The role, magnitude, and molecular nature of trans-driven expression variation underlying the upregulation detoxification genes in pesticide resistant arthropod populations has remained enigmatic. In this study, we performed quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping (n = 458) between a susceptible strain generalist herbivore crop pest Tetranychus urticae. We found that single trans eQTL hotspot controlled large differences subset different gene families, as well other associated with host...
The extreme adaptation potential of the generalist herbivore Tetranychus urticae (the two-spotted spider mite) to pesticides as well diverse host plants has been associated with clade-specific gene expansions in known detoxifying enzyme families, and extensive rapid transcriptional responses. However, how this broad is regulated remains largely unknown. Using a parental/F1 design which four inbred strains were crossed common strain, we assessed genetic basis inheritance expression variation...
Pyrethroids are widely applied insecticides in agriculture, but their frequent use has provoked many cases of resistance, which mutations the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC), pyrethroid target-site, were shown to play a major role. However, for spider mite Tetranychus urticae, it also been that increased detoxification contributes resistance against bifenthrin. Here, we performed QTL-mapping identify genomic loci underlying bifenthrin T. urticae. Two on chromosome 1 identified, with VGSC...
Abstract Pesticide resistance relies on a myriad of mechanisms, ranging from single mutations to complex and polygenic architecture, it involves mechanisms such as target‐site insensitivity, metabolic detoxification, or combination these, with either additive synergistic effects. Several against abamectin, macrocyclic lactone widely used in crop protection, have been reported the cosmopolitan pest Tetranychus urticae . However, has shown that mechanism cannot account for high levels...
Abstract Dicofol has been widely used to control phytophagous mites. Although dicofol is chemically related DDT, its mode of action remained elusive. Here, we mapped resistance in the spider mite Tetranychus urticae two genomic regions. Each region harbored a glutamate-gated chloride channel (GluCl) gene that contained mutation—G314D or G326E—known confer against unrelated acaricide abamectin. Using electrophysiology assays showed and other diphenylcarbinol acaricides—bromopropylate...
Abstract Interactions between plants and herbivores promote evolutionary change. Studying the evolution of herbivore mechanisms aimed to cope with diUerent host plant species is a critical intersection biology sustainable pest management. Generalist are particular interest, as hybridization genetically distinct populations can increase standing genetic variation therefore adaptive potential species. Tetranychus urticae generalist arthropod known for its potential, evidenced in immense range...
