摘要： Simple Summary Bemisia tabaci MED is an invasive pest that had caused considerable economic damage in the past decades. Its successful colonization is closely related to heat-shock proteins (HSPs), which are related to heat resistance. In this study, 33 BtaHsps were identified based on the sequenced genome of B. tabaci MED belonging to six HSP families, among which 22 BtaHsps were newly identified. Analysis of the secondary structure and evolutionary relationship showed that they were all closely related. In addition, BtaHsp90A3 of the HSP90 family was screened by analyzing the expression level changes of these genes under 42 degrees C heat shock and RNAi was performed on the BtaHsp90A3. The results showed that the silencing of BtaHsp90A3 is closely related to the heat resistance of B. tabaci MED. Taken together, this study conducted an in-depth identification of BtaHsps that clarifies their evolutionary relationships and their response to thermal stress in B. tabaci MED. The thermal tolerance of Bemisia tabaci MED, an invasive whitefly species with worldwide distribution, plays an important role in its ecological adaptation during the invasion process. Heat-shock proteins (HSPs) are closely related to heat resistance. In this study, 33 Hsps (BtaHsps) were identified based on sequenced genome of B. tabaci MED belonging to six HSP families, among which 22 Hsps were newly identified. The secondary structures of a further 22 BtaHsps were also predicted. The results of RT-qPCR showed that heat shock could affect the expression of 14 of the 22 Hsps newly identified in this study. Among them, the expression level of six Hsps increased under 42 degrees C treatment. As the unstudied gene, BtaHsp90A3 had the highest increase rate. Therefore, BtaHsp90A3 was chosen for the RNAi test, and silencing BtaHsp90A3 by RNAi decreased the survival rate of adult B. tabaci at 42 degrees C. The results indicated that only a few Hsps were involved in the thermal tolerance of host whitefly although many Hsps would response under heat stress. This study conducted a more in-depth and comprehensive identification that demonstrates the evolutionary relationship of BtaHsps and illustrates the response of BtaHsps under the influence of thermal stress in B. tabaci MED.
