Identification and Functional Characterization of Carboxylesterase Genes Involved in Spirodiclofen Resistance in (McGregor).

Overexpression of carboxyl/cholinesterase (CCE) genes has been reported to be associated with many cases of pesticide resistance in arthropods. However, it has been rarely documented that genes participate in spirodiclofen resistance in .

A down-regulated cytochrome P450 in Neoseiulus barkeri Hughes (Acari: Phytoseiidae) can dechlorinate and hydroxylate chlorpyrifos without producing chlorpyrifos-oxon.

Selection of chemical-resistant predatory mites is a good alternative to balance the contradiction between chemical control and biological control. Previously, a resistant strain of Neoseiulus barkeri for chlorpyrifos was obtained. In the current study, two up-regulated (NbCYP3A6, NbCYP3A16) and one down-regulated (NbCYP3A24) P450s were screened through differential expression analysis and other detoxification-related genes such as CCEs, GST, etc.

Environmental regulation, industrial agglomeration, and marine green development efficiency: an empirical analysis from China's coastal provinces.

Environmental regulation (ER) and industrial agglomeration (IA) are important factors that affect green development efficiency (GDE). However, there is a lack of studies on their relation in the context of the marine economy. This paper integrates ER, IA, and marine GDE (MGDE) into a unified analytical framework and uses balanced panel data from China's 11 coastal provinces during 2008-2019 to quantify the linear, nonlinear, and spatial spillover effects between the three using the spatial Durbin model (SDM) and threshold effect model.

Chromosome-level genome assembly of the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri.

Diaphorina citri is a global citrus pest. As a vector insect, it can transmit the causative agents of citrus huanglongbing, causing irreversible losses to the citrus industry. The acquisition of genomic information can provide a molecular genetic basis for effective control of D.

Decomposition analysis of the decoupling and driving factors of municipal solid waste: Taking China as an example.

As one type of debt 'borrowed' from nature, municipal solid waste (MSW) can be influenced by financing debt. Taking China as an example, an improved Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) model, together with the Tapio decoupling model, is developed to analyze the impact of private debt on MSW generation and the relationship between MSW and economic growth. The results show that the debt-income ratio promotes MSW generation and the output efficiency of debt inhibits MSW generation.

Developing a generally applicable electrochemical sensor for detecting macrolides in water with thiophene-based molecularly imprinted polymers.

Our screening data revealed the threat macrolide antibiotics, especially azithromycin (AZN), posed to human health with its increasing occurrence in water environment. The electrochemical sensor based on molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) is a promising platform that caters for the next generation of intelligent wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) by virtue of its wide tolerance to water from all sources and in-situ monitoring. However, low initiation potentials of cross-linking monomers contributed by the electron-rich circumstance allowed them to usurp sites designed for functional monomers when electrically stimulated, leading to an unsatisfactory binding capacity.

Government intervention, market development, and pollution emission efficiency: Evidence from China.

The government and the market are the two main means for resource allocation, and both play important roles in economic development and environmental protection. Based on the theoretical mechanism analysis, this study empirically investigated the relationship between government intervention, market development, and China's provincial pollution emission efficiency by using the static panel OLS, system generalized method of moments (SYS-GMM), and panel threshold effect model during the period 2000-2017. The results show that the impact of government intervention on China's provincial pollution emission efficiency shows a non-linear U-shaped curve relationship, and there is a positive correlation between market development and provincial pollution emission efficiency in China.

Combining the biennial Malmquist-Luenberger index and panel quantile regression to analyze the green total factor productivity of the industrial sector in China.

Improving the green total-factor productivity (GTFP) is a key measure to coordinate industrial development and environmental protection in China. This study adopts the biennial Malmquist-Luenberger (BML) productivity index to estimate the GTFP change of China's 34 industrial subsectors covering the period 2005-2015. Subsequently, fixed-effect panel quantile regression is applied to analyze the heterogeneous effects of eight selected influencing factors on China's industrial GTFP change.
