Apoptosis is induced in the haemolymph and fat body of Spodoptera exigua larvae upon oral inoculation with Spodoptera litura nucleopolyhedrovirus.
Spodoptera exigua multinucleopolyhedrovirus (SeMNPV) and Spodoptera litura nucleopolyhedrovirus (SpltNPV) are genetically similar, but the larvae of S. exigua are not susceptible to SpltNPV. The aim of this study was to identify whether any process was inhibiting SpltNPV infection at some point. S. exigua larvae infected with a high concentration of wild-type SpltNPV by oral inoculation produce...
متن کاملActive role of fatty acid amino acid conjugates in nitrogen metabolism in Spodoptera litura larvae.
Since the first fatty acid amino acid conjugate (FAC) was isolated from regurgitant of Spodoptera exigua larvae in 1997 [volicitin: N-(17-hydroxylinolenoyl)-L-glutamine], their role as elicitors of induced responses in plants has been well documented. However, studies of the biosyntheses and the physiological role of FACs in the insect have been minimal. By using (14)C-labeled glutamine, glutam...
متن کاملEfficient incorporation of free oxygen into volicitin in Spodoptera litura common cutworm larvae.
Volicitin [N-(17-hydroxylinolenoyl)-L-glutamine] has previously been identified from the lepidopteran larval regurgitant as an elicitor of plant volatile emission. The efficient incorporation of free oxygen into volicitin by Spodoptera litura larvae is demonstrated here by rearing them under (18)O(2) for three days. (18)O-labeling of the hydroxyl group of volicitin was confirmed by liquid chrom...
متن کاملBiotransformation of sinesetin by the larvae of the common cutworm (Spodoptera litura).
Biotransformation of sinesetin (1) by larvae of Spodoptera litura was investigated. Compound 1 was converted to a new flavonoid, (+)-5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxyflavone-6-O-beta-D-glucoside (4), and two known flavones, 4'-hydroxy-5,6,7,3'-tetramethoxyflavone (2) and 6-hydroxy-5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxyflavone (3). These structures were established by IR, HR-EI-MS, HR-FAB-MS, 1D NMR, and 2D NMR spectral s...
متن کاملBiotransformation of (-)-(1R,4S)-Menthone and (+)-(1S,4R)-Menthone by the Common Cutworm Spodoptera litura Larvae.
Using biotransformation as a biocatalytic process has the advantage of being able to proceed under mild conditions and with high regio- and enantioselectivity. This study investigated the biotransformation of (-)-(1R,4S)-menthone (1) and (+)-(1S,4R)-menthone (2) by Spodoptera litura larvae. Compound 1 was converted to (-)-(1R,4S)-7-hydroxymenthone (1-1), (+)-(1R,3S,4S)-7-hydroxyneomenthol (1-2)...
