Pollinating insects act as agents for transferring pollen to the pistil that leads increase of quality seed production. Since carrot is propagation through seed, insect pollination are important in reproduction crop. The purpose this study was observe diversity and activity pollinating on flowers Experimental Garden Agricultural Technology Research Assessment Installation (IP2TP) Berastagi. Sca...

Search for inhibitors to insect proteases is one of many strategies control pests. Previous work has demonstrated successful purification effective from plant origin. Thus, the current study attempted purify protease locally available medicinal plants. The that ethanolic extracts Mimosa diplotricha leaves caused a significant 80% reduction in bovine trypsin activity. inhibitory property protein...

Variation in the type of tissue that larvae feed on can produce marked differences in developmental rate and body size, which can compromise predictions of minimum postmortem interval. A series of experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of fat content in the diet on larval growth in Chrysomya megacephala (Fabricius) (Diptera: Calliphoridae), an important forensic blowfly species in...

Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate the post-embryonic development of Chrysomya putoria (Wiedemann 1818) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) reared on a diet of gizzard or gizzard/agar homogenate, with a diet of beef used as the control. Four replicates per treatment were performed (60 mL of each diet). The gizzard (60%), distilled water, and agar homogenate were combined in a blender. Ea...
