Evaluation of the susceptibility of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum, to a selection of novel biorational insecticides using an artificial diet [PDF]
, 2009 An improved technique was developed to assay the toxicity of insecticides against aphids using an artificial diet. The susceptibility of the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) (Hemiptera: Aphidoidea) was determined for a selection of novel ...

Effects of methoxyfenozide on ecdysone receptor complex expression in larval Asian gypsy moth
Open Life Sciences, 2015 As a target of insect growth regulators, the ecdysone receptor complex binds ecdysone agonists to regulate gene transcription, development, and growth.

Deep sequencing of the prothoracic gland transcriptome reveals new players in insect ecdysteroidogenesis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Ecdysteroids are steroid hormones that induce molting and determine developmental timing in arthropods. In insect larva, the prothoracic gland (PG) is a major organ for ecdysone synthesis and release.

Steroid Hormone Signaling Is Essential to Regulate Innate Immune Cells and Fight Bacterial Infection in Drosophila [PDF]
, 2013 Coupling immunity and development is essential to ensure survival despite changing internal conditions in the organism. Drosophila metamorphosis represents a striking example of drastic and systemic physiological changes that need to be integrated with ...

The steroid hormone ecdysone regulates growth rate in response to oxygen availability
Scientific Reports, 2022 In almost all animals, physiologically low oxygen (hypoxia) during development slows growth and reduces adult body size. The developmental mechanisms that determine growth under hypoxic conditions are, however, poorly understood.

Scientific Reports, 2019 Ecdysteroid hormones influence the development and reproduction of arthropods by binding a heterodimeric complex of nuclear receptors, the ecdysone receptor (EcR) and the retinoid-X-receptor/ultraspiracle (RXR/USP). Here, we report on the in vivo role(s)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.RNA interference (RNAi) technologies, host‐induced gene silencing (HIGS) and spray‐induced gene silencing (SIGS), potentially offer sustainable crop protection. However, efficacy, costs, regulatory clarity, and socio‐environmental impacts require further evaluation for broader use.
