“…Unboxed figures represent branch lengths as a percentage of the total tree length. The sources of the polyhedrin sequences used were as follows: AcNINPV (Ayres et al, 1994) ;BmNINPV (latrou et al, 1985) ; OpMNPV (Leisy et al, 1986) ; MbI'4NPV (Cameron & Possee, 1989) ; LdMNPV (Smith et al, 1988) ; SIMNPV (unpublished, GenBank accession no. DO1017).…”

Interest in insect baculoviruses has been stimulated by their potential as biological control agents and intensive research has focused on the improvement of their pesticidal properties by genetic engineering. Much of this effort has been directed at Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV). One approach taken has been the deletion of the AcMNPV egt gene. The egt gene product, ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase (EGT), catalyses the conjugation of insect ecdysteroid hormones with UDP-sugars (O'Reilly et al., I99I,

“…The disruption of a single gene has been shown to be sufficient to generate the FP phenotype in AcMNPV (1). It is likely that generation of FP mutants in LdMNPV and in AcMNPV occurs in the same way, since the genomes of these viruses are similar (5; for a review of AcMNPV, 7,23,25,26). The isolation of a LdMNPV FP mutant and the elucidation of the basis of the FP phenotype are prerequisite to efforts directed to prevent the genesis of this mutation during cell culture passage.…”

“…Larvae of Lymantria dispar were infected by feeding them virus on small plugs of diet on the first day of the fourth larval instar. Lymantria dispar nuclear polyhedrosis virus (LdMNPV) (Smith et al, 1988) was a generous gift from Alan Wood (Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA).…”

Baculovirus-mediated abnormal protein trafficking was studied in infected caterpillars by using heterologous proteins. The gene for human complement C1r was expressed in larvae of Mamestra brassicae by a recombinant Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcMNPV) vector. By following the time-course of recombinant C1r distribution among various tissues, cell types and cell organelles, we concluded that the dominant site of recombinant protein synthesis was the fat body, although some production in the haemocytes and midgut was also observed. Only about 4 % of the cells of the infected organs expressed recombinant C1r, which was then secreted into the haemolymph. The tracheal and integumental cuticle was rich in recombinant protein from the fourth day after infection although epidermal cells did not syn-
