A dosage effect of chromosome 5A (formerly IX) of common wheat, Triticum aestivum L. emend Thell. ssp. vulgare, has been well established. With increasing dosage from monosomic to tetrasomic, the phenotype changes from speltoid to normal vulgare type (squarehead) to subcompactoid to compactoid (HUSKINS 1946; SEARS 1952, 1954) (Figure 1 and Table 3) . This is due to the pleiotropic gene Q locate...

In this work we highlight a possible synergistic anti-Candida effect between Melaleuca alternifolia, Origanum vulgare and Pelargonium graveolens essential oils and the antifungal compound Amphotericin B. The antifungal activity was assessed using the agar dilution method in eleven Candida strains. The results obtained indicate the occurrence of a synergistic interaction between the essential oi...
