Amrasca biguttula (Ishida) commonly known as cotton leafhopper is a severe pest of and okra. Not much on this insect at molecular level due to lack genomic transcriptomic data. To prepare for functional studies in insect, we evaluated 15 common housekeeping genes (Tub, B-Tub, EF alpha, GADPH, UbiCF, RP13, Ubiq, G3PD, VATPase, Actin, 18s, 28s, TATA, ETF, SOD Cytolytic actin) during different developmental stages under starvation stress. We selected early (1st 2nd), late (3rd 4th) stage nymphs...
Circadian rhythms are innate biological systems that control everyday behavior and physiology. Furthermore, bilateral interaction between the host’s circadian rhythm gut microbes influences a variety of health ramifications, including metabolic diseases, obesity, mental GALT physiology microbiome population. Therefore, we studying correlation differential gene expression in chicken brain microbiota abundance during rhythms. To understand this, raised freshly hatched chicks under two...
Thrips tabaci is a severe pest of onion and cotton. Due to lack information on its genome or transcriptome, not much known about this insect at the molecular level. To initiate studies in insect, RNA was sequenced; de novo transcriptome assembly analysis were performed. The RNAseq data used identify reference RNAi pathway genes insect. Additionally, feeding demonstrated T. for first time. From assembled 27,836 coding sequence (CDS) with an average size 1236 bp per CDS identified. About 85.4%...
The whitefly Bemisia tabaci is a global invasive pest that causes substantial losses to agricultural crops worldwide either by feeding and transmitting plant viruses. Management of this with insecticides the biggest challenge due developed resistance. RNA interference (RNAi) has been shown be promising strategy control limit viruses spread. present study targets ten potential genes (AQP, CAL, CYCP, K-1, Hsp20, Hsp 40, Hsp70, Hsp90, SNF IAP) have implicated in various vital physiological...
Phenacoccus solenopsis is one of the major polyphagous crop pests in India. Inadequate genomic or transcriptomic resources have limited molecular studies this insect despite its huge economic importance. The existing sequence were supplemented through RNA sequencing, de novo transcriptome assembly and analysis, which generated 12, 925 CDS from 23,643 contigs with an average size 1077.5 bp per 85.1% positive BLAST hits NCBI Non redundant (nr) database. Twenty three genes involved RNAi...
A camptothecin (CPT)-resistant cell line (MCF-7/C4) was established from MCF-7 cells by mutagenic treatment with methylmethanesulfonate and selection CPT. MCF-7/C4 is 30-fold resistant to CPT cross-resistant UV cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum(II) but not VP-16 or ionizing radiation. Topoisomerase I (top1)-mediated cleavable complexes in the presence of CPT, measured oligonucleotide assay alkaline elution, were similar both lines. Other top1 parameters such as protein, RNA levels, DNA relaxation...
Phenacoccus solenopsis, the cotton mealybug (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), is one of major pests in India. Scanty information available on molecular studies this insect due to limited genomic or transcriptomic sequence data. With advancement sequencing technology, enormous and data are being generated, RNAi undertaken insects, which require reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction evaluation. These gene expression normalization mRNA levels with reference genes account for...
<title>Abstract</title> Background Circadian rhythms are innate biological systems that control everyday behavior and physiology. Furthermore, bilateral interaction between the host's circadian rhythm gut microbes influences a variety of health ramifications, including metabolic diseases, obesity, mental health. Several studies have revealed how neurological components interact with GALT physiology microbiome population in host. Keeping these factors regard, we studying correlation...
An outbreak of rice swarming caterpillar, Spodoptera mauritia Boisduval occurred during kharif, 2012 in some parts Dibrugarh district Assam that caused considerable damage to crop its vegetative stage. The was so severe as high twleve caterpillar were found at the base plants day time peak period September and about 805 ha area kharif infested Khowang Tipling area. Moreover, mean larval population density/m2 observed 36.80 against 0.004 non-outbreak year. Standard Precipitation Index (SPI)...
Amrasca biguttula (Ishida) commonly known as cotton leafhopper is a serious pest of and okra. Nutritional requirements or growth physiology for this insect has not been much till date. We developed artificial membrane feeding method which can be further used RNA interference studies. Main components diet were L-cysteine (5.0 mg), glycine (2.0 nicotinic acid (1.0 sucrose (500 K2HPO4(50 ZnCl2 (0.04 Thiamine HCl (0.25 Vitamin B6 Becosules capsule powder (Pfizer Limited, USA) Green food dye...
