(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Fungal infections in cereals lead to huge economic losses in the food and agriculture industries. This study was designed to investigate the occurrence of toxigenic fungi and their mycotoxins in marketed cereals and explore ...
Towards novel Cry toxins with enhanced toxicity/broader: a new chimeric Cry4Ba / Cry1Ac toxin
(
Springer-Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
Attempts have been made to express or to merge different Cry proteins in order to enhance toxic effects against various insects. Cry1A proteins of Bacillus thuringiensis form a typical bipyramidal parasporal crystal and ...
Screening and identification of a Bacillus thuringiensis strain S1/4 with large and efficient insecticidal activities.
(
WILEY-VCH
, 2013 , Article)
The bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis was recognized for its entomopathogenic activities related to Cry and Cyt proteins forming the δ-endotoxins and some extracellular activities like the vegetative insecticidal proteins ...
Biological control of Botrytis cinerea using the antagonistic and endophytic Burkholderia cepacia Cs5 for vine plantlet protection
(
Canadian Science Publishing
, 2011 , Article)
Antifungal activity of the Burkholderia cepacia Cs5 was tested in vitro and in vivo for the control of Botrytis cinerea . Bacterial biomass was significantly improved by the amendment of ZnSO(4), Mo(7)(NH(4))(6)O(24), and ...
Molecular identification and biocontrol of ochratoxigenic fungi and ochratoxin A in animal feed marketed in the state of Qatar
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2023 , Article)
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a toxic fungal metabolite produced by some Aspergillus and Penicillium species. This work was designed to explore the presence of OTA and ochratoxigenic fungi in feed grains marketed in Qatar and their ...
Application of scanning electron microscopy and MALDI-TOF MS in the exploration of the parasporal insecticidal crystals of Bacillus thuringiensis strains isolated from Qatar soil
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) plays an important role in health and agriculture due to its insecticidal activities. In this study, six Bt strains isolated from Qatar soil were used to explore their crystals morphologies and ...
