    Has modern management improved the outcome of infants with intracranial tumours? (1990)

    Notes: Abstract Records of 92 children were reviewed who, in the first 18 months of life had an intracranial tumour, and who were registered with the Manchester Children's Tumour Registry during the 34-year period from 1953 to 1987. The incidence of intracranial tumour was 1 in 25000 live births, and 85% of the tumours were malignant. The introduction of computed tomography (CT) in the region in 1976 improved the diagnostic accuracy and led to early diagnosis. This also coincided with refined radiotherapy and improved chemotherapy. The surgical attitude became more aggressive, and with early treatment, mortality was reduced, though the 1-month operative mortality still remains high at 15%. All survivors were available for follow-up. All children with axial tumours died within 9 years. Long-term follow-up did not suggest significant improvement in the overall survival or in the quality of life, though there was a significant improvement in the 5-year survival rate with modern management.

    A rapid technique for assessing the resistance of families of potato seedlings to potato leaf roll virus (1980)

    Notes: Summary A technique is described by which families of potato seedlings can be rapidly screened for resistance to potato leaf roll virus (PLRV) in the greenhouse with a minimum expenditure of labour and bench space. Seed of different families was sown in rows in four replicated blocks and the seedlings produced were exposed to viruliferousMyzus persicae when very young. Symptoms resembling those typical of secondary infection with PLRV developed within a few weks and families with few affected seedlings compared with the susceptible control were classed as resistant. Tests done at different times with similar sets of families gave similar results. Applying infectiveM. persicae by shaking heavily colonised potato shoots above the seedlings was more effective and far less time consuming than transferring them individually by hand using a fine paint brush.

    High salt tolerance potential in Lycopersicon species during germination (1986)
    Springer
    Euphytica 35 (1986), S. 575-582 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-5060
    Keywords: Lycopersicon ; tomato ; salinity ; germination ; germplasm ; breeding ; salt-tolerance

    Notes: Summary The potential to improve seed germination responses to salinity was evaluated for 13 accessions representing six wild Lycopersicon species and 20 accessions of L. esculentum. Germination response times increased in all accessions at 100 mM NaCl. Analysis indicated that one accession of L. peruvianum (PI126435) germinated faster under high salinity than all other accessions and was closely followed by L. pennellii (LA716). The fastest germinating L. esculentum accession, PI174263, ranked third. Additional wild ecotypes exhibiting rapid germination at 100 mM NaCl were identified among L. pimpinellifolium and L. peruvianum.
