We isolated and identified 12 Foc strains based on internal transcribed spacer(ITS) sequence analysis, PCR amplification by using Foc-specific primers and pathogenicity assays.Our analysis indicated that 11 isolates belong to Foc race 1, and 1 isolate belongs to the Foc tropical species race 4(TR4).Although TR4 has previously been reported to occur in primary banana-producing provinces, such as Hainan, Guangxi,and Guangdong of China, this is the first report of TR4 isolated from the soil in Fujian Province. Monitoring the presence of Foc, in particular, the TR4 strains in the soil, is the basic strategy to prevent and control Fusarium wilt.展开更多

The efficiencyand reliability of PCR method were compared with dot immunobinding assay (DIA) andclassical pathogenicity test techniques for detecting suspensions of pure cells of Xacand soaking sap of citrus tissues. Detection sensitivity of PCR was about 4.5 cells or1.56 pg target DNA per reaction which was higher than that of DIA (ca. 450 cells per dot).These three techniques (PCR assay, DIA and Pathogenecity test) could always detect Xacfrom symptomatic citrus samples. Different performances were obtained from citrusmaterials without symptoms, and the positive detection frequency was PCR, DIA andpathogenicity test.展开更多

One Gram-positive Streptococcus was isolated. The strain was subjected to characteristic culture, microscopic examination and molecular biological identification, and resistance detection, animal regression experiment and mouse pathogenicity test were carried out. The results showed that the isolate was identified to be Streptococcus suis serotype 7, which was resistant to multiple drugs; and the pathogenicity test showed that the strain had high pathogenicity to pigs, resulting in neurosis on partial pigs, and the strain had no pathogenicity to Kunming and BALB/c mice but certain pathogenicity to CD1 mice.展开更多

Epidemiologic investigations have identified dairy cows, especially calves, are the principal reservoir of E. coli O157 : H7. In this study, based on the results, E. coli O157 : H7 was the main cause of E. coli disease outbreak in late October, 2015, and more than 90% of newborn calves died of serious diarrhea. Through further experiments, the drug sensitivity and resistance of the strain, the expression of the virulence gene and virulence pathogenicity were studied. E. coli O157 : H7 isolates were resistant to 12 antibiotics including penicillin, tetracycline and ampicillin, and were sensitive to eight antibiotics including cefoperazone, ceftazidime and amikacin. Resistance genes included tetB, strB, aadB, aphA, floR, TEM and virulence genes included stx1, eaeA and hlyA. Using specific pathogen free mice, the result showed that the isolate was pathogenic with a median lethal dose of 7.9×107 CFU · mL-1. This study described the pathogenesis and clinical manifestations of E. coli O157 : H7 infection. These results guided the use of antibiotics in prevent and control of bacterial infections in the future.展开更多
