Introduction There is a number of recently published papers concerning the use of SEM (scanning electron microscopy) for the investigation of the surface eggshell structure in Lepidoptera. Hinton (1981) published a voluminous review of various chorion structures of insect eggs, including Lepidoptera. Many works are devoted to the egg morphology of Heterocera, mostly of Noctuidae and Geometridae (Salkeld, 1975; 1976; 1977; 1983; 1984; Hill, 1982; Fehrenbach & al., 1987; Suludere, 1988 a). -
Molecular Basis of Pheromonogenesis Regulation in Moths
Chapter 8 Molecular Basis of Pheromonogenesis Regulation in Moths J. Joe Hull and Adrien Fónagy Abstract Sexual communication among the vast majority of moths typically involves the synthesis and release of species-specifc, multicomponent blends of sex pheromones (types of insect semiochemicals) by females. These compounds are then interpreted by conspecifc males as olfactory cues regarding female reproduc- tive readiness and assist in pinpointing the spatial location of emitting females. Studies by multiple groups using different model systems have shown that most sex pheromones are synthesized de novo from acetyl-CoA by functionally specialized cells that comprise the pheromone gland. Although signifcant progress was made in identifying pheromone components and elucidating their biosynthetic pathways, it wasn’t until the advent of modern molecular approaches and the increased avail- ability of genetic resources that a more complete understanding of the molecular basis underlying pheromonogenesis was developed. Pheromonogenesis is regulated by a neuropeptide termed Pheromone Biosynthesis Activating Neuropeptide (PBAN) that acts on a G protein-coupled receptor expressed at the surface of phero- mone gland cells. Activation of the PBAN receptor (PBANR) triggers a signal trans- duction cascade that utilizes an infux of extracellular Ca2+ to drive the concerted action of multiple enzymatic steps (i.e. chain-shortening, desaturation, and fatty acyl reduction) that generate the multicomponent pheromone blends specifc to each species. In this chapter, we provide a brief overview of moth sex pheromones before expanding on the molecular mechanisms regulating pheromonogenesis, and con- clude by highlighting recent developments in the literature that disrupt/exploit this critical pathway.

New Data on 38 Rare for the Lithuanian Fauna Lepidoptera Species Recorded in 2019
42 BULLETIN OF THE LITHUANIAN ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY. Volume 3 (31) NEW DATA ON 38 RARE FOR THE LITHUANIAN FAUNA LEPIDOPTERA SPECIES RECORDED IN 2019 VYTAUTAS INOKAITIS, BRIGITA PAULAVIČIŪTĖ T. Ivanauskas Museum of Zoology, Laisvės al. 106 LT-44253 Kaunas, Lithuania. E-mail: [email protected] Introduction Lepidoptera is one of the most widespread and widely recognizable insect orders in the world. It can show many variations of the basic body structure that have evolved to gain advantages in lifestyle and distribution. We can find more than 180,000 species of Lepidoptera in the world, which belong to 126 families and 46 superfamilies (Mallet, 2007). There are 482 species in Europe, 451 of them being found in the 27 member states. Almost a third of these species (142 species) are endemic to Europe (Van Swaay et al., 2008). Today more than 2500 species of Lepidoptera are known in Lithuania. Every year new and rare species for Lithuania fauna are discovered (Ivinskis & Rimšaitė, 2018). This article presents new data on 38 rare for Lithuania moth and butterflies species. They were registered in 4 administrative districts of Lithuania. One species - Chariaspilates formosaria (Eversmann, 1837) is included in the Red Data Book of Lithuania (Rašomavičius, 2007).

Read Full License Version of Record: A version of this preprint was published at BMC Genomics on July 18th, 2020. See the published version at https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-020-06903-5. Page 1/21 Abstract Background Differences in the expression of genes present in both sexes are assumed to contribute to sex differences including behavioural, physiological and morphological dimorphisms. For enriching our knowledge of gender differences in an important egg parasitoid wasp, Anastatus disparis (Hymenoptera: Eupelmidae), sex-biased differences in gene expression were investigated using Illumina-based transcriptomic analysis. Results A total of 67201 resulting unigenes were annotated, including 4206 genes differentially expressed (i.e., sex-biased genes) between females and males including 243 specic genes; the majority of the sex-biased genes (63.72%) were female-biased. Sexually dimorphic traits related to yability and longevity were discussed at the level of gene expression, improving our understanding of those biological traits. Besides, Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analyses showed that the functional categories in sex-biased genes were mainly related to reproduction. Conclusions Overall, this study provides comprehensive insight into the sexually dimorphic traits of parasitoid wasps, offering a basis for future research to better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying such traits and improve the application of these insects to the biological control of pests.
