A series of tacrine–propargylamine derivatives were synthesised and evaluated as possible anti-Alzheimer's disease (AD) agents. Among these derivatives, compounds 3a 3b exhibited superior activities a favourable balance AChE BuChE (3a: IC50 values 51.3 77.6 nM; 3b: 11.2 83.5 nM). Compounds also increased hAChE inhibitory activity compared with tacrine by approximately 5- 28-fold, respectively, low neurotoxicity. Importantly, had lower hepatotoxicity than tacrine. Based on results, could be...

Plant nutrition is connected to defense against insect herbivores, but the exact mechanism underlying effect of nitrogen (N) supply on anti-herbivore capacity eggplants (Solanum melongena) has not been studied in detail. Therefore, we examined impact low (LN, 0.5 mM) and high (HN, 5 nitrate levels eggplant resistance western flower thrips Frankliniella occidentalis (WFT), a major destructive pest. Our results showed that LN plants displayed enhanced responses WFT compared HN plants. This...

Predatory mites (Acari: Phytoseiidae) are the most important beneficial arthropods used in augmentative biological pest control of protected crops around world. However, genomes far less well understood than those insects and evolutionary relationships among mite other chelicerate orders contested, with enigmatic origin at one centres discussion evolution Arachnida.We here report 173 Mb nuclear genome (from 51.75 Gb pairs Illumina reads) predatory mite, Neoseiulus cucumeris, a biocontrol...

Many herbivorous insects rely on plant volatiles to locate their host plants. Vector-borne viral infections induce changes in volatiles, which render infected plants more attractive insect vectors. However, the detailed mechanisms underlying olfactory responses of vectors induced by produced virus-infected are poorly understood. Here, we show that emitted pepper ( Capsicum annuum ) with tomato zonate spot virus (TZSV), particularly volatile cis -3-hexenal, is recognized chemosensory protein...
