    Abstract:
    Cyantraniliprole is the second active ingredient of anthranilic diamide insecticide, and the first to control a cross-spectrum of chewing and sucking pests such as sweetpotato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae). The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) and ryanodine receptor (RyR) are two families of Ca2+ release channels to raise the cytoplasmic free calcium concentration when it is activated by various extracellular stimuli. Previous study proved the over-expression of ryanodine receptor (RyR) was associated with the resistance to diamide insecticides, while the roles of IP3R in diamide resistance remain unknown. In this study, a full-length cDNA sequence of IP3R was cloned from B. tabaci through RT-PCR and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The gene (named BtIP3R) is 9922bps long, with an open reading frame (ORF) of 8202bps, encoding a predicted IP3R of 2733 amino acids. The BtIP3R shares 47-78% identity with other insect IP3Rs. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis showed that the BtIP3R was highly expressed in larva, pseudopupa, and female adult, while lowly expressed in egg and male adult. RNA interference (RNAi) by dietary introduction of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) of BtIP3R significantly reduced the mRNA levels of the target gene in the adult, and dramatically decreased the susceptibility of adult B. tabaci to cyantraniliprole. The results shed light on further understanding of cyantraniliprole resistance mechanisms in B. tabaci as well as in other insects.
