Abstract
The tobacco cutworm, Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is an economically important agricultural polyphagous pest worldwide. It has shown high resistance to several insecticides, including cypermethrin, a synthetic pyrethroid that is used in large-scale commercial agricultural applications. The present study investigated the development of selection-induced resistance to cypermethrin and associated fitness costs in S. litura. After continuous exposure to cypermethrin for consecutive fifteen generations, the cypermethrin-selected population (CYP-Sel) of S. litura developed a 21.2-fold resistance. The CYP-Sel strain had a relative fitness of 0.16 when treated with LC50, prolonged larval duration, and development time. Meanwhile, the strain also showed shorter adult duration, lower fecundity, and hatchability compared with the Unsel-Lab population. CYP-Sel population showed a significant disadvantage in intrinsic rate of natural increase (rm), net reproductive rate (Ro), and finite rate of increase (λ) when compared to the Unsel-Lab population. This knowledge could help to design resistance management strategies against this particular pest, along with potential management strategies to overcome the development of resistance.

Abstract
Spodoptera frugiperda is a significant global pest, and chlorantraniliprole (CAP) is extensively used in China for its control. Understanding CAP resistance in S. frugiperda is crucial for effective management of this pest. Field populations exhibited varying degrees of resistance to CAP (RR = 1.74-5.60-fold). After 10 generations of selection, the CAP-resistant strain developed over 10-fold resistance, with a realized heritability (h2) of 0.10. Genetic analysis reveals inheritance patterns as autosomal, incomplete recessive, and monofactorial. The CAP-resistant strain showed limited cross-resistance to lufenuron and tetrachlorantraniliprole, negative cross-resistance to spinetoram, and no observed cross-resistance to other insecticides. Biochemical analysis suggested that P450-mediated detoxification is the primary resistance mechanism, with 26 genes overexpressed in the CAP-resistant strain. Additionally, the knockdown of CYP4L13, CYP6B39, CYP6B40, and CYP4G74 significantly increased the sensitivity of the resistant larvae to CAP. These findings highlight the resistance risk of CAP in S. frugiperda and emphasize the crucial role of P450 enzymes in resistance.

Risk assessment, fitness cost, cross-resistance, and mechanism of tetraniliprole resistance in the rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis. INSECT SCIENCE 2024; 31:835-846. [PMID: 37846895 DOI: 10.1111/1744-7917.13282] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/15/2023] [Indexed: 10/18/2023]
Abstract
The rice stem borer (RSB), Chilo suppressalis, a notorious rice pest in China, has evolved a high resistance level to commonly used insecticides. Tetraniliprole, a new anthranilic diamide insecticide, effectively controls multiple pests, including RSB. However, the potential resistance risk of RSB to tetraniliprole is still unknown. In this study, the tetraniliprole-selection (Tet-R) strain was obtained through 10 continuous generations of selection with tetraniliprole 30% lethal concentration (LC30). The realized heritability (h2) of the Tet-R strain was 0.387, indicating that resistance of RSB to tetraniliprole developed rapidly under the continuous selection of tetraniliprole. The Tet-R strain had a high fitness cost (relative fitness = 0.53). We established the susceptibility baseline of RSB to tetraniliprole (lethal concentration at LC50 = 0.727 mg/L) and investigated the resistance level of 6 field populations to tetraniliprole. All tested strains that had resistance to chlorantraniliprole exhibited moderate- to high-level resistance to tetraniliprole (resistance ratio = 27.7-806.8). Detection of ryanodine receptor (RyR) mutations showed that the Y4667C, Y4667D, I4758M, and Y4891F mutations were present in tested RSB field populations. RyR mutations were responsible for the cross-resistance between tetraniliprole and chlorantraniliprole. Further, the clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR) / CRISPR-associated protein 9-mediated genome-modified flies were used to study the contribution of RyR mutations to tetraniliprole resistance. The order of contribution of a single RyR mutation to tetraniliprole resistance was Y4667D > G4915E > Y4667C ≈ I4758M > Y4891F. In addition, the I4758M and Y4667C double mutations conferred higher tetraniliprole resistance than single Y4667C mutations. These results can guide resistance management practices for diamides in RSB and other arthropods.

PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE 2024; 80:1361-1366. [PMID: 37915306 DOI: 10.1002/ps.7866] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The house fly (Musca domestica L.) is a synanthropic fly species commonly associated with confined animal facilities. House fly control relies heavily on insecticide use. Neonicotinoids are currently the most widely used class of insecticide and have been formulated into granular fly baits since 2002. Physiological resistance to imidacloprid in house flies has been observed to be unstable and decline over time without continual selection pressure, indicating that resistance has a fitness cost to individuals in the absence of exposure to insecticides. The stability of behavioral resistance to imidacloprid in the house fly has not been evaluated. In the current study, we assess the stability of physiological and behavioral resistance in house flies to imidacloprid over time. RESULTS Physiological susceptibility to imidacloprid varied significantly among three house fly strains examined, with WT-15 exhibiting the greatest susceptibility to imidacloprid with an LC50 and LC95 of 109.29 (95.96-124.49) μg g-1 and 1486.95 (1097.15-2015.23) μg g-1 , respectively. No significant differences in survival were observed across 30 generations of a house fly strain (BRS-1) previously selected for behavioral resistance to imidacloprid with percentage survival ranging from 93.20% at F0 in 2020 to 96.20% survival at F30 in 2022. CONCLUSION These results have significant implications for the management of house flies exhibiting behavioral resistance in field settings. It appears that standard resistance management tactics deployed to reduce the prevalence of physiological resistance, such as rotating or temporarily discontinuing the use of specific insecticides, may not lead to reduced behavioral resistance to imidacloprid. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
Stability and delivery are major challenges associated with exogenous double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) application into plants. We report the encapsulation and delivery of dsRNA in cationic poly-aspartic acid-derived polymer (CPP6) into plant cells. CPP6 stabilizes the dsRNAs during long exposure at varied temperatures and pH, and protects against RNase A degradation. CPP6 helps dsRNA uptake through roots or foliar spray and facilitates systemic movement to induce endogenous gene silencing. The fluorescence of Arabidopsis GFP-overexpressing transgenic plants was significantly reduced after infiltration with gfp-dsRNA-CPP6 by silencing of the transgene compared to plants treated only with gfp-dsRNA. The plant endogenous genes flowering locus T (FT) and phytochrome interacting factor 4 (PIF4) were downregulated by a foliar spray of ft-dsRNA-CPP6 and pif4-dsRNA-CPP6 in Arabidopsis, with delayed flowering and enhanced biomass. The rice PDS gene targeted by pds-dsRNA-CPP6 through root uptake was effectively silenced and plants showed a dwarf and albino phenotype. The NaCl-induced OsbZIP23 was targeted through root uptake of bzip23-dsRNA-CPP6 and showed reduced transcripts and seedling growth compared to treatment with naked dsRNA. The negative regulators of plant defence SDIR1 and SWEET14 were targeted through foliar spray to provide durable resistance against bacterial leaf blight disease caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). Overall, the study demonstrates that transient silencing of plant endogenous genes using polymer-encapsulated dsRNA provides prolonged and durable resistance against Xoo, which could be a promising tool for crop protection and for sustaining productivity.

Abstract
Alpha-cypermethrin interacts with the sodium channel and causes nerve blockage in insects. It is used to manage Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus) (Diptera: Culicidae), a primary vector of dengue worldwide. It not only affects both target and non-target organisms, but overuse of this insecticide increases the chances of resistance development in insect pests. In this study, resistance development, biological parameters, and stability of alpha-cypermethrin resistance were studied in a laboratory-selected strain of Ae. aegypti. The alpha-cypermethrin selected strain (Alpha Sel) developed an 11.86-fold resistance level after 12 rounds of alpha-cypermethrin selection compared to the unselected strain (Unsel). In biological parameters, Alpha Sel and Cross1 (Unsel ♂ and Alpha Sel♀) had shorter larval durations compared to Unsel and Cross2 (Unsel ♀ and Alpha Sel ♂) populations. The pupal duration of Alpha Sel and both crosses was shorter than that in the Unsel strain. The relative fitness of Alpha Sel, Cross1, and Cross2 was significantly less than that of the Unsel strain. These results indicate that alpha-cypermethrin resistance comes with fitness costs. Moreover, the frequency of alpha-cypermethrin resistance decreased when the Alpha Sel population was reared without further selection pressure for four generations. So, resistance was unstable and reversed when insecticide pressure ceased. We concluded that the judicious and rotational use of different insecticides with different modes of action and the adoption of other IPM-recommended practices would suppress resistance development for more extended periods in Ae. aegypti.

Abstract
The chemical application is considered one of the most crucial methods for controlling insect pests, especially in intensive farming practices. Owing to the chemical application, insect pests are exposed to toxic chemical insecticides along with other stress factors in the environment. Insects require energy and resources for survival and adaptation to cope with these conditions. Also, insects use behavioral, physiological, and genetic mechanisms to combat stressors, like new environments, which may include chemicals insecticides. Sometimes, the continuous selection pressure of insecticides is metabolically costly, which leads to resistance development through constitutive upregulation of detoxification genes and/or target-site mutations. These actions are costly and can potentially affect the biological traits, including development and reproduction parameters and other key variables that ultimately affect the overall fitness of insects. This review synthesizes published in-depth information on fitness costs induced by insecticide resistance in insect pests in the past decade. It thereby highlights the insecticides resistant to insect populations that might help design integrated pest management (IPM) programs for controlling the spread of resistant populations.

Abstract
Two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae), is a phytophagous haplodiploid mite and its control is largely based on the use of pesticides. But, the short life cycle and high reproductive rate allow them to develop resistance to many pesticides. To design a strategy for resistance management, a fitness cost study was conducted on different populations of T. urticae, i.e., spiromesifen selected (SPIRO-SEL), unselected (Unsel), and reciprocal crosses. After twelve rounds of selections, T. urticae developed high spiromesifen resistance (71.7-fold) compared to the Unsel strain. Results showed a fitness cost for SPIRO-SEL, Cross1 (Unsel ♀ × SPIRO-SEL ♂), and Cross2 (SPIRO-SEL ♀ × Unsel ♂) with a relative fitness values of 0.63, 0.86, and 0.70, respectively. There was a significant increase in the incubation period, quiescent larvae, and egg to adult male and female developmental period of the SPIRO-SEL compared with Unsel strain. Moreover, resistance to spiromesifen was unstable with a decline in resistance value of - 0.05. The presence of unstable spiromesifen resistance associated with fitness costs suggests that intermittent withdrawal of its usage could potentially preserve its effectiveness for management of T. urticae.

Abstract
The Colorado potato beetle (CPB) is the most economically important pest of Canadian potato, and if left uncontrolled, it can completely consume the crop. In the past decade, the control of CPB has relied heavily on systemic insecticides, principally the neonicotinoids thiamethoxam and clothianidin. Resistance to neonicotinoids in CPB has been well documented in the past 2 decades and mechanisms underlying the resistance better understood. In contrast, resistance to other insecticide classes, including spinosyns (spinosad and spinetoram) and anthranillic diamides (chlorantraniliprole and cyantraniliprole), have not been studied to the same degree in CPB. Spinosyns are the only insecticide certified for organic potato growers in Canada and are frequently applied as a mid-season foliar spray by conventional growers when seed treatments with neoniconitoid or diamide experience control breaks. Improved knowledge on resistance to spinosyns in CPB would allow for the development of regional management strategies. A survey of insecticide susceptibility in CPB populations from 6 potato growing regions between 2018 and 2022 observed: 1) spatial and temporal resistance trends; 2) cross-resistance; and 3) evidence of regional differences in susceptibility to spinosyns. The proportion of populations within each province considered resistant to spinosyns was, in descending order: Québec (16%) > Ontario (14%) > Manitoba (13%) > New Brunswick (9%) > Prince Edward Island (2%) > Alberta (0%). There was a significant change in CPB mortality at the diagnostic concentration (DC = LC90) for spinosad and spinetoram in the 6 provinces but only for year 5 relative to the previous 4 years. Moderate cross-resistance was determined between spinosad and spinetoram with the DC mortality for all populations based on a positive and significant correlation (adjusted R2 = 0.3758; P = 1.263e-13). There was also a positive relationship observed between the number of spinosyn applications (years applied at the sampling location) and declining susceptibility to spinosad (R2 = 0.0927; P < 0.002). Cross-resistance was observed between spinosyns and insecticides in the other two classes, the more significant correlation was between spinosad and tetraniliprole (R2 = 0.3025; P < 0.0002). In Québec, the greater spinosad use in organic potato farms led to resistance in those CPB populations, but spinosyn resistance at conventional farms was not related to greater application of neonicotinoids and diamides. Spinosyns remain relatively effective, nevertheless growers should be concerned over the increasing cases of reduced susceptibility in conventional potato farms and resistance where organic production occurs. Resistance management should continue to encourage rotation with products from the other classes in season and between years in order to extend spinosyn use for CPB control.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Panonychus citri is a major citrus pest worldwide. The short life cycle and high reproductive potential of P. citri, combined with heavy acaricide use, have led to high levels of resistance to acaricides, posing a threat to global resistance management programs. Here, resistance monitoring was established to determine the pyridaben resistance status of ten P. citri populations in China from 2014 to 2021 using a leaf-dipping assay. Four characterized strains-the susceptible strain (Lab_S), the resistant strain (Pyr_R), as well as the segregated resistant strain (Pyr_Rs) and the segregated susceptible strain (Pyr_Control) derived from the crossing of the Lab_S and Pyr_R strains, were used to evaluate the life-history characteristics using age-stage, two-sex life tables. RESULTS Most P. citri populations developed high resistance to pyridaben. Resistance levels exceeded 1000-fold in Yuxi, Anyue, Nanning, and Ganzhou populations compared with the Lab_S strain. Compared with Pyr_Control, two key fitness cost criteria, developmental period and fecundity, showed significant differences in Pyr_Rs under consistent conditions. The intrinsic rate of increase, net reproductive rate and gross reproductive rate were lower in the resistant strain compared with the Pyr_Control strain. The Pyr_Rs strain had a lower relative fitness of 0.934 compared with the Pyr_Control. Moreover, the life-history traits and population parameters of the Pyr_R strain also showed significant differences compared with the Lab_S strain. CONCLUSION The resistance levels to pyridaben varied greatly among the different P. citri populations and showed regional differences. Substantial fitness costs are associated with pyridaben resistance. This study provides potential implications for developing strategies for resistance management in P. citri. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The Musca domestica L. is a well-known vector for a number of livestock and human diseases. One major challenge for maintaining effective control of this pest is its propensity to develop resistance to insecticides. This study utilized laboratory selection and realized heritability methods to examine the risk of resistance development to diflubenzuron in Musca domestica L. Cross-resistance (CR) to fourteen other insecticides was measured in diflubenzuron-selected (Diflu-SEL) strain which was selected for 20 generations. The resistance ratio (RR) of Diflu-SEL larvae to diflubenzuron increased from 30.33 in generation five (G5) to 182.33 in G24 compared with the susceptible strain, while realized heritability (h2) was 0.08. The number of needed generations (G) for a tenfold increase in the median lethal concentration (LC50) for diflubenzuron ranged from 4 to 45 at h2 values of 0.08, 0.18, and 0.28, at a slope of 1.51. At h2 = 0.08 and slopes of 1.51, 2.51, and 3.51, the number of needed G for a tenfold increase in the LC50 ranged from 9 to 104. The level of CR shown by the Diflu-SEL strain to all other fourteen tested insecticides (insect growth regulators, organophosphates, and pyrethroids) was either absent or very low compared to the field population. The value of h2 and the absent or low CR indicate potential successful management of resistance to diflubenzuron and recommend the use of the tested insecticides in rotation with diflubenzuron to control M. domestica.

Fitness costs associated with chlorantraniliprole resistance in Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) strains with different genetic backgrounds. PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE 2022; 78:1279-1286. [PMID: 34854222 DOI: 10.1002/ps.6746] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2021] [Revised: 10/25/2021] [Accepted: 12/02/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) is a difficult pest to manage mainly because of its resistance to insecticides and Bt proteins. We evaluated fitness costs of S. frugiperda resistant strains to diamide insecticides with different genetic backgrounds aiming to highlight the importance of using isogenic strains. We established a near-isogenic strain of S. frugiperda resistant to diamides (Iso-RR), using a chlorantraniliprole resistant strain (RR) selected from a field-collected population and a susceptible reference strain (SS). Fitness costs were assayed using strains with close-related genetic backgrounds (Iso-RR and SS) and strains with distant-related genetic backgrounds (RR and SS). RESULTS No fitness cost associated with chlorantraniliprole resistance in S. frugiperda was observed using the Iso-RR strain, based on life history traits. The only parameter that differs between Iso-RR and SS strains was the mean length of a generation (T), whereas the Iso-RR strain presented T = 35.8 and SS strain showed T = 34.6. On the other hand, a significant fitness cost was detected using the RR strain. All population growth parameters differ between RR and SS strains. Based on the intrinsic rate of population increase (rm ) parameter, the relative fitness estimated was 1.02 for the Iso-RR strain and 0.64 for the RR strain. CONCLUSION The genetic background of the resistant strains alters fitness cost outcomes. The RR strain showed fitness costs associated with resistance, but the Iso-RR did not. Our work supports the decision-making process of resistance management programs and adds to the growing body of research that enlightens the importance of strain genetics in fitness cost experiments.

Abstract
Flubendiamide (FBD) is the first commercially available phthalic acid diamide that targets ryanodine receptors (RyRs) in insects, which play a major role in lepidoptera control. However, excessive use of FBD can influence the quality of treated products leading to toxic effects on human health. The availability of rapid and convenient methods for evaluating FBD amount in the environment is necessary. Therefore, analytical methods were developed for the determination of residues of FBD and its metabolite desiodo in different food matrices like tomato, cabbage, pigeon pea, apple, chilli and rice. The current review carries forward methods for FBD residues analysis in foods by using several chromatographic techniques including sample preparation steps. The comparison between the different methods employed for quantitative and qualitative analysis of food quality and safety is also discussed. Liquid chromatography (LC) is the predominant analytical method for assessing the quality of foods treated with FBD. Studies related to LC coupled multichannel detector (Ultraviolet (UV), Mass spectrometry (MS)) are also applied to detect pesticide residues. Extraction and clean up steps are essential to obtain reliable results. Moreover, this review reports the allowed limits of residues for the safety of consuming products treated with FBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Triflumezopyrim, a novel commercialized mesoionic chemical insecticide, has been confirmed as a promising insecticide for efficiently controlling the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål). Here, a laboratory triflumezopyrim-resistant (TR) strain and an isogenic susceptible (TS) strain were established to characterize the inheritance and fitness costs of triflumezopyrim resistance in N. lugens. RESULTS After 29 generations of successive selection with triflumezopyrim, the TR strain developed a 155.23-fold higher resistance level than the TS strain. The median lethal concentration (LC50 ) values from progenies (F1 RS and F1 SR) of reciprocal crosses between TR and TS strains suggested that triflumezopyrim resistance in N. lugens was autosomal and codominant. Chi-square analyses of self-bred and backcrossed progenies suggested that the resistance results from a polygenic effect. Compared to the TS strain, the TR strain showed a lower relative fitness (0.62) with a significantly decreased female adult period, longevity, total fecundity, egg hatchability, intrinsic rate of increase (r), finite rate of increase (λ), net reproductive rate (R0 ), and prolonged pre-adult period and total preoviposition period (TPOP). CONCLUSION The inheritance mode of triflumezopyrim resistance in N. lugens was characterized as autosomal, codominant and polygenic. The resistance had a fitness cost, which may be an important factor limiting the evolution of resistance. These findings provide valuable information for optimizing resistance management strategies to delay triflumezopyrim resistance development and maintain sustainable control of N. lugens. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Culex quinquefasciatus is not only a biting nuisance but also an important vector of fatal diseases. In Saudi Arabia, management measures to control this mosquito and thereby prevent associated disease transmission have focused on insecticides. Nevertheless, information on the resistance status of C. quinquefasciatus is insufficient, especially concerning insecticides containing novel classes of insecticides. METHODS We evaluated six insecticides belonging to four classes of insecticides (insect growth regulators [3], avermectins [1], diamides [1] and spinosyns [1]) for toxicity and resistance in eight C. quinquefasciatus populations (from Ishbiliya, Al-Masfa, Al-Masanie, Al-Washlah, Al-Nakhil, Irqah, Al-Suwaidi and Al-Ghanemiya) following World Health Organisation protocols. RESULTS Resistance status ranging from susceptibility/low resistance to high resistance, in comparison with the susceptible strain, was detected for cyromazine in the eight C. quinquefasciatus populations: Ishbiliya (resistance ratio [RR] = 3.33), Al-Masfa (RR = 4.33), Al-Masanie (RR = 3.67), Al-Washlah (RR = 2.33), Al-Nakhil (RR = 5.33), Irqah (RR = 7.00), Al-Suwaidi (RR = 21.33) and Al-Ghanemiya (RR = 16.00). All C. quinquefasciatus populations exhibited a high level of resistance to diflubenzuron (RR = 13.33-43.33), with the exception of Al-Nakhil which exhibited moderate resistance (RR = 10.00). Susceptibility/low resistance to high resistance was observed for triflumuron in the eight C. quinquefasciatus populations: Ishbiliya (RR = 0.50), Al-Ghanemiya (RR = 3.00), Al-Suwaidi (RR = 10.00), Al-Masfa (RR = 5.00), Al-Masanie (RR = 10.00), Al-Nakhil (RR = 5.00), Irqah (RR = 5.00) and Al-Washlah (RR = 15.00). Susceptibility/low resistance was assessed for abamectin, chlorantraniliprole and spinosad in all C. quinquefasciatus populations, with RR ranges of 0.25-3.50, 0.17-2.19, and 0.02-0.50, respectively. However, the population collected from Irqah showed high resistance to chlorantraniliprole (RR = 11.93). CONCLUSIONS The detection of widespread resistance to insect growth regulators in C. quinquefasciatus highlights an urgent need to establish integrated vector management strategies. Our results may facilitate the selection of potent insecticides for integrated vector management programmes for C. quinquefasciatus.

Abstract
Flonicamid is a chordotonal modulator and novel systemic insecticide that has been used frequently for controlling a broad range of insect pests. The risk of flonicamid resistance was assessed through laboratory selection and determining inheritance pattern and cross-resistance potential to five insecticides in house fly, Musca domestica L. Very low to high flonicamid resistance in M. domestica populations was found compared with the susceptible strain (SS). A flonicamid-selected (Flonica-RS) M. domestica strain developed 57.73-fold resistance to flonicamid screened for 20 generations compared with the SS. Overlapping 95% fiducial limits of LC50 of the F1 and F1ǂ, and dominance values (0.87 for F1 and 0.92 for F1ǂ) revealed an autosomal and incomplete dominant flonicamid resistance. The monogenic model of resistance inheritance suggested a polygenic flonicamid resistance. The Flonica-RS strain displayed negative cross-resistance between flonicamid and sulfoxaflor (0.10-fold) or clothianidin (0.50-fold), and very low cross-resistance between flonicamid and flubendiamide (4.71-fold), spinetoram (4.68-fold), or thiamethoxam (2.02-fold) in comparison with the field population. The estimated realized heritability (h2) value of flonicamid resistance was 0.02. With selection mortality 40-90%, the generations required for a 10-fold increase in LC50 of flonicamid were 94-258 at h2 (0.02) and slope (3.29). Flonicamid resistance was inherited as autosomal, incomplete dominant, and polygenic in the Flonica-RS. Negative or very low cross-resistance between flonicamid and sulfoxaflor, clothianidin, flubendiamide, spinetoram, and thiamethoxam means that these insecticides can be used as alternatives for controlling M. domestica. These data can be useful in devising the management for M. domestica.

Abstract
The house fly, Musca domestica L. is an important mechanical vector of different pathogens of medical and veterinary importance. It is an organism well-known for its ability to develop insecticide resistance. In the current study, we investigated the genetic basis and mechanism of chlorantraniliprole resistance in a field strain of house fly by selecting it artificially in the laboratory with a commercial formulation of chlorantraniliprole (CTPR-SEL). After seven generations of consecutive selection with chlorantraniliprole, CTPR-SEL strain developed a 644-fold resistance compared with the Susceptible strain and a 3-fold resistance compared with the field strain. Reciprocal crossing between the CTPR-SEL and Susceptible homozygous strains revealed an autosomal and incomplete dominant mode of resistance to chlorantraniliprole. A direct test using a monogenic inheritance model based on chi-square analysis revealed that the resistance was governed by more than one gene. Bioassays with synergists indicated that esterases might be involved in the resistance of house fly to chlorantraniliprole. These findings may be helpful to the development of an improved strategy for chlorantraniliprole resistance management in house fly.

Abstract
Among the vectorial insect pests, the domestic house fly (Musca domestica L., Diptera: Muscidae) is a ubiquitous livestock pest with the ability to develop resistance and adapt to diverse climates. Successful management of the house fly in various locations requires information about its resistance development and life table features. The status of insect growth regulators resistance and life table features on the basis of age, stage, and two sexes of the house fly from five different geographical locations of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: Dirab, Al-Masanie, Al-Washlah, Al-Uraija and Al-Muzahmiya were therefore investigated. The range of resistance levels were 3.77-8.03-fold for methoxyfenozide, 5.50-29.75 for pyriproxyfen, 0.59-2.91-fold for cyromazine, 9.33-28.67-fold for diflubenzuron, and 1.63-8.25-fold for triflumuron in five populations of house fly compared with the susceptible strain. Analysis of life history parameters-such as survival rate, larval duration, pupal duration, pre-female duration, pre-male duration, adult and total pre-oviposition periods, longevity of male, oviposition period, female ratio, and fecundity female-1-revealed significant variations among the field populations. Additionally, demographic features-including the generation time, the finite and intrinsic rates of increase, doubling time, and net reproductive rate-varied significantly among the field populations. These results will be helpful in planning the management of the house fly in geographically isolated dairies in Saudi Arabia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The field population of Spodoptera exigua, an intermittently occurring polyphagous pest, has developed resistance to chlorantraniliprole, while whether or not such resistance carries fitness costs remains poorly understood. Here we selected six generations of the Leshan population (LS-P) by two-way selecting method, and obtained a highly resistant strain (CH-RE) and resistant degeneration strain (CH-SE) sharing a similar genetic background. After that fitness costs were evaluated by comparing the life history characteristics of CH-RE, CH-SE and the laboratory susceptible strain (SE-Lab) via the age-stage two-sex life table method. RESULTS The resistance ratio of CH-RE and CH-SE were 226.69-fold and 3.72-fold, respectively, and the estimated realized heritability (h2 ) of CH-RE was 0.058. Compared with CH-SE, the duration of pre-adult, the longevity of adult, adult preoviposition period (APOP) and average generation time (T) of CH-RE had significantly increased, but the oviposition days, average fecundity, intrinsic growth rate (r), weekly growth rate (λ) and reproductive rate (R0 ) decreased significantly. Moreover, the relative fitness of CH-RE was 0.25, and showed fitness costs. Concurrently, the fecundity of CH-SE was slightly lower than SE-Lab, but there was no significant difference in r, λ and R0 , and the fitness (1) of CH-SE was similar to SE-Lab (1.02), which was no fitness cost. CONCLUSION These findings represent that chlorantraniliprole resistance in S. exigua has a fitness cost, and the fitness cost will disappear with the recovery of sensitivity when the insecticide is stopped for field populations, supporting that such resistance would be managed by switching off the selection pressure with rotation with alternate insecticides. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Dysdercus koenigii, a serious cotton-staining insect pest in many countries, has shown high resistance to imidacloprid, a systemic neonicotinoid insecticide used to control sap-sucking pests. With the aim of creating an effective management strategy, the biological traits of susceptible (SS) and imidacloprid-resistant (Imida-RS) D. koenigii, as well as their reciprocal crosses (CR1 and CR2), were investigated here using a life table established on age, stage, and two-sex patterns. Compared with SS D. koenigii, Imida-RS and CR1 strains had lower relative fitness (0.80 and 0.47, respectively) and fecundity (eggs per female); prolonged egg duration and a prolonged adult preoviposition period; shorter nymphal duration, male/female total longevity, and oviposition days, and a shorter total preoviposition period. However, there were no differences among strains in nymphal survival rates and female ratio. The CR2 D. koenigii had similar relative fitness value (1.09), suggested no fitness cost in most of the parameters. Demographic parameters, including net reproductive rate, were lower in the Imida-RS strain than in SS and CR2 D. koenigii. Similarly, the Imida-RS and CR1 strains had shorter generation time and doubling time, lower reproductive value and life expectancy relative to the SS and CR2 D. koenigii. In addition, age-specific fecundity was negatively affected in the CR1 strain compared with the other strains. These findings could help facilitate the development of rational D. koenigii control strategies.

PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 9:E1780. [PMID: 33339102 PMCID: PMC7765514 DOI: 10.3390/plants9121780] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2020] [Revised: 12/07/2020] [Accepted: 12/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Efforts to develop more environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional broad-spectrum pesticides in agriculture have recently turned to RNA interference (RNAi) technology. With the built-in, sequence-specific knockdown of gene targets following delivery of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), RNAi offers the promise of controlling pests and pathogens without adversely affecting non-target species. Significant advances in the efficacy of this technology have been observed in a wide range of species, including many insect pests and fungal pathogens. Two different dsRNA application methods are being developed. First, host induced gene silencing (HIGS) harnesses dsRNA production through the thoughtful and precise engineering of transgenic plants and second, spray induced gene silencing (SIGS) that uses surface applications of a topically applied dsRNA molecule. Regardless of the dsRNA delivery method, one aspect that is critical to the success of RNAi is the ability of the target organism to internalize the dsRNA and take advantage of the host RNAi cellular machinery. The efficiency of dsRNA uptake mechanisms varies across species, and in some uptake is negligible, rendering them effectively resistant to this new generation of control technologies. If RNAi-based methods of control are to be used widely, it is critically important to understand the mechanisms underpinning dsRNA uptake. Understanding dsRNA uptake mechanisms will also provide insight into the design and formulation of dsRNAs for improved delivery and provide clues into the development of potential host resistance to these technologies.

Discovery of a polysubstituted phenyl containing novel N-phenylpyrazole scaffold as potent ryanodine receptor activator. Bioorg Med Chem 2020; 28:115829. [PMID: 33191084 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmc.2020.115829] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2020] [Revised: 10/18/2020] [Accepted: 10/22/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
To develop the novel ryanodine receptors (RyRs) insecticides, encouraged by our previous research work, a series of novel N-phenylpyrazole derivatives containing a polysubstituted phenyl ring scaffold were designed and synthesized. The bioassays results indicated that some title compounds exhibited excellent insecticidal activity. For oriental armyworm (Mythimna separata), compounds 7f, 7g, 7i and 7o at 0.5 mg L-1 displayed 100% larvicidal activity, and even at 0.1 mg L-1, 7o was 30% larvicidal activity, comparable to chlorantraniliprole (30%) and better than cyantraniliprole (10%). Compounds 7f and 7o had the median lethal concentrations (LC50) of 8.83 × 10-2 and 7.12 × 10-2 mg L-1, respectively, close to chlorantraniliprole (6.79 × 10-2 mg L-1). Additionally, for diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella), the larvicidal activity of compounds 7f and 7i were 90% and 70% at 0.01 mg L-1, respectively, better than chlorantraniliprole (50%) and cyantraniliprole (40%). More impressively, the LC50 value of 7f was 4.2 × 10-3 mg L-1, slightly lower than that of chlorantraniliprole (5.0 × 10-3 mg L-1). The molecular docking between compound 7f and RyRs of diamondback moth validated our molecular designation. Furthermore, the calcium imaging experiment explored the influence of compound 7o on the calcium homeostasis in the central neurons of the third larvae of oriental armyworm. The results of this study indicated that 7o is a potent novel lead targeting at RyRs.

Alam M, Shah RM, Shad SA, Binyameen M. Fitness cost, realized heritability and stability of resistance to spiromesifen in house fly, Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae). PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2020; 168:104648. [PMID: 32711758 DOI: 10.1016/j.pestbp.2020.104648] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2019] [Revised: 06/25/2020] [Accepted: 06/27/2020] [Indexed: 05/06/2023]
Abstract
The house fly, Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae), is an insect pest of public health and veterinary importance. Spiromesifen is a new chemistry insecticide widely used for the management of sucking insect pests of vegetables and crops. In the present study, assessment of resistance risk and fitness costs associated with spiromesifen resistance in M. domestica was studied. Moreover, stability of resistance to spiromesifen and other tested insecticides (fipronil, spinosad, and bifenthrin) was evaluated in the spiromesifen-selected-strain (SPIRO-SEL-POP). After 7-generations of selection with spiromesifen, SPIRO-SEL-POP developed 108.76-fold resistance compared with the unselected strain (UNSEL-POP). The estimated value of realized heritability was 0.59 for spiromesifen resistance. Due to withdrawal of spiromesifen selection for five generations (F6-F10) on SPIRO-SEL-POP, a decline in LC50 values against spiromesifen, spinosad and bifenthrin was 0.16, 0.14 and 0.13-folds, respectively. In biological trait experiments, larval weight of Cross1 (SPIRO-SEL-POP♀ × UNSEL-POP♂) and SPIRO-SEL-POP was significantly lower than that of Cross2 (SPIRO-SEL-POP♂ × UNSEL-POP♀) and UNSEL-POP. Pupal weight of SPIRO-SEL-POP was higher when compared with Cross1 while it was similar to that of Cross2 and UNSEL-POP. Adult emergence rate of UNSEL-POP was higher than Cross1, but similar to the Cross2 and SPIRO-SEL-POP. The SPIRO-SEL-POP and Cross1 showed the lowest relative fitness when compared with USEL-POP and Cross2. Intrinsic rate of natural increase of SPIRO-SEL-POP was much lower than that of UNSEL-POP and Cross2 followed by Cross1. The SPIRO-SEL-POP exhibited lower biotic potential when compared with UNSEL-POP and Cross2 but similar to Cross1. Fecundity and hatching rates were lower in SPIRO-SEL-POP compared to UNSEL-POP. It could be concluded that spiromesifen resistance in M. domestica comes with a cost and is instable. Therefore, spiromesifen rotation with other insecticides and withdraw of its usage for some period could help to sustain its efficacy by delaying the development of resistance.

Toxicity of fluralaner, a companion animal insecticide, relative to industry-leading agricultural insecticides against resistant and susceptible strains of filth flies. Sci Rep 2020; 10:11166. [PMID: 32636470 PMCID: PMC7341816 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-68121-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2020] [Accepted: 06/10/2020] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Filth flies cause billions of dollars of losses annually to the animal production industry. Fluralaner is a relatively new pesticide currently sold for control of fleas, ticks, and mites on companion animals and poultry. We examined the efficacy of fluralaner against three species of filth flies. Insecticide-susceptible horn flies and stable flies were tested topically. Fluralaner outperformed permethrin by > 2-fold for the horn flies but underperformed permethrin by > 45-fold for stable flies at 24 h. House flies were tested topically with fluralaner in comparison to permethrin at 48 h and orally with fluralaner in comparison to imidacloprid at 24 h. Topical fluralaner was 6- to 28-fold as toxic as permethrin in four pyrethroid-resistant strains and not significantly less toxic than permethrin in a susceptible strain and a mildly pyrethroid-resistant strain. There was slight cross-resistance between topically applied fluralaner and permethrin in all five insecticide-resistant strains tested. Oral fluralaner was more toxic than imidacloprid in all four house fly strains tested, 9- to 118-fold as toxic. Oral cross-resistance between imidacloprid and fluralaner was not detected, but imidacloprid resistance was not high in any of the tested strains. Fluralaner shows promise for control of horn flies and house flies.
