Guidelines for Introducing Beneficial Insect-parasitic Nematodes into the United States.
Guidelines are suggested to implement the introduction of beneficial insect-parasitic nematodes into the United States from abroad. These suggestions result from experiences and research with these and other biological control agents and from the current need for procedures to import nematodes. Subjects considered are need to import, foreign exploration, taxonomy, shipment, quarantine facilitie...
متن کاملIntroducing transgenes into insect populations using combined gene-drive strategies: modeling and analysis.
Engineered underdominance (EU), meiotic drive (MD) and Wolbachia have been proposed as mechanisms for driving anti-pathogen transgenes into natural populations of insect vectors of human diseases. EU can drive transgenes to high and stable frequencies but requires the release of sizeable numbers of engineered insects. MD and Wolbachia either cannot maintain high frequencies of transgenes or lac...
متن کاملIntroducing desirable transgenes into insect populations using Y-linked meiotic drive - a theoretical assessment.
The use of genetic drive mechanisms to replace native mosquito genotypes with individuals bearing antipathogen transgenes is a potential strategy for repressing insect transmission of human diseases such as malaria and dengue. Antipathogen transgenes have been developed and tested, but efficient gene drive mechanisms are lacking. Here we theoretically assess the feasibility of introducing antip...
متن کاملIntroducing the
The “organizer paper” by Hans Spemann and Hilde Mangold (1924) initiated a new epoch in developmental biology. It marked the climax of Spemann’s life-long research, and the “organizer effect” received special mention by the committee that honoured him with the Nobel Prize for physiology and medicine in 1935. This introduction precedes a translation of that paper by Spemann’s student, Viktor Ham...
متن کاملIntroducing the Iranian moss flora explorer
Mosses (a section of bryophytes), are considered as an important group of non-flowering plants which a modern computer-assisted database system is not yet prepared for their determination and description key in Iran. Following a software package recently designed under a research project for assessment of moss diversity of Iran by the authors, the present paper is prepared to: I) introducing co...
