Disrupting butterfly caterpillar microbiomes does not impact their survival and development.

Project description:Associations with gut microbes are believed to play crucial roles in the physiology, immune function, development and behaviour of insects. However, microbiome sequencing has recently suggested that butterflies are an anomaly, because their microbiomes do not show strong host- and developmental stage-specific associations. We experimentally manipulated butterfly larval gut microbiota and found that disrupting gut microbes had little influence on larval survival and development. Larvae of the butterflies Danaus chrysippus and Ariadne merione that fed on chemically sterilized or antibiotic-treated host plant leaves had significantly reduced bacterial loads, and their gut bacterial communities were disrupted substantially. However, neither host species treated this way suffered a significant fitness cost: across multiple experimental blocks, treated and control larvae had similar survival, growth and development. Furthermore, re-introducing microbes from the excreta of control larvae did not improve larval growth and survival. Thus, these butterfly larvae did not appear to rely on specialized gut bacteria for digestion, detoxification, biomass accumulation and metamorphosis. Our experiments thus show that dependence on gut bacteria for growth and survival is not a universal phenomenon across insects. Our findings also caution that strategies which target gut microbiomes may not always succeed in controlling Lepidopteran pests.

Duplication and expression evolution of butterfly mouthparts genes associated with feeding

Project description:We sequenced the mRNA of three species of Heliconius butterfly and Eueides isabella in order to identify genes upregulated in the mouthparts tissues. Sequencing libraries were produced for three tissues types (mouthparts, legs and antennae), for one male and one female of each species.

Dispersal, flight metabolism and gene expression in the Glanville fritillary butterfly

Project description:We have measured flight effect in gene expression using individual-based RNA-seq data from two regional populations of the Glanville fritillary butterfly (Melitaea cinxia). Largest number of differentially expressed genes were between populations (3840 genes) and between males and females (1622 genes). 801 genes had significant flight effect. Enriched GO and KEGG categories among these genes included hypoxia, glycolysis, and TCA cycle.

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.
