摘要: Juvenile hormone III (JH III) plays primary roles in regulation of metamorphosis, reproduction and diapause in Leptinotarsa decemlineata, a notorious defoliator of potato. The neurosecretory cell-borne substance(s) negatively affects the final two steps in JH biosynthesis, catalyzed respectively by an epoxidase CYP15A1 and a juvenile hormone acid methyltransferase (JHAMT). In a few insect species other than L. decemlineata, the inhibitory substance is allatostatin (AS) neuropeptide. In this study, two putative AS genes encoding LdAS-C and LdAS-B precursors were cloned. Both LdAS-C and LdAS-B were expressed in the egg, larvae, pupae and adults, and highly expressed in the brain and the gut Dietary introduction of double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) targeting LdAS-C and LdAS-B successfully knocked down respective target genes. Ingestion during 3 and 6 consecutive days of dsLdAS-C significantly increased the LdJHAMT mRNA levels by 3.8 and 9.9 fold respectively. In contrast ingestion of dsLdAS-B only slightly increased the LdJHAMT expression level by 1.1 and 1.7 fold. Moreover, after one, two and three days' ingestion of dsLdAS-C, the relative JH levels in the hemolymph of treated larvae were 25, 42 and 1.9 fold higher than those in control beetles. Furthermore, ingestion of dsLdAS-C and dsLdAS-B significantly affected larval growth and delayed larval development. Thus, we provide a line of experimental evidence in L decemlineata to support the concept that AS-C acts as an allatostatin and inhibit JH biosynthesis. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
