紫茎泽兰提取物对四种储粮害虫的杀虫活性

紫茎泽兰提取物对米象、玉米象、绿豆象和蚕豆象等4种储粮害虫成虫具有强烈的熏杀活性,用44.44mg/L的浓度熏蒸处理48h后,每种成虫死亡率均达到100.00%。熏蒸毒力测定结果表明,紫茎泽兰提取物对上述4种成虫24h的LC_(50)分别为14.65,12.80,25.07和12.20mg/L,48h的LC_(50)分别为11.79,9.67,13.29和9.76mg/L。

Meiothermus rosaceus sp nov isolated from Tengchong hot spring in Yunnan, China

A rosy-pigmented Gram-negative, thermophilic bacterium with an optimum growth temperature of about 55degreesC was isolated from Tengchong hot springs in Yunnan province, China. Its growth scarcely occurred below 40degreesC or above 70degreesC. Phylogenetic and secondary structural analyses of 16S rRNA and DNA-DNA hybridization showed that the organism represented a new species of the genus Meiothermus. This new species could be distinguished easily from other species of the genus Meiothermus by the following phenotypic characteristics: rosy pigment, expanded body, sucrose and maltose were not utilized, gelatin and starch were not hydrolyzed. On the basis of the above data, the name Meiothermus rosaceus sp. nov. was proposed for the species represented by the strain RH9901(T)(CCTCC-AB200291).
