Agrobacterium rhizogenes rolB gene affects photosynthesis and chlorophyll content in transgenic tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) plants.

Insertion of Agrobacterium rhizogenes rolB gene into plant genome affects plant development, hormone balance and defence. However, beside the current research, the overall transcriptional response and gene expression of rolB as a modulator in plant is unknown. Transformed rolB tomato plant (Solanum lycopersicum L.

Chill sensitivity and cryopreservation of eggs of the greater wax moth Galleria mellonella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae).

There is an increasing need for methods of cryopreservation of arthropods. In particular, Lepidoptera are extremely important in entomological applications for the protection of agricultural crops and forest ecosystems and also in many aspects of biodiversity conservation. Yet, few studies have dealt with cryopreservation techniques in species of this insect order.
