  • Developing Biodiverse Green Roofs for Japan: Arthropod and Colonizer Plant Diversity on Harappa and Biotope Roofs
    20182018 Green RoofsUrban and Naturalist Urban Biodiversity SpecialSpecial Issue No. Issue 1:16–38 No. 1 A. Nagase, Y. Yamada, T. Aoki, and M. Nomura URBAN NATURALIST Developing Biodiverse Green Roofs for Japan: Arthropod and Colonizer Plant Diversity on Harappa and Biotope Roofs Ayako Nagase1,*, Yoriyuki Yamada2, Tadataka Aoki2, and Masashi Nomura3 Abstract - Urban biodiversity is an important ecological goal that drives green-roof in- stallation. We studied 2 kinds of green roofs designed to optimize biodiversity benefits: the Harappa (extensive) roof and the Biotope (intensive) roof. The Harappa roof mimics vacant-lot vegetation. It is relatively inexpensive, is made from recycled materials, and features community participation in the processes of design, construction, and mainte- nance. The Biotope roof includes mainly native and host plant species for arthropods, as well as water features and stones to create a wide range of habitats. This study is the first to showcase the Harappa roof and to compare biodiversity on Harappa and Biotope roofs. Arthropod species richness was significantly greater on the Biotope roof. The Harappa roof had dynamic seasonal changes in vegetation and mainly provided habitats for grassland fauna. In contrast, the Biotope roof provided stable habitats for various arthropods. Herein, we outline a set of testable hypotheses for future comparison of these different types of green roofs aimed at supporting urban biodiversity. Introduction Rapid urban growth and associated anthropogenic environmental change have been identified as major threats to biodiversity at a global scale (Grimm et al. 2008, Güneralp and Seto 2013). Green roofs can partially compensate for the loss of green areas by replacing impervious rooftop surfaces and thus, contribute to urban biodiversity (Brenneisen 2006).

Received: 27 March 2014; in revised form: 20 May 2014 / Accepted: 23 May 2014 / Published: 19 June 2014 Abstract: Female moths are known to detect their own sex pheromone—a phenomenon called “autodetection”. Autodetection has various effects on female moth behavior, including altering natural circadian rhythm of calling behavior, inducing flight, and in some cases causing aggregations of conspecifics. A proposed hypothesis for the possible evolutionary benefits of autodetection is its possible role as a spacing mechanism to reduce female-female competition. Here, we explore autodetection in two species of tortricids (Grapholita molesta (Busck) and Choristoneura rosaceana (Harris)). We find that females of both species not only “autodetect,” but that learning (change in behavior following experience) occurs, which affects behavior for at least 24 hours after pheromone pre-exposure. Specifically, female calling in both species is advanced at least 24 hours, but not 5 days, following pheromone pre-exposure.

  • Pheromonal Control of Diamondback Moth in the Management of Crucifer Pests H
    10 Pheromonal Control of Diamondback Moth in the Management of Crucifer Pests H. Nemoto, E. Yano1, and K. Kiritani2 Saitama Horticultural Experiment Station, Kuki-shi, Saitama 346, Japan, ‘Science and Technology Agency, Kasumigaseki, Tokyo 100, Japan, 2FFTC/ASPAC Taipei, Taiwan, ROC Abstract The effect of delayed mating on the reproductive potential of the diamondback moth, P lutella xylostella (L.), population was evaluated in the laboratory. The insecticide- resistant diamondback moth could be controlled by synthetic sex pheromones which are not harmful to beneficial species. However, the pheromones had no effect on other pests like aphids and common cabbageworm. Predators crawling on the ground, like lycosid spiders, played an important role as a biotic mortality agent of immature stages of diamondback moth. The chitin synthesis inhibitors that are selective insecticides were very effective on caterpillars like the common cabbageworm. Pheromone and chitin synthesis inhibitors which are harmless to beneficial arthropods are regarded as main chemicals acceptable in management of crucifer pests. Introduction The main drawbacks in insecticidal control of diamondback moth (DBM), Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae), are: (1) development of insecticide resistance; (2) resurgence of the insect after applications of insecticide; (3) nonselective killing of harmless and beneficial species (Nemoto 1986). Synthetic sex pheromones have been utilized to suppress insect pest populations through either disruption of communication between the sexes or mass trapping of adult males. The efficacy of the pheromone is frequently measured by making comparisons between the percentage of tethered virgin females that mate in treated and control plots (Nemoto et al. 1985). In this paper, we present a converted Kiritani and Kanoh’s equation (ER) and attempt to evaluate the effect of delayed mating on the reproductive potential of the DBM population by laboratory experiment.

The following diseases were found in the sweet persimmon orchards: angular leaf spot (Cercospora kaki), anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Colletotrichum acutatum), circular leaf spot (Mycosphaerella nawae), powdery mildew (Phyllactinia kakicola), and gray mold (Botrytis cinerea). Circular leaf spot was the most frequent and serious disease, and C. gloeosporioides and C. acutatum were found on fruits. Thirty-three insect pest species that belonged to 32 genera of 20 families in 5 orders were found in the sweet persimmon orchards; the two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, was also found in the surveyed orchards.

  • Tebufenozide Resistance in the Smaller Tea Tortrix, Adoxophyes
    Applied Entomology and Zoology https://doi.org/10.1007/s13355-019-00616-2 ORIGINAL RESEARCH PAPER Tebufenozide resistance in the smaller tea tortrix, Adoxophyes honmai (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae): establishment of a molecular diagnostic method based on EcR mutation and its application for feld‑monitoring Miwa Uchibori‑Asano1 · Toru Uchiyama2 · Akiya Jouraku1 · Akihito Ozawa2 · Gaku Akiduki3 · Kohji Yamamura4 · Tetsuro Shinoda1 Received: 27 August 2018 / Accepted: 7 March 2019 © The Author(s) 2019 Abstract The smaller tea tortrix, Adoxophyes honmai Yasuda (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), is one of the main insect pests of tea, Camellia sinensis Kuntz, in Japan. Recently, A. honmai has developed a high resistance to diacylhydrazine analog insect growth regulators, such as tebufenozide, in Shizuoka Prefecture. Previously, we identifed a point mutation (A415V) in the ecdysone receptor gene (EcR), a candidate factor responsible for tebufenozide resistance. In this study, we have developed a molecular method of diagnosis to detect the EcR A415V mutation by polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP). This method was confrmed to be successfully applicable to larvae reared in the laboratory and adults collected by pheromone traps in the feld. The appearance ratio of the resistant allele in the A. honmai populations from various Japanese districts examined by the method revealed a high correlation with the magnitude of tebufenozide resistance. These results verifed that the A415V mutation is the principal factor responsible
