Sex- and stage-dependent expression patterns of odorant-binding and chemosensory protein genes in Spodoptera exempta

As potential molecular targets for developing novel pest management strategies, odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) and chemosensory proteins (CSPs) have been considered to initiate odor recognition in insects. Herein, we investigated the OBPs and CSPs in a major global crop pest (Spodoptera exempta). U...
