Inhibition of transcriptional regulation of detoxification genes contributes to insecticide resistance management in Spodoptera exigua by Bo Hu, Yuping Deng, Tao Lu, Miaomiao Ren, Kuitun Liu, Cong Rao, Hailiang Guo, Jianya Su

“…Bioassay results showed that sofalcone significantly enhanced the toxicity (more than 3-fold) of chlorpyrifos and lambda-cyhalothrin against S. exigua larvae. Finally, we demonstrate that sofalcone can greatly improve the susceptibility of S. exigua larvae to insecticides by inhibiting the activity of the ROS/CncC-dependent detoxifying enzymes and downregulating the expression levels of detoxification genes. …”
