It is well-known that polyphenolic compounds are found abundantly in fruit, but various kinds of diseases lower these levels. This work measures total polyphenolic content, antioxidant activity and the levels of specific important antioxidants in fruits of the genetically modified (GM) plum variety HoneySweet, trees which were previously inoculated with a range of different virus infections. Th...

Sour cherry cv. Marasca is considered a native Croatian variety with the best fruit quality in Northern Dalmatia region. The current production not sufficient to cover demand, therefore new orchards should be established pathogen-tested planting material. To select virus- and bacteria-free mother trees, survey was conducted largest plantation "Vlačine". ELISA on 205 trees (51 elite, 103 average...

In 2006 and 2007, elevated numbers of deaths among seals, constituting an unusual mortality event, occurred off the coasts of Maine and Massachusetts, United States. We isolated a virus from seal tissue and confirmed it as phocine distemper virus (PDV). We compared the viral hemagglutinin, phosphoprotein, and fusion (F) and matrix (M) protein gene sequences with those of viruses from the 1988 a...
