Antagonistic interactions between the biocontrol agents Beauveria bassiana and Heterorhabditis indica
(Russian Journal of Nematology, 2014)
The effect of the pathogenic fungus, Beauveria bassiana, on the invasion and proliferation of
the entomopathogenic nematode, Heterorhabditis indica, in larvae of the waxmoth, Galleria mellonella,
was investigated. ...
Genotyping of sixteen grapevine (Vitis vinifera) varieties in Palestine using microsatellite markers
(Bethlehem University Journal, 2013)
Cultivated grapevines (Vitis vinifera L. ssp. Sativa) are economically the second important fruit-trees after olives in Palestine with more than 20 cultivars covering about 7% of the total cultivated lands and an annual ...
Molecular Identification of Six Steinernema Isolates and Characterization of their Internal Transcribed Spacers Regions
(2013-11-14)
Molecular identification and genotyping of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are prerequisites for their proper classification, biodiversity studies, and their potential use in biological control programs. In Palestine, ...
Making a friend from a foe: expressing a GroEL gene from the whitefly Bemisia tabaci in the phloem of tomato plants confers resistance to tomato yellow leaf curl virus
(Archives of Virology, 2007-03-05)
Some (perhaps all) plant viruses transmitted in a circulative manner by their insect vectors avoid destruction in the haemolymph by interacting with GroEL homologues, ensuring transmission. We have previously shown that ...
Optimized approaches for the sequence determination of double-stranded RNA templates
(Journal of Virological Methods, 2010-08-18)
Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is in many cases the only available template for molecular and diagnostic
studies of RNA viruses. A novel mycovirus with a five dsRNAs segmented-genome served as a model
system for the ...
In vivo and In vitro interactions between two entomopathogens: the bacterium Serratia marcescens and the nematode Heterorhabditis indica
(Russian Journal of Nematology, 2013)
The influence of interaction between Serratia marcescens and Heterorhabditis indica on the
penetration, development and proliferation of the latter inside Galleria mellonella larvae was
investigated. The preinfection ...
A dsRNA mycovirus causes hypovirulence-associated traits in Fusarium graminearum
(European Journal of Plant Pathology, 2012-04-03)
The association of Fusarium graminearum isolate China-9 with the dsRNA mycovirus FgV-ch9 was evaluated for hypovirulence-related traits. Single conidia-originating cultures of China-9 isolate can be associated either with ...
