Aedes aegypti | injection of dsRNAs resulted in a approx. 80% significant reduction of AaALDH3-1 and AaALDH3-2 mRNAs, treatment with dsRNA for the AaALDH3-1 gene results in stronger reductions of farnesoic acid and juvenile hormone than treatment with dsRNA for the AaALDH3-2 gene | down |
Aedes aegypti | in the presence of an excess of farnesal and NAD+, highly active glands produces 10 times more farnesoic acid than suppressed glands, 24 h after blood feeding | up |
