Geographical distribution of genotypic and phenotypic markers among Bacillus anthracis isolates and related species by historical movement and horizontal transfer
The geographical distribution of Bacillus anthracis strains and isolates bearing some of the same genetic markers as the Amerithrax Ames isolate was examined and evaluated. At least one mechanism for the horizont...

Selection of reference films based on reliability assessment of a classification of high-resolution computed tomography for pneumoconioses
Objective: Worldwide demand has increased for the development of a computed tomography (CT) classification system that supplements the ILO classification of radiographs for pneumoconioses. The authors aimed to sh...

Space–time configurations of solute input and biological uptake in river systems traversing limestone uplands (Yorkshire Dales, northern England)
Solute concentrations, including major plant nutrients, are surveyed from sampling during 1985–89 in river systems variably influenced by upland Dinantian (Carboniferous) limestone. Concentrations of most ions...

Seasonal dynamics of phytoplankton and phytobenthos, and associated chemical interactions, in a shallow upland lake (Malham Tarn, northern England)
Seasonal changes of phytoplankton were followed over 3 years (1985–87) in a shallow, unstratified and calcareous upland lake.The phytoplankton was of low to moderate abundance and generally dominated by phytof...

Bacterial Genes Required for Pathogenicity: Interactions between Xanthomonas and Crucifers
The major classes of Gram-negative bacterial plant pathogens appear to have similar groups of genes determining pathogenicity. At least 60 genes have been identified in Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris,...

Plant and Bacterial Genes Involved in Interactions between Xanthomonas and Crucifers
Several classes of genes required for full pathogenicity of Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris have been characterised. These include 1. structural genes encoding extracellular plant degrading enzymes, 2....

Interaction Between Arabidopsis Thaliana and Xanthomonas Campestris
After infiltration into leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana, Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris grew and caused symptoms similar to those incited in Brassica under similar conditions. X.c campestris pathovars ...

Signals in Plant Defense Gene Activation
Plants respond to pathogen attack by rapid activation of defense genes. In selected experimental systems, the transcription of these genes is also induced when cultured plant cells or protoplasts are treated w...
