. 2004 Jul;
13(8):2491-504.
PMID: 15245421
Previous work showed that insecticide resistance in Drosophila melanogaster is correlated with the insertion of an Accord-like element into the 5' region of the cytochrome P450 gene, Cyp6g1. Here, we...

Cell Microbiol
. 2004 Mar;
6(4):345-53.
PMID: 15009026
Photorhabdus bacteria produce a number of toxins to kill their insect hosts. The expression of one of these, Makes caterpillars floppy (Mcf), is sufficient to allow Escherichia coli to persist...

Cell Microbiol
. 2003 Dec;
6(1):89-95.
PMID: 14678333
Photorhabdus are insect pathogenic bacteria that replicate within the insect haemocoel following release from their entomopathogenic nematode symbionts. To investigate how they escape the cellular immune response we examined the...
