Effect of Spinetoram Stress on Midgut Detoxification Enzyme and Gene Expression of <i>Apis cerana cerana</i> Fabricius.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of Spinetoram (SPI) on the midgut of Apis cerana cerana Fabricius pupae, emphasizing detoxifying enzyme activity, gene expression, and morphological alterations. Pupae were subjected to SPI at LC₂₀ and LC₅₀ concentrations, and the midgut was evaluated using morphological assessment, detoxifying enzyme assays, and transcriptome analysis utilizing gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment. Transcriptome analysis revealed 32 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that were common to both the LC₂₀ vs. control (CK) and LC₅₀ vs. CK comparisons, along with 24 DEGs unique to the LC₂₀ vs. CK comparison and 76 DEGs unique to the LC₅₀ vs. CK comparison.
