Acetamiprid Resistance in the Green Peach Aphid Myzus persicae (Sulzer) (Hemiptera: Aphididae): Selection, Cross-Resistance, Biochemical and Molecular Resistance Mechanisms

Myzus persicae (Sulzer) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is a polyphagous pest that causes significant losses in many crops. In the present study, biochemical and molecular mechanism of acetamiprid resistance laboratory-selected population which ratios reached 57.5-fold were investigated. This study was conducted Isparta University Applied Sciences, Agriculture Faculty, Department Plant Protection 2018 2020. Synergism, assays showed absence increased P450 activity selected population. addition, no point mutation nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR), target-site neonicotinoids including acetamiprid, detected These results suggests high level might be developed via mechanisms other than well-known mechanisms, such as mutations. The with decreased susceptibility to imidacloprid, sulfaxaflor, beta-cyfluthrin, tau-fluvanite ranging from 1.54 4.76. Nonetheless, more studies are needed support cross-resistance by populations having different genetic backgrounds.
