Naturally Occurring Quinones Modulate Haemagglutinin Activity in Poekilocerus pictus Fab. (Acrididae, Orthoptera)

Abstract The present work is an attempt to explore haemagglutination activity of haemolymph of the short horned grasshopper Poekilocerus pictus as an impact of induced infection and modulation of the effects by naturally occurring quinones, Juglone and Plumbagin. The grasshoppers were artificially infected using three different species of bacteria viz. Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aerugenosa, and Escherichia coli. The naturally occurring bacteria in the grasshopper have been isolated, cultured and used as above to compare the results elicited by exogenous microbes. Effects of administration of two plant derived quinones, Juglone and Plumbagin on haemagglutinin (lectin) activity was studied in healthy and infected grasshoppers. The study has mainly involved haemagglutination tests and SDS-PAGE of haemolymph of the above experimental groups. The results have revealed that both the quinones adversely affect haemagglutinin activity of haemolymph. The protein profile obtained by electrophoresis analysis also showed lesser number of bands in haemolymph of infected and quinone treated as well as infected quinone treated (synergistically treated) grasshoppers in comparison to healthy individuals. It is expected that the results would be useful addition to the field of insect immunity as well as to studies on mode of action of quinones which also have insect growth regulatory properties.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
