What Are the Recent Advances in Parasitic Wasp Research?
Recent advances in genomic and proteomic technologies have allowed scientists to delve deeper into the molecular mechanisms of parasitic wasp venoms. These studies aim to identify and characterize the active components of the venom, understanding how they interact with host physiology. Such research is paving the way for new applications in biotechnology, such as the development of novel insecticides or therapeutic agents based on venom components.
