Effects of Honeysuckle Varieties on Protective and Detoxifying Enzyme Activities in Heterolocha Jinyinhuaphaga Chu (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) Larvae.

Investigating the effects of various host plants on protective and detoxifying enzyme activities in insects could provide insights into the adaptation mechanisms of insects to host plants. In the present study, we measured superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase(CAT), carboxylesterase(CarE), acetylcholinesterase (AchE), and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity levels in Heterolocha jinyinhuaphaga Chu (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) larvae fed on four honeysuckle varieties (wild variety, Jiufeng 1, Xiangshui 1, and Xiangshui 2). The results showed that levels of SOD, POD, CAT, CarE, AchE, and GST activities in H.

Different effects of soil bacterial communities affected by biocontrol agent YH-07 on tomato wilt inhibition.

Bio-organic fertilizers based on biocontrol microorganisms have been widely applied to suppress soilborne diseases and improve crop yields. Studies on beneficial biocontrol agents have promoted the development of the bio-organic fertilizers in China. Our previous study demonstrated that a biocontrol agent, sp.
