Data from: Transgenerational effects of doxycycline and anhydrotetracycline on the microbiome of the Australian sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina
<p>Tetracyclines are a family of broad-spectrum antibiotics commonly used in agriculture, medicine, and research. However, exposure to tetracyclines is associated with a wide range of negative health outcomes. In some cases, these negative effects are transgenerational: when individuals are treated with tetracyclines, their untreated offspring exhibit phenotypic abnormalities. The causes of such transgenerational effects are not well-understood, but disruption of the microbiome and/or mitochondria may play an important role. Transgenerational effects from tetracyclines may threaten the success of an environmentally-friendly form of pest control, the release of transgenic males carrying a tetracycline-repressible female lethal gene. In this study, we investigated the direct and transgenerational effects of two tetracycline-class antibiotics, doxycycline (DOX) and anhydrotetracycline (ATC), on the blowfly<em> Lucilia cuprina</em>, a facultative parasite of sheep. To simulate the rearing conditions used in a male-only release program, blowflies were reared on diet alone, or diet plus DOX or ATC, for three generations, then reared for an additional fourth generation off tetracyclines. We used 16S amplicon sequencing and qPCR to examine whole-body microbiome composition and bacterial and mitochondrial DNA abundance in third and fourth generation flies. The microbiomes of third generation flies reared on DOX or ATC were similar in composition and diversity to the microbiomes of flies reared exclusively on the control diet. However, we found that the untreated fourth generation offspring of DOX- or ATC-treated flies displayed major shifts in microbiome composition relative to both their treated parents and untreated control groups. Our study supports a growing body of evidence that tetracyclines exert both direct and transgenerational effects on arthropods, and highlights the need to address these impacts in the context of insect pest management.</p>

Data from: The evolution of sexually dimorphic cuticular hydrocarbons in blowflies (Diptera: Calliphoridae)Cuticular hydrocarbons of Australian Chrysomya (Diptera: Calliphoridae)
<p>Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) are organic compounds found on the cuticles of all insects which can act as close-contact pheromones, while also providing a hydrophobic barrier to water loss. Given their widespread importance in sexual behaviour and survival, CHCs have likely contributed heavily to the adaptation and speciation of insects. Despite this, the patterns and mechanisms of their diversification have been studied in very few taxa. This dataset constitutes the first of CHCs in Australian <em>Chrysomya </em>blowflies. The data demonstrate that blowflies express an exceptional diversity of CHCs, which have diversified in a non-phylogenetic and punctuated manner, are species-specific, and sexually dimorphic. </p>

Temperature stress induces mites to help their carrion beetle hosts by eliminating rival blowflies
<p>Ecological conditions are known to change the expression of mutualisms though the causal agents driving such changes remain poorly understood. Here we show that temperature stress modulates the harm threatened by a common enemy, and thereby induces a phoretic mite to become a protective mutualist. Our experiments focus on the interactions between the burying beetle <i>Nicrophorus vespilloides</i>, an associated mite species <i>Poecilochirus carabi</i> and their common enemy, blowflies, when all three species reproduce on the same small vertebrate carrion. We show that mites compete with beetle larvae for food in the absence of blowflies, and reduce beetle reproductive success. However, when blowflies breed on the carrion too, mites enhance beetle reproductive success by eating blowfly eggs. High densities of mites are especially effective at promoting beetle reproductive success at higher and lower natural ranges in temperature, when blowfly larvae are more potent rivals for the limited resources on the carcass.</p>
