Enhancement of Plutella xylostella Granulosis Virus Infection by Lecithin
Abstract: Lecithin was extracted by organic reagent from eggs and mixed with PxGV to infect 2th-3th instar Px larvae. Through the treatment of statistical method, we got three groups time-mortality regression lines, y=18.1x-59.8 (GV only), y=27.23x-99.85 (GV+30mg/ml lecithin) and y=13.6x-18 (GV+70mg/ml lecithin). Comparing with GV control group, mortality of GV+70mg/ml lecithin group increased by 17% and LT50 decreased by 1.066 days This result shows lecithin can enhance the infection of PxGV.
