  • Diversity and Distribution of Maize-Associated Totivirus Strains from Tanzania

Mbega7 Received: 30 January 2019 / Accepted: 13 February 2019 / Published online: 21 February 2019 © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Typically associated with fungal species, members of the viral family Totiviridae have recently been shown to be associated with plants, including important crop species, such as Carica papaya (papaya) and Zea mays (maize). Maize-associated totivirus (MATV) was first described in China and more recently in Ecuador, where it has been found to co-occur with other viruses known to elicit maize lethal necrosis disease (MLND). In a survey for maize-associated viruses, 35 samples were selected for Illumina HiSeq sequencing, from the Tanzanian maize producing regions of Mara, Arusha, Manyara, Kilimanjaro, Morogoro and Pwani. Libraries were prepared using an RNA-tag-seq methodology. Taxonomic classification of the result- ing datasets showed that 6 of the 35 samples from the regions of Arusha, Kilimanjaro, Morogoro and Mara, contained reads that were assigned to MATV reference sequences. This was confirmed with PCR and Sanger sequencing. Read assembly of the six MATV-associated datasets yielded partial MATV genomes, two of which were selected for further characterization, using RACE. This yielded two full-length MATV genomes, one of which is divergent from other available MATV genomes.

  • The Latex-Fruit Syndrome: a Review on Clinical Features
    Internet Symposium on Food Allergens 2(3):2000 http://www.food-allergens.de Review: The Latex-Fruit Syndrome: A Review on Clinical Features Carlos BLANCO Sección de Alergia, Hospital de Gran Canaria Dr. Negrín, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain SUMMARY KEYWORDS During the last decade, latex IgE-mediated allergy has been recognized as a very important medical problem. At the same time, many studies have dealt with allergic cross-reactions between aeroallergens and foods. Recently, a latex allergy "latex-fruit syndrome" has been postulated, because there is clear evidence of food allergy the existence of a significant clinical association between allergies to latex and cross-reactivity certain fruits. latex-fruit syndrome Several studies have demonstrated that from 20% to 60% of latex-allergic class I chitinases patients show IgE-mediated reactions to a wide variety of foods, mainly fruits. Although implicated foods vary among the studies, banana, avocado, chestnut and kiwi are the most frequently involved. Clinical manifestations of these reactions may vary from oral allergy syndrome to severe anaphylactic reactions, which are not uncommon, thus demonstrating the clinical relevance of this syndrome. The diagnosis of food hypersensitivities associated with latex allergy is based on the clinical history of immediate adverse reactions, suggestive of an IgE- mediated sensitivity. Prick by prick test with the fresh foods implicated in the reactions shows an 80% concordance with the clinical diagnosis, and therefore it seems to be the best diagnostic test currently available in order to confirm the suspicion of latex-fruit allergy. Once the diagnosis is achieved, a diet free of the offending fruits is mandatory.

  • Propagation Experiments with Avocado, Mango, and Papaya
    Proceedings of the AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR HORTICULTURAL SCIENCE 1933 30:382-386 Propagation Experiments with Avocado, Mango, and Papaya HAMILTON P. TRAUB and E. C. AUCHTER U. S. Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. During the past year several different investigations relative to the propagation of the avocado, mango and papaya have been conducted in Florida. In this preliminary report, the results of a few of the different experiments will be described. Germination media:—Avocado seeds of Gottfried (Mex.) during the summer season, and Shooter (Mex.) during the fall season; and Apple Mango seeds during the summer season, were germinated in 16 media contained in 4 x 18 x 24 cypress flats with drainage provided in the bottom. The eight basic materials and eight mixtures of these, in equal proportions in each case, tested were: 10-mesh charcoal, 6-mesh charcoal, pine sawdust, cypress sawdust, sand, fine sandy loam, carex peat, sphagnum peat, sand plus loam, carex peat plus sand, sphagnum peat plus sand, carex peat plus loam, sand plus coarse charcoal, loam plus coarse charcoal, cypress sawdust plus coarse charcoal, and carex peat plus sand plus coarse charcoal. During the rainy summer season, with relatively high temperature and an excess of moisture without watering, 10-mesh charcoal, and the mixture of carex peat plus sand plus charcoal proved most rapid, but for the drier, cooler fall season, when watering was necessary, the mixture of cypress sawdust plus charcoal was added to the list. During the rainy season the two charcoal media, sphagnum peat, sand plus charcoal, cypress sawdust plus charcoal, and carex peat plus sand plus charcoal gave the highest percentages of germination at the end of 6 to 7 weeks, but during the drier season the first three were displaced by carex peat plus sand, and sphagnum peat plus sand.

  • Diabetes Exchange List
    THE DIABETIC EXCHANGE LIST (EXCHANGE DIET) The Exchange Lists are the basis of a meal planning system designed by a committee of the American Diabetes Association and the American Dietetic Association. The Exchange Lists The reason for dividing food into six different groups is that foods vary in their carbohydrate, protein, fat, and calorie content. Each exchange list contains foods that are alike; each food choice on a list contains about the same amount of carbohydrate, protein, fat, and calories as the other choices on that list. The following chart shows the amounts of nutrients in one serving from each exchange list. As you read the exchange lists, you will notice that one choice is often a larger amount of food than another choice from the same list. Because foods are so different, each food is measured or weighed so that the amounts of carbohydrate, protein, fat, and calories are the same in each choice. The Diabetic Exchange List Carbohydrate (grams) Protein (grams) Fat (grams) Calories I. Starch/Bread 15 3 trace 80 II. Meat Very Lean - 7 0-1 35 Lean - 7 3 55 Medium-Fat - 7 5 75 High-Fat - 7 8 100 III. Vegetable 5 2 - 25 IV. Fruit 15 - - 60 V. Milk Skim 12 8 0-3 90 Low-fat 12 8 5 120 Whole 12 8 8 150 VI.

  • Moringa Oleifera: the Future of Health Village Volunteers Juliana Silver
    Moringa oleifera: The Future of Health Village Volunteers Juliana Silver Natural History The genus Moringa is indigenous to several countries. These countries include Madagascar, Namibia, SW Angola, Kenya, Ethiopia, Red Sea, Horn of Africa, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan in the northwestern region of the Himalayans (Fahey, 2005). List of Countries and indigenous species: Kenya: M. arborea, M. borziana, M. longituba, M. rivae, M. stenopetala Somalia: M. borziana, M. longituba, M. pygmaea. Ethiopia: M. longituba, M. rivae, M. ruspoliana, M. stenopetala. Madagascar: drouhardii, M. hildebrandtii. Namibia: M. ovalifolia. Angola: M. ovalifolia. India: M. concanensis, M. oleifera. Red sea and Horn of Africa: M. peregrina. Map showing Moringa species per country Image source: http://www.mobot.org/gradstudents/olson/moringahome.html Moringa typically grows in semi-dry, desert or tropical soil which is why it grows well in many countries that normally have dry soils. There are about thirteen different known species of Moringa, of which Moringa oleifera is the most studied and used. M. oleifera are native only to India and they are now widely distributed to many other tropical parts of the world such as Egypt, The Philippines, Kenya, Ghana, Sierra Leone, Uganda, Haiti, Nicaragua, Ethiopia and many other countries with the type of soil in which Moringa thrives. Moringa can grow with very little moisture because its roots can store moisture for prolonged periods of time. Nutritional Values of Moringa Moringa tree contains many nutrients such as essential vitamins, essential minerals, amino acids, beta-carotene, anti-oxidants, anti-inflammatory nutrients, phytochemicals and it also contains both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (Kasolo NJ et al).
