Phase-related differences in egg production of the migratory locust regulated by differential oosorption through microRNA-34 targeting activinβ.

Outbreaks of locust plagues result from the long-term accumulation of high-density egg production. The migratory locust, Locusta migratoria, displays dramatic differences in the egg-laid number with dependence on population density, while solitarious locusts lay more eggs compared to gregarious ones...
