Hübner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is serious pests of cotton and several other crops. (HaNPV) can be important alternative to synthetic insecticides for the management of . However, the efficacy of HaNPV can vary in horizontal and vertical transmission. In the current study, we evaluated the efficacy of HaNPV of a virulent strain (vertically transmitted up to six generations) and wild strains (used after isolation from the field infected larvae). Both strains were applied to the 2nd instar larvae of @ 1 × 10 polyhedral inclusion bodies (PIB)/ml. There were six replications of each strain (strains). The results indicated higher mortalities in larvae exposed to virulent strains (68.33 ± 6.07%) as compared to wild strain (45 ± 2.24%). Virulent strains killed the larvae quite faster than wild strain. The lethal time (LT) to kill 50% of the larvae by virulent strain was 7.15 days and for wild strain it was 19.47 days. The results showed that multiple passage of HaNPV through several generations enhances its efficacy to kill larvae faster. The results of this study will be helpful to manage and other related lepidopoterous pests.

In meiosis, one round of DNA replication followed by two rounds of chromosome segregation halves the ploidy of the original cell. Accurate chromosome segregation in meiosis I depends on recombination between homologous chromosomes. Sister centromeres attach to the same spindle pole in this division and only segregate in meiosis II.

We report significant associations between the presence of SNPs and reductions in plasma cholesterol, as well as positive associations between hepatic Cpt1a expression and plasma cholesterol levels across inbred mouse strains. Mechanistic studies show that both wild type and human apolipoprotein B100 (apoB)-transgenic mice with liver-specific deletion of (LKO) display lower circulating apoB levels consistent with reduced LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) and LDL particle number.

Background: Despite its proven effectiveness and safety, there are limited real-world data on CoronaVac's immunogenicity in children, especially in lower-income countries, particularly for SARS-CoV-2 variants. We present a real-world study evaluating CoronaVac's immunogenicity in Colombian children stratified by previous exposure to this virus.
Methods: 89 children aged 3-11 years were enrolled (50 Non-Exposed and 39 Exposed).

While Drosophila melanogaster serves as a crucial model for investigating both the circadian clock and gut microbiome, our understanding of their relationship in this organism is still limited. Recent analyses suggested that the Drosophila gut microbiome modulates the host circadian transcriptome to minimize rapid oscillations in response to changing environments. Here, we examined the composition and abundance of the gut microbiota in wild-type and arrhythmic per flies, under 12 h:12 h light: dark (12:12 LD) and constant darkness (DD) conditions.
