Transgenic Plant-Produced Hydrolytic Enzymes and the Potential of Insect Gut-Derived Hydrolases for Biofuels [PDF]
Various perennial C4 grass species have tremendous potential for use as lignocellulosic biofuel feedstocks. Currently available grasses require costly pre-treatment and exogenous hydrolytic enzyme application to break down complex cell wall polymers into

Molecular Cloning and Expression Analysis of the Endogenous Cellulase Gene MaCel1 in Monochamus alternatus [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to characterize the endogenous cellulase gene MaCel1 of Monochamus alternatus, which is an important vector of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, a pine wood nematode, which causes pine wilt disease (PWD). In this study, MaCel1 was

Efeitos em curto prazo das variáveis climáticas sobre a revoada de alados de térmitas capturados por armadilhas não atrativas [PDF]
Termite alates are the main responsible for the rising of new colonies and the increasing of species area. The termites’ swarm are a result of several complex behavioral responses that are influenced by regional weather patterns. In view of this, the aim

Facultative parthenogenesis in the Ryukyu drywood termite Neotermes koshunensis
Parthenogenesis is a relatively rare reproductive mode in nature compared to sex. In social insects, the evolution of parthenogenesis has a notable impact on their life histories. Some termites with parthenogenetic ability produce numerous non-dispersing supplementary queens asexually, whereas other castes are produced via sexual reproduction.
