Abstract
AbstractAphelenchoides besseyi could cause great yield losses of rice and many economically important crops. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors were commonly used to manage plant-parasitic nematodes. However, nematodes resistant to AChE inhibitors have been increasingly reported due to the extensive use of these chemicals. The current study was aimed to establish the correlation between fenamiphos (an AChE-inhibitor) sensitivities and acetylcholinesterase genes (ace) by analyzing two isolates of A. besseyi (designated Rl and HSF), which displayed differential sensitivities to fenamiphos. The concentrations of fenamiphos that led to the death of 50% (LD50) of Rl and HSF were 572.2 ppm and 129.4 ppm, respectively. Three ace genes were cloned from A. besseyi and sequenced. Sequence searching and phylogenic analyses revealed that AChEs of R1 and HSF shared strong similarities with those of various vertebrate and invertebrate species. Molecular docking analysis indicated that AChEs-HSF had much higher affinities to fenamiphos than AChEs-R1. Quantitative reverse transcriptase-PCR analyses revealed that expression of three ace genes were downregulated in HSF but were upregulated in Rl after exposure to 100 ppm fenamiphos for 12 h. The results indicated that the expression of the ace genes was modulated in response to fenamiphos in different nematode strains. An increased expression of the ace genes might contribute to fenamiphos-insensitivity as seen in the Rl isolate.
