Identification of Genes Involved in Chemoreception in Plutella xyllostella by Antennal Transcriptome Analysis

Abstract Perception of environmental and habitat cues is of significance for insect survival and reproduction. Odor detection in insects is mediated by a number of proteins in antennae such as odorant receptors (ORs), ionotropic receptors (IRs), odorant binding proteins (OBPs), chemosensory proteins...
