Subject field(s)
  • Insects, Centipedes, Spiders, and Scorpions
  • Animal Pests (Crops)
Universal entry(ies)
CONT

Sugarbeet root maggot adult flies are similar in size and appearance to the house fly(about 1/4 inch). Unlike the house fly, the body is shiny black with few hairs. The wings of this fly are transparent with a smoky-brown patch located on the front of the wing about one-third the distance from the wing base. Also, the legs have yellowish-white bands on the next to last segment("ankles"), with the rest of the leg being black.

CONT

Sugarbeet root maggot: Tetanops myopaeformis ... Sugarbeet root maggots feed on succulent roots and cause plants to wilt and become stunted. Their feeding scrapes the root surface and may provide entry points for soilborne pathogens.

  • Insectes, mille-pattes, araignées et scorpions
  • Animaux nuisibles aux cultures

Record 2 2012-10-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Genetics
DEF

A plasmid, normally indigenous to Agrobacterium rhizogenis, which is the agent of the "hairy root" disease.

OBS

A segment of the plasmid, T-DNA is inserted into the plant genome during the course of infection. The DNA alters the development of the root, resulting in extensive growth and branching.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Génétique
DEF

Plasmide responsable de la prolifération radiculaire des racines chez les plantes infectées par Agrobacterium rhyzogenes, agent de la «maladie capillaire des racines».

OBS

Un segment du plasmide, soit l'ADN-T, est inséré dans le génome de la plante durant le processus infectieux. Cet ADN-T modifie la croissance des racines et a pour effet de provoquer leur allongement de façon considérable.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Genética
DEF

Clase de plásmidos conjugativos de tamaño grande que se encuentran en la bacteria del suelo Agrobacterium rhizogenes, y que pueden infectar ciertas plantas, causando la enfermedad de las raíces en cabellera.

OBS

Lo mismo que los plásmidos Ti [inductor de tumores], los plásmidos Ri contienen secuencias que son transferidas a las células vegetales e insertadas en su ADN como parte del proceso de infección.

OBS

Ti y Ri por sus siglas en inglés.
