The carmine spider mite (CSM), Tetranychus cinnabarinus, is an important pest mite in agriculture, because it can develop insecticide resistance easily. To gain valuable gene information and molecular basis for the future insecticide resistance study of CSM, the first transcriptome analysis of CSM was conducted. A total of 45,016 contigs and 25,519 unigenes were generated from the de novo transcriptome assembly, and 15,167 unigenes were annotated via BLAST querying against current databases, including nr, SwissProt, the Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COGs), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Gene Ontology (GO). Aligning the transcript to Tetranychus urticae genome, the 19255 (75.45%) of the transcripts had significant (e-value <10-5) matches to T. urticae DNA genome, 19111 sequences matched to T. urticae proteome with an average protein length coverage of 42.55%. Core Eukaryotic Genes Mapping Approach (CEGMA) analysis identified 435 core eukaryotic genes (CEGs) in the CSM dataset corresponding to 95% coverage. Ten gene categories that relate to insecticide resistance in arthropod were generated from CSM transcriptome, including 53 P450-, 22 GSTs-, 23 CarEs-, 1 AChE-, 7 GluCls-, 9 nAChRs-, 8 GABA receptor-, 1 sodium channel-, 6 ATPase- and 12 Cyt b genes. We developed significant molecular resources for T. cinnabarinus putatively involved in insecticide resistance. The transcriptome assembly analysis will significantly facilitate our study on the mechanism of adapting environmental stress (including insecticide) in CSM at the molecular level, and will be very important for developing new control strategies against this pest mite.

Article Synopsis
- The carmine spider mite, a significant pest in agriculture, was studied for differences in susceptibility to acaricides between male and female mites.
- Male mites were found to be consistently more susceptible to various acaricides than females, with a notable difference in lethal concentration values.
- The study suggested that factors such as male size, surface area, cuticle thickness, and differences in detoxification enzyme activity contribute to the observed susceptibility variations between the sexes.

To explore natural product-based pesticide candidates, a series of indole derivatives containing the isoxazoline skeleton at the N-1 position were synthesized by 1,3-dipolar [2 + 3] cycloaddition reaction. Their structures were characterized by melting points (mp), infrared (IR) spectra, proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (H NMR), carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (C NMR), and high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). The single-crystal structures of five compounds were presented.

In the gastrointestinal tract, serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is an important monoamine that regulates intestinal dynamics. QGP-1 cells are human-derived enterochromaffin cells that secrete 5-HT and functionally express Piezo ion channels associated with cellular mechanosensation. Piezo ion channels can be blocked by Grammostola spatulata mechanotoxin 4 (GsMTx4), a spider venom peptide that inhibits cationic mechanosensitive channels.

Background: To discover and develop novel acaricidal compounds, a series of 2-fluoro-4-methyl/chlorine-5-((2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)thio)aniline/phenol compounds containing N/O-benzyl moieties were synthesized based on lead compound LZ-1.
Results: The activity of these compounds against carmine spider mites (Tetranychus cinnabarinus) was determined using the leaf-spray method. Bioassays indicated that most of the designed target compounds possessed moderate to excellent acaricidal activity against adult T.

The carmine spider mite, (Boisduval), is one of the most important acarine pest species. At present, its control remains primarily dependent on using various chemical insecticides/acaricides in agricultural crops worldwide. To clarify the mechanism whereby responds to insecticide exposure, we identified the chitin synthase 1 gene () and then explored the gene expression levels of at different developmental stages of .
