Identification of critical factors that significantly affect the dose-response in mosquitoes irradiated as pupae

Parasites & Vectors, 2019
Background The sterile insect technique (SIT) for use against mosquitoes consists of several steps including the production of the target species in large numbers, the separation of males and females, the sterilization of the males, and the packing ...

SRBSDV-derived small interfering RNAs modulate insect vector reproduction and viral replication in Sogatella furcifera

Communications Biology
Transmitted through insect vectors, plant viruses directly affect vector behavior and phenotype post-infection and subsequently trigger the insect innate immune pathways. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive.

Puccinia triticina avirulence protein AvrLr21 directly interacts with wheat resistance protein Lr21 to activate wheat immune response

Communications Biology
Wheat leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina (Pt), remains a constant threat to wheat production worldwide. Deployment of race-specific leaf rust (Lr) resistance genes in wheat provides effective protection against leaf rust, but often leads to ...

Rearing of Glossina morsitans morsitans tsetse flies for the sterile insect technique: evaluating the impact of irradiation and transportation during early and late-stage pupal development on the quality of emerging adults

Parasite
Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) and African animal trypanosomosis (AAT) are devastating diseases spread by tsetse flies (Glossina spp.), affecting humans and livestock, respectively.

The control of body size in insects

Developmental Biology, 2003
Control mechanisms that regulate body size and tissue size have been sought at both the cellular and organismal level. Cell-level studies have revealed much about the control of cell growth and cell division, and how these processes are regulated by nutrition.
