How can you use “lepidopteran” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

If homologs of the cg4715 gene are conserved among Diptera and Lepidoptera, the interrelationship between members of the baculoviridae and TED, the lepidopteran gypsy element capable of integrating into both a host insect and a baculovirus genome, provides a clear pathway via DNA recombination for the exchange of members of the ld130 gene family between host cells, baculovirus genomes, and the transposable element.
In TED, the lepidopteran retrovirus-like element, seven of the C-terminal cysteine residues are conserved.
Current evidence suggests that lepidopteran baculoviruses may be divided into two phylogenetic groups based on the envelope fusion proteins of budded virions [ 3].
For example, an LD130 homolog from PxGV, PX26 [ 9] showed significance values of 10 -10with the envelope protein of TED, a lepidopteran retrovirus-like retrotransposon [ 17], and in the 10 -4to 10 -10range for a number of other predicted envelope proteins from retrovirus-like retrotransposons from other insects, particularly members from the genus Drosophila . Searches with other members of the ld130 family showed values of 10 -4to 10 -6to these proteins.
Bioassay of the individual HPLC fractions of CM-IV fraction on tobacco budworm, blowfly larvae and mice led to the localization of lepidopteran selective toxicity in CM-IV fraction 6 (Table 1).
