An integrated transcriptomic and proteomic approach to identify the main Torymus sinensis venom components
Abstract During oviposition, ectoparasitoid wasps not only inject their eggs but also a complex mixture of proteins and peptides (venom) in order to regulate the host physiology to benefit their progeny. Although several endoparasitoid venom proteins have been identified, little is known about the c...
