Transcriptomic, proteomic and biochemical comparison of luminescent and non‐luminescent Keroplatinae larvae (Diptera: Keroplatidae)

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 34-47, February 2026.
Transcriptomic and proteomic comparison of luminescent O. fultoni and non‐luminescent Neoditomyia sp show that the substrate binding fraction (SBF) has a similar abundance of hexamerins and the presence of flavin‐dependent reductases. In addition to the high content of keroplatin, SBF also contains considerable amounts of riboflavin and displays ...

The Interactive Effect of Pesticides, Heat Stress, and Population on the Performance of a Mite Pest, Tetranychus Urticae

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 1, Page 56-66, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Global warming is a cause for concern and is predicted to diversely affect agricultural systems. One aspect of the predicted effects is the susceptibility of pests to chemical pesticides. It is therefore crucial to study the reaction of pests to different pesticide compounds under different temperatures in order to better predict how those ...

RNAi Regulator C3PO Promotes Arbovirus Infection in Insect Vectors

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
RNA interference (RNAi) is vital for eukaryotes to defend against virus infection. The C3PO complex takes part in RNAi but its role in regulating viral infection remains unclear. This work finds that insect C3PO facilitates arbovirus replication by degrading precursors of miRNAs, especially miR‐971‐3p.

Development of a Novel Aedes aegypti Repellent: An Integrated Approach Combining In Silico and Bioassays

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.
OBP1 plays an essential role in the behavior response of Aedes aegypti. The computational approaches employed herein suggest a compound with repellency activity in the ZINC database, which was confirmed by bioassays. ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti is the most important vector of arboviruses, which are responsible for 3.9 billion cases worldwide.
