　　Research Focus

　　Sterols are key nutrient in organisms including insects. We are using bioinformatics tools and molecular methods to investigate the pathways and related genes involved in the sterol metabolism in important Lepidopteran pests. These genes have great potential in controlling target-specific pests.
