1 Efficacy & safety of potential biological control agent of the New Zealand Mud Snail Ryan Hechinger co Pis: Tom Dudley, Armand Kuris, Kevin Lafferty University of California Santa Barbara
2 Classical Biocontrol of NZMS? Using exotic, natural enemy to regulate exotic pest National Management Plan describes possible use trematode parasite, Microphallus livelyi ( mili ) well-known from NZ (classic host-psite evolution Lively, Dybdahl, Jokela, etc.) 1st step: Assess Efficacy & Safety (what we re doing) Likely to work? Regulate host in NZ? Project for North America? Infective to North American NZMS? Non-target effects? Infect non-target snails? host specificity in NZ? North American snails? (lab) Pathogenic to birds?
3 The trematode, Microphallus trophic transmission eggs clonal growth, castration extreme specialists photos swiped from >100 cysts
4 Efficacy & Safety Likely to work (efficacy)? Regulate host in NZ? Project to North America? Infective to North American NZMS? Non-target effects (safety)? Infect non-target snails? in NZ? North American snails? (lab) Pathogenic to birds?
5 Efficacy-New Zealand One month 71 sites (64 with NZMS) 56 NIWA stream sites (long-term data) campervan (bed room, kitchen, lab), >6,000 km dissected ~100 snails/site 7,165 snails dissected wide environmental range
6 Trematode parasites Efficacy-New Zealand 383/7183 (5.3%) infected, collected EtOH (All) >12 infected? i species 0 in NA NZMS low compared to lakes Count of infected? 400 Microphallus most common trem1 xgrand x1 telo? telo steg? steg ren1 mipo? mipo mili m2trans m1noeyes im coit? f2lngstm f1shrtstm coit 0 Total
7 Impacts on NZMS? probability castrated w/ snail size fecundity w/ snail size lines: diff sites Snail length (mm) Snail length (mm) estimate reduction of pop repro output up to >70% aver ~6% Will this steady state abund? models generate mechanistic models for snail density determine what conditions conducive to high infection probabilities
8 Efficacy & Safety Likely to work (efficacy)? Regulate host in NZ? Project for North America? Infective to North American NZMS? Non-target effects (safety)? Infect non-target snails? in NZ? North American snails? (lab) Pathogenic to birds? Successfully been cycling through NA NZMS. Just now doing a 3 rd & 2 nd generation.
9 Efficacy & Safety Likely to work (efficacy)? Regulate host in NZ? Predict for North America Infective to North American NZMS? Non-target effects (safety)? Infect non-target snails? in NZ? North American snails? (lab) Pathogenic to birds? How specific is the parasite in native range? Completely, but no syntopic hydrobiids Not observed in non-target exotics Physa, Lymnaea (Kopp & Jokela 07)
10 Efficacy & Safety Likely to work (efficacy)? Regulate host in NZ? Predict for North America Infective to North American NZMS? Non-target effects (safety)? Infect non-target snails? in NZ? North American snails? (lab) Pathogenic to birds? SE Australia NZMS invasive since 1800s Microphallus reported (Schreiber 98 Fromme & Dybdahl 06) Native hydrobiids (related to NZMS)
11 Is Microphallus in the Australian natives? Is it wiping them out? ~1 month: 56 sites 37 sites snails dissected 14 with NZMS
12 Efficacy-Australia 2,590 snails dissected NZMS 77 / 913 (8%) infected 3 trem spp, mostly mili Australian natives (~7 spp) 20 trem spp, inc mili-like molecular work collected EtOH (All) Count of snail id Aust Fluv Hydr Post Pota (blank) snail genus collected EtOH (All) snail genera trem1 (blank) xip1 tric1 telo? steg? omosd not1 mini mili mili like mili mic5 mic4 mic3 mic2 mic1 mic mcsp1 inf hemi1 f1 long coit2 coit? c1 no tail bat Is NZ mili in Aust snails? Or, Aust mili in NZ snails? Or both? But, natives are widespread Count of snail id Aust Hydr Post Pota snail genus trem1 xip1 tric1 telo? steg? omosd not1 mini mili mili like mili mic5 mic4 mic3 mic2 mic1 mic mcsp1 inf hemi1 f1 long coit2 coit? c1 no tail bat
13 Efficacy & Safety Likely to work (efficacy)? Regulate host in NZ? Infective to North American NZMS? Non-target effects (safety)? Infect non-target snails? in NZ? North American snails? (lab) Pathogenic to birds? Host range testing: (force them into natives) Problem getting natives Six species so far Pyrgolopsis stearnsiana Pyrgolopsis clathrata Pyrgolopsis micrococcus Tryonia imitator Physa acuta Helisoma ammon or occidentale
14 Efficacy & Safety Likely to work (efficacy)? Regulate host in NZ? Infective to North American NZMS? Non-target effects (safety)? Infect non-target snails? in NZ? North American snails? (lab) Pathogenic to birds?
15 Safety-ducklings what birds? use most sensitive individuals: young, rapidly growing, calorie-restricted infect with 1000s worms weight (g) duck day p = % less growth Doing more ducks if no effects more testing if effects, more realistic experiments
16 Work in progress Soon: Analysis of parasite impact on NZMS in native range Sharing of trematodes with Australian relatives Host-range testing (NEED NA SNAILS PLEASE!) Impacts on ducks?
