Evidence for strong inter- and intracontinental phylogeographic structure in Amanita muscaria, a wind-dispersed ectomycorrhizal basidiomycete.

A growing number of molecular studies show that many fungi have phylogeographic structures and that their distinct lineages are usually limited to different continents. As a conservative test of the extent to which wind-dispersed mycorrhizal fungi may exhibit phylogeographic structure, we chose to study Amanita muscaria, a host-generalist, widespread, wind-dispersed fungus. In this paper, we document the existence of several distinct phylogenetic species within A.

[Immunological aspects of food intolerance in children during first years of life].

A study was made of the morphofunctional status and local defence of the gastrointestinal tract in 122 children aged 4 months to 6 years, suffering from food intolerance showed up by atopic dermatitis in 52 children and by chronic diarrhea in 70 children. Based on the allergological anamnesis, scarification cutaneous tests with food allergens, detection of antibodies to food antigens (RAST, HAIT) food allergy was revealed in all the children. Chronic gastroduodenitis was identified in all the children suffering from atopic dermatitis and in 95% of the children with chronic diarrhea.
