Recent advancements in functional genomics have provided critical insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying these immune responses. This chapter explores the role of functional genomics in understanding the immune responses of insects against various pathogens. By integrating advanced genomic techniques, we illuminate the genetic underpinnings of insect immunity, paving the way for novel applications in pest control and disease management.
