Differences in effects of pyrrolizidine alkaloids on five generalist insect herbivore species
(2005)
The evolution of the diversity in plant secondary compounds is often thought to be driven by insect herbivores, although there is little empirical evidence for this assumption. To investigate whether generalist insect ...
Bacillus velezensis RC 218 as a biocontrol agent to reduce Fusarium head blight and deoxynivalenol accumulation: Genome sequencing and secondary metabolite cluster profiles
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2016-11)
Bacillus subtilis RC 218 was originally isolated from wheat anthers as a potential antagonist of Fusarium graminearum, the causal agent of Fusarium head blight (FHB). It was demonstrated to have antagonist activity against ...
Effects of Growth Regulators on Biomass and the Production of Secondary Metabolites in Peppermint (Mentha piperita) Micropropagated in Vitro
(Scientific Research, 2013)
The effects of plant growth regulators on peppermint (Mentha piperita) cultured in vitro were studied for the purpose of maximizing growth and essential oil production in micropropagated plants. The basal medium was ...
Insecticidal activity of ethanolic plant extracts on Aedes aegypti larvae
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2023)
Plant odors trigger clearing behavior in foraging trails: do they represent olfactory obstacles?
(Elsevier Science, 2019-12)
Foraging trails of leaf-cutting ants may be exposed to plant material that interferes with foragers’ flux either by physically blocking it or due to secondary metabolites which affect insect behavior. We hypothesized that ...
