Poster Session Anelloviridae Epidemiology Virus Family: Anelloviridae Category: Epidemiology/Transmission Title: Genogroup distribution and viral load of Torquetenovirus in fecal samples Authors: C. A. PINHO-NASCIMENTO1, J. P. G. LEITE 2, C. NIEL1, L. DINIZ- MENDES1 Address: 1Laboratório de Virología Molecular; 2Laboratório de Virología Comparada e Ambiental, Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Fiocruz, Avenida Brasil 4365, 21040-360 Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil. E-mail:[email protected] Abstract: Torquetenovirus (TTV, floating genus Anellovirus) is a non enveloped DNA virus with circular, single-stranded genome with size of 3.8 kb. TTV is highly prevalent in populations from around the world. TTV isolates have been classified into five main phylogenetic groups (1-5) showing a large genetic distance between them. The presence of TTV has been detected in feces. However, whether all five TTV genogroups are excreted in feces and the frequency of these events are presently unknown. The presence of TTV DNA was assessed in feces from 135 Brazilian (0-90 years old) patients with gastroenteritis by using three PCR methods, including real-time PCR. One hundred and twenty one (91.1%) samples were positive with at least one method. Using a genogroup-specific assay, it was shown that all genogroups were present. Thirty-seven (27.4%), 27 (20.0%), 57 (42.2%), 29 (21.5%) and 33 (24.4%) fecal samples contained TTV isolates belonging to genogroups 1 to 5, respectively. Coinfections with two, three, four and five TTV genogroups were found in 23 (17.0%), 15 (11.1%), 7 (5.2%) and 7 (5.2%) fecal samples, respectively. -

Este Código se aplica por igual a los nombres de grupos taxonómicos tratados como algas, hongos y plantas, hayan sido o no considerados así originalmente (véase el Pre. 8). Principio II: La aplicación de los nombres de los grupos taxonómicos se determina por medio de los tipos nomenclaturales. Principio III: La nomenclatura de un grupo taxonómico se basa en la prioridad de la publicación. Principio IV: Cada grupo taxonómico con circunscripción, posición y rango particulares puede llevar solo un nombre correcto, el más antiguo que esté de acuerdo con las reglas, excepto en casos determinados. Principio V: Los nombres científicos de los grupos taxonómicos se consideran latinos, sin reparar en su origen. -

Phylogenetic Relationships in the Order Cucurbitales and a New Classification of the Gourd Family (Cucurbitaceae)
Schaefer & Renner • Phylogenetic relationships in Cucurbitales TAXON 60 (1) • February 2011: 122–138 TAXONOMY Phylogenetic relationships in the order Cucurbitales and a new classification of the gourd family (Cucurbitaceae) Hanno Schaefer1 & Susanne S. Renner2 1 Harvard University, Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, 22 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138, U.S.A. 2 University of Munich (LMU), Systematic Botany and Mycology, Menzinger Str. 67, 80638 Munich, Germany Author for correspondence: Hanno Schaefer, [email protected] Abstract We analysed phylogenetic relationships in the order Cucurbitales using 14 DNA regions from the three plant genomes: the mitochondrial nad1 b/c intron and matR gene, the nuclear ribosomal 18S, ITS1-5.8S-ITS2, and 28S genes, and the plastid rbcL, matK, ndhF, atpB, trnL, trnL-trnF, rpl20-rps12, trnS-trnG and trnH-psbA genes, spacers, and introns. The dataset includes 664 ingroup species, representating all but two genera and over 25% of the ca. 2600 species in the order. Maximum likelihood analyses yielded mostly congruent topologies for the datasets from the three genomes. Relationships among the eight families of Cucurbitales were: (Apodanthaceae, Anisophylleaceae, (Cucurbitaceae, ((Coriariaceae, Corynocarpaceae), (Tetramelaceae, (Datiscaceae, Begoniaceae))))). Based on these molecular data and morphological data from the literature, we recircumscribe tribes and genera within Cucurbitaceae and present a more natural classification for this family. Our new system comprises 95 genera in 15 tribes, five of them new: Actinostemmateae, Indofevilleeae, Thladiantheae, Momordiceae, and Siraitieae. Formal naming requires 44 new combinations and two new names in Cucurbitaceae. Keywords Cucurbitoideae; Fevilleoideae; nomenclature; nuclear ribosomal ITS; systematics; tribal classification Supplementary Material Figures S1–S5 are available in the free Electronic Supplement to the online version of this article (http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/iapt/tax). -

Medlcinal PLANTS of JAMAICA. PARTS 1 &
MEDlCINAL PLANTS OF JAMAICA. PARTS 1 & 11. By G. F. Asprey, M.Sc., Ph.D. (B'ham.), Professor of Botany, U.C.W.l. and Phyllis Thornton, B.Sc. (Liverpool), Botanist Vomiting Sickness Survey. Attached to Botany Depart- ment, U.C.W.l. Reprinted from the West Indian Medical Journal. Vol. 2 No. 4. Vol. 3 No. 1. MEDICINAL PLANTS OF JAMAICA G. F. ASPREY AND PHYLLIS THORNTON PART I The use of local plants for medicinal remedies is a very prevalent practice in Jamaica. Among the poorer families, the morning meal frequently consists of nothing more than a cup of bush-tea prepared by steeping the leaves in hot water, with perhaps a small piece of bread or a little corn meal porridge. It is perhaps significant that the term breakfast is not used but 'taking' or ‘drinking' tea is substituted. Many of the plants used for treatment of colds and indigestion also provide the normal morning drinks. The large number of 'cold', 'fever' (which includes malaria) and 'indigestion' remedies is of some interest as providing a guide to the frequency of these complaints. The claims made for some of the plants may occasionally be justified by their chemical constituents. Some of them are, or have been, in the pharmacopoeias. On the other hand, in many cases the claims either have little justification or remain to be substantiated. Many of the doses used are of an unpleasant and even drastic nature. This may account for their popularity in view of the general impression that medicine must be unpleasant to be efficacious. -

Traditional herbal mixtures in Eastern Cuba are investigated through interviews with 130 knowledgeable people and traditional healers of the provinces of Santiago de Cuba and Guantánamo. One hundred seventy plant species and other products are used in 199 formulas, galones being the more complex. Cocos nucifera L. (Arecaceae), Bidens pilosa L. (Asteraceae), Cissus sicyoides L. (Vitaceae), Erythroxylum havanense Jacq. (Erythroxylaceae) and Stachytarpheta jamaicensis (L.) Vahl. (Verbenaceae)are the species most frequently cited. The ecological distribution of the taxa and cultural and anthropological aspects of mixtures are highlighted; particularly American and African influences that have shaped local knowledge about plant combinations are discussed. © 2003 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
