fat necrosis is a benign inflammatory process which can involve adipose tissue anywhere in the body. a previous history of trauma or surgery may or may not be present. information about the clinical and radiological appearance of this lesion is very important because it can mimic breast cancer. in this article, we review the features of fat necrosis in different imaging modalities including mam...

Pasche, J. S., Mallik, I., Anderson, N. R., and Gudmestad, N. C. 2013. Development and validation of a real-time PCR assay for the quantification of Verticillium dahliae in potato. Plant Dis. 97:608-618. An increase in the stringency for higher quality potato tubers and restrictions on the use of soil fumigants, among other factors, has garnered renewed interest in Verticillium wilt, particular...

The soil-borne fungus Fusarium oxysporum causes vascular wilts of a wide variety of plant species by directly penetrating roots and colonizing the vascular tissue. The pathogenicity mutant B60 of the melon wilt pathogen F. oxysporum f. sp. melonis was isolated previously by restriction enzyme-mediated DNA integration mutagenesis. Molecular analysis of B60 identified the affected gene, designate...

diazinon is a moderately persistent organ phosphorus pesticide largely used in agriculture. thepurpose of this study was to evaluate the histopathological damages induced by diazinon in gills, kidney,spleen, and intestine tissues of rainbow trout, oncorhynchus mykiss. the fishes were exposed to sub-lethalconcentrations of diazinon (0.1 and 0.2 mg/l) for a period of 28 days. tissues analyzed by ...

introduction: there are several different molecular pathways in tissue damage by ischemic brain injury. the use of antioxidants and free radical scavengers are a matter of attention by some researchers. crocus sativus (saffron) is used previously for protective effects in ischemia state by some researchers. to assess pathologic aspects of neuroprotection of saffron in some susceptible brain are...

Twenty isolates of Trichoderma harzianum wereisolated from the rhizosphere of healthy pistachio plants from different localities of Kerman Province, Iran.Five isolates with high antagonistic activity in in vitro assays against Verticillium dahliae (the causal agent of pistachio wilt), were investigated for their effect on the defense enzymes, peroxidase (PO), phenyl alanine-ammonia lyase (PAL) ...

To identify secreted virulence factors involved in bacterial wilt disease caused by the phytopathogen Ralstonia solanacearum, we mutated tatC, a key component of the twin-arginine translocation (Tat) secretion system. The R. solanacearum tatC mutation was pleiotropic; its phenotypes included defects in cell division, nitrate utilization, polygalacturonase activity, membrane stability, and growt...
