| The oriental fruit fly B.dorsalis was a worldwide pest that had caused dramatic financial losses to crops.The long-term applications of insecticide had led to different degrees of insecticide resistance even though chemical control has been regarded as an important management measure.Therefore,the management of B.dorsalis is becoming more and more challenging with the emerging insecticide resistance and it is an urgent task to find novel and effective methods to control B.dorsalis.Studies in this thesis were conducted on insecticide resistance of 5 trains B.dorsalis with different pupa colorations,transcriptome of 5 strains pupae,specific activities of Acetylcholinesterase(ACh E),glutathione S-transferases(GST)and cytochrome P450 in pupae and adults of 5 strains,quantities of nine candidate genes,quantities of three candidate genes in adults and midgut of B.dorsalis treated in 3 kinds of insecticides,specific activities of ACh E and GST in adults and midgut of B.dorsalis treated in 3 kinds of insecticides,and proved that there were relationship between pigmentations of pupae and adults insecticide resistance of B.dorsalis.Three genes were proved to be associated with pigmentation of B.dorsalis pupae and contributed to insecticide resistance of B.dorsalis adults and as follow: yellow gene MK529913 and MK529915 of dopachrome conversion enzyme(DDC),gene MK515144 of arylalkylamine-N-acetyltransferase(AANAT).These results could lead to better understanding on mechanism of B.dorsalis resistance against insecticide and provide new clues for pest control strategy.The brief of results were as follow:1 Comparison of the resistance of five strains to abamectin,beta-cypermethrin and trichlorfon.Insecticide resistance of 5 strains to abamectin,beta-cypermethrin and trichlorfon were meastrued using pesticide-membrane method.Results showed that regular pattern of resistances of 5 strains to abamectin was same to that of 5 strains to beta-cypermethrin as CZ > CB > CK > LC ≈ LX(high to low),while regular pattern of resistances of 5 strains to trichlorfon were roughly as CZ > LC > CK > LX ≈ CB(high to low).Strain CZ was a beta-cypermethrin-resistant strain with brown pupae coloration while Strain CK was a wild strain with brown pupae coloration.Strain CB was a pigmentation mutation strain with white pupae coloration.Strain LC was the female of pigmentation sex genetic strain whose pupae coloration was white.Strain LX was the male of pigmentation sex genetic strain whose pupae coloration was brown.2 Transcriptome of B.dorsalis pupae.Basing on the transcriptome of pupae of 5 strains,studies were conducted on the relationships of 5 strains genes,functions distributions of genes associated with pigmentation,functions distributions of genes associated with detoxification and functions distributions of genes up-regulated or down-regulated,showed that the gene expression model of strain CK was similar to gene expression model of strain CB(spearman correlation coefficients 0.85)while strain LC was similar to strain LX(spearman correlation coefficients 0.86),and revealed that genes associated with pigmentation and detoxification were involved in some biological process,such as “Amino acid metabolism”and “Xenobiotics biodegradation and metabolism”.Results in this part revealed that there were relationship between pigmentations of pupae and adult insecticide resistance of B.dorsalis preliminarily,and proved that the differences of insecticide resistance of 5 trains were mostly distributed in “Amino acid metabolism” and “Xenobiotics biodegradation and metabolism”.Besides,nine candidate genes were indentified for subsequent studies and were as follow: four yellow genes of dopachrome conversion enzyme family(MK529912,MK529913,MK529914,MK529915),AANAT gene MK515144 of arylalkylamine-N-acetyltransferase,gene MK515141 of dopa decarboxylase(DDC),gene MK515140 of Phenoloxidase(PO),laccase2 gene MK515143 of Phenoloxidase and P450 gene MK515142.3 Specific activities of ACh E,GST and P450 in pupae and adults of 5 strains.Studies were conducted on specific activities of ACh E,GST and P450 in pupae and adults of 5 strains.Results and conclusions of these studies were includes three parts and were as following:(1)Results showed that specific activities of ACh E in adults of strain LC and strain LX were 55.44 μg/mgprot and 309.75 μg/mgprot respectively,lower than specific activities of ACh E in other three strains respectively,specific activities of ACh E in pupae with white coloration were higher than that of ACh E in pupae with brown coloration,such as specific activity of ACh E in strain CB was highest as 335.84 μg/mgprot,proved that ACh E could contribute to insecticide resistance of B.dorsalis,and indicated that white pigmentation might contribute to insecticide resistance of B.dorsalis.(2)Results showed that specific activities of GST in pupae of strain CB and strain LC were 167.94μmol/min/mg protein and 290.86 μmol/min/mg protein respectively,higher than that in pupae of strain CK and strain LC,specific activities of GST in adults of strain CB and strain LC were 145.98 μmol/min/mg protein and 185.35 μmol/min/mg protein respectively,higher than that in adults of strain CK and LX,specific activity of GST in adults of strain CZ was 224.01 μmol/min/mg protein,higher than that in adults of other four strains,proved that GST could contribute to insecticide resistance of B.dorsalis,and indicated that white pigmentation might contribute to insecticide resistance of B.dorsalis.(3)Results showed that relative activities of P450 in adults of strain LC were 3.14 pmol/min/mg,significantly higher than that in adults of other four strains,but insecticide resistance of strain LC to abamectin and beta-cypermethrin had been proved to be lower than strain CK,strain CZ and strain CB,indicated that there were other factors besides of P450 that could promote the insecticide resistance of B.dorsalis.4 Quantifications of nine candidate genes in pupae and adults of 5 strains.According to the results of analysis of transcriptome of B.dorsalis,the functions of nine candidate genes had been understood preliminarily.In purpose of speculating the functions of these nine candidate genes,studies were conducted on the quantifications of nine candidate genes in pupae and adults of 5 strains,showed that eight candidate genes could contribute to insecticide resistance of B.dorsalis to abamectin and beta-cypermethri and were as follow: four yellow genes of
