Project description:Effect of binary mixture of lethal dose of Chlorantraniliprole (LC25) plus azadirachtin (LC25) on gut bacterial diversity in Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smitha) larvae
Project description:Spodoptera frugiperda is the world’s major agricultural pests, and has the distinctive features of high fecundity, strong migratory capacity and high resistance to most insecticides. At present, the control of S. frugiperda in China relies mainly on the spraying of chemical insecticides. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small, single-stranded, non-coding RNAs, and play crucial regulatory roles in various physiological processes, including the insecticide resistance in insects. However, little is known about the regulatory roles of miRNAs on the resistance of S. frugiperda to insecticides. In the present research, the miRNAs that were differentially expressed after cyantraniliprole, spinetoram, emamectin benzoate and tetraniliprole treatment were analyzed by RNA-Seq. A total of 504 miRNAs were systematically identified from S. frugiperda, and 24, 22, 31 and 30 miRNAs were differentially expressed after treatments of cyantraniliprole, spinetoram, emamectin benzoate and tetraniliprole. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses were used to predict the function of differentially expressed miRNAs’ target genes. Importantly, ten miRNAs were significantly differentially expressed among the treatments of three insecticides. MiR-278-5p, miR-13b-3p, miR-10485-5p and miR-10483-5p were significantly down-regulated among the treatments of three insecticides by RT-qPCR. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-278-5p, miR-13b-3p, miR-10485-5p and miR-10483-5p significantly increased the mortality of S. frugiperda to cyantraniliprole and emamectin benzoate. The mortality was significantly increased with spinetoram treatment after overexpression of miR-13b-3p, miR-10485-5p and miR-10483-5p. These results suggest that miRNAs, which are differentially expressed in response to insecticides, may play a key regulatory role in the insecticide resistance in S. frugiperda.
Project description:This study investigates the baseline or inducible differences in between populations of Atlantic salmon lice Lepeophtheirus salmonis with differing levels of resistance to the parasiticidal drug emamectin benzoate (EMB), as well as the induced effects of EMB exposure to Pacific salmon lice. F1 generation lice were exposed in bioassays to a dilution series of emamectin benzoate.
Project description:This study investigates the transcriptomic responses of salmon lice (L. salmonis) infecting salmon treated with emamectin benzoate (either 1x or 3x), ivermectin, or commercial feed controls
Project description:This study investigates transcriptomic responses of Pacific salmon lice, Lepeophtheirus salmonis, to infection with the microsporidian Facilispora margolisi and/or exposure to emamectin benzoate (EMB), an antiparasitic agent commonly used in salmon aquaculture.
Project description:to profile the adverse effects of an emamectin benzoate trunk-injection agent on pine wood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus by analysing differential transcripts from the nematode whole genome through next-generation high-throughput sequencing.
Project description:This experiment was conducted to study the short-term (12h) transcriptional responses in Daphnia magna after exposure to the anti-sea lice chemical emamectin benzoate (EMB). The microarray results were further vefiried using qPCR. The gene exression responses were linked to adverse effects after 48h exposure, in order to supply knowledge for environmental hazard assessment of this chemical in non-target crustaceans. Neonatal (<24h) Daphnia magna were exposed to 7.8-2000 pM waterborne emamectin benzoate for 12h. Microarray analysis was performed using pooled whole-organism D. magna (8 individuals) and 4 biological replicates were analyzed for each treatment group.

F1 generation lice were exposed in bioassays to a dilution series of emamectin benzoate. Two separate experiments were conducted, one for Atlantic and one for Pacific salmon lice (to be analyzed separately). Atlantic pre-adult salmon lice, separated into male and female, and sensitive or resistant to EMB populations, and exposed to a dilution series: 0 (control), 0.1, 25, 300, and 1000 parts per billion EMB. For each combination four biological replicates were included, except male resistant 25 (n = 3) and female resistant 300 (n = 2). Pacific pre-adult lice of both sexes were exposed to a dilution series: 0 (control), 25, 50 parts per billion EMB.
