Despite routine vaccination programs against Newcastle disease (ND), sporadic cases have occasionally occurred that remain a constant threat to commercial poultry. Ten isolates of Newcastle disease viruses (NDV) from infected broiler chicken cases were obtained from various locations in Fars province during 2009-2011 and genetically analyzed using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction...

Fusarium verticillioides, F. proliferatum, and F. meridionale were identified as the predominant fungi among 116 Fusarium isolates causing maize ear and kernel rot, a destructive disease in Chongqing areas, China. The toxigenic capability and genotype were determined by molecular amplification and toxin assay. The results showed that the key toxigenic gene FUM1 was detected in 47 F. verticillio...

Fusariosis is an emerging opportunistic mycosis against which currently used antifungals have limited activity. Here, we investigated the in vitro activities of pentamidine (PNT) against 10 clinical isolates of Fusarium species (five Fusarium solani isolates and five non-F. solani isolates) by using the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards microdilution method in three different...

This study was undertaken to identify and characterize amino acid substitutions in gyrA and parC related with quinolone resistance of 27 nalidixic acid-resistant (NaR) Salmonella isolates collected in poultry slaughterhouses in Korea. A total of 51 Salmonella isolates were detected from 44.8% (47/105) of the total samples from 15 poultry slaughterhouses examined, among which 27 (52.9%) NaR isol...

Some members of the familyClavicipitaceae are endophytic and have mutualistic relationship with the plant family Poaceae. Their relationship is beneficial for both host and fungus. In the present investigation, endophytic fungi were isolated from seed and leaf sheath of hosts Festuca arundinacea, F. ovina, F. pratensis, Bromus tomentellus, Melica persica and Lolium prenne. Morphological charact...

Fusarium solain is the most important pathogen of huge range of plant hosts, especially potato in the word, which causes tuber rot in storage and root rot of potato plants in fields. Fifty four isolates from potato, bean, chickpea and cucurbit (melon, watermelon and cucumber) was subjected in a study through analysis of vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) and rep-PCR DNA fingerprinting. Nit ...

Five Fusarium graminearum and 12 F. culmorum isolates, primarily pathogenic species of Fusarium head blight, were obtained from naturally infected wheat from various agro-ecological regions of Turkey. Genotyping of the isolates was carried out using random-amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). Sixty-five 10-mer oligonucleotide primers were used to amplify the RAPD markers. Among them, 50 primers pr...

Endofitne gljive žive unutar biljaka ne uzrokujući očite simptome bolesti. Korovi koji rastu u blizini poljoprivrednih polja mogu poslužiti kao alternativni domaćin ovih gljiva. Izolirali smo endofitne iz 6 vrsta korova, uobičajenih za istočnu Hrvatsku te bez očitih simptoma bolesti: Abutilon theophrasti, Amaranthus retroflexus, Ambrosia arthemisiifolia, Chenopodium album, Sorghum halepense i X...
