A new disease of Erica arborea in Italy caused by Neofusicoccum luteum.
No full textShoot blight was observed on Erica arborea L., in a natural growing area on Caprera Island (Italy), during 2011 and 2012. Fungal isolates obtained from 324 symptomatic shoots were identified as Neofusicoccum luteum by analysis of morphological and cultural characteristics, as well as DNA sequence data of the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) of the ribosomal DNA and part of the translation Elongation Factor 1-alpha (EF-1α) gene. Pathogenicity of the fungus was verified by stem inoculation of 3-year-old seedlings of E. arborea. This is the first report of N. luteum as a pathogen of E. arborea

Caratterizzazione molecolare di isolati di Biscogniauxia mediterranea da specie arboree ed arbustive della macchia mediterranea
No full textÈ stato effettuato uno studio molecolare mediante RAPD-PCR di isolati
di Biscogniauxia mediterranea (De Not.) O. Kuntze da rametti asintomatici
di alaterno (Rhamnus alatemus L.), citiso trifloro (Cytisus villosus
Pourret), corbezzolo (Arbutus unedo L.), erica da scopa (Erica scoparla L.),
ilatro sottile (Phillyrea angusti/olia L.), leccio (Quercus ilex L.), mirto
(Myrtus communis L.) e quercia da sughero (Quercus suber L.).
Tutti gli isolati endofitici sono caratterizzati da un'ampia variabilità
genetica che non consente differenziazioni in base alla specie vegetale di
provenienza. Tale variabilità rientra in quella già osservata per altri isolati
dello stesso fungo ottenuti da ascospore. Tuttavia gli isolati endofitici con
similarità elevata sono piià numerosi di quelli ascosporici. Ciò potrebbe essere
legato al fatto che nella sughereta in esame il fungo si diffonde anche sotto
forma di conidi

Rand, Erica - 2022 Follow Up
No full textErica Rand is a professor of Arts and Visual Culture at Bates College, an adult figure skater, author and activist. This is a follow-up interview to her previous interview for Querying the Past in 2017. Erica Rand was heavily involved with ACT- UP Portland and more specifically the branch of ACT UP called: Pissed Off Dyke Cell and Women’s Health Action Crew. But more recently she has been involved with a new form of activism through sports and writing. At Bates, she is pushing the importance of trans-inclusion policies in sports and even testing the gender limitations put in place in figure skating.https://digitalcommons.usm.maine.edu/querying_ohproject/1095/thumbnail.jp
Role of Maraviroc in minimizing the risk of graft rejection in HIV-infected kidney transplant recipients
No full textBackground Kidney transplantation in HIV-infected patients is characterized by a concerning high rate of allograft rejections. The etiological mechanisms leading to this increased immunoreactivity are still unknown. Maraviroc is a new antiretroviral agent that has been associated with immunomodulatory proprieties; therefore, its use may be a promising strategy to minimize the rate of rejections in HIV-infected kidney transplant (KT) recipients.Methods We conducted a retrospective study in our cohort of HIV-KT recipients with the aim to explore the effects of maraviroc in reducing the risk of graft rejection.Results Twenty-two HIV-infected KT recipients predominantly of Caucasian origin (86%) and with a median age of 49 (IQR, 51.9-42.2) years were evaluated. Ten HIV-infected patients were treated with maraviroc and 12 with a maraviroc-free antiretroviral regimen. After a median follow-up of 3.01 years, half of the maraviroc-treated patients (n = 5) developed seven episodes of graft rejection, most of them were T cell-mediated rejections (85.7%). Five episodes were recorded in the maraviroc-free group. The difference in the rate of graft rejections was not statistically significant (P = .23).Conclusions The administration of maraviroc was ineffective in preventing graft rejections in our cohort of patients
