En premier, je souhaite remercier Frédéric Normand, sans qui ce projet de thèse n’aurait pas pu se concrétiser. Pendant mon volontariat civil au sein son équipe, l’idée d’une thèse est lancée sur cette petite cécidomyie dont on ne sait pas grand-chose. Sans sa persévérance et son soutien, ce projet n’aurait certainement jamais abouti. Merci aussi pour ton encadrement et ton implication au quotidien, pour m’avoir fait découvrir la culture du manguier et ses particularités, et pour tes qualités humaines qui m’ont fait tant apprécier le travail au sein de ton équipe pendant plus de cinq ans ! En deuxième, je souhaite remercier Hélène Delatte, qui dès le début s’est associée à cette thèse. Ton soutien inconditionnel aura été précieux pour le démarrage puis la réussite de cette thèse. Tu m’as fais confiance et m’as formé à des outils et une discipline que je ne connaissais pas. Merci ! Ton enthousiasme et ton dynamisme sont un vrai moteur pour les personnes avec qui tu travailles. Il n’y a jamais d’obstacles (ou presque !) lorsqu’il s’agit d’ADN et de petites bêtes. Je garderai aussi quelques souvenirs mémorables ( ).du congrès en Corée du Sud passé avec toi et Bernard Reynaud. J’en profite pour le remercier de m’avoir accueilli au sein de l’unité PVBMT. Last but not least, je tiens à remercier mon directeur de thèse Samuel Nibouche d’avoir accepté de m’encadrer et d’avoir participé à l’équilibre de cette thèse par ton approche globale et ta prise de recul par rapport aux problématiques. Ta rigueur et ton pragmatisme m’ont souvent aidé à me recadrer quand trop d’idées germées dans ma tête. Merci aussi pour tes lectures et re-lectures critiques des articles et du manuscrit. Ton encadrement m’a fortement enrichi professionnellement. J’adresse également toute ma gratitude à Stéphane Poussier, Alain Roques, Thomas Guillemaud et Virginie Ravigné d’avoir accepté de participer à mon jury de thèse. Je ne doute point que nos prochains échanges me feront encore progresser. Merci à Isabelle Badenhausser qui m’a fait découvrir le monde de la recherche et des insectes, il y a quelques années maintenant et sans qui je n’aurai certainement jamais pris cette voie. Merci aux agriculteurs qui m’ont ouvert leurs vergers pour que je puisse faire mes suivis échantillonnages et avec qui les échanges ont toujours été particulièrement enrichissants. Je remercie tout particulièrement Mr. Law Yat et Xavier Desmulier (CPEA) qui m’ont ouvert malgré les contraintes leur verger quasi quotidiennement pendant la floraison. Merci, aussi à toutes les cécidomyies qui ont fait don de leur corps à la Science !! 2 J’ai eu la chance de travailler au sein de deux unités du CIRAD, juste séparées par une 2x2 voies. Je remercie vivement toutes les personnes que j’y ai côtoyées pendant ces trois années de thèse (et même un peu avant) : …à la station de Bassin Plat, j’ai vraiment apprécié l’ambiance chaleureusement et agréable qui règnent sur la station. Merci à Thierry, Mathieu, Patrick et Fabrice pour leur bonne humeur quotidienne et les échanges que l’on a pu avoir. Merci aux techniciens qui m’ont donné des coups mains fort utiles : Philippe, Doralice, Gilles, Frédéric P., Marie D., et Christian (qui m’a fait concurrence certains soirs pour fermer la station !). Merci à toutes les forces vives de BP qui participent à là bonne ambiance de la station, certain(e)s sont même devenu(e)s des ami(e)s au fil du temps ! Merci à mes collègues de bureau : Claire, Thibault et Anaëlle ! Merci aux deux derniers thésards de BP : Elodie et Thibault et bon courage pour la fin ! Merci à Claire et Eléonore qui n’ont pas perdu leur motivation malgré les dizaines de milliers de larves à compter ! Enfin, merci à toutes les personnes que j’ai croisé plus ou moins longtemps : Marie L., Liliane, Amélie, Camille, Marie R., Murielle… Merci zot tout ! … au 3P, je ne pourrai remercier individuellement toutes les personnes que j’ai croisées tant il y a de l’animation et de l’activité dans cette petite fourmilière. Merci à toutes les personnes qui participent à son bon fonctionnement au quotidien, et à tous celles et ceux qui m’ont fait partagé leur passion pour la recherche. Je vais, quand même, remercier tout particulièrement : Lulu (grand mélomane de la salle de BioMol et le Lucky Luke de la pipette), Martial, Richard et Antoine (pour les superbes photos qui illustrent ma thèse). Merci également à Michel pour les tournois d’échec endiablés, aux Séb’ (grand ou malgache), aux Fred’ du Sud (petit ou crâne luisant), à Pierre et Daphné, Cathy, Audrey, … Quelques dédicaces particulières, aux joueuses et joueurs de basket-ball pour ces lundis soirs pleins de rebonds et de détente (Alice, Adrien, Charlotte, Mathieu, Mathilde, Olivier, Sarra), à Ludo et Suzy (les tous nouveaux parents), et aux ornithos et ami(e)s de la SEOR (F-X, Martin, Jean-Marc, Isabelle, Gaël, Emilie, Damien, Jerry, Marie-Laure, Annie- Claude…). Je souhaiterai remercier ma belle-famille (et Guillaume, qui sait peut-être futur beau- frère !) pour m’avoir intégrer en leur sein et m’avoir fait découvrir toute la richesse de la culture créole réunionnaise (et je ne parle pas uniquement de gastronomie !). Merci pour ces week-end passés en votre compagnie ! Les cartes vont de nouveau être de sortie ! Merci à mes parents Agnès et Louis, à ma sœur Julie et à mes grands-parents qui malgré la distance sont toujours présents à mes côtés et dans mon cœur. Un merci à Alain, Juju, et Thèrèse qui m’ont accueilli lors de mes séjours avignonnais Merci à toi, Aurore, sans qui mon existence serait bien fade ! Merci pour ta patience et pour supporter mon caractère de tête de mule. Je t’aime ! 3 SOMMAIRE Remerciements ................................................................................................................... 2 Sommaire ............................................................................................................................ 4 Résumé en français ............................................................................................................ 7 Résumé en anglais .............................................................................................................. 8 Publications personnelles autour de P. mangiferae ........................................................... 9 Liste des tableaux ............................................................................................................. 10 Liste des figures ................................................................................................................ 11 Introduction...................................................................................................................... 13 Chapitre I Synthèse bibliographique............................................................................... 16 I.1.

Brakefield Section Evolutionary Biology and Section Animal Ecology, Institute of Evolutionary and Ecological Sciences Leiden University M. Sc. Thesis 1999 PAEDOGENESIS in Eristalis arbustorum (Diptera: Syrphidae) Sum mary Paedogenesisis the reproduction by larvae or juveniles. In insects this form of reproduction is known from one beetle, several species of gall midges and possibly Erisalishoverfiies.This study aims to show paedogenesis forE. arbuslorum under controlled conditions. The first two experiments were unsuccessful. In the third experiment, a total of 1266 larvae were reared and five occasions of paedogenesis were recorded among 542 successful pupations. In all cases of paedogenesis, one larva was put in the container and two larvae or pupae were collected later. The life history consequences of this way of reproduction are discussed.

Departamento de Ecologia, Instituto de Biociências, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Av. Bento Gonçalves 9500, Bloco IV, Prédio 43422, 91501-970, Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil. ABSTRACT. Our understanding of the population ecology of insect gallers is largely built on examples from temperate zones, but tropical and subtropical gallers may present distinct patterns of abundance and distribution across time. Eugeniamyia dispar Maia, Mendonça & Romanowski, 1996 is a multivoltine Neotropical cecidomyiid that induces spongy leaf galls on Eugenia uniflora(Myrtaceae). Galls were censused in the urban area of Porto Alegre, southern Brazil on six plants at two sites, for two years, at roughly weekly intervals. Overall 9,694 eggs, galling attempts and galls were counted. New galls continuously appear on developing leaves, but galls with live inducers are absent from June to at least early August. Galls on a same shoot develop synchronically, thus the shoot is probably the unit for oviposition. Given the also synchronic appearance of galls on different plants on a site, it seems midges can disperse and attack close-by plants. Gall cohorts varied in abundance by two orders of magnitude; there were more galls during summer than for spring and autumn, in a wave-like pattern.

  • Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1).

  • Gall Midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) of South Tyrol (Italy) - Summary of Results and Zoogeographical Analysis
    Gredleriana Vol. 10 / 2010 pp. 275 - 324 Gall midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) of South Tyrol (Italy) - summary of results and zoogeographical analysis Gallmücken (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) Südtirols – zusammenfassende Resultate und zoogeographische Analyse Marcela Skuhravá and Václav Skuhravý Abstract At present the gall midge fauna of South Tyrol includes 311 species in 68 genera. A total of 271 species are valid and 40 species, still undescribed, are identified to the generic level. Investigations were carried out at 124 localities at altitides from 250 m a.s.l. at Salurn to 2581 m a.s.l. at Schaubachhütte in the Ortler Range during the period 1999-2009. Zoogeographical analysis is based on 2150 records, of which 200 were obtained by earlier researchers and 1950 records of the present authors. Until 1996 only 24 species were known to occur in South Tyrol. We enriched the faunal list of South Tyrol by adding 287 species and the faunal list of Italy by 114 species. A list of gall midge species and a list of host plants attacked by gall midges are given. Diversity ranged from 3 to 36 species at a single locality. On average we determined 15 species to occur per locality in South Tyrol. Species number declines with increasing elevation. Density is high at 189 species per 1000 km2. South Tyrol is one of the best explored areas of the world for galls of Cecidomyiidae. Frequency of occurrence: 49 % species occur very rarely, 21 % rarely, 17 % moderately frequently, 9 % frequently, 4 % very frequently. Iteomyia capreae is the most frequently recorded species in South Tyrol.
