Emerging challenges of managing and interpreting large amounts of complex biological data have given rise to the growing field of computational biology. We investigated the applicability of an integrated systems toxicology approach on five selected pesticides to get an overview of their modes of action in humans, to group them according to their modes of action, and to hypothesize on their pote...

Linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) is an important oilseed and fiber crop grown both for its seed as well fiber.It widely cultivated in Northern India during the Rabi season. It suffers from a variety of diseases among which Alternaria blight caused by lini one most yield limiting factors India. The efficacy botanicals (neem, ginger, garlic, bougainvilla eucalyptus extract), bio-agents (T. harzia...

The genetic architecture of quantitative characters in plants can be influenced by stress due to environmental changes, combination with the decrease organism’s average performance, resulting and variances. main objective this study was determine how high-temperature affects sensitivity three populations soybean foliar blight pathogen Rhizoctonia solani AG-1 IA from Mato Grosso, Maranhão, Tocan...

ABSTRACT The adequacy of spraying technology in the control Asian rust to factors related soybean cultivars and fungicide type is fundamental for efficiency this disease. In context, objective was evaluate chemical deposition applied crop, according different volumes spray nozzles. Four field experiments were set up during 2014/2015 season, each carried out with one cultivar, using: NA 5909 RR®...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the toxicity of some pesticides used in chrysanthemum crops to eggs and nymphs of Orius insidiosus (Say). The bioassays were carried out at 25 ± 2oC, 70 ± 10% RH and 12h photophase. For the tests with eggs, stems of Bidens pilosa L. previously exposed to predator oviposition were dipped for five seconds in aqueous dilution of the pesticides, using 40 ...

Ethylenebisdithiocarbamate (EBDC) fungicides are the most important class of organic fungicides and exhibit a high degree of carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, and neurotoxicity. For that reason, the safe application of these fungicides in practice requires a convenient method for their determination, applicable to biological fluids. We describe a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) assay...

An wspore germination technique was used to study the effectiveness of 27 fungicides, including some systemic ones, in inhibiting germination at various stages. Among the chemicals tested, Mersil, PMA10, and Panogen, each at a concentration of 500 ppm active ingredient, inhibited germination about 75%. Of the nonmercurial compounds, mancozeb and ethazole were the best giving about 60% inhibitio...

This laboratory bioassay focused on lethal and sublethal effects of five insecticides (chlorantraniliprole, cyantraniliprole, spinetoram, novaluron, and lambda-cyhalothrin) and two fungicide treatments (sulfur and a mixture of copper hydroxide and mancozeb) on the predatory mired bug, Deraeocoris brevis (Uhler) (Hemiptera: Miridae) using second instars and adult males and females. Formulated pe...
