INNS are increasingly abundant in Great Britain and in Europe generally and their impact is rising. Hence, INNS are the subject of considerable concern in Great Britain, prompting the development of a Non-Native Species Strategy and the formation of the GB Non-Native Species Programme Board and Secretariat.

  • Hessian Fly, Mayetiola Destructor (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), Smart-Trap Design and Deployment Strategies
    Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), smart-trap design and deployment strategies by Ryan B. Schmid B.S., South Dakota State University, 2011 M.S., South Dakota State University, 2014 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Entomology College of Agriculture KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2018 Abstract Timely enactment of insect pest management and incursion mitigation protocols requires development of time-sensitive monitoring approaches. Numerous passive monitoring methods exist (e.g., insect traps), which offer an efficient solution to monitoring for pests across large geographic regions. However, given the number of different monitoring tools, from specific (e.g., pheromone lures) to general (e.g., sticky cards), there is a need to develop protocols for deploying methods to effectively and efficiently monitor for a multitude of potential pests. The non-random movement of the Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), toward several visual, chemical, and tactile cues, makes it a suitable study organism to examine new sensor technologies and deployment strategies that can be tailored for monitoring specific pests. Therefore, the objective was to understand Hessian fly behavior toward new sensor technologies (i.e., light emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser displays) to develop monitoring and deployment strategies. A series of laboratory experiments and trials were conducted to understand how

Tunisie. Accepted 11 April, 2005 Inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) polymorphism was used to reveal genetic variability and phylogenetic relationships within and between three haplotypes of Mayetiola species. A set of 14 ISSR primers were screened representing di-, tri, tetra and penta-nucleotide repeats out of which 10 generated scorable bands and three were able to distinguish one of three haplotypes. The consensus tree constructed using binary data from banding patterns generated by ISSR-PCR clustered the two Mayetiola species according to their mitochondrial haplotype. Moreover, genetic diversity estimated by the coefficient of variation indicates a high intra and inter-haplotypes polymorphism. Our results indicate that ISSR can be useful as DNA-based molecular markers for studying genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships of Mayetiola haplotypes. Keywords: Genetic diversity, ISSR markers, Mayetiola, haplotypes. INTRODUCTION Microsatellites orsimple sequence repeats (SSRs) are the repeats themselves, rather than in flanking regions short DNA sequences tandemly arranged. They are (Zietkiewicz et al., 1994). The generated PCR products highly polymorphic and widely distributed in the reveal polymorphic patterns on a single high resolution eukaryotic genome (Tautz, 1989).

  • Insect Derived Extra Oral GH32 Plays a Role in Susceptibility of Wheat to Hessian Fy Subhashree Subramanyam1,2*, Jill A
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Insect derived extra oral GH32 plays a role in susceptibility of wheat to Hessian fy Subhashree Subramanyam1,2*, Jill A. Nemacheck1,2, Victor Bernal‑Crespo3 & Nagesh Sardesai4 The Hessian fy is an obligate parasite of wheat causing signifcant economic damage, and triggers either a resistant or susceptible reaction. However, the molecular mechanisms of susceptibility leading to the establishment of the larvae are unknown. Larval survival on the plant requires the establishment of a steady source of readily available nutrition. Unlike other insect pests, the Hessian fy larvae have minute mandibles and cannot derive their nutrition by chewing tissue or sucking phloem sap. Here, we show that the virulent larvae produce the glycoside hydrolase MdesGH32 extra‑orally, that localizes within the leaf tissue being fed upon. MdesGH32 has strong inulinase and invertase activity aiding in the breakdown of the plant cell wall inulin polymer into monomers and converting sucrose, the primary transport sugar in plants, to glucose and fructose, resulting in the formation of a nutrient‑rich tissue. Our fnding elucidates the molecular mechanism of nutrient sink formation and establishment of susceptibility. Signifcant global economic damage is caused by the infestation of maize, wheat and rice by insect pests, resulting in annual production losses ranging from around 45–75 metric megatons1. While there are several factors that play crucial roles in defense, the plant cell wall, composed of a heterogeneous mixture of high-molecular weight complex polysaccharides such as cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin, and diverse proteins, in addition to provid- ing structural support, is the primary line of defense against pests 2.

Wise Cereal Research Centre, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada 195 Dafoe Road, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3T 2M9 Contribution Number 1970 from the Cereal Research Centre, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. ABSTRact Six species of Hymenoptera were found as parasitoids of the Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say), in the Red River Valley of Manitoba in 2003-2005. These parasitoids were the main cause of pupal mortality. Platygaster hiemalis Forbes and a Homoporus spp. mostly parasitized only first generation Hessian flies.Pediobius eubius (Walker), Aprostocetus zosimus (Walker), Trichomalopsis americana (Gahan), and Panstenon poaphilum Heydon mostly attacked second generation flies. All parasitoid species appeared to be univoltine on the Hessian fly. In 2003-2005, 18-28% of first genera- tion flies and 73-79% of the second generation were parasitized in experimental plots. Parasitism of second generation flies in commercial fields in 2005 was 68-85%.Platy - gaster hiemalis was the most abundant parasitoid of the first generation andP . eubius of second generation flies. The prevalence ofP . eubius was greater than the total of all other parasitoid species at all sites in all years. About 25% of adult parasitoids emerged in August after completing one generation in Hessian flies. This late season emergence occurred for all six species, but was least likely for P. hiemalis. A further 15-35% of all parasitoids died as larvae or pupae. This study is the first documented record of P.
