Identification of the Key Pathways and Genes Involved in the Wax Biosynthesis of the Chinese White Wax Scale Insect (<i>Ericerus pela</i> Chavannes) by Integrated Weighted Gene Coexpression Network Analysis

Identification of the Key Pathways and Genes Involved in the Wax Biosynthesis of the Chinese White Wax Scale Insect (<i>Ericerus pela</i> Chavannes) by Integrated Weighted Gene Coexpression Network Analysis

The white wax secreted by the male insects of the Chinese white wax scale (CWWS) is a natural high-molecular-weight compound with important economic value. However, its regulatory mechanism of wax biosynthesis is still unclear. In this study, a weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) was...
