SYSTEMATICS of the MEGADIVERSE SUPERFAMILY GELECHIOIDEA (INSECTA: LEPIDOPTEA) DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of T
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. -
CELERIAC Pronounced Sel-AIR-Ee-Ack, This Root Veggie Is Related to Parsley, Carrots and Parsnips
CELERIAC Pronounced sel-AIR-ee-ack, this root veggie is related to parsley, carrots and parsnips. Although it is also known as “celery root,” it is not the root of the celery we all know. BEST COOKING RECIPE IDEAS METHODS STORAGE • SOUP • ROASTED • THINLY SLICED • Trim off stalks and refrigerate • MASHED IN SALAD unwashed, covered for up to 3 • RAW • MASH months! • BRAISED • GRATIN • Can be stored in a cool, dry place for up to a month. NUTRITION TIPS • Good source of Vitamin C, • Add to mashed potatoes for a new take on phosphorus, and potassium. the old standard. • It should be peeled, and otherwise treated similarly to a potato, but unlike a potato is very low in starch. • Celeriac should feel heavy when you pick it up, not light or soft to the touch. WINTER ROOT VEGETABLE SLAW • 1 tsp Dijon mustard • 1 tsp salt • 1 tsp sugar • 1/4 c sherry or red wine vinegar • 1 c chopped parsley, loosely packed • 2/3 c olive oil • 2 large carrots (choose different colored carrots if you can fi nd them) • 2 medium parsnips • 1 small celery root • 2 black radishes or 1/2 daikon radish ***THE CHOICE OF ROOT VEGETABLES HERE WORKS WELL, BUT YOU ARE FREE TO MIX AND MATCH. JUST BE SURE TO NOT HAVE TOO MANY SWEET VEGETABLES LIKE CARROTS AND PARSNIPS, OR TOO MANY SHARP ONES, LIKE RADISHES OR TURNIPS.*** WHISK THE MUSTARD, SALT, SUGAR, VINEGAR AND PARSLEY IN A BOWL AND PROCESS UNTIL COMBINED, ABOUT 30 SECONDS. DRIZZLE IN THE OLIVE OIL SLOWLY, CONTINUE WHISKING UNTIL EMULSIFIED. -
Activation of Defense Mechanisms Against Pathogens in Mosses and Flowering Plants

Received: 4 January 2013; in revised form: 23 January 2013 / Accepted: 23 January 2013 / Published: 4 February 2013 Abstract: During evolution, plants have developed mechanisms to cope with and adapt to different types of stress, including microbial infection. Once the stress is sensed, signaling pathways are activated, leading to the induced expression of genes with different roles in defense. Mosses (Bryophytes) are non-vascular plants that diverged from flowering plants more than 450 million years ago, allowing comparative studies of the evolution of defense-related genes and defensive metabolites produced after microbial infection. The ancestral position among land plants, the sequenced genome and the feasibility of generating targeted knock-out mutants by homologous recombination has made the moss Physcomitrella patens an attractive model to perform functional studies of plant genes involved in stress responses. This paper reviews the current knowledge of inducible defense mechanisms in P. patens and compares them to those activated in flowering plants after pathogen assault, including the reinforcement of the cell wall, ROS production, programmed cell death, activation of defense genes and synthesis of secondary metabolites and defense hormones. -

Powdery Mildew – a New Disease of Carrots
SEPTEMBER 2009 PRIMEFACT 616 SECOND EDITION Powdery mildew – a new disease of carrots Andrew Watson management strategies for carrot powdery mildew”. The project is due to finish in 2011. Plant Pathologist, Plant Health Sciences, Yanco Agricultural Institute The project is based in the three states that have recorded the disease i.e.. New South Wales, Powdery mildew has been found on a carrot crops Tasmania and South Australia. The collaborators in in three states of Australia. The first finding of the Tasmania include Hoong Pung (Peracto Pty Ltd.) disease was in the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area and in South Australia , Barbara Hall (Sardi).

It has This project is looking at the spread of powdery subsequently been found in Tasmania and South mildew on carrots and best methods of managing Australia in 2008. While the organism causing the the disease using fungicides, varietal resistance disease is commonly found in parsnip crops, (where available) and softer alternatives. powdery mildew has not previously been recorded on carrots in Australia. Fungicide options. Cause Fungicide trials in New South Wales and Tasmania have shown that applications of sulphur The causal agent is Erysiphe heraclei, the same successfully controls the disease as do Amistar and fungus that affects parsnips and other members of Folicur. The latter products have a permit for the Apiaceae family. Preliminary information has powdery mildew control. Sulphur has a general indicated that this form of E. heraclei does not infect vegetable registration. However alternative products parsnip or parsley, indicating that it may be specific need to be investigated as resistance to fungicides to carrots. -
