Population genomics provides insights into lineage divergence and local adaptation within the cotton bollworm

Jianpeng Zhang et al.

Summary: In this study, a high-quality chromosome-level reference genome of the cotton bollworm Helicoverpa armigera was assembled, and a novel lineage in northwestern China was identified. The study revealed the relationship between the evolutionary adaptation of the cotton bollworm and global temperature fluctuation, and identified genes related to climate adaptation, feeding behavior, and insecticide tolerance.

Summary: Spodoptera frugiperda populations in Australia show decreased sensitivity to insecticides, especially in Group 1 and synthetic pyrethroids. Emamectin benzoate, chlorantraniliprole, and spinetoram are the most effective insecticides against the pest.

Genetic studies of fall armyworm indicate a new introduction into Africa and identify limits to its migratory behavior

Rodney N. Nagoshi et al.

Summary: This article investigates the invasion history and genetic composition of fall armyworm in Africa, and finds that the natural migration of the pest is more limited than expected, with a high risk of future introductions in West Africa.

Summary: By investigating the genetic structure and diversity of the fall armyworm populations in China, this study revealed the invasion pathways and characteristics of the pest, and found lower genetic diversity in China compared to South America. Furthermore, it identified genetic differentiation among populations and distinct genetic structures between populations.

Global population genomic signature of Spodoptera frugiperda (fall armyworm) supports complex introduction events across the Old World

Wee Tek Tay et al.

Summary: This population genomics study uncovers the complex multiple introduction history of the fall armyworm from the Americas to Africa and Asia, providing insights into the directionality of gene flow and the extent of genomic exchange. The study highlights the potential of international partnership and population genomic approaches in addressing global emerging pest threats and biosecurity challenges. The study also challenges the previous hypothesis of west-to-east spread, instead finding evidence of directional gene flow from the East to eastern Africa.

Genomic and transcriptomic analysis unveils population evolution and development of pesticide resistance in fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda

Furong Gui et al.

Summary: This study focused on the genetic background and pesticide resistance of the fall armyworm (FAW) in China. The results showed that FAWs invaded into China were most likely originated from Africa and had significant genetic differentiation from American populations. Furthermore, specific detoxification genes in FAWs responded to different pesticides.

Whole-genome sequencing to detect mutations associated with resistance to insecticides and Bt proteins inSpodoptera frugiperda

Fang Guan et al.

Summary: The study identified three amino acid substitutions in the ace-1 gene of S. frugiperda associated with organophosphate resistance, with the Brazilian population having all three mutations and the 227A allele being the most common. Populations from China, Malawi, and Uganda carried two of the three ace-1 mutations, with the 290V allele as the dominant allele.

Detection of ryanodine receptor target-site mutations in diamide insecticide-resistant Spodoptera frugiperda in China

Sheng-Lan Lv et al.

Summary: The study investigated resistance levels to chlorantraniliprole and tetrachloropyramid in 13 populations of Spodoptera frugiperda in China. Results showed low resistance levels to diamide insecticides in China, and differences in relative resistance among populations were not caused by mutations in RyR or its expression.

Whole genome comparisons reveal panmixia among fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) from diverse locations

Katrina A. Schlum et al.

Summary: This study surveyed the population structure and genetic diversity of 55 S. frugiperda samples from Argentina, Brazil, Kenya, Puerto Rico, and the USA. The findings suggest a panmictic S. frugiperda population with minor reduction in gene flow between overwintering populations in the USA, corresponding to different host strains at the mitochondrial level. The research provides foundational information on gene flow among S. frugiperda populations and validates the experimental use of laboratory strains for host strain differentiation based on genetic markers.

Geographic Monitoring of Insecticide Resistance Mutations in Native and Invasive Populations of the Fall Armyworm

Sudeeptha Yainna et al.

Summary: This study investigated the resistance of fall armyworm populations to Bt and synthetic insecticides in different geographic areas, finding that resistance mutations were more widespread in invasive populations, resulting in susceptibility to Bt insecticides and resistance to synthetic insecticides in Chinese populations. This highlights the importance of monitoring insecticide resistance in invasive populations using genomic approaches and bioassay experiments.

Preliminary characterisation of known pesticide resistance alleles in Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in its invasive Australian range

Duong T. Nguyen et al.

Summary: The fall armyworm has been detected in Australia, leading to the development of a real-time PCR diagnostic assay for identifying the species and detecting mutations related to insecticide resistance. Common mutations associated with carbamate and organophosphate resistance were found in the populations tested, suggesting that the original migrated moths may have carried these mutations from outside Australia. Monitoring the resistance status of Australian fall armyworm is important, as well as considering pesticide resistance in pest management decisions.

Baseline Susceptibility of Spodoptera frugiperda Populations Collected in India towards Different Chemical Classes of Insecticides

Mahesh Kulye et al.

Summary: Fall armyworm (FAW) is a highly destructive moth pest that poses a major threat to maize production in India. Control measures rely on chemical insecticides and transgenic crop plants, but FAW has developed resistance to insecticides. Evaluating its susceptibility to different chemical classes of insecticides is crucial for effective management strategies.
