Physiological and transcriptional changes associated with obligate aestivation in the cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala). INSECT BIOCHEMISTRY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2024; 173:104165. [PMID: 39089389 DOI: 10.1016/j.ibmb.2024.104165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2024] [Revised: 07/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/25/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024]
Abstract
Aestivation is a form of seasonal dormancy observed in various insect species, usually coinciding with the summer season. The cabbage stem flea beetle, Psylliodes chrysocephala (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), is a key pest of oilseed rape that obligatorily aestivates as adult in late summer. Since the physiological and transcriptional processes linked to aestivation in P. chrysocephala are still little understood, we analyzed relevant physiological parameters and performed RNA-seq analyses on laboratory-reared beetles in their pre-aestivation, aestivation, and post-aestivation stages. We found that the beetles reached aestivation at 15 days post-eclosion, showing strongly reduced metabolic activity, with less than 50% CO2 production, compared to pre-aestivating individuals. Under constant laboratory conditions, the beetles aestivated for about 25 days. Female beetles reached reproductive maturity at a median of 52 days post-eclosion. Furthermore, aestivating beetles had significantly reduced carbohydrate reserves and increased lipid reserves compared with pre-aestivating beetles, indicating that aestivation is associated with drastic changes in energy metabolism. Aestivating beetles contained 30% less water and their survival rates under high-temperature conditions (30 °C) were 40% higher compared to pre-aestivating beetles. RNA-seq studies showed that, in particular, gene ontology terms related to carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, digestion, and mitochondrial activity were enriched, with clear differences in transcript abundance between beetles in aestivation compared to pre- or post-aestivation. Specifically, mitochondrial transcripts, such as respiratory chain I subunits, and digestion-related transcripts, such as trypsin, were less abundant during aestivation, which supports the idea that aestivation is associated with decreased metabolic activity. This study represents the first exploration of the transcriptomic and physiological processes linked to aestivation in P. chrysocephala.

Cold tolerance and metabolism of red-haired pine bark beetle Hylurgus ligniperda (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) during the overwintering period. JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY 2024:toae137. [PMID: 38956822 DOI: 10.1093/jee/toae137] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2024] [Revised: 05/19/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024]
Abstract
Hylurgus ligniperda invaded Shandong, China, through imported forest timber, posing a threat to China's forest health. Exotic insects with broad environmental tolerance, including low temperatures, may have a better chance of surviving the winters and becoming invasive. Understanding the cold-tolerance strategies of H. ligniperda may help to design sustainable pest management approaches. In this study, we aim to investigate the cold-tolerance ability and relevant physiological indicators in overwintering H. ligniperda adults to determine any possible overwintering strategies. Supercooling points (SCPs) for adults H. ligniperda differed significantly across months and reached the lowest level in the mid- and post-overwintering period, the minimum SCPs -6.45 ± 0.18 °C. As the cold exposure temperature decreased, the survival rate of adults gradually decreased, and no adult survived more than 1 day at -15 °C, and the LLT50 for 1 day was -7.1 °C. Since H. ligniperda adults can survive internal ice formation, they are freeze-tolerant insects. Throughout the overwintering period, the SCPs and the water, protein, sorbitol, and glycerol content in adults decreased initially and then increased. We reported significant correlations between total protein, sorbitol, trehalose, and glycerol content in the beetles and SCPs. Glycogen, lipid, protein, trehalose, and sorbitol content in adult beetles may directly affect their cold-tolerance capacity and survival during winter. This study provides a physiological and biochemical basis for further study of metabolism and cold-tolerance strategies in H. ligniperda adults, which may help predict population dynamics and distribution potential of pests.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The adaptive mechanisms of agricultural pests are the key to understanding the evolution of the pests and to developing new control strategies. However, there are few studies on the genetic basis of adaptations of agricultural pests. The turnip moth, Agrotis segetum (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is an important underground pest that affects a wide range of host plants and has a strong capacity to adapt to new environments. It is thus a good model for studying the adaptive evolution of pest species. RESULTS We assembled a high-quality reference genome of A. segetum using PacBio reads. Then, we constructed a variation map of A. segetum by resequencing 98 individuals collected from six natural populations in China. The analysis of the population structure showed that all individuals were divided into four well-differentiated populations, corresponding to their geographical distribution. Selective sweep analysis and environmental association studies showed that candidate genes associated with local adaptation were functionally correlated with detoxification metabolism and glucose metabolism. CONCLUSIONS Our study of A. segetum has provided insights into the genetic mechanisms of local adaptation and evolution; it has also produced genetic resources for developing new pest management strategies.

Abstract
Mammalian developmental timing is adjustable in vivo by preserving pre-implantation embryos in a dormant state called diapause. Inhibition of the growth regulator mTOR (mTORi) pauses mouse development in vitro, yet how embryonic dormancy is maintained is not known. Here we show that mouse embryos in diapause are sustained by using lipids as primary energy source. In vitro, supplementation of embryos with the metabolite L-carnitine balances lipid consumption, puts the embryos in deeper dormancy and boosts embryo longevity. We identify FOXO1 as an essential regulator of the energy balance in dormant embryos and propose, through meta-analyses of dormant cell signatures, that it may be a common regulator of dormancy across adult tissues. Our results lift a constraint on in vitro embryo survival and suggest that lipid metabolism may be a critical metabolic transition relevant for longevity and stem cell function across tissues.

Abstract
In seasonal environments, many animals, including insects, enter dormancy, where they are limited to a fixed energy budget. The inability to replenish energetic stores during these periods suggests insects should be constrained by pre-dormancy energy stores. Over the last century, the community of researchers working on survival during dormancy has operated under the strong assumption that energy limitation is a key fitness trait driving the evolution of seasonal strategies. That is, energy use has to be minimized during dormancy because insects otherwise run out of energy and die during dormancy, or are left with too little energy to complete development, reproductive maturation or other costly post-dormancy processes such as dispersal or nest building. But if energy is so strongly constrained during dormancy, how can some insects - even within the same species and population - be dormant in very warm environments or show prolonged dormancy for many successive years? In this Commentary, we discuss major assumptions regarding dormancy energetics and outline cases where insects appear to align with our assumptions and where they do not. We then highlight several research directions that could help link organismal energy use with landscape-level changes. Overall, the optimal energetic strategy during dormancy might not be to simply minimize metabolic rate, but instead to maintain a level that matches the demands of the specific life-history strategy. Given the influence of temperature on energy use rates of insects in winter, understanding dormancy energetic strategies is critical in order to determine the potential impacts of climate change on insects in seasonal environments.

Short CA, Hahn DA. Fat enough for the winter? Does nutritional status affect diapause? JOURNAL OF INSECT PHYSIOLOGY 2023; 145:104488.

Abstract
Many insects enter a dormant state termed diapause in anticipation of seasonal inhospitable conditions. Insects drastically reduce their feeding during diapause. Their reduced nutrient intake is paired with substantial nutrient costs: maintaining basal metabolism during diapause, repairing tissues damaged by adverse conditions, and resuming development after diapause. Many investigators have asked "Does nutrition affect diapause?" In this review, we survey the studies that have attempted to address this question. We propose the term nutritional status, a holistic view of nutrition that explicitly includes the perception, intake, and storage of the great breadth of nutrients. We examine the studies that have sought to test if nutrition affects diapause, trying to identify specific facets of nutritional status that affect diapause phenotypes. Curiously, low quality host plants during the diapause induction phase generally induce diapause, but food deprivation during the same phase generally averts diapause. Using the geometric framework of nutrition to identify specific dietary components that affect diapause may reconcile these contrasting findings. This framework can establish nutritionally permissive space, distinguishing nutrient changes that affect diapause from changes that induce other dormancies. Refeeding is another important experimental technique that distinguishes between diapause and quiescence, a non-diapause dormancy. We also find insufficient evidence for the hypothesis that nutrient stores regulate diapause length and suggest manipulations to investigate the role of nutrient stores in diapause termination. Finally, we propose mechanisms that could interface nutritional status with the diapause program, focusing on combined action of the nutritional axis between the gut, fat body, and brain.

Abstract
How different macronutrients are utilized at various stages of pupal diapause and the effects of winter length on nutrient reserves remain poorly studied for most insects. Western cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis indifferens (Diptera: Tephritidae), is a specialist on cherries in higher latitudes or elevations in western North America that exhibits a obligate pupal diapause requiring chilling before adult development can occur. We determined the relationship between metabolic reserves and diapause status in R. indifferens pupae, testing the hypotheses that lipids are the primary reserves utilized during diapause and that long periods of warmth deplete these reserves more than periods of cold. Effects of 0- to 20-week durations at 3°C and subsequent exposure to 23°C and 16:8 L:D (warm rearing conditions) for 0 to 7 weeks on lipid, protein, soluble carbohydrates, and glycogen reserves of R. indifferens pupae were determined. During diapause, lipid reserves were the primary source of energy utilized by R. indifferens, while protein and soluble carbohydrates levels were stable throughout diapause and thus less utilized. At post-diapause, glycogen levels fluctuated the most, indicating that lipid reserves were utilized to produce glycogen to support metabolism for adult fly development. Unchilled pupae did not deplete lipid reserves, unlike chilled pupae, likely because unchilled pupae remained in diapause. Rhagoletis indifferens may have evolved a nutrient utilization strategy typical of rigid diapausing insects in higher latitude environments.

Abstract
Ostreolysin A6 (OlyA6) is a protein produced by the oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus). It binds to membrane sphingomyelin/cholesterol domains, and together with its protein partner, pleurotolysin B (PlyB), it forms 13-meric transmembrane pore complexes. Further, OlyA6 binds 1000 times more strongly to the insect-specific membrane sphingolipid, ceramide phosphoethanolamine (CPE). In concert with PlyB, OlyA6 has potent and selective insecticidal activity against the western corn rootworm. We analysed the histological alterations of the midgut wall columnar epithelium of western corn rootworm larvae fed with OlyA6/PlyB, which showed vacuolisation of the cell cytoplasm, swelling of the apical cell surface into the gut lumen, and delamination of the basal lamina underlying the epithelium. Additionally, cryo-electron microscopy was used to explore the membrane interactions of the OlyA6/PlyB complex using lipid vesicles composed of artificial lipids containing CPE, and western corn rootworm brush border membrane vesicles. Multimeric transmembrane pores were formed in both vesicle preparations, similar to those described for sphingomyelin/cholesterol membranes. These results strongly suggest that the molecular mechanism of insecticidal action of OlyA6/PlyB arises from specific interactions of OlyA6 with CPE, and the consequent formation of transmembrane pores in the insect midgut.
