A single gene (yes) controls pigmentation of eyes and scales in Heliothis virescens
A yellow-eyed mutant was discovered in a strain of Heliothis virescens, the tobacco budworm, that already exhibited a mutation for yellow scale, y. We investigated the inheritance of these visible mutations as candidate markers for transgenesis. Yellow eye was controlled by a single, recessive, autosomal factor, the same type of inheritance previously known for y. Presence of the recombinant mu...
متن کاملGenes encoding candidate pheromone receptors in a moth (Heliothis virescens).
The remarkable responsiveness of male moths to female released pheromones is based on the extremely sensitive and selective reaction of highly specialized sensory cells in the male antennae. These cells are supposed to be equipped with male-specific receptors for pheromonal compounds, however, the nature of these receptors is still elusive. By using a combination of genomic sequence analysis an...
متن کاملGenetics of sex pheromone blend differences between Heliothis virescens and Heliothis subflexa: a chromosome mapping approach.
Males of the noctuid moths, Heliothis virescens and H. subflexa locate mates based on species-specific responses to female-emitted pheromones that are composed of distinct blends of volatile compounds. We conducted genetic crosses between these two species and used AFLP marker-based mapping of backcross families (H. subflexa direction) to determine which of the 30 autosomes in these moths conta...
متن کاملComputational identification and characterization of putative miRNAs in Heliothis virescens
Heliothis virescens, a polyphagous pest, is one of the most destructive pests of many crops and vegetables. Various insecticides and pesticides are used by agriculturalists to stop the growth and development of this pest. RNA interference is a new area for the management of pests/insects by inhibiting the growth related RNAs. This involves the miRNAs identification and its characterization. In ...
متن کاملEnzymes and resistance to insecticides in Heliothis virescens.
762 between the tracheoles and the internal tissues. In resistant insects phosphine slowly reacts with some component of the membrane which retards its entry but may slowly oxidize it to hypophosphite. Since this site is not the toxic lesion no harm is done. In susceptible insects phosphine is transported unchanged into the internal tissues where it disrupts sensitive redox systems thus generat...
