Distinct expression profiles and different functions of odorant binding proteins in Nilaparvata lugens Stål.
<h4>Background</h4>Odorant binding proteins (OBPs) play important roles in insect olfaction. The brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens Stål (Delphacidae, Auchenorrhyncha, Hemiptera) is one of the most important rice pests. Its monophagy (only feeding on rice), wing form (long and s...
