Effects of azadirachtin after systemic uptake intoBrassica oleracea on larvae ofPieris brassicae

Petioles of intact cabbage leaves were placed in azadirachtin solutions for 24 h. Azadirachtin or active metabolites of this compound appeared to be translocated systemically as performance of first instar larvae ofPieris brassicae L. placed on disks from those leaves was affected. The position within a leaf from which disks were excised did not affect the extent of these effects, indicating a homogeneous distribution of active compounds in the laminar tissue. At doses ranging from 1–10 ppm of azadirachtin in the solution taken up by the leaves, gain of larval fresh weight and leaf area consumed were reduced. These effects were dose dependent up to 60–90 ppm. At 10 ppm and higher doses no larva reached the second instar within 72 h. Mortality during the 72 h period was highest at 10 ppm, due to the coincidence of lethal action with ecdysis in combination with the effect on developmental rate. Azadirachtin solutions applied directly to the surface of leaf disks in order to produce known doses on a leaf fresh weight basis gave results similar to the systemic treatment for weight gain, leaf area consumed and developmental rate, while mortality was higher in the latter treatment.     

Food plant specialization and feeding efficiency in the tent caterpillars Malacosoma disstria and M. americanum

Larvae of Malacosoma americanum (F.) an oligophagous species that feeds primarily on Prunus and other rosaceous trees, were compared to larvae of the more highly polyphagous congener M. disstria Hb., with respect to the efficiency of utilization of the foliage of a common host plant, Prunus serotina Ehrh. We obtained values similar to those reported for other Lepidoptera for the commonly used measures of the fraction of ingested food that was assimilated, and for the growth in dry weight per unit of food ingested or assimilated. Moreover, the two species did not differ in any measure of efficiency. Our results are compatible with the conclusion that specialized phytophagous insects do not use their host plants with greater physiological efficiency than do generalized insects.

Zusammenfassung Raupen von Malacosoma americanum, einer oligophagen Art, die sich vor allem auf Prunus und andern baumartigen Rosaceen. entwickelt, wurden mit Raupen der polyphageren Verwandten M. disstria in Hinblick auf die Verwertung der Blätter ihres gemeinsames Wirtes Prunus serotina verglichen. Wirerhielten ähnliche Werte wie sie früher für andere Lepidopteren publiziert worden waren und zwar in Bezug auf die üblichen Messwerte, Anteil verwertete Nahrung, Wachstum in Trockengewicht pro Einheit gefressene oder verwertete Nahrung. Zudem unterschieden sich die beiden Arten in keiner Masszahl für Effizienz. Unsere Resultate sind im Einklang mit der Folgerung, das spezialisierte phytophage Insekten ihre Wirtspflanzen nicht besser ausnützen als as polyphage Arten tun.

     

Host-age discrimination during host location byCotesia glomerata, a larval parasitoid ofPieris brassicae

Some parasitoids are restricted with respect to the host stage that they attack and even to a certain age within a stage. In this paper we investigate whether the parasitoidCotesia glomerata can discriminate between old and young caterpillar instars of its host,Pieris brassicae, before contacting these hosts, since contacts with older instars are very risky with a chance of being killed, due to the aggressive defensive behaviour of the caterpillars. Flight chamber dual choice tests showed that volatile chemicals emitted by Brussels sprouts plants (Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera) after feeding damage by 1st and 5th larval instars are equally attractive to the wasps. Simulated herbivore damage by 2nd and 5th larval instars, obtained by treating mechanically damaged leaves with carterpillar regurgitant, was also equally attractive, even when the wasps were exposed to repeated experience on different larval instars to increase their discriminatory ability. In contrast, single choice contact bioassays showed that the time spent searching on a leaf with feeding damage of 1st instar larvae was significantly longer than the time spent on 5th instar feeding damage or on mechanically damaged leaves. Both flight and contact bioassays did not show any effect of egg-related infochemicals. The results demonstrate thatC. glomerata can discriminate between young and old larval instars ofP. brassicae, without contacting the caterpillars. This is not done through volatile herbivore-induced synomones but through cues that are contacted after arrival at a caterpillar-infested leaf.     

Testis development in Pieris brassicae parasitized by Apanteles glomeratus

Testis development in Pieris brassicae (L.) parasitized as 1-day-old larvae by Apanteles glomeratus (L.) is considerably retarded from the second-instar onward. Testicular volume is only one sixth and testicular wall thickness only one quarter that of the normal testes at the end of the fifth larval instar. Nevertheless, bundles of sperm are formed in parasitized larvae. After interrupted oviposition, leading to the lowest possible level of parasitism, the effects are of the same magnitude as in more heavily parasitized hosts at comparable age. No significant correlation between number of parasitoids and retardation inflicted is found. The possible source of the effect of parasitism is discussed.

Zusammenfassung Bei den unparasitierten Wirten läuft die gesamte Hodenentwicklung während der Larvenzeit ab. Bei parasitierten Wirten ist der Entwicklungszeitplan identisch, aber das Hodenvolumen bleibt in Larvenstadium auf einem Sechstel und die Hodenwand (Peritonealhülle und Follikelwand) auf einem Viertel in der normalen Werte. Die allmählich hervortretenden Veränderungen beginnen bereits beim zweiten Larvenstadium des Wirtes. Trotz der Veränderungen entwickeln sich auch in den parasitierten Hoden zeitplangemäss Spermienbündel, deren Fertilität jedoch nach ihrem histologischen Aussehen fragwürdig erscheint. Durch eine Unterbrechung der Eiablage des Parasitenweibchens nach 3-sekundiger Ablage konnte ein schwacher Parasitismus hervorgerufen werden, bei dem die Anzahl der Parasitenlarven pro Wirt von 1–8 variierte. Die bei diesen Wirten beobachteten Veränderungen der Hoden waren gleicher Art und gleich gross wie bei stark parasitiertem Material. Eine gute Korrelation zwischen der Zahl der Parasitlarven pro Wirt und der Intensität der pathologischen Veränderungen konnte nicht festgestellt werden. Mögliche Gründe der vom Parasitismus verursachten Veränderungen werden diskutiert. Dafür kommen vor allem die Parasitenlarven ersten und zweiten Stadiums in Frage, aber der eventuelle Anteil des eierlegenden Parasitenweibchens wird auch berücksichtigt.

The C. elegans sex determination gene laf-1 encodes a putative DEAD-box RNA helicase

The Caenorhabditis elegans gene laf-1 is critical for both embryonic development and sex determination. Laf-1 is thought to promote male cell fates by negatively regulating expression of tra-2 in both hermaphrodites and males. We cloned laf-1 and established that it encodes a putative DEAD-box RNA helicase related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ded1p and Drosophila Vasa. Three sequenced laf-1 mutations are missense alleles affecting a small region of the protein in or near helicase motif III. We demonstrate that the phenotypes resulting from laf-1 mutations are due to loss or reduction of laf-1 function, and that both laf-1 and a related helicase vbh-1 function in germline sex determination. Laf-1 mRNA is expressed in both males and hermaphrodites and in both the germline and soma of hermaphrodites. It is expressed at all developmental stages and is most abundant in embryos. LAF-1 is predominantly, if not exclusively, cytoplasmic and colocalizes with PGL-1 in P granules of germline precursor cells. Previous results suggest that laf-1 functions to negatively regulate expression of the sex determination protein TRA-2, and we find that the abundance of TRA-2 is modestly elevated in laf-1/+ females. We discuss potential functions of LAF-1 as a helicase and its roles in sex determination.

Probing the Drosophila retinal determination gene network in Tribolium (II): The Pax6 genes eyeless and twin of eyeless

The Pax6 genes eyeless (ey) and twin of eyeless (toy) are upstream regulators in the retinal determination gene network (RDGN), which instructs the formation of the adult eye primordium in Drosophila. Most animals possess a singleton Pax6 ortholog, but the dependence of eye development on Pax6 is widely conserved. A rare exception is given by the larval eyes of Drosophila, which develop independently of ey and toy. To obtain insight into the origin of differential larval and adult eye regulation, we studied the function of toy and ey in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. We find that single and combinatorial knockdown of toy and ey affect larval eye development strongly but adult eye development only mildly in this primitive hemimetabolous species. Compound eye-loss, however, was provoked when ey and toy were RNAi-silenced in combination with the early retinal gene dachshund (dac). We propose that these data reflect a role of Pax6 during regional specification in the developing head and that the subsequent maintenance and growth of the adult eye primordium is regulated partly by redundant and partly by specific functions of toy, ey and dac in Tribolium. The results from embryonic knockdown and comparative protein sequence analysis lead us further to conclude that Tribolium represents an ancestral state of redundant control by ey and toy.     

Effect of Bacillus thuringiensis naturally colonising Brassica campestris var. chinensis leaves on neonate larvae of Pieris brassicae

The feeding of neonate larvae of Pieris brassicae (Order Lepidoptera) on leaves of brassica plants that had been colonised by Bacillus thuringiensis resulted in the death of 35% of the population within 72 h. The bacteria multiplied in the cadavers, resulting in an increase of about 50-fold compared to the living insects. Surviving insects showed no ill effects during the time of the study. There was negligible multiplication of B. thuringiensis in the frass.

TFS1: A suppressor of cdc25 mutations in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Summary The TFS1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a dosage-dependent suppressor of cdc25 mutations. Overexpression of TFS1 does not alleviate defects of temperature-sensitive adenylyl cyclase (cdc35) or ras2 disruption mutations. The ability of TFS1 to suppress cdc25 is allele specific: the temperature-sensitive cdc25-1 mutation is suppressed efficiently but the cdc25-5 mutation and two disruption mutations are only partially suppressed. TFS1 maps to a previously undefined locus on chromosome XII between RDN1 and CDC42. The DNA sequence of TFS1 contains a single long open reading frame encoding a 219 amino acid polypeptide that is similar in sequence to two mammalian brain proteins. Insertion and deletion mutations in TFS1 are haploviable, indicating that TFS1 is not essential for growth.

环境类型和代谢表型对中华倒刺鲃群体行为的影响

鱼类个体因社会原因而聚集成群现象称作为鱼类群体行为,受到多种因素（如环境类型和能量代谢等）的影响。为考察代谢表型和环境类型对我国长江上游鲤科鱼类群体行为的影响,本研究以喜集群的中华倒刺鲃（Spinibarbus sinensis）为实验对象,在（26.1±0.1）℃水温条件下对该种鱼进行4种代谢表型[低标准代谢率/低代谢空间（低SMR/低AS）、低标准代谢率/高代谢空间（低SMR/高AS）、高标准代谢率/低代谢空间（高SMR/低AS）、高标准代谢率/高代谢空间（高SMR/高AS）]的分型并且在不同生态环境（无食物隐蔽场所、食物、食物隐蔽场所）条件下拍摄实验鱼的群体行为。结果发现：（1）中华倒刺鲃群体中的个体空间位置不受环境类型和代谢表型的影响;（2）中华倒刺鲃在空白环境（无食物隐蔽场所）和食物环境中的个体（群体）游泳速度和移动距离低于食物隐蔽场所环境,但前两种环境的个体游泳速度同步性高于食物隐蔽场所环境。（3）低SMR/低AS表型的个体空间位置的变异系数显著低于其它3种代谢表型;高SMR/高AS表型的最近邻距离以及与群体中间距离均大于低SMR/高AS和低SMR/低AS的两种代谢表型。然而,每种代谢表型在不同环境之间的最近邻距离均无差异。研究表明：虽然中华倒刺鲃群体中的个体空间位置不受环境类型和代谢表型影响,但不同代谢表型间的最近邻距离存在显著差异,暗示个体间的相互吸引力具有代谢表型依赖性;环境复杂性的增加可能不影响中华倒刺鲃的群体协调性。
