Evaluation of the effect of MbNPV on cabbage moth, Plutella xylostella (Lep.: Plutellidae), in laboratory conditions [PDF]
Cabbage moth, Plutella xylostella L., is the most important pest in cabbage and canola cultures in Iran. Nuclear polyhedrosis viruses are known as important natural enemies of this pest. Because of economic importance of cabbage moth and the necessity of

The smell of infection: Disease surveillance in insects using volatile organic compounds
Abstract Insects play crucial roles in nearly every ecosystem and provide a wide array of ecosystem services. However, both managed and wild insect populations face threats from parasites and pathogens, which require surveillance to mitigate. Current infectious disease surveillance methods for insects often involve invasive, time‐consuming and ...

Abstract The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a safety assessment approach for microorganisms intended for use in food or feed chains. In the period covered by this Statement, no new information was found that would change the status of previously recommended QPS taxonomic units (TUs).

Cortactin: A major cellular target of viral, protozoal, and fungal pathogens
Recent advances in research on various viral, protozoal, and fungal pathogens have deepened our understanding of microbial virulence strategies and human disease development. Cortactin, a key host protein involved in actin cytoskeletal dynamics, has emerged as crucial player in host–microbe interactions, with pathogens manipulating its expression and ...

New cell lines from Ephestia kuehniella: Characterization and susceptibility to baculoviruses
New cell lines from embryos of Ephestia kuehniella were recently developed. Primary cultures were initiated in September 2002 from 2 to 4 day old eggs in either modified TC-100 or Ex-Cell 400 medium.
