Biochemistry and transcriptomic analyses of Phthorimaea absoluta (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) response to insecticides.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Phthorimaea absoluta is an invasive solanaceous plant pest with highly devastating effects on tomato plant. Heavy reliance on insecticide use to tackle the pest has been linked to insecticide resistance selection in P. absoluta populations. To underline insights on P. absoluta insecticide resistance mechanisms to diamides and avermectins, we evaluated the transcriptomic profile of parental (field-collected) and F8 (lab-reared) populations. Furthermore, to screen for the presence of organophosphate and pyrethroid resistance, we assessed the gene expression levels of acetylcholinesterase (ace1) and para-type voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSG) genes in the F1 to F8 lab-reared progeny of diamide and avermectin exposed P. absoluta field-collected populations. The VGSG gene showed up-regulation in 12.5% and down-regulation in 87.5% of the screened populations, while ace1 gene showed up-regulation in 37.5% and down-regulation in 62.5% of the screened populations. Gene ontology of the differentially expressed genes from both parental and eighth generations of diamide-sprayed P. absoluta populations revealed three genes involved in the metabolic detoxification of diamides in P. absoluta. Therefore, our study showed that the detoxification enzymes found could be responsible for P. absoluta diamide-based resistance, while behavioural resistance, which is stimulus-dependent, could be attributed to P. absoluta avermectin resistance.
