Similarity of cuticular lipids between a caterpillar and its host plant: A way to make prey undetectable for predatory ants?
(SpringerDordrechtHolanda, 2005)
Host-specific gene expression as a tool for introduction success in Naupactus parthenogenetic weevils
(Public Library of Science, 2021-07-30)
Food resource access can mediate establishment success in invasive species, and generalist herbivorous insects are thought to rely on mechanisms of transcriptional plasticity to respond to dietary variation. While asexually ...
Potato snakin‑1: an antimicrobial player of the trade‑off between host defense and development
(Springer, 2020-07)
Snakin-1 (SN1) from potato is a cysteine-rich antimicrobial peptide with high evolutionary conservation. It has 63 amino acid residues, 12 of which are cysteines capable of forming six disulfide bonds. SN1 localizes in the ...
Chalkbrood: pathogenesis and the interaction with honeybee defenses
(Mukesh Arora, 2017-01)
There are numerous threats that affect bee populations worldwide such as exposure to pesticides; genetic diversity, poor nutrition and the impact of pathogens. Between them, Ascosphaera apis is the etiological agent of ...
Mechanism and plasticity of vectors' host-seeking behavior

Not all toxic butterflies are toxic: high intra- and interspecific variation in sequestration in subtropical swallowtails
(Ecological Society of America, 2017-12-11)
Many herbivorous insects make use of plant secondary metabolites by consuming and storing these toxic compounds in their body tissue or integument, thereby obtaining chemical defense against their natural enemies. Swallowtail ...
The receptor-like kinase SlSOBIR1 is differentially modulated by virus infection but its overexpression in tobacco has no significant impact on virus accumulation
(Springer, 2015-09-25)
The role of the tomato receptor-like kinase SlSOBIR1 in antiviral defense was investigated. SlSOBIR1 was transcriptionally modulated by unrelated viruses but its ectopic expression had no effect on virus accumulation. ...
