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
