The persistence of Sphaeropsis sapinea, Leptographium serpens and Heterobasidion annosum s.s. in artificially inoculated pine branch pieces (S. sapinea and L. serpens) and wood blocks (L. serpens and H. annosum s.s.) was investigated in order to discuss the alternative of leaving coarse woody debris in stands of Italian stone pine (Pinus pinea). Also, natural colonization by S. sapinea of pine cones of different ages was assessed. Methods used for inoculating branch pieces and wood blocks were highly effective for all fungi. Type of a forest stand in which branch pieces and wood blocks have been incubated did not affect the persistence of the pathogens in the inoculated samples. For branch pieces, the success of re-isolation of L. serpens dropped as the sample incubation time increased, while S. sapinea was always successfully (100%) re-isolated (even 12 months after the inoculation). L. serpens and H. annosum s.s. were re-isolated from most of the buried wood blocks (from more than 95% samples) up to 3 months following the inoculation. Of the observed P. pinea cones (in most cases, more than 2 years old), 74% were naturally infected byS. sapinea. All three investigated pathogens were able to survive in dead plant tissues for long periods of time (at least for several (3–12) months). The persistence of these pine-pathogenic species in dead plant material questions the feasibility of leaving coarse woody debris in managed Italian stone pine forests meant for landscape conservation and leisure activities. 相似文献

This paper reports the optimization of an electrochemical bioassay for the determination of chlorpyrifos-methyl and its application to the analysis of grape and vine leaf samples treated with that pesticide. The analytical method was based on electrochemical determination of the extent of the inhibition exerted by the pesticide on acetylcholinesterase using the substrate acetylthiocholine. Two similar calibration plots were obtained, in the range of 1-300 ng/mL, respectively, for chlorpyrifos-methyl in pure standard form and in the commercial preparation Reldan, with comparable coefficients of variation (CV) in the range of 10% < CV < 20%. After an insecticide treatment, samples were analyzed to evaluate its persistence both in grapes and in vine leaves. Samples were evaluated using different extraction procedures: one based on solvent extraction of pesticide residue from grapes and the other based on aqueous extraction from vine leaves using phosphate buffer. The grape solvent extracts were analyzed using both gas chromatography and electrochemical bioassay, whereas the vine leaf buffer extracts were analyzed using the electrochemical bioassay. Quantitative analysis of chlorpyrifos-methyl determined in the two samples, with the electrochemical bioassay, showed a comparable decrease profile over the experimental period. 相似文献

Serum amyloid A (SAA), the major equine acute-phase protein, is often measured after the race to investigate whether poor performances could depend on inflammation. The aim of this study was to assess whether there is an increase in concentration of SAA in serum samples collected from 12 clinically healthy Standardbred horses 1 hour after a standard race. Exercise induced an increase in red blood cells, hematocrit, and total proteins but not in SAA. However, a two- to threefold increase of SAA concentration as compared with prerace values was found in three horses. In conclusion, the concentration of SAA in most of the samples collected 1 hour after the race remains unchanged as compared with prerace samples. However, individual variability in response to exercise exists. The evaluation of SAA immediately after the race is not clinically useful. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to quantify and compare interferon-γ (IFN-γ) concentrations in the serum of clinically normal cats infected with feline coronavirus (FCoV) with its concentration in the sera and effusions of cats with feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), a disease associated with infection with a mutated form of FCoV.Clinically normal FCoV-infected cats living in catteries with a high prevalence of FIP had the highest serum IFN-γ concentrations. The serum concentration of IFN-γ was not significantly different in cats with FIP compared with clinically normal FCoV-infected animals living in catteries with a low prevalence of the disease. Moreover, the concentration of IFN-γ was significantly higher in the effusions than in the serum of cats with FIP, probably due to IFN-γ production within lesions. These findings support the hypothesis that there is a strong, ‘systemic’ cell mediated immune response in clinically normal, FCoV-infected cats and that a similar process, albeit at a tissue level, is involved in the pathogenesis of FIP. 相似文献

In order to investigate the genotypes of Giardia duodenalis from domestic and farm animals in Italy, 21 Giardia isolates, 17 from dogs, 1 from cat and 3 from dairy calves, were genetically characterised by SSU-rRNA gene sequencing. Among dogs, 76.5% of isolates showed the dog-specific genotypes (Assemblages C, D and C/D mixed Assemblage) and 23.5% exhibit potential zoonotic genotypes (Assemblage A and A/C mixed Assemblages). The cat isolate belonged to assemblage A, whereas the sequences among the isolates from calves were found to correspond to hoofed-livestock genotype, namely Assemblage E. These findings suggest that infection of humans by zoonotic genotypes from domestic animals could be of low epidemiological significance, although possible. The present study represents the first contribute to the knowledge of G. duodenalis genotypes in domestic and farm animals from Italy. 相似文献

Overlapping external morphometric characters easily confound the flatfishes Solea aegyptiaca and Solea solea (Soleidae) in areas of the Mediterranean Sea where both species live in sympatry. This leads to uncertainties in the fisheries and marketing of the species, in addition to misinterpretations in biogeography and conservation studies. This paper describes a simple restriction fragment length-based diagnostic test that differentiates S. solea from S. aegyptiaca, as well as from other species of the Soleidae family. Furthermore, the two species living in sympatry in the Gulf of Kavala (North Aegean Sea, Greece) present significant qualitative differences in muscle fatty acid composition, a property that can also be used to distinguish the two cryptic species. 相似文献

Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) is a gram-negative bacterial plant pathogen that can infect over 500 plant species. While it is endemic in America, X. fastidiosa subsp. pauca was reported for the first time in Europe in 2013 on olive trees in southern Italy. The availability of fast, sensitive, and reliable diagnostic tools is indispensable for managing current and future outbreaks of Xf. In this paper, we use the OXford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) MinION platform for detecting and identifying Xf at species, subspecies, and sequence type (ST) level. Two workflows were developed: the first one provided a “shotgun” strategy, that is, exploring the possibility of detecting Xf within DNA extracted from plant samples. This allowed detection of Xf by direct DNA sequencing and identifying the subspecies only in samples with high bacterial levels. Nanopore amplicon sequencing was pursued as a second workflow. This consists of PCR amplification of a set of seven multilocus sequence typing (MLST) fragments, officially adopted for identifying Xf at type strain level, followed by Nanopore-sequencing of the amplicons and an ad hoc pipeline to generate MLST consensus calls. This combined approach, which takes only a few hours, allowed the detection and identification of Xf at ST level in plant material with low bacterial infection. 相似文献
