TL;DR
Findings elucidate the important function of Vgs in ovary development and provide insights into the association between insect Vg genes and the ovarian bacteria, thereby establishing a groundwork for subsequent investigations on the molecular mechanisms underlying their interaction.
This work identifies a previously uncharacterized miR-980-BdABCC1 regulatory axis that modulates avermectin tolerance and highlights post-transcriptional regulation of ABC transporters as a potential molecular target for future RNAi-based pest management strategies.

Background: Siraitia grosvenorii (monk fruit) is a dioecious medicinal crop native to southern China, yet its terpene synthase (TPS) gene family and the molecular basis of floral sexual dimorphism remain unexplored. Methods: Genome-wide identification of the TPS gene family was performed using HMMER and BLAST-based app...
