Analysis on the arcelin expression in bruchid pest resistant wild pulses using real time RT-qPCR.

چکیده
Arcelin, the antimetabolic protein from wild pulses is a known natural insecticidal molecule. Wild pulses with high arcelin content could serve as potential source to. increase the levels of insect resistance in cultivated pulse crops. In this study, arcelin (Arl) gene expression was screened in seven stored product insect pest resistant wild pulse varieties using real time RT-qPCR. Arcelin gene specific real time PCR primers were synthesized from arcelin mRNA sequence of the wild pulse variety, Lablab purpureus. The results revealed different levels of arcelin gene expression in the tested varieties. Canavalia virosa registered significantly high content indicating its suitability for utilization of arcelin gene in developing stored product insect pest resistance with other cultivated pulses.

Nucleotide Sequence of a Genomic Clone Encoding Arcelin, a Lectin-Like Seed Protein from Phaseolus vulgaris.
Arcelin is a novel seed protein first found in several accessions of the wild Mexican bean, Phaseolus vulgaris L. var aborigeneus (8). It is closely related to bean lectin, both at the amino acid and nucleotide levels (5). There are five allelic variants of arcelin (4, 6). The Arc 1 (Table I, Fig. 1) protein migrates as two bands on polyacrylamide gels with Mr of 35,000 to 38,000. These two ban...
متن کاملAnalysis of bruchid resistance in the wild common bean accession G02771: no evidence for insecticidal activity of arcelin 5.
Arcelins are abundant seed storage proteins thought to be implicated in the resistance of wild Phaseolus vulgaris (L.) genotypes against Zabrotes subfasciatus (Boheman), an important storage insect pest of common bean. Here, the insecticidal activity of the arcelin-5 variant that is present in the highly resistant P. vulgaris accession G02771 was investigated. No correlation could be establishe...

This research intended to evaluate the development of Zabrotes subfasciatus (Boh.), a stored-grain pest, on bean genotypes (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) commonly cultivated in the State of Parana and containing arcelin, and the possible resistance of these genotypes to the bruchine. Tests were performed under laboratory conditions (27 masculineC, fotophase 12h, 50 +/- 10 % RH) with the genotypes TPS-...

Abstract Background and Objective: With the development of drug resistance in strains of fungi, there is a considerable resistance of Candida albicans strains to fluconazole. Molecular studies are developing to determine the relationship of such a drug resistance with the increased gene expression of enzymes produced in drug-resistant Candida isolates. We aimed to evaluate the relationship betw...
