MWU205 MWU328 *— NRRL B-503SO — C b ct er r subtsugae 00 l l © Fig o o COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS COMPRISING CHROMOBACTERIUM FOR CONTROLLING PLANT NEMATODE PESTS AND PLANT INSECT PESTS FIELD OF THE INVENTION Disclosed herein are compositions comprising a novel strain of Chromobacterium for controlling plant pests and other invasive pests. Further disclosed are methods of using such compositions for controlling crop damaging plant nematode pests and insect pests in agricultural environments. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Pests, such as nematodes, insects, and acari (mites and ticks) are a major problem for the agriculture industry, limiting productivity, often significantly. Although chemical solutions have been used to control pests, excessive use of chemicals leaves residues in soil, water, and air, and has additional adverse effects on non-target organisms and the ecological balance. In addition, pests can develop resistance to chemical pesticides, limiting their effectiveness and application. Public concern over potential health hazards of chemical pesticides and the increase in cost of chemical pesticides has also led to the exploration of more eco-friendly pest management tactics. Microbial pesticides have been developed for use as an alternative, or in some cases as a supplement, to chemical pesticides. Microbial pesticides are living organisms (e.g., bacteria and fungi) that intervene in the life cycle of pests (by killing or disabling the pest). Examples of microbial pesticides include microbial nematicides, and in particular, nematophagous bacteria including strains of Chromobacterium spp. Tian, B.; Yang, J.; Zhang, K. (2007).

Chromobacterium vaccinii sp. nov., isolated from native and cultivated cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.) bogs and irrigation ponds. International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology 63: 1840-1846 discusses a number of Gram-negative, motile, mesophilic, violacein-producing bacteria isolated from the soils and roots of Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait. and Kalmia angustifolia L. plants and from irrigation ponds associated with wild and cultivated cranberry bogs in Massachusetts, USA. Phylogenetic analyses of 16S rRNA gene sequences placed these isolates in a clade with Chromobacterium species, but the specialized environment from which they were isolated, indicate that the cranberry and Kalmia isolates comprise a separate species of Chromobacterium, for which the name Chromobacterium vaccinii sp. nov. is proposed.

    Biological Reduction of Selenium Oxyanions in the Presence of Nitrate anions using Anaerobic Microbes by Gaurav Subedi B.Sc., Jacobs University Bremen, 2010 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Chemical and Biological Engineering) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) July 2016 © Gaurav Subedi, 2016 Abstract Biological selenium reduction has emerged as a viable solution for the removal of toxic selenium from the environment. However, the presence of nitrate hinders selenium reduction by acting as a competitive electron acceptor. The present thesis investigated the use of local mine-impacted sediment as an inoculum for selenium reduction and studied the affect of nitrate on the removal of selenium. Sediment samples, impacted by mining activities, were collected from two vastly different sites of the Elk River Valley. These sediments namely; Goddard Marsh and Mature Tailing Coal, were enriched for selenium reducing bacterial consortium under high selenium and varying nitrate concentrations to put additional selection pressure. Ultimately, two cultures from Goddard Marsh enriched under low and high nitrate condition as well as one culture from Mature Tailing Coal enriched under moderate nitrate condition were used to access the affect of nitrate on selenium reduction using central composite design matrix. The extent of Se reduction was highest in the Goddard Marsh enrichment with no nitrate while enrichment with moderate and high nitrate reduced selenium poorly. ANOVA results from the CCD experiment in Goddard Marsh enrichment with no nitrate indicated no affect of nitrate in Se reduction. Two primer sets targeting the selenate redutase (serA) from Thauera selenatis and nitrite reductase (nirK) from denitrifying population were used to quantify the population of selenium reducing and denitrifying population in the CCD experiment.

It was hypothesized that selenium reducing microorganisms can be obtained from native mine bacteria at sites affected by MIW due to the selection pressure from elevated selenium concentrations at those sites. Enrichment of these microorganisms and testing of their capacity to remove dissolved selenium from actual coal MIW was the objective of this dissertation. Fifteen sediments were collected from eleven different vegetated or non-vegetated seepage collection ponds and one non-impacted natural wetland.

  • Antinociceptive Effect of Methanol Extract of Dalbergia Sissoo Leaves in Mice Md
    Mannan et al. BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine (2017) 17:72 DOI 10.1186/s12906-017-1565-y RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Antinociceptive effect of methanol extract of Dalbergia sissoo leaves in mice Md. Abdul Mannan*, Ambia Khatun and Md. Farhad Hossen Khan Abstract Background: Dalbergia sissoo DC. (Family: Fabaceae) is a medium to large deciduous tree, is locally called “shishu” in Bangladesh. It is used to treat sore throats, dysentery, syphilis, bronchitis, inflammations, infections, hernia, skin diseases, and gonorrhea. This study evaluated the antinociceptive effect of the methanol extract of D. sissoo leaves (MEDS) in mice. Methods: The extract was assessed for antinociceptive activity using chemical and heat induced pain models such as hot plate, tail immersion, acetic acid-induced writhing, formalin, glutamate, and cinnamaldehyde test models in mice at the doses of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg (p.o.) respectively. Morphine sulphate (5 mg/kg, i.p.) and diclofenac sodium (10 mg/kg, i.p.) were used as reference analgesic drugs. To confirm the possible involvement of opioid receptor in the central antinociceptive effect of MEDS, naloxone was used to antagonize the effect. Results: MEDS demonstrated potent and dose-dependent antinociceptive activity in all the chemical and heat induced mice models (p < 0.001). The findings of this study indicate that the involvement of both peripheral and central antinociceptive mechanisms. The use of naloxone verified the association of opioid receptors in the central antinociceptive effect. Conclusions: This study indicated the peripheral and central antinociceptive activity of the leaves of D. sissoo. These results support the traditional use of this plant in different painful conditions.

Email: [email protected] Received: 17 September 2020 Accepted: 20 October 2020 ABSTRACT As a tropical archipelagic country, Indonesia’s forests possess high biodiversity, including its wide variety of wood species. Valorisation of biomolecules released from woody plant extracts has been gaining attractive interests since in the middle of 20th century. This paper focuses on a literature review of the potential valorisation of biomole- cules released from twenty wood species exploited in Indonesia. It has revealed that depending on the natural origin of the wood species studied and harmonized with the ethnobotanical and ethnomedicinal knowledge, the extractives derived from the woody plants have given valuable heritages in the fields of medicines and phar- macology. The families of the bioactive compounds found in the extracts mainly consisted of flavonoids, stilbenes, stilbenoids, lignans, tannins, simple phenols, terpenes, terpenoids, alkaloids, quinones, and saponins. In addition, biological or pharmacological activities of the extracts/isolated phytochemicals were recorded to have antioxidant, antimicrobial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetes, anti-dysentery, anticancer, analgesic, anti-malaria, and anti-Alzheimer activities.

Poplar-cotton agro-ecosystems are the main agricultural planting modes of plain cotton fields in China. Here, we performed a systematic survey of the diversity and population of arthropod communities in four different combination of poplar-cotton eco- systems, including I) non-transgenic poplar and non-transgenic cotton fields; II) non-transgenic poplar and transgenic cotton fieldsBacillus [ thuringiensis (Bt) cotton]; III) Bt transgenic poplar (high insect resistant strain Pb29) and non-transgenic cotton; and IV) transgenic poplar and transgenic cotton fields, over a period of 3 years. Based on the statistical methods used to investigate community ecology, the effects of transgenic ecosystems on the whole structure of the arthropod community, on the structure of arthropods in the nutritive layer, and on the similarity of arthropod communities were evaluated. The main results were as follows: the transgenic poplar-cotton ecosystem has a stronger inhibitory effect on insect pests and has no impact on the structure of the arthropod community, and therefore, maintains the diversity of the Genetics and Molecular Research 14 (4): 15713-15729 (2015) ©FUNPEC-RP www.funpecrp.com.br D.J.
