    Abstract Dollar spot of amenity turf, caused by Sclerotinia homoeocarpa, occurs in two seasonal epidemics in the northern United States, one from May to late July and a second from mid-August through October. It is not known whether these seasonal epidemics are the result of multiple species or due to seasonal variation within a single species. Isolates of S. homoeocarpa were collected from dollar spot lesions obtained from golf courses in Michigan, Illinois, and Wisconsin. Vegetative compatibility reactions between isolates identified six vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) among more than 1,300 isolates collected from the eight locations. Most VCGs were present throughout the season, but one was generally recovered only in the late epidemic. Sequences of the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) were identical among VCGs, indicating that the VCGs represent a single species. The results of this study suggest that the seasonal dollar spot epidemics observed in the northern United States are caused by a single species.

    Abstract Antifungal extracts from four strains of bacteria that were selected for their ability to inhibit fungal turfgrass pathogens were compared for in vitro activity. The cell extract from Pseudomonas aureofaciens Tx-1 (ATCC 55670) exhibited the greatest antifungal activity against selected turfgrass pathogens. Purification of the extract yielded a single active component that was identified as phenazine-1 carboxylic acid (PCA). Minimum inhibitory concentrations of PCA to tested fungal pathogens ranged from 10 to 25 µg/ml. In greenhouse studies, PCA provided management of dollar spot on creeping bentgrass equal to that of the commercial fungicides triadimefon and chlorothalonil at equivalent rates of active ingredient. Phytotoxic effects were observed on creeping bentgrass in greenhouse but not field evaluations of PCA at the rate of 0.48 g/m

    Abstract Piscine orthoreovirus (PRV-1) is a segmented RNA virus, which is commonly found in salmonids in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. PRV-1 causes the heart and skeletal muscle inflammation disease in Atlantic salmon and is associated with several other disease conditions. Previous phylogenetic studies of genome segment 1 (S1) identified four main genogroups of PRV-1 (S1 genogroups I-IV). The goal of the present study was to use Bayesian phylogenetic inference to expand our understanding of the spatial, temporal, and host patterns of PRV-1 from the waters of the northeast Pacific. To that end, we determined the coding genome sequences of fourteen PRV-1 samples that were selected to improve our knowledge of genetic diversity across a broader temporal, geographic, and host range, including the first reported genome sequences from the northwest Atlantic (Eastern Canada). Nucleotide and amino acid sequences of the concatenated genomes and their individual segments revealed that established sequences from the northeast Pacific were monophyletic in all analyses. Bayesian inference phylogenetic trees of S1 sequences using BEAST and MrBayes also found that sequences from the northeast Pacific grouped separately from sequences from other areas. One PRV-1 sample (WCAN_BC17_AS_2017) from an escaped Atlantic salmon, collected in British Columbia but derived from Icelandic broodstock, grouped with other S1 sequences from Iceland. Our concatenated genome and S1 analysis demonstrated that PRV-1 from the northeast Pacific is genetically distinct but descended from PRV-1 from the North Atlantic. However, the analyses were inconclusive as to the timing and exact source of introduction into the northeast Pacific, either from eastern North America or from European waters of the North Atlantic. There was no evidence that PRV-1 was evolving differently between free-ranging Pacific Salmon and farmed Atlantic Salmon. The northeast Pacific PRV-1 sequences fall within genogroup II based on the classification of Garseth, Ekrem, and Biering (Garseth, A. H., Ekrem, T., and Biering, E.

    Abstract Vulnerability to depression has been linked to the interaction of genetic predisposition with stressful life events. This review considers the associations between serotonergic and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) systems. We follow the standpoint of a previous Editorial Review (Bhagwagar & Cowen, Psychological Medicine 2008, 38, 307-313) and consider another possible mechanism of vulnerability to depressive disorder, that is we suggest that the gene x environment interaction involves complex participation of serotonergic genes modulating response to stress through the HPA system.

    Abstract Turner (1985b) and Greenberg et al. (1986) proposed that New World populations originated in northern Asia and entered the Americas in three migratory waves: Macro-Indian, Aleut-Eskimo, and Na-Dene. Biological support for this model comes from Turner's unweighted pair group (UPGMA) cluster analysis of discrete dental traits in world populations. Unfortunately, UPGMA analysis often creates suspect clusters and may not be valid as a method for displaying evolutionary relationships because it assumes that rates of evolution are equal among all populations. To test whether Turner's results are an artifact of his analytical method, I analyzed his published data (Turner 1985b) using two alternative techniques that do not assume homogeneous rates of change: a Wagner distance algorithm employing the Fitch-Margoliash criterion for goodness of fit and a maximum parsimony analysis using segment-coded dental trait frequencies. Both alternative methods produce trees that are similar to the UPGMA analysis results, supporting Turner's original results and basic conclusions. Comparisons of tree topology demonstrate that there is strong congruence between trees produced by all three methods, although the placement of certain populations, such as Na-Dene, depends on the method of analysis employed.
