Stage-specific metabolic allocation: nutrient investment strategies during Lysiphlebia japonica Ashmead development by Tingting Zhou, Ningbo Huangfu, Li Wang, Junyu Luo, Jinjie Cui, Xiangzhen Zhu, Sumei Wan, Xueke Gao

“…IntroductionParasitic wasps are key biological control agents that rely on precise nutrient allocation to regulate host exploitation and optimize their own development. Nutrients, particularly lipids and energy-related metabolites, play a critical role in shaping stage-specific growth and survival strategies in parasitic wasps.MethodsTo analyze the allocation patterns of metabolite resources during development of parasitoid wasps, the multi-omics analysis was employed to systematically investigate nutrient dynamics across three growth periods in Lysiphlebia japonica Ashmead, a major parasitoid of cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii Glover).ResultsHere, a total of 753 metabolites were detected by untargeted metabolomics, with numerous nutritionally critical compounds including amino acids, fatty acids and carbohydrates showed stage-specific variations. …”
