Susceptibility of Red Flour Beetle Life Stages to Elevated Temperatures Rizana Mahroof, Kun Yan Zhu, and Bhadriraju Subramanyam Kansas State University

Overview Introduction Objectives Methods Results Conclusions Future work

What is the Rationale for Using Heat to Kill Insects? Resistance in insects to chemicals, including fumigants Facility not suitable for fumigation Companies do not want to use chemicals Environmental problems associated with chemical use

Thermal Death Effects of Heat on Insects Heat paralysis / anesthesia Asphyxiation (production of excess CO2) Coagulation of protoplasm Coagulation of proteins Destruction of enzymes essential to nerve conduction Decrease of hemolymph pH Desiccation and cellular abnormalities cause death

Susceptibility of Insects to Elevated Temperatures Mortality depends on many factors Environmental conditions (Temperature, RH) Species Stage and age of insects Temperature history Heat tolerance

How Heat Tolerance is Acquired ? Thermal acclimation Through selection Synthesis of Stress Proteins/Heat Shock Proteins (HSP) Refolding of denatured proteins Stabilizing proteins by removal of coagulated proteins Folding and translocation of polypeptides Assembly and disassembly of oligomeric protein complex Roles in immune responses HSP 73 is constitutive and HSP 72 stress-inducible

Objective 1 Test Insects Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), Red Flour Beetle (Tenebrionidae: Coleoptera) Objective 1 To identify the most heat tolerant stage of T. castaneum ?

Materials and Methods T. castaneum life stages Eggs (2-d-old) Young larvae (6-d-old) Old larvae (22-d-old) Pupae (26-d-old) Adults (2-wk-after emergence) http://bru.gmprc.ksu.edu/ImageDB

Life stages exposed to high temperatures 42, 46, 50, 54, 58 and 60oC For varying lengths of time 5 boxes containing 20 individuals per box for each time interval Reared at 28oC and 65% RH Mortality recorded

Objective 2 Test Insects Does heat shock protein (HSP 70) mediate heat tolerance in T. castaneum? Test Insects T. castaneum Eggs Young larvae Old larvae Pupae Adults

Heat Shock Protein Analysis 28 and 40oC (1 hour) and 23oC control Total protein concentration BCA assay with kinetic microplate reader Standard protein curve Standard amount of protein loaded: 80 µg / well

Heat Shock Protein Analysis (Cont….) Western Blot Technique 4-20% Tris-glycine pre-cast gels (1.3% bis-acrylamide; Invitrogen) Standard HSP - HSP 70 from bovine brain (Sigma) Molecular size marker – The MagicMarkTM Western Standard (Invitrogen) Primary antibody – Monoclonal anti HSP 70 from mouse immunized with bovine brain HSP70 (clone BRM 22, Sigma) Secondary antibody - Anti-mouse IgG conjugated with alkaline phosphatase (Invitrogen) Immunodetection performed using the chemiluminescent method and the membrane exposed to X-Ray film for 2 mins.

Gray Value Quantification of Protein Bands Bands quantified using densitometric image analysis system (Ambis Imaging System and GelExpert Analysis System; Nucleotech Corporation). Absolute gray values quantified after background subtraction The gray value of the 23oC samples (control) set arbitrarily to 100% as standard reference. The relative percentage of gray values for 28 and 40oC calculated based on standard reference. Data analyzed using Proc GLM and mean separation done using Fisher’s least significant difference (LSD). Results given as percentage relative HSP 70 values ± standard error

HSP Detected in Adults Exposed to Different Temperatures MM HSP 23oC 28oC 40oC kDa 120 100 80 60 50 40 30 20 73 Calculated molecular mass of HSP (70) is 75 kDa F = 0.76; d.f. = 2; P = > 0.05; n = 4 (Proc GLM, LSD)

Summary Young larvae were the most heat tolerant stage while eggs were the least heat tolerant. The expression of HSP 70 in young larvae was significantly increased by about 33% when temperature increased from 23 to 40oC. However, for eggs the expression of HSP 70 decreased by about 35%. For old larvae, pupae and adults the expression of HSP 70 did not vary significantly. Increased thermotolernace in young larvae could be due to either increased expression of HSP70 at higher temperatures and / or the additional HSP with lower molecular mass of 24 kDa. Reduced thermotolerance in eggs may be due to the denaturation of HSP70 with increasing temperatures.
