    SYSTEMATICS OF THE MEGADIVERSE SUPERFAMILY GELECHIOIDEA (INSECTA: LEPIDOPTEA) DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sibyl Rae Bucheli, M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. John W. Wenzel, Advisor Dr. Daniel Herms Dr. Hans Klompen _________________________________ Dr. Steven C. Passoa Advisor Graduate Program in Entomology ABSTRACT The phylogenetics, systematics, taxonomy, and biology of Gelechioidea (Insecta: Lepidoptera) are investigated. This superfamily is probably the second largest in all of Lepidoptera, and it remains one of the least well known. Taxonomy of Gelechioidea has been unstable historically, and definitions vary at the family and subfamily levels. In Chapters Two and Three, I review the taxonomy of Gelechioidea and characters that have been important, with attention to what characters or terms were used by different authors. I revise the coding of characters that are already in the literature, and provide new data as well. Chapter Four provides the first phylogenetic analysis of Gelechioidea to include molecular data. I combine novel DNA sequence data from Cytochrome oxidase I and II with morphological matrices for exemplar species. The results challenge current concepts of Gelechioidea, suggesting that traditional morphological characters that have united taxa may not be homologous structures and are in need of further investigation. Resolution of this problem will require more detailed analysis and more thorough characterization of certain lineages. To begin this task, I conduct in Chapter Five an in- depth study of morphological evolution, host-plant selection, and geographical distribution of a medium-sized genus Depressaria Haworth (Depressariinae), larvae of ii which generally feed on plants in the families Asteraceae and Apiaceae.

  • Modular Structure, Sequence Diversification and Appropriate
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Modular structure, sequence diversifcation and appropriate nomenclature of seroins produced Received: 17 July 2018 Accepted: 14 February 2019 in the silk glands of Lepidoptera Published: xx xx xxxx Lucie Kucerova1, Michal Zurovec 1,2, Barbara Kludkiewicz1, Miluse Hradilova3, Hynek Strnad3 & Frantisek Sehnal1,2 Seroins are small lepidopteran silk proteins known to possess antimicrobial activities. Several seroin paralogs and isoforms were identifed in studied lepidopteran species and their classifcation required detailed phylogenetic analysis based on complete and verifed cDNA sequences. We sequenced silk gland-specifc cDNA libraries from ten species and identifed 52 novel seroin cDNAs. The results of this targeted research, combined with data retrieved from available databases, form a dataset representing the major clades of Lepidoptera. The analysis of deduced seroin proteins distinguished three seroin classes (sn1-sn3), which are composed of modules: A (includes the signal peptide), B (rich in charged amino acids) and C (highly variable linker containing proline). The similarities within and between the classes were 31–50% and 22.5–25%, respectively. All species express one, and in exceptional cases two, genes per class, and alternative splicing further enhances seroin diversity. Seroins occur in long versions with the full set of modules (AB1C1B2C2B3) and/or in short versions that lack parts or the entire B and C modules. The classes and the modular structure of seroins probably evolved prior to the split between Trichoptera and Lepidoptera. The diversity of seroins is refected in proposed nomenclature. Te silk spun by caterpillars is a composite material based on two protein agglomerates that have been known for centuries as fbroin and sericin.

A total of 36 new cell lines from 10 lepidopteran species were generated, including cell lines from a pyralid, the European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis, a plutellid, the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella, as well as eight noctuids: the black cutworm, Agrotis ipsilon, the celery looper, Anagrapha falcifera, the velvetbean caterpillar, Anticarsia gemmatalis, the corn earworm, Helicoverpa zea, the tobacco budworm, Heliothis virescens, the beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua, the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, and the cabbage looper, Trichoplusia ni. Tissues used for cell line establishment included fat bodies, ovaries, testes, or whole embryos/larvae/pupae. All the cell lines were subcultured numerous times, characterized by isoenzyme analysis and/or deoxyribonucleic acid ampli®cation ®ngerprinting using polymerase chain reaction, and stored in liquid nitrogen.

Introduction The order Lepidoptera is the insect group whose embryogenesis has been well investigated. Until about 30 years ago ,however , the materials had concentrated on the highest group of this order , or the former suborder Ditrysia , and nothing nothing had been known of the embryogenesis of primitive ,non-ditrysian Lepidoptera. In several ditrysian species , for example , Orgyia antiqua , Chilo suppressalis ,Pieris rapae , and Epiphyas pωtvittana ,it had been known that their embryonic embryonic membranes (serosa and amnion) are formed independentl y, not by the fusion of amnioserosal folds to be described described later ,and their germ bands or embryos grow in the submerged condition under the yolk until just before hatching hatching irrespective of the shape and size of eggs (Christensen , 1943; Okada , 1960; Tanaka , 1968; Anderson and Wood ,1968). Since such developmental processes are not common to other insects ,it had been speculated that these processes processes are characteristic not only of the Ditrysia but also of the whole Lepidoptera until the time when Ando and Tanaka Tanaka (1976 , 1980) found out a di 妊erent mode of ea r1 y embryogen 巴sis in the hepialid moths ,Endoclita , belonging to the the non-ditrysian Lepidoptera.

  • Additional Nearctic Records of Wockia Asperipunctella, with Notes on Its Distribution and Structural Variation (Lepidoptera: Urodidae)
    Vol. 5 No. 1 1998 LANDRY: Nearctic Wockia Records 9 HOLARCTIC LEPIDOPTERA, 5(1): 9-13 ADDITIONAL NEARCTIC RECORDS OF WOCKIA ASPERIPUNCTELLA, WITH NOTES ON ITS DISTRIBUTION AND STRUCTURAL VARIATION (LEPIDOPTERA: URODIDAE) JEAN-FRANCOIS LANDRY Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Eastern Cereal and Oilseed Research Centre, C.E.F., Ottawa, Ontario K1A OC6, Canada ABSTRACT.- Records of Wockia asperipunctella (Bruand) from eastern and western Canada indicate a much wider distribution than suspected. They suggest that this European species is also native to North America and thus probably Holarctic. Variation in forewing coloration and genitalia are noted and illustrated. RESUME.- De mentions canadiennes de Wockia asperipunctella (Bruand) demontrent qu'elle a une repartition nearctique beaucoup plus etendue qu'on ne soupconnait. Ces donnees suggerent que 1'espece de 1'Europe est probablement indigene au continent nord-americain et holarctique. L'auteur decrit et illustre les variations de coloration des ailes et des genitalia.
