Journal ArticleDOI

Two genomes of highly polyphagous lepidopteran pests (Spodoptera frugiperda, Noctuidae) with different host-plant ranges

Anaïs Gouin, +68 more
- 25 Sep 2017 - 
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

Extensive synteny conservation of holocentric chromosomes in Lepidoptera despite high rates of local genome rearrangements

TL;DR: This study sequenced BACs from two major pests, the noctuid moths Helicoverpa armigera and Spodoptera frugiperda, corresponding to 15 regions distributed on 11 B. mori chromosomes, and reports a large cluster of eight members of the aminopeptidase N gene family that is estimated to have been present since the Jurassic.
Journal ArticleDOI

SPODOBASE: an EST database for the lepidopteran crop pest Spodoptera.

TL;DR: The SPODOBASE database provides integrated access to expressed sequence tags (EST) from the lepidopteran insect Spodoptera frugiperda which will allow identification of a number of genes and comprehensive cloning of gene families of interest for scientific community.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of the cDNA encoding the 90 kDa heat-shock protein in the Lepidoptera Bombyx mori and Spodoptera frugiperda

TL;DR: It is shown that, unlike the vertebrates, hsp90 is a unique gene in both S. frupiperda and B. mori genomes, andylogenetic analysis based on the two lepidopteran and 23 other HSP90 aa sequences displays a high consistency with known phylogeny at both high and low taxonomic levels.
