Insect derived extra oral GH32 plays a role in susceptibility of wheat to Hessian fly

Abstract The Hessian fly is an obligate parasite of wheat causing significant economic damage, and triggers either a resistant or susceptible reaction. However, the molecular mechanisms of susceptibility leading to the establishment of the larvae are unknown. Larval survival on the plant requires th...
