TcFur1, a furin 1 ortholog in Tribolium castaneum, is highly expressed in pupae and declines in adults. TcFur1 knockdown reduces oviposition but does not alter triacylglycerol levels or total lipase activity. TcFur1 knockdown increases circulating trehalose and decreases expression of insulin‐like peptides and the AKH receptor.

Detection of Sex Pheromone Components in Manduca sexta (L.) [PDF]
The ability of olfactory receptor neurons to detect female-produced sex pheromone components and a limited sample of potential host plant odours was studied by single-sensillum recordings from olfactory sensilla present on male and female antennae in Manduca sexta.

ABSTRACT The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Plutellidae: Lepidoptera), is one of the major pests of cruciferous vegetables. To control this notorious pest, the caterpillar parasitoid Diadegma insulare (Cresson) (Ichneumonidae: Hymenoptera) is the most used biocontrol agent. Efficient mass‐rearing of D.

Nutrient-dependent Steroidogenic Activity of the Prothoracic Gland in Manduca sexta [PDF]
Nutrient availability is a fundamental regulator of development in animals. Approximately twenty hours into the final feeding stage Manduca sexta, the tobacco hornworm, initiates metamorphosis as the primordia of adult-specific tissues undergo pupal ...

Floral scents and nectar attract both pollinators and other animals that may reduce the plant's fitness, and therefore put flowering plants in a challenging situation.

Sugars as Central Integrators of Plant Immunity and Stress Responses
ABSTRACT Sugars are fundamental metabolites that sustain plant growth and development, but accumulating evidence demonstrates that they also function as regulatory hubs in plant defence. In this review, we synthesise current knowledge on how carbohydrate dynamics coordinate metabolism, signalling, and structural responses to shape plant resistance ...

Temperature elevation broadens the dietary niche of an insect herbivore
The realised dietary niche in Chrysomela lapponica was the narrowest at 10°C, whereas higher temperatures (15–25°C) broadened the dietary niche by increasing preference for and survival on suboptimal host plants. Elevated temperature broadened the realised dietary niche through both direct effects on beetles and indirect effects mediated by temperature‐
