Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudy on Salivary Glands α-amylase In Wheat Bug Eurygaster maura (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae)Mohammad Mehrabadi, Ali R. Bandaniα-amylase activity in the salivary glands of Eurygaster maura was determined by biochemical experiments. Some of adult insect was collected and their salivary glands isolated and characterized. Enzyme samples from salivary glands of adults were prepared by the method of Cohen with slight modifications. α-Amylase activity was assayed based on Bernfeld method by the dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) procedure. The activity … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,643 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Essential Oil from Citronella and Alfazema on Fennel Aphids Hyadaphis foeniculi Passerini (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and its Predator Cycloneda sanguinea L. (Coleoptera: Coccinelidae)Charles I. Abramson, Paulo A. Wanderley, Maria J.A. Wanderley et al.The essential oil of plants is used as an alternative to pesticides for the control of aphids. We study the effect of the essential oils of citronella and alfazema on aphid populations in the laboratory and in the field. We also investigate the effect of these oils on the behavior of the aphid’s principal predator the ladybug. The results show … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,392 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOlfactory Responses of the Asiatic Citrus Psyllid (Diaphorina citri) to Mineral Oil-Treated Mandarin LeavesMofit Eko Poerwanto, Y. Andi Trisyono, G. Andrew C. Beattie et al.Problem statement: Evidence of rejection or acceptance by phytophagous pests of citrus plants treated with mineral oils suggests that impacts of oils may be related to detection by olfactory and/or contact chemoreceptors of repellent oils or plant volatiles. Alternatively, the oils may mask or suppress attractant host plant volatiles. To date, no studies have reported that oils elicit an olfactory … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 8,782 accessesView PDF Cite

González-Castillo, Manuel Quintos Escalante, Gabriela Castaño-MenesesProblem statement: The arthropods have a very important role in the arid zones due to their interactions with many organism and because they constituted an important element in the structure of the plant community. Nevertheless their importance there are few knowledge about the community of arthropods associated to vegetation in arid zones in the North of Mexico. The present study … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 20 Aug 2011 · 8,662 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChitinolytic Bacteria Isolated from Chili Rhizosphere: Chitinase Characterization and Its Application as Biocontrol for Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci Genn.)Nisa Rachmania Mubarik, Irni Mahagiani, Amaryllis Anindyaputri et al.Problem statement: Chitin, a common constituent of insect exoskeleton, could be hydrolyzed by chitinase. The research was conducted to screen chitinolytic rhizobacteria isolated from rhizosphere of chilli pepper and to determine their chitinase activity in degrading chitin of whitefly, Bemisia tabaci Genn. (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae). Whitefly is recognized as an important pest on many crops including chilli pepper. Approach: Screening and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 11 Nov 2010 · 18,538 accessesView PDF Cite
