Fitness evaluation of Oenopia conglobata contaminata (Menetries) (Col.: Coccinellidae) fed on different diets

Acta Biologica Slovenica, 2019
Due to the importance of coccinellid predators as biological control agents of insect pests, the effects of different factitious and artificial diets on reproductive parameters of Oenopia conglobata contaminata (Menetries) were studied under laboratory ...

Senescent Cell Derived Artificial Vesicle‐Based Senolytic Sonovaccine Platform with Augmented Lymph Node Delivery and Antigen Cross‐Presentation Efficacy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A senolytic sonovaccine platform (SenoVac) is developed, in which senescent cell‐derived vesicles serve as broad senescent cell antigen reservior. The “2‐step” click chemistry strategy for effective lymph node delivery, and ultrasound‐triggered endosomal escape to boost cross‐presentation, ensures efficient senescent cell clearance and disease ...

Use of endogenous plant defensive proteins to confer resistance to aphids in crop plants [PDF]

, 1998
A liquid artificial diet system, which was suitable for bioassay of added compounds, was developed for the glasshouse potato aphid, Aulacorthum solani. The diet supported normal growth and reproduction of this insect.

A Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Atlas of the Ovine Rumen Microbiome Characterizes Lineage‐Specific Metabolic Shifts Associated with Host Heat Tolerance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An optimized single‐cell transcriptomic framework profiles over 60 000 cells to map the ovine rumen microbiome, partitioning the ecosystem into seven cross‐species functional clusters. In heat‐resistant hosts, a lineage‐specific metabolic shift in Anaerovibrio lipolyticus toward a highly glycolytic phenotype contributes to a “nutritional sparing ...

Determining the diet of larvae of western Rock Lobster (Panulirus cygnus) using high-throughput DNA sequencing techniques

, 2012
The Western Australian rock lobster fishery has been both a highly productive and sustainable fishery. However, a recent dramatic and unexplained decline in post-larval recruitment threatens this sustainability.

Binding and toxicity of plant lectins to insects [PDF]

, 2002
The toxicity of plant lectins to insects after oral ingestion was investigated by incorporating the proteins into insect diets. Bioassays carried out using an artificial diet system demonstrated that kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) lectin (PHA) caused a

Rearing the house fly predator Carcinops pumilio (Erichson) (Coleoptera: Histeridae) on an artificial diet

, 2009
A number of concentrations of PRO-PLEX™, a protein rich food additive, were incorporated into an artificial diet to determine its effect on the predatory beetle, Carcinops pumilio (Erichson).

Biological cycle of the greater wax moth Galleria mellonella (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae: Galleriinae) in Panama

Revista Chilena de Entomología
The greater wax moth Galleria mellonella (Linnaeus, 1758), is one of the principal pests in the honeycomb of the European bee Apis mellifera Linnaeus, 1758, around the world. In this experiment, the complete biological cycle of G.
