Transmission of mulberry dwarf mycoplasma (MDM) from diseased mulberry to 5 herbaceous plants (periwinkle, white clover, Ladino clover, red clover, and Chinese milk vetch) through insect vector, Hishimonus sellatus, was confirmed by symptom expression and microscopic evidences. The earliest symptom appearance was noticed on periwinkle in which incubation period was 25-30 days, while it ranged 35-40 days in the other plant species. The common symptoms of MDM infected plants were characterized by poor plant growth with accompanying discolorations of leaves (chlorosis with vein clearing in periwinkle, reddish in red clover, brownish in white and Ladino clovers, and yellowish in Chinese milk vetch). Mycoplasmal infections were diagnosed light microscopically by Dienes' and toluidine blue staining of hand-cut and Epon-embedded sections, respectively. In Dienes' stain, all the plants infected with MDM showed specific staining reaction in phloems. In toluidine blue stain, mycoplasmal existence was noted by granular appearance in sieve tubes which were confirmed to be mycoplasma-like organisms under an electron microscope.

Background. Infective endocarditis s an uncommon but serious disease in children. Optimal treatment strategy, especially surgical indications, continues to evolve. Method. In this report, we retrospectively reviewed 19 patients who underwent operations in Seoul National University Children's Hospital for infective endocarditis between September 1986 and February 1996. There were 8 male and 11 female patients(mean age 70.6 months) and their main symptoms were fever and dyspnea. Preoperative echocardiography detected vegetation in 14 cases out of 19. Congenital anomalies were in 15 cases and acquired forms were in 4 cases. Causative organisms were identified in 12 cases and Gram-positive cocci were in 7 cases. Adequate preoperative antibiotic management was done. Result. With cardiopulmonary bypass in all cases, surgical corrections including vegetation removal were performed. 4 patients died after operations(21.1%). All the mortality cases were having underlying complex cardiac anomalies. There were no late deaths. Act arial survival rate was 79.0% at 1 year and 79.0% at 5 year and reoperationfree survival rate was 73.7% at 1 year and 73.7% at 5 year. Collclusion. Despite advances in antibiotic therapy, early surgical treatment is imperative in a significant subset, and concurrent intracardiac repair should be appropriate.

4231년 농림부산림국에서 송충구제책으로 경기도 임업시험장에서 인공배양한 No.7호균외 수종을 사용할 계획인바 비에 대한 임업시험장 시험보고에 의하면 핵균은 송충에 대하여 맹독성이지마는 잠아에 대하여서는 기독성이 경미하다는 보고 이였으므로 양잠가에 대한 의문을 풀기 위하여 송충 및 잠아에 대한 전염성의 강약을 비교 시험하여 그 독성정도를 구명코저 함. 1. 경기도 임업시험장 연구보고 제1호에 기재된 No.7 호균의 시험성적과 본시험성적과를 대조하면 그 이병률은 일정한 경향을 표시치 않으며 다소 상치된 결과이었다. 즉 별표에 의하면 송충은 72~100% 잠아에 있어서는 4289년도에 0~2% 4290년도이 0~20%였으나 본시험결과 (표 1,2,3)는 송충은 표준구에 6.6% 처리구에 13.3~20%이고 잠아는 5~50%의 이병률이였다. 따라서 송충에는 그 감염도가 높으며 잠아는 그 감염도자 낮다고하는 근거를 인정키 난하다. 2. 본시험에 공시된 접종균 No.7호균은 경기도 임업시험장에서 호칭하는 황황강균(Insarica farinosa)이 었으나 핵균 배양시에 이균이 침입된 관계인지는 모르나 본시험에서 폐사를 검정한 결과 백강균(Botrytis Bassiana)이였다. 따라서 No.7호균에 대한 순도가 의심되며 시험결과의 정확을 기할수가없었다. 3. 경기도 임업시험장연구보고 제1호에 접수된 양년간시검성적에 의하면 경화병균 28종중 가장 이병률이 낮다고하는 No.7호균이 본시험결과에서 잠아에 5~50%의 이병률을 나타내는것으로 보아 소위 경기도 임업시험장에서 순수분리한 균은 어느것이라도 송충에 접종하여 산지에 산포하면 그 균이 중간기생 (인교목, 직교목)을 통하여 야생화되어서 더욱 잠아에 대한 전염력을 강렬하게됨으로 양잠상 위험할것이다. 일본의 소산씨 문헌(경기도 임업시험장도서관)에 의하면 야생혼충에서 전염되는 경화병균의 독성은 잠아에 대하여 강력하다는 점과 $\ulcorner$잠업지조선$\lrcorner$제11호에 전라남도 원잠종제조소 강본태대랑씨의 시험성적(참고문헌)이 이를 여실히 입증하는 바이다.

Dental caries is a multifactorial disease influenced by interactions between teeth, biofilm, dietary factors, and various biological, behavioral, sociocultural, and genetic factors. Recent research has shown that dental caries results from dysbiosis, an imbalance in the oral microbial community, shifting the concept from an infectious disease to a non-communicable disease (NCD). Dental caries shares similarities with other chronic NCDs such as cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, as they all relate to dietary intake, lifestyle habits, and environmental factors. Considering the high prevalence of dental caries and its impact on people's health and quality of life, it is important to understand dental caries as an NCD and develop effective oral health management strategies. Ecological prevention methods and efficient public health policies should be provided to reduce risk factors associated with dental caries.

Equine infectious anemia (EIA) is a worldwide infectious disease of horses and other equids. The large serological survey of EIA was performed in Jeju from 2005 through 2011. Using the conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (cELISA), a total of 10,040 animals (1,329 Jeju Ponies, 8,324 Jeju Pony-Crossbreds and 387 Thoroughbred horses) was tested at the Equine Hospital of Jeju Race Park or Jeju Stud Farm, Korea Racing Authority. This survey found no serological evidence of EIA presence in Jeju. There had been no horse and pony with antibody against EIA since 1985 and no official report on outbreak the disease. Therefore, surveillance conducted found no evidence of EIA activity in Jeju.

The epidemic is seemed to be extremely difficult for accurate predictions. The new models have been suggested that show quite different results. The basic reproductive number of epidemic for consequent time intervals are estimated based on stochastic processes. In this paper, we proposed a transmission distribution estimation for Ebola virus disease epidemic model. This estimation can be easier to obtain in real time which is useful for informing an appropriate public health response to the outbreak. Finally, we implement our proposed method with data from Guinea Ebola disease outbreak.

Soil transmission ratio of Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus (CGMMV) was 0.2 to 3.5 ％ in watermelon growing fields naturally infested with the virus. Biological activities of CGMMV lost after 17 months in moist well-aerated soil but still continued more than 33 months in waterlogged soil. To inhibit the virus infection through soil, the roots of watermelon seedlings were soaked in 10％ solution of skim milk prior to transplanting. The seedlings treated with skim milk solution were not infected, while 5.0 to 7.6％ out of control seedlings were infected. The roots treated with skim milk were coated with membrane around the roots under scanning electron microscope.

한 쌍의 R16-1과 R23-2R primer를 이용한 PCR에 의해 증폭된 16S와 23S rDNA 사이의 rDNA spacer 부위의 다형성들이 Pseudomonas avenae, P. glumae, P. fuscovaginae, P. syringae pv. syrngae, Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, X. oryzae, Xanthomonas herbicola 등 벼 종자전염성 51개 균주의 구분을 위하여 적용되었다. 증폭산물은 820∼950bp의 크기였으며, 각각의 종에 특이적이었고 구분이 가능하였다. Pseudomonas species의 증폭산물은 P. avenae는 950bp, P. glumae는 850bp, P. fuscovaginae는 770pb 및 P. syringae pv. syringae는 1,240, 1,100 및 820bp로 특이적이었다. P. avenae와 P. glumae의 국내균주들은 다형성에 있어 종내 변이는 없었다. X. oryzae pv. oryzae의 860bp와 X. oryzae pv. oryzicola의 890, 440 및 370bp의 이차산물에서 Xanthomonas species의 종내에서 균주에 관련없이 단일화된 다형성을 보였다. CXO 211을 제외한 모든 국내 균주는 a형에 속한 반면 하나의 국내 균주를 포함하여 4개 균주는 b형이었다. E. herbicola의 spacer 부위 증폭은 여러 개의 band를 보였으며, 증폭상은 각각 동일하였고, strain간의 종내 변이는 없었다. 본 실험 결과에 의하여 16S와 23S rDNAdp R16-1과 R23-2R primer를 이용하여 PCR 증폭된 spacer 다형성의 구별은 종자전염성 세균의 신속한 구별에 이용될 수 있을것이다.

Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is an economically important disease in the poultry industry worldwide. This disease commonly manifests respiratory signs, poor egg quality, and decline in egg production. Since IBV is a RNA virus, the emergence of new variant strains is continuously reported and the immunization of susceptible chickens with only one antigenic type of the virus has been shown to induce partial or no protection against other unrelated types. Therefore, it is difficult to diagnose IBV due to variants serotypes. In this study, we collected serum from various ages of Broiler GP (Grandparent) to Layer CC (Commercial chick) and performed detectability comparison test between domestic company and multinational company manufacturing ELISA kit. Results of this experiment suggest that domestic company manufacturing ELISA kit is more sensitive to infectious bronchitis antibody than that of the multinational company. Our findings also suggest that antibody's change trends after infectious bronchitis vaccination. Thus, the use of appropriate kit for domestic situations is important.
