The spatial genetic structure (SGS) of plant populations is determined by the outcome of key ecological processes, including pollen and seed dispersal, the intensity of local resource competition among newly recruited plants, and patterns of mortality among established plants. Changes in the magnitude of SGS over time can provide insights into the operation of these processes. We measured SGS in a population of the clonal aquatic plant, Sagittaria latifolia that had been disturbed by flooding, both before and after the flood.

Aortic graft infection, one of the most common fatal complications of aortovascular surgery, is managed mainly by the removal of infected graft material and re-establishment of vascular continuity using an extra-anatomical bypass or in situ graft replacement. Despite significant progress in perioperative, surgical, and medical treatments, the mortality and morbidity for this condition remain high. Here, we report the use of endograft implantation and prolonged intravenous antibiotics to successfully treat a life-threatening Dacron aortic tube graft infection and anastomotic leak.
