中文摘要：

蜕皮激素是一种可以诱导一系列变态发育关键过程的昆虫蜕皮调节激素，与蜕皮激素受体结合以后与配体蛋白Usp作用形成一个复合体发挥作用．通过兼并引物克隆获得斜纹夜蛾一个600bp的EcRcDNAs片段编码200个氨基酸，斜纹夜蛾是东亚地区一种主要的农作物害虫．利用这段序列设计了EcR—dsRNA通过注射幼虫的实验来分析EcR基因在不同发育阶段的功能．同时利用印楝素喂食RNAi注射的幼虫观察其与正常对照组有何发育差异．结果显示EcRRNAi会影响正常的蜕皮过程并导致不完成蛹化，在EcRRNAi注射并喂食印楝素的实验组，幼虫出现生长迟缓、发育进程紊乱和腹足发育不正常等现象，由此推测印楝素和EcRRNAi或许影响了蜕皮级联调控通路，由此引发变态发育过程中组织重建紊乱．

英文摘要：

Ecdysone is the insect molting hormone which induces a series of events critical for ecdysis, beginning with the formation of a complex between ecdysteroid receptor （EcR） and its partner protein, ultraspiracle （Usp）. We cloned a 600 bp partial cDNAs encoding 200 amino acids EcR protein by degenerate primers from the common cutworm, Spodoptera litura, a destructive agricultural pest insect in East Asia. We used this fragment to design the EcR-dsRNA to interfere the corresponding gene to analysis the change in different de- velopment stages. Using the Azadirachtin （Az） feeding the RNAi injected larvae to observe the development difference with normal control. Results indicated that the EcR RNAi in- terference the normal ecdysis and result in incomplete pupal molt. In the Az treatment after EcR RNAi injection, the larvae stunt growth and development program were disturbed and observed abnormal proleg phenotype. We deduced that Az and EcR RNAi maybe influence the key genes and inhibit the ecdysone cascade modulate pathway, which result in the dis- order of tissue remodeling in molting.
