Effective target genes for RNA interference‐based management of the cabbage stem flea beetle

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 527-539, August 2025.
An oral RNAi screen consisting of 27 dsRNAs identified effective target genes for RNAi‐based pest control in the cabbage stem flea beetle The most effective target genes were involved in proteasomal pathways or gene expression, and their sequences were subjected to in silico off‐target analysis Knock‐down of some effective target genes also inhibited ...

The salivary gland transcriptome of Varroa destructor reveals suitable targets for RNAi‐based mite control

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 540-551, August 2025.
RNAseq and differential expression analysis identified 15 salivary gland genes encoding secreted proteins with putative anti‐bacterial, anti‐fungal, cytolytic, digestive and immunosuppressive function. The three most highly transcribed genes were selected to study their functional importance by reverse genetics, using a non‐invasive approach of dsRNA ...

The Molecular Properties of Honey Bee Acetylcholinesterase Reveal Opportunities to Avoid Off‐Target Effects in Insecticide Discovery

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 31, Issue 38, July 8, 2025.
The structure, dynamics, and kinetics of the essential enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) of honey bee have been studied and compared to AChEs in mosquitoes and mammalians. Profiling of the active sites with selected substrates and AChE inhibitors revealed dramatic differences between the species.

Extracting Cardiac Activity for Arthropods Using Digital Cameras: Insights From a Pilot Study

open access: yesArchives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 119, Issue 3, July 2025.
Arthropods are vital to ecosystems and are among the most diverse and abundant organisms on Earth. Understanding their physiological processes, including cardiac activity, is crucial for assessing their health, behavior, and responses to environmental changes.
