Transgenic rice expressingBacillus thuringiensis(Bt) Cry toxins are resistant to lepidopteran pests, such asChilo suppressalis, a major insect pest of rice in Asia. Understanding how these toxins interact with their hosts is crucial to understanding their insecticidal action. In this study, knockdown of two aminopeptidase N genes (APN1 and APN2) by RNA interference resulted in decreased susceptibility ofC. suppressalislarvae to the Bt rice varieties TT51 (Cry1AbandCry1Acfusion genes) and T1C-19 (Cry1Ca), but not T2A-1 (Cry2Aa). This suggests that APN1 and APN2 are receptors for Cry1A and Cry1C toxins inC. suppressalis.
