    Abstract BACKGROUND: Drosophila suzukii became one of the most dangerous pests in fruit crops and vineyards in Europe since 2009. Lacking knowledge of the overwintering biology under European environmental conditions makes an environmentally friendly control of this invasive pest difficult. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate its hibernation capability under the climatic conditions of South Tyrol, Italy. METHODS: Monitoring flight activity by baited traps revealed an overwintering location in the Adige valley. We determined the reproductive status of females trapped weekly at “Schlossleiten” from August 2012 until September 2013 by dissecting their abdomens. For further potential correlation between overwintering locations, reproductive status, and climatic conditions were assessed. RESULTS: The microclimatic conditions of single locations affected overwintering success and suggest the aggregation of adults in most favourable hibernation sites where a high proportion of females is able to survive. However, in spring some of the females showed degenerated reproductive organs. Dissection of abdomens evinced a reproductive diapause, which appears to be affected by winter climatic conditions, the nutritional status, and food availability. CONCLUSIONS: D. suzukii is able to overwinter in the South Tyrolean area. Control and management of the potential hibernation sites may delay the population dynamics in the following season.

    Abstract Seroprevalence rates for immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies to Tahyna virus (TAHV) and Inkoo virus (INKV) were determined in sera of 1630 blood donors from North, East, and South Tyrol by immunofluorescence assays (IFAs) and confirmatory serum neutralization tests (SNTs). Ten sera (0.6%) reacted positive by TAHV IFA, five of which (0.3%) were confirmed by SNT. Eleven sera (0.7%) reacted positive in the INKV IFA; only one thereof (0.06%) was verified by subsequent SNT. To identify the source of infections, mosquitoes were trapped at 18 sampling sites in the study area, resulting in the collection of 2571 adult mosquitoes: 1254 individuals of the genus Aedes (48.8% of total) including A. albopictus, 640 Culex (24.9%), 303 Coquillettidia (11.8%), 252 Ochlerotatus (9.8%), 49 Anopheles (1.9%), and 73 mosquitoes of the genus Culiseta (2.8%). The mosquitoes were pooled according to species, trapping site, and time, and were tested by RT-PCR for the presence of California serogroup orthobunyavirus nucleic acids. PCR amplification products were obtained in five of 195 pools (2.6%), and all were identified as TAHVs by subsequent sequencing. This represents the first evidence of TAHV circulation and human exposure in the Tyrols and in the alpine region in general. Interestingly, all TAHV sequences were identified in Culex pipiens/torrentium mosquitoes. Whether other California serogroup orthobunyaviruses such as INKV are also circulating in this area is subject of further investigations on larger numbers of mosquitoes.

    Abstract Background: After malaria, babesiosis is the second most common transfusion-transmitted parasitic disease in the United States. In Europe, one reported transfusion case, concerning Babesia microti, occurred in Germany.
    Study design and methods: Due to the fact that Babesia spp. are present in Tyrolean ticks, the aim of this study is to assess the occurrence of immunoglobulin (Ig)G antibodies against the Babesia divergens complex, including B. divergens and Babesia venatorum (EU1), as well as B. microti by screening a representative collective of 988 blood donors from North and East Tyrol (Austria) with indirect immunofluorescence antibody test. Additionally, we investigated 206 local ixodid ticks for the presence of babesial DNA by polymerase chain reaction.
    Results: Seroprevalence data resulted in rates of 2.1% for IgG antibodies against the B. divergens complex and 0.6% against B. microti in Tyrolean blood donors. All sera could be confirmed by independent retesting. Our data indicate that cross-reactivity is high between B. divergens and B. venatorum and lower than 19.8% between B. divergens and B. microti.
    Conclusions: This study shows that Babesia spp. are present in the Tyrols, which blood donors come into serologic contact with, and that we have to consider how to sustain blood product safety concerning this new challenge. Additionally, it is the first description of B. venatorum in the Tyrols, found in one Ixodes ricinus at the Italian border.

    Abstract Since lime sulphur was accepted in the annex 2b of the European Regulation 2091/92, more and more fruit growers use it to control apple scab in organic orchards. Field trials were carried out at the Research Centre Laimburg to evaluate stop and curative treatments with the aim to reduce the number of treatments and improving their efficacy. In this diploma thesis microscopic observations were performed for a better understanding of the mode of action of lime sulphur on apple-scab. The results showed that lime sulphur can stop the scab infection until the formation of the appressorium. If the infection proceeds to the formation of the primary stroma, the efficacy of the treatments with lime sulphur was insufficient.

    Abstract In organic apple orcharding there is a continuous need for natural fungicides effective against Venturia inaequalis (Cooke) Winter, the causal agent of apple scab. In this study an in vitro assay is presented for determining the germination inhibitory potential of extracts and pure compounds. From a screening of plant extracts, the methanol extract of Morus root bark revealed distinct V. inaequalis inhibiting qualities, which were subjected to a bioguided fractionation. Among the isolated metabolites [moracins M (1), O/P (2), kuwanon L (3), and sanggenons D (4), B (5), G (6), O (7), E (8), and C (9)] all the Diels-Alder adducts (3-9) showed an antifungal activity with IC50 values between 10 and 123 microM. The in vitro activity of the most active fraction (A5, IC50 39.0 +/- 4.2 microg/mL) was evaluated in vivo, confirming a distinct antifungal activity against V. inaequalis for the tested natural material.
