2 Program Objectives Identify insecticide/ miticide resistance genes from target pests Population genetic analyses of resistance for each gene of interest for each target pest Develop a rapid (and ultimately inexpensive) diagnostic tool for identification of resistance for target pests Use this information to make IPM decisions and recommendations to growers (sustainable & economical)
3 Pyrethroid Resistance in Onion Thrips
4 Wu, M., H. Gotoh, T. Waters, D. B Walsh, L. C. Lavine Identification of an alternative Knockdown Resistance kdr-like mutation, M918L, and a novel mutation, V1010A, in the Thrips tabaci voltage-gated sodium channel gene. Pest Management Sci. DOI: /ps.3638 Dose responses of Thrips tabaci populations from Washington State onion fields to lambdacyhalothrin. Conc. g/liter lambda-cyhalothrin
5 Partial nucleotide sequence chromatograms of the two mutation sites (M918L and V1010A) of the voltage-sensitive sodium channel subunit gdna from Thrips tabaci strain.
6 We identified two single nucleotide substitutions the T. tabaci voltage-gated sodium channel gene. One mutation resulted in the nonsynonymous substitution of methionine with leucine (M918L), which is well known to be responsible for super knockdown resistance in some pest species. Another non-synonymous substitution, a valine (GTT) to alanine (GCT) replacement at amino acid 1010 (V1010A) was identified in our study and was associated with lambdacyhalothrin resistance. All populations of T. tabaci Collected Washington State onion fields had these mutations. 100% resistance
7 Lygus bug objectives To investigate the toxicity of bifenthrin to L. hesperus in the field 2. To understand the mechanisms of bifenthrin resistance at the genetic level in these same L. hesperus field populations by characterizing: a) genetic mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel (a known target for pyrethroid insecticides) b) The role of metabolic detoxification genes (such as cytochrome P450s or ABC transporters) in L. hesperus resistance to pyrethroids.
8 MATERIALS AND METHODS Insect Sampling and Collection 2013 L. hesperus were collected from: a)alfalfa forage field b)alfalfa seed field c)mustards in orchards and along roadsides
9 MATERIALS AND METHODS Sampling location A. Prosser B. Touchet C. Othello D. Yakima E. Lowden F. Prosser G.Grandview H. Gardena I. Wapato
10 MATERIALS AND METHODS Intensive Sampling Lygus bugs were collected with a sweep net from the upper part of alfalfa plants Lygus bugs were aspirated from the sweep net collection and placed in a container with green bean pods (Phaseolus vulgaris L) for transport back to the lab in Prosser. Lygus bugs were then bioassayed with bifenthrin and then preserved for molecular work in Pullman in Fall 2013 & winter 2014
11 MATERIALS AND METHODS Toxicological Bioassays Adults of L. hesperus from each location were tested for resistance to insecticides bifenthrin (pyrethroid) by using a Potter Spraying Tower Five concentrations plus control was tested and each test was replicated three times. Each replicate consisted of 10 adults of L. hesperus. Mortality was quantified after 3, 24, and 48 hours after treatment (HAT)

14 These objectives are now being worked on-- 1. To understand the mechanisms of bifenthrin resistance at the genetic level in L. hesperus field populations by characterizing: a) genetic mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel- We have not found any mutations like we did with thrips b) The role of metabolic detoxification genes (such as cytochrome P450s or ABC transporters) in L. hesperus resistance to pyrethroids. We re going that way now.
15 Metabolic Resistance Role of ABC transporters in resistance Tolerant L. hesperus Bifenthrin plasma membrane intracellular ABC ATP ADP Susceptible L. hesperus Bifenthrin plasma membrane ABC intracellular
16 Metabolic Resistance Target genes of ABC transporters in our studies are MDR genes 5, 6, 7, and 8 and ABCT genes 4 and 5
17 Normalized Fold Expression The result of q-pcr indicates that some ABC transporters in resistant populations may show significantly different expression compared to the control (susceptible) population, most notably in MDR6 and MDR8 * * * * * * Metabolic Resistance * * * ABCB4 ABCB5 MDR5 MDR6 MDR7 MDR8 Target * * * O S T L OB Y Gv W The gene expression levels (relative to susceptible population) of six ABC transporters in L. hesperus populations: susceptible (S), RR50 =3 Othello (O), RR50 =5 Touchet (T), RR50 =3 Yakima (Y), RR50 =3 Lowden (L), RR50 = 1 Olsen Bros (OB), RR50 =3 Grandview (GV), and RR50 =3 Wapato (W).
18 Conclusions Almost all of the field population of L. hesperus collected from fields of alfalfa grown for seed in central Washington show increased levels of bifenthrin resistance ABC transporters in resistant populations show significantly different expression compared to the control (susceptible) population. Stay tuned for our results involving the voltagegated sodium channel genes.
19 Acaricide Resistance Spider Mites The two-spotted spider mite is the arthropod pest with the greatest documented number of resistance events worldwide. Genomics/transcriptomic resources are available
20 Leaf Disc Bioassay Transferred ten adult female mites to leaf discs placed on top of soaked cotton Exposed to 2 ml of varying concentration of candidate acaricides. Mites are held at 24C for 24 hrs, and evaluated for mortality
21 Results: Dose response curves of susceptible colony Abamectin Bifenazate
22 We have tested selected field populations of spider mites from a representative sample of hop yards and compare their dose response curves to susceptible. Twelve populations from hops, two from wine grapes, and one from potato in 2013.
23 In 2013, 13 T. urticae populations from hopyards were tested for abamectin resistance, and 12 of these 13 populations were tested for bifenazate resistance within 72 hr of collection. abamectin doses ranged from mg a.i./l, bifenazate doses ranged from mg a.i./l. Resistance ratios (RR) were estimated at the LC50 level as RR= LC50 of field strains/ LC50 of susceptible strains calculated in Objective f. Resistance ratios among hopyard-collected mites to abamectin were calculated to be between 1.29 and 107. The resistance ratio among hopyard collected mites to bifenazate was calculated to be between
24 We are developing discriminating doses of candidate miticides that can be used to rapidly identify the prevalence of tolerance or resistance in a spider mite population to the candidate miticides. The discriminating dose we developed for bifenazate was 224 mg a.i./l (this is 1/4 the concentration of the field rate), And the discriminating dose we developed for abamectin was 22.5 mg a.i./l (this is the full field rate).

Abamectin 2 SNPs in Glutamate gate channel 1&3 3. Bifenazate 4 SNPs in Cytochrome b Field samples pesticides This single mutation is linked to the populations of mites from Washington hopyards with the greatest levels of resistance to bifenazate
31 Abamectin Resistance ABC transporters are transmembrane proteins that utilize the energy of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) hydrolysis to translocate toxins across membranes pesticide extracellular plasma membrane intercellular ATP ADP
32 Increases in the titer of ABC transporters in the mite population over the course of the season is making them more tolerant to many toxins including abamectin.
