文摘
- •
Spiroplasma citri induced a specific immune response compared to Escherichia coli and Micrococcus luteus.
- •
Activation of phagocytosis is observed in Circulifer haematoceps after S. citri infection.
- •
S. citri promotes a continuous phenoloxydase activity decrease in insect hemolymph.
- •
We succeed in using RNA interference to inhibit the transcription of hexamerin gene.
- •
Hexamerin is required for full PO activity and insect surviving to S. citri infection.
