Abstract
The Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), is a devastating bacterial disease of commercial citrus. Presently, uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glycosyltransferases (UGTs), have been linked to the detoxification of pesticides, were known as phase II enzymes in the detoxification process. However, the role of UGTs in detoxification of lufenuron in Diaphorina citri is unknown. In this study, we identified a UGT gene, UGT379A1, which was significantly up-regulated under the exposure of lufenuron. The knockdown of UGT379A1 increased the susceptibility of D. citri to lufenuron. In vitro metabolism and Dixon plot analysis indicated that UGT379A1 could deplete lufenuron by sequestration. These results showed that UGT379A1 was involved in the lufenuron detoxification, which provides a theoretical basis for the prevention and control of D. citri.
期刊介绍:
Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology publishes original scientific articles pertaining to the mode of action of plant protection agents such as insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, and similar compounds, including nonlethal pest control agents, biosynthesis of pheromones, hormones, and plant resistance agents. Manuscripts may include a biochemical, physiological, or molecular study for an understanding of comparative toxicology or selective toxicity of both target and nontarget organisms. Particular interest will be given to studies on the molecular biology of pest control, toxicology, and pesticide resistance.
Research Areas Emphasized Include the Biochemistry and Physiology of:
• Comparative toxicity
• Mode of action
• Pathophysiology
• Plant growth regulators
• Resistance
• Other effects of pesticides on both parasites and hosts.
