Juvenile Hormone Biosynthesis in Insects: What Is New, What Do We Know, and What Questions Remain? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Our understanding of JH biosynthesis has significantly changed in the last years. In this review I would like to discuss the following topics: (1) the progresses in understanding the JH biosynthesis pathway. Access to genome sequences has facilitated the

Regulation of Juvenile Hormone Synthesis by 20-Hydroxyecdysone in the Yellow-fever Mosquito, Aedes aegypti [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In Aedes aegypti, development and reproduction are regulated by juvenile hormone III (JH). This master regulatory hormone is synthesized by the corpora allata (CA), a pair of endocrine glands with neural connections to the brain.

Discovery and Characterization of Guanylate Cyclase Receptors in Manduca sexta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Natriuretic peptide receptors are very important in mammals for controlling water homeostasis in the body. It is possible that during evolution, these receptors played a key role in the process, by which animals moved from the sea to the land. Until now,

Neuronal signalling molecules as targets for green peach aphid (Myzus persicae) control via RNA interference [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Green peach aphid (GPA) (Myzus persicae) is an important insect pest which causes substantial economic losses to many glasshouse and field crops. Alarmingly, GPAs are becoming resistant to many conventional insecticides, and this trend indicates that
