Potential of a Fly Gut Microbiota Incorporated Gel-Based Larval Diet for Rearing Bactrocera Dorsalis (Hendel) Mahfuza Khan1*, Kajla Seheli1, Md
Khan et al. BMC Biotechnology 2019, 19(Suppl 2):94 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12896-019-0580-0 RESEARCH Open Access Potential of a fly gut microbiota incorporated gel-based larval diet for rearing Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) Mahfuza Khan1*, Kajla Seheli1, Md. Abdul Bari1, Nahida Sultana1, Shakil Ahmed Khan1, Khandokar Fahmida Sultana2 and Md. Anwar Hossain3 Abstract Background: The Oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae), is an important polyphagous pest of horticultural produce. The sterile insect technique (SIT) is a proven control method against many insect pests, including fruit flies, under area-wide pest management programs. High quality mass-rearing process and the cost-effective production of sterile target species are important for SIT. Irradiation is reported to cause severe damage to the symbiotic community structure in the mid gut of fruit fly species, impairing SIT success. However, studies have found that target-specific manipulation of insect gut bacteria can positively impact the overall fitness of SIT-specific insects. Results: Twelve bacterial genera were isolated and identified from B. dorsalis eggs, third instars larval gut and adults gut. The bacterial genera were Acinetobacter, Alcaligenes, Citrobacter, Pseudomonas, Proteus, and Stenotrophomonas, belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family. Larval diet enrichment with the selected bacterial isolate, Proteus sp. was found to improve adult emergence, percentage of male, and survival under stress. However, no significant changes were recorded in B. dorsalis egg hatching, pupal yield, pupal weight, duration of the larval stage, or flight ability. Conclusions: These findings support the hypothesis that gut bacterial isolates can be used in conjunction with SIT. -

So an attempt has been taken to explore it scientifically. Preliminary phytochemical investigation reveals that there is presence of flavonoids, Saponins, phenols, bitter principles and steroids. Three different concentrations (50, 100 and 150 mg/ml) of crude extract of hexane, ethyl acetate, chloroform and methanol were tested against earthworms (Pheretima posthuma), which involved the evaluation of paralysis and death period of the worm. Methanol and chloroform extracts exhibited significant anthelmintic activity at highest concentration of 150 mg/mL. Piperzine citrate was selected as standard compound and DMF as control. The anthelmintic activity of Methanol and chloroform of bark of AS has therefore been evaluated for the first time. Key words: Alangium salviifolium; helminthiasis; Pheretima posthuma; Piperzine citrate and Paralysis _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Helminthiasis is a macroparasitic disease of humans and animals caused due to parasitic worms such as pinworm, roundworm, or tapeworm. These worms some times live in the gastrointestinal tract, may also burrow into the liver, lymphatic system, or other organs [1]. The clinical picture of consists of skin infection, skin nodules, and ocular lesions. The skin lesions include oedema, papules, scab-like eruptions and altered pigmentation. -

A total 20:34 (2020) of 65 published documents were shortlisted for the Key words: AYUSH; Ethnomedicine; Medicinal plant; preparation of database and statistical analysis. Sacred grove; Spatial fidelity; Tropical diseases Standard ethnobotanical indices and mapping were used to capture the current trend. Background Results: A total of 1247 species from 152 families Human-nature interaction has been long entwined in has been documented for use against eighteen the history of humanity. Apart from deriving natural categories of diseases common in tropical and sub- resources, humans have a deep rooted tradition of tropical landscapes. Though the reported species venerating nature which is extensively observed are clustered around a few widely distributed across continents (Verschuuren 2010). The tradition families, 71% of them are uniquely represented from has attracted attention of researchers and policy- any single biogeographic region. The use of multiple makers for its impact on local ecological and socio- species in treating an ailment, high use value of the economic dynamics. Ethnomedicine that emanated popular plants, and cross-community similarity in from this tradition, deals health issues with nature- disease treatment reflects rich community wisdom to derived resources. -

Persoonia 45, 2020: 101–131 ISSN (Online) 1878-9080 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/pimj RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.3767/persoonia.2020.45.04 Cryphonectriaceae on Myrtales in China: phylogeny, host range, and pathogenicity W. Wang1,2, G.Q. Li1, Q.L. Liu1, S.F. Chen1,2 Key words Abstract Plantation-grown Eucalyptus (Myrtaceae) and other trees residing in the Myrtales have been widely planted in southern China. These fungal pathogens include species of Cryphonectriaceae that are well-known to cause stem Eucalyptus and branch canker disease on Myrtales trees. During recent disease surveys in southern China, sporocarps with fungal pathogen typical characteristics of Cryphonectriaceae were observed on the surfaces of cankers on the stems and branches host jump of Myrtales trees. In this study, a total of 164 Cryphonectriaceae isolates were identified based on comparisons of Myrtaceae DNA sequences of the partial conserved nuclear large subunit (LSU) ribosomal DNA, internal transcribed spacer new taxa (ITS) regions including the 5.8S gene of the ribosomal DNA operon, two regions of the β-tubulin (tub2/tub1) gene, plantation forestry and the translation elongation factor 1-alpha (tef1) gene region, as well as their morphological characteristics. The results showed that eight species reside in four genera of Cryphonectriaceae occurring on the genera Eucalyptus, Melastoma (Melastomataceae), Psidium (Myrtaceae), Syzygium (Myrtaceae), and Terminalia (Combretaceae) in Myrtales. These fungal species include Chrysoporthe deuterocubensis, Celoporthe syzygii, Cel. eucalypti, Cel. guang dongensis, Cel. cerciana, a new genus and two new species, as well as one new species of Aurifilum. These new taxa are hereby described as Parvosmorbus gen. -

Box 100, A-1400 Vienna, Austria 4Entomology Unit, FAO/IAEA Agriculture and Biotechnology Laboratory, Seibersdorf, Austria Fruit flies are the main constraint to improving production and trade of fruits and vegetables in Thailand. Therefore, since 1987, the Department of Agricultural Extension (DOAE) in cooperation with the Office of Atomic Energy for Peace has run a pilot project for control of the oriental fruit fly (OFF),Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel),by integrating the sterile insect technique (SIT) with other moni- toring and control methods in the mango-production areas in the Paktor District in the Ratchaburi province. The project includes mass-rearing and sterilization of OFF at the mass-rearing and steril- ization facility of the Irradiation for Agricultural Development Institute, DOAE, located in the Pathumthani Province and field releases of sterile flies complemented by bait sprays and a monitor- ing network of methyl eugenol baited traps. The International Atomic Energy Agency has pro- vided technical assistance since 1991 through a Technical Cooperation Project. The assistance has resulted in improved rearing and field operation activities. In the years 1999 and 2000, weekly ground shipments of 5–10 million sterile pupae were transported from the production facility in Pathumthani to Paktor District for ground release in 1120 ha of small commercial mango orchards. -
