Short Neuropeptide F and Its Receptor Regulate Feeding Behavior in Pea Aphid (<i>Acyrthosiphon pisum</i>)

Short Neuropeptide F and Its Receptor Regulate Feeding Behavior in Pea Aphid (<i>Acyrthosiphon pisum</i>)

Insect short neuropeptide F (sNPF), an ortholog of prolactin-releasing peptide of invertebrates, regulates diverse biological processes, including feeding, olfaction, locomotion, and sleep homeostasis in insects.
