Cytochrome P450 Genes Expressed in Phasmatodea Midguts [PDF]
Cytochrome P450s (CYPs) are xenobiotic detoxification genes found in most eukaryotes, and linked in insects to the tolerance of plant secondary chemicals and insecticide resistance. The number and diversity of CYP clans, families, and subfamilies that an

Three Complete Mitochondrial Genomes of Orestes guangxiensis, Peruphasma schultei, and Phryganistria guangxiensis (Insecta: Phasmatodea) and Their Phylogeny [PDF]
Insects of the order Phasmatodea are mainly distributed in the tropics and subtropics and are best known for their remarkable camouflage as plants. In this study, we sequenced three complete mitochondrial genomes from three different families: Orestes ...

Nine Mitochondrial Genomes of Phasmatodea with Two Novel Mitochondrial Gene Rearrangements and Phylogeny [PDF]
The classification of stick and leaf insects (Order Phasmatodea) is flawed at various taxonomic ranks due to a lack of robust phylogenetic relationships and convergent morphological characteristics.

Independent wing reductions and losses among stick and leaf insects (Phasmatodea), supported by new Cretaceous fossils in amber [PDF]
Background Phasmatodea (stick and leaf insects) play a central role on the debate regarding wing reduction and loss, and its wings are putative reacquisition from secondarily wingless ancestors based solely on extant species.

Insight into the Phylogenetic Relationships of Phasmatodea and Selection Pressure Analysis of Phraortes liaoningensis Chen & He, 1991 (Phasmatodea: Lonchodidae) Using Mitogenomes [PDF]
Stick and leaf insects are a group among the Insecta that are famous for their extraordinary mimicry ability. Since the establishment of the Phasmatodea, their internal classification has been constantly revised.

Across desert and island: Phylogeny of two thin stick insects from China with taxonomic insights into the clade “Gratidiini II” (Phasmatodea, Clitumninae) [PDF]
Extensive convergence led to poorly understood systematics of stick insects (Phasmatodea) in the past. Both Sceptrophasma bituberculatum and Macellina souchongia belong to the tribe Gratidiini of the family Bacillidae, but they were separated by about ...
