Soutenue le 20 juin 1995 devant la commission d’examen : NARDON Paul Prof. INSA de Lyon Directeur thèse LEGAY Jean-Marie Prof. UCB Lyon 1 Président GATEHOUSE Angharad Res. Fellow - Univ. Durham (GB) Rapporteur BOURNOVILLE René DR INRA Rapporteur ROUGE Pierre Prof. UPS Toulouse Rapporteur RAHBE Yvan CR INRA RIBA Guy DR INRA Résumé Nous avons recherché des protéines toxiques pour les pucerons (Homoptères, insectes piqueurs-suceurs phloémophages) et étudié le mode d'action de certaines d’entre elles. Ce travail constitue une première étape d'un programme de création de plantes résistantes aux pucerons par génie génétique. Les caractéristiques toxicologiques de nombreuses protéines sont évaluées par des tests d’ingestion sur milieux artificiels définis. Des lectines d’origine végétale se liant au mannose présentent des propriétés toxiques intéressantes. Notre étude porte sur la Concanavaline A (lectine de Canavalia ensiformis [L.] DC, ConA) qui est une lectine modèle très étudiée du point de vue biochimique, et la lectine du perce-neige (Galanthus nivalis L., GNA) dont les caractéristiques en font un bon candidat à l'application envisagée. Nous mettons en évidence une variabilité de la toxicité des lectines à mannose chez six espèces de pucerons. La ConA est moins active sur les espèces polyphages. Elle n’est pas phagorépulsive pour notre puceron modèle, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) et agit en quelques heures aux doses moyennes, notamment en inhibant l’ingestion. Une adaptation comportementale à moyen terme (24 h-48 h) est également mise en évidence. Des techniques de marquage révèlent que la cible physiologique primaire de la ConA est la portion antérieure du mésentéron. Elle s’y fixe en très grande quantité. Après liaison aux cellules épithéliales, la lectine induit une hypertrophie de ces cellules et un détachement de leur membrane apicale. Des expériences de compétition lectines/mannosides indiquent que la liaison toxine- épithélium ne semble pas dépendre uniquement d’une interaction sucre-lectine. Nous observons également une forte perturbation du métabolisme des acides aminés des pucerons. Le mode d’action de la ConA et de la GNA diffèrent sensiblement sur ce point. Les premiers tests biologiques effectués sur des pommes de terre transgéniques exprimant de manière constitutive le gène de la GNA sont variables mais prometteurs. Abstract The aim of this study is to identify proteins that are deleterious to aphids (Homoptera; Aphididae), and to determine the mechanisms of action of some of them. This work is a first step in a defence strategy against aphids based upon the use of transgenic plants expressing such toxic plant proteins. Amongst the molecules tested, two mannose-binding lectins, ConA and GNA, from jackbean (Canavalia ensiformis) and snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis) respectively, induced significant mortality and growth inhibitory effects on aphid nymphal development; these were thus chosen for subsequent investigations. Dose-response curves of mannose binding lectins were shown to differ substantially between the six aphid species tested. At sub-lethal doses GNA and ConA adversely affected total fecundity and the dynamics of reproduction of both pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris), and peach-potato aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer. ConA acted as an antifeedant, but not as a feeding deterrent. On the model aphid A. pisum, high levels of ConA significantly altered ingestion rates, but at moderate levels, insects appeared to exhibit a time-dependent tolerance of the antifeedant. The stomach and anterior part of the midgut were shown to be the primary physiological targets of ConA. As a result of its binding to epithelial cells, the lectin was shown to induce hypertrophic growth of these cells and subsequent shedding of the membrane surface. Competitive experiments with different mannosides suggested that this interaction appeared not to be simply a consequence of binding of the lectin to mannose residues. Both ConA and GNA caused distinct disturbances in the steady-state levels of free amino acids in the aphid, but the effects of the two lectins differed significantly from each other. Effects of lectins are discussed in relation to the use of transgenic plants expressing such toxic proteins for potential control of aphid populations. 2 Avant-propos Mes premiers remerciements s'adresseront au Professeur Paul Nardon, directeur du laboratoire de Biologie Appliquée (INRA-INSA) de Lyon, qui m'a accueilli dans son laboratoire.

    Entomol. Croat. 2011, Vol. 15. Num. 1-4: 177-183 Proceedings of the XXII Symposium Internationale Entomofaunisticum Europae Centralis THE APHID FAUNA (Hemiptera: Aphidoidea) OF WATERMELONS Tanja GOTLIN ČULJAK1, Katja ŽANIĆ2, Smiljana GORETA BAN2, Dean BAN3, Gvozden DUMIČIĆ2 & Dinka GRUBIŠIĆ1 1Faculty of Agriculture, University of Zagreb, Svetošimunska cesta 25, 10000, Zagreb Croatia; [email protected] 2 Institute for Adriatic Crops and Karst Reclamation, Put Duilova 11, 21000, Split , Croatia 3 Institute of Agriculture and Tourism, Carla Huguesa 8, 52440 Poreč, Croatia Accepted: December 19th 2011 In this paper the fauna of aphids appearing on watermelons in the area of the Neretva valley is presented. Not only do they feed on the plants, but aphids can transmit virus diseases. The natural spread of aphid transmitted cucurbit viruses is often accomplished by Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris), Aphis craccivora Koch, Aphis gossypii Glover and Myzus persicae (Sulzer). Aphid- transmitted viruses in cucurbits have been poorly investigated in Croatia, although Cucumber mosaic cucumovirus (CMV) sporadically occurs on cucurbits. The aim of this study was to investigate and identify aphid species in a watermelon field. The field experiment with watermelons [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum & Nakai] was conducted during 2004 and 2005 at Opuzen (43°00’N, 17°34’E, 3 m elevation), located in the Mediterranean area of Croatia. Opuzen is situated in the delta of the river Neretva River, the most important watermelon-growing area in Croatia. Aphid sampling was carried out using yellow water traps (70x70x12 cm). Traps were installed at the date of transplanting and observed daily in order to determine initial aphid flight prior to the first sampling.

  • Population Genetics in Biological Control: Cryptic Species, Host-Associations, and the Geographic Mosaic of Coevolution
    Population Genetics in Biological Control: Cryptic Species, Host-associations, and the Geographic Mosaic of Coevolution By Jeremy C Andersen A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science Policy and Management in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Nicholas J. Mills, Chair Professor George K. Roderick Professor Rasmus Nielsen Spring 2015 ABSTRACT Population Genetics in Biological Control: Cryptic Species, Host-associations, and the Geographic Mosaic of Coevolution by Jeremy C Andersen Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science Policy and Management University of California, Berkeley Professor Nicholas J Mills, Chair In this dissertation I expand upon our knowledge in regards to the utility of population genetic approaches to be used for the study of the evolution of introduced biological control agents and their target pests. If biological control methods are to provide sustainable pest management services then more long-term studies will be necessary, and these studies should also include the use of population genetic approaches. For existing biological control programs, post-release population genetic studies could be initiated using museum voucher specimens for baseline data. In Chapter 2, I explored what factors influence our ability to extract usable genomic material from dried museum specimens, and whether we could use non-destructive techniques for parasitic hymenoptera. I found that the age of the specimen was the most important determinant for the amplification of PCR products, with nuclear loci having a higher probability of amplification from older specimens than mitochondrial loci. With these sequence results I was able to differentiate voucher specimens of different strains of the biological control agent Trioxys pallidus and I was able to confirm the identification of an unknown parasitoid reared from the invasive light brown apple moth.

Aphididae, Myzocallis walshii, Quercus, parasitoids, expansion, Czech Republic, exotic insects Abstract. Myzocallis (Lineomyzocallis) walshii (Monell), a North American aphid species associated with Quercus rubra was detected for the first time in Europe in 1988 (France), and subsequently in several other countries – Switzerland, Spain, Andorra, Italy, Belgium and Germany. Recent research in 2003–2005 recorded this aphid occurring throughout the Czech Republic. The only host plant was Quercus rubra. The highest aphid populations occurred in old parks and road line groves in urban areas, whereas the populations in forests were low. The seasonal occurrence of the light spring form and the darker summer form of M. (Lineomyzocal- lis) walshii as well as their different population peaks were noted. Four native parasitoids species [Praon flavinode (Haliday), Tri- oxys curvicaudus Mackauer, T. pallidus Haliday and T. tenuicaudus (Starý)] were reared from M. (Lineomyzocallis) walshii.

  • Toxicity of Some Commonly Used Pesticides to Trioxys Pallidus and Its Establishment in Filbert Orchards of Willamette Valley
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Mohammad Saeed for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology presented on July 25 1989. Title: Toxicity of Some Commonly Used Pesticides to Trioxys pallidus and Its Establishment in Filbert Orchards of Willamette Valley. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Dr. M. T. AliNiazee A parasitic wasp, Trioxys pallidus Haliday (Hymenoptera: Aphidiidae) was imported from Europe and initially released against the filbert aphid Myzocallis coryli (Goetze) in hazelnut (filbert) orchards of the Willamette Valley, Oregon beginning in 1984. In the present study, I investigated the establishment rates of this parasitoid. A total of 13 orchards in 1987 and 30 orchards in 1988 were sampled twice per year. Five to ten trees were selected at random in each orchard and these trees were sampled by collecting and examining ten twigs per tree and counting the number of aphids and aphid mummies on four leaves per twig. The rate of parasitization was calculated by Total No. of mummies / Total No. of aphids + mummies X 100. Data show that the parasitoid has established in many commercial orchards and out of the total of 30 orchards studied eleven had breeding population of Trioxys pallidus and that is rapidly moving to adjoining orchards. The parasitoid appears to have survived the standard insecticide applications in commercial orchards. The level of resistance of a field collected population of Trioxys pallidus to the most commonly used pesticides in the filbert system including Metasystox-R, Pydrin, Zolone, Diazinon, and Lorsban was determined. Adult parasitoid populations continuously exposed to Pydrin (2 sprays per year) and carbaryl (1 sprayper year) since 1985, were collected near Corvallis, Benton County, Oregon and their response to various insecticides was assessed.

  • A Review of the Species of Aphelinus Dalman, 1820 (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) from Georgia
    J. Ent. Res. Soc., 11(3): 41-52, 2009 ISSN:1302-0250 A Review of the Species of Aphelinus Dalman, 1820 (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) from Georgia George JAPOSHVILI¹ İsmail KARACA² ¹Department of Plant Protection, Faculty of Agriculture, Süleyman Demirel University, Isparta, TURKEY, e-mail: [email protected] ² Department of Plant Protection, Faculty of Agriculture, Süleyman Demirel University, Isparta, TURKEY, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The aphelinid genus Aphelinus Dalman is defined by means of a brief diagnosis. Two species (A. babaneuri Japoshvili and A. yasnoshae Japoshvili) are described as new. Distribution, synonyms and host information, where available, are given for each species treated. A key to the females of all 14 known Georgian species is provided. Key words: Aphelinus, Fauna, Key, Aphelinidae, New species, Georgia. INTRODUCTION Among the Hymenoptera Parasitica, the Aphelinidae (Chalcidoidea) represents an interesting group including 32 genera and a little over a thousand species (Hayat, 1998). Members of the Aphelinidae are parasitoids of Hemiptera, Orthoptera, Hymenoptera, Diptera, and Lepidoptera. A majority of the species are parasitic upon Hemiptera in the families of Coccoidea, Aleyrodoidea and Aphidoidea (Yasnosh, 1995). Several species have been successfully used, even recently, in classical biocontrol projects (Nikolskaya & Yasnosh, 1966; Chervonenko, 1997; Viggiani, 2004). Genus Aphelinus are parasitoids of a group of sap-sucking insects belonging to the superfamily Aphidoidea (Hemiptera). The economic importance of Aphids is quite considerable on all kind of plants. They damage many horticultural, forest and fruit plants. Aphids are the cause of leaf distortion and flagging terminals. Infested plants have reduced growth and vigour. With severe infestations, leaf yellowing and twig dieback may occur.

(Email: [email protected]) Abstract In Kyiv and the Kyiv region (Ukraine) during 2015-2017, 47 species of aphids (Aphididae) were found on 18 native species of plants-phanerophytes and for 9 invasive plant species, 14 aphid species were found. Native species of plants-phanerophytes were visited by 19 species of ants (Formicidae) and invasive plant species by 16 species of ants. Only one aphid species (Aphis craccivora Koch) found on invasive plant species was invasive. Most species of invasive phanerophytes are not very attractive for ants, since they are practically not populated by aphids (Acer negundo, Amorpha fruticosa). Some tree species are inhabited by aphids only at the beginning of their life cycle (Padus serotina). Only some species of invasive plants (Quercus rubra, Salix fragilis) can be infested with aphids throughout their life cycle, and accordingly, are visited by ants.

We have indicated plant communities and plant species most affected by aphids and the least. for example pear, elderberry, maple and jasmine were among those most affected by aphids, and acacia was not. This should be taken into account for aesthetic reasons when arranging parks. The density of buildings turned out Citation: Barczak, T.; Bennewicz, J.; to be the factor that differentiated the most from aphids.
