Four MicroRNAs, miR-13b-3p, miR-278-5p, miR-10483-5p, and miR-10485-5p, Mediate Insecticide Tolerance in Spodoptera frugiperda.

ABSTRACT: Spodoptera frugiperda is the world's major agricultural pest and has the distinctive features of high fecundity, strong migratory capacity, and high resistance to most insecticides. At present, the control of S. frugiperda in China relies mainly on the spraying of chemical insecticides. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small, single-stranded, non-coding RNAs and play crucial regulatory roles in various physiological processes, including the insecticide resistance in insects. However, little is known about the regulatory roles of miRNAs on the resistance of S. frugiperda to insecticides. In the present research, the miRNAs that were differentially expressed after cyantraniliprole, spinetoram, and emamectin benzoate treatment were analyzed by RNA-Seq. A total of 504 miR
