Fumigant toxicity of the essential oil of Ferula assafoetida L. (Umbelliferae), a potent botanical insecticide against carob moth, was investigated under laboratory conditions on the fitness of two carob moth egg parasitoids, Trichogramma embryophagum (Hartig) and T. evanescens Westwood (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae). The fertility life table parameters were assessed for both species at two different treatments, essential oil and ethanol as control. Although these two species were not affected similarly by the essential oil, exposure to 877 ppm (LC01) in both species significantly reduced the longevity and fecundity of females, as well as the survival, developmental time, wing normality and sex ratio of their progeny. Effects of the essential oil on reproductive behavior of Trichogramma species were also investigated. Under oil treatment, despite that mate searching time increased, the percentage of mating occurrence, the duration of copulation, and sex ratio of F1 progeny declined. Given the negative effects of F. assafoetida essential oil on the two tested wasps, complementary studies are needed to develop the best management strategy for using the oil as environmentally friendly compound in combination with Trichogramma wasps against herbivorous insects. 相似文献

Heavy metals are some of the most important environmental pollutants. Excessive amounts of heavy metals adversely affect plant
growth and development. Also, the presence of elevated levels of heavy metal ions triggers a wide range of cellular responses
including changes in gene expression and synthesis of metal-detoxifying peptides. The overall objective of this research was
to elucidate some microscopic effects of heavy metals on the formation, development, and structure of pollen, ovule, and embryo
and also root proteins in Reseda lutea L. For this purpose, the vicinity of Ahangaran lead–zinc mine (Hamedan, Iran) was chosen as a polluted area where amount of
some heavy metals was several times higher than the natural soils. Flowers and young buds were collected from non-polluted
and polluted plants, fixed in FAA70, and studied during developmental stages by light microscopy. The results showed that heavy metals can cause some abnormalities
during the pollen and ovule developmental process. The number of pollen grains was decreased, and their shape was changed.
Increasing in thickness of the callosic wall and stabilizing of tapetum layer were observed in polluted plants. Asymmetrical
formation of ovular integuments, degradation of egg apparatus, irregular formation of embryo sac, considerable vacuolation
of embryonic cells, and degeneration of embryo in the late stage of heart-shaped embryo are the results of heavy metal pollution.
For protein studies, young roots were harvested from plants exposed to pollution and non-exposed to pollution at the same
time. Root proteins were extracted and studied by electrophoresis. The results revealed that some new proteins were synthesized
in polluted samples that probably elevate plant tolerance to heavy metals. 相似文献

A controllable nanosized light source based on nonlinear interaction of light and a semiconductor nanowire is proposed. Surface plasmon polariton (SPP) waves with different frequencies propagate along the upper and lower surfaces of a truncated metallic film and are scattered at its end face. A nanowire, in that vicinity, is pumped by the scattered light, and new harmonics are generated via second-order nonlinear optical effects. Green's function surface integral equation method is exploited to numerically calculate the electric field, the magnetic field, and the power of the generated frequency components. Results show that the power of the generated harmonics depends on the position and radius of the nanowire, thickness of the metallic film, as well as the wavelength of the incident SPP waves. On the other hand, by controlling the phase difference between incident SPP waves having the same frequencies, it is possible to manipulate the electric field pattern and also to change the power of the generated harmonics. 相似文献

The mycolic-acid layer of certain gram-positive bacteria, the mycolata, represents an additional permeability barrier for the permeation of small water-soluble solutes. Consequently, it was shown in recent years that the mycolic acid layer of individual bacteria of the group mycolata contains pores, called porins, for the passage of hydrophilic solutes. Corynebacterium amycolatum, a pathogenic Corynebacterium species, belongs to the Corynebacteriaceae family but it lacks corynomycolic acids in its cell wall. Despite the absence of corynomycolic acids the cell wall of C. amycolatum contains a cation-selective cell wall channel, which may be responsible for the limited permeability of the cell wall of C. amycolatum. Based on partial sequencing of the protein responsible for channel formation derived from C. amycolatum ATCC 49368 we were able to identify the gene coram0001_1986 within the known genome sequence of C. amycolatum SK46 that codes for the cell wall channel. The corresponding gene of C. amycolatum ATCC 49368 was cloned into the plasmid pXHis for its expression in Corynebacterium glutamicum ?porA?porH. Biophysical characterization of the purified protein (PorAcoram) suggested that coram0001_1986 is indeed the gene coding for the pore-forming protein PorAcoram in C. amycolatum ATCC 49368. The protein belongs to the DUF (Domains of Unknown Function) 3068 superfamily of proteins, mainly found in bacteria from the family Corynebacteriaceae. The nearest relative to PorAcoram within this family is an ORF which codes for PorAcres, which was also recognized in reconstitution experiments as a channel-forming protein in Corynebacterium resistens. 相似文献

Somatic cell hybrids between mouse and human cells containing two different reciprocal translocations involving human chromosome 1, 46,X,t(1;X)(q12;q26) and 47,XX,+21,t(1;17)(p32;p13), were studied for the expression of human uridine diphosphate galactose 4-epimerase (UDPGal 4-epimerase, E.C. 5.1.3.2) by starch-gel electrophoresis. Analysis of the hybrid clones for the expression of the enzyme and the presence of the translocation chromosome 1 has permitted the assignment of the gene for human UDPGal 4-epimerase to the pter yields p32 region of chromosome 1. 相似文献

Six patients (4 females and 2 males) with terminal deletion of the short arm of chromosome 9 distal to band p22 are described. The disorder constitutes a clinically identifiable syndrome consisting of mental retardation, sociable personality, trigonocephaly, mongoloid eyes, wide flat nasal bridge, anteverted nostrils, long upper lip, short neck, long digits mostly secondary to long middle phalanges, and predominance of whorls on fingers. The findings suggest that the clinical features are antithetical to the trisomy 9p syndrome. The deleted chromosome segment is relatively small and could be easily overlooked. It is hoped that this delineation of clinical features seen in 9,p- patients may help in focusing attention on the small deletion. 相似文献
