The genome-wide transcriptional regulatory landscape of ecdysone in the silkworm

Epigenetics & Chromatin, 2018
The silkworm, Bombyx mori, a typical representative of metamorphic insects, is of great agricultural and economic importance. The steroid hormone ecdysone (20-hydroxyecdysone, 20E) is the central regulator of insect developmental transitions, and its ...

Prioritising research on endocrine disruption in the marine environment: a global perspective

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 848-868, April 2026.
ABSTRACT A healthy ocean is a crucial life support system that regulates the global climate, is a source of oxygen and supports major economic activities. A vast and understudied biodiversity from micro‐ to macro‐organisms is integral to ocean health.

MicroRNA expression profiling during the life cycle of the silkworm () [PDF]

, 2009
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are expressed by a wide range of eukaryotic organisms, and function in diverse biological processes. Numerous miRNAs have been identified in Bombyx mori, but the temporal expression profiles of miRNAs corresponding to each ...

Epitranscriptomics as a Candidate Universal Modulator of Dormancy Transitions

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Dormancy is presented as a conserved, reversible survival program in which epitranscriptomic RNA modifications are proposed to provide a rapid, energy‐efficient layer that establishes, maintains, and terminates the state by modulating mRNA stability, translation, and localization.

Functional male accessory glands and fertility in Drosophila require novel ecdysone receptor

PLoS Genetics, 2017
In many insects, the accessory gland, a secretory tissue of the male reproductive system, is essential for male fertility. Male accessory gland is the major source of proteinaceous secretions, collectively called as seminal proteins (or accessory gland ...

Plant Virus‐Induced Inheritable Apoptosis Drives Reproductive Costs in Female Insect Vectors to Balance Viral Biparental Transmission

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, 27 January 2026.
Rice gall dwarf virus (RGDV), transmitted biparentally by leafhopper vector to their offspring, exploits the capsid protein to induce inheritable ovarian apoptosis via insulin‐driven PI3K/AKT/FoxO signaling axis. This mechanism enhances infection but reduces female reproductive fitness, causing inefficient maternal transmission.

Silencing of two insulin receptor genes disrupts nymph-adult transition of alate brown citrus aphid [PDF]

, 2017
Insulin receptors play key roles in growth, development, and polymorphism in insects. Here, we report two insulin receptor genes (AcInR1 and AcInR2) from the brown citrus aphid, Aphis (Toxoptera) citricidus.
