However, the continuing increase in the world population and people's preference for quality products have made it necessary to increase the yield and quality of cereals. This situation necessitated scientists to carry out new research to increase the yield and quality of cereals, and to take new measures to eliminate the factors that adversely affect the yield and quality of cereals. Stress factors that occur with climate change have made it necessary for researchers to find new measures. Especially biotic and abiotic stress factors cause significant yield losses in cereals. As in all studies, interdisciplinary studies are of great importance in studies on cereals. For this reason, scientists working in different fields related to cereals were brought together in our study. The aim of this study is to present the readers with new approaches to increase the yield and quality of cereals, as well as modern methods for solving current problems. For this reason, I would like to express my special thanks to our esteemed authors who contributed to our work by sharing their research with us in the formation of our book.

It is produced aproximately on 215 million hectares in the world. It is generally accepted that wheat was the first grown crop about 10,000 to 8,000 BC. It is an importance source of calories (18%) and proteins (20%) for human since domestication with barley, peas, lentil, and chickpea in the Fertile Crescent, which includes the southern part of Turkey (Leonard and Martin, 1963; Kan et al., 2015; Muminjanov and Karagöz, 2018). Turkey is one of the origin of genetic diversity of wheat (Leonard and Martin, 1963; Kan et al., 2015; Muminjanov and Karagöz, 2018; Harlan, 1995). Diploid wheat was firstly cultivated in the Karacadağ Mountains of Turkey and, then, spread to different regions of the world. Archaeological studies have revealed that wild wheats and species have taken an important place in the adaptation and the evolution of wheat (Leonard and Martin, 1963; Kan et al., 2015; Muminjanov and Karagöz, 2018). Wheat has also played an important role in the transition from a hunter-gatherer nomadic to a settled agriculture (Diamond, 1997). According to the information obtained from the archaeological excavations, it is thought that agriculture in Anatolia had started about 10,000 years ago. The excavations carried out in Göbeklitepe (Şanlıurfa)-Turkey showed that, regular agriculture was practiced in that period as well as processing of wheat such as grinding (Bird, 1999). 6 | THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL NEW APPROACHES IN CEREAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY The spread of wheat from its origin to the world has been through Anatolia and Greece (8,000 BP). It reached Balkan and crossed to Italy, France, and Spain (7,000 BP), finally the UK, and Scandanavia by about 5,000 BP. Moreover, wheat spread, via İran, into central Asia reaching China around 3,000 BP and to finally Africa via Egypt. It was introduced to Mexico in 1529 and to Australia in 1788 by Spaniards (Feldman, 2001). Wheat characterized in two genera (Aegilops and Triticum) and three polidy levels (diploid 2n=14, tetraploid 2n=28 and hexaploid 2n=42) in Turkey (Table 1) (Muminjanov and Karagöz, 2018). Triticum species have been formed as result of natural hybridization between Triticum and Aegilops. Table 1. Wheat Genetic Resources in Turkey Ploidy Taxon Diploid Aegilops caudata, Ae. comosa ssp. comosa and ssp. (2n=14) heldreichii Ae. speltoides var. ligustica and var. speltoides, Ae. tauschii Ae. umbellulata, Ae. uniaristata Triticum boeticum, T. ssp. monococcum T. urartu Tetraploid Ae. biuncialis, Ae. columnaris (2n=28) Ae. cylindrica, Ae. geniculata Ae. kotschyi, Ae. neglecta Ae. peregrina, Ae. triuncialis ssp. persica, and ssp. triuncialis Ae. crassa T. carthlicum, T. dicoccoides T. dicoccon, T. durum, T. polonicum T. timopheevii, T. turgidum Hexaploid Ae. juvenalis, Ae. neglecta (2n=42) Ae. vavilovii T. aestivum THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL NEW APPROACHES IN CEREAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY | 7 The genus name ‘Triticum’ was derived from Latin tero (I thresh). Three genomes (A, B (S), and D) have been part of modern wheat evolution. It has been reported that the donor of A genome is T. urartu (Dubbin et al., 1997) and B genome is Ae. speltoides (Gitte et al., 2006). There is an opinion that the donor of D genome is Ae. tauschii (Kimber and Feldman, 1987). Triticum vulgare (no longer accepted) was being used instead of Triticum aestivum which defines the species name of bread wheat. Current name is Triticum aestivum refers to bread (or hexaploid) wheat. Bread wheat contains A, B, and D genoms. The other main group of wheat is durum (or tetraploid) wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum) that contains A and B genomes. This group is generally used for pasta production (Wrigley, 2009). Other minor wheat groups such as T. monococcum ssp. monoccocum and T. timopheevii are cultivated in small quantities on limited regions (Feldman and Sears, 1981). Tetraploid T. turgidum

    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.

However, the origin of the maternal care in the family has remained unclear due to the lack of phylogenetic hypotheses. Another reproductive mode is found in non-caring species whose females smear their eggs before leaving them. They possess pairs of complex organs on the abdominal venter called Pendergrast’s organ (PO) and spread the secretion of this organ onto each egg with their hind legs, which is supposed to provide a protective function against enemies. Some authors claim that the absence of PO may be associated with the presence of maternal care. No study, however, has tested this hypothesis of a correlated evolution between the two traits. Results: We reconstructed the molecular phylogeny of the subfamily Acanthosomatinae using five genetic markers sequenced from 44 species and one subspecies with and without maternal care.

Prosta 290 D/2, 25-385 Kielce, Poland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Simple Summary: Euryommatus mariae is a legendary weevil species in Europe, first described in the 19th century and not collected through the 20th century. Though rediscovered in the 21st century at few localities in Poland, Austria, and Germany, it remains one of the rarest of European weevils, and its biology is unknown. We present the first descriptions of the larva and pupa of E. mariae, and confirm its saproxylic lifestyle. The differences and similarities between immatures of E. mariae and the genera Coryssomerus, Cylindrocopturus and Eulechriopus are discussed, and a list of larval characters common to all Conoderitae is given. The characters of adult postabdomen are described and illustrated for the first time for diagnostic purposes. Our study confirmed the unusual structure of the male endophallus, equipped with an extremely long ejaculatory duct enclosed in a peculiar fibrous conduit, not seen in other weevils. We hypothesize that the extraordinarily long Citation: Gosik, R.; Wanat, M.; Bidas, and spiral spermathecal duct is the female’s evolutionary response to the male’s extremely long M.

Holston Department of Entomology, University of Illinois, Urbana, IL 61801, U.S.A. (e-mail: [email protected]) Michael E. Irwin Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences, University of Illinois, Urbana, IL 61801, U.S.A. (e-mail: [email protected]) F. Christian Thompson Systematic Entomology Laboratory, PSI, BARC, ARS, USDA, do Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560, U.S.A. (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract. The purpose of this application, in relation to Article 67.2 of the Code, is to conserve the usage of the name Thereva Latreille, 1797 for a cosmopolitan genus of stiletto flies (family THEREVIDAE) that currently includes 201 species, and also the usage of Phasia Latreille, 1804 and PHASIINAE for a group of tachinid flies (family TACHINIDAE), some of which are economically important as parasites of plant bugs (Heteroptera). It is proposed that Musca plebeja Linnaeus, 1758 should be designated as the type species of the therevid genus Thereva. M. plebeja was not one of the nominal species that were first associated with the name Thereva by Fabricius (1798). Fabricius used Thereva for a group of tachinid flies that are now referred to by the name Phasia Latreille, 1804. Keywords. Nomenclature; taxonomy; Diptera; THEREVIDAE; TACHINIDAE; Thereva; Phasia; Thereva plebeja; stiletto flies; tachinids. 1.

Abstract: Studies on Pipunculid flies in their natural environment are presented. Certain places are described, which proved to be astonishingly rieh in species. Some remarkable associating insect species are listed. As far as investigated comments on the behaviour of the adult flies are added. Key words: Diptera, Pipunculidae, behaviour, ecology Introduction Pipunculid flies are rather small mostly black insects, developing as parasitoids inside leafhoppers, with the ability of hovering (relationship to Syrphidae) and with enormous compound eyes, useful for males in search for females, and for females in search for a potential victim, a cicad larva. Most specimen of Pipunculidae studied so far were collected by Malaise traps. This material allows to describe the existing species, to secure their systematical stand, and to mark their distribution. Many questions in this chapter are still open. On the other hand the development as parasitoids in leafhoppers show fascinating aspects of adaptations to this life and even has an ecological/economical content regarding pest control.

  • Zum Sommeraspekt Der Zikadenfauna Des Kyffhäusergebirges (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha)
    Beiträge zur Zikadenkunde 9: 15-22 (2007) 15 A food plant study of the Auchenorrhyncha of the Częstochowa upland, southern Poland (Insecta, Hemiptera) Dariusz Świerczewski1 Kurzfassung: Auf der Hochebene von Tschenstochau in Süd-Polen wurde 2004 bis 2006 die Zikadenfauna von 31 Kräuter- und Grasarten untersucht. Das Material umfasst insgesamt 1970 adulte Individuen aus 44 Arten. Für 21 Pflanzenarten werden Zikadengilden beschrieben und diskutiert. Abstract: Auchenorrhyncha were sampled on 31 species of forbs and grasses in the years 2004-2006 in the area of Częstochowa Upland in southern Poland. Altogether, the material includes 1970 adult individuals belonging to 44 species. Auchenorrhyncha guilds for 21 plants are described and discussed. Key words: Hemiptera, Auchenorrhyncha guilds, food plants, Poland 1. Introduction The knowledge of Auchenorrhyncha food plants in Poland, unlike those published recently from Germany (Nickel 2003) or Britain (e.g. Waloff & Solomon 1973; Cook 1996), are far from complete. Smreczyński (1954) and Nast (1976) provided records mainly for arboricolous taxa, i.e. Macropsinae, Idiocerinae, Jassinae and Typhlocybinae, but there is still no information on the food preferences of the bulk of the leafhopper fauna. The aim of this work was to determine Auchenorrhyncha guilds associated with forbs and grasses, which are notable constituents of grasslands on limestone and sandy substrates of the Częstochowa upland in southern Poland. 2. Study area, methods and material A survey was carried out over a 3-year period (2004-2006) near the villages of Olsztyn and Mstów, UTM CB 72, CB 73 (Fig. 1). This region is characterized by Upper Jurassic limestone formations dissected by valleys filled with Pleistocene sands.

  • Les Tachinidae De La Manche
    Les Tachinidae de la Manche : début de l’enquête et première liste (Diptera Brachycera) La famille de mouches que nous allons aborder dans cet article offre le paradoxe d’être à la fois l’une des plus riches en espèces et l’une des plus mal connues des entomologistes. Discrètes, souvent de petite taille et peu colorées, elles passent facilement inaperçues. Totalement ignorées du profane, elles n’ont reçu aucun nom vernaculaire et c’est à peine si les guides de vulgarisation représentent quelques espèces, 6 par exemple dans CHINERY (1986) contre 22 syrphes, famille d’ampleur comparable, soit moins de 1% de la faune européenne !

HAUPT (1998), dont l’éditeur suisse annonce sans vergogne en couverture « l’identification des espèces européennes », illustre 13 espèces, soit 1,5% de la faune d’Europe. Il est certain que l’ampleur de la tâche a pu rebuter les diptéristes de notre pays, d’autant plus qu’aujourd’hui encore aucun ouvrage complet de détermination n’est actuellement disponible en langue française. Et pourtant ces mouches ne manquent pas d’attrait ! De nombreuses espèces sont d’une taille respectable, sous la loupe beaucoup même offrent un aspect séduisant par leurs couleurs veloutées, leurs reflets pruineux, leur système organisé de poils et de soies, toutes surtout ont une biologie complexe, captivante et encore mal étudiée. Pour tout dire, cette enquête limitée à la Manche (voir L’Argiope No 67) s’annonce passionnante car la page est totalement vierge et le champ de recherche immense. Bien sûr, les obstacles sont tels que l’inventaire devra être abordé avec prudence.
