Diferença entre as espécies de Timbó (Derris Spp., Fabaceae) de diferentes regiões da Amazônia no controle da Musca domestica L.

The roots' powder of timbo species collected in different regions of Amazonia that were tested in larvae groupings, didn't produce differential significative effects in two strains of Musca domestica. The two species with the greater number of plants used in the trial were Derris urucu and Derris nicou; the individuals from the species came from regions considered as "forestal refugies" during the Amazonian pleistocene. Among each species the plants varied since that inefficient to control, until plants lethals to the fies. This differential capacity for larvae control among plants of the same species, originated from different regions, suggests that both species had their populations isolated, during the quaternary epoch. In regions or "forestal refugies", where both species were represented, D. urucu was superior to D. nicou in the capacity to control larvae. While among plants from F region (Peruvian-East refuge) of the State of Acre, the two species had convergence in the values of damage to larvae groupings. Among the another species, Derris sp. (yellow timbo or watermelon timbo) didn't show differences in larvae control between samples from the two regions; while the species that was introduced in the Amazonia Denis elleptica showed damage in the larvae groupings similar to the most effective plants of D. nicou and D. urucu.

Teores de rotenona em Clones de Timbó (Derris Spp. Fabaceae) de diferentes regiões da Amazônia e os seus efeitos na emergência de Imagos em Musca Domestica L

The rotenone contents analysis in clones of three timbó species permited the classification of these plants based on their efficiency to control Musca domestica larvae. The results showed significant correlations between the rotenone contents in the Derris urucu and D. nicou clones with the capacity to control the larvae. The plants with high rotenone contents were more effective. The rotenone contents, the effect of Derris species clones on the flics and the localization of the plants origin, showed that among the plants could have happened a populational isolation in the Amazonia during the pleistocene epoch. In Derris sp., that presented lower rotenone contents and was ineffective to control of the larvae, these differences were not observed.

Serological and molecular survey of Leptospira spp. among cart horses from an endemic area of human leptospirosis in Curitiba, southern Brazil

Introduction: Cart horses are a re-emerging population employed to carry recyclable material in cities. Methods: Sixty-two horses were sampled in an endemic area of human leptospirosis. The microscopic agglutination test (MAT) and real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were performed. Results: A seropositivity of 75.8% with serovar Icterohaemorrhagiae in 80.8% of the horses was observed. Blood and urine were qPCR negative. MAT showed positive correlations with rainfall (p = 0.02) and flooding (p = 0.03). Conclusions: Although horses may be constantly exposed to Leptospira spp. in the environment mostly because of rainfall and flooding, no leptospiremia or leptospiruria were observed in this study.
