This study uses long-read transcriptomes to identify ancestral spider silk proteins and their evolutionary trajectories, revealing how they diversified into modern silk types.

This study investigates the role of LSD1 in lipid metabolism of Hermetia illucens, finding it promotes larval growth without affecting fat content or development.

This study identifies and characterizes a fatty acid synthase gene in Hermetia illucens, elucidating the molecular origin of lauric acid production through in vitro experiments in yeast.

This study identifies BmPrmt5 and BmVasa as essential regulators of dichotomous spermatogenesis in Bombyx mori, showing their roles in sperm morphology and gene expression through genetic and RNA-seq analyses.

The paper identifies two genetic pathways in silkworms that regulate olfactory-based sexual behaviors through specific pheromone perception genes.

The paper identifies two glucosinolate sulfatases, GSS1 and GSS2, as binding targets for the Bt toxin Cry1Bd in diamondback moth and shows their role in toxin toxicity.
