Investigations were carried out in 2007–2009 on the plots of the Felin Experimental Station belonging to the University of Life Sciences in Lublin, Poland. The studies comprised two breeding lines of spelt wheat (<em>Triticum aestivum</em> ssp. <em>spelta</em> L. Thell.) – STH 3 and STH 715. Two levels of chemical protection were applied in the cultivation with minimal and complex protection. Infection of winter spelt wheat roots and stem bases was recorded in each growing season at hard dough stage (87 in Zadok’s scale). After 3 years of the study, the mean values of disease indexes for the analyzed spelt wheat lines in the experimental treatment with minimal protection were 28.53 and 40.30 respectively for STH 3 and STH 715. In the experimental combination with complex protection, after 3 years of the study the mean values of disease indexes ranged from 25.96 (STH 3) to 26.90 (STH 715). The mycological analysis showed that <em>Fusarium</em> spp., especially <em>F. culmorum</em>, caused root rot and necrosis of stem bases of spelt wheat in the experimental combination with minimal and complex protection. Moreover, <em>Fusarium avenaceum</em> and <em>Bipolaris sorokiniana</em> caused root rot and necrosis of stem bases of spelt wheat. Investigation carried out in a growth chamber on susceptibility of seedlings of three lines of spelt wheat (LO 2/09/n/2, LO 5/09/13/3, LO 5/09/5/4) to infection with <em>Fusarium graminearum</em> No. 8 and <em>F. graminearum</em> No. 45 showed that the genotypes did not differ in their susceptibility. All of them were susceptible, as indicated by high values of the disease indexes. No interaction was found between genotypes and strains of the fungus. This indicates the differential pathogenicity of <em>Fusarium graminearum</em> species.

Investigations were carried out in 2007-2009 on the plots of the Felin Experimental Station belonging to the University of Life Science in Lublin. The studies comprised two cultivation lines of durum wheat (<i>Triticum durum</i> L.): STH 716 and STH 717, as well as the 'Tonacja' cultivar of common wheat (<i>T. aestivum</i> ssp. <i>vulgare</i> L.). Two levels of chemical protection were applied in the cultivation: minimal and complex protection. Infection of wheat roots and stem bases was recorded in each growing season at hard dough stage (87 in Tottman's scale, 1987). After three years of study, the mean disease indexes for the analyzed wheat genotypes in the experimental treatment with minimal protection were 31.13, 30.43 and 38.83 for, respectively, the 'Tonacja' cultivar and the cultivation lines of <i>T. durum</i> STH 716 and STH 717. In the experimental combination with complex protection, after three years of study the disease indexes ranged from 25.26 (<i>T. durum</i> STH 716) to 30.83 (<i>T. durum</i> STH 717). The results of mycological analysis of diseased plants showed that <i>Fusarium</i> spp., especially <i>F. culmorum</i>, <i>F. avenaceum</i> as well as <i>Bipolaris sorokiniana</i> and <i>Rhizoctonia solani</i>, caused root rot and necrosis of wheat stem bases. The analyzed chemical protection levels did not significantly influence grain yield of the investigated genotypes of <i>T. aestivum</i> and <i>T. durum</i>.

The Mean

Soil-borne infection of Bipolaris sorokiniana caused foot and root rot in all spring barley cultivars studied. Significant differences in susceptibility of the cultivars and pathogenicity of the fungus isolates were found. Primary symptoms caused by the fungus were seedling blight, later foot and root rot. Yield losses caused by the fungus varied from 3 % to 33 % the mean being c. 15 %. Yield losses could occur without severe disease symptoms. Toxic metabolites produced by the fungus induced visible foot and root symptoms in all cultivars tested and caused lesions in the leaves of some cultivars. Variability in toxin production of fungus isolates as well as the reaction of a cultivar to toxins was demonstrated. The cultivars most susceptible to soil-borne infection by the fungus also showed the most severe symptoms when exposed to toxic metabolites of the fungus.

The Mean

The mean annual nitrogen absorption (lb./acre) of hay crops (excluding roots and stubble) was: alfalfa, 94.9; timothy, 39.5; western rye, 62.9; brome, 61.1. For entire hay plants to plow depth, based on sods one and three years old, the corresponding figures were: 241.8, 152.2, 137.8, 154.2. For entire wheat plants following one-, three-, and five-year-old sods of these hay crops for six, four, and two successive years, respectively, the mean values were: 63.4, 58.6, 56.3, 51.9. These figures are taken to indicate roughly the relative rates of soil nitrification under and after the crops in question, except under alfalfa, a legume.The roots and stubble of the hay plants contained about 71% of the dry matter and 68% of the nitrogen of these plants, whereas the wheat roots and stubble contained only 19% of the dry matter and 9% of the nitrogen of these plants.Preceding crops and seasonal conditions, especially the latter, affected the protein content and hardness of the wheat grain. Protein content of grain was generally, though not invariably, in the same relative order as indicated rates of soil nitrification after the four hay crops. Protein content was related quantitatively to hardness of grain and to loaf volume of bread, but there was no evidence of qualitative differences in the protein following the various hay crops.

Rot Disease

Fusarium graminearum is one of the most common and potent fungal pathogens of wheat (Triticum aestivum), known for causing devastating spike infections and grain yield damage. F. graminearum is a typical soil-borne pathogen that builds up during consecutive cereal cropping. Speculation on systemic colonization of cereals by F. graminearum root infection have long existed but have not been proven. We have assessed the Fusarium root rot disease macroscopically in a diverse set of 12 wheat genotypes and microscopically in a comparative study of two genotypes with diverging responses. Here, we show a ‘new’ aspect of the F. graminearum life cycle, i.e., the head blight fungus uses a unique root-infection strategy with an initial stage typical for root pathogens and a later stage typical for spike infection. Root colonization negatively affects seedling development and leads to systemic plant invasion by tissue-adapted fungal strategies. Another major outcome is the identification of partial resistance to root rot. Disease severity assessments and histological examinations both demonstrated three distinct disease phases that, however, proceeded differently in resistant and susceptible genotypes. Soil-borne inoculum and root infection are considered significant components of the F. graminearum life cycle with important implications for the development of new strategies of resistance breeding and disease control.

Experimentos in vitro e em campo, em Passo Fundo, RS, foram conduzidos em 1999 e 2000 com o objetivo de determinar o efeito da combinação de fungicida e bioprotetor no tratamento de sementes de trigo (Triticum aestivum). Foram avaliados os seguintes produtos e doses comerciais para 100 kg de sementes: Paenibacillus macerans (Embrapa 144), 13 g; P. macerans + difenoconazole 15 FS (13 g + 200 ml); P. macerans + difenoconazole (13 g + 100 ml); P. macerans + difenoconazole (6,5 g + 100 ml); difenoconazole, 200 ml. Sementes não tratadas foram mantidas como controle. O delineamento experimental foi blocos ao acaso, com quatro repetições. Os tratamentos que continham o bioprotetor P. macerans (Embrapa 144) e/ou o fungicida difenoconazole reduziram significativamente os patógenos nas sementes de trigo (Fusarium graminearum, Bipolaris sorokiniana, Drechslera tritici-repentis e Aspergillus spp.) in vitro, destacando-se as combinações de ambos, que reduziram drasticamente os patógenos das sementes ou os eliminaram. Em condições de campo, todos os tratamentos promoveram aumentos significativos na germinação e no rendimento de grãos, com exceção de difenoconazole, que aumentou apenas o rendimento, em relação à testemunha. Em campo, os efeitos na germinação e no rendimento foram maiores quando houve a integração do controle biológico com o químico, mesmo quando as doses foram reduzidas à metade. Essa combinação de métodos de proteção poderá diminuir substancialmente o uso de pesticidas na cultura de trigo.

Abstract Background: Common root rot (CRR) of wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a serious soilborne fungal disease in wheat growing areas of the world. The toxicity of 8 agents against three pathogens, Bipolaris sorokiniana, Rhizoctonia cerealis, and Fusarium pseudograminearum, was first determined. Then, three agents, Celest, Dividend and Raxil, were screened for mixed-agent effects against B. sorokiniana. Results: The EC50 of a 1:4 mixture of Celest and Dividend was 0.0372 mg/L, and the cotoxicity coefficient (CTC) was 160.14. The EC50 of a 1:4 mixture of Celest and Raxil was 0.0757 mg/L, and the CTC was 151.75. The results revealed the potential of two mixtures, Celest: Dividend (1:4) and Celest: Raxil (1:4), to protect wheat against B. sorokiniana. In the pot experiment, the best control effect, which was 49.85% and 32.22% at the seedling and adult stages, respectively, was achieved with Celest: Dividend (1:4). In the pot and field tests, the control effects of the two mixtures were better than those of the 3 single agents. Conclusion: This result indicated that the combination of these agents could improve the efficacy of control of CRR.

High speed cinefluorography was used to track articulatory movements preceding and following full-mouth tooth extraction and alveoloplasty in two subjects. Films also were made of a control subject on two separate days. The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of dramatically altering the structural dimensions of the oral cavity on the kinematic parameters of speech. The results showed that the experimental subjects performed differently pre and postoperatively though the changes were in different directions for the two subjects. Differences in both means and variabilities of kinematic parameters were larger between days for the experimental (operated) subjects than for the control subject. The results for the Control subject also showed significant differences in the mean values of kinematic variables between days though these day-to-day differences could not account for the effects found pre- and postoperatively. The results of the kinematic analysis, particularly the finding that transition time was most stable over the experimental conditions for the operated subjects, are used to speculate about the coordination of normal speech.

SummaryThis study was performed to evaluate the influence of different routes of administration on the efficacy of DDAVP treatment. Ten healthy volunteers received DDAVP intranasally (i.n.), subcutaneously (s.c.) and intravenously (i.v.) in a randomized cross-over trial. Factor XII and high molecular weight (HMW)-kininogen levels increased only slightly after DDAVP administration. The mean increase of factor VIII: C was 3.1 (i. v.), 2.3 (s. c.), and 1.3 (i.n.) - fold over baseline. Ristocetin cofactor (von Willebrand factor antigen) increased 3.1 (2.5), 2.0 (2.3) and 1.2 (1.2) - fold over baseline mean values after i.v., s.c. and i.n. DDAVP, respectively. The half-disappearance time of factor VIII and von Willebrand factor (vWF) after DDAVP ranged from five (factor VIII: C) to eight hours (vWF). The mean increase of fibrinolytic activity was more pronounced after i.v. DDAVP. The antidiuretic effect was moderate with no apparent differences between the routes of application. This study provides further evidence that both i.v. and s.c. DDAVP administration result in an appropriate and reliable stimulation of haemostasis. An additional advantage of s. c. administration is its suitability for home treatment.

Background: Frozen shoulder is disorder of the connective tissue that limits the normal Range of motion of the shoulder in diabetes, frozen shoulder is thought to be caused by changes to the collagen in the shoulder joint as a result of long term Hypoglycemia. Mobilization is a therapeutic movement of the joint. The goal is to restore normal joint motion and rhythm. The use of mobilization with movement for peripheral joints was developed by mulligan. This technique combines a sustained application of manual technique “gliding” force to the joint with concurrent physiologic motion of joint, either actively or passively. This study aims to find out the effects of mobilization with movement and end range mobilization in frozen shoulder in Type I diabetics. Materials and Methods: 30 subjects both male and female, suffering with shoulder pain and clinically diagnosed with frozen shoulder was recruited for the study and divided into two groups with 15 patients each based on convenient sampling method. Group A patients received mobilization with movement and Group B patients received end range mobilization for three weeks. The outcome measurements were SPADI, Functional hand to back scale, abduction range of motion using goniometer and VAS. Results: The mean values of all parameters showed significant differences in group A as compared to group B in terms of decreased pain, increased abduction range and other outcome measures. Conclusion: Based on the results it has been concluded that treating the type 1 diabetic patient with frozen shoulder, mobilization with movement exercise shows better results than end range mobilization in reducing pain and increase functional activities and mobility in frozen shoulder.
