MetabolomicsImaginal disc growth factor maintains cuticle structure and controls melanization in the spot pattern formation of Bombyx mori

The complex stripes and patterns of insects play key roles in behavior and ecology. However, the fine-scale regulation mechanisms underlying pigment formation and morphological divergence remain largely unelucidated. Here we demonstrated that imaginal disc growth factor (IDGF) maintains cuticle s...

MetabolomicsMetabolomic Microbiome Modulations Induced by ZIF8@ZIF67 Supplementation in the Midgut of Bombyx mori
Bombyx mori is an economically crucial lepidopteran insect, and its health is closely related to the gut microbiota and metabolic status. Our previous research confirmed that metal organic frameworks nanocomposite ZIF8@ZIF67 supplementation can significantly enhance silkworm survival rates upon bact...

MetabolomicsDetoxification metabolic adaptation of Bombyx mori to artificial diet and functional study of key detoxification gene BmGSTd2

The exceptional adaptability of insects to diverse food sources is central to their survival and evolutionary success. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this rapid adaptation remain largely uncharacterized. In this study, adaptive phenotypic, transcriptomic, and metabolomic differences...

MetabolomicsBiotransformation causes the sex-specific regulation of polychlorinated biphenyls during metamorphosis of silkworm (Bombyx mori) and their effect on the silkworm development

The decline in insect populations is indisputable. Currently, the effects of persistent organic pollutants on insect populations have not been sufficiently investigated. Maternal transfer of pollutants is considered to be an inherently correct reason for sex differences in pollutant le...

TranscriptomicsMicroRNAs of Bombyx mori identified by Solexa sequencing
Background: MicroRNA (miRNA) and other small regulatory RNAs contribute to the modulation of a large number of cellular processes. We sequenced three total RNA libraries prepared from the whole body, and the anterior and posterior silk glands of Bombyx mori, with a view to expanding the repertoire o...

TranscriptomicsMicroRNA expression profiling of the fifth-instar posterior silk gland of Bombyx mori
Background: The growth and development of the posterior silk gland and the biosynthesis of the silk core protein at the fifth larval instar stage of Bombyx mori are of paramount importance for silk production. Results: Here, aided by next-generation sequencing and microarry assay, we profile 1,229 m...

TranscriptomicsMicroRNA expression profiling during the life cycle of the silkworm (Bombyx mori)
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are expressed by a wide range of eukaryotic organisms, and function in diverse biological processes. Numerous miRNAs have been identified in Bombyx mori, but the temporal expression profiles of miRNAs corresponding to each stage transition over the entire life cycle of...

MetabolomicsApolipophorin-III modulates antiviral defense in Bombyx mori: an integrated transcriptomic and lipidomic analysis of its inhibitory role against BmNPV infection.

The silkworm (Bombyx mori) is an economically important insect and a lepidopteran model organism. Controlling viral infections is crucial for the sustainable development of sericulture. Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) infection can cause large-scale mortality in silkworm populations. Ins...

GenomicsIdentification of genome wide targets of the hox protein Ultrabithorax (Ubx) in larval wing buds of Bombyx mori (Daizo)
Amongst the various different insect groups, there is remarkable diversity in the number and size of wings. However the development of the basic body plan in insects is similar to a large extent. The genes of the hox complex regulate various pathways to bring about the development or modification of...

TranscriptomicsMicroRNAs show diverse and dynamic expression patterns in multiple tissues of Bombyx mori
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) repress target genes at the post-transcriptional level, and function in the development and cell-lineage pathways of host species. Tissue-specific expression of miRNAs is highly relevant to their physiological roles in the corresponding tissues. However, to date, few m...
