Knockdown of a β-Adrenergic-Like Octopamine Receptor Affects Locomotion and Reproduction of <i>Tribolium castaneum</i>

Knockdown of a β-Adrenergic-Like Octopamine Receptor Affects Locomotion and Reproduction of <i>Tribolium castaneum</i>

The neurohormone octopamine regulates many crucial physiological processes in insects and exerts its activity via typical G-protein coupled receptors. The roles of octopamine receptors in regulating behavior and physiology in Coleoptera (beetles) need better understanding. We used the red flour beet...
