TL;DR: Despite a large variation in the data, trends that are found are that RNAi is particularly successful in the family Saturniidae and in genes involved in immunity and that gene expression in epidermal tissues seems to be most difficult to silence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two genomes of highly polyphagous lepidopteran pests (Spodoptera frugiperda, Noctuidae) with different host-plant ranges

TL;DR: Signs of positive selection in genes involved in chemoreception, detoxification and digestion, and copy number variation in the two latter gene families are found, suggesting an adaptive role for structural variation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insect-resistant transgenic plants in a multi-trophic context
Astrid T. Groot,Marcel Dicke +1 more
TL;DR: The effects of insect- resistant crops and insect-resistant transgenic crops, especially Bt crops, from a food web perspective are summarized and target herbivores, non-target herbivore, pollinators, parasitoids and predators are distinguished.
Journal ArticleDOI
Allelic variation in a fatty-acyl reductase gene causes divergence in moth sex pheromones
Jean-Marc Lassance,Astrid T. Groot,Marjorie A. Liénard,Binu Antony,Christin Borgwardt,Fredrik Andersson,Erik Hedenström,David G. Heckel,Christer Löfstedt +8 more
TL;DR: This is the first functional characterization of a gene contributing to intraspecific behavioural reproductive isolation in moths, highlighting the importance of evolutionary diversification in a lepidopteran-specific family of reductases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Host strain specific sex pheromone variation in Spodoptera frugiperda
TL;DR: Finding the genetic basis of the pheromone differences, as well as these other biological traits, will help to elucidate the role of premating isolation in the continuing differentiation of these two strains that may eventually lead to speciation.
