Gonadal sex differentiation and sex control in red sea bream, Pagrus major     

K. Kato  S. Miyashita  O. Murata  H. Kumai 《Fish physiology and biochemistry》2003,28(1-4):155-156

The gonadal sex differentiation in red sea bream, Pagrus major, which is one of the most important species for aquaculture in Japan, was revealed histologically. The suitable conditions for induction of all-male groups in the fish were investigated, and functional males were induced by the conditions of oral administration of 17α-methyltestosterone. The sex determination of this fish was also discussed.  相似文献

Application of short-time magnetic resonance examination for intervertebral disc diseases in dogs     

Yamada K  Nakagawa M  Kato T  Shigeno S  Hirose T  Miyahara K  Sato M 《The Journal of veterinary medical science / the Japanese Society of Veterinary Science》2001,63(1):51-54

The usefulness of magnetic resonance (MR) is already established, but it has a disadvantage of requiring a long scanning time. A short-time examination is more or less needed so as to be more practical in veterinary clinics. A protocol of the short-time MR examination was devised based on parameters determined, and validity of the protocol was assessed through the diagnosis of clinical cases with intervertebral disc diseases. With this protocol, it was possible to complete an MR examination for the spine within 15 min. The MR images and myelographic findings were correlated well in this study, suggesting the short-time protocol of MR examination can be used in the clinical diagnosis of spinal diseases.  相似文献   

Identification of Trichoderma SKT-1, a biological control agent against seedborne pathogens of rice     

Satoshi Watanabe  Kazuo Kumakura  Hideki Kato  Hiroyuki Iyozumi  Masayuki Togawa  Kozo Nagayama 《Journal of General Plant Pathology》2005,71(5):351-356

Trichoderma SKT-1 was previously reported as a powerful biological control agent against seedborne pathogens of rice, but the taxonomic disposition of the fungal isolate was not clear. Trichoderma SKT-1 produced irregular pyramidal warts on conidia and had an optimum growth temperature of 30°C. Morphological characteristics and colony growth were identical to those of known species of Trichoderma, including the newly recognized species T. asperellum. The 5.8S rDNA with the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region (ca. 514 bp) of the fungus was compared with those of known species to determine the phylogenetic placement of the fungus. The length and sequence of the regions from Trichoderma SKT-1 were completely identical to those of an isolate of T. asperellum NRRL 5242 (AJ230669). On the basis of these results, we concluded that Trichoderma SKT-1 was T. asperellum.  相似文献   

Genetic relationships between the dominant genotypes of Phytophthora infestans in Hokkaido, Japan     

Seishi Akino  Masayasu Kato  Kiyotaka Gotoh  Shigeo Naito  Akira Ogoshi 《Journal of General Plant Pathology》2005,71(3):200-203

The genetic characteristics of the dominant genotypes of Phytophthora infestans in Japan (US-1, JP-1, Japanese A1-A, A1-B) were compared. Differences were evident in the peptidase genotype, amplified fragment length polymorphism, and RG57 DNA fingerprints. Almost all of the fingerprint bands for the Japanese genotype A1-B were also present in JP-1 and Japanese A1-A, and few bands were unique to Japanese A1-B. These results suggest that the Japanese A1-B genotype was generated from sexual reproduction involving Japanese A1-A and JP-1 or related genotypes.  相似文献

Cytotoxicity for porcine islet cells by complement of six animal species     

Itakura S  Kato H  Wang PC  Matsunaga A  Jitsukawa T  Edamura K  Ohgawara H  Mochizuki M  Nishimura R  Sasaki N 《The Journal of veterinary medical science / the Japanese Society of Veterinary Science》2003,65(10):1107-1109

Complement-mediated cytotoxicity for porcine islet cells (PICs) was evaluated using sera of six animal species. Then soluble complement receptor type-1 (sCR1) as an anti-complement agent was added to those sera, and the changes in 50% hemolytic unit of complement serum (CH50) and cytotoxic effect of those sera on PICs were examined. All the sera except for that of pig showed cytotoxicity. However, the extent of toxicity was considerably different between species. In the rat and human serum, sCR1 significantly reduced CH50 and cytotoxicity, however in the dog serum, sCR1 had no suppressive effects. These results may suggest that complement contribute to humoral cytotoxicity for PICs as a main factor, and the compatibility of complement with PICs differs between animal species.  相似文献   

Synthesis and insecticidal activity of benzoheterocyclic analogues of N'-benzoyl-N-(tert-butyl)benzohydrazide: Part 3. Modification of N-tert-butylhydrazine moiety     

Sawada Y  Yanai T  Nakagawa H  Tsukamoto Y  Tamagawa Y  Yokoi S  Yanagi M  Toya T  Sugizaki H  Kato Y  Shirakura H  Watanabe T  Yajima Y  Kodama S  Masui A 《Pest management science》2003,59(1):49-57

Nineteen analogues were synthesized by modifying the tert-butylhydrazine moieties of N'-tert-butyl-N'-(3,5-dimethylbenzoyl)-5-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxine-6-carbohydrazide and N'-tert-butyl-N'-(3,5-dimethylbenzoyl)-5-methylchromane-6-carbohydrazide (chromafenozide), and the synthesized analogues were evaluated for their insecticidal activity against Spodoptera litura F. While all of the synthesized analogues had insecticidal activity inferior to those of the lead compounds, several of the analogues nonetheless showed high insecticidal activity. Chromafenozide has shown very high selectivity toward lepidopteran species.  相似文献   

Isolation of myxoviruses from migratory waterfowls in San-in district,western Japan in winters of 1997-2000     

Shengqing Y  Shinya K  Otsuki K  Ito H  Ito T 《The Journal of veterinary medical science / the Japanese Society of Veterinary Science》2002,64(11):1049-1052

Between November 1997 and February 2000, winter migratory waterfowls of several species staying in San-in district, western Japan were surveyed for influenza A virus and paramyxovirus at four stations. A total of 18 influenza A viruses was isolated from 1,404 fecal samples of whistling swans, pintails, mallards, and white-fronted geese. Five different hemagglutinins and eight neuraminidases were identified in the viruses isolated, in 11 different combinations, including H7N8 related to a subtype of a highly pathogenic chicken virus. In 2000, five lentogenic (non-pathogenic) Newcastle disease viruses were also isolated from white-fronted geese. These results suggested that possible precursor viruses for highly pathogenic avian myxoviruses are still brought into Japan by migratory waterfowls. The results also support the contention that continued surveillance of wild waterfowl population should be an integral part of control policies for these serious poultry diseases.  相似文献
