English

Subject field(s)
  • Viral Diseases
CONT

In April 1984, Dr. Luc Montagnier's group at the Pasteur Institute in Paris isolated a virus that he called "lymphadenopathy-associated virus", or LAV... Less than a year later, Dr. Robert Gallo of the National Institute of Health isolated a virus from an AIDS patient that he called "human T-cell lymphotrophic virus, type three :, or HTLV-III. The two viruses were later found to be virtually identical, and thus the virus now thought to cause-or at least be one cause of-AIDS is known as LAV/HTLV III.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Maladies virales
CONT

L'infection par le LAV/HTLV III ne provoque pas une chute de l'immunité chez tous les sujets. En effet, il ne suffit pas d'avoir été infecté par le virus pour développer un SIDA.

CONT

Generations derived from two transgenic barley lines were inluded in the trial. These were produced using th BioRad PDS 1000/He particle device to introduce DNA to immature embryos of the spring variety Golden Promise,(Harwood et al. submitted to Euphytica). Line HB1 contains the plasmid pAHC25(Christensen and Quail, 1996) and line HC1 contains plasmids pAL51 and pAL74(Lonsdale et al. 1995). Both pAHC25 and pAL51 contain the bar gene, encoding herbicide resistance, as a selectable marker as well as a reporter gene, gus or luc repectively, and pAL74 contains a fungal glucoamylase gene. Both T1 and T2 generations of line HB1 were represented in the trial, where T0 was the primary transformant. Only the T1 generation of HC1 was included. Lines HB1 and HC1 were selected for the field trial from a number of transgenic lines in the glasshouse. These lines were chosen on the basis of a visual selection for normal appearance and full fertility. Both lines had normal chromosome number and showed the expected sigle gene segregation in the T1 generation.
