Adoxophyes Honmai Yasuda (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) in Tea Fields of Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan Resistance to diamides, a new class of insecticides, in the smaller tea tortrix Adoxophyes honmai Yasuda (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) in tea fields of Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan Toru Uchiyama and Akihito Ozawa Tea Research Center, Shizuoka Res. Inst. of Agric. and For., 1706-11 Kurasawa, Kikugawa, Shizuoka 439-0002, Japan Correspondence email: [email protected] Summary We conducted a 6-year study (2006–2011) for investigating the susceptibility of the smaller tea tortrix Adoxophes honmai Yasuda to the diamide insecticides, namely, flubendiamide and chlorantraniliprole in the Shimada-Yui tea fields in the Makinihara area of Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. The corrected mortality of the insect populations to the two diamide insecticides at 10 days after treatment at 2000 dilution (representing an ordinary dose) indicated that mortality after practical application of the insecticides at this dose was limited. The LC50 values of flubendiamide showed a rapid annual increase from 2007 (16.2 ppm) to 2011 August (161 ppm), exceeding the registration dose of 100 ppm from 2010 onward. Further, the LC50 values of chlorantraniliprole increased sharply from 2010 (25.3 ppm) to 2011 August (98.8 ppm), exceeding the registration dose of 50 ppm in 2011. In the pest control calendar, the accumulation adoption number exceeded LC50 at 10 days after the release of A. honmai larvae by three and two times, respectively, for flubendiamide and chlorantraniliprole. Introduction Shizuoka Prefecture is the most important tea-producing district in Japan. However, in recent years, the smaller tea tortrix Adoxophes honmai Yasuda has begun to cause serious damage to tea leaves. The reduced effect of diacylhydrazine (DAH) analogs insect growth regulators (IGRs) at controlling in A. honmai was initially observed by tea famers in around 2004. We investigated the susceptibility of A. honmai to DAH analog IGRs in tea fields in the Makinohara area of Shizuoka Prefecture. Consequently, we elucidated the level of resistance of A. honmai to DAH analog IGRs from 2005 onward (Uchyama et al., 2013, Fig. 1). In addition, over the same timeframe, we investigated the susceptibility of A. honmai to diamide insecticides, which is a new class of insecticide with different chemistry, which had previously been reported to have excellent controlling effect on lepidopteran pests, including A. honmai. To our knowledge, the current study is the first to report a high level of resistance by Fig. 1. Annual changes in the LC resistance ratio of A. honmai to two diamide insecticides, namely, 50 Adoxophyes honmai larvae to 4 insect growth regulator flubendiamide and chlorantraniliprole, based on the (IGR) insecticides. Tested populations were collected data collected from 2006 to 2011. annually from tea fields at Shimada-Yui in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. Dotted lines indicate regression lines. Materials and methods Insects. From 2006 to 2011, seven successive populations of A. honmai were collected from adjoining tea fields in Shimada-Yui, located in the Makinohara area of Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. More than 20 adult females were collected from each A. honmai population to obtain egg masses. The insects were reared in groups, on an artificial diet (Insecta LFS, Nihon-Nosan Kogyo Co. Ltd., Yokohama, Japan), in an insectary at 25 °C under a 16-h light:8-h dark photoperiod. F1 or F2 larvae were used for the bioassays. A susceptible strain (Kanaya) to the insecticides was used as a control. 1 Leaf dipping bioassay. The leaf dipping bioassay method was used to test the susceptibility of A. honmai to the two diamide insecticides, namely, flubendiamide and chlorantraniliprole. The insecticides were mixed with tap water to generate 4–6 serial dilutions. The tea leaves were collected from the tea field of our center where pesticides are not used. The leaves were dipped in the insecticide solution for 10 s and dried on paper. Then, 6–7 treated leaves were transferred to a styrol cup containing a layer of filter paper. Afterward, ten 2nd or 3rd A. honmai instar larvae were placed in the cups, which were covered using a cap. All treatments were repeated three times. The cups were stored at 25 °C and a 16L:8D h photoperiod. Larvae were scored for mortality after eight and 10 days. Results and discussion 1. The corrected mortality of flubendiamde at 10 days after treatment by using 2000 and 8000 dilutions were both lower in August 2011 than in 2007 for the Shimada-Yui A. honmai populations (Table 1). The corrected mortality of chlorantraniliprole was also lower at 10 days after treatment by using the above two dilutions in August 2011 than in 2010 (Table 1). The corrected mortality of A. honmai for the two diamide insecticides at 10 days after treatment by using the 2000 dilution (representing an ordinary dose) indicated Table 1.

    Phylogeny, evolution and speciation of Choristoneura and Tortricidae (Lepidoptera) by Giovanny Fagua González A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Systematics and Evolution Department of Biological Sciences University of Alberta © Giovanny Fagua González, 2017 Abstract Leafrollers moths are one of the most ecologically and economically important groups of herbivorous insects. These Lepidoptera are an ideal model for exploring the drivers that modulate the processes of diversification over time. This thesis analyzes the evolution of Choristoneura Lederer, a well known genus because of its pest species, in the general context of the evolution of Tortricidae. It takes an inductive view, starting with analysis of phylogenetic, biogeographic and diversification processes in the family Tortricidae, which gives context for studying these processes in the genus Choristoneura. Tectonic dynamics and niche availability play intertwined roles in determining patterns of diversification; such drivers explain the current distribution of many clades, whereas events like the rise of angiosperms can have more specific impacts, such as on the diversification rates of herbivores. Tortricidae are a diverse group suited for testing the effects of these determinants on the diversification of herbivorous clades. To estimate ancestral areas and diversification patterns in Tortricidae, a complete tribal-level dated tree was inferred using molecular markers and calibrated using fossil constraints. The time-calibrated phylogeny estimated that Tortricidae diverged ca. 120 million years ago (Mya) and diversified ca. 97 Mya, a timeframe synchronous with the rise of angiosperms in the Early-Mid Cretaceous. Ancestral areas analysis supports a Gondwanan origin of Tortricidae in the South American plate.

To further understand the pathology of AdhoNPV, its genome was completely sequenced and compared with those of other baculoviruses. The AdhoNPV genome is 113,220 bp, with a G ϩ C content of 35.6%. It contains 125 putative open reading frames (ORFs), of which 8 are unique to AdhoNPV, and 4 homologous regions. The other 117 ORFs display similarity to previously characterized baculovirus genes involved in early and late gene expression, DNA replication, and structural and auxiliary functions. The phylogenetic position of AdhoNPV, in relation to 15 other baculoviruses whose genomes have been completely sequenced, was assessed by three different analyses: gene sequence, gene order, and gene content. Although gene content analysis failed to support the group II NPVs, phylogenetic trees based on gene sequence and gene order showed AdhoNPV to be closely related to the group II NPVs.

The incidence of clinically-defined influenza was lower in the green tea gargling group (13.5%) in the Full analysis set (FAS) population, 13.8% in the Per protocol set (PPS) population based on adherence rate >75%) than in the water group (16.8% in the FAS population, and 18.4% in the PPS population). However this difference was not significant in multivariate logistic regression analysis, and Cox proportional hazards regression. Additional large-scale randomized-controlled studies with high adherence rate are needed to evaluate the effects of green tea gargling as a preventive measure for influenza infection. Introduction Non-pharmaceutical interventions have an essential role to prevent epidemics and pandemics of influenza added to the pharmaceutical interventions as vaccination and neuraminidase inhibitors. Gargling is one of the common preventive measures in Asian countries, and several experimental studies have shown that anti influenza virus activities of green tea components in vitro (Nakayama, et al. 1993; Steinmann, et al.
