Controlled release of sugar and toxicant from a novel device for controlling pest insects

A novel biodegradable device, designed for long-lasting residual effectiveness of feeding stimulant (sugar) and insecticide (dimethoate) against apple maggot flies and other insects, was formulated. The device is an 8-cm diameter fruit-mimicking sphere, consisting of 42–50% sugar entrapped in a mixture of gelatinized corn flour and wheat flour in the presence of glycerin, and coated with a layer of latex paint containing dimethoate and sugar. We found that the outer layer of paint prevents cracking of the sphere upon drying and creates a barrier to control the release of both sugar and dimethoate. Releases of each ingredient were screened first by chemical analysis and then by bioassays in the laboratory and in field cages against apple maggot flies. Chemical analysis demonstrated strong potential for controlled release of water-soluble feeding stimulant and water-insoluble insecticide measured as a function of the amount of rainfall and duration of exposure time. Field results showed greater than 70% insecticidal activity after 11 weeks of sphere exposure in an orchard. This device has the potential to be used for a variety of insect-control applications through manipulating its shape, color and texture into forms known to be attractive to target insects, and by employing various toxicants designed to be effective against such insects.     

Synaptic transmission of chaotic spike trains between primary afferent fiber and spinal dorsal horn neuron in the rat

Primary sensory neurons can generate irregular burst firings in which the existence of significant deterministic behaviors of chaotic dynamics has been proved with nonlinear time series analysis. But how well the deterministic characteristics and neural information of presynaptic chaotic spike trains were transmitted into postsynaptic spike trains is still an open question. Here we investigated the synaptic transmission of chaotic spike trains between primary Adelta afferent fiber and spinal dorsal horn neuron. Two kinds of basic stimulus unit, brief burst and single pulse, were employed by us to comprise chaotic stimulus trains. For time series analysis, we defined "events" as the longest sequences of spikes with all interspike intervals less than or equal to a certain threshold and extracted the interevent intervals (IEIs) from spike trains. Return map analysis of the IEI series showed that the main temporal structure of chaotic input trains could be detected in postsynaptic output trains, especially under brief-burst stimulation. Using correlation dimension and nonlinear prediction methods, we found that synaptic transmission could influence the nonlinear characteristics of chaotic trains, such as fractal dimension and short-term predictability, with greater influence made under single-pulse stimulation. By calculating the mutual information between input and output trains, we found the information carried by presynaptic spike trains could not be completely transmitted at primary afferent synapses, and that brief bursts could more reliably transmit the information carried by chaotic input trains across synapses. These results indicate that although unreliability exists during synaptic transmission, the main deterministic characteristics of chaotic burst trains can be transmitted across primary afferent synapses. Moreover, brief bursts that come from the periphery can more reliably transmit neural information between primary afferent fibers and spinal dorsal horn neurons.     

cis-Acting packaging motifs of porcine adenovirus type 3

The cis-acting packaging domain is required for selective encapsidation of adenovirus DNA into preformed empty capsids late in the viral life cycle. Earlier, it was demonstrated that the cis-acting packaging domain of porcine adenovirus type (PAdV)-3 is located between nucleotide position (nt) 212 and 531 at the left end genome which contains six AT/GC rich motifs. Removal of packaging domain from left end to the right end of the genome produced a viable mutant virus suggesting that the identified cis-acting packaging domain represents the DNA sequences required for selective packaging of PAdV-3 DNA, whose position and orientation appear to be flexible. Here, by constructing and analyzing a panel of virus mutants carrying deletions or linker scanning mutations in AT/GC rich sequences, we examined the significance of the continuous A/T or G/C sequences individually in the viral packaging process. In contrast to consensus bipartite structure (5'-TTTGN8CG-3') described for most of packaging motifs of human adenovirus type 5 (HAdV-5), the packaging motifs I, II, III, and IV of PAdV-3 displayed a tripartite structure in which the continuous A/T nucleotides were flanked by G/C-rich sequences. Mutations in both continuous A/T nucleotides and its flanking GC-rich sequences reduced the packaging efficiency of mutants to varying degrees. In addition, although the continuous A/T sequences were present in all of the packaging motifs, their significance in the packaging process appears to vary within each packaging motif.
