Aplicación del método de coagulación de plasma al estudio ultraestructural de especímenes biológicos
(1991)Biological particulate specimens, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast, bovine spermatozoa and human blood cells (normal erythrocytes and leukemic cells) were processed for scanning and transmission electron microscopy ... -
Biología molecular del virus del rayado fino del maíz
(1986-06)A condensed report of research on the molecular biology of Maize Rayado Fino Virus is offered, along with a tentative model for the capsid structure that fits the biochemical analysis of this virus. Given the existence of ... -
Catharanthus roseus (Apocynaceae) naturally infected with diverse phytoplasmas in Costa Rica
(2019-01-30)Phytoplasmas (class Mollicutes) are causal agents of plant diseases with an economic impact on crops or threatening local biodiversity. A survey was conducted from 2012 to 2016 on infected Catharanthus roseus plants that ... -
Characterization of a Bacillus thuringiensis strain collection isolated from diverse Costa Rican natural ecosystems
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2006-03-19)Como los ecosistemas naturales de Costa Rica figuran entre los más diversos del mundo, se propuso aislar la bacteria entomopatógena Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) con el fin de conformar una colección de cepas y caracterizarlas ... -
Comparación de dos métódos de preparación de tejido para estudiar la anatomía interna del delfácido Tagosodes orizicolus con microscopia de luz y electrónica
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 1997)Two methods of embedding, sectioning and staining were developed to study the intemal anatomy of the delphacid planthopper Tagosodes orizicolus, one of the most important plagues of rice in Latín America and the only vector ... -
Diversity of Bacillus thuringiensis strains isolated from coffee plantations infested with the coffee berry borer Hypothenemus hampei
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2004)The coffee berry borer Hypothenemus hampei Ferrari (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) was first reported infecting Costa Rican coffee plantations in the year 2000. Due to the impact that this plague has in the economy of the country, ... -
Una doble infección viral en orquídeas del género Cymbidium
(1986)A double -viral infection in Cymbidium hybrids is described. Virions were discovered by negative staining of sick plant sap, which showed a rigid type and a flexible virus. Two types of viral-cytoplasmatic inclusions, ... -
Does a polyphagous caterpillar have the same gut microbiota when feeding on different species of food plants?
(Revista de Biología Tropical 50(2): 547-560, 2002, 2002)We used classical culture techniques to explore gut bacteria and changes associated with dietary change in the highly polyphagous, tropical caterpillar Automeris zugana(Saturniidae). Fifty-five third instar wild-caught ... -
Estudios sobre la estabilidad del virus del rayado fino del maíz por degradación enzimática del ARN viral y microscopia electrónica de las partículas
(1986)The stability of "Maize Rayado Fino Virus" capsids was studied correlating enzymatic degradation analysis of the RNA in full capsids with electron microscopy of negatively stained particles. The great thermal stability of ... -
Expression of the rice hoja blanca virus (RHBV) non-structural protein 3 (NS3) in Escherichia coli and its in situ localization in RHBV-infected rice tissues
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2004)The non-structural NS3 protein gene from the rice hoja blanca virus (RHBV) was fused to the glutathione- S-transferase carboxilic end and expressed in Escherichia coli strain JM83. Large quantities of fusion protein were ... -
