Inhibitory Effect of Protease Inhibitors on Larval Midgut Protease Activities and the Performance of Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae)
Plutella xylostella L. (diamondback moth) is a pest of cruciferous plants. To understand the relationship among protease inhibitors, protease activities and the growth and development of this insect, the activities of midgut proteases of P. xylostella larvae were determined in this study. Protease s...
