Advances in Transcriptomics in Stored-Product Pests
Transcriptome sequencing technology can quantify the differentially expressed genes in tissues or cells under different physiological conditions,being an essential means to explore gene function and reveal the molecular mechanism of specific biological processes.Stored product pests are a kind of pests that seriously harm the stored grain.Therefore,it has become a focus of research to reveal the growth and development,key gene function and mo-lecular mechanism of resistance of stored grain pests from transcriptome level.In this paper,the application of tran-scriptomics in the study of stored grain pests were reviewed from the mining of growth and development related genes,tissue-specific genes,interaction mechanism with microorganisms,response mechanism to environmental stress,phosphine resistance mechanism and insecticidal mechanism of plant essential oil,aiming to provide reference for fur-ther research on stored grain pests and pest control technology of stored grain.
