Chen Y, Cen Y, Liu Y, Peng Y, Lin Y, Feng Q, Xiao Y, Zheng S. P450 gene CYP6a13 is responsible for cross-resistance of insecticides in field populations of Spodoptera frugiperda. INSECT SCIENCE 2024. [PMID: 38770715 DOI: 10.1111/1744-7917.13376] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2024] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
Continuous and long-term use of traditional and new pesticides can result in cross-resistance among pest populations in different fields. Study on the mechanism of cross-resistance and related genes will help resistance management and field pest control. In this study, the pesticide-resistance mechanism in Spodoptera frugiperda (FAW) was studied with field populations in 3 locations of South China. Field FAW populations were highly resistant to traditional insecticides, chlorpyrifos (organophosphate) and deltamethrin (pyrethroid), and had higher levels of cytochrome P450 activity than a non-resistant laboratory strain. Inhibition of P450 activity by piperonyl butoxide significantly increased the sensitivity of resistant FAW in 3 locations to chlorpyrifos, deltamethrin and chlorantraniliprole (amide), a new type of insecticide, suggesting that P450 detoxification is a critical factor for insecticide resistance in field FAW populations. Transcriptomic analysis indicated that 18 P450 genes were upregulated in the field FAW populations collected in 3 regions and in 2 consecutive years, with CYP6a13, the most significantly upregulated one. Knockdown of CYP6a13 messenger RNA by RNA interference resulted in an increased sensitivity to the 3 tested insecticides in the field FAW. Enzyme activity and molecular docking analyses indicated that CYP6a13 enzyme was able to metabolize the 3 tested insecticides and interact with 8 other types of insecticides, confirming that CYP6a13 is a key cross-resistance gene with a wide range of substrates in the field FAW populations across the different regions and can be used as a biomarker and target for management of FAW insecticide resistance in fields.

Adult mosquitoes of the sibling species Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii exhibit contrasting patterns of susceptibility to four neonicotinoid insecticides along an urban-to-rural gradient in Yaoundé, Cameroon. Malar J 2024; 23:65.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neonicotinoids are potential alternatives for controlling pyrethroid-resistant mosquitoes, but their efficacy against malaria vector populations of sub-Saharan Africa has yet to be investigated. The aim of the present study was to test the efficacy of four neonicotinoids against adult populations of the sibling species Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii sampled along an urban-to-rural gradient. METHODS The lethal toxicity of three active ingredients for adults of two susceptible Anopheles strains was assessed using concentration-response assays, and their discriminating concentrations were calculated. The discriminating concentrations were then used to test the susceptibility of An. gambiae and An. coluzzii mosquitoes collected from urban, suburban and rural areas of Yaoundé, Cameroon, to acetamiprid, imidacloprid, clothianidin and thiamethoxam. RESULTS Lethal concentrations of neonicotinoids were relatively high suggesting that this class of insecticides has low toxicity against Anopheles mosquitoes. Reduced susceptibility to the four neonicotinoids tested was detected in An. gambiae populations collected from rural and suburban areas. By contrast, adults of An. coluzzii that occurred in urbanized settings were susceptible to neonicotinoids except acetamiprid for which 80% mortality was obtained within 72 h of insecticide exposure. The cytochrome inhibitor, piperonyl butoxide (PBO), significantly enhanced the activity of clothianidin and acetamiprid against An. gambiae mosquitoes. CONCLUSIONS These findings corroborate susceptibility profiles observed in larvae and highlight a significant variation in tolerance to neonicotinoids between An. gambiae and An. coluzzii populations from Yaoundé. Further studies are needed to disentangle the role of exposure to agricultural pesticides and of cross-resistance mechanisms in the development of neonicotinoid resistance in some Anopheles species.

Anopheles gambiae larvae's ability to grow and emerge in water containing lethal concentrations of clothianidin, acetamiprid, or imidacloprid is consistent with cross-resistance to neonicotinoids. Parasit Vectors 2024; 17:98.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For decades, various agrochemicals have been successfully repurposed for mosquito control. However, preexisting resistance caused in larval and adult populations by unintentional pesticide exposure or other cross-resistance mechanisms poses a challenge to the efficacy of this strategy. A better understanding of larval adaptation to the lethal and sublethal effects of residual pesticides in aquatic habitats would provide vital information for assessing the efficacy of repurposed agrochemicals against mosquitoes. METHODS We reared field-collected mosquito larvae in water containing a concentration of agrochemical causing 100% mortality in susceptible mosquitoes after 24 h (lethal concentration). Using this experimental setup, we tested the effect of lethal concentrations of a pyrrole (chlorfenapyr, 0.10 mg/l), a pyrethroid (deltamethrin, 1.5 mg/l), and three neonicotinoids including imidacloprid (0.075 mg/l), acetamiprid (0.15 mg/l), and clothianidin (0.035 mg/l) on mortality rates, growth, and survival in third-instar larvae of the two sibling species Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii collected from Yaoundé, Cameroon. RESULTS We found that An. gambiae and An. coluzzii larvae were susceptible to chlorfenapyr and were killed within 24 h by a nominal concentration of 0.10 mg/l. Consistent with strong resistance, deltamethrin induced low mortality in both species. Lethal concentrations of acetamiprid, imidacloprid, and clothianidin strongly inhibited survival, growth, and emergence in An. coluzzii larvae. By contrast, depending on the active ingredient and the population tested, 5-60% of immature stages of An. gambiae were able to grow and emerge in water containing a lethal concentration of neonicotinoids, suggesting cross-resistance to this class of insecticides. CONCLUSIONS These findings corroborate susceptibility profiles observed in adults and suggest that unintentional pesticide exposure or other cross-resistance processes could contribute to the development of resistance to neonicotinoids in some Anopheles populations.

Abstract
The evolution of insecticide resistance has threatened the control of Nilaparvata lugens. Research on mechanisms behind neonicotinoid resistance in N. lugens remains incomplete. This study examined P450-mediated resistance to neonicotinoids in a resistant N. lugens strain (XA-2017-3G). The overexpression of CYP6ER1 in the XA-2017-3G strain plays a role in neonicotinoid resistance, as confirmed by RNA interference. Phenotypic analyses of CYP6ER1-mediated resistance in strains, including laboratory-susceptible, field-collected, and imidacloprid-laboratory further-selected strains, revealed that the vA-type/vL-type genotype exhibited greater resistance to neonicotinoids compared to the vA-type/vA-type genotype. The mRNA expression levels of CYP6ER1vA-type were closely correlated with the levels of neonicotinoid resistance in N. lugens strains, in which CYP6ER1vA-type overexpression is in part attributed to increased copy numbers of CYP6ER1. CYP6ER1vA-type-mediated neonicotinoid resistance was further confirmed by a CYP6ER1vA-type transgenic Drosophila melanogaster line. Taken together, our findings strongly suggest that the overexpression of CYP6ER1vA-type, which can be partially attributed to copy number variations, plays a crucial role in N. lugens resistance to neonicotinoids.

Abstract
Neonicotinoids (NEOs) and fipronil (FIP) are ubiquitous in aquatic environment, yet the transformation and water-sediment exchange are largely unknown for these systemic insecticides and their transformation products (TPs). Herein, occurrence, field-based partitioning coefficients, and fugacity fractions (ff) of NEOs, FIP, and their TPs were analyzed in the drainage and receiving rivers near a rice paddy field. NEOs and FIPs were frequently detected in the sediments with concentrations of TPs being often higher than the parent compounds. Average ff values of NEOs (0.944-1.00) were larger than those of FIPs (0.399-0.716), indicating NEOs had a greater tendency to diffuse from sediment into water. Similar as well-studied hydrophobic compounds, hydrophobicity was the main factor impacting the water-sediment exchange of moderately hydrophobic FIPs. Alternatively, electrostatic interactions governed the fate of hydrophilic NEOs in water-sediment system. The log Kd values of NEOs were positively correlated with their N/C ratios (p < 0.05), possibly because the negatively charged sediments (zeta potential were from -19.1 ± 0.6 to -5.84 ± 0.57 mV) generated electrostatic attraction with amino functional group. Our study highlighted the ubiquitousness of TPs and distinct water-sediment interaction for moderately hydrophobic and hydrophilic insecticides in an agriculture-dominated watershed.

Overexpression of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase is associated with sulfoxaflor resistance and neonicotinoid cross-resistance in Nilaparvata lugens (Stål). PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2023; 194:105467.

Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR), a crucial electron-transfer partner of P450 systems, is required for various biological reactions catalyzed by P450 monooxygenase. Our previous study indicated that enhanced P450 enzyme detoxification and CYP6ER1 overexpression contributed to sulfoxaflor resistance in Nilaparvata lugens. However, the association between CPR, sulfoxaflor resistance, and neonicotinoid cross-resistance in N. lugens remains unclear. In this study, the sulfoxaflor-resistant (SFX-SEL) (RR = 254.04-fold), resistance-decline (DESEL) (RR = 18.99-fold), and susceptible unselected (UNSEL) strains of N. lugens with the same genetic background were established. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) revealed that the N. lugens CPR (NlCPR) expression level in the SFX-SEL strain was 6.85-fold and 6.07-fold higher than in UNSEL and DESEL strains, respectively. NlCPR expression was significantly higher in the abdomens of UNSEL, DESEL, and SFX-SEL fourth-instar nymphs than in other tissues (thoraxes, heads, and legs). Additionally, sulfoxaflor stress significantly increased NlCPR mRNA levels in the UNSEL, SFX-SEL and DESEL strains. NlCPR silencing by RNA interference (RNAi) dramatically increased the susceptibility of the UNSEL, DESEL, and SFX-SEL strains to sulfoxaflor, but the recovery of SFX-SEL was more obvious. Furthermore, NlCPR silencing led to a significant recovery in susceptibility to nitenpyram, dinotefuran, clothianidin, and thiamethoxam across all strains (UNSEL, DESEL, and SFX-SEL), with the greatest degree of recovery in the sulfoxaflor-resistant strain (SFX-SEL). Our findings suggest that NlCPR overexpression contributes to sulfoxaflor resistance and neonicotinoid cross-resistance in N. lugens. This will aid in elucidating the significance of CPR in the evolution of P450-mediated metabolic resistance in N. lugens.

Abstract
Gill's mealybug, Ferrisia gilli (Gullan) (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), is a major pest of pistachio in California. Insecticide treatment is the primary control method and acetamiprid is widely used to control this pest. However, there have been numerous reports of control failures for F. gilli after field applications of recommended insecticides in recent years. The purpose of this study was to develop a method for routine monitoring of F. gilli susceptibility and quantify current levels of F. gilli susceptibility to acetamiprid. A leaf-dip bioassay method using lima bean leaves was established and baseline susceptibility responses of 5 field populations were determined. Lethal concentrations to kill 50% of population (LC50) for second instar nymphs at 48 h ranged from 0.367 to 2.398 µg(AI)ml-1 of acetamiprid. Similarly, lethal concentrations to kill 90% of population (LC90) for second instar nymphs at 48 h ranged from 2.887 to 10.752 µg(AI)ml-1 of acetamiprid. The F. gilli population collected from Hanford area showed up to 6.5-fold significantly decreased mortality to acetamiprid compared to other populations. The resistance identified in this study, although relatively low, indicates that there has been repeated pressure to select for acetamiprid resistance and resistance levels can further magnify if effective management steps are not taken. The baseline susceptibility established in this study can be used to investigate potential cause of recent acetamiprid failures against F. gilli. In the long-term, results of this study will support the development of resistance management strategies by monitoring shifts in the susceptibility of F. gilli populations.

Abstract
CYP6ER1 overexpression is a prevalent mechanism for neonicotinoid resistance in Nilaparvata lugens. Except for imidacloprid, the metabolism of other neonicotinoids by CYP6ER1 lacked direct evidence. In this study, a CYP6ER1 knockout strain (CYP6ER1-/-) was constructed using the CRISPR/Cas9 strategy. The CYP6ER1-/- strain showed much higher susceptibility to imidacloprid and thiacloprid with an SI (sensitivity index, LC50 of WT/LC50 of CYP6ER1-/-) of over 100, which was 10-30 for four neonicotinoids (acetamiprid, nitenpyram, clothianidin, and dinotefuran) and less than 5 for flupyradifurone and sulfoxaflor. Recombinant CYP6ER1 showed the highest activity to metabolize imidacloprid and thiacloprid and moderate activity for the other four neonicotinoids. Main metabolite identification and oxidation site prediction revealed that CYP6ER1 activities were insecticide structure-dependent. The most potential oxidation site of imidacloprid and thiacloprid was located in the five-membered heterocycle with hydroxylation activity. For the other four neonicotinoids, the potential site was within the ring opening of a five-membered heterocycle, indicating N-desmethyl activity.
