Regulation of Juvenile Hormone on Summer Diapause of Geleruca daurica and Its Pathway Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Juvenile hormone (JH) signaling plays an important role in regulation of reproductive diapause in insects. However, we have little understanding of the effect of JH on gene expression at the transcriptome level in diapause. Galeruca daurica is a new pest in the Inner Mongolia grasslands with obligatory summer diapause in the adult stage. Topical application of a JH analog methoprene at the pre-diapause stage delayed the adults entering diapause and inhibited lipid accumulation whereas it did not during diapause. Using Illumina sequencing technology and bioinformatics tools, 54 and 138 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected at 1 and 2 d after treatment, respectively. The KEGG analysis showed that the DEGs were mainly enriched in the metabolism pathways. qRT-PCR analysis indicat
