Energy homeostasis is an essential characteristic of all organisms, requiring fluctuation in energy accumulation, mobilization, and exchange with the external environment. In insects, energy mobilization is under control of the lipase brummer (bmm), which regulates nutritional status by hydrolyzing the ester bonds in triacylglycerol (TAG). In the present study, we investigated the role of bmm in the lipid mobilization and starvation resistance in the brown planthopper (BPH;Nilaparvata lugens), which is economically one of the most important rice pests in Asia. A severe decrease in TAG and glyceride contents was observed in the starved BPHs, while there was a partial rescue after refeeding. The starvation condition caused a significant increase in the expression levels ofNlbmm, and supplement of food after starvation dramatically reduced theNlbmmexpression. Sucrose rescue after starvation significantly suppressed the expression ofNlbmm, while caused an accumulation of TAG and glyceride. Knockdown ofNlbmmby double‐stranded RNA treatment extended the lifespan to starvation, whereas it increased the level of TAG and glyceride in the BPHs. The decreased lipolysis rate by dsNlbmm‐treated BPHs eventually resulted in increase of starvation resistance. These data demonstrated that the regulation of energy homeostasis byNlbmmaffects starvation resistance, probably through lipid mobilization control inN. lugens.
