Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Key Genes Involved in Weevil Resistance in the Hexaploid Sweetpotato
Plants, 2021 Because weevils are the most damaging pests of sweetpotato, the development of cultivars resistant to weevil species is considered the most important aspect in sweetpotato breeding.

Aspergillus nidulans synthesize insect juvenile hormones upon expression of a heterologous regulatory protein and in response to grazing by Drosophila melanogaster larvae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Secondary metabolites are known to serve a wide range of specialized functions including communication, developmental control and defense. Genome sequencing of several fungal model species revealed that the majority of predicted secondary metabolite ...

Juvenile phase: an important phase of the life cycle in plants
Ornamental Plant Research, 2023 The juvenile phase of plants refers to the period from seed germination to the period in which they gain flowering ability. The phase is vital for the breeding of new plant varieties, the study of plant stress and immune responses, and the utilization of

Structural basis for juvenile hormone biosynthesis by the juvenile hormone acid methyltransferase [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2021 Juvenile hormone (JH) acid methyltransferase (JHAMT) is a rate-limiting enzyme that converts JH acids or inactive precursors of JHs to active JHs at the final step of JH biosynthesis in insects and thus presents an excellent target for the development of insect growth regulators or insecticides.

Hormones as adaptive control systems in juvenile fish
Biology Open, 2020 Growth is an important theme in biology. Physiologists often relate growth rates to hormonal control of essential processes. Ecologists often study growth as a function of gradients or combinations of environmental factors.
