  Insects are essential to maintain agricultural ecosystems, but they are also annoying trouble-makers that damage >30% of agricultural, forestry and livestock production and cause billions in economic losses annually.Insects are vectors of many devastating diseases leading to the loss of numerous human lives.The availability of insect genomes and transcriptomes provides valuable resources for entomological research.However, the insect community lacks an integrated, up-to-date database of gene resources.
