Unveiling Nilaparvata lugens Stal Genes Defining Compatible and Incompatible Interactions with Rice through Transcriptome Analysis and Gene Silencing.

ABSTRACT: The brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens Stål, BPH) is a major pest of rice (Oryza sativa L.), causing severe crop loss. Multiple biotypes and emerging populations of BPH pose a bigger challenge for the infestations control. Although several studies have been conducted to understand the molecular mechanisms of rice-BPH interactions, there are few studies dedicated to the Indian sub-continent BPH biotype (biotype 4). Here, we analyzed the transcriptomic, physiological, and gene-silencing responses of the BPH biotype 4 during the compatible (fed on susceptible Taichung Native 1, TN1 rice) and incompatible (fed on resistant PTB33 rice) rice-BPH interactions. In the incompatible interaction, a significant reduction in the honeydew production and negative weight gain were observe
