Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying its regulation of the reproductive development of insects remain largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate the molecular mechanism by which DNA 6mA methylation regulates female reproduction in\n                      <jats:italic>Bactrocera dorsalis<\/jats:italic>\n                      .\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      RNA interference\u2010mediated knockdown of\n                      <jats:italic>BdJumu<\/jats:italic>\n                      , which binds to 6mA\u2010labeled DNA, significantly decreases the level of DNA 6mA methylation in the ovary of\n                      <jats:italic>B. dorsalis<\/jats:italic>\n                      . Moreover, compared with female flies in the control condition, those in the dsJumu group exhibit delayed ovarian development, a significantly reduced number of laid eggs, and an obviously decreased egg\u2010hatching rate.

Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis of 1536 downregulated genes showed their significant enrichment in the FoxO signaling pathway, which is related to female reproductive development.
