Circabidian rhythm of sex pheromone reception in a scarab beetle Open
Animals have endogenous clocks that regulate their behavior and physiology. These clocks rely on environmental cues (time givers) that appear approximately every 24 h due to the Earth's rotation; thus, most insects exhibit a circadian rhyt…

Implication of antioxidant and detoxifying enzymes in the resistance of Holotrichia parallela larvae to EPN-Bt infection Open
Combining the entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs), Heterorhabditis beicherriana LF strain and Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) HBF-18 strain is a practical strategy to manage the larvae of Holotrichia parallela Motschulsky. However, the intrinsic…

Evidence of the Involvement of a Plus-C Odorant-Binding Protein HparOBP14 in Host Plant Selection and Oviposition of the Scarab Beetle Holotrichia parallela Open
Holotrichia parallela is one of the agriculturally important scarab beetle pests in China. In this study, HparOBP14 was cloned, which is the most abundantly expressed among the OBP genes in the legs of female H. parallela adults. Sequence …

Immune-related genes of the larval Holotrichia parallela in response to entomopathogenic nematodes Heterorhabditis beicherriana LF Open
Background Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) emerge as compatible alternatives to conventional insecticides in controlling Holotrichia parallela larvae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae). However, the immune responses of H. parallela against EPNs …

Flight muscles degenerate by programmed cell death after migration in the wheat aphid, Sitobion avenae Open
Objective Previous studies showed that flight muscles degenerate after migration in some aphid species; however, the underlying molecular mechanism remains virtually unknown. In this study, using the wheat aphid, Sitobion avenae , we aim t…

Identification and comparison of candidate odorant receptor genes in the olfactory and non-olfactory organs of Holotrichia oblita Faldermann by transcriptome analysis Open
A sophisticated olfactory system is part of the explanation for the prominence of insects among animals because of the essential roles of the olfactory system in foraging, host seeking, mating, ovipositing and avoiding toxic substances. In…

Identification of candidate chemosensory genes by transcriptome analysis in Loxostege sticticalis Linnaeus Open
Loxostege sticticalis Linnaeus is an economically important agricultural pest, and the larvae cause great damage to crops, especially in Northern China. However, effective and environmentally friendly chemical methods for controlling this …
