Gene expression plasticity across hosts of an invasive scale insect species.

Gene expression plasticity across hosts of an invasive scale insect species.

For plant-eating insects, we still have only a nascent understanding of the genetic basis of host-use promiscuity. Here, to improve that situation, we investigated host-induced gene expression plasticity in the invasive lobate lac scale insect, Paratachardina pseudolobata (Hemiptera: Keriidae). We w...
