Identification of an inositol-3-phosphate synthase 1-B gene (AccIPS1-B) from Apis cerana cerana and its role in abiotic stress. [PDF]
Cell Stress Chaperones, 2019 Inositol phosphate synthase (IPS) is a rate-limiting enzyme in myo-inositol biosynthesis, which can regulate stress responses in plants and animals. However, there are few studies on the function of IPS in insects, especially in Apis cerana cerana.

Agxt2l-mediated glycerophospholipid metabolism in trophocytes explains Apis mellifera queen’s higher oviposition over A. cerana [PDF]
Communications BiologyApis mellifera and Apis cerana are two important honey bee species widely kept and studied. But their queens differ greatly in egg-laying capacity. To determine the mechanisms of this difference, we compare gene expression, chromatin accessibility and ...
