The genetic divergence in 20 Eucalyptus spp. clones was evaluated by multivariate techniques based on 167 RAPD markers, of which 155 were polymorphic and 12 monomorphic. The measures of genetic distances were obtained by the arithmetic complement of the coefficients of Jaccard and of Sorenso-Nei and Li and evaluated by the hierarchical methods of Single Linkage clustering and Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean (UPGMA). Independent of the dissimilarity coefficient, the greatest divergence was found between clones 7 and 17 and the smallest between the clones 11 and 14. Clone clustering was little influenced by the applied procedure so that, adopting the same percentage of divergence, the UPGMA identified two groups less for the coefficient of Sorenso-Nei and Li. The clones evidenced considerable genetic divergence, which is partly associated to the origin of the study material. The clusters formed by the UPGMA clustering algorithm associated to the arithmetic complement of Jaccard were most consistent.

A Salmonella Typhi é o agente etiológico da febre tifóide, uma doença infecciosa, sistêmica, que constitui importante problema de saúde pública principalmente nos países em desenvolvimento da África, Ásia, América Central e do Sul. Amostras de Salmonella Typhi isoladas de casos clínicos no período de 1970 a 2009 no Estado do Pará foram caracterizadas por meio da técnica de Eletroforese em Gel de Campo Pulsado (PFGE). O perfil de suscetibilidade aos antimicrobianos foi realizado através dos métodos manual e automatizado. Foi empregada a técnica de Reação em Cadeia Mediada pela Polimerase (PCR) para a pesquisa das integrases de classe 1 e 2 e do fator de virulência Vi. Em 151 amostras pôde-se observar 68 diferentes pulsotipos, sendo 66 deles agrupados em 5 clusters. As amostras independente de sua procedência, fonte de isolamento ou ano, apresentaram elevada similaridade genética que variou de 80 a 100%. Verificou-se resistência (1,99%) e resistência intermediária (6,62%) somente à nitrofurontoína, em nenhuma amostra foi detectado integrase de classe 1 e 2, demonstrando, que, no Estado do Pará, as cepas circulantes não apresentam multi-resistência como observado em várias regiões do mundo. Foram encontradas 4 (2,65%) amostras Vi-negativo, que pode ser devido ao longo período de armazenamento, pois a ilha de patogenicidade SPI-7 é geneticamente instável e pode ser perdida após sucessivos repiques.

Parrotfishes (Labridae, Scarinae) comprise a large marine fish group of difficult identification, particularly during juvenile phase when the typical morphology and coloration of adults are absent. Therefore, the goal of this study was to test cytogenetic markers and DNA barcoding in the identification of bucktooth parrtotfish Sparisoma radians from the northeastern coast of Brazil. Sequencing of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) confirmed all studied samples as S. radians, and all showed high similarity (99-100%) with Caribbean populations. The karyotype of this species was divergent from most marine Perciformes, being composed of 2n = 46 chromosomes. These consisted of a large number of metacentric and submetacentric pairs with small amounts of heterochromatin and GC-rich single nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) not syntenic to 5S rDNA clusters. These are the first data about DNA barcoding in parrotfish from the Brazilian province and the first refined chromosomal analysis in Scarinae, providing useful data to a reliable genetic identification of S. radians.

A complete morphological description, supported by molecular data, of Clinostomum detruncatum metacercariae is reported in this study. The metacercariae were found infecting Synbranchus marmoratus from the Paraná River, municipality of GuaÃ-ra, Paraná State, Brazil. The taenioidean uterus is the main morphological characteristic of this species. Both Neighbour-Joining (NJ) and Maximum Likelihood (ML) trees showed 2 clear separate clusters grouping together the species from the Palearctic region (Clinostomum complanatum, Clinostomum cutaneum, Clinostomum phalacrocoracis, Clinostomum philippinense) and from the Nearctic/Neotropical regions (Clinostomum marginatum, Clinostomum tataxumui, C. detruncatum, Clinostomum sp. 7). The latter clade is divided into 2 subclades grouping species from North America and Mexico (C. marginatum and C. tataxumui), and from Brazil (C. detruncatum and Clinostomum sp. 7).
