Abstract
BACKGROUND Two consecutive field trials using a blend of entomopathogens in combination with a new chemistry insecticide were conducted to determine treatment effects on onion thrips (Thrips tabaci Lindeman) populations, crop damage, plant development, crop yield and impact on natural enemies. Products were tested in an onion cropping system and included the insect pathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana (isolate WG-11), an entomopathogenic nematode Heterorhabditis bacteriophora (strain VS) and the new-chemistry chemical insecticide spinetoram. RESULTS In all treatments, a significant decrease in thrips per plant population was detected in both trials. Overall, dual application of entomopathogens and insecticide was more effective than singly applied treatments. The lowest number of thrips larvae (1.96 and 3.85) and adults (0.00 and 0.00) were recorded when treated with dual application of B. bassiana and spinetoram at 7 days post application (DPA) after the second spray application in 2017and 2018, respectively. Damage on onion plants was considerably decreased in all treatments relative to the control. The lowest damage was observed on onion plants treated with B. bassiana + spinetoram at 7 DPA after the second spray application during both years. A significant decrease in the number of natural enemies (beetles, spiders, mites, lacewings, ants and bugs) on onion plants was recorded during both years. Insect pathogens when applied alone and in combination with each other considerably protected arthropod natural enemies compared to insecticide application applied alone. Significant increase in plant agronomic traits was observed compared to the control. Among all the treatments, B. bassiana + spinetoram produced maximum leaf length, leaf weight, total leaves, neck diameter, bulb diameter, number of rings per bulb, bulb weight, dry matter and plant yield following the 2017and 2018 applications, respectively. CONCLUSION The findings of the study reveal the potential of using insect pathogens and insecticide for control of T. tabaci. However, combinations containing spinetoram are harmful to nontarget organisms, whereas biological control agents help in protecting biodiversity in onion agroecosystems. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Regional differences in susceptibility to spinosyn insecticides registered for Colorado potato beetle management in Canada. PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2023; 193:105459. [PMID: 37248024 DOI: 10.1016/j.pestbp.2023.105459] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2022] [Revised: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023]
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.

Unfolding the mitochondrial genome structure of green semilooper (Chrysodeixis acuta Walker): An emerging pest of onion (Allium cepa L.). PLoS One 2022; 17:e0273635. [PMID: 36040876 PMCID: PMC9426943 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0273635] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Onion is the most important crop challenged by a diverse group of insect pests in the agricultural ecosystem. The green semilooper (Chrysodeixis acuta Walker), a widespread tomato and soybean pest, has lately been described as an emergent onion crop pest in India. C. acuta whole mitochondrial genome was sequenced in this work. The circular genome of C. acuta measured 15,743 base pairs (bp) in length. Thirteen protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and one control region were found in the 37 sequence elements. With an average 395 bp gene length, the maximum and minimum gene length observed was 1749 bp and 63 bp of nad5 and trnR, respectively. Nine of the thirteen PCGs have (ATN) as a stop codon, while the other four have a single (T) as a stop codon. Except for trnS1, all of the tRNAs were capable of producing a conventional clover leaf structure. Conserved ATAGA motif sequences and poly-T stretch were identified at the start of the control region. Six overlapping areas and 18 intergenic spacer regions were found, with sizes ranged from 1 to 20 bp and 1 to 111 bp correspondingly. Phylogenetically, C. acuta belongs to the Plusiinae subfamily of the Noctuidae superfamily, and is closely linked to Trichoplusia ni species from the same subfamily. In the present study, the emerging onion pest C. acuta has its complete mitochondrial genome sequenced for the first time.

Abstract
Allium leafminer, Phytomyza gymnostoma Loew (Diptera: Agromyzidae), is an invasive pest of allium crops in North America. Spinosyn insecticides, spinetoram and spinosad, have been effective choices for managing P. gymnostoma infestations in allium crops, but their use should be optimized for economical and resistance management purposes. In New York from 2018 through 2020, performance of each spinosyn insecticide was evaluated by making two applications spaced either 1 or 2 wk apart beginning at various intervals after P. gymnostoma was first detected in the field; a weekly spray program also was included. Results indicated that weekly applications of each spinosyn insecticide provided ≥98% reduction of P. gymnostoma densities in scallions and leeks relative to the untreated control. Spinetoram applied twice, regardless of initial timing and duration between sprays, provided an acceptable level of P. gynostoma control (71 to 98% reduction in densities relative to the untreated control). Spinosad also was effective when applied twice (85 to 95% reduction in densities relative to the untreated control), but not when sprays were made consecutively beginning when P. gymnostoma was first detected and not when the P. gymnostoma infestation was extremely high (i.e., 38 insects per plant in the untreated control). Management of P. gymnostoma with spinosyns can be successful with only two applications, but control tended to be best when first applied 2 to 3 wk after initial detection. Optimizing applications of spinetoram and spinosad will save growers time, reduce insecticide costs, and mitigate resistance development without significantly increasing the risk of yield reduction.

Abstract
Simple Summary Parthenogenesis is an asexual type of reproduction that usually occurs in thrips. Thelytokous parthenogenesis is a kind of reproduction that produces female progeny without mating. This study reports a thelytokous reproduction of the onion thrips, Thrips tabaci Lindeman 1889, host strain infesting Welsh onion. Cytochrome oxidase I (COI) sequences of the populations exhibited specific residues at conserved positions of thelytokous biotype (called ‘L2’). Phylogenetic tree analysis revealed that COI sequences of the onion thrips collected from different local populations infesting Welsh onion were clustered with L2 biotype populations. In the laboratory, the thelytokous reproduction was demonstrated because each single thrips produced only female progeny. Interestingly, these thelytokous populations collected from different localities showed a certain level of genetic diversity. However, the genetic distance was independent of the actual distance among different local populations. Results of this study indicate that T. tabaci infesting Welsh onion is a thelytokous biotype with genetic variation among local populations. Abstract Parthenogenesis is not uncommon in thrips. This asexual reproduction produces males (arrhenotokous) or female (thelytokous). Only females are found in the onion thrips (Thrips tabaci Lindeman 1889) infesting Welsh onion (Allium fistulosum) in several areas of Korea. To determine the reproduction mode of T. tabaci, thrips infesting Welsh onion were collected from different localities in Korea. Cytochrome oxidase I (COI) sequences were then assessed. Results showed that all test local populations had signature motif specific to a thelytokous type. These COI sequences were clustered with other thelytokous populations separated from arrhenotokous T. tabaci populations. In a laboratory test, individual rearing produced female progeny without any males. These results support that Korean onion thrips infesting Welsh onion have the thelytokous type of parthenogenesis. Local thrips populations exhibited significant variations in susceptibility to chemical and biological insecticides. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis indicated genetic variations of local populations. However, the genetic distance estimated from RAPD was independent of the actual distance among different local populations. These results suggest that genetic variations of T. tabaci are arisen from population subdivision due to asexual thelytokous reproductive mode.

Abstract
Onion thrips (Thrips tabaci Lindeman) is one of onion's most damaging insect pests and has a history of developing resistance across insecticide classes. The susceptibility of T. tabaci populations to insecticides can be determined using laboratory bioassays. Three types of bioassays have been documented in the literature specifically for use with T. tabaci: vial assay (contact only), feeding assay (ingestion only), and leaf-dip assay (contact + ingestion). The objectives of this study were to 1) compare insecticide susceptibility levels of a T. tabaci population using these three assays and 2) determine which bioassay's results were most similar to those generated from exposing thrips to whole plants treated with insecticide. All experiments were conducted using a colony of T. tabaci known to be susceptible to insecticides and all were evaluated for their susceptibility to spinetoram (Radiant SC). Results indicated that 1) each bioassay generated a unique concentration-mortality relationship and LC50 value (0.01, 0.03 and 1.6 ppm for leaf-dip, vial, and feeding assays, respectively), and 2) all bioassays overestimated the susceptibility of the population relative to the whole-plant assay (LC50 = 5.3 ppm). Attributes of these bioassays are discussed relative to their future use in insecticide resistance monitoring programs for T. tabaci.

Abstract
Simple Summary Onion thrips (Thrips tabaci) is a major pest in organic onion production and effective integrated pest management strategies are lacking. Our objective was to evaluate pest management programs consisting of several different tactics: (1) two onion plant cultivars with semi-glossy leaves (“Rossa di Milano” and B5336AxB5351C) and one with waxy leaves (“Bradley”), (2) silver reflective and white plastic mulches, and (3) with or without an application of a biopesticide (spinosad + neem oil tank mix). Thrips densities were counted weekly and bulbs weighed at harvest. The application of the biopesticide had the most significant reduction in thrips densities and increase in yield. The cultivar “Rossa di Milano” had lower thrips densities compared with “Bradley” and B5336AxB5351C, but also had the lowest yield. Reflective mulch had lower thrips densities than white mulch but had no effect on yield. None of the other tactics provided any significant additional benefits to thrips management. While biopesticides will still be a key component to onion thrips management programs, their application frequency should be further optimized. Abstract Onion thrips (Thrips tabaci Lindeman) is a major pest in organic onion production and effective integrated pest management strategies are lacking. Our objective was to evaluate combinations of semi-glossy (“Rossa di Milano” and B5336AxB5351C) and waxy (“Bradley”) onion cultivars with reflective mulch, with or without biopesticides (spinosad + neem oil tank mix), to manage T. tabaci in organic onion production. Thrips densities were assessed weekly and bulbs graded and weighed at harvest. Onions sprayed with spinosad + neem oil had fewer T. tabaci (adults: 74% (2019); larvae: 40% (2018), 84% (2019) and produced higher yields (13% (2018), 23% (2019)) than onions that were unsprayed, regardless of mulch type or onion cultivar. “Rossa di Milano” had relatively fewer adult and larval thrips populations compared with “Bradley” (21% (2018), 32% (2019)) and B5336AxB5351C. However, “Rossa di Milano” had the lowest marketable yield in both years. Reflective mulch reduced densities on certain dates in both years compared to white mulch, but the largest and most consistent reduction only occurred in 2019. Reflective mulch had no impact on bulb yield. While spinosad + neem oil reduced thrips numbers and increased yield alone, none of the treatment combinations were effective at suppressing populations of thrips. Future T. tabaci management in organic onions will require optimization of the available effective biopesticides.

Abstract
Thrips tabaci is a key pest of onions, especially in the Pacific Northwestern USA. Management of T. tabaci is dominated by the application of various insecticides. However, T. tabaci is known to develop insecticide resistance which possibly leads to control failures, crop loss, and environmental concern. Here, we evaluated resistance status of T. tabaci populations from conventional and organic commercial onion fields to three widely used insecticides: oxamyl, methomyl, and abamectin with on-field concentration-mortality bioassays. The biochemistry and molecular mechanisms underlying resistance to these insecticides were also investigated by using enzymatic assays and detecting resistance-associated mutations. Field-evolved resistance to oxamyl, methomyl and abamectin were detected in most of the T. tabaci populations collected from conventional onion farms. At the labeled field rate, all the tested insecticides, particularly methomyl and oxamyl, had significantly reduced efficacy. Enzymatic assays of insecticide target and detoxification enzymes indicated that T. tabaci populations in Western USA onions harbor multiple mechanisms of resistance including enhanced activities of detoxification enzymes and target site insensitivity. Our results provide new information in understanding the dynamics of T. tabaci adaptation to multiple insecticides, which will help to design sustainable insecticide resistance management strategies for T. tabaci. Furthermore, this study provides the foundation for future research in identifying the biochemical and molecular markers associated with insecticide resistance in T. tabaci.

Abstract
Our study investigated the effects of spinetoram on the developmental toxicity and immunotoxicity of zebrafish. 10 h post-fertilization (hpf) zebrafish embryos were exposed to several concentrations of spinetoram (0, 5.0 mg/L, 7.5 mg/L, 10 mg/L) for up to 96 hpf, and their mortality, heart rate, number of innate and adaptive immune cells, oxidative stress, apoptosis and gene expression were detected. Studies indicated that the spinetoram exposed zebrafish embryos showed yolk sac edema, slow growth, decreased heart rate, decreased number of immune cells, delayed thymic development and cell apoptosis. In addition, there were also significant changes in oxidative stress related indicators in zebrafish, the content of ROS and MDA and the activity of CAT and SOD increased with the increase of spinetoram concentration. Moreover, we detected the expression of TLR4 related genes including TLR4, MYD88 and NF-κB p65 which were significantly up-regulated in the treated groups. Meanwhile, we also found that pro-inflammatory factors IL-6, IL-8, IFN-γ and CXCL-c1c were up-regulated, but anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 was down-regulated in the treated groups. Briefly, our results show that spinetoram induces the developmental toxicity and immunotoxicity of zebrafish to a certain extent, providing basis for the further research on the molecular mechanism of spinetoram exposure to aquatic ecosystems.
