Abstract excerpt
Insecticide resistance in insects often involves overexpression of carboxylesterase (CarE) genes. In the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella, β-cypermethrin resistance is linked to elevated expressions of PxαE9, PxαE27, and PxαE14. To elucidate the underlying transcriptional regulation, we identified their core promoters and predicted, via in silico analysis (ALGGEN and JASPAR), that the transcription factor...
