Identification and functional validation of glutathione S-transferase genes involved in detoxification of sulfoxaflor, afidopyropen and lambda-cyhalothrin in Aphis glycines.
Article in Pest management science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundGlutathione S-transferases (GSTs) play important roles in the detoxification of insecticides in insects. However, genome-wide identification and functional characterization of the GST gene family in the soybean aphid Aphis glycines have not been performed.
resultsA total of 17 AgGST genes were identified in the A. glycines genome and classified into five classes. Phylogenetic analysis and chromosomal mapping showed that delta and epsilon class genes experienced significant expansion. Exposure to LC₅₀ concentrations of sulfoxaflor, afidopyropen and lambda-cyhalothrin strongly induced several AgGST genes with AgGSTd5, AgGSTd6 and AgGSTe2 displaying the highest expression levels. RNA interference of AgGSTd5 significantly increased aphid mortality following exposure to all three insecticides. Knockdown of AgGSTd6 significantly elevated mortality under sulfoxaflor, while knockdown of AgGSTe2 significantly increased mortality under both sulfoxaflor and lambda-cyhalothrin. In contrast, silencing of AgGSTt1 and AgGSTt2 showed no significant effect on aphid mortality under the tested insecticides.
conclusionThis study provides comprehensive characterization of the GST gene family in A. glycines and demonstrates that AgGSTd5 plays a central role in the detoxification of sulfoxaflor, afidopyropen and lambda-cyhalothrin, while AgGSTd6 and AgGSTe2 contribute to tolerance against specific insecticides among the three compounds. These genes represent promising molecular targets for monitoring insecticide detoxification responses and for the development of strategies based on GST inhibitors to enhance insecticide efficacy in integrated pest management. © 2026 Society of Chemical Industry.
