BmNPV (Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus) causes nuclear polyhedrosis in silkworms. The tolerance of silkworms to BmNPV is controlled by polygenes. This paper reports on the relative tolerance of silkworm breeds among the germplasm maintained at Andhra Pradesh State Sericultural Research ＆ Development Institute (APSSRDI), Hindupur, India. The silkworm larvae out of second moult were per orally inoculated with BmNPV polyhedra $(l{\times}l0^{th}//ml)$ and reared upto spinning. The response to BmNPV had been categorized into apparent tolerance, real tolerance and susceptibility. Among the 145 silkworm breeds screened, 18 bivoltines and 16 polyvoltines were found to have real tolerance to BmNPV.

Baculovirus transfer and expression vectors with Hyphantria cunea nuclear polyhedrosis virus (HcNPV) were constructed. An initial transfer vector, pHcEV, constructed using HcNPV was previously reported (Park et al. 1993. J. Kor. Soc. Viral. 23: 141-151). Herein, the size of the vector was properly reduced, and a functionally perfect vector was constructed and named pHcEV-IV (6.7 kb). The vector has a 2.2-kb HcNPV DNA sequence in the 5'-flanking region of the vector's polyhedrin gene promoter. The 1.8-kb HcNPV DNA sequence, poly A signal sequence, T3 primer sequence, and 13 multicloning site sequences, in order, were ligated in front of the translation start codon of the polyhedrin gene. The cloning indicating marker lacZ gene was inserted into the pHcEV-IV, named pHcEV-IV-lacZ, and transferred into the wild-type virus. Recombinant expression virus, lacZ-HcNPV, was constructed by replacing the lacZ gene in the pHcEV-IV-lacZ with the polyhedrin gene of the wild-type virus. The recombinant virus was isolated from blue plaques that produce $\beta$-galactosidase without polyhedra. The lacZ gene insertion was confirmed by Southern hybridization analysis. The expression of the lacZ gene in Spodoptera frugiperda cells infected with the lacZ-HcNPV was examined by SDS-PAGE and colorimetric assay. One 116-kDa LacZ protein band appeared on the PAGE. The production rate of the $\beta$-galactosidase was approximately 50 international units (IU) per min per ml between 2 to 5 days postinfection (p.i.). The highest activity occurred at five days p.i. was 170 IU/min/$m\ell$. The enzyme activity first appeared about 20 h p.i. as measured by colorimetric assay.

Autographa californica Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus의 Nucleocapsids의 형성과 Polyhedra Occlusion Bodies의 형성을 Spodoptera frugiperda 세포에 감염된 후 3 일째 된 것을 관찰하였다. 1. A. californica NPV는 Spodoptera 세포의 핵내에서 분열복제되어 Nucleocapsid를 형성하여, 외투막을 얻은 후에 Polyhedra Occlusion Bodies 로 함입 되었다. 2. A. californica NPV가 감염된 세포의 핵은 팽창되어 핵막이 세포질까지 거의 신장되어 있었다. 3. Polyhedra Occlusion Bodies의 형성은 NPV로 감염된 세포에서 작은 엉성한 단백질 또는 Polypeptides가 점진적으로 커지면서 바이리스들이 함입되면서 더욱 덩치가 커지게 되고, 세포질내에 NPV 바이러스들이 없어지면 Polyhedra는 외부에 매끈한 막을 형성하는 것이 관찰되었다. 4. Polyhedra Occlusion Bodies의 형태는 바이러스 다발이 함입되어 있는 상태에 따라서 다양하였다. 5. Polyhedra 에 있는 바이러스 다발들은 외투막을 가지며 바이러스사이에도 기저물질이 존재하는 것을 볼 수 있었다.

Propagation of Anagrapha falcifera nuclear polyhedrosis virus(AfNPV) was investigated using well-plates and split-flow air-lift bioreactors. In well-plate experiments, the effects of pH, cell density at a point of infection, serum concentration, DEAE-dextran, and lipid on virus propagation were all closely examined. The AfNPV titer in well-plates was optimal at pH 6.8 and $3{\times}10^6$ cells/$cm^2$. The virus titer was not dramatically affected when the fetal bovine serum concentration was reduced from 10% to 5%. The addition of cholesterol at AfNPV infection of Sf21 cells enhanced the virus titer, whereas the addition of DEAE-dextran did not improve the titer. The AfNPV titer ($3.8{\times}10^7$ $TCID_{50}/ml$) at optimized conditions for well-plate experiments was 2.5-fold higher than for the control. In bioreactor experiments, the AfNPV titer showed its maximum level at air flow rates of 20-40 ml/min. In a split-flow air-lift bioreactor, AfNPV titer ($2.3{\times}10^7\;TCID_{50}/ml$) was 1.5-fold higher than the control when the culture was at pH 6.8 and supplemented with 0.34 mM cholesterol.

Baculoviruses base vectors come to be regarded as methods for in vivo gene delivery and transient expression to the silkworm. In the case of silkworm, B. mori, two types of baculoviruses, AcNPV (Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus) and BmNPV (Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus), are potentially applicable as vectors. Recently, AcNPV showed promising results with some silkworm strains despite different host-specificities. We searched for a highly-permissive silkworm strain in the B. mori stocks of Kyungpook National University that could produce high levels of recombinant protein. Seventy strains were screened using the recombinant AcNPV/BmA3-Luc virus. Based on the measured luciferase activity, the strains could be divided into three groups, high-, middle-, and low-permissive strains, according to their relative recombinant protein expression levels. At 48 hours post-injection, the luciferase activity in the high-permissive strains was 500-fold greater than that of the low-permissive strains. At 72 hours post-injection, a significant elevation in luciferase activity was observed in the hemocytes of all strains. Then, based on the above results, the High Permissive Strain (HPS) S10 and the Low Permissive Strain (LPS) S39 were pick up and was carried out Dot blotting, RT-PCR and Real time PCR.

Bovine growth hormone (bGH) gene was expressed in an insect Spodoptera frugiperda cell line using a Baculovirus, Hyphantria cunea nuclear polyhedrosis virus (HcNPV). The bGH gene in pbGH plasmid was sequenced and amplified by PCR technique with two primers containing NcoI sites. The bGH gene consisted of 654 bp (217 amino acid residues), the 5'-untranslated region of the cloned bGH cDNA contains 56 bp, and the 3'-untranslated region contains 145 bp and two pallindromic regions. The amplified bGH gene DNA fragment (654 bp) was inserted into the NcoI site of the pHcEVII vector, which was named pHcbGH. The pHcbGH transfer vector DNA and the wild type HcNPV DNA were cotransfected into S. frugiperda cells to construct a recombinant virus. Eight recombinant viruses were selected and named HcbGH. One clone, HcbGH-4-1 showed largest plaque size, therefore the recombinant virus was further studied. The multiplication pattern of the recombinant HcbGH-4-1 was similar to that of the wild type HcNPV. The bGH gene DNA in the HcbGH-4-1 recombinant was confirmed by Southern blot hybridization. The amount of the bGH (217 amino acid residues, 21 kDa) produced in S. frugiperda cells infected with the HcbGH-4-1 recombinant was approximately 5.5 ng per ml ($10^6$ cells) by radioimmunoassay.
