Differential oxidative stress responses in castor semilooper, Achaea janata.
Published in Journal of Invertebrate Pathology
Balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the antioxidant (AO) defense mechanisms is vital for organism survival. Insects serve as an ideal model to elucidate oxidative stress responses as they are prone to different kinds of stress during their life cycle. The present study demonstrates the modulation of AO enzyme gene expression in the in...
