Tetraopes Milkweed Beetle Genomes Elucidate the Adaptive Basis of a Temperate Coevolutionary Radiation

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The coevolutionary radiation of 27 species of Tetraopes longhorned beetles and their Asclepias milkweed hosts represents a classic example of adaptive evolution driven by plant chemical defences and herbivore counteradaptations. Investigations to date, however, have focused on a single species, Tetraopes tetrophthalmus, which feeds on the ...

Target capture efficiently resolves the long‐standing taxonomic dead end of Diachrysia moths

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.
We demonstrate the high efficiency of the target capture method in elucidating the taxonomy of the cryptic species of Diachrysia chrysitis and D. stenochrysis. Phylogenomic and population structure analyses reveal clear nuclear divergence and asymmetric allele sharing, consistent with historical gene flow rather than recent hybridization.

Functional characterization of a novel protein-coding circular RNA, circRNA_1193, from the mAAP gene in silkworm and its role in antiviral defense against BmCPV

mBio
A novel circular RNA, circRNA_1193, which originates from the membrane alanyl aminopeptidase-like gene in silkworms, was explored for its potential function and regulatory mechanism.

Ampullae infection of the malpighian tubules of Bombyx mori by Alphabaculovirus

Bioscience Journal, 2017
Alphabaculovirus is a genus of the entomopathogenic virus, whose species Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) infects the silkworm, Bombyx mori, which is an important insect in the sericulture industry. A geographic isolate of BmNPV was identified in

Identification of sulfakinin receptor regulating feeding behavior and hemolymph trehalose homeostasis in the silkworm, Bombyx mori

Scientific Reports
Feeding behavior, the most fundamental physiological activity, is controlled by two opposing groups of factors, orexigenic and anorexigenic factors. The sulfakinin family, an insect analogue of the mammalian satiety factor cholecystokinin (CCK), has been

Transgenic breeding of anti-Bombyx mori L. nuclear polyhedrosis virus silkworm Bombyx mori.

Acta biochimica et biophysica Sinica, 2008
Silkworm strains resistant to Bombyx mori L. nuclear polyhedrosis virus were obtained through transgenic experiments. piggyBac transposon with an A3 promoter were randomly inserted into the silkworm, driving the enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) reporter gene into the silkworm genome.

BV/ODV-E26 is a conserved baculoviral inhibitory factor for optimizing viral virulence in lepidopteran hosts

iScience
Summary: Alphabaculoviruses induce abnormal behavior in lepidopteran larval hosts. A baculoviral gene, bv/odv-e26, is crucial for behavioral manipulation in Bombyx mori larvae by Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV).
