Of guards, decoys, baits and traps: pathogen perception in plants by type III effector sensors

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2016
Effector-triggered immunity (ETI) is conferred by dominant plant resistance (R) genes, which encode predominantly nucleotide-binding and leucine-rich repeat domain proteins (NLRs), against cognate microbial avirulence (Avr) genes, which include bacterial type III secreted effectors (T3Es).

Olfactory basis of cannibalism in grasshoppers (Orthoptera: Acrididae): III. Use of attractants on carbaryl wheat bran bait

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 1994
Two known necrogenic attractants, linoleic acid (18:2) and linolenic acid (18:3), were added to carbaryl bran bait to enhance control of rangeland grasshoppers in southeastern Wyoming. The primary goal was to increase control of species of Gomphocerinae, which normally do not consume bran bait.

Toxic bait for the control of Anoplolepis longipes (Jerdon) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in the Seychelles. III. Selection of toxicants

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 1979
AbstractAttempts were made to find alternative, less persistent, toxicants to aldrin for use in baits against Anoplolepis longipes (Jerd.) in the Seychelles. More than twenty toxicants were tested (some in more than one formulation) for effectiveness as poisons and for repellency to ants at the concentrations used in baits.

Ecologic Studies of Japanese Encephalitis Virus in Japan

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1959
Summary At the Shinhama heronry and nearby Minamigyotoku village near Tokyo, Japan, in 1953, C. tritaeniorhynchus, the major vector of Japanese encephalitis virus in Japan, entered traps baited with Black-crowned Night Herons in numbers 3 to 15 times greater than traps containing egrets or chickens; Blue Magpies, Tree Sparrows, Dusky Thrushes, and Grey

Outdoor attractive targeted sugar bait Phase III trials for malaria control in Kenya, Mali, and Zambia: An individual participant data meta-analysis

Abstract Attractive targeted sugar baits (ATSB) are a potential new class of vector control tool that act through an “attract and kill” mechanism on mosquitoes. We conducted a meta-analysis using data from three large-scale Phase III trials of the Westham Sarabi v1.2 ATSB (0.11% dinotefuran) conducted in Kenya, Mali ...

Studies on the attraction of Simulium damnosum s.l. (Diptera: Simuliidae) to its hosts. III. Experiments with animal-baited traps.

Tropenmedizin und Parasitologie, 1977
In the forest zone of the United Republic of Cameroon, a live chicken proved far more attractive to hunting S. damnosum s.l. than did a live sheep; but in the Sudan-savanna zone, a sheep was more attractive than a chicken. It is suggested that the populations of flies in the two areas represented different species of the S. damnosum s.l.
