Abstract
The present invention relates tocell lines established from pupal tissues ofSwinhoe, including NTU-LY-1, NTU-LY-2, NTU-LY-3, and NTU-LY-4. These four cell lines were confirmed to be newly established cell lines derived fromby random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) and isozyme analysis. The genotypes and characteristics of the abovementioned cell lines are totally different from other insect cell lines. In addition, these fourcell lines are susceptible to insect baculovirus ofmultiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (LyxyMNPV), LdMNPV-like virus, PenuMNPV, as well as microsporidia ofsp. (isolated from) andand the like. Therefore the invention can be applied in multiplication of the abovementioned insect-pathogenic microorganisms to produce biopesticides in pest control. In addition, the cell lines can also be used as hosts for the expression vectors of said baculovirus to produce recombinant proteins.
