Journal ArticleDOI

Micro-injection of Lygus salivary gland proteins to simulate feeding damage in alfalfa and cotton flowers.

TL;DR: It is suggested that breeding and selection for increased native PGIP levels, or transformation with genes encoding PGIP from other plant species, may be of value in obtaining alfalfa and cotton varieties that are more resistant to Lygus feeding damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sialome of a Generalist Lepidopteran Herbivore: Identification of Transcripts and Proteins from Helicoverpa armigera Labial Salivary Glands

TL;DR: This identification of secreted salivary gland proteins allows a more comprehensive understanding of insect feeding and poses new challenges for the elucidation of protein function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolutionary history of host use, rather than plant phylogeny, determines gene expression in a generalist butterfly.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that V. cardui may use two sets of expressed genes to achieve polyphagy, one associated with the ancestral capability to consume Rosids and Asterids, and another allowing the caterpillar to incorporate a wide range of novel host-plants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of endo- and exo-polygalacturonase activity in Lygus hesperus (KNIGHT) salivary glands

TL;DR: In this article, the salivary gland apparatus of the western tarnished plant bug (WTPB, Lygus hesperus Knight) was analyzed using affinity and ion exchange chromatography.
