Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2022 Recently, it has been reported that a gene (PEN1) in Arabidopsis thaliana is highly resistant to Plutella xylostella. We screened all the homologous genes of PEN1 in Arabidopsis thaliana and found that the motif of these genes was very conserved.

Scientific Reports, 2021 Insecticides, especially pyrethroids, are the most important in the insect pest control and preventing insect vector-borne human diseases. However, insect pests, including mosquitoes, have developed resistance in the insecticides that used against them ...

Non-Coding RNA, 2015 Blood feeding in Anopheles stephensi initiates a cascade of events that modulate several physiological functions in the mosquito. The midgut epithelium activates several of its molecules, most important among these being microRNAs, which regulate some of

CopE and TLR6 RNAi-mediated tomato resistance to western flower thrips
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023 The western flower thrips (WFT; Frankliniella occidentalis) is a mesophyll cell feeder that damages many crops. Management of WFT is complex due to factors such as high fecundity, short reproduction time, ability to feed on a broad range of host plants ...

, 2022 Abstract Studies to-date have shown the availability of enough genetic diversity in the wheat genetic resources (land races, wild relatives, cultivars, etc.) for resistance to the most economically important insect pests such as Hessian fly, Russian wheat aphid, greenbug, and Sun pest. Many R genes – including 37 genes for Hessian fly,

Developmental Regulation of Mi-Mediated Aphid Resistance Is Independent of Mi-1.2 Transcript Levels
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2004 Mi-1.2, a member of the intracellular, nucleotide-binding site-leucine-rich repeat family of resistance genes, confers resistance in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) against both root-feeding nematodes and leaf-feeding aphids.
