Transcriptomic Analysis of Octanoic Acid Response in Drosophila sechellia Using RNA-Sequencing

Transcriptomic Analysis of Octanoic Acid Response in Drosophila sechellia Using RNA-Sequencing

The dietary specialist fruit fly Drosophila sechellia has evolved to specialize on the toxic fruit of its host plant Morinda citrifolia. Toxicity of Morinda fruit is primarily due to high levels of octanoic acid (OA). Using RNA interference (RNAi), prior work found that knockdown of Osiris family ge...
