Strong resistance to β-cyfluthrin in a strain of the beetle Alphitobius diaperinus: a de novo transcriptome analysis.

Résumé

The lesser mealworm, Alphitobius diaperinus, is an invasive tenebrionid beetle and a vector of pathogens. Due to the emergence of insecticide resistance and consequent outbreaks that generate significant phytosanitary and energy costs for poultry farmers, it has become a major insect pest worldwide. To better understand the molecular mechanisms behind this resistance, we studied a strain of A. diaperinus from a poultry house in Brittany that was found to be highly resistant to the β‐cyfluthrin. The strain survived β‐cyfluthrin exposures corresponding to more than 100 times the recommended dose. We used a comparative de novo RNA‐Seq approach to explore genes expression in resistant versus sensitive strains. Our de novo transcriptomic analyses showed that responses to β‐cyfluthrin likely involved a whole set of resistance mechanisms. Genes related to detoxification, metabolic resistance, cuticular hydrocarbon biosynthesis and proteolysis were found to be constitutively overexpressed in the resistant compared to the sensitive strain. Follow‐up enzymatic assays confirmed that the resistant strain exhibited high basal activities for detoxification enzymes such as cytochrome P450 monooxygenase and glutathione‐S‐transferase. The in‐depth analysis of differentially expressed genes suggests the involvement of complex regulation of signaling pathways. Detailed knowledge of these resistance mechanisms is essential for the establishment of effective pest control.
