PHYSIOLOGICAL AND TRANSCRIPTIONAL IMMUNE RESPONSES OF A NON-MODEL ARTHROPOD TO INFECTION WITH DIFFERENT ENTOMOPATHOGENIC GROUPS

Physiological and transcriptional immune responses of a non-model arthropod to infection with different entomopathogenic groups

Insect immune responses to multiple pathogen groups including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and entomopathogenic nematodes have traditionally been documented in model insects such as Drosophila melanogaster, or medically important insects such as Aedes aegypti.Despite their potential importance in understanding the efficacy of pathogens as biological c

Genetic mapping and molecular characterization of the delayed green gene dg in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus)

Leaf color mutants are common in higher plants that can be used as markers in crop breeding and are important tools in understanding regulatory mechanisms of chlorophyll biosynthesis and chloroplast development.Genetic analysis was performed by evaluating F1, F2 and BC1 populations derived from two parental lines (Charleston gray with green leaf co
