Capsicum annuum proteinase inhibitor (CanPI7) is a multi-domain potato type II inhibitor (Pin-II) containing four inhibitory repeat domains (IRD), which target major classes of digestive enzymes in the gut of Helicoverpa armigera larvae. Stable integration and expression of the transgene in T1 transgenic generation, were confirmed by established molecular techniques. Protein extract of transgenic tomato lines showed increased inhibitory activity against H. armigera gut proteinases, supporting those domains of CanPI7 protein to be effective and active. When T1 generation plants were analyzed, they exhibited antibiosis effect against first instar larvae of H. armigera. Further, larvae fed on transgenic tomato leaves showed delayed growth relative to larvae fed on control plants, but did not change mortality rates significantly. Thus, better crop protection can be achieved in transgenic tomato by overexpression of multi-domain proteinase inhibitor CanPI7 gene against H. armigera larvae.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.351</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tellis, Meenakshi B.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mohite, Sharada D.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nair, Vineetkumar S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chaudhari, Bhagyashri Y.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ahmed, Shadab</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kotkar, Hemlata M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joshi, Rakesh S.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Inhibition of trehalose synthesis in lepidoptera reduces larval fitness</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Advanced Biology </style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lepidoptera</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">metabolic homeostasis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">trehalose</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">trehalose 6-phosphate phosphatase</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2024</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FEB</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;
	Trehalose is synthesized in insects through the trehalose 6-phosphate synthase and phosphatase (TPS/TPP) pathway. TPP dephosphorylates trehalose 6-phosphate to release trehalose. Trehalose is involved in metamorphosis, but its relation with body weight, size, and developmental timing is unexplored. The expression and activity of TPS/TPP fluctuate depending on trehalose demand. Thus, TPS/TPP inhibition can highlight the significance of trehalose in insect physiology. TPS/TPP transcript levels are elevated in the pre-pupal and pupal stages in Helicoverpa armigera. The inhibition of recombinantly expressed TPP by N-(phenylthio)phthalimide (NPP), is validated by in vitro assays. In vivo inhibition of trehalose synthesis reduces larval weight and size, hampers metamorphosis, and reduces its overall fitness. Insufficient trehalose leads to a shift in glucose flux, reduced energy, and dysregulated fatty acid oxidation. Metabolomics reaffirms the depletion of trehalose, glucose, glucose 6-phosphate, and suppressed tricarboxylic acid cycle. Reduced trehalose hampers the energy level affecting larval vitality. Through trehalose synthesis inhibition, the importance of trehalose in insect physiology and development is investigated. Also, in two other lepidopterans, TPP inhibition impedes physiology and survival. NPP is also found to be effective as an insecticidal formulation. Overall, trehalose levels affect the larval size, weight, and metabolic homeostasis for larval-pupal transition in lepidoptera. Inhibition of trehalose synthesis enzyme TPS/TPP is a good model to study the contribution of trehalose in attaining body weight and in larval-pupal transition. Transcriptomics and metabolomics studies reveal overall reduced energy and dysregulated glucose, protein, and fatty acid metabolism.image&lt;/p&gt;
