Abstract excerpt
Transposon-mediated transgenesis has been widely used to study gene function in Lepidoptera, with piggyBac being the most commonly employed system. However, because the piggyBac transposase originates from a lepidopteran genome, it raises concerns about endogenous activation, remobilization, and silencing of transgenes, thus questioning its suitability as an optimal tool in Lepidoptera. As an alternative, we eva...
