Molecular bases of insect odorant receptor function: specificity and evolution
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 1036-1049, April 2026.ABSTRACT Insect odorant receptors (ORs) are a class of chemoreceptors that insects use to detect volatile cues in their environment. In recent years, major advances in the field of structural biology have made it possible to obtain the first structures of insect ORs.

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated deletion of kmo in Spodoptera exigua abolished 8‐HQA production, disrupted gut microbial homeostasis, and promoted Enterococcus dominance in gut and oral secretion. Mutants exhibited impaired growth, delayed development, and increased susceptibility to Bacillus thuringiensis, highlighting a conserved role of the kynurenine pathway ...
