Protection des végétaux avec et sans risques     

H. Steiner 《EPPO Bulletin》1971,1(1):36-38

La protection des végétaux dans sa forme classique est comparée à la lutte intégrée sous l'angle de la rentabilité. La lutte doit être fondée sur la densité de population des ravageurs dont les fluctuations sont bien reflétées par un pendule mathématique qui oscille sur une échelle logarithmique. A l'aide de ce modèle il est démontré que l'emploi réduit de produits chimiques assure de meilleures récoltes. En outre, la lutte intégrée est d'un prix de revient moins élevé et elle compotte moins de risques d'échec.  相似文献   

Serum Pancreatic Lipase Immunoreactivity Concentrations in Dogs Treated with Potassium Bromide and/or Phenobarbital     

Steiner JM  Xenoulis PG  Anderson JA  Barr AC  Williams DA 《Veterinary therapeutics : research in applied veterinary medicine》2008,9(1):37-44

Potassium bromide, phenobarbital, or a combination of both is commonly used in the treatment of canine epilepsy. Several cases of clinical pancreatitis have been reported in dogs after treatment with potassium bromide, but the risk of elevated serum canine pancreatic lipase immunoreactivity concentrations in dogs treated with potassium bromide and/or phenobarbital has not previously been evaluated in a large group of dogs. This study suggests an increased risk for elevated serum canine pancreatic lipase immunoreactivity concentrations and possibly pancreatitis in dogs treated with potassium bromide or phenobarbital alone or in combination.  相似文献   

Clinical observations on the use of the muscle relaxant rocuronium bromide in the dog   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Auer U 《Veterinary journal (London, England : 1997)》2007,173(2):422-427

This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of neuromuscular blockade with rocuronium bromide (rocuronium) in eighty dogs anaesthetised for a variety of surgical procedures. Rocuronium 0.3 or 0.6 mg/kg (G03 and G06) was administered intravenously (IV) and neuromuscular function was monitored with an acceleromyograph. Lag time (LT) was >1 min in both groups. Onset time (OT) was 2+/-0.9 and 1.1+/-0.6 min in the groups given 0.3 and 0.6 mg/kg, respectively. There was a significantly longer time of action with 0.6 mg/kg in contrast to 0.3 mg/kg rocuronium. Time of no response (TonR) was 9.1+/-4.9-16.9+/-6.1 min in the groups given 0.3 and 0.6 mg/kg, respectively. The time from the end of injection until 25% recovery of the first twitch from the baseline value (T1(25)) was 13.8+/-5.5 and 22.3+/-6.7 min in the groups given 0.3 and 0.6 mg/kg, respectively. T1(25-75) was similar in both groups. Total recovery to baseline values was achieved in 23.8+/-6.6 and 31.9+/-6.5 min in the groups given 0.3 and 0.6 mg/kg, respectively (P<0.05). Premedication, maintenance agent, body position and stimulation site had no significant influence on the pharmacodynamic parameters in both groups. It was concluded that rocuronium is an effective non-depolarising muscle relaxant in the dog under clinical conditions.  相似文献   

Observations on the muscle relaxant rocuronium bromide in the horse--a dose-response study     

Auer U  Uray C  Mosing M 《Veterinary anaesthesia and analgesia》2007,34(2):75-81

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the onset and duration of neuromuscular blockade of rocuronium bromide and its associated haemodynamic effects at three doses in healthy horses. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective, randomized experimental study. ANIMALS: Seven adult horses aged 3-20 (mean 10.3) years and weighing 466 +/- 44 (mean +/- SD) kg. METHODS: Horses were anaesthetized three times with at least 2 weeks between. They were pre-medicated with 0.6 mg kg(-1) xylazine and 0.01 mg kg(-1) butorphanol i.v.. Anaesthesia was induced with 2.2 mg kg(-1) ketamine and 0.1 mg kg(-1) diazepam i.v.. Following orotracheal intubation anaesthesia was maintained with isoflurane in 100% oxygen. Intermittent positive pressure ventilation was initiated and the horses were ventilated at a respiratory rate (fr) of 4-8 breaths minute(-1). Neuromuscular function was monitored with an acceleromyograph. The peroneal nerve was stimulated with train-of-four (TOF) mode at 2 Hz every 15 seconds. Each horse received, in randomly assigned order, one of the three doses of rocuronium: 0.2 mg kg(-1) (D02), 0.4 mg kg(-1) (D04) or 0.6 mg kg(-1) (D06) i.v.. Lag time, onset time, time of no response, duration of action and the TOF ratio 0.7 and 0.9 were measured. Recovery time (T1(25-75)) was calculated. Vital parameters were recorded at 5-minute intervals on a standard anaesthetic record form. RESULTS: Rocuronium produced a dose-dependent duration of action in isoflurane-anaesthetized horses. 100% block was observed in D04 and D06 but not in D02, in which the maximum decrease of the first twitch of TOF attained was 91.5 +/- 16.5%. Time to T1(25) was 13.1 +/- 5.5 minutes, 38.6 +/- 10.1 minutes and 55 +/- 9.8 minutes in D02, D04 and D06 respectively. There was a significantly shorter time for TOFR 0.9 with 0.2 mg kg(-1) compared with 0.4 and 0.6 mg kg(-1) rocuronium. T1(25-75) in D04 and D6 was not statistically significantly different. Heart rate, systolic, diastolic and mean arterial blood pressure increased slightly during the observation period. CONCLUSION: Rocuronium is an effective nondepolarizing muscle relaxant in horses under isoflurane anaesthesia. It had a dose-dependent onset and duration of action. Rocuronium did not produce significant changes in the measured cardiovascular parameters.  相似文献   

Epidemiology and risk factors of cecal dilatation/dislocation and abomasal displacement in dairy cows]     

R Eicher  L Audigé  U Braun  J Blum  M Meylan  A Steiner 《Schweizer Archiv für Tierheilkunde》1999,141(9):423-429

The aims of the study were to determine the prevalence of cecal dilatation/dislocation (CDD) and abomasal displacement (DA) in Switzerland, to identify risk factors for both diseases, and to compare directly their epidemiologic situation. The epidemiologic study included 158 cases of CDD and 149 cases of DA from the cases referred to both University Clinics of Berne and Zurich. The results showed that DA was associated with nutrition-related risk factors: use of minerals and sodium chloride, inadequate concentrate feeding and beginning of the feeding. Furthermore, breed was significantly associated with DA, but not with CDD. Finally, milk yield and pasture were also significantly included in the models. For CDD, nutrition-related risk factors were also found: pasture in summer, use of corn pellets and corn silage in winter. In the final model, protein concentrate was also included. Although both diseases were found at comparable frequencies, the results of this study indicate marked differences between the epidemiology of occurrence of CDD and DA. Therefore, the hypothesis of a common etiopathogenesis appears unlikely.  相似文献   

Immune Status and Hepatic Antioxidant Capacity of Gilthead Seabream Sparus aurata Juveniles Fed Yeast and Microalga Derived β-glucans

This work aimed to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with β-glucans extracted from yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and microalga (Phaeodactylum tricornutum) on gene expression, oxidative stress biomarkers and plasma immune parameters in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) juveniles. A practical commercial diet was used as the control (CTRL), and three others based on CTRL were further supplemented with different β-glucan extracts. One was derived from S. cerevisiae (diet MG) and two different extracts of 21% and 37% P. tricornutum-derived β-glucans (defined as Phaeo21 and Phaeo37), to give a final 0.06% β-glucan dietary concentration. Quadruplicate groups of 95 gilthead seabream (initial body weight: 4.1 ± 0.1 g) were fed to satiation three times a day for 8 weeks in a pulse-feeding regimen, with experimental diets intercalated with the CTRL dietary treatment every 2 weeks. After 8 weeks of feeding, all groups showed equal growth performance and no changes were found in plasma innate immune status. Nonetheless, fish groups fed β-glucans supplemented diets showed an improved anti-oxidant status compared to those fed CTRL at both sampling points (i.e., 2 and 8 weeks). The intestinal gene expression analysis highlighted the immunomodulatory role of Phaeo37 diet after 8 weeks, inducing an immune tolerance effect in gilthead seabream intestine, and a general down-regulation of immune-related gene expression. In conclusion, the results suggest that the dietary pulse administration of a P. tricornutum 37% enriched-β-glucans extract might be used as a counter-measure in a context of gut inflammation, due to its immune-tolerant and anti-oxidative effects.  相似文献   

Influence of different agricultural management systems on nitrogen leaching: results of lysimeter studies     

Siegfried Knappe  Ulrike Haferkorn  Ralph Meissner 《植物养料与土壤学杂志》2002,165(1):73-77

The objective was to estimate the potential risk of N leaching into the groundwater under various types of agriculture by using lysimeter experiments on the nitrogen(N)‐cycle of various soil types. Results were obtained with 12 weighable, monolithic lysimeters with a surface area of 1 m², a total depth of 3 m, and free drainage. Mean annual N‐leaching losses of 5 to 44 kg ha^—1 and nitrate concentrations of the seepage water (leachate) between 80 and 200 mg l^—1 were measured during the period of intensive agricultural use. On fallow land with a well‐established grass vegetation, some nitrate was removed by the plants. As a result, the nitrate concentrations in the leachate were reduced significantly. Ecological farming measures generally reduced N leaching losses and kept the N‐concentration in the leachate below the German threshold value for drinking water with 50 mg l^—1 nitrate. However, ploughing in of clover or leguminous vegetation and the application of farmyard manure in autumn caused the nitrate concentration in the leachate to rise significantly above the mentioned threshold value.<?show $6#>  相似文献   

Induced resistance: a tool for fungicide resistance management     

Felipe Ortega  Ulrike Steiner  Heinz W. Dehne 《Pest management science》1998,53(2):193-196

Induced resistance to the apple scab fungus Venturia inaequalis was demonstrated in greenhouse tests with 12-day-old seedlings of the apple cultivar Golden Delicious treated with methyl 2,6-dichloro-isonicotinate or 3,5-dichlorosalicylic acid prior to inoculation with the causal fungus. Studies of the dose-response of flusilazole on induced resistant plants revealed synergistic effects between both crop protection principles. Therefore, the use of such resistance-inducing compounds in the field might allow a reduction in the number of fungicide applications, and possibly a reduction in dose, thus resulting in improved efficacy of fungicides. There was also evidence that induced resistance could prove to be a valid strategy for the treatment of pathogen populations with reduced sensitivity to a given fungicide. © 1998 SCI  相似文献   

Automated identification of sugar beet diseases using smartphones          下载免费PDF全文

L. Hallau  M. Neumann  B. Klatt  B. Kleinhenz  T. Klein  C. Kuhn  M. Röhrig  C. Bauckhage  K. Kersting  A.‐K. Mahlein  U. Steiner  E.‐C. Oerke 《Plant pathology》2018,67(2):399-410

Cercospora leaf spot (CLS) poses a high economic risk to sugar beet production due to its potential to greatly reduce yield and quality. For successful integrated management of CLS, rapid and accurate identification of the disease is essential. Diagnosis on the basis of typical visual symptoms is often compromised by the inability to differentiate CLS symptoms from similar symptoms caused by other foliar pathogens of varying significance, or from abiotic stress. An automated detection and classification of CLS and other leaf diseases, enabling a reliable basis for decisions in disease control, would be an alternative to visual as well as molecular and serological methods. This paper presents an algorithm based on a RGB‐image database captured with smartphone cameras for the identification of sugar beet leaf diseases. This tool combines image acquisition and segmentation on the smartphone and advanced image data processing on a server, based on texture features using colour, intensity and gradient values. The diseases are classified using a support vector machine with radial basis function kernel. The algorithm is suitable for binary‐class and multi‐class classification approaches, i.e. the separation between diseased and non‐diseased, and the differentiation among leaf diseases and non‐infected tissue. The classification accuracy for the differentiation of CLS, ramularia leaf spot, phoma leaf spot, beet rust and bacterial blight was 82%, better than that of sugar beet experts classifying diseases from images. However, the technology has not been tested by practitioners. This tool can be adapted to other crops and their diseases and may contribute to improved decision‐making in integrated disease control.  相似文献   

Could the Supply of Boron and Zinc Improve Resistance of Potato to Early Blight?     

Patrícia Pereira Machado  Fábio Steiner  Alan Mario Zuffo  Rafael Alves Machado 《Potato Research》2018,61(2):169-182

The adequate supply of boron (B) and zinc (Zn) can improve the structural integrity and permeability of cell membranes, which is a defence mechanism against fungi infection. A greenhouse experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of the application of B and Zn on plant growth and the incidence and severity of potato early blight, a destructive foliar disease of potato crop caused by Alternaria grandis E.G. Simmons. Potato plants (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Ágata) were grown in 11-l pots filled with sandy soil, unfertilized or fertilized with 5 mg kg^?1 B and 5 mg kg^?1 Zn (either alone or in combination). Potato plants were inoculated with isolates of Alternaria grandis at 40 days after planting. Early blight incidence and severity were evaluated visually 7 days after inoculation with A. grandis isolates. Disease incidence ranged from 16 to 41% infected leaves, and was significantly highest in the treatment with the application of B, followed by the control, and lowest with application of Zn and B + Zn. Early blight severity ranged from 2.5 to 25%, and was significantly higher in the unfertilized treatment than in those fertilized with Zn either alone or in combination with B. These findings suggest that Zn plays a critical role in potato tolerance to early blight and should be considered as a preventive measure in the disease management plan, since application of zinc reduced the incidence and severity of potato early blight. However, the physiological basis of this remains unknown.  相似文献
