Abstract Populus cathayana × canadansis ‘Xinlin 1’ (‘P.‘xin lin 1’) with the characteristics of rapid growth and high yield, is frequently attacked by herbivorous insects. However, little is known about how it defenses against Hyphantria cunea (H. cunea) at molecular and biochemical levels. Differences in the transcriptome and metabolome were analyzed after ‘P. ‘xin lin 1’ leaves were fed to H. cunea for 0h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 16h and 24h. In the five comparison groups including 2h vs. CK, 4h vs. CK, 8h vs. CK, 16h vs. CK, and 24h vs. CK, a total of 8925 genes and 842 metabolites were differentially expressed. A total of 825 transcription factors (TFs) were identified, which encoded 56 TF families. The results showed that the top four families with the highest number of TFs were AP2/ERF, MYB, C2C2, bHLH. Analyses of leaves which were fed to H. cunea showed that the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially accumulated metabolites (DAMs) were significantly enriched in plant hormone signal transduction pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, flavonoid, flavone and flavonol and anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway. Additionally, there were a number of genes significantly up-regulated in MAPK signaling pathway. Some compounds involved in plant hormone signal transduction and flavonoid/flavone and flavonol/ anthocyanin pathways such as jasmonic acid (JA), jasmonoyl-L-Isoleucine (JA-Ile), kaempferol and cyanidin-3-O-glucoside were induced in infested ‘P.‘xin lin 1’. This study provides a new understanding for exploring the dynamic response mechanism of poplar to the infestation of H. cunea.
