Knockdown of the Expression of Two Trehalase Genes with RNAi Disrupts the Trehalose and Chitin Metabolism Pathways in the Oriental Armyworm, <i>Mythimna separata</i>

Trehalose is an important carbohydrate substance in insect hemolymph. Chitin is the main component of cuticle and peritrophic matrix in insects. Trehalase (Tre) catalyzes the decomposition of trehalose. Few studies of trehalase in lepidopteran insects have been conducted. Here, the functions of solu...
