Paenibacillus sp. strain ICGEB2008 (MTCC 5639) is a Gram-positive cellulolytic bacterium, isolated from the gut of Helicoverpa armigera. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Paenibacillus sp. ICGEB2008. The annotation of the ~5.7-Mb sequence indicated a cluster of genes related to the glycosyl hydrolase family and the butanediol biosynthesis pathway.

Nowadays, Alzheimer's disease is the most prevalent epiphenomenon of the aging population. Although soluble amyloid-β (Aβ) species (monomers, oligomers) are recognized triggers of the disease, no therapeutic approach is able to stop it. Herbal medicines are used to treat different diseases in many regions of the world. On the Balkan Peninsula, at the eastern Mediterranean Sea, and adjacent regi...

The present study deals two new alpheid shrimp species from the transisthmian Salmoneus ortmanni (Rankin, 1898) complex. Salmoneus alvarezi sp. nov. is described based on materials collected in Bahía Málaga, Colombia, and Punta Morales, Costa Rica, and is closely related to the western Atlantic S. ortmanni and S. wehrtmanni Anker, 2011. Salmoneus malagensis sp. nov. is described based on specim...

At the Central Research Farm of Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology And Sciences, Prayagraj, an experiment on chickpea was carried out to test "Field efficacy and economics selected insecticides bio-Pesticides against pod borer [Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner)] (Cicer arietinum L.) at Prayagraj" during rabi season 2022-2023. Effectiveness biopesticides viz., T1 Chlorantraniliprole...

Strategic application of moxidectin pour-on (Cydectin) was evaluated in Uganda for its effect on pasture larval counts and gastrointestinal nematode faecal egg counts in village cattle kept under tethering (semi-intensive) grazing management. The strategic deworming schedule involved treating cattle twice at an interval of 2 months, at the end of the 1st wet season and during the 2nd wet season...

A draft genome for Corynebacterium afermentans LCDC 88-0199(T) was investigated. The size of the genome was 2,345,615 bp with an observed G+C content of 64.85%. Annotation revealed 2 rRNA sequences, 54 tRNA genes, and 2,164 coding sequences. Genome coverage was 85× and consisted of 24 contigs with an N50 of 187,988 bp.

abstract for evaluation and identification some of the chamomile species in two genera anthemis and matricaria, morphological and phonological characteristics were used. the experiment was conducted in a randomized completely blocks design (rcbd) with three replicates, sixteen quantitative and qualitative traits were evaluated such as plant height, anthodium diameter, receptacle diameter, ligul...

Two sympatric species Helicoverpa armigera and Helicoverpa assulta use (Z)-11-hexadecenal and (Z)-9-hexadecenal as sex pheromone components in reverse ratio. They also share several other pheromone gland components (PGCs). We present a comparative study on the olfactory coding mechanism and behavioral effects of these additional PGCs in pheromone communication of the two species using single se...

According to the literature data cotton bollworm is one of most dangerous pests agricultural crops, causing crop losses up 55.0–60.0 %. In article foreign, Russian and domestic publications on distribution, biology, harmfulness monitoring – Helicoverpa armigera Hbn. are analyzed. It has been established that due wide distribution in Russia, Poland, Ukraine, optimal agro-climatic conditions, sho...
