Pearl millet downy mildew (DM) incidence, severity and yield losses of two pearl millet varieties (local and improved) due to the disease were determined in the field. Significant differences in the disease incidence and severity were recorded in the plots sown with metalaxyl-treated seeds and those sown with non-treated seeds, indicating the efficacy of the fungicide on the fungus. Yield losses due to non-treatment of seeds with metalaxyl was 40.88 and 45.39% in a local variety and 43.00 and 18.60% in an improved variety in the 2000 and 2001 cropping seasons respectively. Significant differences between plots sown with metalaxyl-treated and those sown with non-treated seeds were obtained for other yield components such as 1000-grains weight, panicle length and weight. 相似文献

Background
Organisms are capable of developing different phenotypes by altering the genes they express. This phenotypic plasticity provides a means for species to respond effectively to environmental conditions. One of the most dramatic examples of phenotypic plasticity occurs in the highly social hymenopteran insects (ants, social bees, and social wasps), where distinct castes and sexes all arise from the same genes. To elucidate how variation in patterns of gene expression affects phenotypic variation, we conducted a study to simultaneously address the influence of developmental stage, sex, and caste on patterns of gene expression in Vespula wasps. Furthermore, we compared the patterns found in this species to those found in other taxa in order to investigate how variation in gene expression leads to phenotypic evolution. 相似文献4.

The effect of negatively charged ions on respiratory organs and blood of rats has been studied. It was shown that the inhaling of negative air ions (NAI) for 60 min with a concentration of NAI at the place of location of animals 320-350 000 ions/cm2 activated the secretion of goblet cells without damaging the mucosa of the trachea and changed the spectrum of proteins of bronchopulmonary lavage. It was also found that the spontaneous production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by cells of nonfractionated blood after the exposure to NAI increased in both males and females; the intensity of ROS generation induced by opsonized zymosan increased only in females. Different sensitivity of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and glutathione reductase of blood to NAI in females and males was revealed. These results enable one to consider the effect of NAI as priming and a weak activation of the respiratory organs through the direct action on the mucosa of the primary target organs of the respiratory tract and then on the blood. 相似文献

Background
There have been increasing concerns regarding the safety and efficacy of neuroleptics in people with dementia, but there are very few long-term trials to inform clinical practice. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of long-term treatment with neuroleptic agents upon global cognitive decline and neuropsychiatric symptoms in patients with Alzheimer disease.Methods and Findings
Design: Randomised, blinded, placebo-controlled parallel two-group treatment discontinuation trial.Setting: Oxfordshire, Newcastle and Gateshead, London and Edinburgh, United Kingdom.Participants: Patients currently prescribed the neuroleptics thioridazine, chlorpromazine, haloperidol trifluoperazine or risperidone for behavioural or psychiatric disturbance in dementia for at least 3 mo.Interventions: Continue neuroleptic treatment for 12 mo or switch to an identical placebo.Outcome measures: Primary outcome was total Severe Impairment Battery (SIB) score. Neuropsychiatric symptoms were evaluated with the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI).Results: 165 patients were randomised (83 to continue treatment and 82 to placebo, i.e., discontinue treatment), of whom 128 (78%) commenced treatment (64 continue/64 placebo). Of those, 26 were lost to follow-up (13 per arm), resulting in 51 patients per arm analysed for the primary outcome. There was no significant difference between the continue treatment and placebo groups in the estimated mean change in SIB scores between baseline and 6 mo; estimated mean difference in deterioration (favouring placebo) −0.4 (95% confidence interval [CI] −6.4 to 5.5), adjusted for baseline value (p = 0.9). For neuropsychiatric symptoms, there was no significant difference between the continue treatment and placebo groups (n = 56 and 53, respectively) in the estimated mean change in NPI scores between baseline and 6 mo; estimated mean difference in deterioration (favouring continue treatment) −2.4 (95% CI −8.2 to 3.5), adjusted for baseline value (p = 0.4). Both results became more pronounced at 12 mo. There was some evidence to suggest that those patients with initial NPI ≥ 15 benefited on neuropsychiatric symptoms from continuing treatment.Conclusions
For most patients with AD, withdrawal of neuroleptics had no overall detrimental effect on functional and cognitive status. Neuroleptics may have some value in the maintenance treatment of more severe neuropsychiatric symptoms, but this benefit must be weighed against the side effects of therapy.Trial registration: Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials/National Research Register (#ISRCTN33368770). 相似文献6.

A unique feature of the symbiotic association between legume plants and rhizobia is the plant-derived membrane which separates the symbionts within root nodule; this membrane is termed the peribacteroid membrane (PBM). Although this membrane plays a vital role in facilitating transport and other processes in nodules, little is known about the proteins that are associated with and are an integral part of it. The objective of this work was to apply modern methods of protein purification to the characterisation of proteins of peribacteroid membrane from nodules of yellow lupine (Lupines luteus). The 17-kDa protein was isolated from purified peribacteroid membrane using size exclusion and ion exchange chromatography (FPLC). The N-terminal amino acid sequence of this protein was determined; the sequence does not match any of the previously reported lupine and other legume sequences. Following detergent solubilisation of purified peribacteroid membrane, integral proteins of 15 to 20 kDa were purified by size exclusion chromatography. 相似文献

cDNA of human peroxiredoxin VI, one of the recently discovered novel antioxidant proteins, was expressed in Escherichia coli cells. The expression product was obtained in water-soluble form and purified by a two-step chromatographic procedure using DEAE-Sepharose and Sephacryl S-200. According to CD data, the polypeptide chain of the recombinant human peroxiredoxin VI contains 40% -helical region and 30% -structure, which is the same as for native rat peroxiredoxin VI. The protective properties of the recombinant protein determined as its ability to prevent the inactivation of glutamine synthetase from E. coli in a model oxidation system were comparable with the protective properties of native rat peroxiredoxin VI. 相似文献
