Abstrakt: The stability of resistance to fenpropathrin was assessed using five populations of Diaphorina citri with varying initial resistances ranging from fully susceptible (SS) to fully resistant (RR). Furthermore, we quantified the relative expression of voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) genes in crosses of field-selected and laboratory-susceptible D. citri lines after eight months without insecticide selection. We found that resistance to fenpropathrin remained elevated up to eight months after exposure to fenpropathrin. A real-time quantitative PCR analysis using the susceptible baseline population revealed that levels of VGSC gene expression were significantly higher in the RS75 cross and the RR100 fully resistant line eight months after their last fenpropathrin exposure. Our results suggest that while fenpropathrin resistance is likely unstable under field conditions when interbreeding with susceptible individuals is possible, resistance can remain stable for at least 8 months if those populations are isolated. Further, insecticide rotation and the maintenance of susceptible reservoirs of individuals should mitigate fenpropathrin resistance in D. citri over time. The development of a VGSC gene biomarker may be a useful tool for monitoring pyrethroid resistance in D. citri going forward. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
