Mitochondrial DNA phylogeography of theCotesia flavipescomplex of parasitic wasps (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)

Abstract: Abstract. The Cotesia fl avipes species complex of parasitic wasps are economically important worldwide for the biological control of lepidopteran stem borers. The complex currently comprises three species: Cotesia fl avipes Cameron, C. sesamiae (Cameron) and C. chilonis (Matsumura) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), which appear morphologically similar. Despite their economic importance, little is known about the genetic diversity and phylogeography of these parasitoids. Differences in the biology of geographic popul… Show more

“…These clustered into several distinct groups and the cox1 topology of the complex, including the paraphyly of C. sesamiae, broadly reflected that of the original study that combined cox1 and 16S (Muirhead et al 2006). Cotesia acuminata and Cotesia bignelli clustered into several groups that Kankare and Shaw (2004) also recognised as having host specificity and distinctive morphology.…”

“…There were 21 fixed nucleotide differences between all sequences in the C. glomerata cluster and the single sequence of Cotesia koebelei. The cluster containing C. rubecula from three sources (Muirhead et al 2006;Traugott et al 2006;Rattan et al unpublished) as well as an individual ascribed to Cotesia sesamiae had 17 fixed differences from C. glomerata. It is unclear whether this cluster constitutes a single morphological group because other sequences ascribed to C. sesamiae appear throughout the tree.…”

“…The monophyly of the complex is well supported by molecular (Smith and Kambhampati 1999;Michel-Salzat and Whitfield 2004;Muirhead et al 2006Muirhead et al , 2008 and morphological characters, such as a dorsoventrally compressed mesosoma (Watanabe 1965;Walker 1994, Muirhead et al 2008.…”

“…Les lépidoptères foreurs sont engagés dans des processus coévolutifs avec leurs antagonistes (Branca & Dupas 2006 ;Bruce et al 2006 ;Conlong & Goebel 2006 ;Dittrich et al 2006 ;Gitau et al 2006 ;Muirhead et al 2006 ;Wale et al 2006), processus où les facteurs de l'environnement, la plante hôte, les autres espèces hôtes potentielles des antagonistes et la contamination par Wolbachia pipientis Hertig, 1936 (Riketsiales : Rickettsiaceae), jouent un rôle prépondérant. Une meilleure connaissance de ces processus évolutifs et de leur action sur la démographie des hôtes doit permettre une meilleure gestion et utilisation de ces antagonistes pour le contrôle des populations de lépidoptères foreurs ravageurs de culture.…”
