AbstractWe investigated the influence of male flower production, floral synchrony and inter-tree distances on male reproductive success in a miniature seed orchard of Cryptomeria japonica. We used six microsatellite markers to determine the paternity of each seed. In the seed orchard, the average pollen contamination and clonal self-fertilization rates were 38.7% and 1.7%, respectively. The level of male reproductive success of constituent clones varied from 0.0 to 15.7%. Five clones showing the highest male reproductive success contributed ca. 30% of all analyzed seeds as a pollen donor after excluding contamination by external sources of pollen. The statistical analyses showed that male reproductive success was strongly influenced by male flower production of each clone and, possibly, by their distance to the mother trees. The linear regression which included male flower production and floral synchrony as independent variables, however, accounted for only 14.7% of variation of male reproductive success, suggesting that other factors such as pollen competition might also influence male reproductive success. Since we found no significant correlation between male reproductive and female reproductive successes, it may be better to equalize male and female reproductive successes independently

Heteroptera Pentatomidae

A bioclimatic model of the polyphagous predator, Podisus maculiventris (Say) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), was developed using CLIMEX software (Hearne Scientific Software, Melbourne, Australia). Calibration distribution was fitted using known distribution records for the United States and Canada, after which the model was used to generate a potential distribution map for the entire world. As expected, potential distribution maps agreed with known distribution records for North America. However, apparent mismatches were found for distributions in Europe, South America, midAfrica, and Southeast Asia. Using historical weather data, CLIMEX “growth indices” (measures of climate suitability for insect development) were compared against multiyear pheromone trap counts in the northern (Indiana) and southern (Florida) United States. Growth index curves did not appear to match pheromone trap data in either location when examined separately by year, location and insect sex. However, a weak relationship was found between trap counts and growth index when data were pooled across years, locations and sex.
