Transcriptome Analysis of Sogatella furcifera (Homoptera: Delphacidae) in Response to Sulfoxaflor and Functional Verification of Resistance-Related P450 Genes.

ABSTRACT: The white-back planthopper (WBPH), Sogatella furcifera, is a major rice pest in China and in some other rice-growing countries of Asia. The extensive use of pesticides has resulted in severe resistance of S. furcifera to variety of chemical insecticides. Sulfoxaflor is a new diamide insecticide that acts on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in insects. The aim of this study was to explore the key genes related to the development of resistance to sulfoxaflor in S. furcifera and to verify their functions. Transcriptomes were compared between white-back planthoppers from a susceptible laboratory strain (Sus-Lab) and Sus-Lab screened with the sublethal LC₂₅ dose of sulfoxaflor for six generations (SF-Sel). Two P450 genes (CYP6FD1 and CYP4FD2</
