Identification of a novel cytochrome P450 CYP3356A1 linked with insecticide detoxification in Bradysia odoriphaga

Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases play an important role in the metabolic detoxification of insecticides in insect pests. However, little is known about the role of a specific P450 gene and its responses to insecticide exposure in Bradysia odoriphaga, a major pest in Chinese chive production.In this study, a novel P450 gene, CYP3356A1, was cloned from Bradysia odoriphaga. The full-length cDNA sequence of CYP3356A1 is 2153 bp and its open reading...
