Public Examiner rSk( 7A7oJ Date Approved I ABSTRACT A mycobiota survey was conducted on Vancouver Island and mainland BC to identify potential biocontrol agents of salmonberry. The species, which included 17 isolates of Bot~tiscinerea, 3 Phoma argillacea and 1 Septoria rubi, were pathogenic on detached leaves. Greenhouse trials showed P. argillacea induced foliar and stem necrosis on intact plants with an 18-hr leaf wetness period and mycelial inoculum of 2.6~10~CFUImL. In a host range test, three conifer species showed seedling tolerance and red raspberry showed initial damage but no cane blight when inoculated with P. argillacea. Salmonbeny DNA was isolated from leaves collected from five widespread populations. RAPD-PCR was used to fingerprint individuals, generating 35 loci with a 75.5% average variability. Diversity within populations was high, with an average heterozygosity of 0.38. Among population differentiation was poor, with an FSTof 0.0454; therefore, an average 5.3 migrants per generation is required to maintain this variation.

Wildlife: Salmonberry fruits, ripe from June to August, rank at the very top of foods for wildlife. The early blooming flowers, blossoming from March to June, are an important nectar source for bees, butterflies, various other insects, and hummingbirds.

  • Raspberry Breeding and Protection Against Disease and Pests I
    391 Bulgarian Journal of Agricultural Science, 20 (No 2) 2014, 391-404 Agricultural Academy RASPBERRY BREEDING AND PROTECTION AGAINST DISEASE AND PESTS I. TOTIC State University of Novi Pazar, Novi Pazar, Republic of Serbia Abstract TOTIC, I., 2014. Raspberry breeding and protection against disease and pests. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 20: 391-404 The raspberry (Rubus idaeus) is a very important type of small perennial berry. Based on the extent of its production, it comes second only to the strawberry and currant, and based on its economic importance, it is second only to the strawberry. Considering that the first raspberry cultivars in the true sense of the word originated from the beginning of the 17th century, polmology has managed to this day to register and systematize over one thousand raspberry cultivars. The raspberry belongs to the group of products, which have the greatest degree of marketability, and in some countries (the Republic of Serbia) over 99 % of the overall production is meant to be sold on the market. In suitable agro-ecological and technical conditions (a profes- sional staff, processing and freezing capacities, organized purchase locations, high quality roads and means of transportation, a sufficient workforce needed to harvest the crop), it is possible to achieve a yield of up to 35 tons per acre. Raspberry canes meant for planting need to be formed in suitable soil and must be healthy. Raspberries are traditionally cultivated in open ar- eas, and lately also in high tunnels. The canes are susceptible to disease caused by different types of pests and weeds. In order to protect them, it is necessary to regularly resort to pomotechnic and agrotechnic measures in order to prevent cane decay and a poor harvest.

    MAGYAR NYELVŐR 137. ÉVF. * 2013. JÚLIUS–SZEPTEMBER * 3. SZÁM A Magyar Nyelvtudományi Társaság működésének kezdetei 1905-ben Kik alkották a társaság tagságát a megalakulást követő évben?*1 1. Szily Kálmán a Magyar Nyelv 1906. évi kötetének az elején Olvasóinkhoz cí- men röviden utalt a Társaság és folyóirata indulásával kapcsolatos aggodalmaira, de – állapítja meg ugyanakkor – ez utóbbiak feleslegesnek bizonyultak. Meg is in- dokolta miért: „Társaságunk tagjai a lefolyt évben oly mértékben felszaporodtak s folyóiratunk köré annyi előfizető sorakozott, hogy semmit sem kellett Semsey Andor adományából elköltenünk s az egészet alaptőkénkhez csatolhattuk, sőt még ezen felül is jelentékeny összeggel szaporíthattuk a Társaság vagyonát. Társasá- gunk és folyóiratunk léte ez idő szerint tehát biztosítva van” (Szily 1906: 1–2). Felidézte aztán a Társaság alapszabályaiban rögzített feladatokat. Megjegyzem még, hogy Bárczi tanár úr is a Társaság gyors felvirágzásáról beszélt a hatvanéves jubileumon (Bárczi 1965: 5). Szily Kálmán elnök az 1905. január 24-i választmányi ülésen már bemutatta a tervnek pontosan megfelelően a Magyar Nyelv első füzetét. A füzetből 1100 pél- dányt nyomtattak, 700-at a tagok számára, 300-at mutatványszámnak és 100-at a könyvárusok részére. Az elnök bemutatta az 1904. évről szóló számadást és az 1905. évre javasolt költségvetést. 2. Hogy milyen gondja volt a vezetőségnek a népnyelvi gyűjtésre, azt igazolja az 1905. évi január 24-i választmányi ülésen hozott határozat. Eszerint „addig is, amíg a népnyelvi gyűjtést rendszeresen megkezdhetik, a Nagy Szótár anyagából azt, a mi a Magyar Tájszótárban nincs meg, a Magyar Nyelvben közzéteszik” (1905: 188). Ezen az ülésen is regisztrálták a rendes tagoknak felvetteket. A Szily Kál- mán ajánlatára elfogadott 53 rendes tag között volt például Baksay Sándor Duna- melléki református püspök (Kunszentmiklós), Csánki Dezső országos levéltár - nok (Budapest), Goldziher Ignác orientalista egyetemi tanár (Budapest), Marczali Henrik történész egyetemi tanár (Budapest), Móricz Zsigmond író (Budapest), id.

Aveskamp, [email protected] #Current address: Mycolim BV, Veld Oostenrijk 13, 5961 NV Horst, The Netherlands Abstract: Fungal taxonomists routinely encounter problems when dealing with asexual fungal species due to poly- and paraphyletic generic phylogenies, and unclear species boundaries. These problems are aptly illustrated in the genus Phoma. This phytopathologically significant fungal genus is currently subdivided into nine sections which are mainly based on a single or just a few morphological characters. However, this subdivision is ambiguous as several of the section-specific characters can occur within a single species. In addition, many teleomorph genera have been linked to Phoma, three of which are recognised here. In this study it is attempted to delineate generic boundaries, and to come to a generic circumscription which is more correct from an evolutionary point of view by means of multilocus sequence typing. Therefore, multiple analyses were conducted utilising sequences obtained from 28S nrDNA (Large Subunit - LSU), 18S nrDNA (Small Subunit - SSU), the Internal Transcribed Spacer regions 1 & 2 and 5.8S nrDNA (ITS), and part of the β-tubulin (TUB) gene region.
