Abstract:
Solitary bees are important pollinators of crops, with species in the family Megachilidae (mason bees) being used for orchard pollination. Commercial movement of these bees also moves their microbiota, including bacterial endosymbionts capable of reproductive manipulation. To test for presence of these bacteria, I screened commercially available species of US orchard pollinators and locally captured solitary bees from Kentucky. I also set up mason bee boxes in five apple orchards to examine recruitment of local pollinators. I conducted 454-pyrosequencing to determine bacterial diversity within

Abstract:
Most animals contain chronic microbial infections that inflict no harm on their hosts. Recently, the gut microflora of humans and other animals have been characterized. However, little is known about the forces that shape the diversity of these bacterial communities. In this work, comparative genomics was used to investigate the evolutionary dynamics of host-adapted bacterial communities, using Wolbachia infecting arthropods and Lactobacteria infecting bees as the main model systems. Wolbachia are maternally inherited bacteria that cause reproductive disorders in arthropods, such as feminizati

Abstract:
Wolbachia are maternally transmitted endosymbionts that naturally infect approximately 40% of all insect species and impose a range of phenotypic effects upon their hosts, including feminization, parthenogenesis, cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) and male-killing. The genetic basis and mechanisms of these phenotypes remain mostly undetermined. Investigating new strains of Wolbachia can provide important insight into the biology of the symbiosis. In Drosophila pandora, two distinct Wolbachia strains co-exist to manipulate host reproduction, which are wPanCI (causing CI) and wPanMK (causing male-

Abstract:
Wolbachia (Alphaproteobacteria) is an inherited endosymbiont of arthropods and filarial nematodes and was reported to be widespread across insect taxa. While Wolbachia’s effects on host biology are not understood from most of these hosts, known Wolbachia-induced phenotypes cover a spectrum from obligate beneficial mutualism to reproductive manipulations and pathogenicity. Interestingly, data on Wolbachia within the most species-rich order of arthropods, the Coleoptera (beetles), are scarce. Therefore, we screened 128 species from seven beetle families (Buprestidae, Hydraenidae, Dytiscidae, Hyd

Abstract:
Reciprocal and homologous crosses were carried out using pairs or groups of twenty males and females for three biotypes of the whitefly Bemisia tabaci complex. Crosses were undertaken for the A biotype-Arizona (AzA), the B biotype-Africa (AzB), and the monophagous, Jatropha (Jat) biotype-Puerto Rico. The maternal haplotype pedigree of parents and selected offspring (F₁, F₂) was determined using the mitochondria cytochome oxidase I sequence. All reciprocal crosses yielded viable female offspring, indicating reproductively compatibility, except for AzB♀ x AzA♂, or AzB♀ x Jat♂ crosses, which yiel

Elas foram introduzidas de forma acidental em diversas regiões biogeográficas do mundo. No Brasil possuem ampla distribuição, mas têm preferência por áreas de atividade humana. São formigas altamente agressivas e são responsáveis por acidentes que podem levar a choques anafiláticos e à morte. As formigas apresentam assoc
