Identification of pheromone-binding proteins of the maize stem borer, Chilo partellus (Swinhoe, 1885) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)
Abstract Pheromone-binding proteins (PBPs) play a significant role in olfaction and mating. The present work was designed to isolate, extract, and purify the pheromone-binding proteins from the antennae of male Chilo partellus (Swinhoe, 1885) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae).
