Project description:Laodelphax striatellus is naturally infected with the Wolbachia strain wStri, which significantly increase the fecundity of its host. Wolbachia-infected females produce 30%–40% more eggs than Wolbachia-uninfected females. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous non-coding small RNAs that play critical roles in the regulation of gene expression at post-transcriptional level. Here we report the differentially expressed miRNAs between Wolbachia-infected and Wolbachia-uninfected strains of L. striatellus ovaries. Our data may be helpful to explore the molecular mechanisms by which Wolbachia increase the fecundity of Laodelphax striatellus.
Project description:In order to clarify the molecular mechanism of metabolic detoxification in Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén), the transcriptome sequencing analysis was used to screen and identify the relevant genes related to metabolic detoxification after induced by β-asarone at LC50 dose.
