Accumulation of Polyhydroxy Alcohols by Hansenula anomala in Response to Water Stress

A Case of Fungal Arthritis Caused by Hansenula Anomala

Hansenula anomala (H. anomaly) is part of the normal flora in the alimentary tract and throat. It has been reported to be an organism causing opportunistic infections in immunocompromised patients. However, cases of fungal arthritis caused by H. anomala are rare. We encountered a case of H. anomala arthritis in a 70-year-old man who was treated with an empirical antibiotic treatment and surgery...

Pyridine nucleotidenitrate reductase from Hansenula anomala a nitrate reducing yeast.

The recent elucidation of the enzyme systems involved in nitrate reduction in Neurospora crassa (Evans and Nason, 1952; Nason and Evans, 1953); Bacillus pumilis (Taniguchi et al., 1953); Escherichia coli (Taniguchi et al., 1956; Nicholas and Nason, 1955) and higher plants (Evans and Nason, 1953), has renewed interest in the general problem of nitrate reduction and nitrate assimilation in microo...

Hansenula anomala infections in children: from asymptomatic colonization to tissue invasion.

Genetic Analysis of Response to Water Deficit Stress Based on Physiological Traits in Wheat

Dehydration is the most important limiting factor in agricultural production in arid and semi-arid regions, and water shortages (especially at the reproductive stages) due to lack of precipitation and unequal distribution are inappropriate for limiting the yield. In this research, cross between the Gasspard cultivar (dehydrated susceptible parent) and DN11 line (resistant parent) was performed....

Maize response to water, salinity and nitrogen levels: soil and plant ions accumulation

In the present study, some nutritional imbalances, specific ion toxicity and yield-ion concentration relationships in maize under water, nitrogen (N) and salinity stresses were assessed. Effect of different levels of irrigation water (I1=1.0ETc+0.25ETc as leaching, I2 =0.75I1 and I3 =0.5I1) as main plot, salinity of irrigation water (S1=0.6, S2= 2.0 and S3=4.0 dS m-1) as sub-plot and N fertiliz...
