Time course differential profiles of proteins expressed in Holotrichia serrata during tritrophic interaction among EPN and associated bacteria. LC-MSMS

ABSTRACT: Entomopathogenic nematodes, the beneficial soil-dwelling nematodes identified with noteworthy ecological services of insect pest management naturally, harbor and vector obligate bacterial symbionts which together cause rapid insect mortality. The tritrophism among the bacterium-nematode-insect host is a treasure box of biological, molecular and biochemical information that was examined to a limited extent. In this project, we intend to explore the time-course expression of proteins of test insect, Holotrichia serrata larvae, during the progression of larval mortality due to nematode-bacterium infection, more specifically, Heterorhabditis indica- Photorhabdus luminescens, Steinernema spp. vs Xenorhabdus spp., respectively. The data submitted relates to the insect protein profiles (LC-MSMS) in healthy, infected and morbid, and dead larvae of Holotrichia serrata.

Time-course differential profiles of proteins expressed in Holotrichia serrata during tritrophic interactions among EPN and associated bacteria by UPLC-Q-TOF (LC-MS/MS)

Project description:Entomopathogenic nematodes, the beneficial soil-dwelling nematodes identified with noteworthy ecological services of insect pest management, naturally, harbor and vector obligate bacterial symbionts which together cause rapid insect mortality. The tritrophism among the bacterium-nematode-insect host is a treasure box of biological, molecular and biochemical information that was examined to a limited extent in other studies. We have, herein, aimed at quantifying the concentration and at generating the total proteomic profiles of one insect host, Spodoptera frungiperda, during the progression of infection with 4 EPN and their associated bacteria, as compared to that of healthy controls. The time-course expression of larval proteins of the test insect, Spodoptera frugiperda, during the progression of larval mortality due to nematode-bacterium infection, more specifically,4 different combinations of Heterorhabditis indica-Photorhabdus luminescens, Steinernema spp. vs Xenorhabdus spp., respectively. The proteomic profiling was facilitated through LC-MS/MS. The data submitted relates to the insect protein profiles (LC-MSMS) in healthy, infected and morbid, and dead larvae of Spodoptera frugiperda.

The Drosophila immune response towards entomopathogenic nematodes and their associated bacteria.

Project description:Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) of the genera Heterorhabditis are obligate and lethal insect parasites. In recent years they have been used increasingly as biological control agents. These EPNs are symbiotically associated with bacteria of the genera Photorhabdus. The bacterial symbionts are essential to kill the host (within 24-48 hours) and digest its tissues to provide nutrients for themselves as well for expanding nematodes. Drosophila larvae are suitable insect hosts and part of the tripartite model system we used before to show the importance of haemolymph clotting and eicosanoids during the infection. We used the well-established tripartite model (Drosophila, nematodes, bacteria), DNA chips and bioinformatic tools to compare gene expression in non-infected and infected fly larvae. We focused on the early time point of nematode infection and therefore infected Drosophila larvae using H. bacteriophora harbouring GFP-labelled P. luminescens bacteria. Infected (GFP positive) larvae were collected 6 hours after infection.

Exploration of RNA-Seq data to identify a potential pathogen of the leaf-mining moth, Stomphastis sp. (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae)

Project description:The leaf-mining moth (Stomphastis sp.) was imported to Australia as a potential biological control agent of a weed, Bellyache bush (Jatropha gossypiifolia). The insect colony has been maintained in the quarantine facility for over eight years. Recently, significant mortality was observed in the population. The larvae demonstrated swollen intersegments with a fragile integument. The infected larvae are cloudy muted green or yellowish whereas a healthy late instar larva is a vivid green. They slowly dehydrate and eventually die and when death occurs, the larval body becomes rubbery and turns to black. We used next generation sequencing approach to identify the cause of mortality in the population. Total RNA was extracted from 20 larvae in two cohorts with and without apparent symptoms of disease for deep sequencing on NovaSeq platform after eukaryote ribosomal RNA depletion. We identified several non-insect sequences belonging to viruses, bacteria and fungi but none of those showed significant abundance or enrichment in the infected dataset. The sequences related to a unicellular yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, are among the highly expressed non-insect contigs and more than 5% of reads in both libraries mapped to the genome of this opportunistic microorganism.

Identification of (E)-β-farnesene impair the development and survival of Chilo suppressalis larval by disrupting insect hormone balance

Project description:In this study, an artificial feeding study containing (E)-β-farnesene (0.8g/kg) with C. suppressalis larvae was conducted to investigate its physical performance, and results revealed that the average 2nd instar duration in C. suppressalis significantly increased from 4.78 days to 6.31 days after Eβf treatment (P<0.001), and in 3rd instar C. larvae also significantly increased from 5.70 days to 8.00 days (P<0.001). There were no significant differences in 4th and 5th C. suppressalis larval between Eβf treatment and control(P>0.05). The mortality rates of 2nd C. suppressalis larvae were increased by 21.00-fold, compared with control(P<0.001), 3rd C. suppressalis larval increased by 6.39-fold(P<0.001). Comparative transcriptome analysis also showed that multiple DEGs involved in insect hormone biosynthesis pathway, the results of hormone assay in 3rd instar larvae showed the balance between juvenile hormones and ecdysteroids was disrupted. Eβf treatment increased juvenile hormones titers, but not the ecdysteroids. The results of qPCR were consistent with RNA-seq. Taken together, Eβf impairs the development and survival of C. suppressalis larvae by disrupting insect hormone balance. Moreover, the altered pathways were associated with carbohydrates, xenobiotics and cofactors and vitamins in C. suppressalis larvae. Altogether, our findings identify Eβf impair the development and survival of C. suppressalis larvae. Additionally, our data also revealed a potential mechanism that Eβf impaired the development and survival of C. suppressalis larval by disrupting insect hormone balance. These findings may contribute to the integrated control of C. suppressalis.

Project description:Wolbachia pipientis is an obligate intracellular bacterium capable of spreading itself through populations by manipulating the reproduction of its hosts. The Wolbachia strain wMelPop, which reduces longevity in Drosophila melanogaster, has been introduced into the Dengue virus mosquito vector, Aedes aegypti, as a strategy to reduce disease transmission. The infecting Wolbachia halve the lifespan of the mosquito and induce numerous behavioral and physiological abnormalities that reduce the ability of the mosquito to successfully obtain a blood meal. We aim to understand the mechanism underpinning these changes and hence have chosen to explore how Wolbachia may be interacting with the insects nervous and muscle tissue. We carried out a series whole genome profiling experiments based on head and muscle tissues to identify mosquito pathways affected by the microbe.

Divergent venom effectors correlate with ecological niche in neuropteran predators

Project description:Neuropteran larvae are fierce predators that use venom to feed on arthropods, but their venom system is poorly understood. The iconic antlions (Myrmeleontidae) are adapted to dry, sandy habitats, where they use pitfall traps and venom to catch and subdue large arthropod prey. The aphid lions, larvae of green lacewings (Chrysopidae) primarily hunt for smaller prey, such as aphids. Here, we investigate the tissue origin, composition and ecological role of venom in the European antlion Euroleon nostras and the green lacewing Chrysoperla carnea. We show that E. nostras venom has potent insecticidal activity, indicating its importance for efficient immobilization of large prey. C. carnea venom exerted no toxic effects, reflecting their specialization to small, non-defensive prey. Histological and proteotranscriptomic analysis revealed that antlion venom is produced in three distinct glands that secrete different proteins, indicating a functional compartmentalization of venom compounds. The venom system of E. nostras contains no bacteria, providing strong evidence that all venom compounds are of insect origin and not produced by bacterial symbionts as previously suggested. Our study provides a detailed analysis of the neuropteran venom system and new insights into venom biochemistry and function that may underpin the adaptation of antlions to their unique ecological niche.

Heat disrupts host-parasitoid interactions mediated by a viral symbiont

Project description:High temperature events can disrupt species interactions, including those among hosts, symbionts, and natural enemies. Understanding the genetic and physiological processes underlying these disruptions is a critical scientific challenge in this era of anthropogenic climate change. We explore how high temperatures disrupt the interactions among an herbivorous insect host, Manduca sexta, its insect parasitoid, Cotesia congregata, and the parasitoid’s symbiotic virus. In this system, high temperatures kill developing parasitoids, but not hosts. We evaluated the physiological and transcriptomic causes of thermal mismatch in ecological interactions using parasitoid egg in vitro experiments, immunological assays, and RNAseq. We found that high temperatures disrupt the capacity of the parasitoid’s symbiotic virus to immunosuppress the host insect, resulting in thermal mismatch and death of the parasitoid. At the transcriptomic level, key viral genes involved in suppressing host immune pathways showed reduced expression, driven by the virus’s circular genomic structure. This work is among the first to demonstrate the genetic and physiological mechanisms by which a symbiont limits the ecological functioning of host-parasite dynamics, and provides a framework for understanding how molecular processes give rise to ecological outcomes in response to high temperature events caused by climate change.

Histone deacetylase 3: A potential target fight against Helicoverpa armigera

Project description:Insect development requires genes to be expressed in strict spatiotemporal order. The degree of histone acetylation regulates insect development, via histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). Although HDAC3 is required for early embryonic development, its functions in Helicoverpa armigera remain unclear. We treated H. armigera with HDAC3 siRNA and RGFP966, a specific inhibitor, examining how HDAC3 loss-of-function affects growth and development. HDAC3 siRNA and RGFP966 treatment increased mortality at each growth-stage and altered metamorphosis, hampering pupation and causing abnormal wing development, reduced egg production, and reduced hatching rate. RNA-seq analysis identified 2,788 differentially expressed genes (≥ two-fold change; P ≤ 0.05) between siHDAC3- and siNC-treated larvae. Kr-h1, were differentially expressed in HDAC3 knockdown larvae. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed significant enrichment of genes involved in the Hippo, MAPK, and Wnt signaling pathways following HDAC3 knockdown. Histone H3K9 acetylation was increased in H. armigera after siHDAC3 treatment. In conclusion, HDAC3-knockdown dysregulated 20-hydroxyecdysone hormone-related and apoptosis-related genes in H. armigera, affecting many basic processes, including cell cycle regulation, metabolism, and signal transduction. The Result showed that HDAC3 gene can serve as a potential target for fighting against Helicoverpa armigera.
