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...

RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a promising strategy for species-specific and environmentally friendly pest control, offering an alternative to conventional chemical insecticides that are increasingly constrained by resistance develo...
miR-133 activates notch signalling by repressing Synaptobrevin to control ligand localisation in Drosophila [0.03%]
miR-133通过抑制Synaptobrevin激活Notch信号通路以控制果蝇配体定位
Cheng-Hsien Lee,Yun-Chien Hung,Jian-Chiuan Li et al.
Cheng-Hsien Lee et al.
Precise regulation of Notch signalling is essential for proper eye development in Drosophila. Although the core components of Notch signalling are well characterised, the mechanisms modulating ligand activity remain less understood. Here, w...

Understanding interactions between viral proteins and those of their biological vectors is essential for elucidating transmission mechanisms and identifying potential targets for disease control. Insect vectors, among the most common and si...
Identification and functional characterization of key ecdysteroid biosynthesis and signalling genes regulating moulting and metamorphosis in Dastarcus helophoroides [0.03%]
球裂斑脂蛙甲蜕皮和变态关键ecd素合成及信号转导基因的鉴定与功能分析
Tayyab Shaheen,Yan Sun,Jiali Guo et al.
Tayyab Shaheen et al.
Dastarcus helophoroides is an important ectoparasitoid used in the biological control of longhorn beetles. Its first-instar larvae actively seek hosts and progress through four larval instars before pupation. Throughout these developmental ...
Divergent immune strategies of Colorado potato beetle larvae against the entomopathogenic fungi Metarhizium robertsii and Beauveria bassiana: A comparative transcriptomic analysis [0.03%]
采用转录组学方法比较分析油壶菌罗伯茨虫草和哈氏虫草真菌对马铃薯异色瓢甲幼虫的免疫策略差异
Vadim Kryukov,Maria Antonets,Ulyana Rotskaya et al.
Vadim Kryukov et al.
The entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium robertsii are natural pathogens of the Colorado potato beetle (CPB) and hold promise for biocontrol. However, the insect's immune responses to fungal infections remain poorly und...
2-Oxocarboxylic acid metabolic pathway fuels mitochondrial ATP synthesis to power oviposition in Bactrocera dorsalis [0.03%]
二氧羧酸代谢途径通过线粒体ATP合成来驱动果实蝇的产卵能量供给
Long Ye,Qiaoling Zhang,Jingwei Yang et al.
Long Ye et al.
For many insects, oviposition is an energy-intensive behaviour. However, the metabolic mechanisms powering this process are poorly understood for many species. Here, we investigated the link between energy metabolism and oviposition in Bact...
Identification and localization of the set of serine peptidases and their homologs in the larval midgut of Tenebrio molitor L [0.03%]
黄粉虫幼虫前肠丝氨酸蛋白酶及其同源物的鉴定与定位
Nikita I Zhiganov,Valeriia F Tereshchenkova,Marina V Serebryakova et al.
Nikita I Zhiganov et al.
Peptidases play a key role in the metabolism of proteins and peptides. In this work, we studied the spectrum of midgut serine peptidases (SPs) and serine peptidase homologs (SPHs) in the IV instar larvae of the yellow mealworm Tenebrio moli...
Endosymbiont load dictates reproductive fate: Experimental validation for the bacterial dosage model in a parthenogenetic weevil (Coleoptera, Curculionidae) [0.03%]
内共生菌负荷决定生殖命运：独花子虫属叶甲（鞘翅目，曲翅亚科）孤雌生殖细菌剂量模型的实验验证
Lucia Fernandez Goya,Lucía da Cruz Cabral,Alejandra C Scannapieco et al.
Lucia Fernandez Goya et al.
In many arthropods, reproductive manipulations induced by maternally inherited symbionts appear to depend upon surpassing a bacterial density threshold. The Naupactini tribe harbours a diverse array of Neotropical weevils, many of which exh...
