Synergy of lepidopteran nucleopolyhedroviruses AcMNPV and SpliNPV with insecticides
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The joint use of baculoviruses and synthetic insecticides for integrated pest management requires the study of the additive, synergistic or antagonistic effects among them on pest mortality. Droplet bioassays were conducted ...
Insecticidal activity of bacillus thuringiensis proteins against coleopteran pests
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Bacillus thuringiensis is the most successful microbial insecticide agent and its proteins have been studied for many years due to its toxicity against insects mainly belonging to the orders Lepidoptera, Diptera and ...
Potential of Cry10Aa and Cyt2Ba, two minority δ-endotoxins produced by Bacillus thuringiensis ser. israelensis, for the control of Aedes aegypti larvae
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Bacillus thuringiensis ser. israelensis (Bti) has been widely used as microbial larvicide for the control of many species of mosquitoes and blackflies. The larvicidal activity of Bti resides in Cry and Cyt δ-endotoxins ...
Baculovirus expression and functional analysis of Vpa2 proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The mode of action underlying the insecticidal activity of the Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) binary pesticidal protein Vpa1/Vpa2 is uncertain. In this study, three recombinant baculoviruses were constructed using Bac-to-Bac ...
Iflavirus covert infection increases susceptibility to nucleopolyhedrovirus disease in Spodoptera exigua
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Naturally occurring covert infections in lepidopteran populations can involve multiple viruses with potentially different transmission strategies. In this study, we characterized covert infection by two RNA viruses, ...
Domain shuffling between Vip3Aa and Vip3Ca: chimera stability and insecticidal activity against European, American, African, and Asian pests
(MDPI, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis produces insecticidal Vip3 proteins during the vegetative growth phase with activity against several lepidopteran pests. To date, three different Vip3 protein families have been identified ...
