Stable genetic transformation of a beneficial arthropod, Metaseiulus occidentalis (Acari: Phytoseiidae), by a microinjection technique.
A microinjection technique has resulted in stable transformation of the western predatory mite Metaseiulus occidentalis. Early preblastoderm eggs within gravid females were microinjected. The needle was inserted through the cuticle of gravid females into the egg, or the tissue immediately surrounding the egg. This maternal injection method resulted in relatively high levels of survival and tran...
متن کاملEffect of Cuneiformis Nucleus Inactivation by Lidocaine Microinjection on the Analgesic Response of Morphine in Rats
The present study was performed to evaluate the analgesic effect of morphine microinjection into the cuneiformis nucleus (CnF) and the effect of inactivation of this area by lidocaine on pain modulation. Rats were anaesthetized by thiopental (45-60 mg/kg/i.p.) and placed in a stereotaxic instrument, and then a guide cannula was implanted just one mm above the CnF. Following surgery and recovery...
متن کاملEfficient Transformation of Oil Palm Protoplasts by PEG-Mediated Transfection and DNA Microinjection
BACKGROUND Genetic engineering remains a major challenge in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) because particle bombardment and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation are laborious and/or inefficient in this species, often producing chimeric plants and escapes. Protoplasts are beneficial as a starting material for genetic engineering because they are totipotent, and chimeras are avoided by regeneratin...
متن کاملElectromechanical microinjection of pink bollworm Pectinophora gossypiella embryos increases survival.
We report and compare methods and apparatus for injection of pink bollworm, Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders), embryos. Injection with an electromechanical device resulted in 59% survival of embryos. Previous techniques relying on a mechanical manipulator resulted in 8% survival. Pink bollworm (PBW) embryo injection technology is based in part on methods developed for injection and genetic tr...
متن کاملMicroinjection of transforming ras protein induces c-fos expression.
Microinjection of p21ras induced c-fos protein accumulation in three types of 3T3 cells. The induction was rapid and efficient and persisted for many hours. In addition, anti-ras antibody dramatically reduced c-fos accumulation after serum stimulation of injected cells. However, cells which expressed p21ras continuously did not maintain a high level of c-fos expression.
