Chitinase (CHI) of <i>Spodoptera frugiperda</i> affects molting development by regulating the metabolism of chitin and trehalose.

frugiperda was inhibited, glucose and glycogen showed a trend of rising first and then decreasing, while trehalose showed a significant decline or decreasing trend ( Figure 4 ), indicating that the change of chitin degrading enzyme expression would also affect or feed back to the change of trehalose expression and activity in the upstream of chitin synthesis pathway ( Figure 5 ), but few studies related to this were reported.
