Abstract:

【Objective】 In honeybees, methyl palmitate (MP), methyl oleate (MO), methyl linoleate (ML) and methyl linolenate (MLN) are important capping pheromone components, which trigger the capping behavior of adult workers. The objective of this study is to compare the contents of these four pheromone components in the larvae of workers and drones of Apis cernana at different capping stages, analyze their biosynthetic pathways, and to further explore the mechanism of pheromone communication between larvae and adult workers. 【Method】Using A. c. cernana as the experimental material, the larvae of workers and drones of prior to be capped, in the process of being capped and had been capped were collected for comparing the contents of these four pheromone components by using GC/MS. Simultaneously, RNA-seq was used for gene expression analysis, and the biosynthetic pathways were speculated based on KEGG enrichment of differential expressed genes. 【Result】In worker larvae, the contents of the four capping pheromone components were significantly higher at the capping and capped stage than those of the prior to be capped larvae, and the contents of MP and MO significantly increased with aging of the larvae, while the contents of ML and MLN were not significantly different between the capping and capped stage. Whereas in drone larvae, the contents of the four pheromone components were higher overall and increased with aging, and the content at capped stage was significantly higher than that at prior to be capped and capping. RNA-seq results showed that there were 4 299 and 3 926 differential expressed genes among the larvae groups of three stages of workers and drones, respectively. In addition, 152 and 130 KEGG pathways were obtained from the KEGG annotation analysis of the differential expressed genes, respectively. Furthermore, the possible de novo biosynthetic pathways were proposed for MP, MO, ML and MLN from acetyl-CoA, regulating under 11 related candidate genes, and these biosynthesis pathways were found to be similar to those of Apis mellifera. 【Conclusion】The release contents of MP, MO, ML and MLN were increased during the critical stage of capping in worker and drone larvae of A. cernana, which further verified that these four pheromones were related to capping behavior of honeybees, and it was speculated that they were possibly de novo biosynthesized from acetyl-CoA under the control of related genes. A. cernana larvae and A. mellifera larvae may use the same biosynthesis pathway for pheromone biosynthesis.
