Graphene oxide enhances aphid resistance in sorghum via the miR319‐SbTCP7‐SbLOX3 Pathway

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 8, Page 3164-3176, August 2025.
Summary The aphid (Melanaphis sacchari) has emerged as a formidable pest, devastating sorghum plants and highlighting the need for sustainable management strategies. Graphene oxide (GO), as a novel material, has garnered attention for its use in crop cultivation and management, but its effects on biotic stresses remain elusive. Here, we used 10 mg/L GO

Comparative transcriptomics reveals different profiles between diflubenzuron‐resistant and ‐susceptible phenotypes of the mosquito Culex pipiens

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 6, Page 3370-3377, June 2025.
Comparative gene expression analysis between susceptible and diflubenzuron‐resistant individuals of the mosquito Culex pipiens revealed transcriptional changes of multiple genes associated with insecticide detoxification and cuticle synthesis. Abstract Background Chitin‐synthesis inhibitors (CSIs) represent a major tool in vector control. The intensive

Is the Horaana strain of the Culex pipiens group Culex pipiens pallens?

open access: yesJournal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 1989
The validity of the Horaana strain of the Culex pipiens group as Cx. pipiens pallens was studied. Judging from the fourth instar characters and morphology of the adult male genitalia, this laboratory strain is now out of the range of ordinary Cx.p. pallens in Japan, and must be identified as Cx. p. quinquefasciatus.

Wing geometric morphometrics and COI barcoding of Culex pipiens subgroup in the Republic of Korea

open access: yesScientific Reports
Two members of the Culex pipiens subgroup, Culex pallens and Culex pipiens f. molestus, are known to occur in the Republic of Korea (ROK). These species exhibit morphologically similar features and are challenging to distinguish below the species level ...

Strong resistance to β‐cyfluthrin in a strain of the beetle Alphitobius diaperinus: a de novo transcriptome analysis

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 209-226, February 2025.
An RNA‐Seq approach, enhanced by biochemical analyses, established that one of the main reasons for the high resistance to β‐cyfluthrin in an Alphitobius diaperinus strain comes from high basal activities for detoxification enzymes. Abstract The lesser mealworm, Alphitobius diaperinus, is an invasive tenebrionid beetle and a vector of pathogens. Due to
