Processes of hypoallergenic crops at agricultural biotechnology
Food allergies are a major health concern in industrialized countries.Reduction of allergens in foods, either by food processing or genetic engineering are strategies to minimize the risk of adverse reactions for food allergic patients.Biotechnological approaches can use for the reduction of allergens in plant foods. Because food allergens can be life threathening, a variety of strategies to ab...
متن کاملControl of Agricultural Pests
All over the world a huge effort is being made to fight these pests and now new weapons have been added to man's armoury in this battle. These are radioactive isotopes and radiation sources. Their contribution to the control of agricultural pests is not yet precisely calculable, but several promising lines of attack have been opened up and some concrete r e sults already achieved. The main valu...
متن کاملAlternatives to Chemical Control of Insect Pests
In 2011, practitioners and advocates of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) find themselves addressing agricultural, societal, and political pressures worldwide resulting from human population growth. This growth brings simultaneous burdens of sustaining a steady food supply; these include preventing losses from pests, dealing with increased human global travel, which in turn intensifies opportuni...
متن کاملInsect defence: its impact on microbial control of insect pests
Insects are the earliest and most diverse taxon of animals accounting for more species than all other animals put together because of their high reproductive potential and varied niche. Though cellular reactions like phagocytosis, nodulation and encapsulation and humoral reaction through secretion of antibacterial proteins are known for fungus and bacterial invaders, little is known about insec...
متن کاملBt crops benefit natural enemies to control non-target pests
Crops producing insecticidal crystal (Cry) proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) control important lepidopteran pests. However, pests such as aphids not susceptible to Cry proteins may require other integrated pest management (IPM) tactics, including biological control. We fed aphids on Bt and non-Bt plants and analyzed the Bt protein residue in aphids and compared the effects of Bt plants ...
