Transcriptional Response of ABCH Transporter Genes to Host Allelochemicals in Dendroctonus armandi and Their Functional Analysis [PDF]
InsectsBark beetles depend on detoxifying enzymes to counteract the defensive terpenoids produced by host trees. Insect ABC transporters play a critical role in the detoxification of insecticides and plant secondary metabolites.

An improved lure for trapping the bark beetle Dendroctonus armandi (Coleoptera: Scolytinae) [PDF]
European Journal of Entomology, 2012 The pine bark beetle, Dendroctonus armandi, is a native pest restricted to forests in the Qinling Mountains in China. There was an outbreak of this species there that affected over 0.36 million hectares of pine forest.

Community structure of gut bacteria of Dendroctonus armandi (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) larvae during overwintering stage [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Survival rate at low temperature becomes a crucial strategy since temperature change often leads to fluctuations in the insect population. Microbes play important roles in the process of resisting low temperature. In this study, we analyzed gut bacterial

Functional Characterization of Allatostatin C (PISCF/AST) and Juvenile Hormone Acid O-Methyltransferase in Dendroctonus armandi. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2022 Allatostatin C (PISCF/AST) is a neuropeptide gene that affects juvenile hormone (JH) synthesis in the corpora allata. Juvenile hormone acid O-methyltransferase (JHAMT) is a key gene in the JH biosynthetic pathway.

Activation of the ROS/CncC Signaling Pathway Regulates Cytochrome P450 CYP4BQ1 Responsible for (+)-α-Pinene Tolerance in Dendroctonus armandi. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2022 Bark beetles mainly rely on detoxification enzymes to resist the host tree’s defense against oleoresin terpenes. Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) play an important role in the detoxification of plant allelochemicals and pesticides in insect. One P450
