The fatty acid elongase gene family in the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens
Abstract
The cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) biosynthetic pathways branches off from the synthesis of fatty acids. Fatty acid elongases (ELOs) are enzymes catalyzing the synthesis of long-chain fatty acids and thereby contribute to the diversification of CHCs. Based on bioinformatics analyses we identified 20 ELO genes in the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens. RNA interference against these genes demonstrated that 9 NlELO genes were essential for the...
