The Tra/Dsx-JHBP axis controls female-specific gene expression and oviposition in locusts.

The Tra/Dsx-JHBP axis controls female-specific gene expression and oviposition in locusts.

Sexual dimorphism is a crucial aspect of morphological and behavioral traits in animals. Unlike males, adult female locusts, i.e., Locusta migratoria, have highly extensible abdominal intersegmental membranes (ISMs) that facilitate deep oviposition into the soil, displaying an iconic sexual dimorphi...
