DNA methylase 1 influences temperature responses and development in the invasive pest Tuta absoluta
Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 503-515, October 2024.Dnmt1 regulates the adaptability of tomato leaf miner to temperature. TaDnmt1 RNAi impacts the larval growth and development, resulting in a significant increase (57%) in larval mortality and decrease in pupation (49.3%) and pluming (50.9%). The rapid geographic expansion of Tuta absoluta infestation is closely associated with TaDnmt1‐mediated ...

Viral diversity and co‐evolutionary dynamics across the ant phylogeny
Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 19, October 2024.Abstract Knowledge of viral biodiversity within insects, particularly within ants, is extremely limited with only a few environmental viruses from invasive ant species identified to date. This study documents and explores the viral communities in ants.
