Engineered expression of the invertebrate-specific scorpion toxin AaHIT reduces adult longevity and female fecundity in the diamondback moth Plutella xylostella

Tim Harvey‐Samuel, Xuejiao Xu, Erica Lovett, Tarig Dafa’alla, Adam S. Walker, Victoria Norman, Ruth Carter, Joss Teal, L.K. Akilan, Philip T. Leftwich, Christine M. Reitmayer, Hamid Anees Siddiqui, Luke Alphey

This paper shows that expressing the scorpion toxin AaHIT in diamondback moth reduces adult lifespan and female egg production, demonstrating a non-cell-autonomous genetic pest management approach.
