After cultivation on LB medium at 28℃ for48 h, the colonies were light yellow, circular or amorphous, translucent, with smooth and slightly concaved surface and neat edge. Observation under electron microscope showed that the isolates was red-shaped, decapsulated and gram-nega- tive in the size of （0.5 - 1.0） μm × （2.2 -3.0） μm, with 2 -8 flagella. After cultivation on CVP medium at 28 ℃ for 48 h, the colonies were sunken like a cup. The pathogen was able to grow in 5% NaCl medium at 37 ℃, and produced acid through glucose fermentation; it was facuhative anaerobic, and could use citrates, but could not produce indole. It was preliminarily confirmed that the pathogen causing Wufeng Maryland tobacco hollow stalk was Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum.展开更多

The map, which was surveyed and composed between 1660 and 1670, is exceptional from several points of view: the vast impenetrable territory covering a strip of land of about 700 × 400 km was mapped by one man, Augustin Herrman “Bohemian” (as he called himself) and by his crew during 10-year surveying and trigonometric measurements. It seems that this extraordinary map belongs among the first geodetically surveyed maps of the American territory. In 1960 altogether 5 copies of the map, complete in four parts, were known in British, French and American Libraries and map collections.展开更多
