Cloning and expressing a highly functional and substrate specific farnesoic acid o‐methyltransferase from the Asian citrus psyllid (Diaphorina citri Kuwayama)

Cloning and expressing a highly functional and substrate specific farnesoic acid o‐methyltransferase from the Asian citrus psyllid (Diaphorina citri Kuwayama)

The Asian citrus psyllid,Diaphorina citri, transmits a phloem‐limited bacterium,Candidatus ‘Liberibacter’ asiaticus that causes citrus greening disease. Because juvenile hormone (JH) plays an important role in adult and nymphal development, we studied the final steps in JH biosynthesis inD. citri. A...
