Journal ArticleDOI

RNA interference in Lepidoptera: An overview of successful and unsuccessful studies and implications for experimental design

Olle Terenius, +78 more
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

16S rRNA gene-based identification of midgut bacteria from field-caught Anopheles gambiae sensu lato and A. funestus mosquitoes reveals new species related to known insect symbionts.

TL;DR: Field-collected mosquitoes of the two main malaria vectors in Africa were screened for their midgut bacterial contents, resulting in the first identifications of Anaplasma species from mosquitoes and a new mosquito-Spiroplasma association.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hemolin gene silencing by ds-RNA injected into Cecropia pupae is lethal to next generation embryos

TL;DR: It is concluded that Hemolin is necessary for development, since the silencing of Hemolin gene expression leads to embryonic lethality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exposure of rat brain to 915 MHz GSM microwaves induces changes in gene expression but not double stranded DNA breaks or effects on chromatin conformation.

TL;DR: GSM MWs at 915 MHz did not induce PFGE‐detectable DNA double stranded breaks or changes in chromatin conformation, but affected expression of genes in rat brain cells, including neurotransmitter regulation, blood–brain barrier, and melatonin production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parasite-specific immune response in adult Drosophila melanogaster: a genomic study

TL;DR: Several lysozyme genes were induced in response to Octosporea infection, while in other treatments they were not induced or downregulated, suggesting that lysozymes are important in antiparasitic defence.
