Female Aedes aegypti lay their eggs on nearly any moist substrate.Methods with potential to repel oviposition may reduce infestation, thereby contributing to control of epidemics.We evaluated the influence of Cnidoscolus phyllacanthus and Ricinus communis plant extracts on the oviposition behavior of A.aegypti.Lethal concentrations were first deter
In order to evaluate the application potential of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) heads and skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) heads; proximate composition, amino acids, fatty acids, carnosine, and anserine contents were analyzed in this study.Rainbow trout heads showed significantly higher protein (29.31 g/100 g FW, FW is abbreviation of fresh
Abstract Background The population genetics of U.S.honey bee stocks remain poorly characterized despite the agricultural importance of Apis mellifera as the major crop pollinator.Commercial and research-based breeding programs have made significant improvements of favorable genetic traits (e.g.production and disease resistance).The variety of bees
Canine protothecosis is a rare disease caused by saprophytic unicellular achlorophyllous aerobic algae that are ubiquitous in the environment.We report a novel case of neurological and cardiological manifestations associated with disseminated protothecosis.An adult spayed female Boxer dog was presented with a 1-week history of anorexia, progressive
