Cuticle is not only critical for protecting insects from noxious stimuli but is also involved in a variety of metabolic activities. Cuticular proteins (CPs) affect cuticle structure and mechanical properties during insect growth, reproduction, and environmental adaptation. Here, we describe the identification and characterization of a member of the RR‐1 subfamily of CPs with an R&R consensus (CPR)...
BACKGROUND
Many insect cytochrome P450 proteins (CYPs) are involved in the metabolic detoxification of exogenous compounds such as plant toxins and insecticides. Tribolium castaneum, the red flour beetle, is a major agricultural pest that damages stored grains and cereal products. With the completion of the sequencing of its genome, two T. castaneum species‐specific CYP genes, CYP4BN6, and CYP6BQ11...
Latrophilin of Tribolium castaneum (Tclph) has been reported to play crucial roles in growth, development and reproduction. However, the regulatory mechanism of Tclph associated with these physiology processes is unknown. Thus, the global transcriptome profiles between RNAi treated (ds-Tclph) and control larvae of T. castaneum were analyzed by RNA-sequencing. Totally, 274 differentially expressed...
