The Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) cryptic species complex comprises important insect pests that cause devastating damage to agricultural crops worldwide. In China, the B. tabaci Mediterranean (MED) (or biotype Q) species is threatening agricultural production all over the country as resistance to commonly used insecticides has increased. This situation highlights the need for alternative pest control measures. Cyantraniliprole, a novel anthranilic diamide insecticide, has been widely employed to control Hemipteran pests. To monitor the levels of resistance to cyantraniliprole in B. tabaci field populations in China, bioassays were conducted for 18 field samples from nine provinces over two years. Compared with median lethal concentration (LC50) for the MED susceptible strain, all field samples had signi ficantly higher resistance to cyantraniliprole.Furthermore, resistance factors (RFs) increased signi ficantly in samples from Shanxi (from 5.62 in 2015 to 25.81 in 2016),Hunan (3.30 in 2015 to 20.97 in 2016) and Hubei (from 9.81 in 2015 to 23.91 in 2016) provinces. This study indicates a considerable decrease in the ef ficacy of cyantraniliprole against B. tabaci and establishes a baseline of susceptibility that could serve as a reference for future monitoring and management of B. tabaci resistance to cyantraniliprole.

1. lntroduction
The tobacco white fly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), also known as cotton white fly or sweet potato white fly, is a cryptic species complex of small insects with sucking mouthparts.This species complex is distributed globally in tropical,subtropical, and low-latitude temperate regions. B. tabaci has been recorded feeding on more than 600 plants (De Barro et al. 2011; Wang et al. 2014) including cotton, tomato,tobacco, cassava, sweet potato, and many other flower and vegetable crops. In addition, B. tabaci is an important disease vector, transmitting more than 200 species of plant viruses (Hogenhout et al. 2008). The two most invasive and destructive cryptic species of B. tabaci are Middle East-Asia Minor I (MEAM1 or biotype B) and Mediterranean (MED or biotype Q). MEAM1 is widely distributed in China on vegetable and cotton crops (Luo et al. 2002; Wang et al. 2010), and MED was first detected in China in 2003 following suspected importation on poinsettia (Chu et al. 2006). Recently, MED has displaced MEAM1 and is now the dominant species in most regions of China (Zheng et al. 2017). Insecticides such as organophosphates, pyrethroids, carbamates and insect growth regulator (IGR) used to be applied as the primary means of controlling B. tabaci. However, a strong reduction in the ef ficacy of these insecticides has been reported in some populations of B. tabaci due to rapid evolution of insecticide resistance (Ahmad et al. 2010; Wang et al. 2010; Basit et al.2012; Zheng et al. 2017). Additionally, a relatively high toxicity of these insecticides has been observed in non-target organisms, including arthropods and even humans (David et al. 2007; Andrione et al. 2016; Cook et al. 2016). As a result, it is not an appropriate choice to extensively employ above insecticides with low pesticide residues for producing agricultural products.
In the 1990s, a number of neonicotinoids such as imidacloprid, nitenpyram, acetamiprid, thiamethoxam,clothianidin and dinotefuran were developed and used to control Hemipteran pests around the globe (Bass et al.2015). Currently, B. tabaci MED is dominant in China and has been threating agricultural production throughout the country (Pan et al. 2011, 2015). More importantly, MED has developed resistance to several different insecticides,especially neonicotinoids (Pan et al. 2015; Zheng et al.2017). Anthranilic diamide insecticides have been shown to effectively control a large number of insect pest species from different orders such as Diptera (Peck et al. 2008),Thysanoptera (Jacobson and Kennedy 2011), Lepidoptera (Wakil et al. 2013), Isoptera (Barwary et al. 2015),Hemiptera (Grávalos et al. 2015) and Coleoptera (Lanka et al. 2015). Following the commercial success of chlorantraniliprole, the first anthranilic diamide, cyantraniliprole, the second systemic anthranilic diamide, has been used to control Hemipteran pests (Sattelle et al. 2008).Cyantraniliprole is a powerful tool for managing adult and immature stages of white fly, and for reducing transmission of plant viruses (Lahm et al. 2007; Grávalos et al. 2015;Wang et al. 2017; Zheng et al. 2017). Cyantraniliprole has provided a promising alternative to existing insecticides,as it exhibits novel modes of action and acute toxicological pro files against insect pests.
Before the initial application of any new insecticide, it is important to determine baseline susceptibility to con firm the current resistance situation in the field. Studies of baseline susceptibility of cyantraniliprole in B. tabaci from the United States and Spain demonstrated no cross-resistance to commonly used insecticides, and proved to be an effective way to mitigate resistance of B. tabaci to other insecticides (Li et al. 2012; Grávalos et al. 2015). In the present study, we determined the baseline susceptibility of cyantraniliprole and assessed the development of resistance to cyantraniliprole in B. tabaci from nine provinces in China.
2. Materials and methods
2.1. B. tabaci strains
B. tabaci MED susceptible strain (MED-S) was originally collected from damaged poinsettia in Beijing, China in 2009(Pan et al. 2012). The insects were fed on cotton plants(Gossypium hirsutum L. var. Shiyuan 321) free of any insecticides under a 16 h L:8 h D photoperiod at (27±1)°C and (60±10)% relative humidity (RH). Nine samples of B. tabaci were collected in 2015 and 2016 from different host plants across nine provinces in China. Sampling site,date and host plant are listed in Table 1. More than 3 000 adults were collected randomly from crop leaves to obtain F1progeny. In addition, at least 200 individuals of each sample were collected at random, and then placed in a 1.5-mL centrifuge tube with 95% ethanol and stored at –20°C for later species identi fication. All samples were identi fied as MED according to nucleotide sequences of a fragment of the mitochondrial COI gene (Luo et al. 2002).

2.2. Bioassays
Bioassays of cyantraniliprole on adult B. tabaci from test samples were conducted using the leaf-disc dipping bioassay method (Wang et al. 2017). According to the protocol, stock solution (1 000 mg L–1) of the insecticide was prepared in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Then, five concentrations of insecticide working solutions were prepared by diluting the stock solution in 0.1‰ Triton X-100 in distilled water. Cotton leaf discs (20 mm in diameter)were prepared and dipped for 20 s in one of the five concentrations of insecticide solution with the adaxial surface facing down. Then, the leaf discs were dried by placing them in a flat-bottomed glass tube (76 mm long) containing agar (2 mL of 15 g L–1). Control leaf discs were dipped in 0.1‰ Triton X-100 as described above and four replicates were made. Adult insects reared on insecticide-free cotton plants in the greenhouse were collected in the tubes containing the leaf discs by inverting the tubes over the insects and allowing the adults to fly into the tubes. About 40–60 adults were randomly collected per tube. After sample collection, the open end of each tube was sealed with a cotton plug and maintained at (27±1)°C and (60±10)% RH with a 16 h L:8 h D photoperiod. After 48 h, mortality was monitored under a microscope and immobile adults were considered dead.
2.3. Statistical analysis
Probit analyses were performed to determine statistical signi ficance of the concentration-dependent mortality using PoloPlus (LeOra Software 2002). Resistance factors (RFs)were calculated between the estimated median lethal concentration (LC50) of each field sample and the MED-S strain using the method of Robertson and Preisler (1992).
3. Results
3.1. 2015 resistance monitoring tests
Large variability was observed in the susceptibility of different field samples in 2015, but all samples were signi ficantly more resistant to cyantraniliprole than the MED-S stain.Among the samples from all nine collection sites (Table 1),LC50values ranged from 5.53 to 27.40 mg L–1and slopes ranged from 1.19 (SE=0.11) to 1.01 (SE=0.10), resulting in RFs ranging from 3.30 to 16.36 compared to MED-S strain as the control (Table 2). Among them, one of the field samples, the Zhejiang strain, had higher resistance to cyantraniliprole than the other strains. The LC50value of 27.40 mg L–1for the Zhejiang strain was signi ficantly higher than the LC50values for the other field samples (Table 2).
3.2. 2016 resistance monitoring tests
Results of the 2016 bioassays showed that several tested samples were more resistant to cyantraniliprole compared to 2015 according to the LC50values and RFs (Table 3).The LC50values for three field samples (Shanxi, Hunan and Hubei) ranged from 32.81 to 40.39 mg L–1and the slopes ranged from 1.13 (SE=0.10) to 1.21 (SE=0.11), which were higher than those observed in 2015. Moreover, in these 3 samples, compared with 2015, the fiducial limits of the LC50values and RF were not overlapped, respectively, indicating signi ficant difference in the level of resistance in each sample within two years (Tables 2 and 3). Speci fically, a signi ficantly increased level of resistance was observed in Shanxi (RF from 5.62 to 25.81), Hunan (RF from 3.30 to 20.97) and Hubei (RF from 9.81 to 23.91). The LC50values for the other six samples ranged from 10.98 to 27.20 mg L–1and the slopes ranged from 1.13 (SE=0.10) to 1.16(SE=0.11), corresponding to RF levels of 7.01 to 17.38(Table 3). The overlapping fiducial limits of the sample in 2015 and its counterpart in 2016 suggested no differences in the LC50values. The RF values of field samples ranged from 5.63 to 16.36 in 2015 and from 7.01 to 17.38, also illustrating no signi ficant differences.

4. Discussion
Cyantraniliprole is the second-generation product in the anthranilic diamide class developed by the DuPont Company,USA, and it provides cross-spectrum control of chewing and sucking pests (Rattan et al. 2015). According to our previous research, cyantraniliprole exhibited highly lethal and sublethal effects on B. tabaci MED (Wang et al. 2017).Application of cyantraniliprole in China helped to deal with the potential threat of resistance to neonicotinoids. Thus, it is necessary to know whether B. tabaci has already evolved,or has the potential to evolve, resistance to cyantraniliprole in the field. In order to address this question, we compared one laboratory susceptible strain with 18 field samples collected from 9 provinces in China in 2015 or 2016. The field samples were then tested to establish the baseline susceptibility of cyantraniliprole against B. tabaci MED adults using a cotton leaf-bioassay. This is the first report to describe geographical differences in susceptibility of B. tabaci to cyantraniliprole in China, and it could be helpful for resistance monitoring and management.
Our results indicate signi ficant variation in susceptibility to cyantraniliprole based on geographically separated samples of B. tabaci MED in China. Similar geographical differences of susceptibility to cyantraniliprole in B. tabaci have been studied in the past. High susceptibility to cyantraniliprole was demonstrated in the United States and Spain, after several years of monitoring resistance (Li et al. 2012; Grávalos et al. 2015). Furthermore, low levels of resistance or toleranlce to cyantraniliprole have been reported in several species of pests such as Frankliniella occidentalis (Bielza and Guillén 2015), Leucinodes orbonalis (Kodandaram et al. 2015),Bactrocera dorsalis (Zhang et al. 2015) and Helicoverpa armigera (Bird 2016), indicating that cyantraniliprole could be an ef ficient alternative for rotation with other insecticides in integrated pest management (IPM) systems.
Our study demonstrated the baseline susceptibility of B. tabaci to cyantraniliprole in China, and showed that resistance levels increased signi ficantly within two years.Compared with varied levels of resistance from 2015 to 2016, the samples from Shanxi, Hunan, and Hubei developed signi ficant resistance to cyantraniliprole after one year of application. In contrast, B. tabaci samples from different regions of the United States and Spain were still highly susceptible to cyantraniliprole after multiple years.In the United States, both B and Q biotypes showed high susceptibility to cyantraniliprole over two years of monitoring resistance (Li et al. 2012). Similarly, the results of seven years of monitoring in Spain indicated B. tabaci MED had very high susceptibility to cyantraniliprole (Grávalos et al.2015). We speculate that, in China, frequent application and overuse of cyantraniliprole could cause rapid development of resistance. The rapid development of resistance to cyantraniliprole has been found in other species of pests from China. Sang et al. (2016) reported obvious regional variation of cyantraniliprole susceptibilities in Spodoptera litura from different locations in South China, and suggested the possibility of resistance to cyantraniliprole in S. litura after long periods of use. In addition, LC50values of three field populations of B. dorsalis, an important pest of fruits and vegetables, were more than 10 μg g–1and LC50values over 120 μg g–1with a 19.44-fold resistant ratio were detected after 14 generations of selection (Zhang et al.2014). Combined with the above results, we speculated that higher levels of resistance against cyantraniliprole could appear in the field in a short period of time owing to the heterogeneity of the field populations and relatively higher selection pressure.
It has been reported that B. tabaci has the potential ability to evolve resistance to many insecticides after widespread application in the field (Horowitz et al. 2005; Horowitz and Ishaaya 2014; Bass et al. 2015). Considering the strong evidence of insecticide resistance in B. tabaci, the risk of developing resistance to cyantraniliprole is concerning.Managing the development of resistance should begin when novel pesticides are first applied (Jutsum et al. 1998), meaning that it is essential to monitor resistance of B. tabaci to cyantraniliprole before it is widely used. The data reported in the current study would provide a useful foundation for monitoring cyantraniliprole resistance in B. tabaci MED populations. However, further studies should be conducted to con firm its detoxi fication mechanisms, and the spectrum of cross-resistance should also be demonstrated. Faced with field-evolved resistance to cyantraniliprole in several areas of China, an urgent and effective resistance management strategy should be launched immediately to delay further development of resistance to cyantraniliprole in B. tabaci.
5. Conclusion
Compared with the MED-S strain, several field samples tested in this research showed higher level of resistance to cyantraniliprole in B. tabaci MED. In Shanxi, Hunan and Hubei, the two-year study of resistance monitoring in field proved that the development of resistance to cyantraniliprole in B. tabaci MED was rapid. Although cyantraniliprole is one novel agent with novel modes of action against B. tabaci, it is urgent to rotate with several other insecticides for delaying the development of resistance.
