Adaptive evolution following colonization can affect the impact of invasive species. The fall webworm (FWW) invaded China 40 years ago through a single introduction event involving a severe bottleneck and subsequently diverged into two genetic groups. The well‐recorded invasion history of FWW, coupled with a clear pattern of genetic divergence, provides an opportunity to investigate whether there...
Paired box (Pax) genes are highly conserved throughout evolution, and the Pax protein is an important transcription factor of embryonic development. The Pax gene Bmgsb is expressed in the silk glands of silkworm, but its biological functions remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the expression pattern of Bmgsb in the silk gland and explore its functions using RNA interference (RNAi). Here,...
