Project description:P. citri mealybugs cause severe damage in citrus production. We aimed at indentifying genes involved in mealybug sex pheromone biosynthesis. As these should be expressed in virgin females and are presumably downregulated after mating, we looked at genes differentially expressed between mated and virgin females.
Project description:ChIP-seq experiment of transcription factor NFAT in Asian citrus psyllid Diaphorina citri. This experiment will figure out what gene was transcripted by NFAT in Diaphorina citri
Project description:The citrus red mite, Panonychus citri, is a major pest on citrus all around the world. Mitochondrial Electron Transport Inhibitors of complex I (METI-I) acaricides such as fenpyroximate have been used extensively to control P. citri populations, which resulted in multiple reports of METI-I resistant populations in the field. In this study, gene expression profile differences between METI-I resistant P. citri populations (Lahijan, Ramsar and Sari) and a susceptible P. citri population (Rasht) from Iran were compared using Illumina RNAseq.
