Chemosensory Gene Families in Ectropis grisescens and Candidates for Detection of Type-II Sex Pheromones

Chemosensory Gene Families in Ectropis grisescens and Candidates for Detection of Type-II Sex Pheromones

Tea grey geometrid (Ectropis grisescens), a devastating chewing pest in tea plantations throughout China, produces Type-II pheromone components. Little is known about the genes encoding proteins involved in the perception of Type-II sex pheromone components. To investigate the olfaction genes involv...
