The hemlock woolly adelgid, Adelges tsugae Annand is an invasive insect that frequently causes hemlock （Tsuga spp.） mortality in the eastern United States. Studies have shown that once healthy hemlocks become infested by the adelgid, nutrients are depleted from the tree, leading to both tree decline and a reduction of the adelgid population. Since A. tsugae is dependent on hemlock for nutrients, feeding on trees in poor health may affect the ability of the insect to obtain necessary nutrients and may consequently affect their physiological and population health. Trees were categorized as lightly or moderately impacted by A. tsugae based on quantitative and qualitative tree health measurements. Population health ofA. tsugae on each tree was determined by measuring insect density and peak mean fecundity; A. tsugae physiological health was determined by measuring insect biomass, total carbon, carbohydrate, total nitrogen, and amino nitrogen levels. Adelges tsugae from moderately impacted trees exhibited significantly greater fecundity than from lightly impacted trees. However, A. tsugae from lightly impacted hemlocks contained significantly greater levels of carbohydrates, total nitrogen, and amino nitrogen. While the results of the physiological analysis generally support our hypothesis that A. tsugae on lightly impacted trees are healthier than those on moderately impacted trees, this was not reflected in the population health measurements. Adelges tsugae egg health in response to tree health should be verified. This study provides the first examination of A. tsugae physiological health in relation to standard A. tsugae population health measures on hemlocks of different health levels.

Reflex bleeding is an important antipredator defense mechanism in Coccinellidae.We examined the costs of reflex bleeding in larval and adult stages of the ladybird beetle Harmonia axyridis on offspring fitness and reproductive performance through the comparisons between bled and control larvae,reciprocal crosses of bled/control beetles,and early and late clutch phenotypes.Beetles bled during their larval stage spent a longer time in development and weighed less than controls.Egg fertility was reduced for crosses where either one or both parents had been bled during the larval or adult stage.Offspring crosses that included a parent bled during the larval stage suffered fitness costs in development and female body mass,while those bled during the adult stage suffered no transgenerational costs.Males that suffered bleeding during their larval stage accelerated progeny development of nonbled females in early clutches,suggesting a positive transgenerational effect of larval bleeding,while males that did not suffer bleeding accelerated progeny development of bled females in later clutches.As the underlying effects of bleeding on females'offspring in the early clutches were diminished in the late ones,suggesting another transgenerational effect.The strengths of maternal and paternal effects on progeny development of parents bled at the larval stage were higher in earlier clutches.This study suggests that H.axyridis adults are less affected than larvae by the frequent use of the defensive secretions in their stressful habitats.

The polyphagous shot hole borer （PSHB）, Euwallacea sp., was first detected in 2003 in Los Angeles County, California, USA. Recently, this invasive species has become a major pest of many hardwood trees in urban and wildland forests throughout southern California. PSHB is nearly identical in morphology and life history to the tea shot hole borer （TSHB）, Euwallaceafornicatus, an invasive pest of hardwoods in Florida, USA and many other parts of the world. However, molecular studies have suggested that the taxa are different species. We conducted morphometric and chemical analyses of the pheno- types of Euwallacea sp. collected in southern California （Los Angeles County） and E. fornicatus collected in Florida （Miami-Dade County）. Our analyses indicated that PSHB has 3 larval instars. The third larval instar was separated from the first 2 instars by head capsule width with 0 probability of misclassification. The body length, head width, and pronotal width of PSHB adult males were significantly less than those of females. Head width and pronotal width of female PSHB were significantly less than those of female TSHB. In contrast, body length, and ratio of body length to pronotal width of female PSHB were significantly greater than those of female TSHB. However, females of these 2 species could not be separated completely by these 4 measurements because of the overlapping ranges. Cuticular hydrocarbons detected in both species were exclusively alkanes （i.e., n-alkanes, monomethylalkanes, dimethylalkanes, and trimethylalkanes）. Cuticular hydro- carbon profiles of PSHB males and females were similar, but they both differed from that of TSHB females. Cuticular hydrocarbons of PSHB were predominantly internally branched dimethylalkanes with backbones of 31 and 33 carbons, whereas cuticular hydro- carbons of TSHB females were dominated by internally branched monomethylalkanes and dimethylalkanes with backbones of 28 and 29 carbons. Multiple compounds within these classes appear to be diagnostic for PSHB and TSHB, respectivel

AIM: To evaluate the effect of Ocimum sanctum leaf extract on the dietary supplementation in the transgenic Drosophila model of Parkinson's disease. METHOD: The effect of Ocimum sanctum leaf extract was studied on the transgenic Drosophila model of flies expressing normal human alpha synuclein(h-αs) in the neurons. O. sanctum extract at final concentrations of 0.042 8 × 10-4, 0.87 × 10-4, and 1.85 × 10-4 g·mL-1 of diet were established and the flies were allowed to feed for 21 days. The climbing assay and lipid peroxidation were taken as parameters for the study. RESULTS: The supplementation of O. sanctum extract showed a dose-dependent significant delay in the loss of climbing ability and reduction in oxidative stress in the brain of PD model flies. CONCLUSION: The results of the present study showed that the O. sanctum extract is potent in reducing the PD symptoms in transgenic Drosophila model.

Sublethal effects of subzero temperatures on the light brown apple moth, Epiphyas postvittana: fitness costs in response to partial freezing

引用

Insect Science 2019年第2期26卷 311-321页

Population responses to envir on mental extremes often dictate the bounds to species' distributions. However, population dynamics at, or near, those range limits may also be affected by sublethal effects. We exposed late instars and pupae of an invasive leafroller, Epiphyaspostvittana (Walker)(Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), to cold temperatures and measured the effects of exposure on subsequent survivorship, development, and reproduction. Cold temperature was applied as acute exposure to -10 °C (a low, but not immediately lethal temperature for this species) or the onset of freezing (the peak of the supercooling point exotherm). Survival was defined as the ability to successfully eclose as an adult. We measured immature development times, pupal mass, and adult longevity as proxies of fitness in survivors. Additionally, surviving insects were mated with individuals that had not been exposed to cold to measure fertility. There was no difference between the proportion of larvae or pupae that survived acute exposure to -10 °C and those exposed to the control temperature. Approximately 17% of larvae and 8% of pupae survived brief periods with internal ice formation and continued development to become reproductively viable adults. Importantly, surviving the onset of freezing came with significant fitness costs but not to exposure to -10 °C;most insects that survived partial freezing had lower fertility and shorter adult lifespans than either the -10 °C or control group. These results are discussed within the context of forecasting invasive in sect distributions.

Ecological factors influencing the beneficial endosymbionts of the hemlock woolly adelgid (Hemiptera:Adelgidae)

引用

Insect Science 2019年第1期26卷 97-107页

Bacterial endosymbionts of sap-sucking insects provide their host with a num- ber of beneficial qualities,including the supply of nutrition,defense against parasitoids, and protection from heat stress.Damage to these bacterial associates can therefore have a negative impact on the fitness of their insect host.We evaluated observational and experi- mental factors regarding the normative hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsugae Annand) (Hemiptera:Adelgidae)to help understand the roles of its three recently identified symbionts,including under heat stress conditions.The prevalence of A.tsugae's facultafive symbiont (Serratia symbiotica)was examined at different spatial scales to determine how variable infection rates are for this symbiont.There was no significant difference found in infection rates between adelgids on a tree,within a plot,or within a state.However, significantly more adelgids in Georgia (95%)had S.symbiotica compared to those in New York (68%).Microsatellite genotyping of the adelgids found that this difference was most likely not the result of a second introduction ofA.tsugae into eastern North America.Comparison orS.symbiotica proportions between first and fourth instars showed that symbiont absence did not affect the ability ofA.tsugae to survive aestivation.Evaluations of sym- biont densities within each adelgid found that when S.symbiotica was absent,the density of obligate symbionts was significantly higher.Exposure to heat stress (32.5℃)was not consistently correlated with changes in symbiont densities over a 4-d period.Overall,we have shown that symbiont prevalence and densities vary within the broad population of A.tsugae in eastern North America,with potentially significant effects upon the ecology of this important pest.

Insect Science 2011年第2期18卷 160-165页

作者： Grzegorz Rosinski Ignacy Korczynski Malgorzata Slocinska Robert Kuzminski Department of Animal Physiology and Development Poznen University Poznan Department of Forest Entomology Agricultural University of Poznan Poznan Poland

The peptides proctolin, crustacean cardioactive peptide （CCAP） and FMRFamide, which are known to modulate insect muscle contractions, were assayed for their action on oviduct contractions in Hylobius abietis. A video microscopy technique and computer-based method of data acquisition and analysis were used to investigate the effects of theses peptides on spontaneous contractions of continuously perfused oviducts. All three peptides tested stimulate spontaneous contraction activity of the pine weevil oviduct, increasing the frequency and amplitude of phasic contractions in a dose-dependent manner. Proctolin is more potent as a stimulator than CCAR For proctolin a threshold response of oviduct muscles is at concentration of peptide 10-11-10^-10mol/L and for CCAP at concentration range 10-10-10-9 mol/L. FMRFamide exerts a weak stimulatory effect on the oviduct, and at higher concentrations of the peptide （above 10.8 mol/L）. The peptides exert different responses on oviduct contractions and they may play a role as functional regulators in such processes as egg movement and oviposition.

During a survey on corticolous Dothideomycetes,several collections with ascospores matching the genera Asteromassaria and Stigmatomassaria(Pleomassariaceae,Pleosporales)were revealed from dead corticated twigs of Acer,Carpinus and Tamarix.Closer morphological examination showed that their ascomata were apothecial,with a hamathecium consisting of septate,branched paraphyses,which are apically swollen at maturity.Several collections were cultured and sequenced,and a Blast search of their nuc 28S rDNA sequences revealed dothideomycetous affiliation,but without a close match to a specific family or order.Phylogenetic analyses of a multigene matrix containing a representative selection of Dothideomycetes from four genes(nuc 18S rDNA,nuc 28S rDNA,rpb2 and tef1)revealed placement within Dothideomycetes but without a supported familial or ordinal affiliation.Based on the phylogenetic analyses and morphological investigations,the new genera Asterodiscus and Stigmatodiscus,with the two new species A.tamaricis and S.enigmaticus,are described and illustrated,and placed in the new family Stigmatodiscaceae and new order Stigmatodiscales.

Abundance of volatile organic compounds in white ash phloem and emerald ash borer larval frass does not attract Tetrastichus planipennisi in a Y-tube olfactometer

Insect Science 2016年第5期23卷 712-719页

Poland Department of entomology Michigan State University 288 Farm Lane Natural Science Building Room 243 East Lansing MI 48824 Department of entomology and Nematology University of California One Shields Avenue Davis CA 95616 USDA forest Service 320 Green Street Athens GA 30602 USDA forest Service 3101 Technology Blvd. Suite F Lansing M148910 USA

Many natural enemies employ plant- and/or herbivore-derived signals for host/prey location. The larval parasitoid Tetrastichus planipennisi Yang （Hymenoptera： Eulophidae） is 1 of 3 biocontrol agents currently being released in an effort to control the emerald ash borer （EAB）, Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire （Coloeptera： Burprestidae） in North America. To enhance its efficiency, allelochemicals that attract it need to be assessed. In this study, ash phloem volatile organic compounds （VOCs） of black, green, and white ash, and EAB larval frass were compared. Foraging behavior of T. planipennisi females in response to VOCs of white ash or frass from EAB larvae feeding on white ash phloem was tested using a Y-tube olfactometer. Results indicated that the 3 ash species had similar VOC profiles. EAB larval frass generally contained greater levels of VOCs than phloem. Factor analysis indicated that the 11 VOCs could be broadly divided into 2 groups, with c^-bisabolol, fl-caryophyllene, （E）-2-hexenal, （Z）-3-hexenal, limonene, methyl benzoate, methyl indole-3-acetic acid, methyl jasmonate, methyl salicylate as the first group and the rest （i.e., methyl linoleate and methyl linolenate） as a second. Abundance of VOCs in white ash phloem tissue and frass, nevertheless, did not attract T. planipennisi females. The concealed feeding of EAB larvae might explain the selection for detectable and reliable virbrational signals, instead of undetectable and relatively unreliable VOC cues from phloem and frass, in short-range foraging by T. planipennisi. Alternatively, it is possible that T. planipennisi is not amenable to the Y-tube olfactometer assay employed.

Physical contact, volatiles, and acoustic signals contribute to monogamy in an invasive aggregating bark beetle

The behavioral strategies and mechanisms by which some insects maintain monogamous mating systems are not well understood.We investigated the mating system of the bark beetle Dendroctonus valens,and identified several contributing mechanisms.Field and laboratory observations suggest the adults commonly form permanent bonds during host colonization.Moreover,it showed mated females that remained paired with males produced more offspring than mated females that were alone in galleries.In bioassays,a second female commonly entered a gallery constructed by a prior female.Videos show she commonly reached the location of the first female,but they did not engage in actual fighting.Rather,the second female typically departs to form her own gallery.Acoustic signaling likewise does not appear to influence female-female encounters,based on controlled muting experiments.Instead the intruder appears to perceive the residents presence by physical contact.Both acoustic signals and volatiles released by females during gallery constructing were shown to attract males.After a male joined a female in a gallery,the male-produced aggressive sounds,which were shown by playback to deter other males from entering the gallery.Unlike female-female interactions,resident males use their head and rear to push intruders out of galleries.Additionally,volatiles released by males during feeding repelled intruding males,discouraging them from entering the gallery.Males also construct plugs that block the entrance,which may prevent subsequent males and predators from entering the gallery.Thus,D.valens has evolved multifaceted mechanisms contributing to single pairings that confer benefits to both sexes.
