Problems solved by technology

However, the large-scale production and use of chemical pesticides has brought about three major problems: (1) environmental pollution, increased residual toxicity, and both humans and animals have been poisoned; ecological balance
(4) The use of traditional chemical pesticides with high residues has caused the residues of agricultural and livestock products to seriously exceed the standard, resulting in blocked exports
[0006] The work of expressing North African scorpion toxin through prokaryotic system is in progress. The existing problem is that the activity of the expression product is low. The main reason is that AaHIT1 is a eukaryotic...

[0096] The leaf spraying method was used to spray corn leaves to feed Mythimna seperata Walker to detect the insecticidal activity of the scorpion insect toxin AaHIT1 expressed by the yeast engineering strain AINVSC1. The method of spraying engineered bacteria liquid and bacterial liquid supernatant to feed the armyworm.
[0097] In the first group, sample 1, the engineering strain AINVSC1, was used to spray corn leaves to feed armyworms. The treatment of sample 1 was to incubate the AINVSC1 bacteria on a shaker at 28°C for 24 hours. A total of 20 armyworms were placed in 20 plastic tubes. The armyworms were hungry and fed for 12 hours before treatment, and then sprayed every 12 hours for 72 hours. The treatment temperature was about 25℃ and the death of armyworms was observed. The experiment was repeated three times.
[0098] In the second group, sample 2, the supernatant of the engineering strain AINVSC1, was sprayed with corn leaves to feed the armyworm. The treatment of sample 2 is to incubate the AINVSC1 strain on a shaker at 28°C for 24 hours, centrifuge the bacterial solution at 4°C, 12000rpm×20 minutes, and spray the supernatant on corn leaves to feed the armyworm. Mythimna feeding is the same as above.
[0099] In the above two experiments, the control is INVSC1 bacterial liquid (CK1) and water control (CK2), that is, INVSC1 bacterial liquid is cultured in a shaker at 28°C for 24 hours and then the bacterial liquid is sprayed on corn leaves to feed armyworms and corn leaves are sprayed with water to feed armyworms. .

Activity (see Table 1 for the results). From the data in the table, it can be concluded that the contact effect of the AINVSC1 bacterial liquid on the armyworm is weak, and the corrected mortality rate is 43.8%. However, the contact activity of the sample 2 that is the supernatant of the AINVSC1 bacterial liquid on the armyworm is significantly higher than that of the sample 1. Activity, its corrected mortality rate reached 64.8%, which is much higher than that of sample 1.
