Abstract:
The key mutations, such as the Gly-4891-Glu substitution and the Ile-4734 multiple substitutions within the ryanodine receptors (RyR), are linked to diamide resistance in fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda. In this study, we found that FAW remained sensitive to cyantraniliprole and chlorantraniliprole, while its sensitivity to flubendiamide was reduced. Moreover, a low level of heterozygous mutation at I4743 was observed. To facilitate the detection procedure of these mutations, a simple and efficient loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) protocol was developed for operation. The reaction for detecting the G4891E and I4743 single or multiple mutations was carried out at 68 °C for 85 min and 68 °C for 85 min or 68 °C for 65 min, respectively. These LAMP reactions can be easily observed via visualization of the color change from pink to yellow. This assay provides a simple, convenient, and effective means of detecting mutations in the RyR of FAW for pest management purposes.
