    ANSF Publications
    Silkworms' Gut are home to various microorganisms, including viruses, fungi, and bacteria. Bacteria are the most prevalent and varied group, with more than 100 species known to exist. These bacteria are members of several phyla, such as Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Bacteroidetes. A wide variety of beneficial bacteria are found in the gut of silkworms. Probiotics mainly influence some aspects of the immune system and gut health by interacting with the complex community of intestinal bacteria known as the gut microbiota. Certain bacteria produce essential vitamins, amino acids, and other nutrients, while others help break down dietary fibres. Silkworms are an invaluable model organism for gut microbiota research due to their significance in ecology and economy. The present review discusses the diversity and functions of bacteria in silkworm digestive tracts and explores potential applications of these microbes in other sectors of the economy. The findings of this study have highlighted the importance and potential of silkworm gut microbiota, as well as the prospective applications of these microbes in the future to enhance silkworm health and resistance to illness. Thus, comprehending the relationships between silkworms and the bacteria in their stomachs may offer fresh perspectives on the biology of these significant insects and open the door to the creation of innovative methods for increasing silk production.  

  • Probiotic bacteria as a healthy alternative for fish and biological control agents in aquaculture
    Pankaj Das, Puspakhi Borah, Ramashankar Bordoloi, Amrit Pegu, Rupam Dutta, and Chittaranjan Baruah
    ANSF Publications
    Aquaculture is a rapidly expanding sector that contributes significantly to the global food supply, with Asia accounting for 90% of production and India being the second largest aquaculture fish producer. Probiotics are used in aquaculture techniques because of the need for aquatic organism development, higher disease resistance, and feed efficiency.  Several potential probiotics have been shown to produce antimicrobial substances that inhibit the growth of harmful microbes and preserve intestinal microecological equilibrium by allowing them to stick to stomach surfaces, thus impairing pathogenic growth. Aquaculture has benefited various industries, pharmaceuticals, and global food security in recent decades. Nevertheless, the stress conditions that aquatic creatures experience in aquaculture cause fish to become less resilient to illness and weaken their immune systems. Therefore, impacts local people's socioeconomic conditions and economic progress in many nations. Several approaches, including conventional practices, artificial chemicals, and antibiotics, have been used to control disease in the aquaculture sector. Hence, alternative techniques are far more important to keep the microbial ecosystem in aquaculture systems healthy. This review pre- sents the current understanding of probiotic use in aquaculture as a healthy alternative for fish and biological control agents in aquaculture and to find out its future direction for research.

  • The emergence of nanovaccines as a new paradigm in virological vaccinology: a review
    Chittaranjan Baruah, Pankaj Das, Papari Devi, Palash Moni Saikia, and Bhabesh Deka
    Open Exploration Publishing
    Vaccination has made an enormous contribution to global health. Treatment resistance for infectious diseases is growing quickly, and chemotherapeutic toxicity in cancer means that vaccines must be made right away to save humanity. But subunit vaccinations alone don’t give enough strong and long-lasting protection against infections that can kill. Nanoparticle (NP)-based delivery vehicles, such as dendrimers, liposomes, micelles, virosomes, nanogels, and microemulsions, offer interesting ways to get around the problems with traditional vaccine adjuvants. The nanovaccines (50–250 nm in size) are most efficient in terms of tissue targeting, staying in the bloodstream for a long time. Nanovaccines can improve antigen presentation, targeted delivery, stimulation of the body’s innate immune system, and a strong T-cell response without putting people at risk. This can help fight infectious diseases and cancers. Also, nanovaccines can be very helpful for making cancer treatments that use immunotherapy. So, this review highlights the various types of NPs used in the techniques that have worked in the new paradigm in viral vaccinology for infectious diseases. It gives a full rundown of the current NP-based vaccines, their potential as adjuvants, and the ways they can be delivered to cells. In the future, the best nanovaccines will try to be more logically designed, have more antigens in them, be fully functionalized, and be given to the right people.

    ANSF Publications
    Northeast India has various water bodies including the tributaries of the Brahmaputra and Barak river systems, wetlands, lakesand beels. These water bodies support the diversity of many fish species. Seasonal changes in the number of fish species inthe SIS category were also observed and they are most abundant during the winter and least abundant during the monsoonseason. Many researchers collected fish data from Assam's rivers and wetlands, particularly small indigenous species (SIS).Small Indigenous Species (SIS) of fish are a vital and conveniently accessible source of rare protein, vitamins, and minerals intraditional diets. The present study aimed to review Assam's small indigenous fish species and their nutritional worth. Thesources of the review article were Google Scholar, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, and PubMed for SIS nutrition composition,fish nutritional profile, and fish proximate composition. Northeast India’s rural inhabitants get their sustenance from fish SIS. TheSIS of Northeast India fish species contain proteins, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and vital macro- and micronutrients. The proteincontent of SIS range from 12.49% to 18.30% (12.49–18.30g/100 g), lipid content from 0.7% to 19.63% (0.7–19.63g/100 g),moisture content from 65.88% to 82.8% (65.88–82.8g/100 g), and ash level from 2% to 6.8% (2–6.8g/100 g). This review suggests SIS has adequate nutritional benefits because it is an excellent source of proteins, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids necessary for optimal health. Northeast India’s impoverished region might achieve their nutritional demands by eating more SIS of fish.

  • A ray of hope in the darkness: What we have learned from Yangtze giant soft-shell turtle Rafetus swinhoei (Gray, 1873) conservation?

    Turtle Conservation and Research Programme Foundation
    The Swinhoe's softshell turtle, Rafetus swinhoei (Gray, 1873),) is one of the world's largest freshwater turtles, and possibly the most endangered turtle species on the planet (Stanford et al., 2018). It has an overall length of over 100 cm and a width of up to 70 cm, and it can easily weigh up to 70–100 kg, maximum weight was recorded at 169 kg (Solimine, 2013; Trong, 2018).

  • Plant Extracts as Potential Acaricides for the Management of Red Spider Mite, Oligonychus coffeae Nietner (Acarina: Tetranychidae), in the Tea Ecosystem: An Eco-Friendly Strategy
    Bhabesh Deka, Azariah Babu, Chittaranjan Baruah, and Suman Sarkar
    Frontiers Media SA
    The effects of the application of aqueous extracts of a selection of five traditional plants (Murraya paniculata, Cassia tora, Amphineuron opulentum, Tithonia diversifolia, andCassia alata) were compared with that of synthetic acaricide in reducing the population of red spider mite (Oligonychus coffeae), a major tea pest, alongside their impact on natural enemies and green leaf yield. Analysis of large-scale field trials showed that all the five plants extract treatments resulted in similar yield; this was analogous to the application of synthetic acaricide. A reduction in the pest population was observed to be on par with the synthetic acaricide, with a higher number of natural enemies treated using the pesticide-plant-treated plot in comparison to the synthetic acaricide-treated plot, which indicated pesticidal plants had a lower impact on natural enemies. A phytotoxicity study on tea leaves indicated that aqueous extracts of selected plants are non-phytotoxic and do not impart any taint to the prepared tea samples. Therefore, the present investigation outlines how plant extracts used as a botanical pesticide display toxicity against red spider mite on tea plants without harming the beneficial insects, increasing the yield and avoiding any lethal consequence for the tea plants or consumers.

    Turtle Conservation and Research Programme Foundation
    COVID-19 is possibly the greatest and most enormously significant crisis against humans in the planet's modern history. The group of Coronaviridae includes viruses with very long RNA genomes of up to 33,500 nucleotides. SARS-CoV-2 belongs to the Sarbecovirus family, with an approximate genome size of 30.000 nucleotides (Wu et al., 2020). SARS-CoV-2 has four main structural proteins: spike (S), envelope (E), membrane (M), and nucleocapsid (N). Additionally, some other non-structural proteins are encoded in the pp1a and pp1ab polyproteins, essential for viral replication (Wu et al., 2020; Baruah et al., 2020; Baruah et al., 2021; Sharma and Baruah, 2021). The coronavirus has upended our way of life, but it's also having a dramatic impact on animals across the globe too, from black rhinos being poached in Botswana to a coughing tiger in New York and emboldened goats on the streets of Wales.

  • Entomopathogenic microorganisms: their role in insect pest management
    Bhabesh Deka, Chittaranjan Baruah, and Azariah Babu
    Springer Science and Business Media LLC
    Abstract Background Entomopathogens are pathogenic to insect pests. Several types of naturally occurring, viz. fungus, bacteria, viruses, and nematodes, infect a range of insect pests and help manage crop growth. They offer several advantages over chemical pesticides, including being precise, safe, and ecologically sustainable. Agricultural systems are streamlined, and changes to natural ecosystems occur. Viruses, bacteria are host-specific, while fungi have a greater host range, and they may infect both soil-dwelling and aboveground pests. Main body The study highlights the current state of knowledge on entomopathogenic microorganisms (EM) (entomopathogenic fungi, nematodes, viruses, bacteria, etc.) as it relates to their current usage as biological pest management. It is essential to enhance our understanding of the ecology of EM and their role in nature to use a variety of biological control techniques against insect hosts. This article may help to comprehend their accomplishments in the significant field. Some recent researches indicated common patterns in interactions between insect pests and EM. Conclusion More focus has been placed on the use of natural enemies like entomopathogens for pest control in recent years. EM expands possibilities for insect control. Eco-friendly alternatives to existing agricultural pesticides are being developed which are utilized to control insect pests and support agricultural sustainability.

  • Nanopesticides: A Systematic Review of Their Prospects With Special Reference to Tea Pest Management
    Bhabesh Deka, Azariah Babu, Chittaranjan Baruah, and Manash Barthakur
    Frontiers Media SA
    Background: Tea is a natural beverage made from the tender leaves of the tea plant (Camellia sinensis Kuntze). Being of a perennial and monoculture nature in terms of its cultivation system, it provides a stable micro-climate for various insect pests, which cause substantial loss of crop. With the escalating cost of insect pest management and increasing concern about the adverse effects of the pesticide residues in manufactured tea, there is an urgent need to explore other avenues for pest management strategies.Aim: Integrated pest management (IPM) in tea invites an multidisciplinary approach owing to the high pest diversity in the perennial tea plantation system. In this review, we have highlighted current developments of nanotechnology for crop protection and the prospects of nanoparticles (NPs) in plant protection, emphasizing the control of different major pests of tea plantations.Methods: A literature search was performed using the ScienceDirect, Web of Science, Pubmed, and Google Scholar search engines with the following terms: nanotechnology, nanopesticides, tea, and insect pest. An article search concentrated on developments after 1988.Results: We have described the impact of various pests in tea production and innovative approaches on the use of various biosynthesized and syntheric nanopesticides against specific insect pest targets. Simultaneously, we have provided support for NP-based technology and their different categories that are currently employed for the management of pests in different agro-ecosystems. Besides the broad categories of active ingredients (AI) of synthetic insecticides, pheromones and natural resource-based molecules have pesticidal activity and can also be used with NPs as a carriers as alternatives to traditional pest control agents. Finally, the merits and demerits of incorporating NP-based nanopesticides are also illustrated.Conclusions: Nanopesticides for plant protection is an emerging research field, and it offers new methods to design active ingredients amid nanoscale dimensions. Nanopesticide-based formulations have a potential and bright future for the development of more effective and safer pesticide/biopesticides.

  • In silico tertiary structure prediction and evolutionary analysis of two DNA-binding proteins (DBP-1 and DBP-2) from Hyposidra talaca nucleopolyhedrovirus (HytaNPV)

    Springer Science and Business Media LLC
    Hyposidra talaca is a vicious pest of tea plants in the Eastern Himalayan’s Darjeeling foothills and NE India. The infestation of this pest leads to crop loss, as early instars prefer to feed the young harvestable leaves and late instars feed the matured leaves, which leads to loss of photosynthetic capacity of the entire tea bush. Among the few accessible methods to control H. talaca is the baculovirus H. talaca nucleopolyhedrovirus (HytaNPV). DNA-binding protein (DBP) plays a significant role in HytaNPV during viral replication and transcription. The present study attempted to predict the structure and the functional analysis of two crucial DNA-binding proteins (DBP-1 and DBP-2) in the absence of experimental structures. Analysis of sequence, prediction of structure, functional characterization, and evolutionary analysis based on UniProtKB studied the amino acid sequences of DBP-1 and DBP-2 proteins. Modeling of these two proteins was presented using ab-initio modeling. QMEANDisCo 4.0.0 global and local per-residue quality estimates verified the structure as high quality. Phylogenetic analysis of both HytaNPV DBP-1 and DBP-2 proteins revealed a close evolutionary relationship with Buzura suppressaria nucleopolyhedrovirus. Tunnel analysis revealed multiple tunnels in DBP-1 (six) and DBP-2 (eleven), indicating a large number of transport pathways for small ligands that influence their reactivity. The theoretical structures and statistical verifications were successfully deposited in the Model Archive. They will be useful for advanced computational analysis of each protein’s interactions for detailed functional analysis and understanding of viral pathogenesis in the absence of a complete experimental structure.

    Abstract The red spider mite, Oligonychus coffeae Nietner (Acari: Tetranychidae), is a prevalent mite pest damages tea crops. The present study evaluated the efficacy of L. alba essential oil against O. coffeae. GC and GC-MS analysis of L. alba essential oil revealed geraniol (52.19%) and neral (34.13%) as major compounds. The L. alba essential oil applied at 1500 ppm exhibited 100% mortality of treated mites 48 h after exposure through fumigant toxicity method, while 99% ovicidal activity of essential oil was achieved at 1000 ppm. Similarly, in fumigant bioassay LC50 value against O. coffeae was 87.75 ppm for geraniol and 103.49 ppm for neral at 72 h after exposure. The findings suggest that L. alba essential oil and its major constituents geraniol and neral could be used as eco-friendly acaricide, and can be incorporated as one of the components in IPM after multi-location field trials.

  • Sequence Analysis and Structure Prediction of SARS-CoV-2 Accessory Proteins 9b and ORF14: Evolutionary Analysis Indicates Close Relatedness to Bat Coronavirus
    Chittaranjan Baruah, Papari Devi, and Dhirendra K. Sharma
    Hindawi Limited
    Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has a single-stranded RNA genome that encodes 14 open reading frames (ORFs), eight of which encode accessory proteins that allow the virus to infect the host and promote virulence. The genome expresses around 29 structural and nonstructural protein products. The accessory proteins of SARS-CoV-2 are not essential for virus replication but do affect viral release, stability, and pathogenesis and finally contribute to virulence. This paper has attempted the structure prediction and functional analysis of two such accessory proteins, 9b and ORF14, in the absence of experimental structures. Sequence analysis, structure prediction, functional characterization, and evolutionary analysis based on the UniProtKB reviewed the amino acid sequences of SARS-CoV-2 9b (P0DTD2) and ORF14 (P0DTD3) proteins. Modeling has been presented with the introduction of hybrid comparative and ab initio modeling. QMEANDisCo 4.0.0 and ProQ3 for global and local (per residue) quality estimates verified the structures as high quality, which may be attributed to structure-based drug design targets. Tunnel analysis revealed the presence of 1-2 highly active tunneling sites, perhaps which will able to provide certain inputs for advanced structure-based drug design or to formulate potential vaccines in the absence of a complete experimental structure. The evolutionary analysis of both proteins of human SARS-CoV-2 indicates close relatedness to the bat coronavirus. The whole-genome phylogeny indicates that only the new bat coronavirus followed by pangolin coronaviruses has a close evolutionary relationship with the novel SARS-CoV-2.
