Insects or Insecta (from Latin insectum) are hexapod invertebrates and the largest group within the arthropod phylum. Definitions and circumscriptions vary; usually, insects comprise a class within the Arthropoda. As used here, the term Insecta is synonymous with Ectognatha. Insects have a chitinous exoskeleton, a three-part body (head, thorax and abdomen), three pairs of jointed legs, compound eyes and one pair of antennae. Insects are the most diverse group of animals; they include more than a million described species and represent more than half of all known living organisms. The total number of extant species is estimated at between six and ten million; potentially over 90% of the animal life forms on Earth are insects. Insects may be found in nearly all environments, although only a small number of species reside in the oceans, which are dominated by another arthropod group, crustaceans.

Cry1F and Cry1AC transgenic cotton lines and event-specific identification thereof

This invention relates to plant breeding and the protection of plants from insects. More specifically, this invention includes novel transformation events of cotton plants comprising one or more polynucleotide sequences, as described herein, inserted into specific site(s) within the genome of a cotton cell. In highly preferred embodiments, said polynucleotide sequences encode “stacked” Cry1F and Cry1Ac lepidopteran insect inhibitory proteins. However, the subject invention includes plants having single cry1F or cry1Ac events, as described herein. Additionally, the invention is related to cotton plants derived from that transformation event and to assays for detecting the presence of the event in a sample. More specifically, the present invention provides DNA and related assays for detecting the presence of certain insect-resistance events in cotton. The assays are based on the DNA sequences of recombinant constructs inserted into the cotton genome and of the genomic sequences flanking the insertion sites. These sequences are unique. Based on these insert and border sequences, event-specific primers were generated. PCR analysis demonstrated that these cotton lines can be identified in different cotton genotypes by analysis of the PCR amplicons generated with these event-specific primer sets. Thus, these and other related procedures can be used to uniquely identify these cotton lines. Kits and conditions useful in conducting the assays are also provided. These materials and methods can also be used to assist breeding programs to further develop traits in cotton.

A set of living body microorganism preparations for preparing composite microorganism fertilizer and preparation method thereof

The invention relates to a group of alive microbial preparations for preparing compound microbial fertilizer and the preparation method thereof. The alive microbial preparations include a microbial inoculant and an organic material degradation agent. The microbial inoculant includes Bacillus megaterium, Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus mucilaginosus, Bacillus laterosporus, Azotobocter chroococcum, etc. The organic material degradation agent includes Bacillus megaterium, Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus circulans, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida lipolytica, Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus cereus, Streptomyces griseus, Pseudomonas alcaligenes, Pseudomonas cepacia, Streptococcus salivarius subsp. Thermophilus, Geobacillus stearothermophilus, Streptomyces Thermophilus, Geotrichum candidum and Aspergillus oryzae. The preparation method comprises the following steps: carrying out submerged fermentation, directly mixing the bacterial liquids and stirring to obtain a liquid preparation; or mixing with an absorbent to obtain a solid preparation. The alive microbial preparations have the advantages of improving soil fertility, promoting plant growth, enhancing anti-disease, anti-insect and anti-drought capacities of plants, improving quality of agricultural products and so on.

Manufacturing process for the production of polypeptides expressed in insect cell-lines

The present invention provides a manufacturing method for polypeptides that are produced in insect cells using a baculoviral expression system. In one example, the insect cell culture is supplemented with a lipid mixture immediately prior to infection (e.g., one hour prior to infection). The polypeptides are isolated from the insect cell culture using a method that employs anion exchange or mixed-mode chromatography early in the purification process. This process step is useful to remove insect-cell derived endoglycanases and proteases and thus reduces the loss of desired polypeptide due to enzymatic degradation. In another example, mixed-mode chromatography is combined with dye-ligand affinity chromatography in a continuous-flow manner to allow for rapid processing of the insect-cell culture liquid and capture of the polypeptide. In yet another example, a polypeptide is isolated from an insect cell culture liquid using a process that combines hollow fiber filtration, mixed-mode chromatography and dye-ligand affinity in a single unit operation producing a polypeptide solution that is essentially free of endoglycanase and proteolytic activities. In a further example, the isolated polypeptides are glycopeptides having an insect specific glycosylation pattern, which are optionally conjugated to a modifying group, such as a polymer (e.g., PEG) using a glycosyltransferase and a modified nucleotide sugar.

Method for processing food waste by using black soldier fly larvae and material formula

The invention belongs to the field of environmental protection, relating to a method for processing food waste by using black soldier fly larvae and comprising the following steps: coarse crushing the food waste and then adding auxiliary materials to obtain culture materials for the black soldier fly larvae; and grafting black soldier fly spawn on the surface of the culture materials for the black soldier fly larvae so that the larvae hatched by the black soldier fly spawn acquires the culture materials for the black soldier fly larvae, thereby processing and cleaning the food waste. Before the black soldier fly larvae ages, a polypide collecting container is externally connected to the area for piling up the culture materials for the black soldier fly larvae and is filled with dry rice bran powder so as to guide to collect the aged black soldier fly larvae; and the rest of the processed culture materials for the black solider fly larvae is dried and then prepared into microbial organic fertilizer. The invention has strong processing capability, rapid processing speed compared with the common compost, the processing period is 4-5 days; after being processed, the volume of the food waste is reduced by 10-30%, the peculiar smell of the waste is lightened; and the invention can obtain excellent microbial organic fertilizer and insect bioprotein at the same time.
