Observation on the remarkable stability of transmissible mink encephalopathy virus.     

D Burger  J R Gorham 《Research in veterinary science》1977,22(1):131-132

Transmissible mink encephalopathy (TME) virus retained biological activity after prolonged storage in formalin (about three and a half years) and in paraffin tissue blocks used for histologic preparations (about six and a half years). Thus, TME tissues in formalin and in paraffin blocks should be handled as contaminated materials.  相似文献   

Variation in the response of melon genotypes to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. melonis race 1 determined by inoculation tests and molecular markers     

Y. Burger  N. Katzir  G. Tzuri  V. Portnoy  U. Saar  S. Shriber  R. Perl-Treves  R. Cohen † 《Plant pathology》2003,52(2):204-211

Screening of genotypes of melon ( Cucumis melo ) for resistance to wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. melonis is often characterized by wide variability in their responses to inoculation, even under carefully controlled conditions. The variability at the seedling stage of 17 genotypes susceptible to race 1 was examined in growth-chamber experiments. Disease incidence varied from 0 to 100% in a genotype-dependent manner. Using four combinations of light (60 and 90  µ E m⁻² s⁻¹) and temperatures of (27 and 31°C), only light intensity showed a statistically significant effect. Marker-assisted selection for fusarium resistance breeding using cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) and sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers were compared using a single set of genotypes that included 24 melon accessions and breeding lines whose genotype regarding the Fom-2 gene was well characterized. The practical value of the markers for discriminating a range of genotypes and clarifying the scoring of phenotypes was also tested using a segregating breeding population which showed codominant SCAR markers to be useful in marker-assisted selection.  相似文献

The newest leafminer pest in Israel,Liriomyza huidobrensis     

Phyllis G. Weintraub  A. R. Horowitz 《Phytoparasitica》1995,23(2):177-184

The pea leafminer,Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard), recently introduced into Israel, has proven to be extremely proliferous and difficult to control. It is a much more serious pest of vegetable and flower crops than the previously introducedLiriomyza trifolii (Burgess). Photosynthesis is reduced and cosmetic damage is incurred when adult flies stipple plant leaves with feeding punctures and larvae mine the leaves. This paper will review briefly the history, biology and potential control measures of the pea leafminer.  相似文献   

Electroencephalography and space-occupying lesions in small animals     

Phyllis G. Croft 《The Journal of small animal practice》1972,13(4):175-184

EEGs have been recorded from 207 dogs and cats with presumed intra-cranial space-occupying lesions; twenty-seven cases were confirmed postmortem. The clinical presenting signs of the series are considered, and the abnormal characters of the EEGs are analysed and discussed. The place of the EEG in differential diagnosis and its possible future value in association with brain surgery are discussed.
Résumé. On a enregistré des électroencéphalogrammes de 207 chiens et chats suspects de lésions intracraniennes expansives; ce diagnostic a pu être confirmé par l'examen nécropsique. On décrit les manifestations cliniques majeures dans cette série et on considère les anomalies de l'E.E.G., dont on analyse les particularités et dont on envisage l'importance diagnostique sous Tangle de la chirurgie du cerveau.
Zusammenfassung. Es wurden EEGs von 207 Katzen und Hunden mit vermuteten raumbean-spruchenden Läsionen im Schädelraum aufgenommen; 27 Fälle da von wurden durch Autopsie bestätigt. Die klinischen Erscheinungsbilder der Serie werden betrachtet und der anomale Gharakter der EEGs wird analysiert und besprochen. Der Platz des EEG in der Differentialdioagnose und sein möglicher künftiger Wert in Zusammenhang mit der Gehirnchirurgie wird besprochen.  相似文献

Studies on Macaca mulatta infected with Rocky Mountain spotted fever.     

L S Sammons  R H Kenyon  G T Burger  W R Beisel  C E Pedersen 《American journal of veterinary research》1977,38(6):907-910

Acid-base alterations and changes in other selected serum constituents (free fatty acids, triglycerides, cholesterol, copper, cortisol, alpha1-acid glycoprotein, haptoglobin, and albumin) were measured during a study of Rocky Mountain spotted fever in 16 male rhesus macaques. Blood samples were taken from nonanesthetized macaques conditioned to repeated handling. Arterial pH increased and PCO2 decreased during the febrile period. Free fatty acids, triglycerides, copper, cortisol, alpha1-acid glycoprotein, and haptoglobin increased, whereas albumin decreased during the disease. Significant changes were not observed in arterial PO2. Cholesterol remained unchanged. The increase in arterial pH and decrease in PaCO2 indicated that respiratory alkalosis was present in macaques acutely affected with Rocky Mountain spotted fever.  相似文献   

Economic Impact of Double‐Crested Cormorant,Phalacrocorax auritus,Depredation on Channel Catfish,Ictalurus punctatus,Aquaculture in Mississippi,USA     

Brian S. Dorr  Loren W. Burger  Scott C. Barras  Kristina Casscles Godwin 《Journal of the World Aquaculture Society》2012,43(4):502-513

The Yazoo River Basin of Mississippi, USA, supports the largest concentration of hectares devoted to channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, aquaculture production in North America. The Yazoo Basin also supports large numbers of resident, wintering and migrating fish‐eating birds, with the Double‐crested Cormorant, Phalacrocorax auritus, implicated as the most serious depredating species. We used data from aerial surveys of numbers and distribution of cormorants in the Yazoo Basin and on commercial catfish ponds during winters (November–April) 2000–2001 and 2003–2004 to refine estimates of regional economic losses due to cormorant depredation. In both periods, the greatest monthly estimates of cormorant foraging occurred from 1 January to 31 March. Losses in terms of biomass, number, and dollar value were greater for foodfish ponds than fingerling ponds. Monthly weighted estimates of catfish consumed were 1775.3 and 1346.6 m.t. over winters 2000–2001 and 2003–2004, respectively. Total estimated losses for foodfish and fingerling ponds in 2000–2001 were $11.56 and $0.48 million, respectively, and in 2003–2004 were $5.22 and $0.40 million, respectively. Maximum dollar loss occurred during March in 2000–2001 and during February in 2003–2004. In this study, the volatility in variable production costs and nominal sales price, and distribution of cormorants on pond types and regionally were key factors in resulting economic loss estimates.  相似文献   

Metal Concentrations in Organs of the Clam Amiantis umbonella and Their Use in Monitoring Metal Contamination of Coastal Sediments     

Qaiser Tarique  Joanna Burger  John R. Reinfelder 《Water, air, and soil pollution》2012,223(5):2125-2136

The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of metal concentrations in clam organs to monitor metal contamination in coastal sediments. The concentrations of Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, V, and Zn were measured in the kidneys, gonads, mantles, gills, digestive gland, and hearts of the infaunal clam Amiantis umbonella collected from a contaminated site near desalination and power plant discharges, and a reference site in Kuwait Bay. Metal concentrations in sediment and sediment pore water were also measured at the collection sites of individual clams at the contaminated site. The concentrations of all metals in all organs (except Zn in the digestive gland) were significantly higher in clams from the contaminated site than from the reference site. Metal concentrations in several organs in A. umbonella from the contaminated site were correlated with those in the sediments and pore waters to which they were exposed. However, fresh weights of gonads, gills, and mantles were significantly lower in clams from the contaminated site compared to the reference site, indicating that the observed elevated concentrations of metals in the organs of clams from the contaminated site largely reflect lower organ weights, rather than higher metal loads, and that these organs in A. umbonella and perhaps other clams are not appropriate for use as biomonitors of metal contamination. Metal concentrations in clam kidneys showed a wide dynamic range with respect to environmental contamination and kidney weight was not variable. Therefore, metal concentrations in clam kidneys provide a reliable biomonitor of contaminant metals in coastal marine sediments.  相似文献
