Exploring the impact of a chemical disinfectant and an antiviral drug for RNA virus management in the Mediterranean fruit fly mass‐rearing

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Mediterranean fruit fly is an agricultural pest of a wide variety of fruit crops. An effective method to counteract them in the field is through the application of the sterile insect technique, which requires the mass‐production of sterile males.

Microinjection‐enabled gene silencing in first instar larvae of western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, reveals vital genes for larval survival

Insect Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces a microinjection technique to deliver dsRNA into the hemolymph of first instar larval thrips (L1s) via the foreleg coxa, enhancing survival rates by minimizing internal tissue damage. Significant knockdown of V‐ATPase‐B, CYP3653A2, and ApoLp‐II/I was achieved, with silencing of CYP3653A2 or ApoLp‐II/I increasing larval mortality ...

Role of mitochondrial complex I genes in host plant expansion of Bactrocera tau (Tephritidae: Diptera) by CRISPR/Cas9 system

Insect Science, EarlyView.
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 ...

High migratory potential of fall armyworm in West Africa despite stable temperatures and widely available year‐round habitats

Insect Science, EarlyView.
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.

Cretaceous lacewing larvae with binocular vision demonstrate the convergent evolution of sophisticated simple eyes

Insect Science, EarlyView.
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.
