Title: Identification of G Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) Associated with Lambda-Cyhalothrin Detoxification in Cydia pomonella. Author: Liu YX, Hu C, Li YT, Gao P, Yang XQ. Journal: J Agric Food Chem; 2024 Jan 10; 72(1):363-377. PubMed ID: 38134348. Abstract: While previous studies have reported G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-mediated insecticide resistance in various arthropods, the understanding of GPCR-associated resistance mechanisms in Cydia pomonella remains limited. In this study, a total of 95 CpGPCR genes categorized into four families were identified in C. pomonella. Results revealed high expression levels of the majority of the CpGPCRs during the first larval stage and in the head of C. pomonella. Exposure to lambda-cyhalothrin significantly increased the expression of 15 CpGPCRs, including CpGPCR70, which is highly expressed in all larval stages and shows the highest expression in the midgut. RNA interference (RNAi) demonstrated that downregulation of CpGPCR70 leads to reduced expression of key resistance-related genes and a decreased tolerance of larvae to lambda-cyhalothrin. These findings indicate that CpGPCR70 plays a crucial role in regulating the expression of detoxifying genes involved in lambda-cyhalothrin resistance, offering valuable insights for the development of more effective pest control strategies.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
