But scientists have uncovered just the specific strain of this pathogen through a first-of-its kind procedure--by analyzing potato plants that have been dead for more than a hundred years.
In the mid-19th century travel between the New and Old world increased bringing over new strains of Phytophthora infestans.
One of those strains eventually mutated into a killer. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology took dried plants some from as far back as 170 years ago
Previously it was assumed that a strain known as US-1 was responsible for The irish Potato Famine but this research found that the strain on these dried potato plants is not in fact US-1. It's related
but genetically unique and US-1 was more likely to be the strain that replaced the culprit after it was eliminated.
They've named the new strain HERB-1. This is the first time that scientists have decoded the genome of a plant pathogen from dried plants
and the researchers say that the study holds promise for the future. These findings will greatly help us to understand the dynamics of emerging pathogens one of the researchers says.

The resulting material was both more flexible and able to handle higher amounts of stress than conventionally made steel.
Structural steel should be able to handle a lot of stress but it should also bend a little

The gradient helps them deal with stresses such as weather and wearing. The China-U s. team published their steel gradient findings in two papers in the journals Materials Research Letters and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

You have a lot of strains that are silent and then you have these exotic strains that can cause very severe disease says Saeij the Robert A. Swanson Career Development Associate professor of Life sciences.
The goal of the project was to see how different are these South american strains compared to strains that are really prevalent in North america and Europe.
Toxoplasma spores are found in dirt and easily infect farm animals such as cows sheep pigs and chickens.
The strains that circulate most commonly in North america and Europe usually cause problems only in people with suppressed immune systems such as AIDS patients
or transplant recipients although some atypical North american and European strains have been associated with severe ocular toxoplasmosis.
and colleagues infected mouse immune cells known as macrophages with each of the 29 strains they had collected representing global diversity.
Most strikingly some South american and some atypical North american strains induced a type of immune reaction usually only seen during viral infection known as the type 1 interferon response.
which the researchers suspect may be causing the severe effects produced by those strains. Paradoxically the parasite only sets off this immune response after the host cell has killed it spilling the parasite's DNA and RNA into the cell.
However we believe that different strains may have evolved to be able to maintain and reproduce optimally in a specific niche in nature
which may explain why different strains of Toxoplasma have such varying effects in different organisms.
She notes that a strain adapted to long-term survival in rats may cause a fatal infection in mice
which includes gene expression profiles for all 29 strains into a publicly available database for other researchers to use

When studying the adaptation mechanisms to against salt stress researchers found that several gene families likely to be involved in tolerance to salt stress contain significantly more gene copies in the P. euphratica lineage.
They also compared the P. euphratica in response to salt stress with salt-sensitive poplar (P. tomentosa)
and homeostasis such as Nhad1 KUP3 and NCL were distinctly upregulated under salt stress. The complete genome sequencing of desert poplar revealed the underlying genetic mechanisms of poplar to against salt stress laying a solid foundation for accelerating the genetic breeding of cultivated poplars for saline and desert fields. said Junyi

performed differently in people who suffer from autism spectrum disorder than in those who do not.
Autism spectrum disorder and autism are general terms for a group of complex disorders of brain development that affect social interactions communication skills and behaviors.
Many studies have found that people who have autism fail to focus on the eye region of others to gather social cues
and analyzed in patients with autism. Researchers in Cedars-Sinai's Department of Neurosurgery and Department of Neurology with colleagues from the California Institute of technology and Huntington Memorial Hospital in Pasadena listened in
and recorded the firing activity of individual nerve cells in the amygdalae of two patients with a high-functioning form of autism as they viewed pictures of entire faces or parts of faces on a screen.
The research team then compared recordings from neurons in the patients with autism to recordings from neurons in patients who did not have led autism
which to the discovery that a specific type of neuron performed atypically in those with autism.
In the two patients with autism whole-face neurons responded appropriately but the face-part neurons were much more active
A subpopulation of neurons in these patients with autism spectrum disorder showed abnormal sensitivity to the mouth region.
Thus the subset of face-part-sensitive neurons was specifically abnormal in autism Rutishauser said.
The article's senior author Ralph Adolphs Phd Bren Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Caltech said the study presents new insights into mechanisms underlying the symptoms of autism
but this study points us in a specific direction that we believe will help understand autism he said.
Progress in finding answers for autism has been limited because no animal model exists for the highly complex human disorder.
The autism study was made possible by patients being treated for epilepsy who underwent surgery to have implanted depth electrodes in their brains to monitor seizure-related electrical activity.
Two of the patients also suffered from a high-functioning form of autism spectrum disorder. The amygdala is a routine target for depth electrodes to localize epileptic seizures.
and suspected to be abnormal in autism. However until our recent discovery it was unknown
Rutishauser Adolphs and their colleagues published several recent articles on face recognition that led up to this research on autism.

Part of the problem according to researchers at Wake Forest Baptist Medical center is that medical schools don't include meditation and stress-reduction training in their curriculum.
However for the past three years all third-year students at Wake Forest Baptist have been provided guided relaxation and mindfulness meditation training known as Applied Relaxation and Applied Mindfulness (ARAM) thanks to a grant
This level of distress and strain can have a significant influence on the quality of care that doctors provide.
and relaxation techniques can help moderate the influence of stress Mccann said. In every stress-management program either mindfulness
or relaxation is included always to decrease both the mental and physical wear and tear caused by stress.
The goal of the Wake Forest Baptist training was threefold: to help familiarize future doctors with techniques recommended in many medical treatment plans for patients;
and to enhance performance by improving working memory and empathy and by moderating performance anxiety. The ARAM training was composed of three sessions integrated into the third-year family medicine clerkship.
The rate of burnout among doctors is sobering and every medical school needs to include stress-management training in their curriculums.
