AB  - Temperature and food quality are the most important environmental factors determining
the performance of herbivorous insects. The objective of our study was to evaluate the responses of
the spongy moth (formerly known as the gypsy moth) [Lymantria dispar L. (Lepidoptera: Erebidae)] to
simultaneous variation in these two factors. From hatching to the fourth instar, larvae were exposed
to three temperatures (19  C, 23  C, and 28  C) and fed four artificial diets that differed in protein (P)
and carbohydrate (C) content. Within each temperature regime, the effects of the nutrient content
(P+C) and ratio (P:C) on development duration, larval mass, growth rate, and activities of digestive
proteases, carbohydrases, and lipase were examined. It was found that temperature and food quality
had a significant effect on the fitness-related traits and digestive physiology of the larvae. The greatest
mass and highest growth rate were obtained at 28  C on a high-protein low-carbohydrate diet. A
homeostatic increase in activity was observed for total protease, trypsin, and amylase in response to
low substrate levels in the diet. A significant modulation of overall enzyme activities in response
to 28  C was detected only with a low diet quality. A decrease in the nutrient content and P:C ratio
only affected the coordination of enzyme activities at 28  C, as indicated by the significantly altered
correlation matrices. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that variation in fitness traits in
response to different rearing conditions could be explained by variation in digestion. Our results
contribute to the understanding of the role of digestive enzymes in post-ingestive nutrient balancing

AB  - Natural selection has significant effect on phenotypic changes in organisms exposed to chronic environmental stress induced by pollutants such as cadmium. The adaptation to such a stress comes as a direct result of natural selection in traits that will induce the evolution of tolerance to stressful environment both directly and indirectly. A statistic method was used in this experiment to determine the standard linear selection gradients (β’) and standard linear selection differentials (i’) used to estimate the intensity of the natural selection to certain traits of the adaptive values (LD – larval development; PM – pupae mass; PD – pupae development) in control group (C) and treatments ((T1 – 10 μg/g Cd; T2 – 30 μg/g Cd; iT3 – 50 μg/g Cd) where adults lifespan (AL) was considered to be the measure of the adaptive value. Significant negative selection gradients and differencials in males to LD in group T3 were determined in our experiment, as well as positive selection gradients and differentials in females to PM in groups C, T1 and T2. Females showed significant selection gradients and differentials to PM in grpoups C, T1 and T2 while the same occured with males from group C. Positive selection gradients and differencials to PD were determined in females from group T1 and males from groups C and T2. When exposed to stressful enviroments, larger females and males with shorter larval and pupal development seem to be favoured by natural selection.

AB  - Botanicals, such as essential oils (EO) and their compounds, are considered a viable ecofriendly
alternative to synthetic insecticides, which threaten human health and ecosystem functioning.
In the present study, we explored the potential use of two EO compounds, trans-anethole (phenylpropanoid)
and S-(+)-carvone (monoterpene ketone), against gypsy moth larvae (GML), a serious
pest of deciduous forests and orchards. GML feeding, survival, molting, and nutritional physiology
were assessed at different compound concentrations and compared with the effects of the commercial
botanical product NeemAzal®-T/S (neem). The impact of botanicals on GML feeding was assessed
by the leaf-dipping method and showed the highest antifeeding activity of neem in the no-choice
assay. GML that were offered a choice were deterred by anethole and attracted by low concentrations
of carvone and neem. Ingestion of botanicals was more effective in inducing mortality and reducing
molting than residual contact exposure. Anethole and carvone were better toxicants but worse growth
regulators than neem. Assessing nutritional indices revealed reduced growth, consumption, and
food utilization in larvae fed on botanical-supplemented diets. The highest metabolic cost of food
processing was recorded in carvone-fed larvae, which exhibited a negative growth rate. The results
suggest that anethole and carvone might be used as control agents against GML.

AB  - The Colorado potato beetle (CPB) is a serious pest of economically important Solanaceae
species. The use of essential oil compounds in pest management has been proposed as an alternative
to harmful chemical insecticides that disturb human health and ecosystem functioning. We examined
the antifeedant activity of three concentrations (0.125%, 0.25% and 0.5%) of pure camphor and
a thujone‐camphor mixture against 3rd instar larvae and adults. Their efficacy was evaluated according
to the degree of leaf damage and avoidance of treated leaves by the CPB. Treatment of
potato leaves significantly reduced leaf damage compared to the control. Leaf protection increased
at higher concentrations of the examined compounds. Camphor was more effective against larvae
and the thujone‐camphor mixture was more effective against adults. Additionally, adults moved
faster towards the control leaf disc in the two‐choice olfactometer assay if an alternative disc was
treated with a thujone‐camphor mixture, whereas larvae responded similarly to the two potential
repellents. However, after contact with the leaf disc treated with the highest compound concentration,
the larvae escaped faster from the thujone‐camphor mixture than from pure camphor. In conclusion,
both examined compounds are promising eco‐friendly antifeedants, but their efficacy depends
on the developmental stage of the beetle, compound type and applied concentration.

AB  - Cadmium pollution is becoming an increasing problem, especially in parts of the world that have developed industries. To consider the potentially harmful effects of cadmium, we need to examine changes at all different levels of biological organization. The main goal of this study was to detect a possible change in the percentage of midgut mass relative to larval mass (PMM) and determine the plasticity of this trait and the correlations between midgut enzymes and PMM under stress conditions. Fourth-instar larvae were exposed to acute and chronic effects of two cadmium concentrations, 10 and 30 μg Cd/g dry food, as well as a three-day recovery from chronic treatments. PMM is also an indirect indicator of food consumption and was found to be significantly reduced compared to control in both acute effects and chronic treatment at 30 μg and its three-day recovery. The PMM reduction during acute treatments is a consequence of cadmium action, while in chronic treatment, the genetic factor (egg mass) plays a crucial role in the change of PMM. According to the index of plasticity, distinct phenotypes were not produced. Significant correlations were shown between PMM and trypsin (Tryp) and leucine aminopeptidases (LAP) at acute and chronic treatment with higher cadmium concentrations, while significant correlations between proteases and PMM were detected at lower metal concentrations (Acute10 and Chronic10 and 30 μg Cd/g dry food). In contrast to chronic treatment, egg masses respond more uniformly by reducing PMM during the short-term effect of cadmium. Finally, we can conclude that, as an addition to biochemical and molecular research, PMM can be used for studying the cadmium effects to gain a better insight into the state of the organism under stress conditions.

According to the index of plasticity, distinct phenotypes were not produced. Significant correlations were shown between PMM and trypsin (Tryp) and leucine aminopeptidases (LAP) at acute and chronic treatment with higher cadmium concentrations, while significant correlations between proteases and PMM were detected at lower metal concentrations (Acute10 and Chronic10 and 30 μg Cd/g dry food). In contrast to chronic treatment, egg masses respond more uniformly by reducing PMM during the short-term effect of cadmium. Finally, we can conclude that, as an addition to biochemical and molecular research, PMM can be used for studying the cadmium effects to gain a better insight into the state of the organism under stress conditions.",

AB  - Pest resistance of trees should be taken into account in future forest strategy planning and
predicting risks of defoliation. The gypsy moth (GM) (Lymantria dispar L.) is a serious forest pest
with outbreaking population dynamics. To estimate defoliation risk of the most widely distributed
tree species in Balkan Peninsula and Europe (Turkey oak Quercus cerris L., European beech Fagus
sylvatica L. and hornbeam Carpinus betulus L.), we carried out laboratory feeding trials and investigated
their acceptability and suitability for GM development. We determined morphological and
chemical attributes of these hosts as well as larval host preference, growth and nutritional indices.
Preference, growth, and efficiency of food conversion into biomass were ranked in the order: Turkey
oak > European beech > hornbeam. Hornbeam was the most avoided and showed the lowest conversion
efficiency although, comparing to optimal oak host, its leaves were less tough, contained more
water and exhibited similar values of nitrogen (index of protein content) and C/N ratio (index of
investment into carbon based plant defense). We suggest that hornbeam and beech leaf chemical
profiles should be further studied to reveal specific compounds that impose high metabolic cost
to GM larvae. Moreover, additional research are needed to understand how intermediate hosts in
natural populations affect GM outbreaks.

AB  - Acanthoscelides obtectus Say (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Bruchinae), is one of the most important pests of the common bean Phaseolus vulgaris L. Without appropriate management it may cause significant seed loss in storages. In search for means of environmentally safe and effective protection of beans we assessed biological activity of thymol, an oxygenated monoterpene present in essential oils of many aromatic plants. We studied contact toxicity of thymol on bean seeds and its effects on adult longevity and emergence in F1 generation. Furthermore, we determined acetylcholinesterase (AChE), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), mixed-function oxidase (MFO), carboxylesterases (CarE) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activities in response to 24 h exposure of beetles to sublethal and lethal thymol concentrations. Our results showed that thymol decreased adult survival, longevity and percentage of adult emergence. Higher median lethal concentration (LC50) was recorded in females indicating their higher tolerance comparing to males. Overall, activities of SOD, CAT and CarE increased at sublethal and MFO increased at both sublethal and lethal thymol concentrations. On the other hand, GST and AChE activities decreased along with the increase in thymol concentrations from sublethal (1/5 of LC50, 1/2 of LC50) to lethal (LC50). Enzyme responses to the presence of thymol on bean seed were sex-specific. In the control group females had lower CarE and higher SOD, CAT and GST activity than males. In treatment groups, females had much higher CAT activity and much lower CarE activity than males. Our results contribute to deeper understanding of physiological mechanisms underlying thymol toxicity and tolerance which should be taken into account in future formulation of a thymol-based insecticide.

AB  - The gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L. (Lepidoptera: Erebidae)) is a serious pest of hardwood
forests. In the search for an environmentally safe means of its control, we assessed the impact
of different concentrations of essential oils (EOs) from the seeds of three Apiaceae plants (anise
Pimpinella anisum, dill Anethum graveolens, and fennel Foeniculum vulgare) on behavior, mortality,
molting and nutritional physiology of gypsy moth larvae (GML). EOs efficacy was compared with
commercial insecticide NeemAzal®-T/S (neem). The main compounds in the Eos were trans-anethole
in anise; carvone, limonene, and  -phellandrene in dill; and trans-anethole and fenchone in fennel
seed. At 1% EOs concentration, anise and fennel were better antifeedants and all three EOs were more
toxic than neem. Neem was superior in delaying 2nd to 3rd larval molting. In the 4th instar, 0.5%,
anise and fennel EOs decreased relative consumption rate more than neem, whereas all three EOs
were more effective in reducing growth rate, approximate digestibility and efficiency of conversion
of food into body mass leading to higher metabolic costs to GML. Decrease in consumption and
metabolic parameters compared to control GML confirmed that adverse effects of the EOs stem from
both pre- and post-ingestive mechanisms. The results indicate the potential of three EOs to be used
for gypsy moth control.

AB  - The Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), is one of the most destructive pest species to have developed resistance to most chemical insecticides. We determined the composition and evaluated the potential of Tanacetum parthenium L. and Tanacetum vulgare L. (Asteraceae family) essential oil (EO) application as an alternative eco-friendly control strategy against L. decemlineata. We assessed the antifeedant activity for L. decemlineata larvae and adults by estimating the damage to potato leaves treated with three concentrations of EOs dissolved in ethanol (0.125, 0.25 and 0.5%). Results showed that T. parthenium EO was more effective against larvae, and T. vulgare was more effective against adults. In an olfactometer assay, the time required to choose an untreated leaf disc did not depend on the Tanacetum species, or life stage examined. However, the concentration of EO exhibited a significant effect on the behaviour of both developmental stages. At higher EO concentrations, both third instar larvae and adults require less time to choose an untreated leaf disc. Additionally, T. parthenium EO provoked more rapid movement away from the treated leaf disc than T. vulgare, especially at the highest concentration. Successful modification of L. decemlineata behaviour by the two Tanacetum oils suggests that they possess the potential for use in potato protection.

UR  - https://radar.ibiss.bg.ac.rs/handle/123456789/3601
AB  - The development of "green" alternatives to chemical pesticides could play a crucial role in integrated pest management (IPM). Their use is considered either as a substitution for or in addition to hazardous synthetic products. We analysed the influence of three concentrations of tansy (Tanacetum vulgare L.) essential oil (EO), previously characterised by GC-MS, on the survival and moulting of the 2nd instar and the nutritional indices of the 4th instar gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) larvae. In a residual contact toxicity assessment, the exposure to tansy EO caused low mortality (< 10%) while larval development was significantly slowed down, i.e., the percentage of larvae that moulted into the 3rd instar was reduced. On the other hand, when tansy EO was incorporated into the diet (digestive toxicity assay), high mortality and a lack of moulting after 120 h of eating were recorded for the highest applied concentration of EO. During 48 h of feeding on EO-supplemented food at concentrations of 0.5 and 1% (v/v), the relative growth rate (RGR) of the 4th instar larvae significantly decreased, which can be explained by a significant reduction of the relative consumption rate (RCR) and significantly or marginally significantly lower efficiency of conversion of ingested food into insect biomass (ECI). Although the RCR was also reduced with the lowest applied EO concentration (0.1%), the ECI was not affected which meant the RGR was as high as it was for the control larvae. ECI changes, when two higher EO concentrations were applied, were due to a reduction in the efficiency of conversion of digested food into biomass (ECD), while approximate digestibility was unaffected by the presence of EO in the food. Our results on the significant negative effects of tansy EO on gypsy moth larval survival, development time, and nutritional physiology suggest that it could be considered in future designs for botanical insecticides for gypsy moth control.

Their use is considered either as a substitution for or in addition to hazardous synthetic products. We analysed the influence of three concentrations of tansy (Tanacetum vulgare L.) essential oil (EO), previously characterised by GC-MS, on the survival and moulting of the 2nd instar and the nutritional indices of the 4th instar gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) larvae. In a residual contact toxicity assessment, the exposure to tansy EO caused low mortality (< 10%) while larval development was significantly slowed down, i.e., the percentage of larvae that moulted into the 3rd instar was reduced.

AB  - A crucial enzyme in feeding and survival of Lymantria dispar (gypsy moth) caterpillars is β-glucosidase. Considering that this herbivorous species is one of the most damaging pests, a study of the enzyme that hydrolyzes plant polysaccharides is of invaluable significance. The knowledge of glucosidase alterations helps clarify our understanding of the insect pest feeding strategy in highly polluted environments. We sought to find out whether acute and chronic exposures to cadmium (10 and 30 μg Cd/g dry food), as well as the recovery from long-term treatment, influence the specific activity of midgut β-glucosidase. Cadmium ingestion did not alter enzyme activity compared to control, regardless of the treatment duration and metal concentration. The only statistically significant increase in enzyme activity was detected during the recovery after chronic treatment at 10 μg Cd/g dry food compared to the chronic cadmium effect at the same metal concentration. During chronic treatment at a lower cadmium concentration (10 μg Cd/g dry food), the phenotypic plasticity index was higher than at the recovery from the same concentration, while the variability of plasticity among these treatments was higher after recovery. Only one enzyme isoform was detected, which indicates its ability to hydrolyze several substrates. We concluded that this enzyme is probably essential for larval nutrition and survival in the presence of high amounts of cadmium in the food.

AB  - The bean weevil Acanthoscelides obtectus Say (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Bruchinae) can cause significant losses in production of its primary host common bean Phaseolus vulgaris L. To avoid bean protection with environmentally risky chemical insecticides and provide sustainable and safe production of food, new pest management methods based on natural compounds are investigated. In the present study, we evaluated protective potential of the essential oil (EO) from the common thyme Thymus vulgaris L. applied on bean seeds. We assessed residual contact toxicity of thyme EO and its effects on A. obtectus longevity, oviposition and adult emergence. Furthermore, to elucidate the role of oxidative stress in thyme EO toxicity, we estimated the levels of oxidatively damaged proteins and lipids, as well as the level of thiols which have important role for antioxidant capacity. We found that thyme oil significantly reduced adult survival and longevity, induced oxidative damage to lipids and proteins and depleted protein and non-protein thiols in a concentration-dependent manner. Females appeared to be more tolerant to thyme oil treatment than males. Sublethal EO concentrations affected oxidative stress indices, deterred oviposition and strongly inhibited adult emergence. The results suggest that thyme oil has the potential to be used as an ecofriendly insecticide for A. obtectus control.

AB  - Gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar L. (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) feeds on a large number of tree species, while ash, Fraxinus spp. (Lamiales: Oleaceae) species are considered resistant and are only sporadically eaten. To assess the conditions under which late instar gypsy moth larvae (GML) can temporarily use non-host common ash (CA) (F. excelsior L.), and to evaluate their ability to recover from ingestion of this toxic food, we determined the relative growth rate, the relative consumption rate and the amount of produced feces in different laboratory feeding trials. Our report is the first to show that under specific circumstances, the resources acquired after short-term consumption of CA leaves can be utilized for larval growth. We varied the intensity of density and starvation stress prior to feeding on CA leaves. We observed that after moderate stress a group of GML was temporarily capable of coping with CA leaves. Although observed growth and consumption were much lower on CA than on the optimal host oak, Quercus cerris L. (Fagales: Fagaceae), CA-oak-switched larvae showed the ability to recover from short-term use of a toxic non-host foliage. This suggests that feeding on CA might enable GML to survive under conditions of food shortage.

AB  - The bean weevil (Acanthoscelides obtectus, Say) is a serious pest of stored bean seeds. Bean weevil control relies heavily on the use of synthetic insecticides. In the search for a sustainable alternative, the residual contact toxicity and anti-oviposition activity of thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.), rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) and basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) essential oils as well as their dominant components (thymol, α-pinene, 1,8-cineole and linalool) were tested against A. obtectus adults. Out of the seven tested botanicals, T. vulgaris oil, thymol and linalool exhibited the highest toxic potential (>90% mortality). Females were less susceptible than males. The insecticidal activity of these botanicals was much greater when they were applied on glass compared to direct application to the bean. All tested botanicals reduced oviposition by bean weevil females. T. vulgaris oil, thymol and α-pinene also deterred bean weevil oviposition, as revealed by a two-choice test. Our research shows that T. vulgaris oil and thymol are promising and sustainable alternatives to synthetic pesticides for protecting stored beans against the bean weevil.

AB  - Larvae of gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) are major defoliators of deciduous forests and urban
environment. The biological means of regulation of moth population density were incorporated
along with conventional treatment in the integrative management concept. The effects of tansy
(Tanacetum vulgare L.) essential oil (EO) to gypsy moths were monitored through the effects of
residual contact and digestive toxicity on the mortality and development in the second instar
larvae, but also through the growth and feeding indices of the fourth instar larvae. Although EO
presence didn’t cause residual contact toxicity or significantly affect larval mortality, tested oil notably
elongated developmental time by delaying the molting moment and reduced percentage
of molted larvae. On the other hand, EO digestion caused significant mortality in the second instar
larvae (72% compared to control, at the end of experiment). Digestion of food enriched with tansy
oil decreased the efficiency of the diet, and led to reduced mass gain, and therefore induced the
delay of the molting moment, or completely stopped molting into the third instar larvae. Besides
that, EO reduced the daily mass gain (0.06 mg mg-1 day-1 compared to 0.3 mg mg-1 day-1 in control)
and the food consumption rate (0.61 mg mg-1 day-1 compared to 1.23 mg mg-1 day-1 in control)
in the fourth instar larvae and caused decrease of the conversion rate of digested food to larvae
body mass (10.62% compared to 26.05% in control). Despite that, food assimilation rate to larvae
body mass was not significantly decreased, which moderated negative effects of EO digestion as
well as reduced food intake.

AB  - For long-term protection of stored products there is a growing demand to replace chemical insecticides due to their effects on human health and environmental safety. Particulate materials, such as inert dusts and various submicron and nanomaterials have been extensively tested as viable alternatives. This is the first study on the insecticidal impact of alumina powder (α-Al2O3) on the bruchid pest, Acanthoscelides obtectus (Say) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Bruchinae). By altering the fuel to oxidant molar ratio (F/O: 0.5, 0.8, 1.2) in an autocombustion reaction we synthesized alumina powders with specific surface area and particle size varying from the nano- to micron scale. It was found that particle morphology influenced survival and progeny number of A. obtectus. The order of powders from low to high efficacy in reducing beetle performance (F/O-0.8 < F/O-0.5 < F/O-1.2) correlated well with increase in surface area, pore volume and diameter, and decrease in particle size. Survival was also affected by time of exposure, the applied dose and sex. The estimated median lethal concentration of the most efficient powder F/O-1.2 was significantly lower in males (LC50 = 330.4 ppm) than in females (LC50 = 409.6 ppm). Our results suggest that alumina powder can be considered for seed protection against A. obtectus, particularly during long-term storage, as it is cost effective, exerts limited toxicity to humans and demands no repetitive use like conventional pesticides.

AB  - Colorado potato beetle (CPB; Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say, Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) has shown a remarkable adaptability to a variety of control measures. Although oryzacystatin I and II (OCI and OCII) have potential in controlling pests that use cysteine proteinases for food digestion, expression of a single OC gene in potato exhibited a minimal or no effect on CPB fitness traits. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of coexpressed OCI and OCII in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivars Desiree, Dragačevka and Jelica on CPB larvae. Growth parameters, consumption rates and food utilization, as well as activity of proteases of CPB larvae were assayed. Second and third instar larvae fed on transformed leaves molted earlier and had higher relative growth and consumption rates than larvae fed on nontransformed leaves, while efficiency of food utilization was unaffected. In contrast, fourth instar maximum weight gain and amount of leaves consumed were about 20% lower for the larvae fed on transgenic potato. Analysis of total protease activity of third instar larvae revealed reduction in overall proteolytic activity measured by azocasein hydrolysis, accompanied with inhibition of cysteine proteinase activity 24 h after ingestion of potato leaves expressing OCI and OCII. However, after long-term feeding on transformed leaves proteolytic activities of larvae became similar to the controls. Although feeding on OCI/OCII leaves did not affect larval survival, coexpression of OC genes reduced the development time and thus significantly decreased plant damage caused by CPB larvae.

AB  - This work examines the effects of cadmium on changes to the index of phenotypic plasticity
during the larval development in gypsy moth. Control group without cadmium supplements and three
cadmium-fed groups were formed: C1 (10 μg Cd/g dry weight), C2 (30 μg Cd/g dry weight) and C3
(50 μg Cd/g dry weight). Evaluation of the index of phenotypic plasticity was performed according to
Cheplick’s and Lee’s method. Index comparison according to Lee has determined the statistically
significantly higher value in group C1 in relation to C2 during the larval development until third
instar, and in group C3 in relation to C1 during third instar. Additionally, higher values in group C1 in
relation to C2 have also been determined until the fourth instar. Phenotypic index value comparison
according to Cheplick has determined significantly higher values in group C1 larvae in relation to C3
during the larval development until the third instar, whereas groups C2 and C3 yielded values higher
until the fourth instar. Aforementioned traits and their values in group C3 were recorded as negative
which suggests that cadmium presence in the environment during certain stages of larval development
can be of significant effect to direction of changes in phenotypic plasticity.

AB  - The gypsy moth is a generalist insect pest with an extremely wide host range. Adaptive responses of digestive enzymes are important for the successful utilization of plant hosts that differ in the contents and ratios of constituent nutrients and allelochemicals. In the present study, we examined the responses of α-amylase, trypsin, and leucine aminopeptidase to two tree hosts (suitable oak, Quercus cerris, and unsuitable locust tree, Robinia pseudoacacia) in the fourth, fifth, and sixth instars of gypsy moth larvae originating from oak and locust tree forest populations (hereafter assigned as Quercus and Robinia populations, respectively). Gypsy moths from the Robinia forest had been adapting to this unsuitable host for more than 40 generations. To test for population-level host plant specialization, we applied a two-population × two-host experimental design. We compared the levels, developmental patterns, and plasticities of the activities of enzymes. The locust tree diet increased enzyme activity in the fourth instar and reduced activity in advanced instars of the Quercus larvae in comparison to the oak diet. These larvae also exhibited opposite developmental trajectories on the two hosts, i.e. activity increased on the oak diet and decreased on the locust tree diet with the progress of instar. Larvae of the Robinia population were characterized by reduced plasticity of enzyme activity and its developmental trajectories. In addition, elevated trypsin activity in response to an unsuitable host was observed in all instar larvae of the Robinia population, which demonstrated that Robinia larvae had an improved digestive performance than did Quercus larvae.

AB  - The role of mitochondrial DNA for the evolution of life-history traits remains debated. We examined mitonuclear effects on the activity of the multisubunit complex of the electron transport chain (ETC) involved in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) across lines of the seed beetle Acanthoscelides obtectus selected for a short (E) or a long (L) life for more than >160 generations. We constructed and phenotyped mitonuclear introgression lines, which allowed us to assess the independent effects of the evolutionary history of the nuclear and the mitochondrial genome. The nuclear genome was responsible for the largest share of divergence seen in ageing. However, the mitochondrial genome also had sizeable effects, which were sex-specific and expressed primarily as epistatic interactions with the nuclear genome. The effects of mitonuclear disruption were largely consistent with mitonuclear coadaptation. Variation in ETC activity explained a large proportion of variance in ageing and life-history traits and this multivariate relationship differed somewhat between the sexes. In conclusion, mitonuclear epistasis has played an important role in the laboratory evolution of ETC complex activity, ageing, and life histories and these are closely associated. The mitonuclear architecture of evolved differences in life-history traits and mitochondrial bioenergetics was sex-specific.

AB  - Expanding from remote areas of Mexico to a worldwide scale, the ten-striped insect, the Colorado potato beetle (CPB, Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say), has risen from being an innocuous beetle to a prominent global pest. A diverse life cycle, phenotypic plasticity, adaptation to adverse conditions, and capability to detoxify or tolerate toxins make this insect appear to be virtually “indestructible”. With increasing advances in molecular biology, tools of biotechnological warfare were deployed to combat CPB. In the last three decades, genetically modified potato has created a new challenge for the beetle. After reviewing hundreds of scientific papers dealing with CPB control, it became clear that even biotechnological means of control, if used alone, would not defeat the Colorado potato beetle. This control measure once again appears to be provoking the potato beetle to exhibit its remarkable adaptability. Nonetheless, the potential for adaptation to these techniques has increased our knowledge of this pest and thus opened possibilities for devising more sustainable CPB management programs.

After reviewing hundreds of scientific papers dealing with CPB control, it became clear that even biotechnological means of control, if used alone, would not defeat the Colorado potato beetle. This control measure once again appears to be provoking the potato beetle to exhibit its remarkable adaptability. Nonetheless, the potential for adaptation to these techniques has increased our knowledge of this pest and thus opened possibilities for devising more sustainable CPB management programs.",

AB  - The role of mitochondrial DNA for the evolution of life-history traits remains debated. We examined mitonuclear effects on the activity of the multisubunit complex of the electron transport chain (ETC) involved in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) across lines of the seed beetle Acanthoscelides obtectus selected for a short (E) or a long (L) life for more than >160 generations. We constructed and phenotyped mitonuclear introgression lines, which allowed us to assess the independent effects of the evolutionary history of the nuclear and the mitochondrial genome. The nuclear genome was responsible for the largest share of divergence seen in ageing. However, the mitochondrial genome also had sizeable effects, which were sex-specific and expressed primarily as epistatic interactions with the nuclear genome. The effects of mitonuclear disruption were largely consistent with mitonuclear coadaptation. Variation in ETC activity explained a large proportion of variance in ageing and life-history traits and this multivariate relationship differed somewhat between the sexes. In conclusion, mitonuclear epistasis has played an important role in the laboratory evolution of ETC complex activity, ageing, and life histories and these are closely associated. The mitonuclear architecture of evolved differences in life-history traits and mitochondrial bioenergetics was sex-specific.

AB  - Expansion of the host range in phytophagous insects depends on their ability to form an association with a novel plant through changes in host-related traits. Phenotypic plasticity has important effects on initial survival of individuals faced with a new plant, as well as on the courses of evolutionary change during long-term adaptation to novel conditions. Using experimental populations of the seed beetle that evolved on ancestral (common bean) or novel (chickpea) host and applying reciprocal transplant at both larval and adult stage on the alternative host plant, we studied the relationship between the initial (plastic) phases of host-shift and the subsequent stages of evolutionary divergence in life-history strategies between populations exposed to the host-shift process. After 48 generations, populations became well adapted to chickpea by evolving the life-history strategy with prolonged larval development, increased body mass, earlier reproduction, shorter lifespan and decreased plasticity of all traits compared with ancestral conditions. In chickpea-adapted beetles, negative fitness consequences of low plasticity of pre-adult development (revealed as severe decrease in egg-to-adult viability on beans) exhibited mismatch with positive effects of low plasticity (i.e. low host sensitivity) in oviposition and fecundity. In contrast, beetles adapted to the ancestral host showed high plasticity of developmental process, which enabled high larval survival on chickpea, whereas elevated plasticity in adult behaviour (i.e. high host sensitivity) resulted in delayed reproduction and decreased fecundity on chickpea. The analysis of population growth parameters revealed significant fluctuation during successive phases of the host-shift process in A. obtectus.
