Triphysaria is a facultative root parasite in the Scrophulariaceae family. Similar to other related parasites, the development of the parasitic life cycle is initiated by molecular signals released from appropriate host roots. Using a differential display, we isolated cDNAs preferentially abundant in T. versicolor roots exposed to Trifolium repens (white clover) root exudates in vitro. Sequence...

The objectives of this study were to investigate the frequency of pityriasis versicolor occurrence and to identify yeasts of the genus Malassezia in patients at the mycology laboratory of the Federal University of Goiás, in Goiânia, State of Goiás. Ninety-five cases of pityriasis versicolor were diagnosed, and four species of Malassezia were identified: Malassezia furfur, Malassezia sympodialis...

introduction rosacea is a chronic skin disease affecting the facial area. the causative agents are unknown. demodex mites can cause rosacea in human beings. case presentation in this article five cases of rosacea due to demodex folliculorum are reported. the first case was a 26-year-old male wrestler. the second case was a 4-year-old-boy with immunodeficiency syndrome, the third case was a 29-y...

The co-culture of Trametes versicolor and Ganoderma applanatum is a model of intense basidiomycete interaction, which induces many newly synthesized or highly produced features. Currently, one of the major challenges is an identification of the origin of induced features during the co-culture. Herein, we report a 13C-dynamic labeling analysis used to determine an association of induced features...

In [7] Pillay described the model-theoretic significance of a result in complex analytic geometry due to Campana [1] and Fujiki [2]. These notes are an exposition of the “jet space” constructions that underly the Campana/Fujiki theorem. In particular, we discuss infinitesimal neighbourhoods as well as the sheaves of principal parts, jets, and differential operators. The material is drawn largel...

Increased temperature and sweating are considered factors predisposing to pityriasis versicolor. In this case report, sparing of the vaults of the axillae which are naturally occluded and sweaty areas, in a patient with widespread lesions of pityriasis versicolor is discussed. It is the second observation in this regard and further contributions are invited.

Epidermodysplasia verruciformis is a rare inherited skin disorder spread by HPV, with cases linked to chromosome X. It is characterized by hypo- or hyper-pigmented macular lesions, pityriasis versicolor-like lesions and an early tendency to develop skin malignancies. We present a case of epidermodysplasia verruciformis with a variety of lesions such as multiple plane warts, pityriasis versicolo...

Sterigmatocystin (7.75 micrograms/g of feed) and a high-propagule-density of Aspergillus versicolor were detected in feed associated with acute clinical symptoms of bloody diarrhea and death in dairy cattle. Nine isolates of A. versicolor from the feed produced 13 to 89 micrograms of sterigmatocystin per g on cracked corn and lower amounts in liquid culture. This is the first report of sterigma...

Schellackia calotesi n. sp. is described from the Thai agamids Calotes mystaceus and C. versicolor. Schellackia-type sporozoites were recovered from blood and liver of one C. versicolor from Kon Kaen North-East Thailand and two C. mystaceus from Chiang Mai, North Thailand. Specimens of both species were fed on sporozoite infected blood, of these only one C. mystaceus developed endogenous infect...
