Microorganisms associated with pneumonia in slaughter weight swine.

The lungs of 334 pigs were obtained from two slaughter plants in Minnesota and examined in detail. Macroscopic and microscopic evaluation, direct fluorescence for Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and bacterial culture were done on all of them and a subsample of 50 were selected for virus culture. Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, Pasteurella multocida and Haemophilus spp. were detected in 24.0%, 34.1% and 27.0% of the lungs, commonly in conjunction with each other. One isolate of Haemophilus pleuropneumoniae serotype 2 was detected and this represents the first report of its presence in the United States. No virus was detected in any of the lungs. Lungs with both M. hyopneumoniae and Pasteurella multocida had the greatest amount of macroscopic pneumonia (9.8% of the lung). Lungs with M. hyopneumoniae or P. multocida alone had 4.9% and 5.2% of the lung involved with pneumonia respectively. Lungs with Haemophilus sp. Taxon "minor group" had 3.8% of the lung involved which was not significantly different from lungs with none of these organisms being detected (1.6%). There was a positive correlation between the extent of M. hyopneumoniae infection, as scored by FAT and the amount of macroscopic pneumonia present (r = 0.46; P less than 0.001). Likewise, there was a positive correlation between the estimated concentration of P. multocida present, as scored by the relative number of colonies on blood agar and the amount of macroscopic pneumonia present (r = 0.60; P less than 0.001). Microscopically, the amount of lymphoreticular proliferation, polymorphonuclear cells and alveolar macrophages were evaluated.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

山西省蚜虫消长与玉米矮花叶病流行关系

玉米矮花叶病是非持久性病毒——MDMV 引起。病毒介体是蚜虫,在山西省主要是麦二叉蚜(Schizaphis graminum Rond)、禾缢管蚜(Rhopalo-siphum padi Linnaeus)、玉米蚜(Rhopalosiphum maidis Fitch)、桃蚜(Myzus persicae Sulzer)和棉蚜(Aphis gossypii Glover),麦无网长管蚜[Acythosiphum dirhodum(Walker)]的传毒能力未定。实验表明,传毒蚜虫饲毒最适时间5～30分钟,接毒最适时间30～60分钟,持毒期限6～7小时,有效传毒蚜数3～5头。气温20℃麦二叉蚜的传毒效能最高,是春播玉米的主要传毒蚜虫。传毒蚜的高峰期后16～30天是发病高峰,以玉米拔节至孕穗间发病最快,抽雄后渐缓。病害的发生流行取决于毒源量、传毒蚜的虫口密度及其自然带毒率的提高,这过程进展的快慢是受时间和空间的影响。     

海南油棕果腐病的病原鉴定及发病条件的研究

三年来作者对于幼龄結果油棕的果穗和果实腐烂的症状、分布、蔓延为害,其发生条件和栽培管理的关系进行了詳細的調查和观察,并进行了病原分离、培养、田间人工接种和試探性化学保护等試驗。同时对果实离层組織的形成进行了切片检查。 結果指出海南十二个地区的幼龄结实棕园普遍出現的花、果、穗腐与环境条件和栽培管理有密切关系。果腐是果实离体后从蒂部組織开始的。从腐果組織中經常可以分离到細菌、炭疽菌和鐮刀菌。多次田間接种証明这些菌对健康果实和果穗均无致病能力。大田喷药无效。看来,油棕果腐病是由于环境坏、管理差的条件下,未成熟或接近成熟的果实产生离层而与果柄分离,再由外界杂菌腐食脫果而致腐烂。可見,本病是屬于非侵染性的生理病害。     

南昌近郊辣椒两种炭疽病菌的初步研究

1962年秋,作者等在南昌近郊,从感病长果种辣椒的果上,分离到两种炭疽病菌。一种分生孢子为椭圓形(以下簡称G菌),病斑圆形或椭圓形,凹陷,灰綠色或黄色,以后变棕色。另一种分生孢子为鐮刀形(以下簡称V菌),病斑不定形,暗棕色至黑色。这两种病菌,在馬鈴薯、洋菜培养基上都能形成孢子,且对辣椒都有寄生性。     

小麦赤霉病流行预测初步研究

对1952—1963年病害流行程度与穗期气象要素之間的相关性测定結果表明,各年发病程度与4月下旬至5月下旬(小麦抽穗至糊熟)特別是5月上中旬(小麦开花至灌浆初期)的降雨日数、相对湿度呈明显的正相关;与同期的降雨量、平均气温相关不显著。稻桩上产生的子囊壳是本地区初侵染的主要来源,初侵染的数量和流行程度有关,其数量积累决定于雨湿条件。小麦开花灌浆初期最易感病,此时期降雨日数是病害流行的决定性因素。根据十二年資料分析結果,病害流行可以分为六种类型:早期发生型;中期发生型;后期发生型;少雨限制型;低温限制型;生育提早限制型。根据1957—1963年預测圃小麦开花后二旬內的降雨日数与发病率的相关,以发病率为应变量求出迴归方程式:Y=6.61 X—48.35,为中期預測提出雨日指标。     

牛头天社蛾初步观察

根据六六六泥团塞根有治螟效果的报导[黄山等,1956],为改进施药方法,我所于1957年进行土壤施药的盆栽药效測定,效果良好;1958年,田間防治試驗因处理时間太早(4月28日施药),效果不显;1960及1961年又进行田間試驗,因当年螟害輕微,防治效果也不够显著。据文献报导,六六六土壤施药,每亩用丙体六六六180克(折合数),对第一代二化螟防治效果良好,残效期达20—30天,并指出药剂系通过稻根内吸和沿叶鞘間上升的作用,杀死蛀入的蚁螟。昆明地区一般早栽田,栽秧后15—25天,正是螟卵盛孵期。1963年在昆明市郊区早栽田内,进行六六六土壤施药試驗,观察防治第一代三化螟的效果。試驗方法     

油茶炭疽病的综合防治

1962—1963年在四川省泸县地区进行油茶炭疽病的防治試驗。結果表明:采用营林措施(修除树上病部)和化学保护(噴射1∶1∶150波尔多液)的综合防治方法,病株防治效果可达89.77％,防止果病率达70.02％。严重病区,可在冬(12月)、春(2月)修除病部各一次(或可集中在2月进行),发病期間(4—8月)噴射波尔多液8—10次(条件不許可山区,也至少5次)。噴药宜連續性。上述措施,应进行2—3年。     

防治地老虎杀卵兼治初龄幼虫的试验

两年来室内和試驗場試驗証实:有机磷杀虫剂如1605及敌百虫等能兼治小地老虎和黄地老虎的卵和初龄幼虫;有机氯杀虫剂如DDT及666等对卵几乎无效,但对初龄幼虫效果頁好。两类药剂混用杀卵效果提高。大田試驗用50％敌百虫乳剂1份、25％DDT乳剂1份、水600份,在卵孵化率为28.6—95.0％时亩施混合液50公斤,防治效果良好;防治适期比药杀初龄幼虫可提早十天左右,大大緩和了时間紧张的矛盾。
