Cole crops are globally consumed as vegetables and important sources of our dietary requirements, but they infested by an array pests, specifically the large white butterfly, Pieris brassicae (L). It is a critical global pest cruciferous vegetable crops. We investigated consequences diverse on fitness P. under laboratory conditions in 2021-22, to survive, develop, reproduce conditions, extent d...

Genetic correlations between purebred Duroc (DU), Large White (LW) and Landrace (LR) pigs and their crossbreds LW×LR, LR×LW, DU×(LW×LR) and DU×(LR×LW) were estimated for production and reproduction traits. Performance test and litter records from Government pig breeding stations in Thailand were used. REML bivariate animal models were used to estimate genetic correlations for each trait measure...

Chemosensory proteins (CSPs) have been proposed to transport hydrophobic chemicals from air to olfactory or taste receptors. They have been isolated from several sensory organs of a wide range of insect species. The x-ray structure of CSPMbraA6, a 112-aa antennal protein from the moth Mamestra brassicae (Mbra), was shown to exhibit a novel type of alpha-helical fold. We have performed a structu...

The rhizosphere microbiome is considered to play a key role in determining crop health. However, current understanding of the factors which shape assembly and composition heavily biased toward bacterial communities, relevance for other microbial groups unclear. Furthermore, community determined by variety factors, including host genotype, environment agricultural management practices, their rel...
