What is Toxicity of nitenpyram to silkworm (Bombyx mori L.) and its potential mechanisms about?

Silkworm (Bombyx mori L.), as an economic insect, occupies a certain position in the development of China's economy. The neonicotinoid insecticide nitenpyram is commonly used in farmland to control planthoppers and aphids. In China, mulberry orchards are often planted adjacent to fields or commercial crops, and mist drifts occur during application, which may affect the production safety of Bombyx mori. In this study, a risk assessment of nitenpyram was carried out, and the results showed that there were risks in spraying nitenpyram around the periphery and subperipheries of mulberry fields. However, few studies have reported the mechanism underlying nitenpyram's toxic effect on silkworms. Here, we validated 25 differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs in the nitenpyram treatment group of silkworms, and the significantly enriched mTOR signaling pathway, oxidative phosphorylation and FoxO signaling pathway were verified. Among them, bmo-miR-2766-5P was up-regulated by 2.122-fold, and the expression of its regulated target gene 101,741,287 was up-regulated. After the injection of bmo-miR-2766-5P inhibitor, the Log2FC value of 101,741,287 was changed from 1.26 to −2.19. Bmo-miR-3326, bmo-mi
