Identification and gene expression analysis of serine proteases and their homologs in the Asian corn borer Ostrinia furnacalis

Abstract Serine proteases (SPs) and their homologs (SPHs) are among the best-characterized gene families. They are involved in several physiological processes, including digestion, embryonic development and immunity. In the current study, a total of 177 SPs-related genes were characterized in the ge...
