Summary Introduction
To review:
Bio-control agents with example.
Introduction:
Bio-technology is the study of living organisms in order to develop products that can be used by human beings to simplify their life. In bio-technology, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is manipulated for the production of hormones, antibiotics and many more. Application of bio-technology is widely used in the food industry, the marine industry and also, in the pharmaceutical industries.

What is biological control?
You are studying a biochemical pathway and isolate Neurospora mutants I, II, and III.Mutant I can grow if you supplement the medium with Z.Mutant II can grow if you supplement the medium with X, Y, or Z.Mutant III can grow if you supplement the medium with X and Z, but not with Y.
Draw a biochemical pathway that shows the correct order for compounds X, Y, and Z and for the enzymes that each mutant is defective for.
What are biological control agents? How are biological control agents discovered? What makes them so effective?

S. Department of Agriculture Research Station and assigned to a team that is investigating a new malady that has appeared in leaf cutter bees (shown below). Leaf cutter bees are solitary (i.e. non-social) bees which are essential pollinators for many of the crops that we feed livestock, such as alfalfa. The bees are becoming infected with a gram-positive bacteria that alters their immune response such that the bacteria cannot be eliminated and eventually the bees die. Your team is investigating how the bacteria might alter the bees’ immune response. You set up two groups of leaf cutter bees: the Treatment group is infected with the bacteria and the Control group is uninfected. You then compare the two groups for the different components of the insect immune system shown in the figures below (in Fig. 3 GLD = FAD-glucose dehydrogenase). Remember: P > 0.05 means the differences are…arrow_forward
