A root rot of cabbage is reported from South Africa. The causal pathogen was identified as Phytophthora drechsleri , based on morphological characters and electrophoretic patterns of soluble proteins.  相似文献   

Cross reactions of an antiserum to plum pox potyvirus1     

D. JAMES  D. A. THOMPSON  S. E. GODKIN 《EPPO Bulletin》1994,24(3):605-614

In the early spring of 1992, plum pox-like viruses (PPLVs) were detected by standard ELISA in some Prunus species. The isolates reacted positively with plum pox potyvirus (PPV) antisera in immunosorbent electron microscopy and Western blot analysis. In Western blot analyses, bands associated with the coat protein subunits of the PPLVs were 48–56 kDa, whereas bands associated with the coat protein subunits of known PPV isolates were 32–37 kDa in size. Also, the PPLVs differed from known PPV isolates in their symptoms on woody and herbaceous indicators, and in their herbaceous host range. None of these PPLVs appears to be an isolate of PPV.  相似文献   

Artificial Insemination of Gilts with 1.5 Billion Sperms Stored in Different Periods Associated with Different Pre-ovulatory Intervals     

PE Bennemann  GN Diehl  E Milbradt  RM Vidor  HCC Fries  I Wentz  ML Bernardi  FP Bortolozzo 《Reproduction in domestic animals》2005,40(6):507-510

This study evaluated the reproductive performance of gilts inseminated at three intervals before ovulation (0-12, 13-23, 24-30 h) with sperm doses (SD) stored for 0-48 and 96-120 h. A total of 218 PIC Camborough 22 gilts were inseminated once with SD of 1.5 x 10(9) sperms. Pregnant gilts (n = 166) were slaughtered 30.8 +/- 3.7 days after artificial insemination. The number of corpora lutea (CL) and total embryos (TE) was counted. Pregnancy rates (PR) were analysed by chi-square test. TE and embryonic survival (ES), obtained as the ratio between viable embryos and CL, were analysed by GLM procedure (SAS) and mean values were compared by Tukey's test. Pregnancy rate was similar among artificial insemination-ovulation (AIOV) intervals when semen was stored for 0-48 h. However, the lowest PR was observed in the 24-30 h AIOV interval with storage time (ST) of 96-120 h (p < 0.05). There was a significant effect of the interaction between ST and AIOV (p < 0.05) on TE and ES variables. Total embryos and ES did not differ (p > 0.05) among AIOV intervals in ST of 0-48 h. However, gilts inseminated at 24-30 h AIOV interval with ST of 96-120 h showed a reduction of 6.7 embryos (p < 0.05) compared with gilts in the same interval inseminated with semen stored for 0-48 h. ES for the 24-30 h AIOV interval and ST of 96-120 h was lower than that observed in the other groups (p < 0.05).  相似文献

Holding Power of Different Pin Designs and Pin Insertion Methods in Avian Cortical Bone     

LAUREL A. DEGERNES DVM  Diplomate ABVP    SIMON C. ROE BVSc  PhD  Diplomate ACVS  C. FRANK ABRAMS Jr.  PhD  PE 《Veterinary surgery : VS》1998,27(4):301-306

Objective —To measure pullout strength of four pin types in avian humeri and tibiotarsi bones and to compare slow-speed power and hand insertion methods.
Study Design —Axial pin extraction was measured in vitro in avian bones.
Animal Population —Four cadaver red-tailed hawks and 12 live red-tailed hawks.
Methods —The pullout strength of four fixator pin designs was measured: smooth, negative profile threaded pins engaging one or two cortices and positive profile threaded pins. Part 1: Pins were placed in humeri and tibiotarsi after soft tissue removal. Part 2: Pins were placed in tibiotarsi in anesthetized hawks using slow-speed power or hand insertion.
Results —All threaded pins, regardless of pin design, had greater pullout strength than smooth pins in all parts of the study ( P < .0001). The cortices of tibiotarsi were thicker than the cortices of humeri ( P < .0001). There were few differences in pin pullout strengths between threaded pin types within or between bone groups. There were no differences between the pullout strength of pins placed by slow-speed power or by hand.
Conclusions —There is little advantage of one threaded pin type over another in avian humeri and tibiotarsi using currently available pin designs. There were few differences in pin pullout strengths between humeri and tibiotarsi bones. It is possible that the ease of hand insertion in thin cortices minimizes the potential for wobbling and therefore minimizes the difference between slow-speed drill and hand insertion methods.
Clinical Relevance —Threaded pins have superior bone holding strength in avian cortices and may be beneficial for use with external fixation devices in birds.  相似文献   

Variations in composition of pasture herbage     

J. K. THOMPSON  R. W. WARREN 《Grass and Forage Science》1979,34(2):83-88

Changes in the chemical composition of pasture samples from five dairy farms were observed over a 2-year period. Many of the minerals were at their lowest concentration in samples taken in the spring and early summer. At these times the concentrations of P, Mg and Na were often less than sufficient to meet the calculated requirements of the dairy cow fed on pasture alone. Cu and Co concentrations in the herbage were also generally low relative to the needs of the dairy cow.  相似文献   

Efficacy of avermectin B₁ given orally against equine intestinal strongyles and Onchocera microfilaria     

TD MOGG †  CC POLLITT  JP WILLMORE  H. THOMPSON ‡ 《Australian veterinary journal》1990,67(11):399-401

Three groups of horses and ponies (N = 13, 13 and 12) were treated with ivermectin paste (0.2 mg/kg p.o.), avermectin B1 solution (0.2 mg/kg p.o.), or fenbendazole suspension (10 mg/kg via nasogastric tube). The avermectin B1 was a 1% solution in a propylene glycolglycerol formal base. Faecal strongyle egg counts were performed before, and 14, 28, 42, 56 and 70 d, after treatment. Full-thickness skin biopsies from the neck, pectoral and umbilical regions were examined for Onchocera microfilaria before treatment, and again 14 and 70 d later. Ivermectin therapy produced a significant (P less than 0.01) decrease in mean strongyle egg counts 14, 28, 42 and 56 d after treatment. Avermectin B1 therapy resulted in significant (P less than 0.01) decreases in mean strongyle egg counts 14, 28 and 42 d after treatment. All horses given ivermectin or avermectin B1 had zero strongyle egg counts 14 and 28 d after treatment. Fenbendazole failed to significantly decrease strongyle egg counts. Both ivermectin and avermectin B1 resulted in zero microfilaria counts in all horses 14 d after treatment. On day 70 the percentage decrease in microfilaria counts were 100% and 99.6% respectively. Fenbendazole failed to significantly decrease microfilaria counts. The oral administration of this formulation of avermectin B1 appeared to be highly efficacious against intestinal strongyles and Onchocera microfilaria. The duration of anti-strongyle activity was, however, significantly (P less than 0.01) shorter than that of ivermectin paste.  相似文献
