ABSTRACT: Analysis of Transcriptome Differences between Resistant and Susceptible Strains in the Citrus Red Mite Panonychus citri (McGregor) (Acari: Tetranychidae)
Project description:The citrus red mite, Panonychus citri, is a major pest on citrus all around the world. Mitochondrial Electron Transport Inhibitors of complex I (METI-I) acaricides such as fenpyroximate have been used extensively to control P. citri populations, which resulted in multiple reports of METI-I resistant populations in the field. In this study, gene expression profile differences between METI-I resistant P. citri populations (Lahijan, Ramsar and Sari) and a susceptible P. citri population (Rasht) from Iran were compared using Illumina RNAseq.
Project description:Total RNAs from the Citrus red mite at the embryo, larva, nymph and adult stages were used to construct small RNA libraries for Solexa sequencing. Several categories of sRNAs were identified, including 594 known microRNAs (miRNAs) grouped into 206 families and 31 novel miRNAs. In addition, according to bioinformatics analysis and S-Poly(T) miRNA assays, the expression level of many miRNAs varied among the developmental stages. Furthermore, the prediction of miRNAs target genes and their functional annotation indicated that miRNAs are involved in the regulation of multiple pathways in the Citrus red mite. The total RNAs from embryo, larva, nymph and adult stages of Panonychus citri were used to construct small RNA libraries for Solexa sequencing. The data from Solexa sequencer (Illumina) was compared to identify small RNAs in different stages of Panonychus citri.
Project description:We compared a miticides resistant strain and a susceptible strain's gene expression profile to reveal genes associated with miticide resistance in Panonychus citri.
Project description:We used this microarray data to survey the differentially expressed genes in sweet orange by comparing leaf tissues challenged with wild type X. citri ssp. citri (Xcc) strain 306 and leaf tissues challenged with pthA4 gene defeciency mutant Xcc306ΔpthA4at 6 h and 48 h post inoculation.The deletion of pthA4 gene reduced the virulence of Xcc306, and eliminated pustule formation. The citrus gene expression changes after inoculation of these two isogenic strains represent PthA4-mediated molecular events in a susceptible reaction.
