  • Genomic Platforms and Molecular Physiology of Insect Stress Tolerance
    Genomic Platforms and Molecular Physiology of Insect Stress Tolerance DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Justin Peyton MS Graduate Program in Evolution, Ecology and Organismal Biology The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Professor David L. Denlinger Advisor Professor Zakee L. Sabree Professor Amanda A. Simcox Professor Joseph B. Williams Copyright by Justin Tyler Peyton 2015 Abstract As ectotherms with high surface area to volume ratio, insects are particularly susceptible to desiccation and low temperature stress. In this dissertation, I examine the molecular underpinnings of two facets of these stresses: rapid cold hardening and cryoprotective dehydration. Rapid cold hardening (RCH) is an insect’s ability to prepare for cold stress when that stress is preceded by an intermediate temperature for minutes to hours. In order to gain a better understanding of cold shock, recovery from cold shock, and RCH in Sarcophaga bullata I examine the transcriptome with microarray and the metabolome with gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GCMS) in response to these treatments. I found that RCH has very little effect on the transcriptome, but results in a shift from aerobic metabolism to glycolysis/gluconeogenesis during RCH and preserved metabolic homeostasis during recovery. In cryoprotective dehydration (CD), a moisture gradient is established between external ice and the moisture in the body of an insect. As temperatures decline, the external ice crystals grow, drawing in more moisture which dehydrates the insect causing its melting point to track the ambient temperature. To gain a better understanding of CD and dehydration in Belgica antarctica I explore the transcriptome with RNA sequencing ii and the metabolome with GCMS.

  • National Park Service
    Communities in Freshwater Coastal Rock Pools of Lake Superior, with a Focus on Chironomidae (Diptera) A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Alexander Taurus Egan IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Advisor: Leonard C. Ferrington, Jr. May 2014 © Alexander Taurus Egan 2014 Acknowledgements Projects of this size are rarely accomplished without the assistance and support of many people. Primarily, my advisor, Len Ferrington, has been a great source of guidance and enthusiasm. My committee, Jacques Finlay, Ralph Holzenthal, and Roger Moon, have raised the bar considerably by pushing, pulling and steering me toward being a better scientist. Friends and colleagues in the Chironomidae Research Group have made my graduate experience a time I will remember fondly, with Alyssa Anderson, Will Bouchard and Jessica Miller sharing in the successes, misfortunes, and minor but important goals that come with the territory. In particular, Petra Kranzfelder often filled the roles of peer advisor and sounding board for ideas both brilliant and ridiculous. The National Park service has been very generous in many ways, and specific thanks go to Brenda Moraska Lafrançois and Jay Glase, who provided early development and direction for this project. My colleagues Mark Edlund from the Science Museum of Minnesota and Toben Lafrançois from the Science Museum and Northland College have consistently offered excellent ecological advice on what the data mean, often acting as de facto advisors. Without support from Isle Royale National Park this project would not have been possible. In particular, the technical advice, equipment loans, and logistical assistance from Paul Brown, Rick Damstra, Joan Elias, and Mark Romanski were invaluable.

  • Two New Long-Rostrum Cranefly Species from the Cretaceous
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Two new long‑rostrum cranefy species from the Cretaceous Iberian amber (Diptera, Limoniidae, Helius) Iwona Kania‑Kłosok 1*, Wiesław Krzemiński 2 & Antonio Arillo 3 First record of the genus Helius—long‑rostrum cranefy from Maestrazgo Basin (eastern Spain, Iberian Penisula) is documented. Two new fossil species of the genus Helius are described from Cretaceous Spanish amber and compared with other species of the genus known from fossil record with particular references to these known from Cretaceous period. Helius turolensis sp. nov. is described from San Just amber (Lower Cretaceous, upper Albian) Maestrazgo Basin, eastern Spain, and Helius hispanicus sp. nov. is described from Álava amber (Lower Cretaceous, upper Albian), Basque‑Cantabrian Basin, northern Spain. The specifc body morphology of representatives of the genus Helius preserved in Spanish amber was discussed in relation to the environmental conditions of the Maestrazgo Basin and Basque‑Cantabrian Basin in Cretaceous. Te family Limoniidae was previously recorded from Spanish amber. Tree species were described: Alavia neli Krzemiński et Arillo, 2007 1, Helius alavensis Kania, Krzemiński et Arillo, 2016 2, and Helius spiralensis Kania, Krzemiński et Arillo, 2017 3, all from Peñacerrada I outcrop1–3. In Cretaceous Spanish amber, we fnd some of the oldest representatives of the genus Helius, evidence of the beginnings of the evolution of this group of insects. From the Cretaceous period only six species are known, four from Early Cretaceous 2–5, and two from Late Cretaceous 6,7. Te oldest representatives of the genus were described based on lower Barremian 8 inclusions in Lebanese amber, from Hammana-Mdeyrij4,5 and Tannourine (Lebanon4 and two a little younger from upper Albian of Peñacerrada I (Spain)2,3.
