Abstract:
Pheromones are chemical signals that induce innate responses in individuals of the same species that may vary with physiological and developmental state. In Drosophila melanogaster, the most intensively studied pheromone is 11-cis-vaccenyl acetate (cVA), which is synthezised in the male ejaculatory bulb and is transferred to the female during copulation. Among other effects, cVA inhibits male courtship of mated females. We found that male courtship inhibition depends on the amount of cVA and this effect is reduced in male flies derived from eggs covered with low to zero levels of cVA. This effect is not observed if the eggs are washed, or if the eggs are laid several days after copulation. This suggests that courtship suppression involves a form of pre-imaginal conditioning, which we show occurs during the early larval stage. The conditioning effect could not be rescued by synthetic cVA, indicating that it largely depends on conditioning by cVA and other maternally-transmitted factor(s). These experiments suggest that one of the primary behavioral effects of cVA is more plastic and less stereotypical than had hitherto been realised.

Abstract:
Obesity is a growing public health issue with few effective treatments. Many of the human genes involved in weight regulation have homologues in other species. In Drosophila melanogaster, 11-cis-vaccenyl acetate (cVA) is a pheromone shown to affect both aggression and feeding behaviour. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cVA exposure on gene expression in wild type flies and to confirm crosses with genetic knockouts in the cVA pathway. The genes studied in the wild type flies were Akh (homologue of glucagon), Dilp2,-3 and -5 (homologues of insulin), Dsk (homologue of cholecystokinin), sNPF (homologue of neuropeptide Y) and TβH. The knockout genes studied were Or65a, Or67d and TβH. RNA was extracted from whole heads, cDNA synthesis was performed and the cDNA was then used in SYBR Green RT-qPCR. The knockout genes were not confirmed, due to methodological problems. The expression of Dilp3, Dilp5 and Dsk were significantly lower in the experimental flies, the expression of the other genes where not affected. The results indicate that exposure to cVA affects the expression of some of the neuropeptides involved in weight regulation. Due to the methodological problems experienced, a recommendation is to confirm the data using different reagents.

Abstract:
Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae), an invasive pest from Asia, colonized US and Europe in 2008 and since then has economically damaged multi-million commercial fruit production. With fruit-breaking serrated ovipositor the female lays eggs in the unwounded ripening fruits making them unmarketable. To know the genetic likelihood of D. suzukii with other Drosophila species its genome and transcriptome were sequenced. The whole genome was mined to understand the origin, speciation and adaptation and was correlated with the ecology of the species. Genomic analyses revealed that D. suzukii is adapted to temperate climate and has lower selective pressure and gene-sequencing rate compared to its sibling sp. D. biarmipes. From the genomic and ecological studies, one of the objectives was to understand the role of olfaction in host fruit recognition and identify key volatile compound/s involved in female decision-making for oviposition on fresh fruits. Based on gas chromatography mass spectrometer (GC-MS) and GC-electro-antennal detector activity, isoamylacetate was found to be one of the key compounds involved in the oviposition site selection. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that D. suzukii not only possess the full repertoire of genes encoding olfactory receptors activated by isoamyl acetate in D. melanogaster, but showed that Or67a (Or67a1 to Or67a5) is even represented by duplicated copies. Another aim was to investigate the pheromone communication in this species. The extraction and identification of cuticular hydrocarbons from the males inherently showed that the species trans-evolved by terminating the production of sex pheromone cis vaccenyl acetate (cVA), which is used by species throughout melanogaster group, but able to smell it with ‘fewer’ T1 sensilla. Being under highly selective pressure D. suzukii has i) scaled-down the size of ejaculatory bulb in males, ii) fewer T1 tricoid sensilla, and iii) comparatively smaller glomerulus, in the antennal lobe (AL), involved in receiving sensory impulses from T1 sensilla when compared to D. melanogaster. However D. suzukii shares all functional fatty acid synthase (FAS) genes responsible to CH production. On applying D. melanogaster male equivalent synthetic cVA on males of D. suzukii, it significantly reduced the mating acceptance in the females, which otherwise increased in D. melanogaster. Therefore, by adapting not to produce cVA as a sex pheromone D. suzukii tend to avoid competition with congeneric species for oviposition. The whole spectrum of the present and future studies would help to understand the evolution of the olfactory code among the closely related species of Drosophila and, as a consequence, contribute to develop alternative control methods of D. suzukii. Indeed, comparison of D. suzukii with sibling species and D. melanogaster could shed light on the evolution of ecological innovations and help researchers in understanding what makes a species to be an invasive pest
