Silencing of Two Insulin Receptor Genes Disrupts Nymph-Adult Transition of Alate Brown Citrus Aphid
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017 Insulin receptors play key roles in growth, development, and polymorphism in insects. Here, we report two insulin receptor genes (AcInR1 and AcInR2) from the brown citrus aphid, Aphis (Toxoptera) citricidus.

ChemBioChem, EarlyView.The discovery of a terpene synthase of insect origin that makes the apparently cryptic product nephthenol from geranylgeranyl diphosphate sheds light on hidden biosynthetic potential. Populations of the sandfly, Lutzomyia longipalpis, use the diterpene sobralene as a sex/aggregation pheromone, which is likely produced in the insect through the activity

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.The Tianfu 22 (TF22) variety was identified as resistant to thrips based on field screening carried out over two consecutive years. Metabolomic profiling showed that thrip‐infested TF22 leaves exhibited differentially accumulated metabolites, particularly enriched in phenylpropanoid and secondary metabolite biosynthesis.

The women honoured in flowering plant genera: From myth to reality
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Many flowering plant genera are named for people, but there is a gender gap in this naming, with only 6% of eponyms honouring women. Here we explore this gap by examining in detail women for whom plant genera are named. Our open shared dataset serves to make women honoured in plant genera more discoverable, resulting in further impact by allowing ...
