Aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) are agricultural pests for a wide range of economically important crops worldwide. Entomopathogenic fungi have been studied and developed as a biological agents to control hard to control insect pests like the aphid. In particular, secondary metabolites produced by entomopathogenic fungi are being studied as insecticidal substances. This study evaluated the insecticidal activity and characteristics of insecticidal substances in culture filtrate against aphids to confirm the insecticidal substances produced by Metarhizium pinghaense 15R. After treating cotton aphids with the culture filtrate, strong insecticidal activity (100 % insect mortality) was observed on the third day of treatment, and it was confirmed that insecticidal substances in the culture filtrate had high thermal stability. In addition, the physicochemical properties of insecticidal substances in the culture filtrate were evaluated, and it was determined that the insecticidal substances were hydrophobic, with small molecules of 3 kDa or less. Based on these results, it was suspected that the insecticidal substances in the culture filtrate were destruxins (DTXs), which are representative secondary metabolites of Metarhizium known to have insecticidal activity. Through HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) analysis, the presence of DTX A and B was found in all active samples, and it was confirmed that the insecticidal substances of M. pinghaense 15R were DTXs. This study provides primary data for developing biochemical crop protection agents using these insecticidal substances, and we suggest the potential of using insecticidal substances of entomopathogenic fungi as biochemical pesticides in Korea. 相似文献

Strains of Bacillus thuringiensis produce insecticidal proteins. These strains have been isolated from diverse ecological niches, such as soil, phylloplane, insect cadavers and grain dust. To effectively propagate, these strains produce a range of molecules that facilitate its multiplication in a competing environment. In this report, we have examined synthesis of a chitin-binding protein and evaluated its effect on fungi encountered in environment and its interaction with insecticidal proteins synthesized by B. thuringiensis. The gene encoding chitin-binding protein has been cloned and expressed. The purified protein has been demonstrated to interact with Cry insecticidal protein, Cry1Ac by Circular Dichrosim spectroscopy (CD) and in vitro pull down assays. The chitin-binding protein potentiates insecticidal activity of bacillar insecticidal protein, Cry1Ac. Further, chitin-binding protein was fungistatic against several soil fungi. The chitin binding protein is expressed in spore mother cell and deposited along with insecticidal protein, Cry1Ac. It interacts with Cry1Ac to potentiate its insecticidal activity and facilitate propagation of Bacillus strain in environment by inhibiting growth of certain fungi. 相似文献

Insect growth regulators (IGRs) are effective alternatives to chemical insecticides because of their specificity and low environmental toxicity. Entomopathogenic fungi are an important natural pathogen of insects and have been developed as biological control agents. They produce a wide range of secondary metabolites such as antibiotics, pesticides, growth-promoting or inhibiting compounds and insect attracting agents. In this study, to explore novel IGR substances from entomopathogenic fungi, culture extracts of 189 entomopathogenic fungi isolated from Korean soil samples were investigated for their juvenile hormone (JH)-based IGR activities. Whereas none of the culture extracts exhibited JH agonist (JHA) activity, 14 extracts showed high levels of JH antagonist (JHAN) activity. Among them, culture extract of JEF-145 strain, which was identified as Lecanicillium attenuatum, showed the highest insecticidal against Aedes albopictus and Plutella xylostella. At liquid culture condition, JHAN activity was observed in culture soup rather than mycelial cake, indicating that substances with JHAN activity are released from the JEF-145 strain during culture. Furthermore, while extract from solid cultured JEF-145 strain showed insecticidal activities against both A. albopictus and P. xylostella, that from liquid cultured fungi showed insecticidal activity only against A. albopictus, indicating that L. attenuatum JEF-145 strain produces different kinds of secondary metabolites with JHAN activity depending on culture conditions. These results suggested that JHAN substances derived from entomopathogenic fungi could be usefully exploited to develop novel eco-friendly IGR insecticides. 相似文献

The inhibitors of polyamine (PA) biosynthesis such as alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), methylglyoxal bis (guanylhydrazone) (MGBG) and bis (cyclohexylammonium) sulphate (BCHA) have been used to protect crop plants from pathogenic fungi. In this communication the insecticidal activity of these inhibitors on tobacco caterpillar, S. litura has been reported. All the inhibitors exhibited insecticidal activity; MGBG being more effective than others. The results suggest, for the first time, a possible avenue for the control of insect pests by specific inhibition of insect PA biosynthesis. 相似文献

The application of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) and their symbiotic bacteria as biological control approaches depend on their lethal parasites to pest and antifungal activities against plant pathogenic fungi. We have collected 23 symbiotic bacterial strains from 23 EPN isolates gathered from different regions of China. In the present study, the insecticidal and antifungal activities of all these bacterial isolates were evaluated in the laboratory. Bioassay results showed that the broth and crude extract of all these 23 EPN symbiotic bacteria strains have, to a certain extent, oral insecticidal activity and/or growth inhibition to the larvae of Ostrinia furnacalis and antifungal activity against Bipolaris maydis and Curvularia lunata. Among these strains, SY5 exhibited highest insecticidal and antifungal activities to O. furnacalis, B. maydis and C. lunata. The adversity resistance of strain SY5 showed that the antifungal activity of the broth was more stable than the insecticidal activity, and the stability of antifungal activity to B. maydis and C. lunata was different. 相似文献

Entomopathogenic fungal metabolites exhibit a wide variety of insecticidal, antimicrobial, anticancer, antioxidant, and antiviral activities, and they have been suggested as potential candidates for the development of new bioactive agents. The rapid and simple screening of entomopathogenic fungi with such bioactivities is important for investigating bioactive substances. The radical-scavenging and anticancer activities of 28 species and 20 genera of 342 isolates of entomopathogenic fungi were evaluated using only culture filtrates. As a result, 23 isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae var. anisopliae, 1 isolate of Pochonia sp., and 1 isolate of Aspergillus sp. showed high radical-scavenging activity. Additionally, anticancer activity in HCT116 human colon cancer cells was also confirmed for selected culture filtrates. This simple screening method of entomopathogenic fungi using culture filtrates may be useful for the rapid detection of related substances with pharmacological activity from a large number of fungal samples. 相似文献

It was shown that microscopic fungi isolated in plague foci had an antagonistic effect on the plague causative agent. In the majority of the cases it was associated with their insecticidal activity against plague-transmitting fleas. It is expedient to consider the relations revealed between the burrow biocenosis components in investigation of plague enzootic aspects and development of new biological insecticides for control of the infection carriers. 相似文献

Ureases (EC 3.5.1.5) are metalloenzymes that hydrolyze urea into ammonia and CO2. These proteins have insecticidal and fungicidal effects not related to their enzymatic activity. The insecticidal activity of urease is mostly dependent on the release of internal peptides after hydrolysis by insect digestive cathepsins. Jaburetox is a recombinant version of one of these peptides, expressed in Escherichia coli. The antifungal activity of ureases in filamentous fungi occurs at submicromolar doses, with damage to the cell membranes. Here we evaluated the toxic effect of Canavalia ensiformis urease (JBU) on different yeast species and carried out studies aiming to identify antifungal domain(s) of JBU. Data showed that toxicity of JBU varied according to the genus and species of yeasts, causing inhibition of proliferation, induction of morphological alterations with formation of pseudohyphae, changes in the transport of H+ and carbohydrate metabolism, and permeabilization of membranes, which eventually lead to cell death. Hydrolysis of JBU with papain resulted in fungitoxic peptides (∼10 kDa), which analyzed by mass spectrometry, revealed the presence of a fragment containing the N-terminal sequence of the entomotoxic peptide Jaburetox. Tests with Jaburetox on yeasts and filamentous fungi indicated a fungitoxic activity similar to ureases. Plant ureases, such as JBU, and its derived peptides, may represent a new alternative to control medically important mycoses as well as phytopathogenic fungi, especially considering their potent activity in the range of 10−6–10−7 M. 相似文献

Xerocomus chrysenteron is an edible mushroom with insecticidal properties. In an earlier work, we found that proteins are responsible for this toxicity. Here we describe the purification of a approximately 15 kDa lectin, named XCL, from the mushroom. Its cDNA and gDNA were cloned by PCR strategies and a recombinant form was expressed in Escherichia coli. Sequence alignments and sugar specificity showed that this protein is the third member of a new saline-soluble lectin family present in fungi. This protein, either purified from mushroom or expressed in vitro in E. coli, was found to be toxic to some insects, such as the dipteran Drosophila melanogaster and the hemipteran, Acyrthosiphon pisum. The lectin possesses a high insecticidal activity compared to lectin isolated from leguminosae (Lathyrus ochrus) or from the snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis). 相似文献

Soil, enodphytic, and insect-pathogenic micromycetes of the genus Beauveria are widespread in nature and are important producers on mycoinsecticides, enzymes, and pharmacologically usable and toxic compounds. The goal of the work was to determine chemodiagnostic approaches to differentiation of Beauveria cryptic species using the strains B. bassiana BBL and B. pseudobassiana BCu22 by comparing their toxicological properties (insecticidal, antimicrobial, phytotoxic, cytotoxic, and esterase-inhibition activity) and metabolite profiles (TLC and HPLC/DAD patterns) of the extracts from the cultures of these fungi growing on different loose substrates, on solid and liquid media. It was shown that when the strains were cultured in liquid media (SDAY and Adámek medium) and on solid substrates (millet and Czapek agar medium), they could be differentiated by the extract yield and chromatographic profiles, as well as by their insecticidal, antifungal, and cytotoxic activity. Thus, antifungal properties were more pronounced in B. pseudobassiana BCu22 grown in liquid Adámek and SDAY media, while cytotoxic properties were more notable in B. bassiana BBL grown in Adámek medium and on millet. Insecticidal properties of the extracts from these cultures varied depending on the substrate composition. Since the extracts of the studied fungi exhibited a broad spectrum of biological activity, the toxic properties of Beauveria spp. should be considered in the course of assessment of safety of these fungi as bioinsecticides. 相似文献

In decomposer systems, fungi show diverse phenotypic responses to volatile organic compounds of microbial origin (volatiles). The mechanisms underlying such responses and their consequences for the performance and ecological success of fungi in a multitrophic community context have rarely been tested explicitly. We used a laboratory‐based approach in which we investigated a tripartite yeast–mold–insect model decomposer system to understand the possible influence of yeast‐borne volatiles on the ability of a chemically defended mold fungus to resist insect damage. The volatile‐exposed mold phenotype (1) did not exhibit protein kinase A‐dependent morphological differentiation, (2) was more susceptible to insect foraging activity, and (3) had reduced insecticidal properties. Additionally, the volatile‐exposed phenotype was strongly impaired in secondary metabolite formation and unable to activate “chemical defense” genes upon insect damage. These results suggest that volatiles can be ecologically important factors that affect the chemical‐based combative abilities of fungi against insect antagonists and, consequently, the structure and dynamics of decomposer communities. 相似文献

Crystal Structure of the First Plant Urease from Jack Bean: 83 Years of Journey from Its First Crystal to Molecular Structure 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Urease, a nickel-dependent metalloenzyme, is synthesized by plants, some bacteria, and fungi. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of urea into ammonia and carbon dioxide. Although the amino acid sequences of plant and bacterial ureases are closely related, some biological activities differ significantly. Plant ureases but not bacterial ureases possess insecticidal properties independent of its ureolytic activity. To date, the structural information is available only for bacterial ureases although the jack bean urease (Canavalia ensiformis; JBU), the best-studied plant urease, was the first enzyme to be crystallized in 1926. To better understand the biological properties of plant ureases including the mechanism of insecticidal activity, we initiated the structural studies on some of them. Here, we report the crystal structure of JBU, the first plant urease structure, at 2.05 Å resolution. The active-site architecture of JBU is similar to that of bacterial ureases containing a bi-nickel center. JBU has a bound phosphate and covalently modified residue (Cys592) by β-mercaptoethanol at its active site, and the concomitant binding of multiple inhibitors (phosphate and β-mercaptoethanol) is not observed so far in bacterial ureases. By correlating the structural information of JBU with the available biophysical and biochemical data on insecticidal properties of plant ureases, we hypothesize that the amphipathic β-hairpin located in the entomotoxic peptide region of plant ureases might form a membrane insertion β-barrel as found in β-pore-forming toxins. 相似文献
