Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022 Little is known about how variation in host resource quantity affects pathogen co‐infections. Here, we show that changes in dietary quantity do not alter mortality in mixed pathogen infections in an insect host. However, a virus and a fungus did respond differently to changes in host nutritional status through subtle changes in duration of infection ...

Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 We established a mathematical model based on the sense of biological survey in the field of agriculture and introduced various control methods on how to prevent the crops from destructive pests. Basically, there are two main stages in the life cycle of natural enemies like insects: mature and immature.

Ingestion and Defecation of Recombinant and Wild-Type Nucleopolyhedroviruses by Scavenging and Predatory Arthropods [PDF]
Environmental Entomology, 2000 Wild-type and recombinant nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs) were compared with respect to their potential for environmental transport by the predatory spined soldier bug Podisus maculiventris (Say), the scavenging fly Sarcophaga bullata (Parker), and the house cricket Acheta domesticus (L.).

In vitro phagocytosis of occlusion bodies of nucleopolyhedroviruses by insect cell lines.
Applied Entomology and Zoology, 2001 The phagocytosis of five established cell lines, IPLB-Sf-5-5C, UCR-Se-1, NTU-Sl-1A, NTU-Pn-HH, and IPLB-Ld652Y was examined by fluoresbrite carbosylate particle uptake. The phagocytic action of the Sf-5-5C cells was highly efficient compared to other cells, while Pn-HH cells showed no phagocytic action.

Interactions between baculoviruses and entomophagous insects
Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2020 Some laboratory studies revealed that predators can readily attack and consume virus-infected prey with no detrimental effects on their biological parameters. Most tested predacious species did not discriminate between healthy and virus-infected prey. In

Viruses, 2022 MicroRNAs (miRNAs), are a novel class of gene expression regulators, that have been found to participate in regulating host–virus interactions. However, the function of insect-derived miRNAs in response to virus infection is poorly understood.

Viruses, 2021 Enhancins are metalloproteinases that facilitate baculovirus infection in the insect midgut. They are more prevalent in granuloviruses (GVs), constituting up to 5% of the proteins of viral occlusion bodies (OBs).

Pesticide Biochemistry and PhysiologyThe fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a notorious invasive pest wreaking havoc on various crops globally. Nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs) are viral pathogens that specially target lepidopteran pests. However, the homologous virus, Spodoptera frugiperda multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (SfMNPV), has not been ...

Codon usage in nucleopolyhedroviruses
Journal of General Virology, 2000 Phylogenetic analyses based on baculovirus polyhedrin nucleotide and amino acid sequences revealed two major nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) clades, designated Group I and Group II. Subsequent phylogenetic analyses have revealed three Group II subclades, designated A, B and C.

Insects, 2020 Baculoviruses (BV) are highly effective against lepidopteran pests of economic importance such as Spodoptera exigua. The combined use of entomopathogens and macrobiological control agents requires the study of their relationships.
