Nadja Verspagen et al.
There is a growing interest in the physiology underpinning heat tolerance of ectotherms and their responses to the ongoing rise in temperature. However, there is no consensus about the underlying physiological mechanisms. According to "the ...
Molecular identification, expression and function analysis of peroxidasin in Chilo suppressalis [0.03%]
二化螟过氧化酶基因的分子鉴定、表达及功能分析
Chun-Ping Ma,Zi-Mu Guo,Feng-Li Zhang et al.
Chun-Ping Ma et al.
Peroxidasin plays a unique role in the formation and stability of extracellular matrix (ECM) in the animal kingdom; however, it was only characterized in Diptera, not in other insect orders. In this study peroxidasin (CsPxd) was first ident...
Identification of four caspase genes from Spodoptera exigua (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) and their regulations toward different apoptotic stimulations [0.03%]

Giovanni Benelli,Renato Ricciardi,Donato Romano et al.
Giovanni Benelli et al.
Campoplex capitator is an ichneumonid parasitoid with a narrow host range, comprising grapevine moth pests. Despite being considered one of the possible candidates for biocontrol of Lobesia botrana, knowledge about its biology is limited an...
Feeding behavior explains the different effects of cabbage on MEAM1 and MED cryptic species of Bemisia tabaci [0.03%]
取食行为解释了菜青虫对Bemisia tabaci MEAM1和MED隐存种不同影响的原因
Jie Hu,Jin-Jian Yang,Bai-Ming Liu et al.
Jie Hu et al.
MEAM1 (Middle East-Asia Minor 1, "B" biotype) and MED (Mediterranean, "Q" biotype) are the two most destructive cryptic species of the Bemisia tabaci complex on the planet. Our previous studies have shown that MEAM1 outcompetes MED on cabba...

Reflex bleeding is an important antipredator defense mechanism in Coccinellidae. We examined the costs of reflex bleeding in larval and adult stages of the ladybird beetle Harmonia axyridis on offspring fitness and reproductive performance ...
Genomic divergences between the two polyphagous Spodoptera relatives provide cues for successful invasion of the fall armyworm [0.03%]
两种多食性的Spodoptera物种之间的基因组差异为Fall Armyworm的成功入侵提供线索
Yong Cui,Yan-Dong Ren,Mo Lyu et al.
Yong Cui et al.
The fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda recently invaded China, ravaging crops in many provinces. Deciphering the possible genetic basics for its successful invasion is critical for innovative and specific control for this gluttonous pest. ...
Signal transducer and activator of transcription is involved in the expression regulation of ecdysteroid-induced insulin-like growth factor-like peptide in the pupal wing disc of silkworm, Bombyx mori [0.03%]

Xiao-Juan Zhang,Dong-Dong Li,Guan-Feng Xu et al.
Xiao-Juan Zhang et al.
In insects, 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and insulin-like growth factor-like peptides (IGFLPs) regulate the development of imaginal discs. However, how IGFLPs are up-regulated to impact the development of the pupal wing disc is still unclear. I...
