  • photoperiod and temperature effects on the adult eclosion and mating rhythms in pseudopidorus fasciata lepidoptera Zygaenidae
    Environmental Entomology, 2014
    Co-Authors: Roberto Refinetti, L T Kok, R R Youngman, Gadi V P Reddy, Fangsen Xue
    Abstract:

    Daily distributions of eclosion and mating activities of Pseudopidorus fasciata Walker (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae) were recorded under natural and various laboratory conditions. Eclosion of this insect exhibited circadian gating in constant darkness (DD) but not in constant light (LL) at 28°C. Under natural conditions, the majority of adults emerged in midmorning with an eclosion peak around 1000 hours. The eclosion distribution was significantly affected by ambient temperature but not by photoperiod under laboratory conditions. Eclosion was more spread out at 22°C than at higher temperatures, and peak eclosion times were advanced at higher temperatures up to 30°C. Under natural and laboratory diurnal cycles, adults of P. fasciata preferred to mate at dusk, within a few hours before the start of the scotophase. Photoperiod and ambient temperature interacted in regulating the mating distribution in P. fasciata. Mating rhythmicity disappeared under DD and LL, under which the insect either mated arrhythmically (DD) or barely mated (LL). Overall, eclosion rhythm in this insect was predominantly regulated by temperature rather than photoperiod, whereas photoperiod appeared to be more influential than temperature in rhythmic gate of mating patterns.

  • photoperiodism of diapause induction in thyrassia penangae lepidoptera Zygaenidae
    Journal of Insect Physiology, 2009
    Co-Authors: Zhenhua Xian, Fang Huang, Xingping Liu, Fangsen Xue
    Abstract:

    Abstract Thyrassia penangae enters winter diapause as a prepupa in a cocoon. Photoperiodism of diapause induction was systematically investigated in this moth. The photoperiodic response curves under 24-h light–dark cycles showed that this insect is a typical long-day species. The critical daylength was 13 h 30 min at 25 °C, 13 h at 30 °C and 12 h 20 min at 28 °C. Transferring experiments from a short day (LD 12:12) to a long day (LD 15:9) or vice versa indicated that photoperiodic sensitivity mainly occurs during the larval period. In experiments using non-24-h light–dark cycles, when the length of photophase exceeded the critical daylength (13.5 h), was diapause inhibited effectively, even when the length of scotophase exceeded the critical nightlength (10.5 h). Only when a long scotophase was combined with a short photophase, diapause was induced effectively. This result suggests that daylength measurement is more important than nightlength measurement in T. penangae. Night interruption experiments under 24-h light–dark cycles exhibited two points of apparent light sensitivity, but the photosensitive position was highly influenced by temperature and the length of scotophase. Nanda–Hamner experiments failed to reveal the involvement of a circadian system in this photoperiodic time measurement. All light–dark cycles from LD 12:12 to LD 12:72 resulted in a short day response, and all cycles from LD 14:4 to LD 14:72 resulted in a long day response, suggesting that photoperiodic time measurement in this moth is performed by a day-interval timer or an hourglass-like clock.

  • induction and termination of prepupal summer diapause in pseudopidorus fasciata lepidoptera Zygaenidae
    Journal of Insect Physiology, 2006
    Co-Authors: Dong Yang, Xiting Lai, Fangsen Xue
    Abstract:

    Abstract The seasonal life cycle of the zygaenid moth, Pseudopidorus fasciata is complicated by two different developmental arrests: a winter diapause as a fourth larval instar and a summer diapause as a prepupa in a cocoon. Both larval diapause induction and termination are under photoperiodic control. Short days induce larval diapause with a critical daylength of 13.5 h and long days terminate diapause with a critical daylength of 14 h. In the present study photoperiodic control of summer diapause was investigated in Pseudopidorus fasciata . Under long photoperiods ranging from LD 14:10 to LD 18:6, only part of the population entered summer diapause, the rest continued to develop. The lowest number of prepupae entered diapause at LD 14:10, followed by LD 16:8 and LD 17:7. The highest incidence of diapause occurred with photoperiods of LD 15:9 and LD 18:6. By transferring the diapausing prepupae induced by various long photoperiods (LD 14:10, LD 15:9, LD 16:8, LD 17:7, LD 18:6) to LD 13:11, 25 °C, the duration of diapause induced by LD 14:10 was significantly shorter than those induced by longer photoperiods. By keeping aestivating prepupae induced by LD 15:9, 28 °C or by natural conditions at short photoperiods (LD 11:13 and LD 13:11) and at a long photoperiod (LD 15:9), the duration of diapause at LD 15:9 was more than twice as long as than those at LD 11:13 and LD 13:11. Moreover, adult emergence was highly dispersed with a high mortality at LD 15:9 but was synchronized with low mortality at LD 11:13 and LD 13:11. When the naturally induced aestivating prepupae were kept under natural conditions, the early aestivating prepupae formed in May exhibited a long duration of diapause (mean 126 days), whereas the later-aestivating prepupae formed in July exhibited a short duration of diapause (mean 69 days). These results indicate that aestivating prepupae require short or shortening photoperiod to terminate their diapause successfully. By transferring naturally induced aestivating prepupae to 25, 28 and 30 °C, the duration of diapause at the high temperature of 30 °C was significantly longer than those at 25 and 28 °C, suggesting that high temperature during summer also plays an important role in the maintenance of summer diapause in Pseudopidorus fasciata . All results reveal that summer diapause can serve as a “bet hedging” against unpredictable risks due to fluctuating environments or as a feedback mechanism to synchronize the period of autumn emergence.

  • photoperiodic clock of diapause induction in pseudopidorus fasciata lepidoptera Zygaenidae
    Journal of Insect Physiology, 2001
    Co-Authors: Xiaotang Wei, Fangsen Xue
    Abstract:

    Induction of larval diapause is a photoperiodically controlled event in the life history of the moth Pseudopidorus fasciata. In the present study, the photoperiodic counter of diapause induction has been systematically investigated. The required day number (RDN) for a 50% response was determined by transferring from a short night (LD 16:8) to a long night (LD 12:12) or vice versa at different times after hatching, The RND differed significantly between short- and long-night cycles at different temperatures. The RDN for long-night cycles at 20, 22, 25 and 28 degrees C was 11.5, 9.5, 7.5 and 8.5 days, respectively. The RDN for short-night cycles was 3 days at 22 degrees C and 5 days at 20 degrees C indicating that the effect of one short night was equivalent to the effect of 2-3 long nights effect. Night-interruption experiments of 24h photoperiods by a 1 h light pulse showed that the most crucial event for the photoperiodic time measurement in this moth was whether the length of pre-interruption (D(1)) or the post-interruption (D(2)) scotophases exceeded the critical night length (10.5 h). If D(1) or D(2) exceeded 10.5 h diapause was induced. The diapause-averting effect of a single short-night cycle (LD 16:8) against a background of long nights (LD 12:12) showed that the photoperiodic sensitivity was greatest during the first 7 days of the larval period and the highest sensitivity was on the fourth day. Both non-24 and 24 h light-dark cycle experiments revealed that the photoperiodic counter in P. fasciata is able to accumulate both long and short nights during the photosensitive period, but in different ways. The information from short-night cycles seems to be accumulated one by one in contrast to long-night cycles where six successive cycles were necessary for about 50% diapause induction and eight cycles for about 90% diapause. These results suggest the accumulation of long-night and short-night cycles may be based on different mechanisms.

  • phylogenetic position of the extinct fijian coconut moth levuana iridescens lepidoptera Zygaenidae
    PLOS ONE, 2019
    Co-Authors: Vazrick Nazari, Gerhard M Tarmann, Konstantin A Efetov
    Abstract:

    Levuana iridescens Bethune-Baker, 1906, a day-flying moth purported to be endemic to the Fijian Island of Viti Levu and a former pest of its coconut palm trees, was last observed in 1956 and has been officially declared extinct by IUCN since 1996. The controversial classical biological control method that resulted in the (presumed) demise of this moth has given this species an iconic status in biological control studies. We investigated the sister-group relationships and phylogenetic placement of this moth using NGS-obtained ancient DNA sequences from museum specimens of L. iridescens collected in the 1920s, combined with 31 morphological characters used in earlier studies and 2 new characters. Our findings show that Levuana is most closely related to the Australian genus Myrtartona. The significance of these findings is discussed.
