The role of Broad in the development of Tribolium castaneum: implications for the evolution of the holometabolous insect pupa.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Feb 2008

Suzuki Yuichiro, Truman James W, Riddiford Lynn M

Abstract excerpt

The evolution of complete metamorphosis in insects is a key innovation that has led to the successful diversification of holometabolous insects, yet the origin of the pupa remains an enigma. Here, we analyzed the expression of the pupal specifier gene broad (br), and the effect on br of isoform-specific, double-stranded RNA-mediated silencing, in a basal holometabolous insect, the beetle Tribolium castaneum. All...
