E93 expression and links to the juvenile hormone in hemipteran mealybugs with insights on female neoteny

Isabelle Mifom Vea, Sayumi Tanaka, Tomohiro Tsuji, Takahiro Shiotsuki, Akiya Jouraku, Chieka Minakuchi

This study investigates E93 expression and its relationship with juvenile hormone in Japanese mealybugs, showing that female neoteny is associated with low E93 transcripts and insensitivity to juvenile hormone mimic treatments.
