Transcriptional responses of Aedes aegypti chemosensory tissues in response to volatile DEET and citronella oil [0.03%]
蚊虫化学感觉组织的转录组响应及其对驱蚊剂DEET和香茅油的反应
Ivan Drahun,Jessica M Sparrow,Cody W Koloski et al.
Ivan Drahun et al.
DEET and citronella oil are two of the most widely used mosquito repellents; however, their impact on chemosensory tissues is not fully understood. In their vapour phase, the repellency effect involves the olfactory system, with mosquitoes ...
An analysis of Wolbachia incidence and genetics in non-ant Hymenoptera diversity [0.03%]
蚂蚁之外的 hymenoptera 多样性中的沃尔巴克体发生率和遗传特征分析
Yury Ilinsky,Roman Bykov

Wolbachia bacteria are widespread maternally inherited symbionts of Nematoda and diverse Arthropoda hosts. Their evolutionary success is determined by the ability to affect the biology of the host in different ways, promoting the relative f...
Distinctive gene expression in the reduced first thoracic legs of a nymphalid butterfly [0.03%]
nymphalid蝴蝶幼虫期第一胸足基因表达的独特性

Asia E Hoile
Nymphalid butterflies have unique leg morphology among Lepidoptera: they are the only family with greatly reduced forelegs (T1) in adults of both sexes, which are not used for walking. Previous studies have suggested that T1 legs may have c...
Nuclear receptor genes HR3 and βFTZ-F1 are involved in moulting development, pupation and eclosion in Hyphantria cunea (Drury) [0.03%]
核受体基因HR3和βFTZ-F1参与楔天牛的蜕皮、化蛹及羽化发育过程
Jingqing Chu,Jiawen Zhang,Lili Sun et al.
Jingqing Chu et al.
Nuclear receptor genes play crucial roles in insect moulting. These genes, found in all insects, produce important proteins that control the expression of other genes, which in turn regulate the moulting process in larvae. This study invest...

The insect epidermis possesses the potential to generate remarkable diversity in exoskeletal cuticle traits, including colour, thickness and mechanical properties. Genetic manipulation is essential for investigating the molecular mechanisms...
Physiological role and application potential of HcCAT2 in multi-host adaptability of Hyphantria cunea revealed by RNA interference [0.03%]
RNA干扰揭示Hyphantria cunea宿主适应性的生理作用和HcCAT2的应用潜能
Xue Yan,Laguoma Yi,Lin Zheng et al.
Xue Yan et al.
The antioxidant defence system is crucial for herbivorous insects to adapt to various host plants. This study focused on catalase 2 gene (HcCAT2) to investigate the antioxidant mechanisms that underlie the ability of Hyphantria cunea to ada...
Knockout of Ku70 and Ku80 elevates homology-directed repair efficiency in Plutella xylostella [0.03%]
Plutella xylostella Ku70和Ku80的敲除增强了同源重组修复效率
Faisal Munir,Uroosa Zaheer,Muhammad Asad et al.
Faisal Munir et al.
The suppression of Ku70 and Ku80 has been verified to increase homology-directed repair (HDR) efficiency in fruit fly, silkworm and mosquito, but not in other insects. In this study, PxKu70 and PxKu80 were identified from the Plutella xylos...
