Bacterial succession in necrotic tissue of agria cactus (Stenocereus gummosus).

The bacterial communities associated with the development of necroses in injured agria cactus tissue were examined in the field by using both human-induced injuries and cactus tissue inoculated with cactophilic bacteria. Whole-cell bacterial fatty acids were used to determine when and where each of 23 detected species occurred. This information was then used to describe successional patterns of bacterial colonization. Although the number of bacterial species in human-induced injuries reached a maximum on day 16, the Shannon-Weaver diversity index increased to a plateau, which reflects a stable bacterial community. The potential of the bacterial community to macerate the injured cactus tissue was also examined, and the results indicate that the bacteria initially colonizing the newly injured cactus tissue were more likely to contain pectinolytic, proteolytic, and lipolytic enzymes than were the bacteria entering the injuries once tissue maceration had already begun. The cactophilic fruit fly Drosophila mojavensis has been previously shown to carry bacteria to newly injured cactus tissue. In these studies, exclusion of these insects did not significantly affect bacterial succession or community structure. This supports our contention that bacteria colonize injured tissue primarily by passive transport, e.g., on wind-blown particles.     

Plant reproductive allocation predicts herbivore dynamics across spatial and temporal scales

Life-history theory suggests that iteroparous plants should be flexible in their allocation of resources toward growth and reproduction. Such plasticity could have consequences for herbivores that prefer or specialize on vegetative versus reproductive structures. To test this prediction, we studied the response of the cactus bug (Narnia pallidicornis) to meristem allocation by tree cholla cactus (Opuntia imbricata). We evaluated the explanatory power of demographic models that incorporated variation in cactus relative reproductive effort (RRE; the proportion of meristems allocated toward reproduction). Field data provided strong support for a single model that defined herbivore fecundity as a time-varying, increasing function of host RRE. High-RRE plants were predicted to support larger insect populations, and this effect was strongest late in the season. Independent field data provided strong support for these qualitative predictions and suggested that plant allocation effects extend across temporal and spatial scales. Specifically, late-season insect abundance was positively associated with interannual changes in cactus RRE over 3 years. Spatial variation in insect abundance was correlated with variation in RRE among five cactus populations across New Mexico. We conclude that plant allocation can be a critical component of resource quality for insect herbivores and, thus, an important mechanism underlying variation in herbivore abundance across time and space.     

An In Vitro Inhibition Test That Predicts Toxicity of Bacterial Pathogen Combinations in the Colorado Potato Beetle

Many insect bacterial pathogens are not toxic enough for field control. Combinations of bacteria may increase toxicity. Bacteria toxic to Colorado potato beetle , Photorhabdus luminescens, Chromobacterium violaceum and Serratia marcescens , were tested in pair-wise combinations in an in vitro double streak test to determine bacterial compatibility. Only C. violaceum and S. marcescens grew to confluency. Their combined toxicity in vivo was additive. Other bacterial combinations had clear zones between bacterial streaks indicating inhibition. In the insect, the combined toxicity was less than the most toxic bacteria of the pair. For these strains, this in vitro test predicted compatibility in the insect.     

Quantitative structure—activity relationship study on the inhibitory effect of some herbicides on the growth of soil micro-organisms

The effect of eight herbicides on the growth of six soil bacteria and three microscopic fungi, and on the amylase, cellulase and dehydrogenase activity in a Hungarian soil was determined. Herbicide decomposition rate in the soil was also assessed. Qualitative structure-activity relationship (principal component analysis, spectral mapping technique and stepwise regression) analysis showed that the overwhelming majority (about 80%) of the effect of herbicides can be explained by one background variable showing the similarity between their mode of action. The two-dimensional non-linear map of principal component loadings and spectral map characteristics suggested that the number of substituents may be important in the determination of the toxic effects. The inhibition of bacterial growth, inhibition of fungal growth, and effects on enzyme activity and decomposition rate all formed different clusters on the maps indicating that herbicides influence these processes differently. Of the nine physicochemical parameters considered, only the electron withdrawing capacity of substituents significantly influenced the biological activity of herbicides, suggesting that electrostatic interactions between the herbicide molecules and micro-organisms is important.

GENETICS OF INCIPIENT SPECIATION IN DROSOPHILA MOJAVENSIS: II. HOST PLANTS AND MATING STATUS INFLUENCE CUTICULAR HYDROCARBON QTL EXPRESSION AND G × E INTERACTIONS

We performed a quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis of epicuticular hydrocarbon variation in 1650 F₂ males from crosses of Baja California and mainland Mexico populations of Drosophila mojavensis cultured on two major host cacti. Principal component (PC) analysis revealed five PCs that accounted for 82% of the total epicuticular hydrocarbon variation. Courtship trials with mainland females were used to characterize hydrocarbon profiles of mated and unmated F₂ males, and logistic regression analysis showed that cactus substrates, two PCs, and a PC by cactus interaction were associated with mating success. Multiple QTLs were detected for each hydrocarbon PC and seven G × E (cactus) interactions were uncovered for the X, second, and fourth chromosomes. Males from the courtship trials and virgins were used, so "exposure to females" was included as a factor in QTL analyses. "Exposed" males expressed significantly different hydrocarbon profiles than virgins for most QTLs, particularly for the two PCs associated with mating success. Ten QTLs showed G × E (exposure) interactions with most resulting from mainland genotypes expressing altered hydrocarbon amounts when exposed to females compared to Baja genotypes. Many cactus × exposure interaction terms detected across QTL and all PCs confirmed that organ pipe-reared males expressed significantly lower hydrocarbon amounts when exposed to females than when reared on agria cactus. Epicuticular hydrocarbon variation in D. mojavensis is therefore a multigenic trait with some epistasis, multiple QTLs exhibited pleiotropy, correlated groups of hydrocarbons and cactus substrates determined courtship success, and males altered their hydrocarbon profiles in response to females.

Mutant SOD1 linked to familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis,but not wild-type SOD1, induces ER stress in COS7 cells and transgenic mice

Mutations in a Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD1) cause motor neuron death in human familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) and its mouse model, suggesting that mutant SOD1 has a toxic effect on motor neurons. However, the question of how the toxic function is gained has not been answered. Here, we report that the mutant SOD1s linked to FALS, but not wild-type SOD1, aggregated in association with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and induced ER stress in the cDNA-transfected COS7 cells. These cells showed an aberrant intracellular localization of mitochondria and microtubules, which might lead to a functional disturbance of the cells. Motor neurons of the spinal cord in transgenic mice with a FALS-linked mutant SOD1 also showed a marked increase of GRP78/BiP, an ER-resident chaperone, just before the onset of motor symptoms. These data suggest that ER stress is involved in the pathogenesis of FALS with an SOD1 mutation.     

Genetic differentiation of island populations: geographical barrier or a host switch?

In the Sonoran desert, there exists a diverse community of cactophilic drosophilids that exploit toxic, rotting cactus tissue as a food resource. The chemistry of the necrotic cactus tissue varies among species, and several drosphilid species have evolved specialized detoxification mechanisms and a preference for certain cactus types. In the present study, we compared the genetic structure of two columnar cactus species, Drosophila mettleri and Drosophila mojavensis, and two prickly pear species, Drosophila mainlandi and Drosophila hamatofila, which have all recently colonized Catalina Island off the coast of southern California. Because there are no columnar cactus species on Catalina Island, the two columnar specialists underwent a host switch to prickly pear cactus, the only cactus present on the island. Previous genetic studies of D. mettleri and D. mojavensis showed significant genetic differentiation between mainland and island populations, which could result from restricted gene flow as a result of the San Pedro Channel, or because of a host switch to prickly pear. To distinguish between these possibilities, we analyzed the genetic structure of the prickly pear species aiming to isolate the effects of geography versus host switching. The results obtained show little to no genetic differentiation for the prickly pear species, supporting the hypothesis that the genetic differentiation of the two columnar species is a result of a host switch from columnar cacti to prickly pear. © 2012 The Linnean Society of London, Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2012, ?? , ??–??.
