Transcriptome Analysis of Female and Male Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) Identifies Sex-related Genes

open access: yesHorticultural Plant Journal, 2021
Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata is an emerging horticultural pest of Solanaceae plants in Asia. Here, we employed transcriptome sequencing of three female and three male H. vigintioctopunctata libraries to identify sex-related genes.

Can application technology help to manage pesticide resistance?

open access: yesProceedings of the New Zealand Plant Protection Conference, 1996
Low and/or uneven spray deposits are frequently implicated in failure to control pests or diseases, but little is known about the resistance selection pressures imposed by such deposits. Overdosing represents inefficient pesticide use and may select for development of high levels of single gene resistance.

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Effects of mefentrifluconazole on soil microorganisms, enzymes and earthworms in sandy soil and clay loam of peanut fields

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Our previous study indicated that mefentrifluconazole had a high efficacy in the control of peanut southern blight. However, the soil ecological risks of mefentrifluconazole in peanut fields were largely unknown.
