Species Differentiation of Chinese Mollitrichosiphum (Aphididae: Greenideinae) Driven by Geographical Isolation and Host Plant Acquirement
The impact of both the uplift of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) and the separation of the Taiwan and Hainan Islands on the evolution of the fauna and flora in adjacent regions has been a topic of considerable interest. Mollitrichosiphum is a polyphagous insect group with a wide range of host plants (14 families) and distributions restricted to Southeast Asia. Based on the mitochondrial Cytoc...
متن کاملHost plant specialization driven by sexual selection.
We propose a new mechanism based on sexual selection to explain the evolution of diet breadth in insects. More specifically, we show that mate choice in females for certain diet-derived male pheromones can be exploited by maternal effect genes that preferentially place offspring on a specific host plant, resulting in specialization. Our analytical model also suggests that the process is more li...
متن کاملA new Shivaphis species (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on the Chinese endemic plant, Pteroceltis tatarinowii.
A new species of aphid in subfamily Calaphidinae, Shivaphis pteroceltis sp. n., is described from China. This aphid feeds on Pteroceltis tatarinowii, an endemic tree commonly planted as an ornamental in China and used in the production of Xuan paper. The life cycle is described, and the descriptions of fundatrices, apterous and alate viviparae, oviparae and males are provided. COI sequences hav...
متن کاملA new species of Mollitrichosiphum Suenaga from Taiwan Island (Hemiptera, Aphididae), based on morphological characteristics and DNA sequences
A new species of Mollitrichosiphum Suenaga, Mollitrichosiphum tumorisiphum Qiao & Jiang, sp. n., from Fagus longipetiolata in Taiwan island is described. Siphunculi of Mollitrichosiphum tumorisiphum in alatae are distinctly swollen on the distal part, unlike those of the other known species in the genus. Updated keys to apterous and alate viviparous females of all known Chinese species of Molli...
متن کاملLife history traits of melon ladybeetle, Epilachna chrysomelina (Col.: Coccinellidae), on four host plant species
کفشدوزک خربزه، Epilachna chrysomelina (F.)، یکی از آفات کلیدی گیاهان جالیزی در آسیا و شمال آفریقا میباشد. طول دورهی رشد، تولید مثل و پارامترهای جدول زندگی این کفشدوزک روی گیاهان هندوانه، خیار چنبر، خیار و خربزه در شرایط آزمایشگاهی (دمای 30 درجهی سیلسیوس، رطوبت نسبی 60 درصد و طول دورهی روشنایی به تاریکی 14 به 10 ساعت) مطالعه شد. میانگین طول دورهی زندگی از تخم تا مرحلهی بلوغ ماده روی هندوانه، خیا...
