ABSTRACT<br />
Ammar, M. <strong>an</strong>d N’cir, S. 2008. <strong>Incorporation</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Cestrum</strong> <strong>parquii</strong> (<strong>Sol<strong>an</strong>aceae</strong>) <strong>Leaves</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>an</strong><br />

In laboratory, desert locust Schistocerca gregaria was fed with <strong>Cestrum</strong> <strong>parquii</strong> (<strong>Sol<strong>an</strong>aceae</strong>) leaves<br />
which are appreciated by this <strong>in</strong>sect despite their toxic properties. Light microscopy observations revealed<br />
that the foregut structure <strong>of</strong> the 5 th stage is modified at cuticular <strong>in</strong>tima level where no exuvial space<br />
could be seen up to 7 days <strong>of</strong> treatment. By the 9 th day <strong>of</strong> treatment, this space started to appear but no<br />
new cuticle <strong>in</strong>timae were observed as <strong>in</strong> the case <strong>of</strong> the control. The height <strong>of</strong> the epithelial cells <strong>an</strong>d the<br />
thickness <strong>of</strong> muscular layers are reduced signific<strong>an</strong>tly. At midgut level, C. <strong>parquii</strong> elim<strong>in</strong>ated<br />
extracellular micro-org<strong>an</strong>isms by <strong>in</strong>toxication. The food digestion by epithelial cells was precociously<br />
achieved. On day 5, a proliferation <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>tra-cellular microorg<strong>an</strong>isms was observed <strong>an</strong>d then decreased on<br />
day 7 to disappear on day 9 follow<strong>in</strong>g pl<strong>an</strong>t tox<strong>in</strong> accumulation. In the controls, proliferation <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>tracellular<br />
microorg<strong>an</strong>isms was not observed before day 9.<br />

Plagues <strong>of</strong> desert locust, Schistocerca<br />
gregaria, have been recognized as a threat<br />
to agricultural production <strong>in</strong> North Africa<br />
(12). Because <strong>of</strong> the difficulty to predict<br />
locust outbreaks, the concerned countries<br />
used to apply pollut<strong>an</strong>t chemicals for<br />
locust control (9). As <strong>an</strong> alternative <strong>an</strong>d <strong>in</strong><br />
order to preserve the environment, these<br />
countries tend presently to apply<br />
preventive control methods based on the<br />

the ecosystem (11).<br />
With<strong>in</strong> this control concept, some<br />
pl<strong>an</strong>t extracts <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g those <strong>of</strong> Olea<br />
europea <strong>in</strong> Tunisia (3), Eucalyptus<br />
gomphocephala <strong>in</strong> Algeria (8) <strong>an</strong>d<br />
Azadirachta <strong>in</strong>dica <strong>in</strong> Maurit<strong>an</strong>ia (4) were<br />
tested aga<strong>in</strong>st desert locust larvae. All<br />
these pl<strong>an</strong>t extracts revealed toxic effects<br />
on locust larvae <strong>an</strong>d were considered as<br />
effective <strong>in</strong> the control <strong>of</strong> S. gregaria.<br />

caeca level (6, 1). This cytotoxical activity<br />
was confirmed by Kammoun et al. (10) by<br />
electronic microscope observation on<br />
hum<strong>an</strong> sperm.<br />
The aim <strong>of</strong> this work is to determ<strong>in</strong>e<br />
the effects <strong>of</strong> C. <strong>parquii</strong> leaf powder<br />

MATERIALS AND METHODS<br />
Batches <strong>of</strong> 20 locust larvae <strong>in</strong> 5 th<br />
<strong>in</strong>stars from a desert locust mass rear<strong>in</strong>g<br />
conducted <strong>in</strong> laboratory were fed with a<br />

Effect on foregut structure. From<br />
plate 1 (A <strong>an</strong>d B), it appears that on the 5 th<br />
day, the epithelium is recovered by cuticle<br />
<strong>in</strong>timae for treated larvae as <strong>in</strong> the case <strong>of</strong><br />
the control. By the 7 th day, the cuticle<br />
<strong>in</strong>timae appears to be th<strong>in</strong>ner <strong>in</strong> the treated<br />
larvae (plate 1, C <strong>an</strong>d D). Plate 1 (F)<br />
revealed that exuvial space <strong>an</strong>d new<br />
cellular <strong>in</strong>timae were very conspicuous <strong>in</strong><br />
the control larvae. While <strong>in</strong>tact epithelial<br />
cells <strong>an</strong>d thick muscular layers were<br />
observed <strong>in</strong> the control with a clear<br />
separation between the new <strong>an</strong>d the old<br />
<strong>in</strong>timae, very disturbed th<strong>in</strong> <strong>an</strong>d non<br />
separated layers were seen <strong>in</strong> the treated<br />
larvae with import<strong>an</strong>t signs <strong>of</strong> cell damage<br />
(plate 1, E <strong>an</strong>d F).<br />
Effect on midgut structure. The<br />
development <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>tra-cellular<br />
microorg<strong>an</strong>isms was observed earlier<br />
with<strong>in</strong> treated larvae (day 5) as compared<br />
to control larvae (day 9) (plate 2, A <strong>an</strong>d F).<br />
In fact, from plate 2 (B <strong>an</strong>d D) it is<br />
apparent that microorg<strong>an</strong>isms did not<br />
appear at days 5 <strong>an</strong>d 7, as <strong>in</strong> the untreated<br />
control. By contrast, numerous apparently<br />
health microorg<strong>an</strong>isms were detected <strong>in</strong><br />
the C. <strong>parquii</strong> fed larvae at day 5, but<br />
never at day 7 <strong>an</strong>d 9. The number <strong>of</strong> these<br />
microorg<strong>an</strong>isms was signific<strong>an</strong>tly reduced<br />
<strong>an</strong>d they revealed evident signs <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>in</strong>toxication <strong>an</strong>d degeneration as <strong>in</strong>dicated<br />
by the presence <strong>of</strong> pycnotic nuclei (plate 2,<br />
C <strong>an</strong>d E).<br />
We notice that epithelium structure<br />
does not show yet difference between<br />
treated <strong>an</strong>t control <strong>in</strong>sects midgut, due<br />
probably to the fact that cellular<br />
development occurs after this digestion<br />
phase.<br />

DISCUSSION<br />
In concord<strong>an</strong>ce with these<br />
observations, our previous results (2)<br />
showed that the rates <strong>of</strong> total <strong>an</strong>d soluble<br />
prote<strong>in</strong>s <strong>in</strong> the cuticle <strong>in</strong>creased at the end<br />
<strong>of</strong> the 5 th stage <strong>of</strong> desert locust larvae fed<br />
with C. <strong>parquii</strong> leaves <strong>an</strong>d accumulated<br />
<strong>in</strong> the cuticle follow<strong>in</strong>g protease<br />
<strong>in</strong>hibition effect. These <strong>in</strong>vestigations<br />
showed also that the cuticle was modified<br />
at the external <strong>in</strong>tegument level. The<br />
same authors concluded that <strong>in</strong> the lack <strong>of</strong><br />
exuvial liquid at apolysis, the reabsorb<strong>in</strong>g<br />
process is disturbed <strong>an</strong>d the exuviation<br />
does not occur.<br />
Previous studies <strong>in</strong>dicated that under<br />
normal conditions, the extracellular<br />
microorg<strong>an</strong>isms <strong>in</strong>hibit the digestion<br />
enzymes <strong>in</strong> the midgut (13). Once the<br />
nutrient needs <strong>of</strong> these microorg<strong>an</strong>isms<br />
are achieved, the <strong>in</strong>hibition is stopped <strong>an</strong>d<br />
degradation products are absorbed by gut<br />
cells. At this stage, <strong>in</strong>tra-cellular<br />
microorg<strong>an</strong>isms use these products <strong>in</strong><br />
order to achieve the digestion process<br />
(13).<br />
In the case <strong>of</strong> C. <strong>parquii</strong> treated<br />
larvae, therefore, extracellular<br />
microorg<strong>an</strong>isms seem to be destroyed by<br />
C. <strong>parquii</strong> sapon<strong>in</strong>s (3). The <strong>in</strong>hibition <strong>of</strong><br />
digestion enzymes is observed earlier <strong>an</strong>d<br />
on day 5 the <strong>in</strong>tra-cellular<br />
microorg<strong>an</strong>isms use the nutrients<br />
absorbed by <strong>in</strong>test<strong>in</strong>al cells for their<br />
further digestion. In the presence <strong>of</strong><br />
sapon<strong>in</strong>s, these <strong>in</strong>tra-cellular<br />
microorg<strong>an</strong>isms degenerate <strong>an</strong>d show<br />
pycnotic nuclei on day 7. Investigations<br />
about the identification <strong>of</strong> chemical<br />
structure <strong>of</strong> active subst<strong>an</strong>ces,<br />
demonstrate that these compounds are<br />
steroids sapon<strong>in</strong>s (steroid aglycone l<strong>in</strong>ked<br />
to oligosaccharide cha<strong>in</strong>) (5).<br />

Au laboratoire, le criquet pèler<strong>in</strong> Schistocerca gregaria a été nourri par les feuilles de <strong>Cestrum</strong> <strong>parquii</strong><br />
(Sol<strong>an</strong>acées) qui sont appréciées par cet <strong>in</strong>secte malgré leurs propriétés toxiques. Au microscope<br />
photonique, la structure de l’<strong>in</strong>test<strong>in</strong> <strong>an</strong>térieur du 5 ème stade larvaire est modifiée au niveau de l’<strong>in</strong>tima<br />
cuticulaire qui montre l’absence de l’espace exuvial jusqu’au 7 ème jour du traitement. Au 9 ème jour, il<br />
commence à se former s<strong>an</strong>s que les nouvelles <strong>in</strong>tima cuticulaires n’apparaissent, par contre, elles sont<br />
déjà formées chez le témo<strong>in</strong>. Les cellules épithéliales dim<strong>in</strong>uent de la hauteur et les couches<br />
musculaires deviennent mo<strong>in</strong>s épaisses. Au niveau de l’<strong>in</strong>test<strong>in</strong> moyen, le C. <strong>parquii</strong> détruit les<br />
microorg<strong>an</strong>ismes extracellulaires par <strong>in</strong>toxication. La digestion du bol alimentaire par le tissu épithélial<br />
se fait précocement. Au 5 ème jour, nous observons une prolifération des microorg<strong>an</strong>ismes<br />
