    Summary: This book provides in-depth information on all key aspects of geminivirus biology, e.g. the genetics and evolution, global diversity and spread of these plant pathogens, as well as the molecular mechanisms underlying their virulence. Geminiviridae is one of the largest viral families, comprising numerous plant-infecting viruses that cause diseases in crops and weeds. These diseases have been reported from nearly all continents, in particular Asia, Europe, Africa and America. The book summarizes the current state of knowledge on the interactions between plant host and virus. In addition, it discusses advances regarding the trans-replication of satellite molecules and its effect on geminiviral pathogenesis, as well as pest management strategies to combat these diseases in the field. Given its scope, the book is a must-read reference guide for all researchers and advanced students working in virology, agriculture and plant biotechnology.

    138 different coliform isolates from patients with UTI in 2 General Practices in Stockport, England, showed an incidence of drug resistance of 36%: 47% of these strains transferred resistance to E. coli K12. Multiple resistance, i.e. resistance to more than 2 drugs occurred in more than a quarter of resistant isolates and sulphonamide resistance was most common. More than twice as many strains in this series (1973--74) were sulphonamide resistant compared with a previous survey (1968--70). MIC values of R+ resistant isolates were much higher with sulphonamide resistant strains than the probable urine levels during therapy, but the situation with ampicillin and tetracycline levels was variable.
