Transcriptional expression of bursicon and novel bursicon-regulated genes in the house fly Musca domestica.

abstract：:Plant protease inhibitors (PIs) are elements of a common plant defense mechanism induced in response to herbivores. The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, a highly polyphagous lepidopteran pest, responds to various PIs in its diet by expressing genes encoding trypsins. This raises the question of whether the PI-ind...
