Mexico is considered to be one of the centers of origin of grain amaranth species. Recently, plants with abnormal anatomical
features were observed in experimental fields established in Central Mexico. The most noticeable symptoms, which consisted
of excessive stem and bud proliferation, mosaics and unusual coloration, suggested that they might be phytoplasma-induced
disorders. Thus, different accessions of grain amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus and A. cruentus) plants were subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis specifically designed to detect these pathogens. Two universal
phytoplasma-specific primer pairs were tested in a nested PCR assay, with primer pair P1/tint (followed by primer pair R16F2/R16R2). Further DNA sequencing analysis of the resulting amplicons indicated that these
phytoplasmas may be related to others already affecting important agricultural crops in Mexico, such as soybean. Data are
presented that disclose the etiology of these syndromes by the use of molecular techniques. To the best of our knowledge,
this finding constitutes the first report of a phytoplasma-related disease in grain amaranth. 相似文献

Limited information is available on suitable height of transport crates for turkeys. We compared behaviors and physiological indicators of four groups of 10 female turkeys each confined in either conventional (38.5 cm height) or experimental (77 cm height) crates during six commercial pre‐slaughter transportations for 86 km (76 ± 4 min) along two tracts with one‐lane streets, crossroads, bends, roundabouts (S1 and S2) and a highway tract (H) between S1 and S2. Only 36% of birds in the higher crates maintained a standing position. In conventional versus experimental crates, the frequency of rising attempts was five/bird/hour versus less than one/bird/hour, while wing flapping was seven/bird/hour versus 20/bird/hour, and balance loss was one versus four/bird/hour. The behaviors of both groups differed significantly according to the route tract, with a lower frequency of stress‐related behaviors at H. No scratches, fractures or hematomas were detected in any birds after transportation. Crate height had no significant effect on hemato‐biochemical markers. These results suggest that crates enabling a standing position may increase potentially dangerous behaviors. Moreover, busy and curvy routes should be avoided, as they may contribute to increasing the frequency of stress‐related behaviors. 相似文献

A retrospective review of records of 205 cats with histologically confirmed disease of the spinal cord was performed to identify the prevalence of disease in this nonrandomly selected population of cats. Clinical records were reviewed, and age, duration of neurologic illness, and clinical and histopathologic findings in cats with spinal cord disease were abstracted. Disease processes were classified into 7 categories and 23 groups. The most common diseases affecting the spinal cord of cats were feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), lymphosarcoma (LSA), and neoplasia of the vertebral column secondarily affecting the spinal cord. Information on age, onset and duration of clinical signs, and lesion localization at the postmortem examination in cats belonging to the 7 categories of disease were analyzed to create a practical list of differential diagnoses. Cats were also subcategorized into 3 groups based on their age at death. FIP was the most common disease of cats younger than 2 years of age. LSA and vertebral column neoplasia were the most common diseases affecting cats between 2 and 8 years of age. Vertebral column neoplasia was the most common disease affecting cats older than 8 years of age. Results of this histopathologic study showed that FIP and LSA were the most common disease processes affecting the spinal cord of cats. However, at least 21 other groups of diseases and their relative prevalence were identified. 相似文献

Salmonellosis due to Salmonella enterica serovar Abortusovis (S. Abortusovis) is mainly characterized by abortion in sheep. Little is known about the immune response, which develops in the host as a result of infection. We evaluated the immune response of pregnant ewes vaccinated and successively exposed to full virulent S. Abortusovis. We found that vaccine constituted by inactivated S. Abortusovis induced both humoral and cellular-mediated immune response and that it provided protection against a challenge infection due to a fully virulent S. Abortusovis. Furthermore, we found an association between the lack of capability to produce IFN-gamma and abortion. This evidence suggests that protection against abortion can be associated to an IFN-gamma mediated mechanism. Our findings represent an interesting insight to better understand the interplay between host and S. Abortusovis and the effector mechanisms underpinning immune-based protection. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of tumescent local anesthesia (TLA) in cats undergoing unilateral mastectomy.Study designProspective clinical trial.AnimalsA total of 12 ovariohysterectomized female cats.MethodsAll animals were premedicated with pethidine (4 mg kg–1) intramuscularly (IM), followed by induction of anesthesia with propofol (5 mg kg–1) intravenously and maintenance with isoflurane in oxygen. A refrigerated TLA solution (15 mL kg–1, 8 °C) was injected using a Klein cannula. The solution was composed of 0.5 mL of epinephrine (1 mg mL–1) and 40 mL of 2% lidocaine added to 210 mL lactated Ringer’s solution (final lidocaine concentration 0.32%). Heart and respiratory rates, systolic arterial blood pressure, temperature and oxygen saturation were measured during anesthesia. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein for measurement of plasma lidocaine concentration using high performance liquid chromatography. Postoperative pain scores were evaluated hourly for 6 hours. Analgesic rescue was performed with tramadol (2 mg kg–1) IM and meloxicam (0.15 mg kg–1) subcutaneously.ResultsPlasma lidocaine concentration peaked at 90 minutes after injection of TLA, but no concentration considered toxic for the species was measured. The median postoperative analgesia time was 6 hours after injection of TLA.ConclusionsThis study found that TLA prevented sympathetic response to noxious stimuli during anesthesia and provided satisfactory postoperative analgesia in cats submitted to total unilateral mastectomy, with no apparent signs of toxicity.Clinical relevanceTLA can prevent sympathetic stimulation resulting from noxious stimuli during anesthesia, promoting good intraoperative conditions, proving to be a viable addition to analgesia in cats submitted to a total unilateral mastectomy. 相似文献

Microcosm experiments on the behaviour of Se, Cr and Co were carried out with mangrove sediments from Sepetiba Bay, Brazil. Three 8-cm length sediment cores were covered with tidal water spiked with 75Se, 51Cr and 60Co to evaluate its behaviour within the sediments. Two cores retained almost all activities (99?C100?%) within the uppermost centimetre layer, while the third core presented a deeper penetration of all radiotracers, displaying a second activity peak at the 3?C4-cm depth interval, which evidenced benthic fauna bioturbation influence. This influence extended the diffusion into depths in which mangrove rhizosphere can retain the elements, suggesting increased retention efficiency. This mechanism of retention enhancement was proposed in addition to previous conceptual models describing trace elements behaviour in mangrove sediments. Increased bioturbation and rhizosphere development will probably increase this effect, while mangrove plant cover losses may promote a less efficient retention of elements recently diffused from tidal water. 相似文献

Spectroscopic techniques including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) can identify particular chemical groups of humic acids (HA) from “Terra Preta de Índios” (TPI) or Amazonian dark earth, the highly fertile anthropogenic soil found in the Amazonian region. The high fertility and resilience of these soils cannot be explained by their chemically inert pyrogenic C content alone, but the natural aging of this C generates reactive carboxyl functional groups attached directly to the recalcitrant polycondensed aromatic backbone. Through spectroscopic techniques used in this work, the HA fraction (the alkaline-soluble organic matter that precipitates at low pH) of the TPI soil was compared with humic and fulvic acids, obtained by oxidizing activated charcoal with sodium hypochlorite. The yields recovery of HA-like substances was 12 and 28 wt% by using 10 and 20 cmol L?1 of oxidizing agent, respectively. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray, and solid-state 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (13C NMR) spectroscopies were used to evaluate the elements and structures present in all samples. XPS C 1 s spectra of HA extracted from TPI soil and from prepared HA showed aromatic structures (C?=?C and π–π* shake-up satellite peak) bounded to carboxyl groups (COOH). The morphology and polycondensation level of aromatic C were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The similarities of the spectra indicated that the used method was efficient to obtain an organic amendment similar to TPI soil organic matter. 相似文献

T cells that accompany allogeneic hematopoietic grafts for treating leukemia enhance engraftment and mediate the graft-versus-leukemia effect. Unfortunately, alloreactive T cells also cause graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). T cell depletion prevents GVHD but increases the risk of graft rejection and leukemic relapse. In human transplants, we show that donor-versus-recipient natural killer (NK)-cell alloreactivity could eliminate leukemia relapse and graft rejection and protect patients against GVHD. In mice, the pretransplant infusion of alloreactive NK cells obviated the need for high-intensity conditioning and reduced GVHD. NK cell alloreactivity may thus provide a powerful tool for enhancing the efficacy and safety of allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation. 相似文献
