EFFECTS OF DEFORMED WING VIRUS-TARGETING DSRNA ON VIRAL LOADS IN BEES PARASITISED AND NON-PARASITISED BY VARROA DESTRUCTOR

Effects of Deformed Wing Virus-Targeting dsRNA on Viral Loads in Bees Parasitised and Non-Parasitised by Varroa destructor

The Varroa destructor mite is a devastating parasite of honey bees; however the negative effects of varroa parasitism are exacerbated by its role as an efficient vector of the honey bee pathogen, Deformed wing virus (DWV).While no direct treatment for DWV infection is available for beekeepers to Plastic Tumbers use on their hives, RNA interference

Production and characterization of bioemulsifier from a marine bacterium, Acinetobacter calcoaceticus subsp. anitratus SM7

Marine bacterium strain SM7 was isolated as a bioemulsifier-producing bacterium from oil-spilled seawater in Songkhla lagoon, Thailand.It was identified as Acinetobacter calcoaceticus subsp.anitratus based on morphology, biochemicalcharacteristics and 16S rRNA sequence.A.calcoaceticus subsp.anitratus SM7 produced an extracellular emulsifying agent
