Effects of phytohemagglutinin (PHA) on the structure of midgut epithelial cells and localization of its binding sites in western tarnished plant bug, Lygus hesperus Knight

Two histological techniques, bright-field microscopy and immunofluoresecent staining were used to elucidate the lethal effect, target tissues and binding sites of phytohemagglutinin (PHA), a lectin from Phaseolus vulgaris L., on the western tarnished plant bug. Bright-field microscopy showed that th...
