Binding of garlic (Allium sativum) leaf lectin to the gut receptors of homopteran pests is correlated to its insecticidal activity
TL;DR: The ligand-binding ability of this lectin, correlated with the insecticidal property, facilitated to ascertain the mode of action of the particular lectin on above mentioned insects physiology and opens up the possibility of using garlic leaf lectin as a potent control agent to engineer crop plants for insect resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficiency of mannose-binding plant lectins in controlling a homopteran insect, the red cotton bug
TL;DR: The purification of mannose-binding lectins from three different monocotyledonous plants are described and their effects on a homopteran insect, the red cotton bug, and the same bulb lectin shows the highest mortality, opening up a possibility of using this lectin as an important component in crop management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effectiveness of garlic lectin on red spider mite of tea
TL;DR: The insecticidal activity of the mixture of ASA lectins was tested against red spider mite in an artificial diet and opens up a possibility of using the ASA genes against redSpider mite through tea transgenic approach.
