Alternative Host Model To Evaluate Aeromonas Virulence [PDF]
ABSTRACT Bacterial virulence can only be assessed by confronting bacteria with a host. Here, we present a new simple assay to evaluate Aeromonas virulence, making use of Dictyostelium amoebae as an alternative host model.

Efficient Batch Update of Unique Identifiers in a Distributed Hash Table for Resources in a Mobile Host [PDF]
Resources in a distributed system can be identified using identifiers based on random numbers. When using a distributed hash table to resolve such identifiers to network locations, the straightforward approach is to store the network location directly in

The importance of alternative host plants as reservoirs of the cotton leaf hopper, Amrasca devastans, and its natural enemies [PDF]
Many agricultural pests can be harboured by alternative host plants but these can also harbour the pests’ natural enemies. We evaluated the capacity of non-cotton plant species (both naturally growing and cultivated) to function as alternative hosts for ...

Genome landscapes and bacteriophage codon usage [PDF]
Across all kingdoms of biological life, protein-coding genes exhibit unequal usage of synonmous codons. Although alternative theories abound, translational selection has been accepted as an important mechanism that shapes the patterns of codon usage in ...

Maintenance of specificity in sympatric host-specific fig/wasp pollination mutualisms [PDF]
Background Fig/wasp pollination mutualisms are extreme examples of species-specific plant-insect symbioses, but incomplete specificity occurs, with potentially important evolutionary consequences. Why pollinators enter alternative hosts, and the fates of

Analyzing the Mass-Rearing System of the California Red Scale Parasitoid Aphytis melinus (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) [PDF]
Results from studies to improve mass rearing production of the parasitoid Aphytis melinus De Bach (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) are presented. Parasitoid production was carried out following standard commercial procedures using an alternative host ...

Leaf Consumption and Preference to Conyza sp., Conventional and Bt Soybean by Helicoverpa armigera [PDF]
: Helicoverpa armigera caterpillars are polyphagous and exhibit high migratory potential. Given the traits of this pest, alternative hosts located in or near the crop stand may support the survival and permanence of H. armigera in the field.
