Functional analysis of four upregulated carboxylesterase genes associated with fenpropathrin resistance in Tetranychus cinnabarinus (Boisduval)
6 Jun 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Carboxylesterases (CarEs) are important in pesticide resistance. Four overexpressed CarE genes with inducible character were screened out in fenpropathrin-resistant Tetranychus cinnabarinus, but their functional roles remained to be further analyzed by RNAi and protein expression. RESULTS: Feeding a single double-stranded (ds)RNA of each of four genes led to gene-specific downregulation of mRNA,...
