ABSTRACT
Diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella is a serious pest of cruciferous vegetables and causes substantial economic loss all over the world. This study was undertaken to decipher the molecular mechanisms involved in the field evolved insecticide resistance in P. xylostella upon exposure to spinosad. To do so, spinosad-resistant and susceptible larval populations were subjected to transcriptome analysis using Illumina paired-end sequencing. De novo assembly was generated from raw reads of both the samples which resulted in the identification of 41,205 unigenes. Functional annotation and digital gene expression analysis were carried out to determine the differentially expressed genes. 1,348 unigenes were found to have a significant differential expression in the resistant population. Several genes involved in insecticide resistance like CYP P450, GSTs, small heat shock protein, and UDP glycosyltransferase were found to be up-regulated while genes related to mitochondrial energy metabolism and cuticular processes were down-regulated. Further, gene mining and phylogenetic analysis of two important gene families namely, CYP and GSTs were performed and the results revealed that these genes could play a major role in the development of field evolved spinosad resistance in P. xylostella by gene duplication and differential gene expression.
