We investigated the bacterial communities of nine Bartonella-positive fleas (n = 6 Oropsylla hirsuta fleas and n = 3 Oropsylla montana fleas), using universal primers, clone libraries, and DNA sequencing. DNA sequences were used to classify bacteria detected in a phylogenetic context, to explore community assembly patterns within individual fleas, and to survey diversity patterns in dominant li...

Vanoxonin, a new inhibitor of thymidylate synthetase, was found in cultured broths of the strain MG245-CF2 classified as Saccharopolyspora hirsuta. Vanoxonin, C18H25N3O9, was obtained as colorless powder. Vanoxonin forms a vanadium complex which exhibits a strong inhibition against thymidylate synthetase. The concentration for 50% inhibition of the enzyme (IC50) was 0.7 micrograms/ml.

Abstract Background Sarcocystis hirsuta , a tissue cyst-forming coccidian parasite of cattle, is worldwide in distribution. In spite its global presence, limited literature available on characterization studies. No from India molecular aspects S. hirsuta. The present study was designed to characterize the isolates 18S gene locus. A total five were characterized. PCR products cloned, sequenced, ...

Two new species, Neoseiulus elisiensis n. sp. and Neoseiulus neomarginatus n. sp., are described from Greece. Neoseiulus leucophaeus (Athias-Henriot) is re-described and illustrated based on specimens collected on Thymelaea hirsuta (L.) Endl. A key to all species of the genus Neoseiulus Hughes reported from Greece is provided.

A standard draft genome sequence of the white rot saprotrophic fungus Trametes hirsuta 072 (Basidiomycota, Polyporales) is presented. The genome sequence contains about 33.6 Mb assembled in 141 scaffolds with a G+C content of ~57.6%. The draft genome annotation predicts 14,598 putative protein-coding open reading frames (ORFs).

The first report of a biocatalytic regioselective oxidative mono-cleavage of dialkenes was successfully achieved employing a cell-free enzyme preparation from Trametes hirsuta at the expense of molecular oxygen. Selected reactions were performed on a preparative scale affording high to excellent conversions and chemoselectivities.

Ten Linnaean names of Pedicularis (Orobanchaceae) are lectotypified: P. comosa, P. flammea, P. hirsuta, P. incarnata, P. lapponica, P. resupinata, P. rostrata, P. tristis, P. tuberosa and P. verticillata. Lectotypes are designated from the Linnaean herbarium at LINN. The type choices made here maintain the present usage of the corresponding Linnaean names for ten Pedicularis species.

Artocarpus hirsutus Lam.,(Wild jack) belonging to the family Moraceae a large evergreen tree up to 70m height, found up to an altitude of 1200M in evergreen India. The wood is straight blackish brown in color; it is very strong tree and has main advantage of lightness. It is used for the treatment of ulcers, diarrhea and pimples. The present study includes Pharmacognostical studies of the bark ...
