“…However, genetic recombination in regions of interest was reported to be suppressed, presumably because of an inversion occurring on the Z chromosome of O. nubilalis (Wadsworth et al, 2015). Suppression of genetic recombination makes linkage analysis difficult; and therefore, (Kim et al, 1999). As shown in Figure 2, using three common O. nubilalis BAC probes previously located on chromosome 5, we obtained clear signals in the same order on a single chromosome of these five species.…”

A significant feature of the genomes of Lepidoptera, butterflies and moths, is the high conservation of chromosome organization. Recent remarkable progress in genome sequencing of Lepidoptera has revealed that syntenic gene order is extensively conserved across phylogenetically distant species. The ancestral karyotype of Lepidoptera is thought to be n = 31; however, that of the most well-studied moth, Bombyx mori, is n = 28, and diverse studies suggest that three chromosomal fusion events occurred in this lineage. To identify the boundaries between predicted ancient fusions involving B. mori chromosomes 11, 23 and 24, we constructed fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based chromosome maps of the European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis (n = 31). We first determined a 511 Mb genomic sequence of the Asian corn borer, O. furnacalis, a congener of O. nubilalis, and isolated bacterial artificial chromosomes and fosmid clones that were expected to localize in candidate regions for the boundaries using these sequences. Combined with FISH and genetic analysis, we narrowed down the candidate regions to 40 kb-1.5 Mb, in strong agreement with a previous estimate based on the genome of a butterfly, Melitaea cinxia. The significant difference in the lengths of the candidate regions where no functional genes were observed may reflect the evolutionary time after fusion events.

“…In the first, based on morphological data (Mutuura and Munroe, 1970), the group III trilobed uncus species group is divided into two subgroups: one containing ACB, ECB, and Ostrinia orientalis; and a second containing Ostrinia scapulalis, Ostrinia zaguliaevi, and Ostrinia zealis. In the second proposed phylogeny, based on mitochondrial COII gene sequence analysis (Ishikawa et al, 1999b;Kim et al, 1999), the subgroups of group III are not supported, and ACB is placed basal to the remaining five species. Based on the existing knowledge about the pheromone systems in Ostrinia, the following sequence of changes were proposed to have occurred: (1) the most ancestral form (as yet unidentified) most likely utilized E11-14:OAc alone, based on the fact that one of the most basal species, Ostrinia latipennis, uses only E11-14:OH; (2) species evolved that used mixtures of Z/E11-14:OAc, such as Ostrinia palustralis; (3) species evolved using Z/E11-14:OAc + Z9-14: OAc as a three-component blend (O. zaguliaevi and O. zealis); (4) species evolved, such as ECB and O. scapulalis, in which Z9-14:OAc has switched functionality and is an antagonist component of the communication system.…”

More Rare Males in Ostrinia: Response of Asian Corn Borer Moths to the Sex Pheromone of the European Corn Borer

A previous flight tunnel study showed that 3-5% of European corn borer (ECB) moths, Ostrinia nubilalis (Z/E11-14:OAc), could fly upwind and make contact with sources releasing the sex pheromone of the related Asian corn borer (ACB), Ostrinia furnacalis (2:1 Z/E12-14:OAc). In this study, we show that rare males (3-4%) are also present in South Korean ACB that respond to the sex pheromone blends of the ECB UZ (97:3 Z/E11-14: OAc) and BE (1:99 Z/E11-14:OAc) pheromone races. We also show that the upwind flight response of a significant proportion of male ACB was antagonized by the addition of 1% Z9-14:OAc to the ACB blend, a compound that also antagonizes the upwind flight of ECB males. Male ACB flight behavior was not, however, affected by adding either of the ECB blends to the ACB blend, or by the addition of 50% 14:OAc, a compound identified from female pheromone glands of ACB and a number of other Ostrinia species. Additional flight tunnel tests with ACB to study the comparative aspects of ECB and ACB pheromone response specificity showed that male ACB exhibited maximal levels of upwind flight and source contact with doses of pheromone (30 and 100 μg on rubber septum sources) that also elicited maximal levels in the two ECB pheromone races. The maximal level of source contact for ACB (66%) was lower than observed with the UZ race of ECB to its pheromone blend (>95%), but comparable to those for the BE race of ECB (65-70%). Male ACB also flew upwind in high proportions to a broader range of ratios of Z/E12-14:OAc (80:20 to 20:80) than was previously observed for either of the ECB races.

“…mtDNA variations and haplotypes mtDNA sequence variations: Total DNA was extracted from the heads of fifth instar larvae according to the protocol described by Estoup et al (1996). We amplified a 1882 bp mtDNA region starting (position 1) at nucleotide position 267 of the cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) (Caterino et al, 2001) and ending (position 1882) at position 531 of the cytochrome oxidase subunit II (COII) (Kim et al, 1999), including the entire tRNA leu . This mtDNA region was amplified for 15 individuals from three geographically separated populations (populations Car, Wol described in Bourguet et al (2000a) and population Chti described in Bourguet et al (2000b)).…”

Host-plant-associated genetic differentiation in Northern French populations of the European corn borer

The phytophagous insects that damage crops are often polyphagous, feeding on several types of crop and on weeds. The refuges constituted by noncrop host plants may be useful in managing the evolution in pest species of resistance to the Bacillus thuringiensis toxins produced by transgenic crops. However, the benefits of these refuges may be limited because host-plant diversity may drive genetic divergence and possibly even host-plant-mediated sympatric speciation. The European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis Hü bner (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), is the main pest of maize in Europe and North America, where it was introduced early in the 20th century. It has a wide host range but feeds principally on mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris L.) and maize (Zea mays L.). O. nubilalis is found on mugwort only in the northern part of France, whereas it is found on maize throughout France. The extent of genetic variation at allozyme markers was investigated in populations collected from the two host plants over the entire geographical distribution of the European corn borer on mugwort in France. Allelic differentiation between pairs of populations and hierarchical analyses of pools of samples from each host plant indicate that the group of populations feeding on maize differed from the group of populations feeding on mugwort. Our results suggest (1) host-plant-related divergent selection at the genomic region surrounding the Mpi locus and (2) limited gene flow between the populations feeding on mugwort and those infesting maize fields. These data indicate that adults emerging from mugwort would not be useful for managing the evolution of resistance to the B. thuringiensis toxins in European corn borer populations.
