This book was released on 2015 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speciation is the process by which life diversifies into discrete forms, and understanding its underlying mechanisms remains a primary focus for biologists. Increasingly, empirical studies are helping explain the role of ecology in generating biodiversity. Adaptive radiations are often propelled by selective fitness tradeoffs experienced by individuals that invade new habitats, resulting in reproductive isolation from ancestral conspecifics and potentially cladogenesis. Host specialist insects are among the most speciose organisms known and serve as highly useful models for studying adaptive radiations. We are just beginning to understand the pace and degree with which these insects diversify. The apple maggot, Rhagoletis pomonella, is a well-studied insect whose eastern and southern populations are models for ecological speciation. Recently (40–65 ya), the fly has invaded the Pacific Northwestern United States through human-transported apples infested with larvae. There, populations of R. pomonella have rapidly colonized two novel hawthorn hosts whose fruiting times bracket apple’s (early-season native Crataegus douglasii and introduced C. monogyna, which fruits late in the season). The recent introduction might initiate host shifts, providing opportunities to examine the pace and mechanistic means with which host races (an evolutionary stage preceding speciation) become established. Here, I demonstrate that host-associated populations at a site in southwest Washington are partially allochronically isolated from one another, and life cycles temporally match with natal host fruit ripening times in sympatry. If spatially widespread, these temporal barriers could result in reproductive isolation and possibly cladogenesis. Implications of these findings reach beyond academic import, as R. pomonella is expanding not only its host range, but its geographic range is encroaching upon central Washington, the site of a multi-billion dollar per year apple-growing industry.

This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast to many apple production areas, the phenology of the apple maggot, Rhagoletis pomonella (Walsh), is not well understood in North Carolina and other areas of the Southern Appalachian Mountains. Studies in western North Carolina in the 1970's reported a single flight period that occurred from mid-June to mid-September, with peak fight activity occurring in late July. More recent monitoring in Henderson County, NC, showed evidence of a bimodal emergence, with the first emergence occurring in late May to early June, and the second from mid July through August. It was not clear if this represented a bimodal emergence pattern or completion of two generations. The objectives of this study were to gain a better understanding of the phenology of the apple maggot in apple-producing regions of the Southern Appalachian Mountains, to examine the post-diapause development requirements among early and late-emerging populations in North Carolina, and to determine if phenologically and geographically distinct apple maggot populations could be differentiated genetically using the COI gene of mitochondrial DNA. Apple maggot flight was monitored in abandoned apple orchards in western North Carolina and South Carolina that represented a diversity of elevations. A distinct bimodal flight pattern was observed at all locations. A second generation was also observed at lower elevations (300-330 m) in Polk County, NC, and Spartanburg County, SC. Only one generation was evident at higher elevations (>600 m) in North Carolina. Among early and late-emerging groups, the post-diapause developmental period was shorter in the early emerging groups compared to late-emerging groups. Based on sequences of the mitochondrial gene COI, no significant differences were found between early or late-emerging groups. Furthermore, analysis of the COI gene did not detect geographic isolation among populations from North Carolina, South Carolina, Massachusetts, and West Virginia, or among populati.
