摘要: Organic fertilizers-derived volatiles attract Holotrichia parallela during oviposition. However, the mechanisms underlying the perception of oviposition cues in H. parallela remain unclear. Here, H. parallela odorant-binding protein 3 (HparOBP3) was identified as a key OBP. Bioinformatics analysis showed that HparOBP3 clustered together with Holotrichia oblita OBP8. HparOBP3 was mainly expressed in the antennae of both sexes. Recom-binant HparOBP3 exhibited distinct binding affinities towards 22 compounds released by organic fertilizers. After 48 h of RNA interference (RNAi), the expression of HparOBP3 in male and female antennae was decreased by 90.77 % and 82.30 %, respectively. In addition, silencing of HparOBP3 significantly reduced the electro-physiological responses and tropism of males to cis-3-hexen-1-ol, 1-hexanol, and (Z)-beta-ocimene as well as females to cis-3-hexen-1-ol, 1-hexanol, benzaldehyde, and (Z)-beta-ocimene. Molecular docking indicated that hydrophobic residues Leu-83, Leu-87, Phe-108, and Ile-120 of HparOBP3 were important amino acids for interacting with ligands. Mutation of the key residue, Leu-83, significantly diminished the binding ability of HparOBP3. Furthermore, acrylic plastic arena bioassays showed that the attraction and oviposition indexes of organic fer-tilizers to H. parallela were reduced by 55.78 % and 60.11 %, respectively, after silencing HparOBP3. These results suggest that HparOBP3 is essential in mediating the oviposition behavior of H. parallela.
