A dipteran parasite regulates 20E synthesis and antibacterial activity of the host for development through inducing host nitric oxide production
2023-11-01
Abstract excerpt
Parasites primarily rely on the host to survive, and have evolved diverse survival strategies. In the present study, we report a specific survival strategy of a dipteran parasite Exorista sorbillans (Diptera: Tachinidae), which is a potential biological control agent for agricultural pests and a pest in sericulture. We found that the expression levels of host nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and nitric oxide (NO) prod...
