FIELD OF SPECIALIZATION

• My research mainly focuses on:

1. Insecticide molecular toxicology;

2. Insecticide resistance mechanism;

3. Insecticide mode of action;

4. Insecticide metabolism.

• From 2006-2011, my research mainly focused on insecticide toxicology and insecticide resistance monitoring. The resistant mechanism of Imidacloprid in whitefly was studied with moleculor biology methods and a new P450 gene (CYP6CX4) which is responsible for imidacloprid resistance was found. The gene was functionally expressed with sf9 systerm and imidaclorid was successful metabolized by CYP6CX4.

• From 2011-2017, my research mainly focused on insecticide mode of action and insecticide metabolism.

1. Pyridalyl is a newly discovered insecticide with unknown mode of action. A pyridalyl resistant diamondback moth strain has been successefully selected under laboratory conditions. Now we are using the next generation sequencing technology to compared the differences between the susceptible and resistant strains. The mode of action of pyridalyl will be analysed based on the sequencing data.

2. Pyridalyl and its potential metabolites in the excrement of Helicoverpa armigera and Spodoptera exiguawere investigated and two potential metabolites were found. This finding may help to analyse the action mode of pyridalyl.
