Published: October 2016

Sorghum grains are mostly used for the roti preparation. The M 35-1 (Maldhandi) a sorghum cultivar is known for its good quality of roti due to having pearly white grain color, its flour having higher water holding capacity, and good organoleptic taste. However, this cultivar is low yielder. To evolve sorghum high yielding genotype coupled with this good roti qualities, systematic breeding program was planned and executed to overcome this problem. Twenty local land races, 92 genotypes, and seven improved cultivars of sorghum along with check M 35-1 were studied for various nutritional quality parameters, with special reference to the roti quality. Considering nutritional quality and organoleptic evaluation parameters studied for roti quality, the local land races viz., RSLG 428-1, RSLG 1238, RSLG 1275 and the genotypes viz., RSV 290, RSV 292, RSV 858, RSV 859, RSV 861, RSV 868, RSV 894, RSV 985, RSV 992, RSV 995, RSV 999 were found to be promising for protein, sugar, water absorption, and soluble protein content. Therefore, they can be used for further improvement in nutritional quality through breeding program. Among the improved cultivars, Phule Vasudha (RSV 423), CSV 22, and Phule Chitra (SPV 1546) were
found to be most promising for roti quality. The maximum score for overall acceptability was found for Phule Vasudha followed by Phule Anuradha (RSV 458), Phule Yeshoda (RSLG 262), and Phule Maulee (CSV 216).

Published: October 2016

Study on cryopreservation of Indonesian local cultivars and improved  varieties of maize and soybean has never been done. This method may be used for long-term preservation of seeds of maize and soybean. In this study, the method was applied to maize and soybean, Arjuna and Wilis respectively, as a model for preserving germplasm of ortodox seeds. Whole seeds and excised embryos of both varieties were subjected to two methods of cryopreservation, i.e., two-stage cooling and rapid freezing with or without 15% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as cryoprotectant solution prior to immersion in liquid nitrogen (-196oC). Results indicated that there was no significant difference between the use of DMSO for both species in terms of viability, although pretreatment in DMSO was slightly reduced the percentage of viability of both species. Slow freezing to -30oC prior to immersion in the liquid nitrogen could give as high as 76.67% and 51.67% surviving whole seeds of maize and soybean, respectively. Preserving excised embryos of maize in the liquid nitrogen using either slow or rapid freezing significantly reduced the percentage of viability from 20-76.67% to 5-18.33% (four folds) depending on treatments applied. Results also showed that one day or 15 minutes of immersion of samples in the liquid nitrogen gave rise to similar values of viability of maize and soybean, i.e., 20-60% and 20-51.67%, respectively depending on  treatments applied. These results implied that for long-term storage of maize and soybean seeds as they could survive at the rate of 76.67% and 51.67% respectively, the seed can be treated by prefreezing to -30oC
without the presence of DMSO prior to immersion in liquid nitrogen.

Published: October 2016

Mosaic disease of maize and grasses is commonly found in Sulawesi. The symptoms resemble the common mosaic symptoms of virus infection, but the pathogen has not been identified. The objective of this study was to identify the causal agent of the mosaic disease of maize and grasses in Sulawesi. Transmissions of the virus were studied by mechanical inoculation and the insect vector aphid. Serological study was done by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results of mechanical inoculation showed that the disease was caused by a virus which was transmitted from diseased maize and grasses to healthy sweet corn seedlings. The disease was also transmitted by aphid (Rhopalosiphum maidis). Serological study indicated that the virus was closely related to the sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV). Based on these results, it can be concluded that the maize and grass mosaic disease was caused by SCMV.
SCREENING OF SOIL BACTERIA FOR PLANT GROWTH PROMOTION ACTIVITIES IN VITRO
Authors: Husen Edi
Published: October 2016

Fourteen isolates of soil bacteria, including two known plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) strains, Azotobacter vinelandii Mac 259 and Bacillus cereus UW 85, were tested in vitro. Parameters assessed were indoleacetic acid (IAA) production, phosphate solubilization, dinitrogen fixation, and siderophore (Fe-III chelating agent) production. IAA production was assayed colorimetrically using ferric chlorideperchloric acid reagent. Phosphate-solubilization and siderophore production were tested qualitatively by plating the bacteria in Pikovskaya and chrome azurol S agar, respectively. The ability to fix dinitrogen was measured based on nitrogenase activity of the bacteria by gas chromatography. The results showed that twelve isolates produced IAA, ranged from 2.09 to 33.28 µmol ml-1. The ability to solubilize precipitated phosphate was positively exhibited by four isolates (BS 58, BTS, TCaR 61, and BTCaRe 65). Seven isolates including Mac 259 positively produced siderophore. None of the isolates showed nitrogenase activity. Only one isolate (TS 3) did not exhibit any of the traits tested. Isolate TCeRe 60 and reference strain Mac 259 were found to have IAA- and siderophore-producing traits. Four P-solubilizing bacteria (BS 58, BTS, TCaR 61, and BTCaRe 65) were also IAA- and siderophore-producing bacteria. Potential use of these PGPR isolates needs further test in enhancing plant growth.
SOIL MYCOFLORA OF BLACK PEPPER RHIZOSPHERE IN THE PHILIPPINES AND THEIR IN VITRO ANTAGONISM AGAINST Phytophthora capsici L.
Authors: Noveriza Rita , Quimio Tricita H.
Published: October 2016

Foot rot disease of black pepper caused by Phytophthora capsici had been reported in Batangas and Laguna, Philippines. The plant was recovered following the application of crop residue (organic substrate) and intercropping with other crops. This study was aimed to isolate, identify, and determine the soil mycoflora from the rhizosphere of black pepper grown on various cropping patterns in Batangas and Laguna. Antagonistic activity of mycoflora isolates was tested against P. capsici using dual culture technique. The result showed that 149 colonies of soil mycoflora isolated were belonging to 14 genera; three of them, i.e. Penicillium, Paecilomyces and Aspergillus, were the most dominant. All of the mycoflora isolates were able to inhibit the growth of the pathogen. Eighteen of them were the most promising antagonists, based on their inhibition growth of more than 60%. It is suggested that antagonistic mechanism of Mucor isolate (1001), Trichoderma (125, 170, 171, 179, 180, 181), Gliocladium (109), Cunninghamella (165, 168), Mortierella (177), and Aspergillus (106) was space competitor (competition for nutrient) since they rapidly overgrew the pathogen. Aspergillus (67, 79, 81, 83, 108, and 202) isolates inhibited the pathogen apparently by producing antibiotic, whereas Trichoderma (125, 170, 171, 179, 180, and 181) isolates were able to penetrate the hyphae of the pathogen. The organic matter percentage in the soil was significantly correlated with the number of antagonistic mycoflora in rhizosphere (R2 = 0.1094), but the cropping pattern was negatively correlated. This study suggests that organic matter increased antagonistic mycoflora in black pepper rhizosphere, which will reduce severity of the disease.

Published: October 2016

To get insight in the structure of soybean rhizobial population native to Indonesian soils, a thorough survey of the occurrence of the soybean rhizobia were conducted in several locations in Java and Sumatra. A total of 51 different isolates of rhizobial strains were characterised phenotypically based on their symbiotic properties, and genetically using amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis (ARDRA). Based on their nodulation capacity on both soybean and the native legume mungbean, these rhizobial strains could be divided into a group of 16 strains specific for soybean only and another group of 35 promiscuous strains that nodulated both leguminous plants. Based on ARDRA of PCRamplified 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA spacer fragments, the rhizobial strains isolated from Java differed with those from Sumatra. Six Java isolates and only one Sumatra isolate were classified as Bradyrhizobium japonicum and these similar to that of B. japonicum strain USDA 110. All these B. japonicum strains were highly specific for soybean. One isolate from Java showed a rather unique position. The remaining strains from Java (20), which were symbiotically promiscuous strains, were clustered in another group. This group and another group containing most Sumatra isolates were distinct from B. japonicum USDA 110 and therefore it is tempting to speculate that these represent indigenous soybean rhizobial bacteria. Application of agricultural practices, such as enhancement of rhizobial population, to increase soybean production is still essential and noteworthy in Sumatra.
FORAGE PRODUCTION OF SOME LESSER-KNOWN LEUCAENA SPECIES GROWN ON ACID SOIL
Authors: Purwantari Nurhayati D.
Published: October 2016

Leucaena leucocephala leaves are nutritious and palatable for ruminants. However, the plant is poorly adapted on acid soil, water logged, and susceptible to psyllid (Heteropsylla cubana). Leucaena favours soils with pH >5. It performs best on calcareous soils. This study aimed to evaluate adaptability of several Leucaena species on acid soils. The study was conducted at the experimental field in Ciawi, Bogor, altitude 500 m above sea level, rainfall 1500-2000 mm year-1, on Latosol soil with pH 5.2. Leucaena species evaluated were L. leucocephala K28, L. leucocephala (local type), Leucaena KX2 hybrid, L. collinsii, L. trichandra, and L. diversifolia. Experiment was designed in a randomized complete block, four replications. All the seedlings were grown in the nursery for 2.5 months before being transplanted to the field. The plants were grown in row plots of 5 m x 1 m with planting distance 0.5 m and spacing between row plot was 3 m. One unit replicate was 5 m x 21 m. In wet season, the plants were pruned at 50 cm height every 3 months, whilst in dry season pruning was done every 5 months. Parameter measured were plant regrowth and forage production (edible part and non-edible part of the plant), as well as N and P content of the edible part. The result showed that Leucaena KX2 hybrid was superior to other leucaenas. Regrowth of KX2 hybrid was the fastest and produced highest forage. The highest fresh weight forage production for 1 year (four times harvests), i.e. 33.93 t ha-1 year-1 equal to 12.48 t ha- 1 year-1 of dry weight, was obtained from Leucaena KX2 hybrid, whereas the lowest was produced by L. diversifolia, i.e. 3.12 t ha-1 year-1 of fresh weight or 1.01 t ha-1 year-1 of dry weight. Production of non-edible part followed the pattern of production of edible part. N and P content in the edible part of all Leucaena species did not show any significant difference except for L. trichandra which contained the lowest. This study implies that Leucaena KX2 hybrid is adaptable to acid soil; therefore it can be grown in wider areas throughout Indonesia.

Published: October 2016

As a tropical country with relatively high humidity and temperature, Indonesia is struggling with aflatoxin which frequently contaminates peanut. Aflatoxin is a carcinogenic toxic substance that could cause liver cancer. Due to the increasing concern on food safety, the Indonesian Drugs and Foods Agency specifies the maximum aflatoxin allowed in peanut as much as 20 ppb. However, researches showed that aflatoxin contamination in peanut in Indonesia is much higher than the threshold. The study was carried out to observe the effect of using postharvest machineries and packaging  treatments on aflatoxin contamination in peanut. Reduction of postharvest processes was conducted by using series of machineries, e.g. thresher, dryer, and sheller. Packaging treatments, e.g. vacuum plastic pack, hermetic glass chamber, and polyethylene (PE) plastic wrap were carried out during storage at ambient temperature (25-27°C). The results showed that using machineries in postharvest handling produced peanut free from aflatoxin contamination. However, without effective packaging, the aflatoxin level would increase during storage. Hermetic packaging could protect peanut from the mold as indicated by low level of aflatoxin contamination.

Published: October 2016

Rice consumers in Indonesia exhibit wide preference variability and consumption patterns, largely because of the archipelagic nature of the country. Nowadays, the consumers become more discriminating on the rice quality due to the higher incomes and better life. Consumers are willing to pay higher price for specific quality. The objective of the study was to analyze relationship between price and grades of rice and consumer preference. The study was based on survey conducted from April 2004 to March 2005 at three-rice market centers representing a village market (Pasar Inpres) in Subang, district capital market (Pasar Johar) in Karawang, and rice center market (Pasar Induk Cipinang) in Jakarta, respectively. Parameters evaluated were changes in the quality and price of rice over time. The quality of the rice at each market was sampled monthly from two traders consisting three samples each. The rice quality was graded using existing local standar, i.e. grade 1, grade 2, and grade 3, and the price of each grade was recorded. The physical qualities of the rice samples such as moisture content, grain dimensions, percentage of whole kernels, grain color, and impurities/dockage (foreign matters, unhulled grains, and milled rice) were determined by ISO 950:1979 (for cereals-sampling as grain). Whereas the chemical qualities such as amylose and gelatinization were analyzed using Rapid Visco Analisis. The study showed that rice quality varied, most of them were long and slender kernels, chalkiness ranged between 10-20% (scale 5), and head rice around 69-84%. The amylose content was intermediate (20-21%), the gelatinization temperature was high-intermediate (70-74oC), and the gel consistency was soft (65-70). The quality incentive, defined as the additional return assuming the quality level can be raised from grade 3 to grade 1, was up to Rp700 kg-1 (~25%). The price difference among markets could reach Rp630 kg-1 (~22%). The study indicated that rice color was the important parameter determining consumers’ preference, and consequently ditermining price difference. The correlation between the rice price and its grade was significant (R= 0.95).

A Globally Coupled Pressure Method for the Discretization of the Tensor-Pressure Equation on Non-K-orthogonal Grids
Authors: Zhang Wenjuan , Al Kobaisi Mohammed
Published: October 2016

Complex permeability tensors together with general nonorthogonal and unstructured grids pose great challenges to reservoir simulation. The widely used two-point flux approximation (TPFA) is inadequate for a rigorous discretization of the flow equations on such challenging grids. Multipoint flux approximation (MPFA) methods have been proposed to meet the challenges and are currently being deployed in next-generation simulators. In this work, we propose an alternative flux-continuous cell-centered finite-volume method called the globally coupled pressure (GCP) method to discretize the pressure equation on general grids with full permeability tensors. To accurately construct fluxes through control-volume interfaces, pressure at the centroid of all interfaces is introduced as auxiliary unknowns. Flux continuity across each interface gives one equation. Assembling all the flux-continuity equations together gives a system of linear equations that can be solved simultaneously for all the auxiliary unknowns. Flux across control-volume interfaces can then be approximated with the pressure values at control-volume centers only. The fundamental difference between the GCP method and MPFA methods is that, in the latter, auxiliary unknowns are locally coupled within an interaction region and then eliminated in a local stencil by imposing flux-continuity conditions, whereas in the former, all the auxiliary unknowns are globally coupled and can only be eliminated in a global stencil. Consequently, control volumes in our GCP method are directly associated with the edges of the original grid and not by means of a dual grid overlaid and allied with the centers of the grid.

Two variants of the GCP method are presented here, and extensive numerical experiments are conducted to test the performance of the GCP methods. The results show that both variants of our GCP method are in good agreement with the classical MPFA-O method on non-K-orthogonal grids for less-challenging problems. Convergence studies reveal that the first variant of our GCP method has slower convergence rates than the MPFA-O method for some problems. However, the second variant of GCP has comparable, and in some cases, better convergence properties compared with the MPFA-O method. With numerical experiments, we further investigate monotonicity properties of our GCP method on highly anisotropic media. For Dirichlet boundary conditions, our GCP methods also suffer from nonphysical oscillations, with some degrees of improvement over the MFPA-O method. When no-flow boundary conditions are used, our GCP method is much more robust and does not produce spurious boundary extrema as MPFA methods do. Finally, we extend our GCP method to fully unstructured grids, and the results show that it is also more robust than the MPFA-O method on unstructured grids.

Segundo a Medicina Tradicional Chinesa (MTC) as patologias podem ser desencadeadas por uma desarmonia energética do organismo, considerando a saúde como resultado do equilíbrio da energia (Qi) o qual pode ser alcançado por meio da acupuntura. Este artigo relata o caso de uma paciente de 19 anos submetida a 26 sessões de tratamento com acupuntura por meio da auriculoterapia e associação sistêmica, buscando a diminuição dos sinais e sintomas relacionados ao LES. Observou-se redução em torno de 75% nos domínios da dor e da ansiedade, assim como, na diminuição da dose do corticoide e do Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC). Desta forma, a acupuntura demonstrou-se efetiva como tratamento da dor, na diminuição da ansiedade e como opção não farmacológica para a corticoterapia com inversão dos sintomas da síndrome de Cushing, redução do peso e do IMC, além dos sinais e sintomas relacionados ao Lúpus Eritematosos Sistêmico. Sugere-se a continuidade da investigação, considerando um número maior de pacientes, para que se evidencie a reprodutibilidade dos procedimentos adotados e se estabeleça um protocolo clínico seguro.Descritores: Acupuntura; Lúpus Eritematoso Sistêmico; Auriculoterapia; Corticosteroides.

O assoalho orbital é um dos locais mais comumente acometidos nas fraturas faciais, podendo se apresentar como fratura de assoalho pura ou como parte de outras fraturas do terço médio da face. Sendo assim foi realizado um relato de caso de paciente vítima de acidente motociclístico que apresentava equimose periorbitária do lado esquerdo, degrau ósseo em pilar zigomático-maxilar ipsilateral assim como parestesia infra-orbital do mesmo lado. Ao exame oftalmológico, a acuidade visual, a motilidade ocular e o reflexo fotomotor estavam preservados, ausência de diplopia e enoftalmia. Foi constatado clinica e imaginologicamente fratura de assoalho orbital, sutura fronto-zigomática, pilar zigomático-maxilar, pilar canino esquerdo e septo nasal. Foi então realizado sob anestesia geral a redução e fixação das fraturas mencionadas meio do acesso subtarsal para a fratura orbital, associada a enxerto de cartilagem auricular removido no mesmo ato cirúrgico. Em pós-operatórios de 15 dias, 7 meses e 9 meses aspectos de normalidade e processo normal de cicatrização foram observados assim como manutenção da acuidade e motilidade ocular mantiveram-se preservados.Descritores: Fraturas Ósseas; Cartilagem da Orelha; Transplante.

Dentes tratados endodonticamente com extensas perdas de estrutura dentária causadas por traumatismo dentário representam um desafio clínico. Para a reabilitação destes dentes, se faz necessária a utilização de meios que promovam retenção e longevidade às restaurações. O uso de pinos de fibra de vidro pré-fabricados associados às restaurações diretas tem representado uma alternativa eficaz, que vêm alcançando prognósticos favoráveis. O objetivo deste trabalho é descrever um caso clínico relacionado a um traumatismo dos incisivos superiores, e mostrar o tratamento integrado proposto. O tratamento a ser realizado nos dentes 11 e 21 consistiu na obturação do canal radicular, com posterior cimentação de pinos de fibra de vidro e realização de restaurações adesivas diretas, auxiliadas por meio de enceramento diagnóstico e a utilização de guia palatina de silicone. Nos dentes 12 e 22 realizou-se o tratamento restaurador com resina composta. Diante este traumatismo complexo envolvendo grande destruição coronária, os pinos de fibra de vidro associados às restaurações diretas possibilitaram a reabilitação e mostraram-se como indicações viáveis, pois devolveram a função, estética, protegeram o remanescente dental e preveniram possíveis recontaminações do canal radicular.Descritores: Endodontia; Traumatismos Dentários; Pinos Dentários; Resinas Compostas.

Microdochium patch is an important turfgrass disease in cool‐humid regions and is caused by the pathogen Microdochium nivale (Fries) Samuels & Hallett. Control of the pathogen is necessary to provide acceptable putting‐green‐quality turf, and fungicide applications are the predominant method of control. Increasing pesticide restrictions have generated interest in alternative management techniques of Microdochium patch. This research evaluated the effects of three nitrogen and five iron sulfate rates on Microdochium patch development on a trafficked, sand‐based, annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.) putting green in Corvallis, OR for over 2 yr in the absence of fungicides. Data included turf quality, area under disease progress curve, and soil test results of saturated paste extract pH, cation extractable sulfate, and DTPA‐sorbitol extractable iron. This research provided evidence that low rates of urea (4.88 kg N ha−1) applied every 2 wk did not lead to an increase in Microdochium patch severity and that iron sulfate applications decreased Microdochium patch on annual bluegrass putting greens. Despite the disease suppression observed, no treatment received a turf‐quality rating considered acceptable. Low turf‐quality ratings where disease development was low were attributed to turfgrass thinning or blackening of the shoots resulting from iron sulfate applications. Soil tests provided evidence that the highest iron sulfate level used in this study (97.65 kg ha−1) applied every 2 wk would likely lead to a lower soil pH and an increase in soil sulfate levels.

Dhurrin content in leaves of the mature sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] plant is a quantitative measure of the level of pre‐ and postflowering drought tolerance, with high dhurrin contents expressed in postflowering drought‐tolerant lines. Postflowering drought tolerance in sorghum has been linked to the staygreen trait and associated with increased grain yield during postanthesis stress. Seasonal variability in postflowering drought occurrences makes selection for the staygreen trait unpredictable and the efficiency and reliability of screening for the trait using only conventional breeding low. Differences in dhurrin content between high and low dhurrin levels lines is only markedly favored to the high dhurrin level lines in the upper leaves of matured field‐grown plants. Here we report a screening method using early seedling growth characteristics of sorghum lines of known dhurrin level grown in sand with no inorganic nutrients supply. The method was evaluated under cold and warm temperatures. Seedling growth characteristics and contents of dhurrin and high‐performance liquid chromatography‐detected sugars were determined at 5, 10, 17, and 23 d after emergence. High dhurrin level lines had larger increases in shoot fresh weight, dried weight, and length than did lines with low dhurrin levels at 10 d after emergence under both temperatures. Similar trends were observed when separating lines into high and low dhurrin levels using fresh shoot mass and length at 10 d after emergence. Dhurrin content decreased with seedling age, was statistically similar between dhurrin levels, and negatively correlated to concentrations of sugar. Thus, selecting for postflowering drought tolerance can be timely, reliably, and inexpensively done using early seedling growth characteristics.

Ultradwarf bermudagrass (UDB) [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. × C. transvaalensis Burtt‐Davy] cultivars are prolific thatch producers, a trait linked to decreased playability and plant health. A 2‐yr study was conducted to evaluate impacts of cultural management practice and cultivar selection on plant health and playability of ‘Champion’ and ‘MiniVerde’ UDB cultivars. Cultural management practices included standard weekly applications of vertical mow (VM); weekly applications of VM with once monthly substitutions of alternative slice, spike, and scarify practices; and once monthly applications of slice, spike, and scarify practices alone. Plant health was assessed as turf quality and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and playability as ball roll distance and surface firmness. Additional assessments included uncompressed thatch depths, root length, and root weight. Standard VM practices provided the lowest turf quality and the firmest golf green surfaces; once monthly applications of alternative slice, spike, and scarify practices provided the highest turf quality and the softest golf green surfaces; and once monthly substitutions of slice, spike, and scarify practices in weekly VM regimes provided an intermediate level of turf quality and golf green surface firmness. The turf quality of MiniVerde was generally higher than that of Champion. The NDVI was similar between the two cultivars, but greater NDVI was observed on Champion during late‐season months of 2012. Neither cultural management practices nor cultivar selection affected thatch depth, root length, root weight, or ball roll distance. These results support previous UDB management studies and further suggest that alternative approaches to standard VM practices may be necessary to optimize UDB performance.

Published: October 2016

Tuberculous retropharyngeal abscess is extremely rare in adults and, if left untreated, is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Early diagnosis and aggressive treatment with anti‐tuberculosis drugs is essential. Delay can lead to long‐term disability due to spinal cord compression or spinal deformity. Spinal involvement is seen in 5% of cases. This report highlights the challenges faced in airway management of a young adult male with cervical spine instability secondary to tubercular retropharyngeal abscess. The importance of co‐ordinated multi‐speciality intervention in facilitating a successful outcome is emphasised.

Published: October 2016

The increasing complexity of aortic procedures necessitates a team approach to maintain the integrity of end‐organ perfusion. The case report described here illustrates a complex hybrid aortic procedure in a patient who had had previous cardiac surgery. The patient underwent total aortic arch repair using an elephant trunk and thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and bilateral selective antegrade cerebral perfusion was employed with adjunctive pharmacotherapy using sodium thiopental and methylprednisolone. We explore the current evidence base for the anaesthetic management of such complex aortic procedures as well as various cerebral protection strategies and their limitations.

Cystic echinococcosis in humans and animals: Current epidemiological situation in Poland
Authors: Gawor Jakub
Published: October 2016

The purpose of this article was to present current data on cases of cystic echinococcosis in humans and animals in Poland. Cystic echinococcosis, caused by Echinococcus granulosus, is one of the most important parasitic zoonoses occurring globally. In many regions of the world, the disease is an important epidemiological problem. The life cycle of Echinococcus involves hoofed farm animals and dogs. Among its species and genotypes ascertained in the world, two (G1 and G7) have been confirmed in sheep and pigs as intermediate hosts in Poland. Molecular examinations of postoperative parasitic material from patients established that the porcine strain G7 is the cause of human cystic echinococcosis in Poland. Data on post-slaughter examinations of pigs identified as intermediate hosts of E. granu-losus suggest that the number of cases reported in humans (approx. 40 annually) is probably underestimated. In the last two years, the prevalence of hydatid cysts in pigs in Poland has been estimated at 0.3%, with the highest number of infected animals in central Poland (0.4%-1.2%). This indicates the presence of infection in dogs and the risk of echinococcosis for humans.
