Draft Genomic Sequences of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens CBMAI 1301 and Bacillus subtilis CBMAI 1302, Strains with Potential for the Biocontrol of Phytopathogens.

Here, we report the draft genomic sequences of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain CBMAI 1301, isolated from soybean seeds, and Bacillus subtilis strain CBMAI 1302, isolated from soil. These strains have potential applications for the biological control of phytopathogens, and the sequencing of these two genomes could greatly benefit soybean cultivation.

Closed Genome Sequence of Phytopathogen Biocontrol Agent Bacillus velezensis Strain AGVL-005, Isolated from Soybean.

We report here the closed and near-complete genome sequence and annotation of Bacillus velezensis strain AGVL-005, a bacterium isolated from soybean seeds in Brazil and used for phytopathogen biocontrol.

Chronic calcified subdural hematoma: Case report and review of the literature.

BACKGROUND: Calcified chronic subdural hematoma is a rare but known entity, estimated to represent 0.3-2.7% of chronic subdural hematomas. Although surgical treatment is unanimous for chronic subdural hematomas, therein lies some doubt on it being applied to calcified chronic subdural hematomas. CASE DESCRIPTION: We report a case of a 73-year-old male, presenting with deterioration of motor function in his right limbs since 18 months, with computed tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) documenting a large subdural collection of the left hemisphere, with calcified inner membrane, which was successfully and completely removed, with progressive clinical and radiological improvement. CONCLUSIONS: We report a case where this type of rare lesion was removed with a progressive and complete resolution of the patient's symptoms, restoring his previous neurological condition. From the cases described in the literature and our own experience with this case, we think surgical treatment in these patients, when symptomatic, is necessary and viable, frequently resulting in the patient's improvement.

Patogenicidade in vitro de Monacrosporium robustum a Rotylenchulus reniformis / In vitro pathogenicity of Monacrosporium robustum to Rotylenchulus reniformis

O nematóide reniforme (Rotylenchulus reniformis) é um importante patógeno de importantes culturas brasileiras, tais como soja, algodão, feijão, caupi, maracujazeiro, mamoeiro, tomate e alface, entre outras. Dentre os fungos nematófagos com potencial de utilização comercial como agentes do controle biológico de nematóides, destacam-se espécies do gênero Monacrosporium. No presente estudo, avaliou-se, in vitro, a capacidade predatória e de parasitismo de Monacrosporium robustum ao nematóide reniforme. Em períodos de 24, 48 e 72 horas após, constatou-se que a percentagem de predação do nematóide pelo fungo foi de, respectivamente, 81,3, 99,9 e 100.
