Experimental study reveals Taiman regulates juvenile hormone signaling to synchronize pheromone processing and gland maturation in male moths, highlighting insect reproductive mechanisms.
silencing. Our results demonstrate that Tai is an actor of the JH signaling pathway that operates in ALs and ASGs to promote pheromone information processing and consequently the display of sexual behavior in synchrony with ASG maturation, ultimately optimizing male reproductive success. Thus, this study provides additional insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying hormonal regulation of sexual maturation in insects.
