Introduction to Ecological Biochemistry
T. Reynolds,Jeffrey B. Harborne +1 more
TL;DR: Hormonal interactions between plants and animals illustrate how sophisticated and complex biochemical interrelationships can become, and a chapter on higher-plant-higher-plant interactions makes it clear that secondary compounds of plants may be weapons of offence as well as defence.

The Synergistic Effects of Insecticidal Essential Oils and Piperonyl Butoxide on Biotransformational Enzyme Activities in Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)
TL;DR: This study indicates a synergistic interaction between essential oils and PBO in inhibiting the cytochrome P450 and GST detoxification enzymes in Ae.

Potentiation Effects of Ficus sycomorus Active Fraction Against Permethrin-Resistant Field-Population of Anopheles coluzzii (Diptera: Culicidae)
TL;DR: In this article, preliminary insecticidal and botanical potentiating effects of sub-lethal concentration (LC25) Ficus sycomorus active fraction (AFFS) and its synergistic potential with standard insecticide permethrin were evaluated against malarial vector Anopheles coluzzii (Coetzee & Wilkerson) populations.

A rapid and sensitive method for the quantitation of microgram quantities of protein utilizing the principle of protein-dye binding
TL;DR: This assay is very reproducible and rapid with the dye binding process virtually complete in approximately 2 min with good color stability for 1 hr with little or no interference from cations such as sodium or potassium nor from carbohydrates such as sucrose.
Journal ArticleDOI
G proteins: transducers of receptor-generated signals
TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-analysis of G Protein Interactions and its Foundations, which states that G Proteins are Law-Regulated and G Protein-Effector Interactions are Nonvolatile.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant essential oils for pest and disease management
TL;DR: The range of biological activities of essential oils and their constituents is reviewed, their toxicity and proposed mode-of-action in insects; their potential health and environmental impacts as crop protectants; and commercialization of pesticides based on plant essential oils are reviewed.
