Small nucleolar RNA R160 of the members of the box C/D family function in directing site-specific 2'-O-methylation of substrate RNAs. snoR160 was identified by computational screening of the rice "Oryza sativa" and is predicted to acts as a methylation guide for 25S ribosomal RNA in plants. snoR160 has also been alternatively named snoZ270 in rice. Small nucleolar RNA R160 Samm nucleolar RNA R160 (also known as snoR160) is a non-coding RNA (ncRNA) molecule identified in plants which functions in the modification of other small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs). This type of modifying RNA is usually located in the nucleolus of the eukaryotic cell which is
Mythimna separata light dorsal stripe, with black-brown lateral stripe along spiracle line. spiracles brown with black rim. Pupae are yellowish brown and shiny. The moth flies from January to April depending on the location. The larvae feed on a range of agricultural plants like "Zea mays", "Sorghum bicolor" and "Oryza sativa" and are thus considered a pest. Caterpillars do not feed on "Momordica charantia" due to the presence of the triterpenoid glucoside called momordicine II, which is a natural inhibitor of caterpillar actions. China experiences periodic outbreaks of northern armyworm infestation. The outbreak in 2012 was particularly severe. Larva can be hand
