Molecular characterization of Tps1 and Treh genes in Drosophila and their role in body water homeostasis

In insects, trehalose serves as the main sugar component of haemolymph. Trehalose is also recognized as a mediator of desiccation survival due to its proposed ability to stabilize membranes and proteins. Although the physiological role of trehalose in insects has been documented for decades, genetic...
