Bombyx mori Voltage-Dependent Anion-Selective Channel Induces Programmed Cell Death to Defend Against Bombyx mori Nucleopolyhedrovirus Infection.

We have substantiated the pivotal role of BmVDAC in conferring resistance against BmNPV infection, primarily associated with the initiation of PCD. The findings of this study offer fresh substantiation illuminating the molecular mechanisms governing the silkworm's response to BmNPV infection, thereby innovative approaches for pest biocontrol.
