Insect 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 کاملThe Feasibiility of Using Modified Atmospheres to Control Insect Pests in Museums, 1993
The mortality of all life stages of pests commonly found in museums was evaluated at 55% RH and 25.5°C in a nitrogen atmosphere (less than 0.1% oxygen). The insects studied were webbing clothes moths, furniture carpet beetles, firebrats, cabinet beetles, larder beetles, cigarette beetles, confused flour beetles, cockroaches, powderpost beetles and western drywood termites. The time required for...
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 کاملInsecticidal Properties and Chemical Composition of Conyza Aegyptiaca (L.) Oil: Studies on Two Dipterous Insect Pests
The herb, Conyza aegyptiaca L., was subjected to hydrodistillation process to extract the essential oil from the whole dry plant material. Larvae and adult stages of the mosquito, Anopheles pharoensis, and the housefly, Musca domestica, were used as test model organisms representing two dipterous insect pests of medical importance. Under standard bioassay test methods, the LC50 of the oil accou...
متن کاملPlant Insecticidal Proteins and their Potential for Developing Transgenics Resistant to Insect Pests
Insects cause heavy damage to cultivated crop plants. Production of proteinaceous inhibitors that interfere with the digestive biochemistry of insect pests is one of the naturally occurring defence mechanisms in plants. These proteins include lectins, arcelins and inhibitors of alpha amylases and proteases of various larvae pests. Use of plant genes encoding effective inhibitors of major digest...
