    Development and evaluation of real time RT-PCR assays for detection and typing of Bluetongue virus

    Bluetongue virus is the type species of the genus Orbivirus, family Reoviridae. Bluetongue viruses (BTV) are transmitted between their vertebrate hosts primarily by biting midges (Culicoides spp.) in which they also replicate. Consequently BTV distribution is dependent on the activity, geographic distribution, and seasonal abundance of Culicoides spp. The virus can also be transmitted vertically in vertebrate hosts, and some strains/serotypes can be transmitted horizontally in the absence of insect vectors. The BTV genome is composed of ten linear segments of double-stranded (ds) RNA, numbered in order of decreasing size (Seg-1 to Seg-10). Genome segment 2 (Seg-2) encodes outer-capsid protein VP2, the most variable BTV protein and the primary target for neutralising antibodies. Consequently VP2 (and Seg-2) determine the identity of the twenty seven serotypes and two additional putative BTV serotypes that have been recognised so far. Current BTV vaccines are serotype specific and typing of outbreak strains is required in order to deploy appropriate vaccines. We report development and evaluation of multiple ‘TaqMan’ fluorescence-probe based quantitative real-time type-specific RT-PCR assays targeting Seg-2 of the 27+1 BTV types. The assays were evaluated using orbivirus isolates from the ‘Orbivirus Reference Collection’ (ORC) held at The Pirbright Institute. The assays are BTV-type specific and can be used for rapid, sensitive and reliable detection / identification (typing) of BTV RNA from samples of infected blood, tissues, homogenised Culicoides, or tissue culture supernatants. None of the assays amplified cDNAs from closely related but heterologous orbiviruses, or from uninfected host animals or cell cultures

    Attitudes des Ă©lĂšves francophones de 6e, 9e et 12e annĂ©es des Provinces maritimes Ă  l’égard de la lecture en milieu scolaire

    Les Ă©lĂšves francophones de 6e, 9e et 12e annĂ©es des Provinces maritimes ont rempli un questionnaire portant sur leurs habitudes de lecture et sur leurs attitudes Ă  l’égard de la lecture. Seule la section portant sur les attitudes est analysĂ©e et mesurĂ©e Ă  l’aide de l’échelle de Nybert et Clarke. Des analyses factorielles ont permis d’identifier les facteurs d’apprĂ©ciation, d’utilitĂ© et de facilitĂ©. Les rĂ©sultats sont interprĂ©tĂ©s comme reflĂ©tant des attitudes gĂ©nĂ©ralement plus positives chez les filles que chez les garçons Ă  l’égard de la lecture scolaire. Les auteurs suggĂšrent des recherches portant sur les motivations Ă  la lecture.Francophone students from the Maritime provinces attending Grades 6, 9 and 12 responded to a questionnaire which investigated reading habits and attitudes. The Nyberg and Clarke scale was used to examine the attitude section of the questionnaire. A factor analysis identified factors of appreciation, usefulness, and ease. Interpretation of the study's results portrays girls' attitude to school reading as more positive than that of the boys studied. The authors suggest continued research dealing with motivation to read.Los alumnos francĂłfonos de 6°, 9° y 12° años de las provincias marĂ­timas completaron un cuestionario referente a sus habilidades de lectura y a sus actitudes con respecto a Ă©sta. SĂłlo la secciĂłn que se refiere a las actitudes es analizada y medida a partir de la escala de Nyberg y Clarke. Los anĂĄlisis factoriales han permitido identificar los factores de apreciaciĂłn, de utilidad y de facilidad. Los resultados son interpretados como si las niñas reflejaran, generalmente, actitudes mĂĄs positivas frente a la lectura escolar que los muchachos. Los autores sugieren algunos estudios que se refieran a la motivaciĂłn a la lectura.Die frankophonen SchĂŒler des 6., 9. und 12. Jahrgangs in den Atlantikprovinzen haben einen Fragebogen ausgefĂŒllt, der von ihren Lesegewohnheiten und von ihrer Einstellung gegenĂŒber der Lekture handelte. Nur der von der Einstellung handelnde Teil wurde analysiert und gemessen, und zwar mit Hilfe der Skala von Nyberg und Clarke. Faktorielle Analysen haben erlaubt, Faktoren der EinschĂ€tzung, der NĂŒtzlichkeit und der Leichtigkeit zu identifizieren. Die Ergebnisse lassen sich in dem Sinn auslegen, dass sie bei den MĂ€dchen eine im allgemeinen positivere Einstellung gegenĂŒber der Lekture wiedergeben als bei den Jungen. Die Autoren schlagen Untersuchungen ĂŒber die Motivation zum Lesen vor

    Jovian 1.2-kHz nonthermal continuum radiation

    No full text
    Nonthermal continuum is observed at 1.2 kHz on Voyagers 1 and 2 within the Jovian magnetosphere. It is seen in the magnetospheric cavity on both the dayside and nightside, being most intense in the magnetotail lobes when Voyagers were above the plasma sheet. In these regions the radiation was distinctly left‐hand polarized. The observations are considered within the context of other plasma waves reported to exist in the Jovian magnetosphere and of analogous emissions observed at earth. Drawing in particular from our knowledge of continuum source regions within the terrestrial magnetosphere, it is suggested that the most likely main source of the 1.2‐kHz Jovian continuum is the morning/prenoon magnetopause

    The first idea of a magnetic cavity around a planet (the earth) was first postulated by Chapmanand Ferraro already in the early thirties. The interest in studies of such a magnetic cavitywhich is caUed "magnetosphere” was reinforced since the accidentai discovery of the nonthennalJovian decametric radiation (DAM) by Burke and Franklin (1955). However, it was Shainalready in 1950 who first observed a radio Ă©mission at 18.3 MHz, but it was not yet attributedto Jupiter. This radiation indicated that Jupiter exhibits an intrinsic magnetic field, wherebythe radio Ă©mission is caused by Ă©lectrons spiralling around magnetic field Unes in the vicinity ofthe planet, finding confirmed by the discovery of the Jovian decimetric radiation and the earth’sVan Allen belts by the sateĂŒites Explorer 1 and 3 in 1958.no abstrac
