The effects of the lipase inhibitor, tetrahydrolipstatin (THL), on neonate Epiphyas postvittana (Walker) (Lepidoptera, Tortricidae) larvae were investigated by feeding on control artificial diets (with and without 2% ethanol) and diets containing 2% ethanol and one of three concentrations of THL (0.011%, 0.037% and 0.11%). Small but significant reductions in growth rate, percent pupation and time to pupation were observed for larvae feeding on 2% ethanol control diet compared with standard control diet, but larger reductions in all parameters occurred with increasing THL concentration. Third instar larvae fed 0.011% THL in the diet had 40% of the midgut lipase activity in the relevant control larvae and showed up-regulation of gene expression of the gastric lipase-like family but not the pancreatic lipase-like family of midgut lipases. |
