Insect-selective spider toxins targeting voltage-gated sodium channels [PDF]
The voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channel is a target for a number of drugs, insecticides and neurotoxins. These bind to at least seven identified neurotoxin binding sites and either block conductance or modulate Nav channel gating.

Anticarsia gemmatalis nucleopolyhedrovirus from soybean crops in Tamaulipas, Mexico: diversity and insecticidal characteristics of individual variants and their co-occluded mixtures [PDF]
In 1999, Anticarsia gemmatalis nucleopolyhedrovirus (AgMNPV) was introduced into a major soybean-growing region in Tamaulipas, Mexico, for control of its lepidopteran host, Anticarsia gemmatalis Hilbner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae).

Cloning and Characterization of the Apoptotic Suppressor Gene P49 from Spodoptera Litura Nucleopolyhedrovirus [PDF]
Baculoviruses possess two types of genes that can suppress apoptosis (programmed cell death), p35 and inhibitor of apoptosis (iap). The p49 gene of a Malaysian isolate of Spodoptera Iitura nucleopolyhedrovirus (SpltMNPV), a homolougue of baculovirus ...

Determination of Nucleopolyhedrovirus’ Taxonomic Position [PDF]
To date , over 78 genomes of nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs) have been sequenced and deposited in NCBI. How to define a new virus from the infected larvae in the field is usually the first question. Two NPV strains, which were isolated from casuarina moth (

Ingestion and Defecation of Recombinant and Wild-Type Nucleopolyhedroviruses by Scavenging and Predatory Arthropods [PDF]
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.).

Nucleopolyhedrosis Virus of Spodoptera Utura: Influence of Environmental Factors on Efficacy And Improvement for Field Application [PDF]
Chemical pesticides significantly reduce agricultural losses but pose environmental hazards. Their effectiveness are threatened by increasing insect resistance and unwanted destruction of non-target organisms. Nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs) are getting
