Gene Expression Associated With Behaviour Manipulation in Wood Ants Infected With Larval Lancet Fluke, Dicrocoelium dendriticum

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 20, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Many ant species show dramatic shifts in behaviour when infected with parasites, but the molecular basis of these behavioural changes is not well understood. An example is the wood ant, Formica aserva, which serves as an intermediate host for the lancet liver fluke, Dicrocoelium dendriticum.

Physical and genetic map of the Wiseana nucleopolyhedrovirus genome

Journal of General Virology, 2000
Wiseana nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) is the major pathogen of the New Zealand endemic pasture pest, Wiseana spp. To characterize this potential biological control agent, the genome of a virus isolated from Wiseana signata was purified and cloned. The complete genome was cloned as BamHI or HindIII restriction fragments, which were mapped by Southern ...

Promising Prodiginins Biological Activities

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Prodiginins are a large family of at least 34 pyrrolic compounds, including the well‐studied red pigment prodigiosin. Prodiginins are produced by several microorganisms displaying broad biological activities, including antimicrobial, antiviral, antiparasitic, antiproliferative, and immunosuppressive activities.

Recommended dosage and environmental risk assessment of insecticides registered on main pyralid borers in China

New Plant Protection, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2025.
Based on the registration information of insecticides for controlling the main pyralid borers, active ingredients with high dosages were identified and analyzed based on formulations and target pests. Additionally, the environmental risks on honeybees were assessed.

The Function of TER94 of Spodoptera frugiperda 9 Cells When Infected With Invertebrate Iridescent Virus‐6

Journal of Basic Microbiology, Volume 65, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The 118 L protein in the envelope of the Invertebrate iridescent virus 6 (IIV6) is responsible for binding to receptors on the surface of permissive cells. We previously elucidated its function by silencing its gene and neutralizing the protein with antibodies.

Genomic Sequencing and Analysis of Sucra jujuba Nucleopolyhedrovirus

PLoS ONE, 2014
The complete nucleotide sequence of Sucra jujuba nucleopolyhedrovirus (SujuNPV) was determined by 454 pyrosequencing. The SujuNPV genome was 135,952 bp in length with an A+T content of 61.34%. It contained 131 putative open reading frames (ORFs) covering 87.9% of the genome.

Environmental factors affecting RNAi efficacy: Temperature but not plant cultivar influences Colorado potato beetle's response to insecticidal dsRNA

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 581-592, August 2025.
Colorado potato beetle's RNA interference (RNAi) response was enhanced when insecticidal dsactin was consumed at high temperatures. The enhanced RNAi outcomes at high temperatures were not a function of dose or the expression of core RNAi genes. The potato cultivar consumed by Colorado potato beetle larvae did not affect RNAi outcomes, but larvae did ...

Sequence and Organization of the Mamestra configurata Nucleopolyhedrovirus Genome

Virology, 2002
The nucleotide sequence of the genome of the nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) from Mamestra configurata (MacoNPV, isolate 90/2), a group II NPV, was determined and analyzed. The MacoNPV DNA genome consists of 155,060 bp and has an overall G+C content of 41.7%.

New nucleopolyhedrovirus isolate in the management of Spodoptera eridania

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
Abstract Spodoptera eridania is considered a polyphagous pest, as it attacks several crops. The aim of this study was to identify a virus isolate present in symptomatic S. eridania caterpillars. The virus sample was extracted and OBs purification performed.
