Enabled by recently available genomic resources for bumblebees, nano LC-MS/MS based proteomics was conducted to characterise the queen haemolymph proteome. The resulting mass spectrometry data were also utilised in a proteogenomic capacity to identify proteins missing from official gene sets and to ...
We report small RNA sequencing of the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae. The nematodes were grown in liquid culture in homogenates of pig kidney/fat and infective juveniles were gathered. Then Galleria mellonella insect haemolymph was added to simulate insect infection, control nemat...
Experiment was designed to study the effect of Deformed wing virus (DWV) and the mite Varroa destructor on global gene expression using microarray transcriptional profiling in developing worker honeybee (Apis mellifera). Newly hatched bee larvae (day 3 of bee development) were transferred from a Var...
Unraveling the role of male gonads and haemolymph in cantharidin-exuding Lydus trimaculatus and Mylabris variabilis (Coleoptera: Meloidae): a comparative transcriptomics approach
INTRODUCTION: The aphid Rhopalosiphum padi L. is a vector of Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) in wheat and other economically important cereal crops. Increased atmospheric CO2 has been shown to alter plant growth and metabolism, enhancing BYDV disease in wheat. However, the bioch...
