The Sunn pest, Eurygaster integriceps (Puton), occupies contrasting field and shelter habitats across its univoltine life cycle. We combined transcriptome-guided annotation, motif and conserved-domain analysis, localization prediction, fragment-based structural modeling, phylogenetic placement, and RT-qPCR to characterize partial Hsp60, Hsp70, and Hsp90 sequences and compare their whole-body transcript abundance among 4 field-sampled groups and between sexes. The translated fragments contained family-associated motifs and conserved-domain matches, showed high similarity to hemipteran homologs, and clustered with corresponding Halyomorpha halys St\u00e5l sequences, supporting provisional annotation of the 3 partial transcripts. Expression patterns differed among genes. Hsp70 abundance was higher in the summer-sampled group than in the other sampling groups across sexes, whereas Hsp90 showed a sex-dependent pattern, with higher abundance in summer-, autumn-, and winter-sampled males than in spring-sampled males and lower abundance in winter-sampled females than in spring-sampled females. Hsp60 also showed a sex-by-sampling-group pattern, but within-sex comparisons with the spring group were not supported after multiple-comparison adjustment. Because sampling phase covaried with habitat, altitude, cohort, and physiological context, these results describe associations among field-collected groups rather than isolated effects of season or diapause. The study supports provisional sequence-based annotations and identifies gene- and sex-associated transcript patterns that can guide controlled, tissue-resolved investigations of HSP regulation in E. integriceps.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jisesa\/ieag097","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,17]],"date-time":"2026-09-17T19:24:16Z","timestamp":1789673056000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Molecular characterization and seasonal, sex-associated expression patterns of\n                    <i>HSP<\/i>\n                    genes in\n                    <i>Eurygaster integriceps<\/i>\n                    (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae)"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-9656-8112","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fatemeh","family":"Abdollahi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plant Protection, College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, University of Tehran , Karaj,","place":["Iran"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2709-0061","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Azam","family":"Amiri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Landscape Engineering, Faculty of Geography and Environmental Planning, University of Sistan and Baluchestan , Zahedan,","place":["Iran"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1766-9355","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ali R","family":"Bandani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plant Protection, College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, University of Tehran , Karaj,","place":["Iran"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026091808532820000_ieag097-B1","author":"Abdollahi","year":"2024"},{"key":"2026091808532820000_ieag097-B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"42999","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-025-27154-y","article-title":"Tissue-specific transcriptomic and endocrine signatures of obligatory reproductive diapause in Eurygaster integriceps","volume":"15","author":"Alborzi","year":"2025","journal-title":"Sci.
