Abstract: Arguelles, Pamela R. Detection of Lectin form Three Species of Lepidopterous Larvae. Undergraduate Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture major in Crop Protection-Entomology. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April, 2002. Adviser: Dr. Evelyn O. Singson. The study aimed to determine the presence of lectin on different species of lepidopterous larvae and compare lectin dependency on temperature and calcium ion. A 3x7x2x2 factor factorial experiment was laid out using a Completely Randomized Design with three replications. The study was conducted at the Crop Protection Laboratory, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite and Institute of Chemistry of the Philippines, Los Banos, College, Laguna from October 2001 to January 2002. Through hemagglutination assay, lectin was detected on three species of lepidopterous larvae using different human blood group and animal blood. The detected lectin belongs to a non-specific lectin that agglutinates cells without regards of their origin (either species or blood group). Among the three species, Plutella xylostella showed the highest lectin activity followed by Hippotion sp. and Papilio eurymedon. Lectins from Plutella xylostella and Papilio eurymedon belongs to a non C-type lectins and non cold agglutinins while Hippotion sp is a C-type lectin for specific human blood group B and AB and is a cold agglutinins on human blood group B and O.

The study aimed to determine the presence of lectin on different species of lepidopterous larvae and
compare lectin dependency on temperature and calcium ion. A 3x7x2x2 factor factorial experiment was
laid out using a Completely Randomized Design with three replications.

The study was conducted at the Crop Protection Laboratory, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite and
Institute of Chemistry of the Philippines, Los Banos, College, Laguna from October 2001 to January 2002.
Through hemagglutination assay, lectin was detected on three species of lepidopterous larvae using
different human blood group and animal blood.

The detected lectin belongs to a non-specific lectin that agglutinates cells without regards of their origin
(either species or blood group). Among the three species, Plutella xylostella showed the highest lectin
activity followed by Hippotion sp. and Papilio eurymedon.

Lectins from Plutella xylostella and Papilio eurymedon belongs to a non C-type lectins and non cold
agglutinins while Hippotion sp is a C-type lectin for specific human blood group B and AB and is a cold
agglutinins on human blood group B and O.
