日本国家蔬菜与茶叶研究所(NIVTS)正在为开发昆虫生长调节剂(IGR)寻找工业伙伴,该所的研究人员已经分离出一个影响从幼虫向成虫变态的茧的基因,这项工作可以导致开发有效防治鳞翅目害虫的IGR。这个基因产生一种酶,JHAMT,它能影响保幼激素的产生。抑制这个基因的物质可干扰幼虫的发育,减少成虫产卵。NIVTS人已经从斜纹夜蛾、棉铃虫、果蝇和蚊虫中分离出类似基因。基因分离后,研究者计划与日本大学一起开始筛选
The National Institute of Vegetables and Tea (NIVTS) is looking for an industrial partner for the development of insect growth regulators (IGRs) and researchers at the institute have isolated a gene that affects the cocoon from larvae to adult worms, a work that could lead to the development Effective prevention and control of Lepidoptera pests IGR. This gene produces an enzyme, JHAMT, that affects juvenile hormone production. Substances that inhibit this gene can interfere with larval development and reduce adult egg production. NIVTS people have isolated similar genes from Spodoptera litura, cotton bollworm, fruit fly and mosquito. After gene isolation, the researchers plan to begin screening with Japanese universities
