培养植物中的内生菌应值得注意。该协议为维持无菌昆虫提供了一种新方法，这是促进昆虫 - 肠道细菌相互作用研究的便捷工具，特别是对于没有发达人工饮食的非模型昆虫。
