dc.description.abstractOryctes rhinoceros beetles, when infected with Oryctes baculovirus, excreted gut epithelial cells having hypertrophied nuclei, between the third and ninth day post-inoculation. Detection of such abnormal nuclei in the excreta was used as a method of diagnosis of baculovirus infection in field-collected beetles, needed alive for various experiments. This method eliminates the need for sacrificing the beetles for mid-gut examination, a routine method of diagnosis.en_US
