Moths depend on pheromone communication for mate finding and synthetic pheromones are used for monitoring or disruption of pheromone communication in pest insects. Here we produce moth sex pheromone, using Nicotiana benthamiana as a plant factory, by transient expression of up to four genes coding for consecutive biosynthetic steps. We specifically produce multicomponent sex pheromones for two ...

Unicellular organisms such as yeasts have evolved to survive environmental stresses by rapidly reorganizing the genomic expression program to meet the challenges of harsh environments. The complex adaptation mechanisms to stress remain to be elucidated. In this study, we developed Stress Transcription Factor Identification Algorithm (STFIA), which integrates gene expression and TF-gene associat...

to identify the horticultural of plant parasitic nematodes in northern khorasan province, 170 soil and plant root samples were collected during different seasons of years 2009 and 2010. nematodes were extracted through centrifugal-flotation method, specimens then being fixed according to modified seinhorst method and transferred to glycerin before making measurements (de grisse, 1969). througho...

the charge transfer (ct) complex formation of benzonitrile as acceptor with the aromatic donors o-, m-, p-xylene and ethylbenzene in ccl4 solutions is investigated by chemical shift measurements relative to an external reference. the equilibrium parameters, q and dad of their weak molecular complexes, as found numerically modified cresswel- allred (c-a) method, is compared with graphically scat...

The existing analysis reports a reconstruction scheme of the newly proposed gravity say f ( Q ) through scale factor form a(t)=a</mml:...

We study static traversable wormholes obtained by Morris and Thorne in general relativity (GR) the framework of a modified theory gravity. The gravitational action $f(R,T)$ is function Ricci scalar ($R$) trace energy momentum tensor ($T$). For gravity $f(R,T)=R+\alpha R^{2}+\lambda T$, where $\alpha$ $\lambda$ are constants, we obtain wormhole solutions (WH) with normal matter for relevant shap...
