Effect of actinomycin D on the multiplication of the infectious pancreatic necrosis virus of trout

Résumé La croissance du virus de la nécrose infectieuse pancréatique dans les cultures des cellules de la truite est arrêtée dans une proportion de plus de 99% par l'actinomycine D, à toutes les concentrations essayées. La réaction sensible à l'actinomycine a lieu dans les premières phases du processus infectieux.     

The effect of proflavine on the infection ofPhaseolus vulgaris L. by tobacco necrosis virus

Zusammenfassung Proflavin hemmt die Infektion vonPhaseolus vulgaris L. durch Tabaknekrosevirus, wenn es vor oder nach dem Virus auf die Blätter aufgepinselt wird. Die Versuche lassen vermuten, dass Proflavin sowohl mit dem intakten Virus als auch mit der infektiösen Nukleinsäure eine Verbindung eingeht.     

The effects of seed extracts on local lesion formation byTobacco necrosis virus

Zusammenfassung An Samen vonLactuca sativa, Vicia faba, Phaseolus vulgaris undP. aureus steigerte das Tabaknekrose-Virus Läsionen, hervorgerufen auf den Blättern derP. vulgaris. Zehn andere Samenproben widerstanden hingegen der Läsionsbildung.     

Purification and study of equine infectious anemia virus antigens, produced in vivo or in cultured cells]

The G and C antigens of equine infectious anemia virus have been produced in vivo and in infected cell culture, then they have been purified. Their physico-chemical properties have been determined, particularly their molecular weight, their sedimentation coefficient, their density and the iso electric point.     

Histochemistry of some trout respiratory muscles

Summary A histochemical study has been made of the main cranial muscles which produce ventilation movements of the rainbow trout. It is shown that a greater proportion of red(aerobic) fibres is present in those muscles known to be active during shallow ventilation than those which become active at greater ventilation volumes. An ordered recruitment of red, pink and white fibres within these muscles is also likely.This work was carried out when I.A. Johnston was holding an NERC Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship (1973–75).     

Satellite RNA (RNA3) of tomato black ring virus is found with one of the 2 major RNAs (RNA2) in a new capsid nucleoprotein]

Tomato Black Ring Virus (TBRV) like other NEPOviruses posseses two nucleoproteins M and B and two major RNAs, RNA1 and RNA2 respectively distributed in B and M. A new nucleoprotein has just been discovered and comprises one molecule of RNA2 associated with one molecule of RNA3. RNA3 is a small RNA of molecular weight 500,000 d considered to be a satellite RNA. Its level appears to depend on the infection stage, local or systemic. RNA3 is able to modify the relative proportions of nucleoproteins M and B and their respective RNAs. The satellite RNA, might be part of the genome and represent a monocistronic mRNA for protein capsid synthesis. However it seems perhaps more tempting to correlate TBRV-RNA3 with satellite RNA5 of certain strains of Cucumber mosaic virus.     

Phosphoglucomutase polymorphism in the rainbow trout,Salmo gairdneri

Zusammenfassung Es wird aufgrund von Stärke-Gel-Zymogrammanalysen der Phosphoglukomutase in 72 Forellen (Salmo gairdneri) die Existenz eines polymorphen und zweier nicht variierender Gene ermittelt. Der Polymorphismus beruht auf 2 Allelen mit übereinstimmenden Frequenzen im Hardy-Weinberg-Gleichgewicht.
