Methionine Synthase Positively Regulates Plant Defence to Both RNA and DNA Viruses and Is Useful for Developing Broad‐Spectrum Antiviral Resistance in Crops

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant viruses frequently cause severe economic losses in worldwide crop production. Developing broad‐spectrum resistance is the most efficient approach for controlling plant viral diseases. In this work, we found that the 17K protein of barley yellow dwarf viruses (BYDVs), which has multiple functions in viral pathogenesis including acting as ...

Toxic and repellent action of sugarcane bagasse-based lignin against some stored grain insect pests

open access: yesUniversity Journal of Zoology, Rajshahi University, 1970
Laboratory experiments were carried out to investigate the efficacy of sugarcane bagasse-based lignin against four stored grain insect pests viz., Tribolium castaneum, Tribolium confusum, Sitophilus oryzae and Callosobruchus maculatus. Mortality was assessed after 24, 48 and 72 h of treatment and LD50 values were calculated at the respective time ...
