ABSTRACT

19

The dusky cotton bug, Oxycarenus hyalinipennis (Costa) (Hemiptera: Lygaeidae) is a serious

20

pest of cotton and damages cotton seed by reducing the oil content. In Pakistan, O. hyalinipennis

21

is managed by using various insecticides and has developed resistance to several insecticides. In

22

this study, O. hyalinipennis was selected with bifenthrin for 12 generations (G1 to G12) and

23

developed a 55.64-fold resistance when compared with an unselected population (Unsel Pop).

24

Bifenthrin resistance declined from 55.64 to 24.93-fold when selected population was removed

25

from bifenthrin selection pressure for four generations (G13 to G16). Bifenthrin selected (Bifen-

26

Sel) population showed a very low cross-resistance to profenofos (2.82-fold), deltamethrin (2.35-

27

fold) and acetamiprid (2.21-fold) when compared with a field population (Field Pop). The

28

bifenthrin resistance was incomplelety dominanat and autosomal. The relative fitness (Rf) of

29

Bifen-Sel population was 0.58 along with significant decreases in average nymphal survival,

30

fecundity, egg hatchability, intrinsic rate of population increase (rm), net reproductive rate (Ro)

1

31

and biotic potential (Bp). The Rf of Cross1 and Cross2 was 1.07 and 1.22, respectively. The high

32

fitness costs, instable resistance and a very low cross-resistance with other insecticides might be

33

useful in slowing down the evolution of bifenthrin resistance by implementing an insecticide

34

rotation plan.

1. Introduction

46

Dusky cotton bug Oxycarenus hyalinipennis (Costa) (Hemiptera: Lygaeidae) is a sucking

47

pest of cotton in Pakistan (Jaleel et al., 2014) and commonly referred as the cotton seed bug or

48

cotton stainer bug (Schaefer and Panizzi, 2000). Geographically, O. hyalinipennis is distributed

49

in Asia, Africa, Europe, Central America, the Middle East, South America and the Caribbean

50

(Halbert and Dobbs, 2010). Adult females of O. hyalinipennis lay eggs in cotton lint when bolls

51

open (Kirkpatrick, 1923). Both nymphs and adults of O. hyalinipennis feed on the seeds and suck

52

oil; excessive feeding reduces the seed weight and oil content (Schaefer and Panizzi, 2000). The

53

staining of cotton occurs during picking, and also due to crushing of bugs and their excrement in

54

ginning factories. The fiber becomes dirty due to cast skin and dead insect bodies and may

55

produce an unpleasant smell which ultimately reduces lint quality and market value (Kirkpatrick,

56

1923).

57

Insecticides are the main tools to manage O. hyalinipennis in cotton (Ullah et al., 2015).

58

Insecticides from different chemical groups such as organophosphates, pyrethroids, and

59

neonicotinoids are sprayed in Pakistan multiple times (about 8-10) in the cotton fields during the

60

season (Saeed et al., 2018). As a result of frequent insecticide applications, insecticide resistance

61

has developed in field populations of O. hyalinipennis against various insecticides (Ullah et al.,

62

2015). Studies on insecticide resistance are crucial to know the severity of resistance and to

63

devise suitable pest resistance management strategies. Bifenthrin has been commonly used for

64

both sucking and chewing pests of cotton since 1986 (Ali, 2018). However, the excessive use of

65

this insecticide has resulted in development of resistance in american bollworm Helicoverpa

66

armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) (Ahmad et al., 1997), spotted bollworm Earias

67

vittella (Fab.) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) (Ahmad and Arif, 2009; Jan et al., 2015), cotton

68

mealybug Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley (Homoptera: Pseudococcidae) (Saddiq et al., 2014),

69

O. hyalinipennis (Ullah et al., 2015) and cotton jassid Amrasca devastans (Dist.) (Homoptera:

70

Cicadellidae) (Abbas et al., 2018). Moreover, a few studies have reported on bifenthrin

71

resistance in laboratory-selected populations of P. solenopsis (Mansoor et al., 2016) and O.

72

hyalinipennis (Bilal et al., 2018).

73

In resistant genotypes, fitness costs associated with development of resistance are crucial

74

to study as they provide better insight into evolution of insecticide resistance (Gassmann et al.,

75

2009). The biological fitness of resistant population measured in terms of insect survival, 3

76

developmental times, fecundity and net reproductive rates is often reduced following continuous

77

laboratory selection as compared to its counterpart population in the absence of pesticides, hence

78

can be exploited to slow the pace of resistance (Roush and McKenzie, 1987). Fitness costs of

79

pyrethroid resistance have been explored previously against deltamethrin resistance in P.

80

solenopsis (Saddiq et al., 2016a) and Heliothis virescens Fabricius (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

81

(Sayyed et al., 2008), and lambda-cyhalothrin resistance in M. domestica (Abbas et al, 2016).

82

Previously, an O. hyalinipennis population was selected with bifenthrin to characterize activities

83

of different detoxificatin enzymes and to evaluate cross-resistance to profenofos, chlorpyrifos,

84

lambda-cyhalothrin, imidacloprid and chlorfenapyr when the selection was stopped (Bilal et al.,

85

2018). However, this study did not provide any information about fitness costs and genetics of

86

bifenthrin resistance. Morover, Bilal et al. (2018) did not study the cross-resistance spectrum to

87

profenofos, deltamethrin and acetamiprid at different selected generations.

88

In this study, we selected field collected O. hyalinipennis with bifenthrin in the laboratory

89

with the aim to verify its resistance development and also to explore cross-resistance possibilities

90

with some other insecticides by conducting bioassays at different generations of O. hyalinipennis

91

during the selection process. The resistant strain was also removed from bifenthrin selection

92

pressure for several generations to determine its impact on resistance stability. We further

93

investigated whether bifenthrin resistance was inherited by sex-linked or autosomal genes and

94

also its extent of dominance. Fitness traits linked with bifenthrin resistance in the resistant and

95

unselected populations of O. hyalinipennis and also in the progeny of their reciprocal crosses

96

were also studied. This study can help with the implementation of insecticide resistance

97

management programs against O. hyalinipennis.

2 Material and methods 2.1. Collection and rearing of insects

101

About 1000 nymphs and adults of O. hyalinipennis were randomly collected from highly

102

infested cotton bolls in a cotton field of the Central Cotton Research Institute (CCRI), Multan

103

(30.19°N, 71.46°E), Pakistan. The field from where the population was collected was sprayed

104

annually about 4-5 times with organophosphate, pyrethroid and neonicotinoids to control O.

105

hyalinipennis (Personal communication with scientific officer). The infested cotton bolls were

106

shaken and insects were collected in plastic jars. After collection, both nymphs and adults were 4

107

separated in the laboratory by using aspirators to obtain a homogenous population to use in

108

bioassays. The population was kept in plastic jars (24 × 12 cm) that were covered with muslin

109

clothes under constant laboratory conditions at 27±2ºC temperature, 60 ± 5% relative humidity

110

and 14:10 L:D hours. Insects were reared on open cotton bolls along with fresh branches of

111

China rose Hibiscus rosasinensis L. as their leaves also provided moisture for the insects. Old

112

branches were replaced with fresh ones twice a week and cotton bolls were changed after every

113

month. The field collected insects were reared for one generation (Go) to eliminate inherent field

114

effects and to increase the population before conducting the bioassays.

115 116

2.2. Populations After acclimatizing the population to laboratory conditions, field collected insects (Field

117

Pop) were divided in two sub-populations; one sub-population was selected with varying

118

concentrations of bifenthrin for 12 generations and designated as “Bifen-Sel” population. The

119

second sub-population was reared parallel to Bifen-Sel population without any insecticide

120

treatment and was designated as “Unsel Pop”. Two reciprocal crosses were also established by

121

crossing the naïve adult insects: 15 males from Bifen-Sel and 15 females from Unsel Pop were

122

crossed to obtain Cross1 progeny and 15 females of Bifen-Sel with 15 males of Unsel Pop were

123

crossed to get Cross2 progeny. Male and female adults were identified by their shape of abdomen

124

i.e. truncate in female and round in male. Moreover, males are shorter in size than females

125

(Henry, 1983).

126

2.3. Insecticides

127

Commercially available formulations of insecticides were used for bioassays: bifenthrin

128

(Talstar® 10EC, FMC, Pakistan), deltamethrin (Decis Super® 10EC, Bayer Crop Sciences,

129

Pakistan), profenofos (Curacron® 500EC, Syngenta, Pakistan) and acetamiprid (Mospilon® 20

130

SP, Arysta Life Sciences, Pakistan).

131

2.4. Bioassays

132

Toxicity bioassays of different insecticides were performed by using the standard IRAC

133

008 leaf-dip method (IRAC, 2019). Two-to-three days old adults of O. hyalinipennis were used

134

in each bioassay. A stock solution (40 mL) was prepared for making five serial concentrations

135

and each concentration was tested in three replicates. Fresh leaves of H. rosasinensis were

136

dipped in each concentration for ten-seconds and air dried for 1-2 hours at room temperature

137

before the insect exposure. Dried leaves were kept in Petri-dishes (5 cm in diameter) on a

5

138

slightly moistened filter paper to prevent the leaves from desiccation. A total of thirty adults

139

(both males and females) were tested for each concentration, ten in each replicate. A total of 180

140

adult insects were used in a bioassay including the control. Insects in the control were allowed to

141

feed on leaves dipped in tap water only. Mortality was assessed after 48 and 72 hours. Adults

142

were considered dead when there was no coordinated movement after a slight touch with a camel

143

hair brush.

144

2.5. Selection protocol for bifenthrin resistance

145

A preliminary bioassay of bifenthrin was performed with the Field Pop to determine the

146

lethal concentrations (LCs) required for selection of O. hyalinipennis with bifenthrin, so that

147

sufficient survivors were left for the next generation. Adults (2-3 days old) were selected with

148

bifenthrin continuously with different lethal concentrations (LC5-LC80) of insecticide ranging

149

from 17-2865 ppm from G1 to G12 (Table 1). The leaf-dip method was used for the selection

150

bioassays by using fresh leaves of H. rosasinensis. For each selection, bifenthrin treated leaves

151

after air drying were kept in Petri-dishes and adults ranging from 160-532 (30-35 per Petri-dish)

152

were exposed. The treated population in Petri-dishes were placed under laboratory conditions at

153

27±2ºC temperature, 60±5% relative humidity and 14:10 h light:dark photoperiod (Ullah et al.,

154

2016). Mortality data were taken after 48 hours exposure to bifenthrin in each selection.

155

Survivors of each selection were reared to get the next progeny for subsequent selection and an

156

average survival of 74.75% was maintained during selections.

157

2.6. Cross-resistance in bifenthrin-selected population

158

The cross-resistance ratio (CRR) in bifenthrin-selected strains was evaluated with other

159

insecticides (mentioned in the insecticides section) as compared to the field population. It was

160

calculated as follows:

161 162

CRR = LC50 of insecticides in Bifen-Sel / LC50 of insecticides in Field Pop 2.7. Stability of bifenthrin resistance

163

The bifenthrin-selected population was reared unselected in the laboratory for four

164

generations from G13-G16 to determine the resistance stability against bifenthrin and some other

165

insecticides. The bioassays with different insecticides were performed at G16 and resistance

166

ratios of Bifen-Sel (G16) were calculated by comparing LC50 of insecticide in Bifen-Sel (G16)

167

with corresponding insecticide LC50 in Unsel Pop.

168

6

169

2.8. Degree of dominance The degree of dominance (DLC) of Bifen-Sel strain was calculated by using the formula

170 171

of Bourguet et al. (2000): = (

1

2 – Unsel Pop) / ( Bifen − Sel − Unsel Pop)

172

Where X is the log of LC50 of tested strain. DLC values vary from 0-1, DLC = 0 indicates

173

completely recessive, DLC = 1 indicates completely dominant nature of insecticide resistance;

174

while DLC 0.50 to <1 and >0<0.50 indicates incompletely dominant and incompletely recessive

175

resistance, respectively.

176

2.9. Procedure to study fitness cost parameters

177

To study the fitness components, a total of 90 newly emerged 3rd instars from Bifen-Sel,

178

Unsel, Cross1 (Bifen-Sel males × Unsel females) and Cross2 (Bifen-Sel females × Unsel males)

179

populations were randomly chosen as starting individuals. Insects from each population were

180

placed in separate plastic jars (14 × 9 cm) containing open cotton bolls and twigs of H.

181

rosasinensis for feeding. The experiment was performed under laboratory conditions as

182

mentioned above. The 90 insects from each population were subdivided into three replicates (30

183

insects each). The following parameters were recorded for each population: developmental

184

duration, survival rate, fecundity and egg hatchability. The fecundity was determined as number

185

of eggs laid by single female until female died and egg hatchability was measured as number of

186

nymphs hatched from eggs. The percent egg hatching was determined as number of nymphs

187

hatched/total eggs ×100 in each replicate. The eggs unable to hatch were considered as non-

188

viable.

189 190

The mean relative growth rate (MRGR) was determined by following formula (Radford, 1967): MRGR = [W2 (mg) – W1 (mg)] / T

191 192

In this equation, W2 and W1 are weights of 1st instar and 5th instar, respectively, and T is time

193

duration from 1st to 5th instar.

194

Net reproductive rate (Ro) was calculated according to Cao and Han (2006): Ro = Nn+1 / Nn

195 196 197 198

Where Nn is the starting generation insects while Nn+1 represents next generation offspring. The Birch (1948) formula was used to calculate intrinsic rate of population increase (rm) as follows: 7

rm = Ro / DT

199 200 201

Where Ro is net reproductive rate and DT is the developmental time from egg to adult. The biotic potential (Bp) was determined using the formula of Roush and Plapp (1982):

202

Bp = [Fecundity (F) / Developmental time ratio (DTr)]

203

Where fecundity (F) was measured as average number of eggs / female and DTr was estimated

204

as DT of tested population / DT of Unsel Pop

205 206 207

The following equation was used to find the relative fitness of resistant and hybrid strains as compared to unselected strain: Relative fitness (Rf) = Ro of Bifen-Sel or Cross1 or Cross2 / Ro of Unsel Pop

208 209

2.10. Data analysis Probit software (version 1.5) was used for analysis of toxicity data (Finney, 1971).

210

Different probit parameters such as LC50, 95% Fiducial limits (FLs), slope with standard errors

211

(SEs) and chi-square (χ2) of each tested insecticide were determined by probit analysis.

212

Statistically, two LC50 values were considered similar if their 95% FLs overlapped (Litchfield

213

and Wilcoxon, 1949). The resistance and cross-resistance ratios determined were categorized as

214

very high (>100), high (51-100), medium (21-50), low (11-20), very low (2-10) and no (<2)

215

resistance (Torres-Vila et al., 2002). The 95% confidence limits (CLs) of resistance and cross-

216

resistance ratios were also determined according to method of Robertson et al. (2007) and

217

considered significant if these did not include the value of 1. The life-history data of all

218

populations were analyzed by statistix software (version 8.1) to estimate relative fitness of tested

219

populations compared to Unsel Pop using completely randomized design. The mean values of

220

different life history data of each population were compared by Least Significant Difference

221

(LSD) test at 5% of significance level.

222 223

3. Results

224

3.1. Toxicities of different insecticides at field and unselected populations and resistance status

225

of field population of O. hyalinipennis

226

For Field Pop, toxicities of profenofos (LC50 = 94.03 ppm) and deltamethrin (LC50 =

227

59.65 ppm) were similar (95% FLs overlapped) but higher (95% FLs did not overlap) than that

228

of bifenthrin (LC50 = 504.2 ppm). Moreover, acetamiprid toxicity (LC50 = 13.6 ppm) was higher

229

(95% FLs did not overlap) than all other insecticides tested for Field Pop. All the insecticides 8

230

had higher toxicities (95% FLs did not overlap) to Unsel Pop than those for Field Pop. The

231

resistance ratios of Field Pop for profenofos, bifenthrin, deltamethrin and acetamiprid were 3.34-

232

, 4.97-, 2.96- and 2.48-fold, respectively, compared to Unsel Pop (Table 2).

233 234 235

3.2. Toxicity and resistance development to bifenthrin in O. hyalinipennis and resistance reversion The LC50s of Bifen-Sel at G3, G5, G7, G9 and G13 using bifenthrin were 890.25, 969.75,

236

1622.94, 4787.03, and 5649.18 ppm, respectively. The Bifen-Sel population of O. hyalinipennis

237

had resistance ratios of 1.77-, 1.92-, 3.21-, 9.49- and 11.20-fold against bifenthrin compared with

238

the Field Pop when tested at the above mentioned generations (Table 2). However, the selected

239

strains showed resistance ratios of 8.77-, 9.55-, 15.98-, 47.14- and 55.64-fold at G3, G5, G7, G9,

240

and G13, respectively, as compared to the Unsel Pop (Table 2). The Bifen-Sel (G13), after rearing

241

for four generations without exposure to bifenthrin, when tested using profenofos, bifenthrin,

242

deltamethrin, and acetamiprid at G16 exhibted resistance ratios of 5.44-, 24.93-, 3.86-, and 4.76-

243

fold, respectively as compared to Unsel Pop. However, toxicities of profenofos, bifenthrin,

244

deltamethrin, and acetamiprid were similar between Bifen-Sel (G16) and Bifen-Sel (G13) for each

245

of these four insecticides (95% FLS overlapped) (Table 2).

246

3.3. Pattern of cross-resistance to Bifen-Sel in O. hyalinipennis

247

The Bifen-Sel population of O. hyalinipennis was evaluated for cross-resistance to

248

profenofos, deltamethrin and acetamiprid at G3, G5, G7, G9, G11 and G13 compared with the Field

249

Pop. The Bifen-Sel population showed no to very low cross-resistance to profenofos (0.77-2.82-

250

fold), deltamethrin (0.85-2.35-fold) and acetamiprid (1.03-2.21-fold) as the selection progressed

251

from G1 to G12 (Table 3).

252

3.4. Resistance and degree of dominance of reciprocal populations

253

The Cross1 and Cross2 populations showed 5.39- and 9.42-fold resistance to bifenthrin,

254

respectively, in comparison to the Unsel Pop. The DLC values of bifenthrin resistance for Cross1

255

and Cross2 were 0.74 and 0.82, respectively indicating the incomplete dominant inheritance of

256

resistance. Moreover, toxicities of bifenthrin were similar (95% FLs overlapped) when tested

257

against both hybrid populations of O. hyalinipennis (Table 4).

258

259

3.5. Fitness parameters for Unsel, Bifen-Sel, Cross1 and Cross2 in O. hyalinipennis

260

3.5.1. Developmental durations

261

Mean development durations of different stages in Unsel, Bifen-Sel, Cross1 and Cross2

262

are summarized in Table 5. The developmental duration of eggs did not differ among all tested

263

populations. Developmental duration from 1st to 5th instar in Bifen-Sel was similar to Unsel Pop

264

but significantly higher in Cross1 and Cross2. The adult male longevity of Bifen-Sel, Cross1, and

265

Cross2 was similar to Unsel Pop but it was higher in Cross2 as compared to Cross1. The adult

266

female was significantly higher in Cross2 than that in the other three populations.

267

3.5.2. Survival rates

268

The survival rate of 1st and 2nd instars was significantly lower in Bifen-Sel but similar in

269

Cross1 and Cross2 as compared to Unsel Pop (Table 5). The survival rate of 3rd instar was

270

significantly lower in Bifen-Sel and Cross1 than that of Unsel Pop. No significant differences

271

were found in the survival of 4th and 5th instars in all tested populations. The average survival rate

272

from 1st to 5th instar was significantly lower in Bifen-Sel compared to the other three

273

populations.

274

3.5.3. Fecundity, egg hatchability, net reproductive rate (Ro), intrinsic rate of population

275

increase (rm) and relative fitness (Rf)

276

The Bifen-Sel females produced significantly lower number of eggs compared with the

277

Unsel Pop, Cross1 and Cross2. The Unsel pop had a significantly lower fecundity than Cross2 but

278

not than Cross1. The percent egg hatchability and net reproductive rate (Ro) in the Bifen-Sel

279

were significantly less when compared with the other three populations. The intrinsic rate of

280

population increase (rm) was significantly lower in Bifen-Sel compared to all other populations

281

which had similar rm. The relative fitness (Rf) of Bifen-Sel was significantly lower than that of

282

the other three populations. Cross1 had a similar Rf than Unsel Pop. Cross2 had a significantly

283

higher Rf than Unsel Pop (Table 6).

284

3.5.4. Biotic potential (Bp) and mean relative growth Rate (MRGR)

285

The Bp of Bifen-Sel was significantly lower in comparison with the Unsel Pop. However

286

hybrid populations showed similar Bp to Unsel Pop (F = 15.7; P = 0.0010; df = 3,8) (Fig 1). A

287

significantly higher MRGR was found in all the tested populations as compared to Unsel Pop (F

288

= 52.8; P<0.0001; df = 3,8) (Fig 1).

4. Discussion

291

In the current study, selection of O. hyalinipennis for 12 generations resulted in a

292

substantial increase in LC50 and resistance ratios to bifenthrin. The LC50 of bifenthrin in the Field

293

Pop at G1 was 504.2 ppm with very low resistance (4.97-fold) before selection in the laboratory.

294

However, when the same population was continuously selected until G12, the LC50 of bifenthrin

295

in Bifen-Sel population (G13) increased to 5649.18 ppm or 55.64-fold compared with the Unsel

296

Pop. Laboratory induced high to very high levels of resistance selections have been reported in

297

the house fly Musca domestica Linnaeus (Diptera: Muscidae) to beta-cypermethrin with 4420-

298

fold resistance after 25 selected generations compared with the susceptible strain (Zhang et al.,

299

2008), 474-fold resistance to cypermethrin in H. armigera over six selected generations

300

compared with the laboratory population (Achaleke and Brévault, 2010), 236-fold resistance to

301

deltamethrin in Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) after six selected generations

302

compared with the unselected population (Sayyed et al., 2005), and 54.32-fold and 178.42-fold

303

resistance to bifenthrin in P. solenopsis after 14 generations when compared with the field and

304

laboratory strains, respectively (Mansoor et al., 2016). The resistance levels selected under

305

laboratory conditions can be low or high depending upon the selection pressure, previous history

306

of exposure to insecticides, insect species, selection protocols, geographic origins of populations

307

and presence of susceptible and resistant genes.

308

In this study, the decline in bifenthrin resistance from 55.64-fold to 24.93-fold (about

309

55% decrease) after a few non-selected generations with the Bifen-Sel population suggested the

310

unstable nature of bifenthrin resistance in O. hyalinipennis. Similar to our results, reversion of

311

insecticide resistance has been reported previously in O. hyalinipennis after five unexposed

312

generations against chlorfenapyr (Ullah and Shad, 2017) and bifenthrin (Bilal et al., 2018).

313

Recovery of resistant populations towards susceptibility could be due to high fitness costs

314

associated with insecticide resistance (Gassmann et al., 2009) which are in agreement with the

315

present findings.

316

.The Bifen-Sel population of O. hyalinipennis did not show any cross-resistance to

317

profenofos and deltamethrin up to the fifth selected generation. However, as the selection

318

continued to the 12th generation, there was a slight increase (very low) in cross-resistance against

319

both profenofos (2.01-2.82-fold), and deltamethrin (2.00-2.35-fold) when bioassayed at G13.

320

Similarly, the Bifen-Sel population did not have any cross-resistance to acetamiprid until at G7 11

321

but a very low cross-resistance (2.35-, 2.11-, and 2.21-fold) was expressed at G9, G11, and G13.

322

Lack of and/or very low cross-resistance in the Bifen-Sel population against profenofos and

323

acetamiprid was expected as both of these insecticides have entirely different mode of actions

324

and belong to different chemical groups than bifenthrin. Profenofos is an organophosphorus

325

insecticide and is known to act as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor at synapse while

326

acetamiprid is neonicotinoid group insecticide and works as nicotinic acetylcholine receptor

327

(nAChR) competitive modulator. However, bifenthrin is a pyrethroid insecticide and targets the

328

axon of neuron as sodium channel modulator (IRAC, 2019). Unexpectedly, presence of very low

329

cross-resistance in the Bifen-Sel population of O. hyalinipennis against another pyrethroid

330

(deltamethrin) might be due to limited exposure of the pest population to deltamethrin in the

331

field and involvement of several resistance mechanisms. A deltamethrin-selected population

332

(4632.8-fold) of P. solenopsis had no cross-resistance to profenofos but a low level of cross-

333

resistance against lambda-cyhalothrin and acetamiprid (Afzal et al., 2018). Results of this study

334

are similar to Mansoor et al. (2016) who found negligible cross-resistance in a bifenthrin selected

335

population of P. solenopsis against buprofezin, chlorpyrifos and lambda-cyhalothrin.

336

Insect populations often experience a decline in biological fitness during the development

337

of resistance. These phenomena have been found in many insecticide resistance studies such as

338

in P. xylostella to Bacillus thuringiensis toxin Cry2Ad (Liao et al., 2019), brown planthopper

339

Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) to nitenpyram (Zhang et al., 2018), M.

340

domestica to spinosad (Khan, 2018), Spodoptera litura (Fab.) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) to

341

bistrifluron (Huang et al., 2019), fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith)

342

(Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) to Bt toxin Cry1A.105 (Niu et al., 2018), green peach aphid Myzus

343

persicae (Sulzer) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) to sulfoxaflor (Wang et al., 2018), H. armigera to

344

indoxacarb (Cui et al., 2018), western flower thrips Frankliniella occidentalis (Thysanoptera:

345

Thripidae) and maize armyworm Mythimna separata (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) to thiamethoxam

346

(Gao et al., 2014; Yasoob et al., 2018), and P. solenopsis to spirotetramat (Ejaz and Shad, 2017).

347

In this study, bifenthrin resistance development in the Bifen-Sel population resulted in declines

348

in nymphal survival, fecundity, egg hatchability, Ro, rm, and Rf (0.58) as compared with Unsel

349

Pop. These findings indicate that, if selection discontinued, the Bifen-Sel population might not

350

increase as rapidly as the Unsel Pop because of significant disadvantages in life history

351

parameters. These results also suggest the presence of a trade-off in distribution of energy 12

352

resources between costs in the form of fitness and mechanism(s) of resistance. Similar to these

353

results, lower relative fitness due to insecticide resistance has been reported in other insects

354

under different selection regimes such as in yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus)

355

(Diptera: Culicidae) (Jaramillo-O et al., 2014) and M. domestica (Abbas et al., 2016) to lambda-

356

cyhalothrin resistance; and P. solenopsis to deltamethrin resistance (Saddiq et al., 2016a).

357

Determination of fitness costs associated with resistance is important to study in

358

homozygous resistant individuals but also in heterozygotes that can act as a carrier of most

359

abundant resistant genes in early stages of resistance (Jia et al., 2009). Owing to this, fitness

360

costs of bifenthrin resistance were also estimated in two hybrid populations (Cross1 and Cross2)

361

of Bifen-Sel and Unsel Pop. The results showed that the Rf of Cross1 (1.07) and Cross2 (1.22)

362

were similar and both population progenies had superior fitness traits when compared with the

363

the parental Bifen-Sel. Moreover, in both hybrids, fitness recovery was significantly higher in

364

Cross2 compared with the Unsel Pop. The advantageous biological characteristics such as

365

survival, fecundity, egg hatchability, Ro and rm in reciprocal cross progenies compared to Bifen-

366

Sel population might be attributed to their increased vigor, or heterosis, which might have

367

resulted in longer inbreeding leading to the improvement of beneficial traits in heterozygous

368

progeny. Therefore, the study of life history parameters of both resistant and reciprocal

369

individuals is crucial and helpful in formulating resistance management strategies (Jia et al.,

370

2009).

371

The hybrid progenies with resistance ratios of 5.39-fold (Cross1) and 9.42-fold (Cross2)

372

were also used to determine inheritance characteristics associated with bifenthrin resistance. The

373

overlapping of FLs of LC50 values in both populations suggested that maternal effects were not

374

involved in bifenthrin resistance in O. hyalinipennis and it was autosomal. Moreover, DLC of

375

both populations was >0.50 and <1, which indicated that bifenthrin resistance was incompletely

376

dominant. Autosomal and incompletely dominant resistance have also been reported in many

377

insect pests (Sayyed et al., 2005; Achaleke and Brévault, 2010; Khan et al., 2015; Saddiq et al.

378

2016b; Ullah et al., 2016; Ijaz and Shad, 2018).

379

5. Conclusion and recommendations

380

The present findings showed that O. hyalinipennis has a high potential to develop

381

bifenthrin resistance following continuous selection pressure. The high resistance was also

382

reverted upon removal of selection pressure and no obvious cross-resistance occured with any 13

383

tested insecticide. Moreover, fitness costs were apparent in the resistant population. Bifenthrin

384

resistance inheritance appeared to be autosomal and incompletely dominant. The unstable

385

bifenthrin resistance indicated that evolution of resistance to bifenthrin may be minimized in O.

386

hyalinipennis if the insecticide is removed from a management program for a given duration. A

387

very weak cross-resistance, high fitness costs and incomplete dominance of bifenthrin resistance

388

suggests that these insecticides can be included in a rotation program to delay resistance

389

development. Recovery of fitness traits in hybrid populations also indicated that mixing the

390

selected (resistant) and unselected populations might suppress the resistance by diluting the

391

resistant genes.

Selection for 12 generations with bifenthrin induced 55.64-fold resistance in DCB. Relaxing from selection pressure reverted bifenthrin resistance to 24.93-fold No obvious cross-resistances were observed with all tested insecticides Bifenthrin-selected population was low in fitness. Bifenthrin resistance was incompletely dominant and autosomal
