The prevalence of pyrethroid resistance phenotype and genotype in Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus in Yucatan, Mexico
چکیده انگلیسی

A field survey was conducted to evaluate susceptibility of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus to cypermethrin on 49 farms in three areas of Yucatan, Mexico. The modified larval packet test was used to evaluate larval mortality at different cypermethrin concentrations. Dose-mortality regressions, lethal concentrations (LC50-LC99), confidence intervals and slope were estimated by probit analysis. Phenotype was defined as susceptible, tolerant or resistant when the resistance factor (RF) derived from both LC50 and LC99 determinations were <3, 3-5 or >5, respectively. An allele specific PCR (AS-PCR) was used to determine the frequency of a sodium channel mutation (F1550I, Phe → Ile) associated with pyrethroid resistance. Overall, 26.5%, 40.8% and 32.6% of tick populations were susceptible, tolerant and resistant to cypermethrin, respectively. A substantial inter-population variation in the level of cypermethrin response was evident (resistance factors ranged from 0.3 to 2599 and from 0.7 to >5000 when were indicated by the LC50 and LC99, respectively). The F1550I mutation (R allele) in R. microplus was present in all studied areas. The increasing presence of the R allele correlated well with increased levels of response indicated by both the LC50 (r2 = 0.659, p = 0.001) and LC99 (r2 = 0.688, p = 0.001) to cypermethrin. These results indicated that the F1550I mutation is a major common mechanism responsible for pyrethroid resistance in field populations of R. microplus ticks in the Mexican tropics. Both bioassay and AS-PCR showed that the prevalence of cypermethrin-resistant/tolerant R. microplus is high in Yucatan, Mexico and the relationship between the RF and the frequency of the R allele supports the role of F1550I as one of the most important mechanisms conferring pyrethroid resistance in these R. microplus populations.
