DOI: 10.1016/j.biocontrol.2019.104003
Abstract: Abstract Understanding insect performance on nontarget native plants is critical in the risk assessment of weed biological control agents. A combination of laboratory and field host tests could help us better understand how abiotic and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2017.05.012
Abstract: The steroid hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), the major developmental hormone in insects, controls all the developmental transitions including ecdysis and metamorphosis. In our study with last larval stages of the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum, dsRNA-mediated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ee/nvae045
Abstract: Helicoverpa zea Boddie (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is an important pest in many crops in the southern United States. Upon reaching the final larval instar, H. zea quests for a pupation site in the soil. Pupae are… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jme/tjy054
Abstract: Abstract Insects display different patterns of development, and blow flies have one of the most specialized patterns of intrapuparial development of all. In forensic entomology, pupae can be used as a tool to estimate the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1744-7917.70096
Abstract: In insects, metamorphosis and reproduction are coordinated by juvenile hormone (JH) and 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E). A transcription factor Taiman (Tai) serves as a coactivator of the functional 20E receptor and heterodimerizes with JH receptor Methoprene-tolerant (Met)… read more here.
