TL;DR: Gene family expansion and transcriptomic analyses provided hints to the genomic basis of the differences in important traits such as host range, migratory habit, and plant virus transmission between L. striatellus and the other 2 planthoppers.
A Plant Virus Ensures Viral Stability in the Hemolymph of Vector Insects through Suppressing Prophenoloxidase Activation.
TL;DR: Results indicate that RSV attenuates the PPO response to ensure viral stability in the hemolymph of vector insects, and this research provides enlightening cues for controlling the transmission of vector-borne viruses.

TL;DR: Flotillin 2 is identified as a membrane protein that mediates the cell entry of rice stripe virus in its vector insect, the small brown planthopper, and may be a promising target gene for manipulation in vector insects to control the transmission of rice virus diseases in the future.

Alternative splicing landscape of small brown planthopper and different response of JNK2 isoforms to rice stripe virus infection.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used third-generation sequencing technology and RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) to evaluate the alternative splicing response in the small brown planthopper Laodelphax striatellus to rice stripe virus (RSV).

A Symbiotic Virus Facilitates Aphid Adaptation to Host Plants by Suppressing Jasmonic Acid Responses.
TL;DR: A benefit of the symbiotic virus to its aphid host is suggested and a novel case of symbiosis virus-mediated three-species interaction is demonstrated.
