Zschokkella icterica sp. nov. is described from the liver and gall bladder of wild rabbitfish Siganus luridus from the Red Sea. This coelozoic myxosporean produces large (300 × 400 μm) Plasmodia that inhabit the hepatic bile ducts. The species is disporoblastic and pansporoblast forming. Small
Poplars accumulate high B concentrations and are thus used for the phytomanagement of B contaminated soils. Here, we performed pot experiments in which Populus nigra × euramericana were grown on a substrate with B concentrations ranging from 13 to 280 mg kg(-1) as H(3)BO(3). Salix viminalis,
Impatiens necrotic spot (INSV) and tomato spotted wilt (TSWV) tospoviruses are among the most important viral pathogens of glasshouse ornamental plants worldwide (1). Tospovirus infections drastically reduce the market value of plants and create certification problems for international traders. As
Chronic inflammation contributes to multiple ageing-related musculoskeletal and neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease. More recently, chronic neuroinflammation has been attributed to Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease and
Roots, pods, and pegs of 'Argentine' and 'Starr' peanut cultivars inoculated with Criconemoides ornatus were severely discolored with brown necrotic lesions. Nematodes were attached to roots, pods, and pegs often in large numbers. Small necrotic lesions were often superficial, but necrosis in large
The type strain of Vibrio owensii (DY05) was isolated during an epizootic of aquaculture-reared larvae (phyllosomas) of the ornate spiny lobster (Panulirus ornatus). V. owensii DY05 was formally demonstrated to be the etiological agent of a disease causing rapid and reproducible larval mortality
Hepatic lesions in 4 field cases of ovine hepatogenous photosensitization caused by the plant, Asaemia axillaris (Thunb.) Harv. Ex Jackson, are described. The liver was usually swollen, friable and yellowish-brown, with distinct lobulation. Microscopically, the lesions ranged from peripheral
This study aimed to investigate the effect of total flavonoids of Choerospondias axillaris (TFC) on myocardial infarction (MI)-induced cardiac dysfunction, interstitial fibrosis and inflammatory reaction and further to clarify the potential signaling pathway involved. Rats were subjected to MI via
OBJECTIVE
To observe the unique structural features of chicken calamus keratin (CCK) conduit as a candidate scaffold material for tissue engineering and its in vivo degradation and histocompatibility after its implantation into living tissues.
METHODS
Chicken calami were taken from healthy chickens
Modulation of immune response to alleviate disease has been of interest since long. Plant extracts have been widely investigated for possible immunomodulatory properties. We have evaluated the anticellular and immunomodulatory properties of ethanolic extract of Acorus calamus rhizome. This extract
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the toxicity of chicken calamus keratin (CCK) conduit as a tissue-engineered scaffold material.
METHODS
The chemical composition of the leaching solution of CCK was determined by means of ultraviolet spectrometry, and the toxic effects of the solution was evaluated by skin
Thirty-six cases of bites by spiders are reported; in all cases, the spider was identified. No cases resulted in the formation of local ulcers, in necrosis, or in serious systemic symptoms. Eight bites by Lampona cylindrata, the white-tailed spider, caused a mild sting to sharp pain of short
Ranaviruses have been observed with increasing frequency amongst poikilothermic vertebrate hosts. The impact of ranaviruses upon amphibian populations has remained largely unknown. A gene probe for Bohle iridovirus (BIV) based upon primers designed to detect epizootic haematopoietic necrosis virus
Short rotation woody biomass cultivars developed from fast-growing shrub species of willow (Salix spp.) have superior properties as perennial energy crops for the Northeast and Midwest US. However, the insect pest potato leafhopper (PLH) Empoasca fabae (Harris) can cause serious damage and reduce
