Historical Setting of the Guianan Plant Heritage The Guianas are embedded high in the green shoulder of northern South America, an area once known as the "Wild Coast". They are the only non-Latin American countries in South America, and are situated just north of the Equator in a configuration with the Amazon River of Brazil to the south and the Orinoco River of Venezuela to the west. The three Guianas comprise, from west to east, the countries of Guyana (area: 83,000 square miles; capital: Georgetown), Surinam (area: 63, 037 square miles; capital: Paramaribo) and French Guiana (area: 34, 740 square miles; capital: Cayenne). Perhaps the earliest physical contact between Europeans and the present-day Guianas occurred in 1500 when the Spanish navigator Vincente Yanez Pinzon, after discovering the Amazon River, sailed northwest and entered the Oyapock River, which is now the eastern boundary of French Guiana.

  • Extension Plant Pathology Update July 2013
    Extension Plant Pathology Update July 2013 Volume 1, Number 6 Edited by Jean Williams-Woodward Plant Disease Clinic Report for June 2013 By Ansuya Jogi and Jean Williams-Woodward The following tables consist of the commercial and homeowner samples submitted to the UGA plant disease clinics in Athens and Tifton for June 2013 (Table 1) and for one year ago in July 2012 (Table 2). The wet weather has been great for plant growth, as well as plant diseases. Various root rots, leaf spots and rusts have been diagnosed on almost all crops. The incidence of bacterial diseases will increase through July, as will Sclerotium rolfsii and Rhizoctonia diseases. We also continue to confirm Rose Rosette-associated virus on Knock-Out rose samples. Also, Dr. Little has confirmed Cucurbit Yellow Vine Disease on squash, caused by the bacterium, Serratia marcescens. She has a graduate student working on this disease and wants to know if you are seeing it. See page 7 for her summary of cucurbit diseases, including cucurbit yellow vine disease. Looking ahead with the current weather pattern, we expect to see more leaf and root diseases on all crops. This isn’t a surprise. Warm days, cooler nights, high humidity, wet foliage and saturated soils are the recipe for plant disease development. Again, it is an exciting time to be a plant pathologist.

New record of Chaetomium species isolated from soil under pineapple plantation in Thailand. Journal of Agricultural Technology 4(2): 91-103. Chaetomium species were isolated from soil in pineapple plantations in Phatthalung and Rayong provinces by soil plate and baiting techniques. Taxonomic study was based on available dichotomously keys and monograph of the genus. Five species are recorded as follows: C. aureum, C. bostrychodes, C. cochliodes, C. cupreum and C. gracile. Another four species are reported to be new records in Thailand as follows: C. carinthiacum, C. flavigenum, C. perlucidum and C. succineum. Key words: Chaetomium, Taxonomic study Introduction Chaetomium is a fungus belonging to Ascomycota of the family Chaetomiaceae which established by Kunze in 1817 (von Arx et al., 1986). Chaetomium Kunze is one of the largest genera of saprophytic ascomycetes which comprise more than 300 species worldwide (von Arx et al., 1986; Soytong and Quimio, 1989; Decock and Hennebert, 1997; Udagawa et al., 1997; Rodríguez et al., 2002).

  • Risk Patterns of Lung Cancer Mortality in Northern Thailand
    Rankantha et al. BMC Public Health (2018) 18:1138 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-018-6025-1 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Risk patterns of lung cancer mortality in northern Thailand Apinut Rankantha1,2, Imjai Chitapanarux3,4,5, Donsuk Pongnikorn6, Sukon Prasitwattanaseree2, Walaithip Bunyatisai2, Patumrat Sripan3,4,5 and Patrinee Traisathit2,7* Abstract Background: Over the past decade, lung cancers have exhibited a disproportionately high mortality and increasing mortality trend in Thailand, especially in the northern region, and prevention strategies have consequently become more important in this region. Spatial analysis studies may be helpful in guiding any strategy put in place to respond to the risk of lung cancer mortality in specific areas. The aim of our study was to identify risk patterns for lung cancer mortality within the northern region of Thailand. Methods: In the spatial analysis, the relative risk (RR) was used as a measure of the risk of lung cancer mortality in 81 districts of northern Thailand between 2008 and 2017. The RR was estimated according to the Besag-York-Mollié autoregressive spatial model performed using the OpenBUGS routine in the R statistical software package. We presented the overall and gender specific lung cancer mortality risk patterns of the region using the Quantum Geographic Information System. Results: The overall risk of lung cancer mortality was the highest in the west of northern Thailand, especially in the Hang Dong, Doi Lo, and San Pa Tong districts. For both genders, the risk patterns of lung cancer mortality indicated a high risk in the west of northern Thailand, with females being at a higher risk than males.
