Indoxacarb was treated to Plutella xylostella for 10 generations to develop a resistant strain and biochemical analysis of indoxacarb resistance in different tissues of P. xylostella was carried out. Biochemical analysis found maximum esterase activity in gut homogenates of indoxacarb resistant strains followed by whole body and cuticle homogenates. In gut homogenates of indoxacarb resistant strains, maximum increase in esterases was found as compared to the unselected strain. Acetylcholineesterase activity was higher in head homogenates of the resistant strain than in the unselected strain. Glutathione-S-transferase activity was highest in whole body homogenates. However, maximum increase was found in gut homogenates of indoxacarb resistant strains over the unselected. Induced resistance was suppressed using known synergists. Maximum synergism occurred using diethyl-maleate (DEM), followed by triphenyl phosphate (TPP). 相似文献

The toxicity of synthetic pyrethroids was found to be negatively correlated with temperature, whereas contrasting correlation was observed with the toxicity of organophosphorous compounds chlorpyriphos and quinalphos, which was most toxic at higher temperature. A similar phenomenon was observed in endosulfan at higher temperature and humidity combination. The insecticide molecules indoxacarb and spinosad were effective among the insecticides tested. Indoxacarb was effective at lower temperature, and spinosad was effective at all the temperature and relative humidity combinations with minor difference in LD50 values. During both the years, however, the levels of resistance were higher in second year compared with previous year. 相似文献

Many species of animal-pollinated flowers are known to vary widely in the nectar content of flowers. Some proportion of flowers
in many species is apparently nectarless, and such flowers are believed to be ‘cheaters’. Cheating may explain a part of the
variability in nectar content. If cheating exists as a qualitatively different strategy then we expect bimodality in the distribution
of nectar content of flowers. It has been shown in a multispecies study that gregarious species have a higher proportion of
cheater flowers. We studied the frequency distribution of total nectar sugar in two gregariously flowering species Lantana camara and Utricularia purpurascens, which differed in other floral and ecological characters. At the population level, both the species showed significant bimodality
in the total sugar content of flowers. The obvious sources of heterogeneity in the data did not explain bimodality. In Lantana camara, bimodality was observed within flowers of some of the individual plants sampled. In Utricularia purpurascens the proportion of nectarless flowers was more in high-density patches, suggesting that the gregariousness hypothesis may
work within a species as well. The results support the hypothesis of cheating as a distinct strategy since two distinct types
of flowers were observed in both the species. The effect of density in Utricularia purpurascens also supports the gregariousness hypothesis. 相似文献

The most common mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene in individuals with cystic fibrosis, DeltaF508, causes retention of DeltaF508-CFTR in the endoplasmic reticulum and leads to the absence of CFTR Cl(-) channels in the apical plasma membrane. Rescue of DeltaF508-CFTR by reduced temperature or chemical means reveals that the DeltaF508 mutation reduces the half-life of DeltaF508-CFTR in the apical plasma membrane. Because DeltaF508-CFTR retains some Cl(-) channel activity, increased expression of DeltaF508-CFTR in the apical membrane could serve as a potential therapeutic approach for cystic fibrosis. However, little is known about the mechanisms responsible for the short apical membrane half-life of DeltaF508-CFTR in polarized human airway epithelial cells. Accordingly, the goal of this study was to determine the cellular defects in the trafficking of rescued DeltaF508-CFTR that lead to the decreased apical membrane half-life of DeltaF508-CFTR in polarized human airway epithelial cells. We report that in polarized human airway epithelial cells (CFBE41o-) the DeltaF508 mutation increased endocytosis of CFTR from the apical membrane without causing a global endocytic defect or affecting the endocytic recycling of CFTR in the Rab11a-specific apical recycling compartment. 相似文献

NanC is an Escherichia coli outer membrane protein involved in sialic acid (Neu5Ac, i.e., N-acetylneuraminic acid) uptake. Expression of the NanC gene is induced and controlled by Neu5Ac. The transport mechanism of
Neu5Ac is not known. The structure of NanC was recently solved (PDB code: 2WJQ) and includes a unique arrangement of positively
charged (basic) side chains consistent with a role in acidic sugar transport. However, initial functional measurements of
NanC failed to find its role in the transport of sialic acids, perhaps because of the ionic conditions used in the experiments.
We show here that the ionic conditions generally preferred for measuring the function of outer-membrane porins are not appropriate
for NanC. Single channels of NanC at pH 7.0 have: (1) conductance 100 pS to 800 pS in 100 mM KCl to 3 M KCl), (2) anion over cation selectivity (V
reversal = +16 mV in 250 mM KCl || 1 M KCl), and (3) two forms of voltage-dependent gating (channel closures above ±200 mV). Single-channel conductance decreases
by 50% when HEPES concentration is increased from 100 μM to 100 mM in 250 mM KCl at pH 7.4, consistent with the two HEPES binding sites observed in the crystal structure. Studying alternative buffers,
we find that phosphate interferes with the channel conductance. Single-channel conductance decreases by 19% when phosphate
concentration is increased from 0 mM to 5 mM in 250 mM KCl at pH 8.0. Surprisingly, TRIS in the baths reacts with Ag|AgCl electrodes, producing artifacts even when the electrodes
are on the far side of agar–KCl bridges. A suitable baseline solution for NanC is 250 mM KCl adjusted to pH 7.0 without buffer. 相似文献

There has been a renewed interest in Ce3+‐activated halide phosphors due to applications as scintillation detectors, especially for positron emission tomography. For K2LaCl5, the light yield increases and the energy resolution (FWHM) improves with increasing Ce3+ doping. K2LaX5 compounds are also important as laser hosts for the mid‐IR range. K2LaCl5:Nd crystals show bright mid‐IR luminescence, which makes them a candidate for IR laser materials. Efficient emission in the IR range has also been reported in K2LaCl5:U3+. A one‐step, wet chemical process for preparing Ce3+‐activated K2LaCl5 phosphor is described. Intense luminescence of Ce3+ can be observed in the as‐prepared powders without any heat treatment. The availability of such powders opens up several exciting possibilities, such as growing single crystals without going to the high temperatures required for melting the constituent chlorides, or even obtaining processed, transparent, Ce3+‐activated materials without taking recourse to crystal growth.

Photoluminescence, and optically stimulated luminescence in ZnB2X4 (B; Li,Na,K: X; Cl,Br) compounds doped with Cu+ or Ag+ were studied. Double humped emission bands attributable to the activators were observed in all the samples. The observed photoluminescence of Cu+ and Ag+ could be identified with 3d94s1?3d10 and 4d95s1?5d10 transitions respectively. The longer wavelength band (400–500 nm range) could be attributed to the Cu+ or Ag+ ion replacing alkali ion at the octahedral alkali site whereas short wavelength band (340–400 nm range) is attributed to a Cu or Ag ion at tetrahedral zinc site. The short wavelength band was found to be intense compared with long wavelength and gave an indication that most of the Cu or Ag ions prefered a tetrahedral Zn site compared with the octahedral alkali site. All the samples exhibit optically stimulated luminescence (OSL). The sensitivity was found to be lattice dependent. The lowest sensitivity of about 1% compared with Al2O3:C was observed in lithium lattices whereas highest the sensitivity of about 290% was observed in the case of Cu‐doped ZnNa2Br4. 相似文献

With no known exceptions, every published microarray study to determine differential mRNA levels in eukaryotes used RNA extracted from whole cells. It is assumed that the use of whole cell RNA in microarray gene expression analysis provides a legitimate profile of steady-state mRNA. Standard labeling methods and the prevailing dogma that mRNA resides almost exclusively in the cytoplasm has led to the long-standing belief that the nuclear RNA contribution is negligible. We report that unadulterated cytoplasmic RNA uncovers differentially expressed mRNAs that otherwise would not have been detected when using whole cell RNA and that the inclusion of nuclear RNA has a large impact on whole cell gene expression microarray results by distorting the mRNA profile to the extent that a substantial number of false positives are generated. We conclude that to produce a valid profile of the steady-state mRNA population, the nuclear component must be excluded, and to arrive at a more realistic view of a cell''s gene expression profile, the nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA fractions should be analyzed separately. 相似文献

Modified synthesis and luminescence of Y2BaZnO5 phosphors activated with the rare earths (RE) Eu3+, Tb3+, Pr3+ and Sm3+ are reported. RE2BaZnO5 phosphors have attracted attention because of their interesting magnetic and optical properties; and are usually prepared using a two‐step solid‐state reaction. In the first step, carbonates or similar precursors are thoroughly mixed and heated at 900°C to decompose them to oxides. To eliminate the unwanted phases like BaRE2O4, the resulting powders are reheated at 1100°C for a long time. We prepared Y2BaZnO5 phosphors activated with various activators by replacing the first step with combustion synthesis. The photoluminescence results are presented. The photoluminescence results for Eu3+, Tb3+ and Pr3+ are in good agreement with the literature. However, photoluminescence emission from Sm3+ has not been documented previously. The excitation spectrum of Eu3+ is dominated by a charge transfer band around 261 nm, and an additional band around 238 nm is always present, irrespective of the type of activator. The presence of this band for all these different types of activators was interpreted as host absorption. 相似文献
