Cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is a polyphagous lepidopteran pest distributed worldwide with a broad spectrum of host plants. However, the mechanism of H. armigera adaptation to various insecticides and defensive allelochemicals in its host plants is not fully understood. Therefore, this study examined the influence of consumption of plant allelochemicals on larval tolerance to methomyl and chlorpyrifos insecticides in H. armigera and its possible mechanism. Twelve plant allelochemicals were screened to evaluate their effects on larval sensitivity to methomyl. Of which flavone, coumarin, DIMBOA (2,4-Dihydroxy-7-methoxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one) and visnagin significantly reduced larval sensitivity to methomyl. Application of cytochrome P450 inhibitor piperonyl butoxide (PBO) significantly increased the mortality of methomyl-treated larvae. In contrast, PBO addition significantly decreased the mortality of chlorpyrifos-treated larvae. Moreover, allelochemical consumption enhanced the activities of glutathione S-transferase, carboxylesterase, cytochrome P450 and acetylcholinesterase in the midgut and fat body. The qRT-PCR analysis confirms that P450 genes, CYP6B2, CYP6B6 and CYP6B7 were induced by the four allelochemicals in the midguts and the fat bodies. In conclusion, the generalist H. armigera can take benefit of plant allelochemicals from its host plants to elaborate its defense against insecticides.
