Growing hot pepper for cabbage looper, Trichopulsia ni (Hübner) and spider mite, Tetranychus urticae (Koch) control.
With the public perception that synthetic pesticides leave harmful residues in crop produce for human consumption, there has been increased interest in using natural products for pest control. The potential of using fruit extracts of hot pepper for controlling the cabbage looper, Trichopulsia ni (Hübner) and spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch is explored in this investigation. Crude extracts...
متن کاملGenetic Resistance to Bacillus thuringiensis Alters Feeding Behaviour in the Cabbage Looper, Trichoplusia ni
Evolved resistance to xenobiotics and parasites is often associated with fitness costs when the selection pressure is absent. Resistance to the widely used microbial insecticide Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) has evolved in several insect species through the modification of insect midgut binding sites for Bt toxins, and reports of costs associated with Bt resistance are common. Studies on the cost...
متن کاملHost plant driven transcriptome plasticity in the salivary glands of the cabbage looper (Trichoplusia ni)
Generalist herbivores feed on a wide array of plants and need to adapt to varying host qualities and defenses. One of the first insect derived secretions to come in contact with the plant is the saliva. Insect saliva is potentially involved in both the pre-digestion of the host plant as well as induction/suppression of plant defenses, yet how the salivary glands respond to changes in host plant...
متن کاملExpression of biologically active human butyrylcholinesterase in the cabbage looper (Trichoplusia ni).
This investigation examined the utility of three recombinant protein-expression systems (COS cells, insect cells and insect larvae) to cost-effectively produce biologically active human butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE). It was determined that baculovirus-infected insect cells (Sf9 and High 5) expressed 3.5- and 8.2-fold, respectively, more active enzyme than COS-7 cells. Baculovirus-infected cabba...
متن کاملPOPULATION ECOLOGY Cabbage Looper Resistance to a Nucleopolyhedrovirus Confers Cross-Resistance to Two Granuloviruses
Previously,we showed that cabbage loopers (Trichoplusia niHübner) can evolve 20X resistance to the single (S) nucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) of Trichoplusia ni (TnSNPV). In this study, we investigate one potential cost that resistant cabbage loopers may incur, increased susceptibility to other mortality agents. Contrary to expectation, no such cost was observed with any of the six mort...
