Rui Pu Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd, Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, People's Republic of China.

Duddingtonia flagrans is a nematode-trapping fungus that is widely used to control parasitic nematodes in livestock. After oral ingestion and passage through the digestive tract of animals, this microorganism captures nematodes in feces. Although many researchers have examined the safety of this fungus for humans, animals, and the environment, few reports have discussed the safety of nematode-trapping D.

State Key Laboratory of Subtropical Silviculture, School of Forestry and Biotechnology, Zhejiang A & F University, Hangzhou, China.

Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) has emerged as key player in gene silencing for the past two decades. Tailor-made dsRNA is now recognized a versatile raw material, suitable for a wide range of applications in biopesticide formulations, including insect control to pesticide resistance management. The mechanism of RNA interference (RNAi) acts at the messenger RNA (mRNA) level, utilizing a sequence-dependent approach that makes it unique in term of effectiveness and specificity compared to conventional agrochemicals.

Induction of cell fates by growth factors impacts many facets of developmental biology and disease. LIN-3/EGF induces the equipotent vulval precursor cells (VPCs) in to assume the 3˚-3˚-2˚-1˚-2˚-3˚ pattern of cell fates. 1˚ and 2˚ cells become specialized epithelia and undergo stereotyped series of cell divisions to form the vulva.

Impacts of birth season and production system on gastrointestinal parasitism and growth in Katahdin lambs.

Transl Anim Sci

December 2024

Cooperative Research, College of Agriculture, Environmental and Human Sciences, Lincoln University of Missouri, Jefferson City, MO 65102, USA.

Gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) infection adversely affects the performance and well-being of forage-based sheep throughout the world. The study objectives were to estimate longitudinal differences between birth seasons and production systems for lamb postweaning growth and indicators of GIN infection. Data were collected on Katahdin lambs within a single flock from 2006 to 2022.
