Antibody-Based Methods Reveal the Protein Expression Properties of Glucosinolate Sulfatase 1 and 2 in Plutella xylostella.

The glucosinolates (GLs) and myrosinase defensive systems in cruciferous plants were circumvented by Plutella xylostella using glucosinolate sulfatases (PxGSSs) during pest-plant interaction. Despite identifying three duplicated GSS-encoding genes in P. xylostella, limited information regarding their spatiotemporal and induced expression is available.

Using essential oils from Citrus paradisi as a fumigant for Solenopsis invicta workers and evaluating the oils' effect on worker behavior.

The red imported fire ant is one of the world's most devastating invasive species, adversely affecting humans, wildlife, crops, and livestock.
