Geographic variation of sex pheromone and mitochondrial DNA in Diatraea saccharalis (Fab., 1794) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

(9Z,11E)-hexadecadienal and (Z11)-hexadecenal, the main sex pheromone components of the sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis, were identified and quantified from four Brazilian and one Colombian populations using GC-EAD, GC-MS and GC analyses. Three different ratios were observed, 9:1,6:1, and 3:1. The pheromone concentration for the major component, (9Z,11E)-hexadecadienal, varied from 6.8 ng/gland to 21.9 ng/gland and from 1.7 ng/gland to 6.5 to the minor component, (Z11)-hexadecenal. The 25 D. saccharalis cytochrome oxidase II sequences that were analyzed showed low intra-specific variation and represented only 11 haplotypes, with the most frequent being the one represented by specimens from Sao Paulo, Parana, and Pernambuco states. Specimens from Colombia showed the highest genetic divergence from the others haplotypes studied. Data on the genetic variability among specimens, more than their geographic proximity, were in agreement with data obtained from analyses of the pheromone extracts. Our data demonstrate a variation in pheromone composition and a covariation in haplotypes of the D. saccharalis populations studied. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Reproductive biology of the eastern shovelnose ray, Aptychotrema rostrata (Shaw & Nodder, 1794), from Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia

The eastern shovelnose ray, Aptychotrema rostrata (Rhinobatidae), is an endemic batoid common to the east coast of Australia. The reproductive cycle was studied in Moreton Bay, south-eastern Queensland, over a 14-month period. Aptychotrema rostrata is an aplacental yolksac viviparous species with an annual, seasonal reproductive cycle in Moreton Bay. Females mature at 54-66 cm total length, and males at 60-68 cm total length. Gravid females were observed during September-November and parturition occurred in November-December. Vitellogenesis does not proceed in parallel with gestation. Ovulation and copulation probably occur during July-September, resulting in a gestational period of 3-5 months. Uterine fecundity ranges from 4 to 18, with a significant positive relationship between uterine fecundity and maternal body length. In mature males, a peak in the proportion of mature spermatocysts in the testes was observed in July, whereas gonadosomatic index peaked in April.

Preferência de Cotesia flavipes (Cameron, 1891) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) por lagartas de Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius, 1794) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) alimentadas com diferentes cultivares de cana-de-açúcar

O objetivo desta pesquisa foi avaliar a preferência do parasitoide Cotesia flavipes (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) por lagartas de Diatraea saccharalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), alimentadas com diferentes cultivares de cana-de-açúcar. O experimento foi conduzido em laboratório, em duas condições de alimentação, uma envolvendo lagartas de D. saccharalis, alimentadas em dieta artificial, e, a outra, com lagartas alimentadas em dieta artificial e mantidas temporariamente nos toletes dos cultivares de cana-de-açúcar. Os cultivares utilizados foram: SP80-1842 e SP81-3250, resistentes, e RB855536, suscetível à D. saccharalis. A preferência para oviposição das fêmeas de C. flavipes foi avaliada em testes com e sem chance de escolha, em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com quatro tratamentos e 15 repetições. Lagartas de D. saccharalis com 19 dias de idade foram oferecidas para fêmeas de C. flavipes, acasaladas e com 24 horas de idade, em ambos os testes. No teste com chance de escolha, utilizou-se um olfatômetro, o qual constou de quatro compartimentos, em cujo centro liberaram-se quatro fêmeas de C. flavipes, enquanto, no teste sem chance de escolha, foram utilizadas placas de Petri, no interior das quais se colocou uma lagarta de D. saccharalis, oriunda das duas condições de alimentação. Nestes testes, foi observada a percentagem de parasitismo e, continua-mente, o comportamento da primeira escolha de fêmeas de C. flavipes, em intervalos de zero a um, um a três, três a cinco, cinco a oito e de oito a dez minutos após as liberações. Lagartas de D. saccharalis, oriundas da alimentação em dieta artificial com colmos triturados dos cultivares, foram igualmente preferidas para atratividade de fêmeas do parasitoide C. flavipes. A percentagem de parasitismo de lagartas de D. saccharalis, criadas com dietas artificiais com colmos dos cultivares SP80-1042 e RB855536, foi igualmente parasitadas por C. flavipes.
