The role of 3 mitochondrial complex I gene in host expansion of Bactrocera tau was verified by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system. A stable homogenous strain (Btndufa7‐/‐) of B.tau was established after silencing Ndufa7. The reduced size of larvae and pupae of Ndufa7 knockout strain was first found.Then different levels of fitness and relative expression ...

Despite the minimal annual temperature variation and the widespread distribution of potential year‐round habitats in Ghana, the migratory potential of the local fall armyworm remains strong and is indistinguishable from that of the fall armyworm in China, which undergo seasonal migration.

The Classification of the Pupae of the Ceratocampidæ and Hemileucidæ
The pupae belonging to the superfamily Saturnioidea may be identified by the following characteristics: Fifth and sixth abdominal segments free in both sexes; body surface hard and firm, always with setae, but these rarely long enough to be observed with the unaided eye; face-parts never with distinct sutures; antennal suture obsolete; labial palpi or ...

We report three ca. 100 million‐year‐old lacewing larvae with extraordinarily large stemmata. One of them additionally has a very wide head, which represents a previously unknown morphology. The arrangement of the stemmata indicates stereoscopic vision in these predatory larvae.

This study investigates the potential of enhancing the resistance of Glossina palpalis gambiensis to Trypanosoma brucei gambiense to mitigate the transmission of Human African Trypanosomiasis. We successfully cloned genes encoding proteins of interest in Sodalis strains, resulting in recombinant Sodalis (recSodalis) that were micro‐injected into the L3

Exploring marking methods for the predatory hoverfly Sphaerophoria rueppellii (Diptera: Syrphidae)
As important pollinators and predators of aphids, hoverflies play an important role in ecosystems. This study focuses on identifying the best marking technique for the model species Sphaerophoria rueppellii that can be used to track hoverfly feeding and oviposition sites, evaluating three methods: rubidium (RbCl), fluorescein, and fluorescent dusts ...

The transformer gene controls sexual development in Drosophila suzukii
The transformer gene plays a key role in the genetic pathway for sexual development in Drosophila suzukii Abstract The genetic network of sex determination in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster was investigated in great detail. Such knowledge not only advances our understanding of the evolution and regulation of sexual dimorphism in insects ...

Effect of Spiroplasma infection on the mating behavior of Glossina fuscipes fuscipes
Abstract Tsetse flies are insects of significant public health and zoonotic importance as they are the main vectors of African trypanosomes. To date, an effective vaccine is unavailable and efforts to limit the spread of the disease primarily rely on controlling the tsetse populations.
