abstract：:Insect chitinases are a multigene family that is encoded by a rather large and diverse group of genes. The main function of chitinases is to digest the chitin contained in tissues such as the cuticles and gut lining during molting. In this study, we examined the role of a chitinase (SeChi) and a bacterial type chitina...
