A polypeptide structurally related to the thaumatin family of proteins has been purified from soybean (Glycine max) leaves and the complete amino acid sequence has been determined. The mature protein, which we have termed P21, has a calculated molecular weight of 21,461 and an isoelectric point of
Increasing specific leaf weight (SLW) may improve leaf apparent photosynthesis (AP) in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] but screening for SLW and AP is laborious. The Objectives of this study were (i) to determine the time course of SLW and chlorophyll concentration in experimental lines selected
Laboratory bioassays for testing the effect of agrochemicals on Euseius victotiensis (Womersley) and Galendromus occidentalis (Nesbitt) on detached leaves of Glycine max (L.) (soybean) and Phaseolus vulgaris L. (French bean) were developed. The tests allowed standardized comparisons between mite
Nigeria is the only country in West Africa where soybean rust, caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi, has been officially reported (1). During a disease survey in Ghana during October 2006, soybean (Glycine max) leaves with rust symptoms (tan, angular lesions with erumpent sori exuding urediniospores)
Kudzu is an introduced legume commonly found growing as a perennial throughout the southeastern United States. This fast-growing vine was originally planted as an ornamental for forage and to prevent erosion (2), but is now considered an invasive species. During April 2011, a kudzu plant growing
Calla lilies are ornamental plants of major economic importance in Taiwan. They are grown in the central and northern areas of the island, and ≈3 million stems are shipped annually. Calla lilies are susceptible to several viruses (1). Infections by Cucumber mosaic virus, Dasheen mosaic virus, Turnip
The ascochyta blight complex on field pea (Pisum sativum) in Australia causes severe yield loss of up to 60% (1). This blight complex includes a range of different symptoms, including ascochyta blight, foot rot, and black stem and leaf and pod spot (together more commonly known as "black spot
Several viral diseases of soybean (Glycine max) have been identified in the north-central U.S. soybean production area, which includes Wisconsin and Iowa (2). Previously, Soybean vein necrosis disease (SVND) caused by Soybean vein necrosis-associated virus was reported in Arkansas, Tennessee, and
Novel species of fungi described in this study include those from various countries as follows: Antarctica, Apenidiella antarctica from permafrost, Cladosporium fildesense from an unidentified marine sponge. Argentina, Geastrum wrightii on humus in mixed forest.
