RESUMO

Fitness costs of insect resistance to insecticides can be exploited by integrating other pest control strategies in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs. The objective of this research was to evaluate the existence of fitness costs associated with the resistance of Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) to the pyrethroid insecticide lambda-cyhalothrin and their implications for host use by the larval parasitoid Campoletis aff. flavicincta (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) and interactions with the genetically modified maize (MON810) that expresses Cry1Ab toxin of Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner (Bt maize) and in the immune response to parasitization by Campoletis aff. flavicincta. Fitness costs associated to resistance of S. frugiperda to lambda-cyhalothrin were detected by the delay in larval and pupal development, reduction in the pupal weight and longevity of females, sex ratio, net reproductive rate (Ro), intrinsic rate of natural increase (rm) and the finite rate of increase (). No differences were detected in host acceptance and survival of Campoletis aff. flavicincta in susceptible and lambda-cyhalothrin-resistant larvae of S. frugiperda. However, larval parasitization was higher on the resistant than on the susceptible strain of S. frugiperda in cage studies with Bt and non-Bt maize plants. Then, studies were conducted by using Real time-PCR to evaluate the differential expression of genes associated with metabolism (methionine-rich protein), immune response (calreticulin, lysozyme, collagen IV-2, protease-3 hemocyte, serine protease, immunolectin, scavenger receptor class C) and xenobiotic detoxification (glutathione-S-transferase 145 and P450 monooxygenases Cyp9A31 and Cyp333B2) expressed in different tissues (fat body, hemocytes and/or midgut), in the absence and presence of larval parasitization of both strains of S. frugiperda by Campoletis aff. flavicincta. Overall, gene expression in susceptible larvae was higher than that of lambdacyhalothrin- resistant larvae, regardless of the period of development, tissue evaluated and presence or not of parasitization by Campoletis aff. flavicincta. Finally, studies were conducted to evaluate the effect of the resistance of S. frugiperda to lambda-cyhalothrin on cellular (total hemocyte count) and humoral (phenoloxidases, lysozyme and antimicrobial activities and nitric oxide concentration) immune responses in the absence or presence of parasitization by Campoletis aff. flavicincta. The resistance of S. frugiperda to lambdacyhalothrin conferred only minor changes in the host immune system (increased total hemocyte count, reduced antimicrobial activity and increased lysozyme activity), which may not interfere with fitness costs leading to higher exploitation of resistant larvae in the presence of parasitization by Campoletis aff. flavicincta. Therefore, the management of S. frugiperda by using the Bt maize technology and the biological control via parasitoid Campoletis aff. flavicincta can favor the resetting to susceptibility of S. frugiperda to lambda-cyhalothrin.
