Characterization of neutral lipases revealed the tissue ‐specific triacylglycerol hydrolytic activity in Nilaparvata lugens
Forty-three lipases inNilaparvata lugens were identified, with half of them belonging to neutral lipases. The neutral lipases inN. lugens intestine lost triacylglycerol hydrolytic activity and ovary-specific neutral lipases played important roles in lipid metabolism and the reproduction ofN. lugens. AbstractThe lipid metabolism plays an essential role in the development and reproduction of insects, and lipases are important enzymes in lipid metabolism. InNilaparvata lugens, an important insect pest on rice, triacylglycerol hydrolytic activities were different among tissues, with high activity in integument, ovary, and ...

Functional evaluation of the insulin/insulin ‐like growth factor signaling pathway in determination of wing polyphenism in pea aphid
In this study, we found that pairing and solitary treatments can induce pea aphids to produce high and low percentage winged offspring, respectively. The expression level of ILP5 (insulin-like peptide 5) in maternal head was significantly higher upon solitary treatment in comparison with pairing, while silencing of ILP5 caused no obvious change in the winged offspring ratio. RNA interference-mediated knockdown ofFoxO (Forkhead transcription factor subgroup O) in stage 20 embryos significantly increased the winged offspring ratio. The results of pharmacological and quantitative polymerase chain reaction experiments showed t...

Cover Caption
An Early Cretaceous scene from the Dawangzhangzi plant assemblage in Northwestern China, showing arthropod and pathogen herbivory on a gymnosperm-dominated flora immediately before the global shift toward angiosperm-dominance. This scene displays a variety of external foliage feeding, oviposition, piercing and sucking, mining, galling, borings, and pathogens among plants and their arthropod and pathogen herbivores. The plant assemblage, part of the Yixian Flora, also exhibits evidence for pollination, mimicry, and parasitoidism, implying well-integrated trophic networks for this 125 million-year-old ecosystem (see pages 14...
