The search for biological control agents of mosquitoes is an important component of the Steering Committee of the Scientific Workine Group on Biological Control of Vectors (UNDP7 WORLD BANK/WHO Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases). Such searches may eventually provide additional biological control agents for use against disease vectors in tropical countries and also...

Anthracnose caused by the Colletotrichum scovillei is main diseases of cayenne pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.) that affect on plant productivity. The control pathogenic fungi has been widely reported utilizing biological agents applied in biofungicides. Bacillus spp. was to have antagonistic abilities against several fungus. purpose this study determine ability species scovillei. begins rejuven...

Disruption of protein quality control can be detrimental, having toxic effects on single cell organisms and contributing to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Huntington's in humans. Here, we examined the effects of polyglutamine (polyQ) aggregation in a major fungal pathogen of humans, Candida albicans, with the goal of identifying new approaches to disable this fu...

CORTISONE and hydrocortisone are now widely used in the treatment of ocular inflammations, particularly in allergic conditions such as phlyctenular keratoconjunctivitis, vernal conjunctivitis, scleritis, uveitis, and some kinds of keratitis. In the treatment of diseases in the anterior segment of the eye, an inexpensive topical application in the form of a suspension or ointment may be used wit...

purpose: this investigation was undertaken to evaluate the potency of metarhizium anisoplea as a biological alternative to the biological control of german cockroaches. materials & methods: the fungal spores were applied against the male and female german cockroach, using two bioassay methods, viz the submerge application and the injection. the data was analysed and the mean mortality was ...

to determine the effective factors on persistent diarrhea in under five year old children (un5), a total of 1341 subjects were selected between cases referred to sanandaj children hospital for diarrhea in the period between 1st june and 22nd october 1994. the children were questioned for prolongation of diarrheal episode after 14 days of its onset. the investigation showed that the duration of ...

Abstract Soybean rust caused by the fungus Phakopsora pachyrhizi is one of most destructive diseases to soybean production worldwide. For rapid diagnosis and control rust, we developed a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay that targets P . -specific gene ( Phapa_6409908 ) identified from comparative genomic analysis 61 Pucciniomycotina strains. Using set screened primers optimiz...

The use of biological control agents (BCAs) to cope with diseases has received considerable attention owing its high efficiency and environmental safety. aim our study was investigate the potential role Pseudomonas mediterranea pretreatment in response lemon [Citrus limon (L.) Burm. f.] against mal secco, which is a devastating citrus disease caused by fungus Plenodomus tracheiphilus. RNAseq an...

Background: homeopathy is a means permitted in organic agriculture to control disease and plagues; biotherapics are practical for farmers intervene on the health of plants agro-ecological systems production. Tomato-plants can be affected by several diseases, one most significant ones Brazil early blight, caused fungus Alternaria solani, due damage it causes its wide distribution country. Aims: ...
