Keywords:
Notes: This study identified a novel KMT gene, PsASH2, in the cotton mealybug, Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley. This gene was highly expressed in the ovary of female adults. The authors aimed to (1) identify this novel gene by full-length transcript amplification and sequence analysis, (2) characterise its detailed gene expression profiles, and (3) explore its functions in embryo development using RNA interference (RNAi). https://doi.org/10.1111/imb.13003
