Data on the incidence of paralysis and lymphomatous tumors in a flock of 542 pullets of six different breeds indicate the presence of both in 14 out of 52 paralyzed pullets, while an additional 22 had tumors but were not paralyzed. The association of paralysis and tumors may have been due to chance. The evidence presented, while not conclusive, points to the inheritance of resistance to paralysis. This is indicated particularly by (1) differences in the proportion of paralyzed pullets in different breeds, and (2) absence of paralysis among the progeny of certain males and in certain large families. The data obtained point to a simple mode of inheritance.

A recently discovered mouse model (‘mdx’) for muscular dystrophy in man may be of considerable interest, since the disease in ‘mdx’ mice is inherited by the same mode of inheritance (X-linked) as the human Duchenne (DMD) muscular dystrophy. Unlike DMD, which results in a situation in which the continual muscle destruction cannot keep up with abortive regenerative attempts of the musculature, and the sufferers of the disease die early, the disease in ‘mdx’ mice appears to be transient, and the mice do not die as a result of it. In fact, it has been reported that the severely damaged Tibialis anterior (TA) muscles of ‘mdx’ mice seem to display exceptionally good regenerative powers at 4-6 weeks, so much so, that these muscles are able to regenerate spontaneously up to their previous levels of physiological activity.

Après avoir sacrifié longtemps aux dieux virils (Mars, Apollon, Mercure) Clio se tourne de plus en plus vers les autels des déesses-mères : Cérès, Vénus, Genitrix… Cette image, qui nous est inspirée par le titre d'un des ouvrages utilisés ci-dessous, traduit, à sa manière, l'évolution de la recherche historique, depuis sa seconde naissance au XIXe siècle. Est-ce une simple mode, comme, naguère, l'engouement pour les livres de raison ? Non, sans doute. Histoire agraire et démographie constituent le tuf de l'histoire tout court. Elles appellent d'ailleurs, à cause de leur caractère total, la coordination des efforts et l'établissement de plans d'enquête rigoureux. A un niveau plus modeste, ce que nous essayerons ici, c'est de confronter un certain nombre de travaux récents hollandais, belges et français, tant du point de vue de leurs méthodes que du point de vue de leurs résultats.
