    Scale insects have evolved extreme sexual dimorphism, as demonstrated by juvenile-like (or neotenic) females and winged males. This study aimed to elucidate the mechanism of sexual determination/differentiation in scale insects, as well as hormonal regulation of sexual dimorphic metamorphosis. We revealed that an adult specifier E93 is expressed exclusively in male metamorphosis, while female development proceeds with near absence of E93. Sequence analysis of the 5’ regulatory region of E93 identified the presence of Kruppel homolog 1 binding site as well as doublesex binding site. These results indicated a crosstalk between hormonal cascade and sexual determination/differentiation cascade.

    農業害虫として知られるカイガラムシは、雄は翅を持つ成虫へと変態する一方、雌は翅のない成虫へと幼形成熟を遂げる。研究代表者はこれまで、「内分泌カスケード」と「性決定・性分化カスケード」のシグナル伝達経路の解明に取り組み、性特異的形質の発現において両カスケード間にクロストークの存在することを見出した。本研究では、カイガラムシの性特異的形質の発現において「内分泌カスケード」と「性決定・性分化カスケード」の間に存在するクロストークの全容解明を目的とすると共に、こうしたカイガラムシ特有のカスケードを阻害・撹乱することによって致死効果をもたらすような、画期的な新規害虫防除剤の開発を目指す。
    カイガラムシは発育において顕著な性的二型を示す。本研究課題では、カイガラムシの性特異的形質の発現において「内分泌カスケード」と「性決定・性分化カスケード」の間に存在するクロストークの全容解明を目的とする。さらに、こうしたカイガラムシに特有のカスケードを阻害・撹乱することによって致死効果をもたらすような、画期的な新規害虫防除剤の開発を目指す。
    今までに我々は、他種昆虫で成虫形態形成に関わることが知られる転写因子E93が、カイガラムシにおいてはオス特異的に発現することを見出した。2019年度はミカンコナカイガラムシを対象として、E93の転写調節機構の解明を進めた。主要な研究成果は以下の通りである。
    【幼若ホルモン (JH) による転写因子E93の転写調節機構解明】約6.2 kbのE93プロモーター領域を含むレポーターベクターを作成し、JHの初期応答遺伝子であるKr-h1タンパク質発現ベクターと組み合わせてレポーターアッセイを実施した。段階的な削り込みにより、Kr-h1の結合する領域を約160 bpにまで絞り込んだ。
    【性決定因子Doublesex (Dsx) によるE93およびjhamtの発現制御機構解明】約6.2 kbのE93プロモーター領域に対して性決定因子Dsxのタンパク質発現ベクターを組み合わせてレポーターアッセイを実施したが、顕著なレポーター活性は見られなかった。JH生合成酵素の1つをコードするjhamtのプロモーター領域(約5.3 kb)についても、Dsxタンパク質発現ベクターを共存させたレポーターアッセイを実施したが、やはりレポーター活性は見られなかった。よって、今回検証したE93およびjhamtはDsxによって転写が制御されるターゲット遺伝子であると証明することはできなかった。
    2019年度の研究は、当初の計画と比較するとやや遅れていると判断している。その根拠および具体的な状況は以下の通りである。
    当初の計画では、2019年度にカイガラムシのゲノム解析を実施する予定であった。ゲノム解析のためのサンプル準備を進めていたが、専門家からの指摘によりサンプル準備方法を見直し、できるだけ遺伝的に均一な個体群を一から準備することとした。しかし2019年秋頃、累代飼育している個体群がなかなか増えず、ゲノム解析の実施時期に遅延が生じた。このため、ゲノム解析の実施を翌年度に延期することとした。
    このように、当初の計画の一つであったゲノム解析において遅れが生じているものの、他の項目(転写因子E93の発現制御機構解明)については順調に進んでいることから、全体としては「やや遅れている」と判断した。
    これまでの研究成果および進捗状況を踏まえ、次年度は以下のような推進方策を考えている。
    【フジコナカイガラムシのゲノム配列の解読】次世代シーケンサーを用いて、フジコナカイガラムシのゲノム配列解読を実施する。得られた配列データは、転写調節機構解明の各実験で用いる。
    【カイガラムシの培養細胞系の樹立】フジコナカイガラムシ組織から培養細胞系の樹立を試みる。樹立できれば、転写調節機構解明の各実験で用いる。
    【Dsxの下流ターゲットの網羅的探索】ChIP-seqにより、Dsxタンパク質が結合する可能性のあるゲノム領域を網羅的に同定する。
    【薬剤投与により内分泌カスケードを撹乱した場合の影響調査】我々はこれまでに、JH様活性を持つ薬剤(以下、JHミミックと省略)をメスに局所投与すると、明確な致死効果や外部形態異常は見られないものの、産卵数が減少するという予備的結果を得ている。そこでJHミミックを局所投与した場合の、性決定・性分化カスケード因子の遺伝子発現への影響、卵巣の発達状態、産卵数、およびふ化率について調査する。

    昆虫のビテロジェニン(Vg)は卵黄タンパク質前駆体であり、脂肪体で合成され、翻訳後修飾を受けた後に卵巣へ取り込まれる。幅広い昆虫種でVgは雌特異的な卵黄タンパク質前駆体として機能すると予想されてきたが、最近セジロウンカにおいて、ウイルスの伝播や植物の免疫応答抑制にも関わることが報告された。本研究ではカイガラムシにおいて、Vgタンパク質の翻訳後修飾、体内での局在、および植物の免疫応答への影響を調査し、Vgタンパク質の機能解明を目指す。
