  • Notes: An age-stage, two-sex life table was used to investigate the sublethal effects of buprofezin on M. hirsutus life table parameters. Furthermore, a comparative transcriptomic study was conducted using a de novo assembly to evaluate the sublethal effects of buprofezin on gene expression in M. hirsutus. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to describe a transcriptome analysis of M. hirsutus subjected to buprofezin doses below the lethal threshold.
