Resistance development characteristics of reared German cockroach (Blattodea: Blattellidae) to chlorpyrifos

Scientific Reports, 2021
Understanding the process of resistance development of German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L.), in detail is necessary to potentially delay the development of insecticides resistance by rotation or discontinuation of insecticides at the right time. In

Leishmania infection induces a limited differential gene expression in the sand fly midgut

BMC Genomics, 2020
Background Sand flies are the vectors of Leishmania parasites. To develop in the sand fly midgut, Leishmania multiplies and undergoes various stage differentiations giving rise to the infective form, the metacyclic promastigotes. To determine the changes

Repellency and insecticidal activity of seven Mugwort (Artemisia argyi) essential oils against the malaria vector Anopheles sinensis

Scientific Reports, 2022
Anopheles sinensis is the main vector of malaria with a wide distribution in China and its adjacent countries. The smoke from burning dried mugwort leaves has been commonly used to repel and kill mosquito adults especially in southern Chinese provinces ...

Mycobacterium smegmatis, a Promising Vaccine Vector for Preventing TB and Other Diseases: Vaccinomics Insights and Applications

Vaccines, 2023
Mycobacterium smegmatis (M.sm) is frequently used as an alternative model organism in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) studies. While containing high sequence homology with M.tb, it is considered non-pathogenic in humans.

The complete mitogenome of the Paranticopsis xenocles (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae: Papilioninae) and phylogenetic implications

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
Paranticopsis xenocles Doubleday belongs to the Paranticopsis of Papilionidae and is mainly distributed in China mainland. Herein, we report the complete mitogenome of P. xenocles reconstructing from Illumina sequence data. The mitogenome is 15,187 bp in

Effects of stable ectopic expression of the primary sex determination gene Yob in the mosquito Anopheles gambiae

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Mosquito-borne diseases, such as malaria, are controlled primarily by suppressing mosquito vector populations using insecticides. The current control programmes are seriously threatened by the emergence and rapid spread of resistance to ...

Engineering a minimal cloning vector from a pUC18 plasmid backbone with an extended multiple cloning site [PDF]

, 2018
Minimal plasmids play an essential role in many intermediate steps in molecular biology. They can for example be used to assemble building blocks in synthetic biology or be used as intermediate cloning plasmids that are ideal for PCR-based mutagenesis ...

Molecular dissection of the mechanism by which EWS/FLI expression compromises actin cytoskeletal integrity and cell adhesion in Ewing sarcoma. [PDF]

, 2014
Ewing sarcoma is the second-most-common bone cancer in children. Driven by an oncogenic chromosomal translocation that results in the expression of an aberrant transcription factor, EWS/FLI, the disease is typically aggressive and micrometastatic upon ...
