Transcriptome differential co‐expression reveals distinct molecular response of fall‐armyworm strains to DIMBOA
Taking advantage of the recent publication from our group applying network analyses, I would like to present a last year publication in the Pest Management Science journal. We evaluated differential expression in the transcriptome of both midgut and fat body larval tissues of the two strains of the FAW reared on either DIMBOA‐enriched artificial diet …

Mechanisms behind polyphagia in a pest insect: Responses of Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) strains to preferential and alternative larval host plants assessed with gene regulatory networks
This publication in Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) – Gene Regulatory Mechanisms is part of Natália Murad’s PhD in Universidade Estadual de Campinas, in Brazil, under mine and Dr. Marcelo Brandão’s supervision. A dataset of gene expression from FAW was used to understand how gene regulation is related to larval host plant preference. Transcriptomic data …

Population genetic structure and demographic history of Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae): implications for insect resistance management programs
Spodoptera frugiperda is a destructive pest that often imposes difficult management due to its high polyphagy and rapid insecticide resistance evolution. Knowledge of species diversification, population structure, and host preference can aid efforts to manage pest populations. In this study, we investigated the patterns of hybridization, genetic structure, and gene flow in S. frugiperda populations, discussing how …
