    Notes: Abstract  A-52-year-old patient presented with a 2-year history of multiple myeloma, recurrent episodes of hypercalcemia, and extensive bone involvement. She developed pulmonary infiltrates, initially misdiagnosed as interstitial pneumonia. High-resolution computed tomography and bone scintiscanning indicated pulmonary calcification, which was confirmed by a transbronchial biopsy. Cytostatic treatment of multiple myeloma in combination with repetitive i.v. administration of bisphosphonates over a period of 6 months led to a significant improvement of clinical symptoms. Regression of pulmonary infiltrates was demonstrated by chest radiograph and computed tomography. There are only a few reports on pulmonary calcification in patients with multiple myeloma; the condition was associated mostly with progressive disease, kidney failure, adult respiratory distress syndrome and bad prognosis. In our patient isolated calcification of the lungs without involvement of other organ systems was successfully treated. These findings suggest that interstitial pulmonary calcinosis in multiple myeloma can be reversed by normalization of serum calcium levels using bisphosphonates combined with cytostatic treatment.

    Notes: Summary Common wheat cultivar Virest possesses mildew resistance which is different from resistances expressed by currently documented mildew resistance genes, detected by response to eleven differential wheat powdery mildew isolates. F2 populations from hybrids of the 21 ‘Chinese Spring’ monosomic lines with ‘Virest’ revealed one major dominant gene, located on wheat chromosome 1D. The new gene is designated Pm22. Italian cultivars Elia, Est Mottin, Ovest and Tudest also showed the disease response pattern corresponding to ‘Virest’.
