Mechanisms for multiple resistances in field populations of rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) from Sichuan Province, China
Chilo suppressalis Walker (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) is a widely destructive pest occurring in rice, particularly in the rice-growing regions of Asia. In recent years, C. suppressalis has developed resistance to several insecticides because of the extensive use of insecticides. The resistance levels to four insecticides were determined among populations from different regions of Sichuan Province, China, using a drop-method bioassay. Based on LC 50 values of a laboratory susceptible strain, all field populations showed moderate level of resistance to triazophos (23.9- to 83.5-fold) and were either susceptible or had a low level of resistance to abamectin (2.1- to 5.8-fold). All field-collected populations had a low or moderate level of resistance to chlorpyrifos (1.7- to 47.1-fold) and monosultap (2.7- to 13.5-fold). The synergism experiment indicated that the resistance of the XW19 to triazophos may be associated with cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s), with the highest synergistic ratio (SR) of 3.05-fold and increased ratio (IR) of 2.28-fold for piperonylbutoxide (PBO). The P450 activity of the TJ19 population was the greatest among the six field populations. Moreover, the relative expression levels of four resistance-related P450 genes were detected with qRT-PCR, and the results indicated that CYP324A12 , CYP321F3 and CYP9A68 were overexpressed in the resistant population, especially in the XW19 population (by 1.2-, 3.4 -, and 18.0-fold, respectively). In addition, the relative expression levels of CYP9A68 among the CZ19 and TJ19 populations were also enhanced 10.5- and 24.9-fold, respectively. These results suggested that CYP324A12 , CYP321F3 and CYP9A68 may be related to the resistance development of C. suppressalis to triazophos.
