Identification and Expression Patterns of (Forster) Chemosensory Receptor Genes from the Antennal Transcriptome.

The citrus long-horned beetle (CLB), (Forster) is a destructive native pest in China. Chemosensory receptors including odorant receptors (ORs), gustatory receptors (GRs), and ionotropic receptors (IRs) function to interface the insect with its chemical environment. In the current study, we assembled the antennal transcriptome of by next-generation sequencing.
