Varicella (chickenpox) is an infectious disease caused by the highly contagious varicella zoster virus with a secondary attack rate greater than 90%. From this perspective, we aimed to establish basis for national vaccine policy reviewing vaccination programs and policies of countries that have introduced universal vaccinations. As result spread varicella, increasing number are providing 2-dose vaccinations universally expanding their use. In practice, efficacy effectiveness differ among...
Oral toxicity of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) specific to integrin β1 subunit (SeINT) was known in a polyphagous insect pest, Spodoptera exigua. For an application the dsRNA control this study prepared transformed Escherichia coli expressing SeINT.The expression driven by T7 polymerase overexpressed inducer E. coli. The produced amount proportional number cultured bacteria. bacteria gave significant oral S. exigua larvae with reduction SeINT expression. resulting mortality increased fed...
Cabbage is a major vegetable crop over the world. Various insect pests can affect cabbage production. Excessive spray of chemical insecticides lead to development insecticide resistance with various adverse effects on environment and humans. Brassica leaf beetle, Phaedon brassicae Baly, coleopteran pest. Both larvae adults cause damages cabbage. The objective this study was develop an effective microbial against P. by adding immunosuppressive agent Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). chosen from...
ABSTRACT: It has been unclear whether the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella can overwinter in Korean field conditions. This study determined overwintering conditions of P. by conducting exposure tests based on its cold tolerance and monitoring populations direct examination larval habitats capturing adults with sex pheromone traps. In addition, were analyzed using polymorphic genetic markers to trace their sources. When all immatu re stage sof exposed -5 ℃, which was temperature much...
Translational control is a strategy that various viruses use to manipulate their hosts suppress acute antiviral response. Polydnaviruses, group of insect double-stranded DNA symbiotic some endoparasitoid wasps, are divided into two genera: ichnovirus (IV) and bracovirus (BV). In IV, Cys-motif genes known as host translation-inhibitory factors (HTIF). The genome wasp Cotesia plutellae contains gene (Cp-TSP13) homologous an HTIF teratocyte-secretory protein 14 (TSP14) Microplitis croceipes....
The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella, overwinters in some protected areas Korea. Using a sex pheromone trap, the adults were monitored since occurrence of overwintering populations. In Andong, P. xylostella exhibited four adult peaks year. Biological characters, such as cold tolerance, insecticide susceptibility, and developmental rate, analyzed showed significant variation among different local Population genetic was assessed with molecular markers, which initial high populations...
