Captive primates are susceptible to gastrointestinal (GIT) parasitic infections, which are often zoonotic and can contribute to morbidity and mortality. Fecal samples were examined by the means of direct smear, fecal flotation, fecal sedimentation, and fecal cultures. Of 26.51% (317/1196) of the captive primates were diagnosed gastrointestinal parasitic infections. Trichuris spp. were the most predominant in the primates, while Entamoeba spp. were the most prevalent in Old World monkeys (P < 0.05). These preliminary data will improve the management of captive primates and the safety of animal keepers and visitors. 相似文献

In this communication, we used electrochemical sensor for recording the electrochemical profiles of eleven species of Yulania spp. from leaf extract. Two solvents and two buffer conditions were used for electrochemical fingerprints collection. Their electrochemical fingerprints can be converted to different patterns and consequently for species recognition. The results indicate the pattern recognition is much convenient than that of the recognition of species directly using voltammetric signal. The current information in electrochemical fingerprinting represents the type and amount of electrochemically active molecules, which linked to the genetic differences among the plants. Therefore, the electrochemical fingerprints were applied for further phylogenetic study. The phylogenetic tree deduced from voltametric curves is divided into three main groups. The first clade contains Y. denudate, Liriodendron chinense, Y. cylindrica, Y. biondii, Y. sprengeri. The second clade contains Y. zenii, Y. liliiflora, Y. kobus, and Y. amoena. The third clade contains Y. × soulangeana, Manglietia fordiana and Y. sinostellata. In addition, Y. salicifolia is not in these main clades. The results demonstrate that electrochemical fingerprinting can be used as a com-plementary tool in the study of phylogenetics. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of wild animals for Anaplasma phagocytophilum, other ehrlichiae/anaplasmae, Rickettsia helvetica and other rickettsiae and whether different genetic variants of A. phagocytophilum in central Slovakia exist. A total of 109 spleen samples from 49 red deer (Cervus elaphus), 30 roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), 28 wild boar (Sus scrofa) and two mouflon (Ovis musimon) were collected from June 2005 to December 2006. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of the16S rRNA gene was used
for detection of ehrlichiae/anaplasmae. A nested PCR targeting part (392 bp) of groESL gene was applied for the specific detection of A. phagocytophilum. Fragments of the gltA and ompA genes (381 bp and 632 bp, respectively) were amplified to detect rickettsiae, followed by sequencing. A. phagocytophilum and R. helvetica were detected in wild animals. The prevalence of A. phagocytophilum was 50.0 ± 18.2% in roe deer and 53.1 ± 14.1% in red deer. None of the 28 wild boar was PCR positive for ehrlichiae/anaplasmae.
A. phagocytophilum was detected in one mouflon. R. helvetica was found in one roe deer. Our study suggests a role of cervids as a natural reservoir of A. phagocytophilum in Slovakia. However, the role of cervids and wild boars in the circulation of R. helvetica remains unknown. The analysis of sequence variation in the msp4 coding region of A. phagocytophilum showed the presence of different variants previously described in ruminants. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to identify the species of ked infesting dogs in the cities of central Poland. A total of 510 dogs were observed between June and September 2015. The presence of keds was noted in 182 (35.7%) animals. Keds were more prevalent in female (38.0%) than in male (33.2%) dogs, and were more frequently found in animals younger than 1 year (46.2%) and in long‐haired dogs (36.6%). The body areas most heavily colonized by keds were the groin (35.4%) and neck (21.4%). A total of 904 keds were isolated from dogs, including Hippobosca equina (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) (17.2%), Lipoptena cervi (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) (32.0%), and two species not previously encountered in Poland: Hippobosca longipennis (45.0%) and Lipoptena fortisetosa (5.9%). Hippoboscidae may act as vectors of pathogens and any shifts in their geographic range may lead to the spread of new diseases affecting animals. 相似文献

Production of energy crops is promoted as a means to mitigate global warming by decreasing dependency on fossil energy. However, agricultural production of bioenergy can have various environmental effects depending on the crop and production system. In a field trial initiated in 2008, nitrate concentration in soil water was measured below winter wheat, grass‐clover and willow during three growing seasons. Crop water balances were modelled to estimate the amount of nitrate leached per hectare. In addition, dry matter yields and nitrogen (N) yields were measured, and N balances and energy balances were calculated. In willow, nitrate concentrations were up to approximately 20 mg l?1 nitrate‐N during the establishment year, but declined subsequently to <5 mg l?1 nitrate‐N, resulting in an annual N leaching loss of 18, 3 and 0.3 kg ha?1 yr?1 N in the first 3 years after planting. A similar trend was observed in grass‐clover where concentrations stabilized at 2–4 mg l?1 nitrate‐N from the beginning of the second growing season, corresponding to leaching of approximately 5 kg ha?1 yr?1 N. In winter wheat, an annual N leaching loss of 36–68 kg ha?1 yr?1 was observed. For comparison, nitrate leaching was also measured in an old willow crop established in 1996 from which N leaching ranged from 6 to 27 kg ha?1 yr?1. Dry matter yields ranged between 5.9 and 14.8 Mg yr?1 with lowest yield in the newly established willow and the highest yield harvested in grass‐clover. Grass‐clover gave the highest net energy yield of 244 GJ ha?1 yr?1, whereas old willow, winter wheat and first rotation willow gave net energy yields of 235, 180 and 105 GJ ha?1 yr?1. The study showed that perennial crops can provide high energy yields and significantly reduce N losses compared to annual crops. 相似文献

The occurrence of keratinophilic fungi on the feathers of 110 starlings (Sturnus vulgaris) was investigated in order to assess
the part that these birds may have in spreading of fungi of medical interest. Thirty eight birds (26%) yielded keratinophilic
fungi, primarily Chrysosporium species, but also Scopulariopsis brevicaulis and Trichophyton terrestre. We reviewed the pathogenicity
of the isolated fungi. Starlings may spread the propagules of keratinophilic fungi but it is difficult to determine if their
increasing numbers in cities can be of significance in the epidemiology of today's rare mycoses.

To examine the effect of dietary supplementation with 1-kestose on the IgA levels in milk, BALB/c mice were fed diets with or without 5% 1-kestose during pregnancy and lactation. The total and specific IgA levels in the milk were measured at 7 and 14?days after delivery. A two-way ANOVA with repeated measures resulted in a significant effect of 1-kestose-supplementation on total IgA concentrations (p?<?0.05) and the level of anti-Bacteroides IgA (p?<?0.05). A significant positive correlation was found between the mean count of Bacteroides spp. in maternal feces and the total IgA concentration in maternal milk (r?=?0.55, p?<?0.05), suggesting a potential link between the gut and mammary gland immune system. In conclusion, this study demonstrated the effects of dietary prebiotics on milk IgA production. 相似文献

Lipase producing ability of 120 bacterial isolates was examined qualitatively, resulting in 32 lipase producers, which were further screened for 1,3-regiospecificity. Three Bacillus (GK-8, GK-31 and GK-42) and one Pseudomonas (GK-80) were found to produce 1,3-regiospecific lipases. These lipases were alkaline in nature as they showed pH optima of 9.0 and high stability in the alkaline pH range of 8.0–11.0. The lipases from three Bacillus isolates, viz. GK-8, GK-31 and GK-42 showed temperature optima of 37 °C, whereas the Pseudomonas (GK-80) lipase showed optimum activity at 50 °C. The lipase of GK-8 was highly stable and showed enhanced activity in different organic solvents like petroleum ether (172%), diethyl ether (143%) and acetone (135%). 相似文献

Keeping in view the staid health and ecological apprehensions coupled with the use of pesticides, entomopathogenic nematodes have the potential to supersede pesticides for the management of various pests. Brinjal plants are the most seriously affected by Meloidogyne incognita. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the persistence effectiveness of bacterial cell suspensions (Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus spp.) and their culture filtrates in soil up to 7, 14 and 21?days and their response against M. incognita as a source of biological control for nematode management. In a life cycle study, Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus spp., isolated from Steinernema asiaticum and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, were proved more effective in influencing the life cycle of RKNs. It was found that all the treatments of bacterial cell suspensions and their culture filtrates at all persistent times proved effective in reducing the number of females and egg masses as compared to control. It delayed penetration of nematode juveniles (J2) into host roots. It was concluded that persistence effectiveness of bacteria and their metabolites decreased in soil with time. 相似文献

Acanthamoeba spp. are opportunistic pathogens that are ubiquitous in nature. Many species of this genus are responsible for a fatal encephalitis and keratitis in humans and other animals. Seventy‐two soil samples were collected from the parishes across Jamaica and assessed for the presence of Acanthamoeba spp. Cultivation was carried out on non‐nutrient agar plates seeded with heat killed Escherichia coli. PCR and sequencing of the DF3 region were carried out in order to genotype the isolated strains of Acanthamoeba. Thermotolerance and osmotolerance assays were utilized to investigate the pathogenic potential of the Acanthamoeba isolates. Acanthamoeba spp. was isolated from 63.9% of soil samples. Sequencing of the DF3 region of the 18S rDNA resulted in the identification of genotypes T4, T5, and T11. T4 genotype was most frequently isolated. Most isolates were thermotolerant or both thermotolerant and osmotolerant, indicating that they may present the potential to cause disease in humans and other animals. 相似文献

During an eight-year field study at two widely-separated locations (NJ & DE, USA), seven species of phytophagous mirid plant bugs were found in alfalfa and alfalfa-grass fields grown for animal forage. Five species of parasites were reared from these mirids. Two parasite species introduced from Europe killed significantly higher proportions of nymphs of the two important mirid pests of alfalfa than did native parasites. The introduced Peristenus digoneutis Loan parasitized an average of 31% of first and second generation tarnished plant bugs, Lygus lineolaris, a native insect; and the introduced Peristenus conradi parasitized 22% of first generation alfalfa plant bugs, Adelphocoris lineolatus, an introduced species. In addition, Peristenus pallipes significantly parasitized nymphs of Trigonotylus caelestialium (43%) and Leptopterna dolabrata (37%); both mirids are immigrant species. Because the parasite P. pallipes significantly attacked only these two non-native mirids, and is present in Europe, it also may be an accidental introduction to North America. A native wasp, Leiophron uniformis, heavily parasitized (49%) the native garden fleahopper, Halticus bractatus. A third native species, P. pseudopallipes, occasionally parasitized a few Lygus lineolaris in alfalfa at one location. Two other mirids, Stenotus binotatus and Megaloceroea recticornis, both accidently-introduced grass-feeding species, were not parasitized by native or introduced species. It is noteworthy that the effective host ranges of all the parasites in alfalfa-grass fields were limited: four of the five parasite species significantly parasitized only one of the seven mirid species, and the other parasite significantly parasitized only two mirids. Activity of the four common parasites was correlated with the mirids' host plant: three species principally parasitized alfalfa-feeding mirids, and one species principally parasitized grass-feeding mirids. 相似文献

Several molecular techniques have been used to differentiate species or genetic lineages of microorganisms prior to sequencing. Among them, BOX‐ and ERIC‐PCRs may provide specific banding patterns for different species, allowing its differentiation. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate these techniques as a tool for differentiation of phylogenetic lineages belonging to the Colletotrichum gloeosporioides species complex associated with cassava anthracnose disease. Sets of BOX‐ and ERIC‐PCR primers were used to assess the differentiation of lineages belonging to the complex with 81 C. gloeosporioides sensu lato (s.l.) isolates from different cassava producing regions. Some were identified by sequencing, such as Colletotrichum fructicola, Colletotrichum tropicale, C. gloeosporioides s.s, Colletotrichum theobromicola, Colletotrichum siamense, Colletotrichum brevisporum and Colletotrichum sichuanensis. The primers were able to amplify DNA fragments from all isolates. The ERIC‐PCR presented a wider range of banding patterns in comparison to BOX‐PCR, providing better differentiation of the individuals, as well as a higher correlation with the phylogenetic data was obtained by ERIC‐PCR and the combined data set for “BOX‐/ERIC‐PCRs,” inferred by Mantel test. However, the use of concatenated data (BOX‐/ERIC‐PCRs) reduced the discriminatory capacity presented by ERIC‐PCR alone, probably due to the lowest resolution of BOX‐PCR. Therefore, ERIC‐PCR technique enabled efficient differentiation of isolates belonging to the C. gloeosporioides complex and can be used to analyse multiple isolates in a collection and also being an important tool as a guide in the decision‐making process prior to sequencing. Based on this methodology, it was possible to identify two new species associated with cassava anthracnose disease, C. brevisporum and C. sichuanensis, being the first report of these two species associated with cassava anthracnose disease in Brazil. 相似文献
