中文摘要:
      【目的】草地贪夜蛾Spodoptera frugiperda是一种繁殖能力强、危害范围广的重要农业害虫,且已对多种杀虫剂产生了抗性,亟需开发新型绿色防控技术。【方法】前期研究发现,过表达或抑制鳞翅目昆虫的miR-34-5p,可显著提高草地贪夜蛾等多种鳞翅目害虫的死亡率,为进一步评价miR-34-5p在害虫防治中的应用潜力,本研究构建了表达miR-34-5p的转基因玉米,草地贪夜蛾取食该玉米96 h后,草地贪夜蛾体内miR-34-5p的表达量上调了2.5倍,其靶标基因蜕皮激素受体SfEcR的表达量显著降低了45.5%。【结果】生物测定结果表明,与取食野生型玉米相比,取食转miR-34-5p玉米的草地贪夜蛾累积死亡率显著升高了25.0%~40.0%。同时,存活幼虫的生长发育严重受阻,繁殖力显著降低。【结论】本研究证实了基于昆虫miRNA的转基因作物对草地贪夜蛾具有良好的防治效果,为开发基于miRNA的绿色害虫防治策略提供了理论基础和技术支撑。
英文摘要:
      【Aim】The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, is a major agricultural pest with high reproductive potential and poses a significant threat to a wide range of crops. Currently, it has developed resistance to multiple insecticides. Therefore, alternative green control strategies are urgently needed.【Methods】Previous research revealed that overexpression or inhibition of microRNA, miR-34-5p, resulted in high mortality in multiple lepidopteran pests such as Spodoptera frugiperda. To further evaluate the potential application of miR-34-5p in pest control, we constructed genetically modified maize expressing miR-34-5p. After the fall armyworm fed on this maize for 96 hours, the expression level of miR-34-5p significantly increased by 2.5 fold, and the expression level of its target gene, the ecdysteroid receptor SfEcR, significantly decreased by 45.5%. 【Results】Bioassay results demonstrated that the cumulative mortality of S. frugiperda fed on miR-34-5p transgenic maize were significantly increased by 25.0%~40.0%, compared with that of larvae fed on wild-type maize. Surviving larvae exhibited significant developmental defects and low fecundity.【Conclusion】These results indicate that insect microRNA-based transgenic crops exhibit promising control efficacy against S. frugiperda, which provides a theoretical basis and technical support for the development of miRNA-based green pest control strategies.
