Baseline Susceptibility of Spodoptera frugiperda Populations Collected in India towards Different Chemical Classes of Insecticides

Insects, 2021
Fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda, is a major pest of maize in the Americas and recently invaded the Eastern hemisphere. It was first detected in India in 2018 and is considered a major threat to maize production.

Restoration of daptomycin sensitivity with adjunctive cefazolin is associated with C-terminal MprF mutations in MRSA bacteremia isolates

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
Daptomycin (DAP) or vancomycin (VAN) resistance can result in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia treatment failure. Clinical trials have not yielded a clear approach to MRSA combination therapy.

Complex Interactions between Fungal Avirulence Genes and Their Corresponding Plant Resistance Genes and Consequences for Disease Resistance Management

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
During infection, pathogens secrete an arsenal of molecules, collectively called effectors, key elements of pathogenesis which modulate innate immunity of the plant and facilitate infection.

Evaluating Cross-Resistance to Cry and Vip Toxins in Four Strains of Helicoverpa armigera With Different Genetic Mechanisms of Resistance to Bt Toxin Cry1Ac

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Evolution of resistance by pests has diminished the efficacy of transgenic crops producing insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). In China, where transgenic cotton producing Bt toxin Cry1Ac has been planted since 1997, field control ...

Bacillus thuringiensis and Chlorantraniliprole Trigger the Expression of Detoxification-Related Genes in the Larval Midgut of Plutella xylostella

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Background: Diamondback moth (DBM), Plutella xylostella (L.), has developed resistance to many insecticides. The molecular mechanism of DBM resistance to Bt-G033A combined with chlorantraniliprole (CL) remains undefined.Methods: In this study, field ...

Recognition and Management of Resistant Hypertension [PDF]

Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2016
Despite improvements in hypertension awareness and treatment, 30%–60% of hypertensive patients do not achieve BP targets and subsequently remain at risk for target organ damage. This therapeutic gap is particularly important to nephrologists, who frequently encounter treatment-resistant hypertension in patients with CKD. Data are limited on how best to

Susceptibilities of the Invasive Fall Armyworm (Spodopterafrugiperda) to the Insecticidal Proteins of Bt maize in China

Toxins, 2022
To control the fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (Smith), a serious threat to maize production in China, the Chinese government has issued biosafety certificates for transgenic insect-resistant maize expressing Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) toxins

Managing drug resistant tuberculosis [PDF]

BMJ, 2008
#### Summary points Antituberculosis drug resistance is increasing both in the United Kingdom and internationally.1 2 It has come to greater public attention with the emergence of extensively drug resistant tuberculosis (box 1) in South Africa, where an outbreak proved rapidly fatal among people with advanced HIV infection.3 In this article we review ...
