The Role of Insect Cytochrome P450s in Mediating Insecticide Resistance
Agriculture, 2022 In many organisms, cytochrome P450 enzymes are the primary detoxifying enzymes. Enhanced P450 activity can be mediated by the emergence of new genes, increased transcription due to mutations in the promoter regions, changes in enzyme structures and ...

Differences in microbiota between two multilocus lineages of the sugarcane Aphid (Melanaphis sacchari) in the continental United States [PDF]
, 2020 The sugarcane aphid (SCA), Melanaphis Sacchari (Zehntner) (Hemiptera: Aphididae), has been considered an invasive pest of sugarcane in the continental United States since 1977. Then, in 2013, SCA abruptly became a serious pest of U.S.

Can Insects Develop Resistance to Insect Pathogenic Fungi? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Microevolutionary adaptations and mechanisms of fungal pathogen resistance were explored in a melanic population of the Greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella. Under constant selective pressure from the insect pathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana, 25(th) generation larvae exhibited significantly enhanced resistance, which was specific to this pathogen ...

Study on the effects of Bt gene on agronomic traits of rice using near isogenic lines
浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2005 With Milyang 46 (MY46) taken as recurrent line and a transgenic Bt rice (KMD1) as donor line, an isogenic line with Bt gene (RIMY46) was constructed by consecutive backcrosses and selections with GUS reaction as a marker.
