摘要
柑橘全爪螨(Panonychus citri)是一种全球性的主要害虫螨,对柑橘产业造成了巨大的经济损失。由于长期使用杀螨剂,柑橘粉虱产生了抗药性;因此,确定替代控制措施是必要的。本研究成功克隆并鉴定了柑桔表皮蛋白(CP) r -2亚家族的三个基因,分别为PcCPR14、PcCPR15.7和PcCPR16.8。这些基因在第4和5天的卵中表达量最高,在第1天的幼虫和若虫中表达量相对较高。抑制蛋白PcCPR16.8在卵中的表达导致只有23%的孵化成功率。同样,沉默PcCPR16.8在若虫中被抑制导致角质层破裂,死亡率为81.77%。雌螨的沉默使雌螨的产卵率降低了31.06%,并显著降低了柑橘螨的几丁质含量和几丁质代谢关键基因的表达。这表明CP基因在柑橘的发育和繁殖中起着至关重要的作用。此外,暴露于杀螨剂spirodilofen和etoxazole通常会引发PcCPR16.8的高表达,而沉默该基因会增加螨虫对这些化学物质的敏感性。CPs在抵御环境变化方面至关重要,使其成为开发柑橘柑橘控制策略的潜在目标。
The dual role of the RR-2 cuticular protein gene in development and acaricide susceptibility of Panonychus citri (Acari: Tetranychidae).
Panonychus citri, a major pest mite globally, causes substantial economic damage in the citrus sector. Due to the prolonged use of acaricides, P. citri has developed resistance; thus, identifying alternative control measures is imperative. The study successfully cloned and characterized three genes from the RR-2 subfamily of cuticular proteins (CP) in P. citri, PcCPR14, PcCPR15.7, and PcCPR16.8. These genes exhibited their highest expression in eggs aged 4 and 5 days and showed relatively high expression in larvae and nymphs on day 1. Inhibitin PcCPR16.8 expression in eggs resulted in only 23% hatching success. Similarly, silencing PcCPR16.8 is inhibited in nymphs led to cuticle rupture and a mortality rate of 81.77%. Silencing in female mites reduced the oviposition rate by 31.06% and significantly decreased chitin content and the expression of key chitin metabolism genes in P. citri. This indicates the crucial role of CP genes in the development and reproduction of P. citri. Moreover, exposure to the acaricides spirobudiclofen and etoxazole typically triggers high expression of PcCPR16.8, and silencing this gene increases the mite's sensitivity to these chemicals. CPs are vital in defending against environmental changes, making them potential targets for developing P. citri control strategies.
期刊介绍:
Experimental and Applied Acarology publishes peer-reviewed original papers describing advances in basic and applied research on mites and ticks. Coverage encompasses all Acari, including those of environmental, agricultural, medical and veterinary importance, and all the ways in which they interact with other organisms (plants, arthropods and other animals). The subject matter draws upon a wide variety of disciplines, including evolutionary biology, ecology, epidemiology, physiology, biochemistry, toxicology, immunology, genetics, molecular biology and pest management sciences.
