Evaluation of the API 50CH and API ZYM systems for rapid characterization of Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus, causal agent of potato ring rot     

José Luis Palomo  María M. López  Pablo García-Benavides  Encarna Velázquez  Eustoquio Martínez-Molina 《European journal of plant pathology / European Foundation for Plant Pathology》2006,115(4):443-451

API 50CH and API ZYM systems were used to characterize fifty-three strains of Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus from different geographic locations and several reference strains of the same and different species, including other potato pathogens. Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus strains displayed a high level of homogeneity, both in carbohydrate utilization and in enzymatic activity. Using API 50CH and API ZYM it was possible to differentiate C. michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus strains from the remaining taxa analysed in this study, which included representative strains of the other subspecies of C. michiganensis as well as other bacterial pathogens affecting potatoes. Therefore, these systems could be used as an effective method to characterize C. michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus. Such a procedure would constitute an alternative system to the conventional nutritional and physiological identification tests currently included in the official methods employed in the European Union to detect and identify this bacterium. The results obtained with the API systems agreed with the current taxonomic classification of C. michiganensis, clearly separating sepedonicus from the other subspecies belonging to this species.  相似文献   

Dysgenesis of the tubal system in an infertile mare karyotype 63,X:64,XY:65,XXY     

C.R.E. Halnan MA  Vet MB  PhD  FRCVS  C.F.P. Irwin BVSc  MACVSc 《Journal of Equine Veterinary Science》1985,5(6):328-329

A Thoroughbred mare, barren during three years at stud, unresponsive to therapy, and not palpably abnormal anatomically was found to have hypoplasia of the uterine tubes after excision at laparotomy. The cause was an unbalanced genotype. The mosaic karyotype, determined on a blood sample, was indispensible in diagnosis and the case extends the potential for cytogenetic prognostic procedures.  相似文献   

OSTEOCHONDROSIS IN THE LATERAL FEMORAL CONDYLES OF A HORSE     

JONATHAN L. STOWATER  DVM  MS  CARL A. KIRKER-HEAD  MA  VET MB  MRCVS  RICHARD M. JAKOWSKI  DVM  PHD 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》1986,27(4):115-117

Osteochondrosis of the lateral femoral condyles was diagnosed radiographically in an 8-month-old, female Arabian horse, which had been presented with a hindlimb lameness. The diagnosis was confirmed by gross and microscopic pathology. The location of the lesions was considered unusual for osteochondrosis in the horse.  相似文献

Effect of new ethyl and methyl carbamates on Rhipicephalus microplus larvae and adult ticks resistant to conventional ixodicides     

I.E. Pérez-González  M.G. Prado-Ochoa  M.A. Muñoz-Guzmán  V.H. Vázquez-Valadez  A.M. Velázquez-Sánchez  B.L. Avila-Suárez  C. Cuenca-Verde  E. Angeles  F. Alba-Hurtado 《Veterinary parasitology》2014,199(3-4):235-241

The effects of six new synthetic carbamates on fully engorged females of four Rhipicephalus microplus strains (one reference strain susceptible to conventional ixodicides, two strains multiresistant to ixodicides and one tick field isolate) were compared. In addition, the effect of two other new synthetic carbamates was tested on larvae from the same strains. The first six tested carbamates reduced egg laying and inhibited egg hatching in the four studied strains (P < 0.05). Compared with untreated females, the eggs produced by the treated engorged female ticks of all strains had a dark, dry, opaque appearance and were less adherent. The remaining two tested carbamates induced larval mortality in all of the evaluated strains. The three studied R. microplus strains displayed 50% resistance ratios (RR₅₀) of less than 2 when compared to the susceptible reference strain. These results demonstrate that both carbamates with a larvicidal effect and carbamates that inhibit egg laying and embryo development are efficacious against tick strains that are resistant to commercial ixodicides, no cross resistance was observed.  相似文献   

Dendrometric analysis of olive trees for wood biomass quantification in Mediterranean orchards   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Borja Velázquez-Martí  I. López Cortés  D. M. Salazar-Hernández 《Agroforestry Systems》2014,88(5):755-765

This work focuses on the development of dendrometric algorithms to calculate the volume and total biomass contained in olive trees. This laid the foundation for the use of this methodology as a tool to manage resources from orchards, establishing adequate prediction models for assessing other parameters such as income from raw materials from the cultivation, fruit production, CO₂ sinks, and waste materials (residual wood) used for energy or industry. Dendrometry has traditionally been applied to forest trees. However, little research has been conducted on fruit trees because of their heterogeneous structure. This issue was the first step of this research. For this, the form factors were calculated. This relates to the actual volume of the branch with a model volume, calculated as a revolution solid from the base diameter and length. The shape more approximated to 1 was the cylinder model with a mean value of 0.76 and standard deviation (SD) of 0.23. On the other hand, volume equations were obtained for the branches. The distribution of biomass in the tree was analyzed. It is estimated that 40 % of biomass is located in the stem and 60 % in the crown, and most of the crown biomass is concentrated in the first branches (60 %). Afterwards, occupation factors were calculated to relate the wood volume in the crown to its apparent volume, the mean being 0.005 dm³/m³ and SD 0.0025 dm³/m³. Also, equations for predicting the whole wood in the crown were obtained. In this regard, the best results were obtained when the crown diameter was used (R ² = 0.74). These results could be correlated with the production and quality of the fruit, amount of residual biomass coming from pruning, and LIDAR data, which may indicate a simple, quick, and accurate method for predicting biomass.  相似文献   

Recombinant Bone Morphogenetic Proteins: Novel Substances for Enhancing Bone Healing   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

CARL A. KIRKER-HEAD MA  Vel MB  MRCVS  Diplomate ACVS  Diplomate ECVS 《Veterinary surgery : VS》1995,24(5):408-419

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are differentiative factors whose principal function is to induce transformation of undifferentiated mesenchymal cells into chondroblasts and osteoblasts in a dose-dependent manner. Bone morphogenetic proteins have been isolated postnatally in mammals from bone matrix, periosteal cells, mesenchymal cells of marrow stroma, tooth anlagen, and cells of osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma. Distribution in additional embryonic tissues implies a broader organogenic function. Bone morphogenetic proteins are the only differentiative factors able to singularly induce de novo bone formation in vitro and in vivo. Recombinant DNA technology allows their production in large and highly purified quantities. The BMPs' osteoinductive ability has been shown with a variety of carriers including collagens and polymers at heterotopic and orthotopic sites in a wide range of species. They are presently being readied for clinical use as alternatives to bone grafts. Other potential applications include use as pulp capping agents, promoters of implant osteointegration and soft tissue reunion with bone, treatments for nonadaptive bone disease, and implants for use with mitotically expanded skeletal stem cell populations. Errors in the genetic coding of BMPs may manifest as clinical disease entities.  相似文献   

Activities of biotransformation enzymes in pheasant (Phasianus colchicus) and their modulation by in vivo administration of mebendazole and flubendazole     

Savlík M  Polácková L  Szotáková B  Lamka J  Velík J  Skálová L 《Research in veterinary science》2007,83(1):20-26

Basal activities of certain pheasant hepatic and intestinal biotransformation enzymes and modulation of their activities by anthelmintics flubendazole (FLBZ) and mebendazole (MBZ) were investigated in subcellular fractions that were prepared from liver and small intestine of control and FLBZ or MBZ treated birds. Several oxidation, reduction and conjugation enzyme activities were assessed. In the liver, treatment of pheasants by FLBZ or MBZ caused very slight or no changes in monooxygenase activities and conjugation enzymes. More significative changes were detected in small intestine. Metyrapone and daunorubicin reductase activities were increased by both substances in the liver. This is the first evidence that certain benzimidazoles modulate reductases of carbonyl group. With respect to the relatively slight extent of the changes caused by FLBZ or MBZ we can assume that repeated administration of therapeutic doses of both FLBZ and MBZ has probably no serious influence on pheasant biotransformation enzyme system.  相似文献
