First report of Verticillium wilt and mortality of caused by and in Spain.

(Mill.) swingle is a highly invasive tree that has become established worldwide, especially in the Mediterranean Basin because of its good drought resistance. is included in the list of Invasive Alien Species of the EU, so measures for eradication and management are required.

Prevalence of Streptomycin-Resistant Erwinia amylovora in New York Apple Orchards.

Resistance to streptomycin in Erwinia amylovora was first observed in the United States in the 1970s but was not found in New York until 2002, when streptomycin-resistant (SmR) E. amylovora was isolated from orchards in Wayne County. From 2011 to 2014, in total, 591 fire blight samples representing shoot blight, blossom blight, and rootstock blight were collected from 80 apple orchards in New York.

Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy in two children with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

An association between chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) and type 1 diabetes has been described in adults, but not previously in children. Two adolescents with both CIDP and type 1 diabetes are reported here. In order to raise the awareness of CIDP among pediatricians, a description of the clinical and laboratory features, treatment, and prognosis of the condition is provided.

Determination of denaturated proteins and biotoxins by on-line size-exclusion chromatography-digestion-liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometry.

A multidimensional analytical method for the rapid determination and identification of proteins has been developed. The method is based on the size-exclusion fractionation of protein-containing samples, subsequent on-line trypsin digestion and desalination, and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometry detection. The present system reduces digestion times to 20 min and the total analysis time to less than 100 min.

[Burns in childhood. Social implications in the eve of the year 2000].
