RESUMEN
Here, we report the influence of Jahn-Teller active Cu substitution on the charge-ordering (CO) characteristics of one of the well-known manganite Pr0.45Sr0.55MnO3(S55) with a distorted tetragonal structure. Magnetization studies unveil a complex magnetic phase diagram for S55, showing distinct temperature ranges corresponding to various magnetic phases: a ferromagnetic phase dominated by the Double Exchange interaction withTCâ¼ 220.5 K, an antiferromagnetic phase belowTNâ¼ 207.6 K induced by CO with a transition temperature ofTCOâ¼ 210 K consistent with the specific heatCP(T) data, and a mixed phase in the rangeTN
RESUMEN
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are the main component of soil microbial population in most agroecosystems. They forms a close association with more than 80% of the plant species making immobilized mineral nutrients available to the plants in order to sustain normal growth and reproduction. In this study the diversity of mycorrhizal fungi has been examined in seven land use ecosystems of Arunachal Pradesh in Eastern Himalayan region. A total of 24 species of AM fungi belonging to 4 genera viz., Glomus, Scutellospora, Aculospora and Gigaspora were isolated from the soil samples collected from different land use systems. Glomus was the dominant genera and Glomus occulatum was the most abundant species in all the seven land use systems. Total spore number was highly variable among all the land use systems. Species richness was recorded highest in natural forest that maintains a faster nutrient cycle with the highest diversity index. The Jhum fallow land and tea garden has the least number of AM fungal species due to high disturbance of fire and application of fungicides and inorganic fertilizer. Further the plant species composition, particularly the ground vegetation coverage and disturbance level affects the distribution of the AM fungal species. In our study it has been shown that AMF diversity is significantly affected by the land use practices practiced by the people. Hence, the AM fungi isolated from different land use system may be useful in improving the agriculture practices particularly the plantation crops in the region.

Primary intraventricular haemorrhage secondary to thrombolytic therapy has not been reported. A 55 years male who received i.v. streptokinase (STK) followed by heparinization for an acute myocardial infraction developed an extensive primary intraventricular haemorrhage from which he made an uneventful recovery over the next three months.
