Strains of Bacillus thuringiensis produce insecticidal proteins. These strains have been isolated from diverse ecological niches, such as soil, phylloplane, insect cadavers and grain dust. To effectively propagate, these strains produce a range of molecules that facilitate its multiplication in a competing environment. In this report, we have examined synthesis of a chitin-binding protein and e...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the phytochemical, antimicrobial, and insecticidal properties tannins derived from Cydonia oblonga fruit.Qualitative quantitative methods were used for determination phytochemicals fruits. fruit extracted using solvents salts, their antimicrobial activity against S. aureus ATCC 25923 E.coli 25322 C.albicans investigated.The lethal effect extract evalu...

The strain 273 B, the type strain of a H serotype of Bacillus thuringiensis not yet characterized: B. thuringiensis subsp. cameroun, serotype H32, was isolated from soil samples collected in Cameroon. This strain produces cuboidal parasporal bodies composed of two major proteins of 53 kDa and 35 kDa. N-terminal sequences of the major proteins share no homology with published sequences. Only the...

The principle reason for the examination article is to assess genoprotective action of herbal source leaves extract Indigofera tinctoria against insecticidal such as transfluthrin using Allium cepa a biomarker. has potential secondary metabolites, inorganic elements in phytochemical screening and different functional groups also. So that It possesses excellent anticancer, anti-inflammatory, ant...

INTRODUCTION Tick-borne diseases such as Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and ehrlichiosis are a significant concern for many thousands of workers who have frequent and unavoidable exposure to tick-infested habitats. Many North Carolina state employees with outdoor occupations report multiple tick bites each year, indicating that existing tick preventive strategies may be underutiliz...

The genotypic diversity of two Spanish isolates of Helicoverpa armigera single nucleopolyhedrovirus (HearSNPV) was evaluated with the aim of identifying mixtures of genotypes with improved insecticidal characteristics for control of the cotton bollworm. Two genotypic variants, HearSP1A and HearSP1B, were cloned in vitro from the most pathogenic wild-type isolate of the Iberian Peninsula, HearSN...

BACKGROUND The emergence of multidrug resistant (MDR) pathogens is of great concern to the global health community. Our ability to effectively treat diseases is based on the discovery of potent drugs for the treatment of these challenging diseases. Traditional medicines are one of the major sources for the discovery of safe, effective and economical drug candidates. In order to validate its ant...

new sources of botanical pesticides in the management of sitotroga cerealella (olivier) infesting rice grains are indispensable in farmers’ quest towards achieving maximum protection of their rice produce. in this study, the efficacy of root and stem bark of cleistopholis patens as an insecticidal agent against s. cerealella was investigated at 28 ± 2 ºc and 75 ± 6% relative humidity. moths wer...

Study and research of Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) transgenic plants have opened new ways to combat insect pests. Over the decades, however, insect pests, especially the Lepidopteran, have developed tolerance against Bt delta-endotoxins. Such issues can be addressed through the development of novel toxins with greater toxicity and affinity against a broad range of insect receptors. In this compu...
