Silencing of selenium-binding protein disrupted the active immunization of the termite Reticulitermes chinensis and improved the lethal effect of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae

2022-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Active immunization is a process by which naïve termites receive sublethal doses of pathogenic spores from infected termites through social contact to enhance their immune responses; this process significantly diminishes the termite biocontrol effect of commercial entomopathogenic products, such as Metarhizium anisopliae. We found that the expression of selenium-binding protein (SeBP) was significantly increased b...
