Adults of Cacopsylla melanoneura, vector of the apple proliferation (AP) phytoplasma, were collected every 2 weeks from January until May in 2000 and 2001 by the beating tray method in eight apple orchards of the Aosta Valley (northwestern Italy). Total DNA was extracted from batches of five insects and amplified with the universal phytoplasma primers P1/P7 in direct PCR. A nested PCR assay was then performed on P1/P7 amplicons using the primers fO1/rO1, specific for the AP‐ phytoplasma group. The digestion of fO1/rO1 amplicons with Ssp I restriction endonuclease confirmed that C. melanoneura adults harboured the AP phytoplasma. The data obtained with PCR were used to estimate the proportion of AP‐positive insects in over wintered and offspring adults. Percentages of AP‐positive insects of 3.6% and 0.8% were estimated in 2000 among over wintered and offspring psyllids respectively. In 2001 only the over wintered insects were found infected, with an estimated proportion of 2.8%. The seasonal abundance of the vector was measured using yellow sticky traps. C. melanoneura was always present at a low population level, and the highest density was recorded from mid‐February until mid‐March in both years. The results show that the overwintered population is higher and spends a longer period in apple orchards, suggesting the crucial role of the overwintered adults in vectoring AP. 相似文献

We characterized 59 canine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the endangered Italian wolf (Canis lupus) population, which were discovered by resequencing sequence‐tagged‐site (STS) DNA sequences that are known to contain SNPs in domestic dogs. Dog SNPs were usually found also in wolves. Additional SNPs unique in dogs or wolves were discovered, which is important for detecting hybrids between dogs and wolves. We developed new primer sets and analysed 15 SNPs by Pyrosequencing. The characterized SNPs will provide an important addition to the genetic markers that are currently available for studying wild populations of canids. 相似文献

Summary In Anastrepha sp.2 aff. fraterculus, the egg-cell harbours a large population of endosymbionts. The bacteria were identified as belonging to genus Wolbachia by PCR assay using primers of the ftsZ gene followed by sequencing of the amplified band. Newly deposited eggs stained in toto by Hoechst show that the bacteria are unevenly dispersed throughout the egg-cell, with a higher accumulation at the posterior pole, and that the degree of infestation varies from egg to egg. Analysis by transmission electron microscopy shows that bacteria are present in the female germ line of embryonic and larval stages, as well as in the different cell types of the ovaries at the adult stage. Mature ova within the follicles harbour a large population of the symbionts. The results indicate the existence of a transovarian transmission of the endosymbionts in this fly. 相似文献

This study examined the transcultural robustness of a screening instrument
for hypomania, the Hypomania Checklist-32, first revised version (HCL-32 R1).
It was carried out in 2606 patients from twelve countries in five geographic
regions (Northern, Southern and Eastern Europe, South America and East Asia).
In addition, GAMIAN Europe contributed data from its members. Exploratory
and confirmatory factor analyses were used to examine the transregional stability
of the measurement properties of the HCL-32 R1, including the influence of
sex and age as covariates. Across cultures, a two-factor structure was confirmed:
the first factor (F1) reflected the more positive aspects of hypomania (being
more active, elated, self-confident, and cogni-tively enhanced); the second
factor (F2) reflected the more negative aspects (being irritable, impulsive,
careless, more substance use). The measurement properties of the HCL-32 R1
were largely invariant across cultures. Only few items showed transcultural
differences in their relation to hypomania as measured by the test. F2 was
higher among men and in more severe manic syndromes; F1 was highest in North
and East Europe and lowest in South America. The scores decreased slightly
with age. The frequency of the 32 items showed remarkable similarities across
geographic areas, with two excep-tions: South Europeans had lower symptom
frequencies in general and East Europeans higher rates of substance use. These
findings support the interna-tional applicability of the HCL-32 R1 as a screening
instrument for hypomania. 相似文献

The genus Phymaturus (Reptilia: Liolaemidae) is distributed in the mountains and rocky plateaux of Argentina and Chile and comprises two groups of species, palluma and patagonicus. The two lineages have diverged early in the evolution of the genus and up to today, there is very little geographical overlap between them. We worked with records of localities from the literature, herpetological collections and field data to evaluate habitat suitability of the genus Phymaturus. We used 11 environmental variables to develop environmental niche models (ENMs) for each group within the genus using the Maxent software, and to determine those variables that best explain the distribution of each group. We also estimated measures of niche similarity using ENMTools to determine whether niche differentiation is real or apparent. The geographical overlap between the groups was very low considering the large geographical range of the genus. Some variables, such as mean annual temperature, soil type and bare soil cover, have a high contribution to the models for both groups. The current niche overlap between Phymaturus groups indicates that the environmental niches of the palluma and patagonicus groups are not equivalent. Based on background analysis, we cannot reject the hypothesis that similarity (or divergence) between groups of Phymaturus is no more than expected based on the availability of habitat. The results of this study are a first approximation to the knowledge of the environmental variables associated with the palluma and patagonicus groups, and reveal that the ecological differences found between these groups are more likely due to habitat availability in their respective regions than to differences in habitat preferences. 相似文献

We describe a species of Odontites, O. bolligeri E.Rico, L.Delgado & Herrero, endemic to the south‐eastern Iberian Peninsula and north Africa, from Morocco to Tunisia. This species belongs to the O. purpureus group and corresponds to the taxon that the monographer Markus Bolliger called O. squarrosus subsp. squarrosus. However, according to the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN), this is an invalid name, and hence we propose a new name for these plants here. Drawings of the new species are also supplied. In addition, we compare and discuss the other species of the O. purpureus group, propose a key for them and include a karyological study of the two Iberian species of the group. © 2008 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2008, 158 , 701–708. 相似文献

Mixed infections have been broadly applied to the study of bacterial pathogens in animals. However, the application of mixed infection-based methods in plant pathogens has been very limited. An important factor for this limitation is the different dynamics that mixed infections have been reported to show in the different types of models. Reports in systemic animal infections have shown that any bacterium has the same probability of multiplying within a mixed infection than in a single infection. However, in plant pathogens, bacterial growth in a mixed infection does not seem to reflect growth in a single infection, as growth interference takes place between the co-inoculated strains. Here we show that growth interference in mixed infection between different Pseudomonas syringae strains is not intrinsic to growth within a plant host, but dependent on the dose of inoculation. We also show that the minimal inoculation dose required to avoid interference depends on the aggressiveness of the pathogen as well as the type of virulence factor that differentiates the co-inoculated strains. This study establishes the basis for the use of mixed infection-based applications to the study of phytopathogenic bacteria. Analysis of the virulence of a type III effector mutant and an hrp regulatory mutant illustrate the increased accuracy and sensitivity of competitive index assays vs. regular growth assays. Several applications of this assay are addressed, and potential implications for this and other mixed infection-based methods are discussed. 相似文献

Abstract: Up to now, more than 40 dinosaur sites have been found in the latest Jurassic – earliest Cretaceous sedimentary outcrops (Villar del Arzobispo Formation) of Riodeva (Iberian Range, Spain). Those already excavated, as well as other findings, provide a large and diverse number of sauropod remains, suggesting a great diversity for this group in the Iberian Peninsula during this time. Vertebrae and ischial remains from Riodevan site RD-13 are assigned to Turiasaurus riodevensis (a species described in RD-10, Barrihonda site), which is part of the Turiasauria clade. This is the first time that a taxon is attributed to Turiasaurus genus out of its type site. A Neosauropod caudal vertebra from the RD-11 site has been classified as Diplodocinae indet., supporting the previous attribution on an ilion also found in Riodeva (CPT-1074) referring to the Diplodocidae clade. New remains from the RD-28, RD-41 and RD-43 sites, of the same age, among which there are caudal vertebrae, are assigned to Macronaria. New sauropod footprints from the Villar del Arzobispo Formation complete the extraordinary sauropod record coming to light in the area. The inclusion of other sauropods from different contemporaneous exposures in Teruel within the Turiasauria clade adds new evidence of a great diversity of sauropods in Iberia during the Jurassic–Cretaceous transition. Turiasauria distribution contributes to the understanding of European and global palaeobiogeography. 相似文献
