    Schoenoplectiella ×trapezoidea (Koidz.) J. Jung & H.K. Choi has been treated as a hybrid between S. hotarui (Ohwi) J. Jung & H.K. Choi and S. triangulata (Roxb.) J. Jung & H.K. Choi or S. juncoides (Roxb.) Lye and S. triangulata. However, we found two morphological types of S. ×trapezoidea in a population of Makinocho, Shiga Pref., Japan. One has slender trigonal to pentagonal culms, shorter spikelets, and high seed fertility (A-type), and the other has thicker irregularly rather sharp tetragonal to pentagonal culms, longer spikelets often twisted at the upper part, and low seed fertility (B-type). We carried out cytological, morphological and reproductive studies of both types of S. ×trapezoidea together with its presumed parent species, S. hotarui, S. juncoides and S. triangulata, from the populations and nearby fallow field. Chromosome number of S. hotarui, S. triangulata, and A-type with 2n = 42, B-type with 2n = 58 and S. juncoides with 2n = 74 were found. A-type is mainly growing between S. hotarui and S. triangulata in the population and showed intermediate morphology between them so, A-type is not inconsistent with a hybrid between S. hotarui and S. triangulate. A-type also showed lower pollen stainability and seed fertility than parental species, which might support the hybrid origin of A-type. Meanwhile, B-type (2n = 58) well showed intermediate chromosome number and morphology between S. trapezoidea (2n = 42) and S. juncoides (2n = 74). Moreover, as B type showed many monovalents and heteromorphic trivalents in meiosis configurations, low pollen stainability and seed fertility, it is highly possible that B-type is a hybrid between S. juncoides and S. triangulata. The examination of the type specimens showed that the name S. trapezoidea should be retained for ‘S. trapezoidea (A type)’, a hybrid ‘S. hotarui × S. triangulata’ although we could not clearly show that this plant is really a hybrid in the present study. For ‘S. trapezoidea (B type)’, we proposed a name Schoenoplectiella ×yashiroi J. Oda & Nagam., hybr. nov. for a hybrid S. juncoides × S. triangulata

    Etiological factors in primary hepatic B-cell lymphoma

    Sixty-four cases of malignant lymphoma involving the liver were examined. Of these, 20 cases were histologically confirmed to be primary hepatic B-cell lymphoma. Twelve of these 20 cases were diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and eight cases were mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Of the 12 cases of DLBCL, six were immunohistologically positive for CD10 and/or Bcl6 (indicating a germinal center phenotype), six were positive for Bcl2, and five were positive for CD25. Eight of the 12 DLBCL cases (66.7%) and two of the eight MALT lymphoma cases (25%) had serum anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibodies and HCV RNA. The incidence of HCV infection was significantly higher in the hepatic DLBCL cases than in systemic intravascular large B-cell cases with liver involvement (one of 11 cases, 9.1%) and T/NK-cell lymphoma cases (one of 19 cases, 5.3%) (p < 0.01 for both). Two hepatic DLBCL cases (16.7%) had rheumatoid arthritis treated with methotrexate, and four MALT lymphoma cases (50%) had Sjögren’s syndrome, primary biliary cirrhosis, or autoimmune hepatitis; one case in each of these two groups was complicated by chronic HCV-seropositive hepatitis. Although primary hepatic lymphoma is rare, persistent inflammatory processes associated with HCV infection or autoimmune disease may play independent roles in the lymphomagenesis of hepatic B cells
