    Abstract:
    Gossypol and tannin are involved in important chemical defense processes in cotton plants. In this study, we used transcriptomics and proteomics to explore the changes in salivary gland functional genes and oral secretion (OS) proteins after feeding with artificial diet (containing gossypols and tannins) and cotton plant leaves. We found that dietary cotton plant leaves, gossypols and tannins exerted adverse impacts on the genes that regulated the functions of peptidase, GTPase, glycosyl hydrolases in the salivary glands of the Helicoverpa armigera (H. armigera). However, GST, UGT, hydrolases, and lipase genes were up-regulated to participate in the detoxification and digestive of H. armigera. The oral secretory proteins of H. armigera were significantly inhibited under the stress of gossypol and tannin, such as enzyme activity, but some proteins (such as PZC71358.1) were up-regulated and involved in immune and digestive functions. The combined analysis of transcriptomics and metabolomics showed a weak correlation, and the genes and proteins involved were mainly in digestive enzyme activities. Our work clarifies the deleterious physiological impacts of gossypols and tannins on H. armigera and reveals the mechanism by which H. armigera effectively mitigate the phytotoxic effects through detoxification and immune systems.
