BACKGROUNDMany insect cytochrome P450 proteins (CYPs) are involved in the metabolic detoxification of exogenous compounds such as plant toxins and insecticides.Tribolium castaneum, the red flour beetle, is a major agricultural pest that damages stored grains and cereal products. With the completion of the sequencing of its genome, twoT. castaneumspecies‐specific CYP genes,CYP4BN6, andCYP6BQ11, were identified. However, it is unknown whether the functions of most CYPs are shared byTcCYP4BN6andTcCYP6BQ11, and the upstream regulatory mechanism of these two CYPs remains elusive.RESULTSQRT‐PCR analysis indicated thatTcCYP4BN6andTcCYP6BQ11were both most highly expressed at the late pupal stage and were mainly observed in the head and gut, respectively, of adults. Moreover, the transcripts of these two CYPs were significantly induced by dichlorvos and carbofuran, and RNA interference (RNAi) targeting of each of them enhanced the susceptibility of beetles to these two insecticides. Intriguingly, knockdown of thelatrophilin(lph) gene, which has been reported to be related to the insecticide susceptibility, reduced the expression ofTcCYP4BN6andTcCYP6BQ11after insecticide treatment, suggesting that these two CYP genes are regulated bylphto participate in insecticide susceptibility inT. castaneum.CONCLUSIONThese results shed new light on the function and mechanism of CYP genes associated with insecticide susceptibility and could facilitate research on appropriate and sustainable pest control management. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry
