Description
Sonu Koirala and co-authors read the gene activity of spider mites in 2024 to learn how they resist mite killing sprays. The two spotted spider mite attacks many crops, and new sprays are costly to find and register, so old ones must be protected.
Four mite groups from hop fields were compared: one open to the sprays, one resistant to a first spray, and two resistant to a second. Resistant groups had far more genes turned down than turned up. The turned down genes clustered on chitin, the stuff of the mite shell. Turned up genes linked to enzymes that cut proteins and to redox work, which hints they help break down the sprays.
