Thrips Tabaci) DISSERTATION PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES OF ONION GERMPLASMS TO IRIS YELLOW SPOT VIRUS AND ONION THRIPS (THRIPS TABACI) Submitted by Charles Osei Boateng Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Spring 2012 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Howard F. Schwartz Ned Tisserat Whitney Cranshaw Michael Bartolo ABSTRACT PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES OF ONION GERMPLASMS TO IRIS YELLOW SPOT VIRUS AND ONION THRIPS (THRIPS TABACI) Onion (Allium cepa L.) is the most economically important monocot outside of the grasses. Onion thrips (Thrips tabaci), a cosmopolitan and polyphagous insect, infests and damages onion crops grown between sea level and 2,000 m. In recent years, onion thrips has emerged as the principal vector of the economically important Iris yellow spot virus (IYSV, family Bunyaviridae). Any attempt to significantly reduce the economic impact of this pest/pathogen will require a multifaceted approach designed in an IPM framework. Host plant resistance is an important foundation to the success of such approaches, and in an effort to find sources of resistance to IYSV and onion thrips, 137, 104 and 84 onion germplasms, respectively, were evaluated in 2009, 2010 and 2011 in northern Colorado, near Fort Collins. Sixteen, 18 and 11 germplasms, respectively, were selected in 2009, 2010 and 2012 for exhibiting acceptable level of tolerance/resistance to the two pests. Of these, PIs 264320, 546140, and 546192 were selected in both 2009 and 2010, and PIs 258956 and 546188 were selected in all three years of the evaluation. Selected germplasms were included as candidates for the onion translational genomics component of this national endeavor. Greenhouse experiments were carried out to study the effects of five treatments; Healthy Control (HC), Spray (S), Thrips Only (T), IYSV Only (V) and Thrips + IYSV (TV), on the growth, physiology and productivity of Colorado 6, Talon and Salsa Red onion cultivars. Seasonal mean net photosynthesis (A) and late season light response curves were higher in Colorado 6 than in Talon. Late season curves were significantly lower in TV, V and T than in HC and S in all ii cultivars. Seasonal mean growth rate was significantly higher in Colorado 6 than in Talon. Among the treatments, seasonal mean growth rate was in the decreasing order of HC, V, TV and T in 2009; and S, HC, V, T and TV in 2011. In one of three years, yield was significantly higher in Colorado 6 than in Salsa Red and Talon. Biomass partitioning pattern revealed that Talon had the highest harvest index among the cultivars. TV had the lowest bulb yield among the treatments in all three years of the study, and caused 14-60% yield loss in Colorado 6, 14-46% loss in Talon, and 17-48% loss in Salsa Red. Seasonal dynamics of IYSV titer in leaves of Colorado 6 and Talon indicated that virus titer for TV and V were consistently higher in Talon than in Colorado 6. Titer was in the increasing order of middle, top and base leaf sections. In naturally infected pre-bulb plants, virus titer increased from Leaf 1 (outer leaf) to Leaf 4 (inner leaf) after which it declined in subsequent younger leaves. Virus was not detected in dead leaves, bulb scales, basal plates or roots. In post-bulb plants, virus titer distribution was considerably non-uniform, with no apparent trend within or between leaves. Sources of resistance to IYSV and onion thrips exist in the onion gene pool. The search for these vital sources should continue so that the sustainability of the U.S. onion industry may be achieved through the use of efficient, reliable and environmentally safe integrated disease management strategies. iii DEDICATIONS This is dedicated to my lovely wife, Mrs. Francisca A.

  • A De Novo Transcriptomics Approach Reveals Genes Involved in Thrips Tabaci Resistance to Spinosad
    insects Article A De Novo Transcriptomics Approach Reveals Genes Involved in Thrips Tabaci Resistance to Spinosad Ran Rosen, Galina Lebedev, Svetlana Kontsedalov, David Ben-Yakir and Murad Ghanim * Department of Entomology, Volcani Center, Rishon LeZion 7505101, Israel; [email protected] (R.R.); [email protected] (G.L.); [email protected] (S.K.); [email protected] (D.B.-Y.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Simple Summary: Insect pest resistance to pesticides is a major problem that limits efficient manage- ment and thus decreases productivity for farmers and increases the use of harmful materials that contaminate the environment and endanger humans and beneficial organisms. A major approach for resistance management is understanding how insect pest field populations develop resistance at biological and molecular levels. In this manuscript, we studied the molecular and biological basis of resistance among tobacco thrips “onion thrips” resistant the susceptible populations to spinosad, a major insecticide that has been extensively used in recent years, by using de novo transcriptomics and bioassays. We found that resistance to spinosad can be metabolic by increasing the levels of detoxifying enzymes among the resistant population; however, resistant populations are more fecund compared to susceptible one, suggesting the lack of fitness cost of the resistance trait. Abstract: The onion thrip, Thrips tabaci (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) is a major polyphagous pest that attacks a wide range of economically important crops, especially Allium species. The thrip’s damage can result in yield loss of up to 60% in onions (Allium cepa). In the past few decades, thrip resistance to insecticides with various modes of actions have been documented.

    ENY-883 Western Flower Thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis [Pergande])1 Jeffrey D. Cluever, Hugh A. Smith, Joseph E. Funderburk, and Galen Frantz2 Introduction Taxonomy Many species of thrips can be found in Florida. These The order Thysanoptera consists of more than 5,000 species include adventive species like Frankliniella occidentalis, in two suborders, Tubulifera and Terebrantia. The suborder Frankliniella schultzei, Thrips palmi, and Scirtothrips Tubulifera has over 3,000 species in one family, Phlaeo- dorsalis. Native species include Frankliniella tritici and thripidae. The suborder Terebrantia consists of over 2,000 Frankliniella bispinosa. Frankliniella occidentalis is a pest species in seven families. Thripidae is the largest of these of several crops throughout Florida and the world and is families, with about 1,700 species. It includes genera such capable of causing economic loss (Fig. 1). as Scirtothrips, Thrips, and Frankliniella (Mound and Teulon 1995; Mound et al. 2009). Synonyms The original name for Frankliniella occidentalis was Euthrips occidentalis Pergande 1895 (Hoddle et al. 2012; GBIF 2014). This species has a high number of synonymies as a result of the variability that Frankliniella occidentalis has in structure and color in its native range. Some other synonyms are (CABI 2014): Euthrips helianthi Moulton 1911 Euthrips tritici var. californicus Moulton 1911 Figure 1. Western flower thrips adult.

  • Networks in a Large-Scale Phylogenetic Analysis: Reconstructing Evolutionary History of Asparagales (Lilianae) Based on Four Plastid Genes
    Networks in a Large-Scale Phylogenetic Analysis: Reconstructing Evolutionary History of Asparagales (Lilianae) Based on Four Plastid Genes Shichao Chen1., Dong-Kap Kim2., Mark W. Chase3, Joo-Hwan Kim4* 1 College of Life Science and Technology, Tongji University, Shanghai, China, 2 Division of Forest Resource Conservation, Korea National Arboretum, Pocheon, Gyeonggi- do, Korea, 3 Jodrell Laboratory, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Richmond, United Kingdom, 4 Department of Life Science, Gachon University, Seongnam, Gyeonggi-do, Korea Abstract Phylogenetic analysis aims to produce a bifurcating tree, which disregards conflicting signals and displays only those that are present in a large proportion of the data. However, any character (or tree) conflict in a dataset allows the exploration of support for various evolutionary hypotheses. Although data-display network approaches exist, biologists cannot easily and routinely use them to compute rooted phylogenetic networks on real datasets containing hundreds of taxa. Here, we constructed an original neighbour-net for a large dataset of Asparagales to highlight the aspects of the resulting network that will be important for interpreting phylogeny. The analyses were largely conducted with new data collected for the same loci as in previous studies, but from different species accessions and greater sampling in many cases than in published analyses. The network tree summarised the majority data pattern in the characters of plastid sequences before tree building, which largely confirmed the currently recognised phylogenetic relationships. Most conflicting signals are at the base of each group along the Asparagales backbone, which helps us to establish the expectancy and advance our understanding of some difficult taxa relationships and their phylogeny.

Each of the three onion varieties, Bombay Red, Red Creole and Orient F1 were intercropped with each of the vegetables and insecticide imidacloprid was used as a standard check. Thrips damage incidence and severity were determined every 7 days with damage severity being estimated on a scale of 1-5. Total and marketable bulb yield were determined at physiological maturity. Intercropping onion with spider plant and carrot significantly (p ≤ 0.05) reduced thrips population by up to 45.2% and 21.6%, respectively but French bean had no significant effect. The three vegetable intercrops significantly (p ≤ 0.05) reduced thrips damage severity, with spider plant having the greatest reduction of up to 15.7%. Intercropping onion with carrot and spider plant significantly (p ≤ 0.05) reduced onion bulb yield while the effect of French bean and imidacloprid on yield was not significant (p ≤ 0.05).
