摘要: microRNA是一种小的非编码RNA,通过靶向信使RNA中的位点在植物和动物的基因调控过程中发挥作用。已发现microRNA在整个昆虫发育过程中调节多种生理机能,包括蜕皮、变态、卵子发生、胚胎发生、行为和宿主病原体相互作用。microRNA的功能在高度分化的物种中具有保守性,因而在模式生物——黑腹果蝇中已经被广泛研究。探索microRNA在非果蝇昆虫物种中的作用已经成为昆虫科学的一种趋势。介绍了microRNA近年来在昆虫生理和发育过程中的作用。

Abstract: microRNA are small non-coding RNA that function in gene regulatory processes in plants and animals by targeting sites within messenger RNA. In insects, microRNA have been shown to regulate a variety of physiological processes throughout insect development, including molting, metamorphosis, oogenesis, embryogenesis, behavior and host-pathogen interactions. The roles of microRNA in the model organism, Drosophila melanogaster, have been studied extensively due to the conserved nature of microRNA function among highly divergent species. However, seeking to understand microRNA function in non-drosophilid insect species has become a growing trend in insect science. The role of microRNA in insect physiology and development in recent years were introduced.

Key words: insect, microRNA, growth, development, regulation
