1. Dwarfing-canopy and rootstock cultivars for fruit trees
Resumo Como as plantas frutíferas apresentam em geral porte elevado, a obtenção de plantas de porte reduzido, ou até anãs, é de grande interesse na fruticultura. Nesta revisão são comentadas algumas das principais plantas frutíferas de clima tropical, subtropical ou temperado que têm variedades de porte reduzido, ou mesmo anãs. As causas do nanis

2. Selection of squash “Menina Brasileira” carrying the allele “Bush” with high yield potential
RESUMO Objetivou-se introduzir o alelo Bush, de cultivares com hábito de crescimento tipo “moita”, em acessos de Cucurbita moschata e selecionar os melhores cruzamentos quanto ao potencial produtivo e ao formato de fruto padrão “menina brasileira” por meio da capacidade geral (CGC) e da capacidade específica (CEC) de combinação. Para determinar

3. A giant on the ground: another large-bodied Atractus (Serpentes: Dipsadinae) from Ecuadorian Andes, with comments on the dietary specializations of the goo-eaters snakes
ABSTRACT Body-size is significantly correlated with the number of vertebrae (pleomerism) in multiple vertebrate lineages, indicating that somitogenesis process is an important factor dictating evolutionary change associated to phyletic allometry and, consequently, species fitness and diversification. However, the role of the evolution of extreme body sizes (

4. Crescimento e rendimento de quatro cultivares de mangueira enxertadas em porta-enxertos, no Distrito Federal.
RESUMO: A seleção de porta-enxertos para nanismo tem sido um aspecto importante no programa de melhoramento de manga na região do Brasil Central. As cultivares de manga para exportação Tommy Atkins e Haden, embora produtivas, com frutas de coloração excelente e polpa sem fibras são vigorosas e de porte elevado, o que dificulta os tratos culturais e c

5. "Estado nutricional de alunos de 6 a 10 anos do ensino fundamental (1º e 2º ciclos) de escolas públicas municipais da zona urbana do município de Pinhão - PR" / "Nutritional statue of basic education students (1st and 2nd cycle) between 6 and 10 years old at municipal public schools in the urban area of Pinhão - PR."
Evaluating the nutritional situation of school children is extremely important to diagnose health and disease risks in this age range, as it can avoid future morbidities. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of nutritional alterations among basic education students (1st and 2nd cycle) at municipal public schools in Pinhão PR, Brazil. The sample ne

6. Nanismo nutricional em crianÃas em idade escolar no Estado de Pernambuco, 1997
RevisÃo da literatura sobre o nanismo nutricional no Brasil. Os principais tÃpicos abordados foram: definiÃÃo do problema, a utilizaÃÃo da medida da altura em escolares como mÃtodo de excelÃncia para avaliar o estado de saÃde e nutriÃÃo das populaÃÃes, as principais causas e conseqÃÃncias apontadas na literatura e sua magnitude no paÃs.

7. Characterization of the human growth hormone receptor gene and demonstration of a partial gene deletion in two patients with Laron-type dwarfism.
Laron-type dwarfism is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder that is characterized by high levels of growth hormone and low levels of insulin-like growth factor I in the circulation. Several lines of evidence suggest that this disease is caused by a defect in the growth hormone receptor. In order to analyze the receptor gene in patients with Laron-type dwa

8. Renal tubular leakage complicating microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism.
We describe a male infant with phenotypic and radiological features of microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism type I/III. He showed severe osteoporosis and biochemical derangement owing to renal tubular leakage, which has not previously been reported in this condition. He died aged 5 months.

9. Osteoglophonic dwarfism in two generations.
A father and son, both affected by a skeletal dysplasia with severe craniofacial deformities, are reported and compared to three previously described isolated cases of the same dwarfism. The principal features are craniosynostosis, multiple lucent metaphyseal defects, flattening and anterior beaking of the vertebral bodies, and abnormal dentition. Autosomal

10. Spondylo-mesomelic-acrodysplasia with joint dislocations and severe combined immunodeficiency: a newly recognised immuno-osseous dysplasia.
A newborn girl is described with an association of spondylo-acrodysplasia, mild short limbed dwarfism without significant metaphyseal changes, joint dislocations, and severe immune system dysfunction. This association is distinct from other known immuno-osseous dysplasias, including Schimke dysplasia, ADA deficiency with osseous changes, and Omenn phenotype

11. Positional cloning of the gene LIMBIN responsible for bovine chondrodysplastic dwarfism
Chondrodysplastic dwarfism in Japanese brown cattle is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by short limbs. Previously, we mapped the locus responsible for the disease on the distal end of bovine chromosome 6. Here, we narrowed the critical region to ≈2 cM by using linkage analysis, constructed a BAC and YAC contig covering this region, and identi

12. Familial Bird-headed Dwarfism (Seckel's Syndrome)
Low birth weight dwarfism with mental retardation, large eyes, a beaklike nose, narrow face, receding mandible, and dental anomalies are the specific features of `bird-headed dwarf of Seckel'. The following case report presents details of a Seckel dwarf with familial occurrence of the trait and, thus supports an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance. In ad
