Abstract: BACKGROUND The insect cuticle protects against environmental stresses such as insecticides, physical injury, dehydration and pathogenic microorganisms. Structural cuticular proteins (CPs) are the primary components of the cuticle, and are of interest for physiology-based pest… read more here.
