Manual curation and phylogenetic analysis of chitinase family genes in the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri
Chitinases are enzymes that digest the polysaccharide polymer chitin. During insect development, breakdown of chitin is an essential step in molting of the exoskeleton. Knockdown of chitinases required for molting is lethal to insects, making chitinase genes an interesting target for RNAi-based pest...
