Insect I‐Type Lysozymes Function as Antiviral Proteases by Forming Biomolecular Condensates
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Upon rice viral infection, the insect vector activates the Toll–MyD88–Dorsal signaling cascade, inducing i‐type lysozyme (Lyz‐I1) expression. Lyz‐I1 functions as an antiviral protease through its conserved catalytic dyad Glu/Asp (E/D), mediating cleavage of viral proteins at specific Lys (K) residues.

BMC Genomics, 2016 Aphids are phloem-feeding insects that cause significant economic losses to agriculture worldwide. While feeding and probing these insects deliver molecules, called effectors, inside their host to enable infestation.

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.Gene duplication has been shown to drive molecular evolution, with dietary pressures expanding detoxification genes across species. In humans, CYP2D6 gene duplications enhance alkaloid and drug metabolism, reflecting ancient dietary adaptations. Similarly, tobacco‐feeding aphids amplify CYP6CY3 for nicotine and insecticide resistance, and as recently ...

Identification of Conditions for Successful Aphid Control by Ladybirds in Greenhouses
Insects, 2017 As part of my research on the mass production and augmentative release of ladybirds, I reviewed the primary research literature to test the prediction that ladybirds are effective aphid predators in greenhouses. Aphid population reduction exceeded 50% in

Ecography, EarlyView.Global change will impact the distribution and abundance of predators through a combination of abiotic variables, such as temperature; and biotic variables, such as prey availability. However, there is a poor understanding of how distribution projections with biotic variables differ from those with abiotic variables, particularly in resource‐limited ...
