Alcasid-QuiƱones, R.E., Bautista, M.A.M., Lantican, D.V., Latina, R.A., & Caoili, B.L. 2025 Development of immune gene-linked SSR markers for coconut scale insects (Aspidiotus destructor and Aspidiotus rigidus) toward comprehensive genetic analysis. International Journal of Tropical Insect Science
Keywords:
Notes: This study has focused on the identification of immune genes and pathways expressed by adult female coconut scale insects. By mining and characterizing associated microsatellites in the transcriptome data- sets of A. destructor and A. rigidus, immune gene-linked SSR markers were also developed for future downstream genetic and functional analysis. https://doi.org/10.1007/s42690-025-01615-3
