| Popis: | Esterase activities associated with organophosphate insecticide resistance in the Australian sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina, are compared with similar activities in other Diptera. The enzymes making the major contribution to methyl butyrate hydrolysis ("ali-esterase") in L. cuprina, M. domestica, and D. melanogaster comigrate during electrophoresis. The enzymes in L. cuprina and D. melanogaster correspond to the naphthyl acetate hydrolyzing E3 and EST23 isozymes of those species. These and previously published data suggest that the ali-esterases of all three species are orthologous. Strains of L. cuprina fall into four groups on the basis of quantitative determinations of their ali-estesterase, OP hydrolase, and malathion carboxylesterase activities and these groups correspond to their status with respect to two types of OP resistance. Strains susceptible to OP's have high ali-esterase, low OP hydrolase, and intermediate MCE activities; those resistant to malathion but not diazinon have low ali-esterase, intermediate OP hydrolase, and high MCE activities; those resistant to diazinon but not malathion have low ali-esterase, high OP hydrolase, and low MCE activities; those resistant to both OPs have low ali-esterase, high OP hydrolase, and high MCE activities. The correlated changes among the three biochemical and two resistance phenotypes suggest that they are all properties of one gene/enzyme system; three major allelic variants of that system explain OP susceptibility and the two types of OP resistance. Models are proposed to explain the joint contribution of OP hydrolase and MCE activities to malathion resistance and the invariant association of low ali-esterase and elevated OP hydrolase activities in either type of resistance. |
