摘要:
Provided is a pesticidal Flavobacterium strain and bioactive compositions and metabolites derived therefrom as well as their methods of use for controlling pests.
摘要:
Disclosed herein is the nucleotide sequence of the Chromobacterium subtsugae genome. Also provided are the nucleotide sequences of open reading frames in the C. subtsugae genome (i.e., C. subtsugae genes). In addition, the amino acid sequences of proteins encoded by the C. subtsugae genome are provided. Nucleic acids, vectors and polypeptides comprising the aforementioned sequences are also provided. Homologues, functional fragments and conservative variants of the aforementioned sequences are also provided. Compositions having pesticidal, bioremedial and plant growth-promoting activities comprising C. subtsugae genes and proteins, and methods for the use of these compositions, are also provided.
摘要:
A species of Burkholderia sp with no known pathogenicity to vertebrates but with pesticidal activity (e.g., plants, algae, arachnids, insects, fungi, weeds and nematodes) as well as methods for controlling algae using said species of Burkholderia. Also provided are natural products derived from a culture of said species and methods of controlling algae and/or arachnids using said natural products.
摘要:
There is a need for a selective, low-risk herbicide that can be used to control weeds in cereal cultures and turf. The present invention discloses that a bacterial secondary metabolite, thaxtomin and optionally another herbicide is an effective herbicide on broadleaved, sedge and grass weeds. Thaxtomin A and structurally similar compounds can be used as natural herbicides to control the germination and growth of weeds in cereal, turf grass, Timothy grass and pasture grass cultures with no phytotoxicity to these crops. As a natural, non-toxic compound, thaxtomin can be used as a safe alternative for weed control in both conventional and organic farming and gardening systems.
摘要:
Provided are bioactive compounds and metabolites derived from Chromobacterium species culture responsible for controlling pests, compositions containing these compounds, methods for obtaining these compounds and methods of using these compounds and compositions for controlling pests.
摘要:
Stabilized biological pesticides comprising Chromobacterium species, filtrate, supernatant, extract or pesticidally active substance derived therefrom with pesticidal activity having improved shelf life due to maintenance of physical uniformity and longer insecticide activity after use due to higher resistance to degradation when exposed to sunlight are disclosed.
摘要:
Provided are bioactive compositions and metabolites derived from Bacillus and particularly Bacillus megaterium cultures responsible for controlling pests as well as their methods of use for controlling pests. Further provided are pesticidal Bacillus megaterium strains.
摘要:
Disclosed herein is a Bacillus strain, Bacillus sp. isolate F727, that produces metabolites with pesticidal activities. Also provided are bioactive compositions and metabolites derived from cultures of Bacillus sp. isolate F727 capable of controlling pests; as well as methods of use of the strain and its metabolites for controlling pests.
