Background: Nilaparvata lugens, a destructive rice pest in Asia, has developed resistance to many insecticides, including the neonicotinoid clothianidin. CYP6ER1 plays an important role in N. lugens resistant to clothianidin, but only limited information on the transcriptional regulation of CYP6ER1 overexpression in clothianidin resistance is available.
Results: In this study, the transcription factor activator protein 1 (AP-1) was found to be overexpressed in a clothianidin-resistant strain of N. lugens and several field resistant populations. RNA interference-mediated silencing of NlAP-1 significantly decreased CYP6ER1 expression and increased the susceptibility of N. lugens to clothianidin. Additionally, NlAP-1 was highly expressed in egg and adult stages, and in midguts, and NlAP-1 was upregulated and induced to a greater extent in the clothianidin-resistant strain after exposure to clothianidin. Finally, dual-luciferase reporter assays confirmed the interaction between NlAP-1 and the two predicted binding sites in the CYP6ER1 promoter.
Conclusion: NlAP-1 bound the -1388 to -1208-bp region of the CYP6ER1 promoter, enhancing its activity and then regulate the expression of CYP6ER1. These findings enhance our knowledge of the transcriptional regulation of the P450 genes that mediate insecticide resistance in insect pests. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Understanding the insecticide resistance mechanisms and their underlying regulatory pathways is essential for pest management. Previous findings indicated that the overexpression of P450 gene, CYP6ER1, was a key mechanism for sulfoxaflor metabolic resistance in Nilaparvata lugens. However, it remains unclear whether quantitative changes in the target nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) contribute to sulfoxaflor resistance and the underlying regulatory mechanisms involved.

Four P450s were reported to be important for imidacloprid resistance in , a major insect pest on rice, which was confirmed in this study in an imidacloprid-resistant strain (ImiR). Here we found that only two ( and ) from these four P450 genes were overexpressed in a nitenpyram-resistant strain (NitR) when compared to a susceptible strain (SUS). RNAi reduced nitenpyram and imidacloprid resistance in NitR and ImiR strains, with a greater reduction in nitenpyram resistance.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR), a crucial electron-transfer partner of P450 systems, is required for various biological reactions catalyzed by P450 monooxygenase. Our previous study indicated that enhanced P450 enzyme detoxification and CYP6ER1 overexpression contributed to sulfoxaflor resistance in Nilaparvata lugens. However, the association between CPR, sulfoxaflor resistance, and neonicotinoid cross-resistance in N.
