Venoms of Heteropteran Insects: a Treasure Trove of Diverse Pharmacological Toolkits
Review Venoms of Heteropteran Insects: A Treasure Trove of Diverse Pharmacological Toolkits Andrew A. Walker 1,*, Christiane Weirauch 2, Bryan G. Fry 3 and Glenn F. King 1 Received: 21 December 2015; Accepted: 26 January 2016; Published: 12 February 2016 Academic Editor: Jan Tytgat 1 Institute for Molecular Biosciences, The University of Queensland, St Lucia, QLD 4072, Australia; [email protected] (G.F.K.) 2 Department of Entomology, University of California, Riverside, CA 92521, USA; [email protected] (C.W.) 3 School of Biological Sciences, The University of Queensland, St Lucia, QLD 4072, Australia; [email protected] (B.G.F.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +61-7-3346-2011 Abstract: The piercing-sucking mouthparts of the true bugs (Insecta: Hemiptera: Heteroptera) have allowed diversification from a plant-feeding ancestor into a wide range of trophic strategies that include predation and blood-feeding. Crucial to the success of each of these strategies is the injection of venom. Here we review the current state of knowledge with regard to heteropteran venoms. Predaceous species produce venoms that induce rapid paralysis and liquefaction. These venoms are powerfully insecticidal, and may cause paralysis or death when injected into vertebrates. Disulfide- rich peptides, bioactive phospholipids, small molecules such as N,N-dimethylaniline and 1,2,5- trithiepane, and toxic enzymes such as phospholipase A2, have been reported in predatory venoms. However, the detailed composition and molecular targets of predatory venoms are largely unknown. In contrast, recent research into blood-feeding heteropterans has revealed the structure and function of many protein and non-protein components that facilitate acquisition of blood meals. -

BIOLOGICAL STUDIES ON THE GUT SYMBIONT BURKHOLDERIA ASSOCIATED WITH BLISSUS INSULARIS (HEMIPTERA: BLISSIDAE) By YAO XU A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2015 1 © 2015 Yao Xu 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am fortunate to have been mentored by Dr. Drion Boucias during my doctoral program. His constructive criticism, guidance, and generosity of time and resources allowed me to achieve both breadth and depth in research. Without his inspirational ideas and timely feedback, this dissertation would never have been accomplished on time. I owe my deepest gratitude to my co- advisor, Dr. Eileen Buss, for her encouragement, support, and advice on my academic and personal development. I thank her for admitting me, guiding me to enter the world of Southern chinch bugs, and trusting me. I also would like to thank my other committee members, Drs. Frederick Fishel (Department of Agronomy, UF), Kevin Kenworthy (Department of Agronomy, UF), and Cindy McKenzie (United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service). I appreciate their time, comments, and encouragement on my research and this dissertation. Many scientists and colleagues have been helpful to me during my doctoral program. First, I thank Dr. Michael Scharf (Department of Entomology, Purdue University) for his valuable comments on the detoxification enzyme work, and especially for hosting me in his laboratory in March 2014. Second, I thank Dr. Paul Linser (Whitney Laboratory for Marine Bioscience, UF) for his guidance on the confocal microscopy and allowing me to use the microscopes in his laboratory in April 2015. -

Influence of Plant Parameters on Occurrence and Abundance Of
HORTICULTURAL ENTOMOLOGY Influence of Plant Parameters on Occurrence and Abundance of Arthropods in Residential Turfgrass 1 S. V. JOSEPH AND S. K. BRAMAN Department of Entomology, College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, University of Georgia, 1109 Experiment Street, GrifÞn, GA 30223-1797 J. Econ. Entomol. 102(3): 1116Ð1122 (2009) ABSTRACT The effect of taxa [common Bermuda grass, Cynodon dactylon (L.); centipedegrass, Eremochloa ophiuroides Munro Hack; St. Augustinegrass, Stenotaphrum secundatum [Walt.] Kuntze; and zoysiagrass, Zoysia spp.], density, height, and weed density on abundance of natural enemies, and their potential prey were evaluated in residential turf. Total predatory Heteroptera were most abundant in St. Augustinegrass and zoysiagrass and included Anthocoridae, Lasiochilidae, Geocoridae, and Miridae. Anthocoridae and Lasiochilidae were most common in St. Augustinegrass, and their abundance correlated positively with species of Blissidae and Delphacidae. Chinch bugs were present in all turf taxa, but were 23Ð47 times more abundant in St. Augustinegrass. Anthocorids/lasiochilids were more numerous on taller grasses, as were Blissidae, Delphacidae, Cicadellidae, and Cercopidae. Geocoridae and Miridae were most common in zoysiagrass and were collected in higher numbers with increasing weed density. However, no predatory Heteroptera were affected by grass density. Other beneÞcial insects such as staphylinids and parasitic Hymenoptera were captured most often in St. Augustinegrass and zoysiagrass. These differences in abundance could be in response to primary or alternate prey, or reßect the inßuence of turf microenvironmental characteristics. In this study, SimpsonÕs diversity index for predatory Heteroptera showed the greatest diversity and evenness in centipedegrass, whereas the herbivores and detritivores were most diverse in St. Augustinegrass lawns. These results demonstrate the complex role of plant taxa in structuring arthropod communities in turf. -

The interplay of landscape composition and 3 configuration: new pathways to manage functional biodiversity and agro-ecosystem services 4 across Europe. 5 6 Data preparation 7 Sites and landscapes 8 Raw data collected from researchers across Europe represented sampling and experiments for 9 144 arthropod families from 1960 sites in 10 countries and 29 regions in Europe. We defined 10 sites as belonging to the same study if they were measured by the same group of researchers, 11 using at least one identical method in all sites and years. According to country regulations, 12 land use maps were either directly collected from data holders, or a script was provided to 13 contributors to run calculations on locally held maps. Vector maps of land use were required 14 to be sufficiently detailed to detect boundaries between crop field polygons in order to enable 15 calculation of configuration measures (Fig. S1). As this is not the case of publicly available 16 land cover data, high quality maps compiled and partially ground-validated by study 17 participants were used. These maps were based on digitization of 1-2 m resolution 18 orthophotos and/or on official land use maps obtained from national or regional county 19 offices for each study. Minimum mapping units of the included maps, which allowed 20 boundary detection between crop fields, were 4*4 m (i.e., the smallest elements that were 21 mapped were ca. 4*4 m; see an example land use map in Fig. -
