Previous studies have revealed an association between OCD and l allele. We analysed 5-HTTLPR...

The Queensland fruit fly, Bactrocera tryoni, is Australia’s most important horticultural pest. Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) has been used to control this species for decades, using radiation sterilize males before field-release. This method of sterilization can potentially reduce the insects’ abilities compete mates. In study, RNA interference (RNAi) techniques were examined their potential male B. tryoni without adversely affecting mating competitiveness. adults injected or fed...
