Abstract
Recently,more and more attention was paid on insect chitinase in plant pest control,for it could degrade chitin,one of the main components of insect integument and petritropic membrane.The physiological actions and influence factors,gene structure and specific expression in vivo of insect chitinases,as well as their application prospects in plant pests control were reviewed here.
