A Method for Identification of Biotype-Specific Salivary Effector Candidates of Aphid

Insects, 2023
Polyphagous aphids often consist of host-specialized biotypes that perform poorly in non-native hosts. The underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Host-specialized biotypes may express biotype-specific salivary effectors or elicitors that determine aphid ...

Temperature warming strengthens the mutualism between ghost ants and invasive mealybugs

Scientific Reports, 2017
Although the exogenous forces that directly affect the mutualisms between ants and honeydew-producing hemipterans have been well documented, few studies have been focused on the impacts of environmental warming on ant-hemipteran interactions.

Nanopesticides: Promising Future in Sustainable Pest Management

JOURNAL OF ADVANCED APPLIED SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, 2023
Insects form the most successful and diverse group of animals present on earth today. Humans have shared a complex relationship with the insects. Though insects are indispensable as pollinators of crops yet at the same time they act as major destroyer of grains, pulses and fruits in the fields along with their post- harvest storage.

Functional Analysis of Two Odorant-Binding Proteins, MaltOBP9 and MaltOBP10, in Monochamus alternatus Hope

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) are important for the perception of chemical signals by insects. Effective pest management strategies can be developed by understanding the host location mechanism and the physiological functions of OBPs in olfactory ...
