Gene networks in Drosophila melanogaster: integrating experimental data to predict gene function

James C Costello, Mehmet M Dalkilic, Scott M Beason, Jeff R Gehlhausen, Rupali Patwardhan, Sumit Middha, Brian D Eads, Justen R Andrews Genome Biology 2009, 10:R97 (16 September 2009)

The first computational interaction network built from Drosophila melanogaster protein-protein and genetic interaction data allows the functional annotation of orphan genes and reveals clusters of functionally-related genes.

Parasitization by the wasp Eretmocerus mundus induces transcription of genes related to immune response and symbiotic bacteria proliferation in the whitefly Bemisia tabaci

Assaf Mahadav, Dan Gerling, Yuval Gottlieb, Henryk Czosnek, Murad Ghanim BMC Genomics 2008, 9:342 (18 July 2008)

Parasitization of the whitefly Blemisia tabaci by the wasp Eretmocercus mundus activates genes related to the immune response, as previously observed in Drosophila, and also induces the proliferation of Rickettsia, a bacterial endosymbiont of B. tabaci.

Genome-wide investigation reveals pathogen-specific and shared signatures in the response of Caenorhabditis elegans to infection

Daniel Wong, Daphne Bazopoulou, Nathalie Pujol, Nektarios Tavernarakis, Jonathan J Ewbank Genome Biology 2007, 8:R194 (17 September 2007)

Microarray analysis of the transcriptional response of C. elegans to four bacterial pathogens revealed that different infections trigger responses, some of which are common to all four pathogens, such as necrotic cell death, which has been associated with infection in humans.

Gene expression profiling of Spodoptera frugiperda hemocytes and fat body using cDNA microarray reveals polydnavirus-associated variations in lepidopteran host genes transcript levels

M Barat-Houari, F Hilliou, F-X Jousset, L Sofer, E Deleury, J Rocher, M Ravallec, L Galibert, P Delobel, R Feyereisen, P Fournier, A-N Volkoff BMC Genomics 2006, 7:160 (21 June 2006)

Parasitic wasps can suppress their hosts’ defence mechanisms through the action of endosymbiotic polydnaviruses, as shown by changes in the transcript levels of specific host genes in the presence of such a virus.
