Molecular characterization of a novel mycovirus from binucleate Rhizoctonia AG-A strain A46.

The complete genome sequence of a positive-sense single-stranded RNA (+ ssRNA) virus, Rhizoctonia beny-like virus 1 (RBLV1), isolated from binucleate Rhizoctonia AG-A strain A46, was determined. The RBLV1 genome is 10,280 nt in length and contains a short stretch of adenines at the 3' terminus. It contains a single open reading frame (ORF) encoding a 376.

Identification and nucleotide sequencing of a novel partitivirus derived from Rhizoctonia solani AG-4 HG III isolate A14.

Rhizoctonia solani is a widely disseminated phytopathogen that is found in the soil and is capable of harming many important species of crops. Here, analysis of the R. solani AG-4 HG III strain A14 led to the identification of a novel mycovirus assigned the tentative name "Rhizoctonia solani partitivirus A14" (RsPV-A14), which was subjected to sequencing and associated analyses.

Complete nucleotide sequence of a novel mycovirus infecting Rhizoctonia fumigata AG-Ba isolate C-314 Baishi.

The complete nucleotide sequence of a novel mycovirus, designated as "Rhizoctonia fumigata bipartite virus 1" (RfBV1), from Rhizoctonia fumigata AG-Ba isolate C-314 Baishi was determined. The genome of RfBV1 is composed of two double-stranded RNAs (dsRNA). dsRNA-1 (2311 bp) contains one open reading frame (ORF), which codes for the putative RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of the virus.

Complete nucleotide sequence of a novel alphapartitivirus from Rhizoctonia solani AG-4 HG III isolate SM03.

In this report, the full genome sequence of a novel mycovirus, designated as "Rhizoctonia solani partitivirus SM03" (RsPV-SM03), was determined in Rhizoctonia solani AG-4 HG III isolate SM03. RsPV-SM03 genome consists of two dsRNAs (dsRNA-1 and dsRNA-2), each of them contains one single open reading frame (ORF). ORF1 of dsRNA-1 encodes a putative RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), while ORF2 of dsRNA-2 encodes a putative viral coat protein (CP).

Complete genome sequence of a novel mitovirus from binucleate Rhizoctonia AG-K strain FAS2909W.

The full-length AU-rich (63.14%) 2,794-nucleotide sequence of Rhizoctonia mitovirus K1 (RMV-K1) isolated from the binucleate AG-K strain FAS2909W was determined. The positive strand of RMV-K1 contains a large open reading frame (ORF) when the fungal mitochondrial genetic code is used.

General anesthetic neurotoxicity in the young: Mechanism and prevention.

General anesthesia (GA) is usually considered to safely induce a reversible unconscious state allowing surgery to be performed without pain. A growing number of studies, in particular pre-clinical studies, however, demonstrate that general anesthetics can cause neuronal death and even long-term neurological deficits. Herein, we report our literature review and meta-analysis data of the neurological outcomes after anesthesia in the young.

Diagnostic accuracy of radiology (CT, X-ray, US) for predicting difficult intubation in adults: A meta-analysis.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the overall accuracy of radiological measurements in prediction of difficult airway and compare the diagnostic value between the radiological measurements and the modified Mallampati score through a meta-analysis of published studies.

Methods: A comprehensive electronic search of related literature was performed in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. Meta-DiSc 1.

Preparation of novel biodegradable ropivacaine microspheres and evaluation of their efficacy in sciatic nerve block in mice.

In this study, ropivacaine chitosan-loaded microspheres for subcutaneous administration were developed. The systems were characterized in terms of surface morphology, particle size, encapsulation efficiency, and in vitro release behavior. Results showed that the microspheres had drug loading rate of 7.

In vivo and ex vivo effects of propofol on myocardial performance in rats with obstructive jaundice.

Background: Responsiveness of the "jaundiced heart" to propofol is not completely understood. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of propofol on myocardial performance in rats with obstructive jaundice.

Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 40) were randomly allocated into two groups, twenty underwent bile duct ligation (BDL), and 20 underwent a sham operation.
