Article Abstract
Background: The citrus red mite, Panonychus citri (McGregor), a global pest of citrus, has developed different levels of resistance to various acaricides in the field. Abamectin is one of the most important insecticides/acaricides worldwide, targetting a wide number of insect and mite pests. The evolution of abamectin resistance in P. citri is threatening the sustainable use of abamectin for mite control.
Results: The abamectin resistant strain (NN-Aba), derived from a field strain NN by consistent selection with abamectin, showed 4279-fold resistance to abamectin compared to a relatively susceptible strain (SS) of P. citri. Cross-resistance of NN-Aba was observed between abamectin and emamectin benzoate, pyridaben, fenpropathrin and cyflumetofen. Inheritance analyses indicated that abamectin resistance in the NN-Aba strain was autosomal, incompletely recessive and polygenic. The synergy experiment showed that abamectin toxicity was synergized by piperonyl butoxide (PBO), diethyl maleate (DEM) and tributyl phosphorotrithiotate (TPP) in the NN-Aba strain, and synergy ratios were 2.72-, 2.48- and 2.13-fold, respectively. The glutathione-S-transferases activity in the NN-Aba strain were significantly increased by 2.08-fold compared with the SS strain.
Conclusion: The abamectin resistance was autosomal, incompletely recessive and polygenic in P. citri. The NN-Aba strain showed cross-resistance to various acaricides with different modes of action. Metabolic detoxification mechanism participated in abamectin resistance in NN-Aba strain. These findings provide useful information for resistance management of P. citri in the field. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Background: The rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis Walker (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), is a damaging pest of rice worldwide. Following the evolution of C. suppressalis resistance to diamide and abamectin insecticides, emamectin benzoate (EB) became a key insecticide for the control of this species in China.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of two specific genes (PxFMO2 and SeCYP9A186) in insecticide resistance in the diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) by using transgenic technology.
- Two transgenic strains were created: one expressing PxFMO2 showed significant resistance to certain pesticides (12-fold for emamectin benzoate), while the strain with SeCYP9A186 exhibited even greater resistance (235-fold).
- The findings highlight how these genes contribute to resistance and offer potential tools for genetic manipulation to improve pest management strategies.

Article Synopsis
- The two-spotted spider mite, a significant pest for glasshouse roses in China, has developed resistance to many acaricides, impacting rose production.
- Testing of 10 mite populations revealed that they were resistant to at least eight acaricides, with some populations showing over 70,000-fold resistance to abamectin and evidence of new mutations related to this resistance.
- Findings emphasize the urgent need for managed resistance strategies in rose cultivation, given the widespread multi-acaricide resistance and the discovery of a new mutation associated with resistance to bifenazate.

Article Synopsis
- * The study identified five FMO genes and found that specific genes (FMO3B and FMO3C) were overexpressed in field populations resistant to treatments like chlorantraniliprole and spinetoram, but not to all insecticides.
- * Molecular studies confirmed that these FMOs directly bind to certain insecticides, contributing to metabolic resistance, highlighting their importance in developing effective pest management strategies.

Article Synopsis
- The rice stem borer is developing resistance to key insecticides, posing a challenge for its control and management in agriculture.
- Research on 126 populations from China showed moderate to high resistance to four main insecticides, revealing genetic mutations linked to this resistance.
- Understanding these resistance mechanisms, including both target-site mutations and nontarget mechanisms like enzyme overexpression, can aid in developing effective and sustainable pest management strategies.
