ABSTRACT
The Drosophila melanogaster MD-RR strain contains an Rdl mutation (A301S) resulting in resistance to several insecticide classes viz. phenyl pyrazoles (e.g., fipronil), cyclodienes (e.g., dieldrin), and chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (e.g., lindane). Fitness costs are commonly observed with resistant insect populations as side effects of the genetic change conferring the resistant phenotype. Because of fitness costs, reversion from the resistant to susceptible genotype and phenotype is common. However, the Rdl genotype in D. melanogaster appears to allow the flies to maintain the resistant genotype/phenotype without selective pressure and with minimal fitness costs. We provide evidence that compensation for the Rdl mutation influences the cholinergic system, where an increase in acetylcholinesterase gene expression and enzyme activity results in neurophysiological changes and cross resistance to a carbamate insecticide (propoxur oral resistance ratio (RR) of 63) and an organophosphate insecticide (dichlorvos oral RR of 7). Such cross resistance was not previously reported with the initial collection and testing of this strain. In addition to acetylcholinesterase, the Rdl mutation influences the expression of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor subtype-B, resulting in resistance to non-selective muscarinic compounds (pilocarpine and atropine). Collectively, these results indicate that the Rdl mutation (A301S) at GABA-gated ionophore complex influences the physiology of the cholinergic system, leading to resistance to established insecticide classes. Additionally, this mutation may impact the effectiveness of insecticides targeting novel sites, like muscarinic receptors.
