Abstract
- Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Gennadius) is a notorious pest that is capable of feeding on >600 kinds of agricultural crops. Imidacloprid is critical in managing pest with sucking mouthparts, such as B. tabaci. However, the field population of B. tabaci has evolved resistance because of insecticide overuse. The overexpression of the detoxification enzyme cytochrome P450 monooxygenase is considered the main mechanism of imidacloprid resistance, but the mechanism underlying gene regulation remains unclear. MicroRNAs are a type of endogenous small molecule compounds that is fundamental in regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. Whether miRNAs are related to the imidacloprid resistance of B. tabaci remains unknown. To gain deep insight into imidacloprid resistance, we conducted on miRNAs expression profiling of two B. tabaci Mediterranean (MED) strains with 19-fold resistance through deep sequencing of small RNAs. A total of 8 known and 1591 novel miRNAs were identified. In addition, 16 miRNAs showed significant difference in expression levels between the two strains, as verified by quantitative reverse transcription PCR. Among these, novel&#95;miR-376, 1517, and 1136 significantly expressed at low levels in resistant samples, decreasing by 36.9%, 60.2%, and 15.6%, respectively. Moreover, modulating novel&#95;miR-1517 expression by feeding with 1517 inhibitor and 1517 mimic significantly affected B. tabaci imidacloprid susceptibility by regulating CYP6CM1 expression. In this article, miRNAs related to imidacloprid resistance of B. tabaci were systematically screened and identified, providing important information for the miRNA-based technological innovation for this pest management.<br />Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest The authors have declared that no competing interests exist.<br /> (Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
