Publications Lethbridge Research Centre Report: New disease "pink pea" threatens expanding Prairie field pea acreage Lethbridge, Alta, April 10, 2002: A new disease threat has emerged for the rapidly growing Prairie field pea industry. Pink pea, a disease caused by the bacterial pathogen Erwinia rhapontici , results in weaker plants with reduced seed yield and quality, says Dr. Henry Huang of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada's Lethbridge Research Centre, whose team was the first to identify the pathogen in the late 1980s. "We first noticed the disease in southern Alberta, but it has since been found in Saskatchewan and Montana," says Huang, a forage and field crops pathologist. "The disease is becoming more common in pea samples from seed cleaning plants." It's unclear what impact pink pea may have on the industry - little is known about the disease and this is a major challenge to risk assessment and control, he says. The Lethbridge Research Centre is helping fill the knowledge gap with studies supported by the Alberta Pulse Growers Commission and the Saskatchewan Pulse Crop Development Board. In the meantime, Huang urges producers to use clean pea seed for planting. "The use of clean pea seed will be a critical factor in preventing establishment and build-up of the pink seed pathogen in the western Prairies."

Extractions: Lyme Disease in horses What is Lyme disease? Lyme disease is a bacterial illness caused by the spirochetal (corkscrew shaped) bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi. It is most commonly transmitted by the bite of infected Ixodes spp ticks, commonly referred to as "deer ticks" or "black legged ticks". Not all Ixodes spp ticks are infected with Borrelia burgdorferi. In areas highly endemic for Lyme disease, such as the northeastern and mid-Atlantic USA, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and northern California, a greater proportion of ticks will likely be infected than in areas where Lyme disease is less common. How do horses become infected with Borrelia burgdorferi? Horses living in Lyme disease endemic regions may become infected with Borrelia burgdorferi via the bite of infected Ixodes species ticks. The adult ticks, which are present in the fall and early spring, are the stage most likely to feed on horses. This stage of tick is usually large enough to be detected during grooming; the ticks are often found around the head, throatlatch area, belly, and under the tail. Removal of the tick can be accomplished by grasping the mouth parts of tick adjacent to the skin with tweezers and pulling gently back. Prompt removal of the tick minimizes risk of Borrelia burgdorferi transmission. What are the clinical signs of Lyme disease in horses? Clinical signs (symptoms) of Lyme disease appear in less than 10 % of horses that are infected with Borrelia burgdorferi. The most common symptoms are lameness and behavioral changes. The lameness is usually associated with larger joints (not the foot), and frequently shifts from limb to limb. The horse may appear to have a generalized stiffness. Fever may or may not be present. Occasionally, laminitis (an inflammation of the tissues inside the hoof wall) has been associated with Lyme disease. Behavioral changes associated with Lyme disease are difficult to categorize. As well as an unwillingness to work (which may be associated with musculoskeletal pain), owners frequently observe increased irritability and a changed attitude in these horses, which quickly return to normal following treatment.

Extractions: Microdochium patch was first, and is still commonly referred to as pink snow mold. The name was later changed to Fusarium Patch (cited in references into the mid 1990's) and finally to Microdochium patch when the classification and name of the causal organism was changed. It is the most common cool season, or low temperature, disease in North America, northern and western Europe, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. The causal organism is Microdochium nivale (Fr.) Samuels and Hallett (teleomorph: Monographella nivalis (Schaf) E. Muller). The old name of the fungus, Fusarium nivale (Fr.) Ces. is listed as a synonym. Turfgrass hosts of the pathogen include bluegrass ( Poa spp.), bentgrass ( Agrostis spp.), bermudagrass ( Cynodon dactylon ), fescue ( Festuca spp.), and perennial ryegrass ( Lollium perenne ). Among these hosts the disease is most severe on annual bluegrass and bentgrass. The pathogen is also able to infect a number of native grasses and cereals. Microdochium nivale survives unfavorable conditions (in this case warm, dry weather) as dormant mycelium in infected plants and debris. Fungal activity is optimal under moist conditions when temperatures range between 32-50 o F. These temperatures commonly occur in the Great Plains between October and April. While the optimum temperatures are relatively cold, the fungus may remain active at temperatures as high as 68

Extractions: tuber rot often starting at the stem-base, with browning on the surface and inside; the pink-coloured affected areas are separated from the healthy areas by a blackish line. The tissues become elastic but retain their consistency, unlike bacterial rot. On the cut surface, the pink areas turn brown in one hour.

Extractions: Law Centers Encyclopedia Employment Law ... Privacy Genetic testing was first labeled an advancement, allowing us to improve preventative medicine. Now it's being used in workplaces to label employees and some call that a violation of privacy. When it first became possible to test for the genetic risks of isolated diseases, the advance was widely hailed as a modern medical near-miracle, sure to improve preventative healthcare and treatment. People with the potential risk of contracting inherited conditions such as breast cancer, colon cancer and Huntington disease now commonly undergo genetic testing to gauge their chances. As of April 1999, more than 550 genetic tests were being used to diagnose disease. But the powerful information can also pose a triple-edged threat to tested workers' jobs, health insurance and privacy.

Extractions: D. The Treatment of Gum Disease The treatment of gum disease varies depending on the degree of involvement with the disease. When you consider that a pregnant woman presents a different group of considerations from what a non-pregnant patient presents, it is best that the pregnant patient see a periodontist in order to thoroughly evaluate the complexities of the case. The following is an overview of the treatment for gum disease 1. What is normal? Normal healthy gums are usually described as "coral pink" in color and usually fit to a nice sharp point as they approach where the teeth come together and contact. The healthy gums have a "pebble grain" appearance which is called "stippling" . When gums become diseased, they : a. change in color from coral pink to a more reddish color b. change in form from a nice sharp tapered form to a swollen less tapered form c. lose their appearance of stippling and become shiny as well as reddened Please remember from C. The Cause of Gum Disease , when the gums are infected they detach from the teeth and form the probing depths that are deeper than 3 millimeters. The following case types will show probing being done and you will see the silver periodontal probe. Healthy gums look healthy and probing in the "ditch" or "sulcus" only goes to a depth of 1-3 millimeters. Diseased gums show changes in color, form and texture and show a probing depth deeper than 3 millimeters. Healthy Gums
