Traditionally estimating pesticide effects by measuring only lethal effect may underestimate the total negative effect on beneficial arthropods and sublethal effects should be assessed to estimate the total effect of their applications. In this study, sublethal effect of the acaricide abamectin (Vermectin® 1.8% EC, Giah, Iran) on the predatory mite Phytoseius plumifer (Canestrini &; Fanzago) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) fed on Tetranychus urticae Koch was assessed in laboratory conditions. The adult predators were exposed to the residues of the acaricide on fig leaves and the LC50 value was determined based on a concentration–response analysis. The results showed that sublethal concentrations (LC10, LC20 and LC30) of abamectin severely affected the fecundity and longevity of the treated females of P. plumifer. Furthermore, reproductive and life table parameters of the subsequent generation were affected. The results indicated that adverse effects of abamectin on population growth of P. plumifer were significant, so the results from this study can be used to develop approximate guidelines for the use of abamectin in order to minimize their impact on P. plumifer and related natural enemies. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the radioprotective effects of resveratrol as a natural product that protects against genotoxic actions of 131I in cultured human lymphocytes. Whole-blood samples from human volunteers were treated with resveratrol at doses of 0.5, 1, 5, and 50 μg/mL for 1 h, after which the lymphocytes were incubated with 131I (100 μCi/1.5 mL) for 2 h. The lymphocyte cultures were then mitogenically stimulated to enable evaluation of the number of micronuclei in cytokinesis-blocked binucleated cells. Incubation of lymphocytes with 131I induced genotoxicity, which was reflected by an increase in micronuclei frequency. At the doses tested, resveratrol significantly reduced micronuclei frequency. Maximal protective effects occurred at a dose of 1 μg/mL, with total micronuclei values being reduced by 65 % compared to controls. In conclusion, our results indicate protective effects of resveratrol at low doses against genetic damage and adverse effects induced by 131I administration. 相似文献

Knowledge of the lethal and sublethal effects of pesticides on biological control agents is necessary for successful implementation of integrated pest management programs. The sublethal effect of acaricide fenpyroximate (Ortus®) on performance of females and their offspring of Phytoseius plumifer (Canestrini &; Fanzago), an efficient predator of Tetranychus urticae Koch, was determined under laboratory conditions. The adult predators were exposed to the residues of the acaricide on fig leaves and the LC50 value was determined based on a concentration–response analysis. The results showed that sublethal concentrations of fenpyroximate significantly affected the fecundity and longevity of the treated females of P. plumifer. Reproductive and life table parameters of the subsequent generation were also affected by sublethal concentrations. It could be concluded that sublethal concentrations can significantly reduce the population growth of P. plumifer and this should be considered in integrated pest management programs. 相似文献

DMD gene which is composed of 79 exons is the largest known gene located on X chromosome (Xp21). Point mutations in the dystrophin gene are responsible for 30–35% of cases with DMD/BMD. Mutation analysis of all the exons of the DMD gene is costly in developing countries, therefore, a few of the exons are selected to be analyzed routinely in clinical laboratories. In this study, direct sequencing was used for detection of point mutations in 10 exons of dystrophin gene in patients affected with DMD without detectable large rearrangements. Freely available programs were used to predict the damaging effects of the mutations. Point mutations were successfully detected in three patients. Three novel mutations, two missense mutations located on nonconservative domains and a single nucleotide deletion, were detected. Missense mutations were predicted to change splicing efficiency. Detection of point mutations by DNA analysis followed by prediction of the pathogenecity by using bioinformatic tool might be an asset to provide proper diagnosis or genetic counseling to patients and their family. 相似文献

The synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of heterocyclic analogues of the previously reported LTA(4) hydrolase inhibitor 1b are described. Imidazopyridine and purine analogues are specifically highlighted with several demonstrating excellent potency in our in vitro assays, as well as good oral activity in a mouse ex vivo assay. 相似文献

Understanding intraspecific interactions among Persian oaks is essential to predict the responses of Zagros dry woodlands purely covered by these coppice trees to environmental changes (such as drought) that have direct effects on the sustainability of these woodlands. This investigation attempted to explore the scale-dependent competition among Persian oaks and highlight the impacts of competitive interactions on their biophysical properties (i.e. tree height, diameter at root collar and crown attributes) via point pattern analysis. Structurally different summary statistics were implemented to analyse the spatial pattern of Persian oaks in a pure 9-ha study plot. Nearest neighbour distribution function D(r) indicated that these coppice trees had no nearest neighbours up to the spatial scale of 2 m, and they all had a nearest neighbour at distances shorter than 12 m. Furthermore, pair correlation function g(r) showed the significant dispersion of Persian oaks up to the scale of 5 m, which may be the outcome of intraspecific competition for resources such as soil nutrients and water. As explored by mark variograms γ m (r), Persian oaks of the same size had significant spatial correlations that illustrated the competitive (not facilitative) interactions of these coppice trees in the study plot. Mark correlation function k mm (r) additionally revealed negative correlations of height and radial growth up to large spatial scales. Consequently, the outcome of this study highlighted the significant effects of competitive intraspecific interactions among Persian oak coppice trees on their spatial pattern and biophysical properties. 相似文献

Patients with 13q deletion syndrome are characterized with different phenotypical features depending on the size and location of the deleted region on chromosome 13. These patients fall into three groups: In Group 1, deleted region is in the proximal and does not extend into q32; in Group 2, deleted region involves proximal to the q32 and in Group 3 q33-q34 is deleted. We present two cases with 13q syndrome with two different deleted region and different severity on clinical features: One case with interstitial deletion belongs to the Group 1 with mild mental retardation and minor malformations and the other case with terminal deletion belongs to Group 3 with moderate to severe mental retardation and major malformations. 相似文献

Amniocentesis was carried out at 17 weeks gestation in a 27-year-old woman, following an abnormal maternal serum screening (MSS) test. MSS test was carried out primarily to estimate the risk of trisomy for chromosome 21. The maternal serum markers used were alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG), and unconjugated estriol (uE3), together with maternal age. The fetus was identified as screen-positive for Edward's syndrome (trisomy 18), with low uE3, normal AFP and hCG levels. The calculated risk for trisomy 18 was more than 1:50. To identify any possible chromosomal abnormality, cytogenetic investigation was carried out on the amniotic fluid sample. The fetus's karyotype showed triploidy with 69, XXX chromosome complement in all the metaphase spreads obtained from three different cultures, using GTG banding technique. Upon termination of the fetus, gross abnormalities indicative of triploidy were present in the fetus. 相似文献
