Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the group/subgroup of phytoplasma agent in peppers showing phytoplasma symptoms. Material and Methods: In this study, plants collected from Iğdır province in 2020 were analyzed using direct and nested PCR tests, and BLASTn, iphyClassifier, Mega 7, and pDRAW32 programs were used. Results: In the tests performed, approximately 1.2 kb of DNA fragments specific to phytoplasma were obtained. The 16S rRNA nucleotide sequence (1254 bp in length) (OM663745) revealed that it was showed more than 99.44% nucleotide similarity to other ‘Ca. P. trifolii’ members. The tentative RFLP and phylogenetic analyzes performed proved the ‘Ca. P. trifolii’ the infection from the Clover proliferation group (16SrVI) group and subgroup A in symptomatic pepper plants. Conclusion: The presence of ‘Ca. P. trifolii’ in naturally infected peppers in Iğdır province of Turkey was detected using PCR-RFLP and cladistic analysis.

ABSTRACT A single-contig, circular metagenome-assembled genome (cMAG) of Candidatus ( Ca. ) Patescibacteria was reconstructed from a mesophilic full-scale food waste treatment plant in Japan. The genome is of small size and lacks fundamental biosynthetic pathways. Taxonomic analysis using the Genome Taxonomy Database revealed that this cMAG belonged to the genus JAEZRQ01 ( Ca . Parcubacteria).

Prispevek obravnava usodo rimske poganske religije v zadnjih stoletjih njenega obstoja, predvsem v obdobju med 3. in 5. stoletjem po Kristusu. Najprej na kratko predstavi temeljne značilnosti rimskega poganstva, kot sta rimsko razumevanje pojma "numen" in osredinjenost na kultni formalizem. V nadaljevanju se ukvarja s silnicami, ki so prispevale k postopnemu upadu starih izročil, npr. splošno krizo rimskega cesarstva v drugi polovici 3. stoletja in prevladujoče henoteistične težnje v sočasnem verskem razvoju. Članek se posveča tudi poskusom poganske inteligence, da bi ohranila staro religijo, ki so dosegli vrh v neuspešni obnovi poganstva pod cesarjem Julijanom in doživeli dokončni poraz pod Teodozijem.
