  • The Ecology of Insect Mediated Transmission of the Fire Blight Pathogen, Erwinia Amylovora, by Orchard Dwelling Dipterans
    THE ECOLOGY OF INSECT MEDIATED TRANSMISSION OF THE FIRE BLIGHT PATHOGEN, ERWINIA AMYLOVORA, BY ORCHARD DWELLING DIPTERANS A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Matthew T. Boucher August 2020 © 2020 Matthew T. Boucher THE ECOLOGY OF INSECT MEDIATED TRANSMISSION OF THE FIRE BLIGHT PATHOGEN, ERWINIA AMYLOVORA, BY ORCHARD DWELLING DIPTERANS Matthew T. Boucher, Ph. D. Cornell University 2020 Fire blight, caused by the bacterial pathogen Erwinia amylovora, is a devastating disease of pome fruit with worldwide distribution. The disease gets its name from the scorched appearance of diseased tissue and infects all tissue types of pomaceous fruit. Tissue in the early stages of infection exude a bacterial ooze containing the bacteria in a polysaccharide matrix, which acts as primary and secondary inoculum. Insects have been implicated in the transmission of E. amylovora since the pathogen was first discovered, with various mechanisms for insect mediated transmission proposed. The goal of this research was to further define the role of insects in transmission of E. amylovora by identifying its most important potential vectors in New York State and advancing our knowledge of the ecology of transmission by insects. In chapter 1, we describe field surveys used to identify key insect vectors over the course of a growing season, showing that while pollinating hymenopterans historically received attention as springtime disease disseminators, dipterans have an understudied and potentially outsized role in transmission throughout the entire season. Various families of Diptera were observed feeding on bacterial ooze and could shed bacteria for at least six days following an acquisition event from ooze.

Jaramillo1 , José-Joaquín Celeita1, Adriana Sáenz1 Abstract The seed maggot, Delia platura, is a major pest of spinach crops in the savanna of Bogotá. In Colombia, chemical insecticides are used to manage the pest; however, because its management is not integrated, information about pest management in spinach is still undetermined. Here, we evaluated the susceptibility of D. platura to seven species of entomopathogenic nematodes from the central Andean region of Colombia. Additionally, under laboratory conditions, we produced and evaluated different doses of infective juveniles (IJs) of the most virulent species. In the laboratory, we used yellow potatoes (Solanum phureja) for breeding to obtain third instar larvae; we then exposed them to infective IJs 2500/species.

  • Ecology and Condition of the Ground Beetle Scaphinotus Angusticollis
    Ecology and Condition of the Ground Beetle Scaphinotus angusticollis and Distribution of its Prey in Pacific Northwest Riparian Forests by Susanne L. Lavallee B.Sc (University of British Columbia), 1994 M.Sc (University of British Columbia, Zoology), 1999 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY In THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Forestry) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA September 2006 © Susanne L. Lavallee, 2006 Abstract I studied the population ecology of the flightless, forest-dwelling carabid beetle Scaphinotus angusticollis Fischer Von Waldheim (O. Coleoptera F. Carabidae) and several aspects of its body condition for their associations with forest harvesting. Comparison of population estimates revealed that catch-per-unit-effort estimates were not significantly different from more detailed analyses. In two years of trapping, S. angusticollis population densities were found to be significantly lower in clearcuts, as compared to 30 m riparian reserves and uncut forest, suggesting that riparian buffers provide adequate habitat to maintain populations of this terrestrial insect. Movement of S. angusticollis differed in the three habitats studied between years and treatments, with the greatest movement occurring in 30 m buffers in one year and in control sites the next. Clearcuts had the lowest amount of movement in both years. One of the known prey species for S. angusticollis, snails < 2 cm in diameter, were more abundant in clearcut habitat, with Ancotrema hybridum the most abundant species. Canonical correspondence analysis suggests that only A. hybridum were positively correlated with plant cover, and that other species abundances may rely on coarse, downed wood as cover.

  • Erwinia Stewartii in Maize Seed
    www.worldseed.org PEST RISK ANALYSIS The risk of introducing Erwinia stewartii in maize seed for The International Seed Federation Chemin du Reposoir 7 1260 Nyon, Switzerland by Jerald Pataky Robert Ikin Professor of Plant Pathology Biosecurity Consultant University of Illinois Box 148 Department of Crop Sciences Taigum QLD 4018 1102 S. Goodwin Ave. Australia Urbana, IL 61801 USA 2003-02 ISF Secretariat Chemin du Reposoir 7 1260 Nyon Switzerland +41 22 365 44 20 [email protected] i PREFACE Maize is one of the most important agricultural crops worldwide and there is considerable international trade in seed. A high volume of this seed originates in the United States, where much of the development of new varieties occurs. Erwinia stewartii ( Pantoea stewartii ) is a bacterial pathogen (pest) of maize that occurs primarily in the US. In order to prevent the introduction of this bacterium to other areas, a number of countries have instigated phytosanitary measures on trade in maize seed for planting. This analysis of the risk of introducing Erwinia stewartii in maize seed was prepared at the request of the International Seed Federation (ISF) as an initiative to promote transparency in decision making and the technical justification of restrictions on trade in accordance with international standards. In 2001 a consensus among ISF (then the International Seed Trade Federation (FIS)) members, including representatives of the seed industry from more than 60 countries developed a first version of this PRA as a qualitative assessment following the international standard, FAO Guidelines for Pest Risk Analysis (Publication No. 2, February 1996). The global study completed Stage 1 (Risk initiation) and Stage 2 (Risk Assessment) but did not make comprehensive Pest Risk management recommendations (Stage 3) that are necessary for trade to take place.

  • Deciphering a Potentially Hyperdiverse Diet of Wandering
    Deciphering a potentially hyperdiverse diet of wandering spider, (Phoneutria boliviensis; Araneae: Ctenidae) by DNA metabarcoding of gut contents Diego Sierra1, Giovany Guevara1, Lida Franco Perez2, Arie van der Meijden3, Julio Gonzalez Gomez1, Juan Valenzuela Rojas4, and Carlos Prada Quiroga4 1Universidad del Tolima Facultad de Ciencias 2Universidad de Ibague 3Affiliation not available 4Universidad del Tolima September 11, 2020 Abstract Arachnids are the most abundant land predators. Despite the importance of their functional roles as predators and the of necessity to understand their diet for conservation and nutrient fluxes, the trophic ecology of many arachnid species is not fully understood. In the case of the wandering spider, Phoneutria boliviensis F. O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1897, only selected field and laboratory observational studies about their diet exist. By using a DNA metabarcoding approach, we compared the prey found in the gut content of males and females from three distant Colombian populations of P. boliviensis. By DNA metabarcoding of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), we detected and identified 234 prey records belonging to 96 operational taxonomic units (OTUs), as prey for this wandering predator. Our results broaden the known diet of P. boliviensis with at least 75 prey taxa not previously registered in fieldwork or laboratory experimental trials. These results suggest that P. boliviensis feeds predominantly on invertebrates (Diptera, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera and Orthoptera) and opportunistically on small squamates. Intersex and interpopulation differences are observed. Assuming that prey preference does not vary between populations, these differences are likely associated with a higher local prey availability. Finally, we suggest that DNA metabarcoding can be used for evaluating subtle differences in the diet of distinct populations of P.

Mex. (n.s.) 84 (2001) 10. THE SPECIES DESCRIBED BY CARL EDUARD ADOLPH GERSTAECKER Carl Eduard Adolph Gerstaecker died on July 20, 1895 at Greifswald, at the age of 67. He was educated for the medical profession and took his degree, but devoted himself to zoology, especially to entomology. For many years he was keeper of the entomological department of the Berlin Natural History Museum and also a professor of zoology at the University of Berlin. About the year 1876, differences with the then director of the Berlin Museum induced him to resign his appointment in Berlin, and he subsequently accepted the professorship of Zoology at Greifswald, which he held until his death. Gerstaecker was an industrious and thorough worker in all departments of entomology. Among his principal works may be noted the “Arthropoda” in the “Handbuch der Zoologie” (1863) and the same phylum in Bronn´s “Klassen und Ordnungen der Tierreichs”.
