Covert and persistent infections with multiple insect‐specific viruses are common in pest fruit flies and may affect pest management strategies. Our study investigated the host effects and viral loads of cripavirus and iflavirus as persistent infections in Queensland fruit fly, and after injection and ingestion of a mixed virus suspension containing ...

We propose the regulatory particle non‐ATPase subunit 6 of the 26S proteasome as a first good promising RNA interference target candidate to control the Japanese beetle Popillia japonica. This will help to optimize a double‐stranded RNA insecticide against this priority pest with low off‐target effects on pollinators on a gene sequence‐based prediction.

Oviposition Activity of an Invasive Fruit Fly Species at Different Densities in Laboratory
Bactrocera carambolae Drew & Hancock, 1994 (Diptera: Tephritidae) is a major fruit fly pest affecting Brazil's international fruit trade due to phytosanitary restrictions. Although currently restricted to northern Brazil, little is known about its oviposition behavior. In this study, we investigated the daily oviposition pattern of B.

Draper is evolutionarily conserved across most insect species. Loss of Draper inhibits autophagy activation, delaying middle silk gland degradation in the silkworm during metamorphosis. Draper interacts with autophagy ‐ related protein 3 (ATG3) to orchestrate autophagosome formation—a process essential for silk gland degradation during the larval‐pupal
