As global food demand continues to increase, effective pest control remains one of agriculture's most pressing challenges.

Researchers from Tokyo University of Science, Japan, identified two proteins in spider mites, called Tet3 and Tet4, that elicit defense responses in plants. Notably, they found that the expression ...

To target these pathogenic macrophages, we used a synthetic small molecule that triggers protein degradation of TET3. Because the compound relies on coexpression of an enzyme that is also upregulated ...

Overuse of chemical pesticides has driven resistance in agricultural pests, including the adaptable two-spotted spider mite. Researchers have discovered novel elicitor proteins, Tet3 and Tet4, in mite ...
