USE OF SATIVENE, AND RECOMBINANT BIOCONTROL FUNGUS AND MUSCARDINE CADAVER AND USE THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240251802 titled 'USE OF SATIVENE, AND RECOMBINANT BIOCONTROL FUNGUS AND MUSCARDINE CADAVER AND USE THEREOF
The present disclosure involves the use of sativene, a recombinant biocontrol fungus, and a muscardine cadaver in the field of genetic engineering. Sativene is utilized for insect attraction and pest control due to its attractiveness to insects, particularly mosquitoes and larvae.
- Sativene has a strong attraction on mosquitoes and larvae, even at low concentrations.
- Larvae respond to sativene at levels as low as 10g.
- Sativene is also attractive to larvae.
- A recombinant biocontrol fungus with a pine longifolene synthesis gene has increased amounts of longifolene and sativene, enhancing its attraction to insects.
Potential Applications: - Pest control in agriculture - Mosquito control in public health programs - Biological control of insect populations in various industries
Problems Solved: - Reduction of insect populations without the use of harmful chemicals - Targeted pest control methods - Enhanced effectiveness in attracting and controlling insects
Benefits: - Environmentally friendly pest control - Reduced reliance on chemical pesticides - Targeted control of specific insect populations
Commercial Applications: Title: "Biocontrol Fungus and Sativene for Pest Control in Agriculture" This technology can be used in agricultural settings to control pest populations, reducing crop damage and increasing yields. It can also be marketed to public health agencies for mosquito control programs.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the use of sativene compare to traditional chemical pesticides in terms of effectiveness? - Sativene offers a more environmentally friendly approach to pest control compared to chemical pesticides, with targeted attraction and control of specific insect populations. 2. What are the potential regulatory considerations for using a recombinant biocontrol fungus in agriculture? - Regulatory considerations may include approval processes for genetically modified organisms and environmental impact assessments.
Original Abstract Submitted
the present disclosure provides use of sativene, and a recombinant biocontrol fungus and a muscardine cadaver and use thereof, belonging to the technical field of genetic engineering. the present disclosure provides use of sativene in insect attraction and/or pest control. the sativene are attractive to insects. a higher concentration of the sativene has a stronger attraction on mosquito and larvae; the larvae respond to the sativene even at a level as low as 10g. the sativene also be attractive to larvae. the present disclosure further provides a recombinant biocontrol fungus, including a recombinant fungal expression plasmid, where the recombinant fungal expression plasmid is inserted with a pine longifolene synthesis gene. in the present disclosure, the recombinant biocontrol fungus has increased synthetic amounts and volatilized amounts of the longifolene and sativene, resulting in an enhanced attraction to insects.
