Plants were harvested 50 days after sowing and evaluated for nutrient uptake, the number of leaves, fresh and dry weight of shoot per plant and yield of major compounds in the essential oil. Accessions AMES 18596 and PI 171592 presented the following order of accumulation TPX-0005 molecular weight of macronutrients: K > N > Ca > Mg > P > S. For the accessions AMES 4998, PI 193770 and the cultivar Santo, the order K >
N > Ca > P > Mg > S was observed. Micronutrients accumulation in cilantro shoot in descending order for all genotypes was: Fe > Zn > B > Mn > Cu. The highest number of leaves per plant was found in the accession AMES 18596 (9.94), while the others produced on average 7.24. Accessions AMES 18596 and PI 193770 produced 7.34g plant(-1) of fresh weight of shoots. Accession PI 171592 produced slightly higher yields (6.23 g plant(-1)) than the cultivar Santo and AMES 4998 (4.75 g plant(-1)). For dry weight of shoots, accessions AMES 18596 and PI 193770 produced the highest yields (0.58 g plant(-1)), followed by PI 171592 (0.47 g plant(-1))
and the accession AMES 4998 and the cultivar Santo that had on average 0.35 g plant(-1). The yield of the major compounds in the essential VEGFR inhibitor oil was higher for accessions AMES 18596 and PI 193770 (88.84 mu g plant(-1)) following by AMES 4998 and Santo (38.95 mu g plant(-1)) and PI 171592 (23.31 mu g plant(-1)). On average the yield of aliphatic aldehydes in fresh weight followed the order: trans-2-dodecenal > decanal > trans-2-decenal > tetradecenal > dodecanal > tetradecanal.

“P>We report the case of a 53-year-old female patient with refractory acute myeloid leukemia developing a necrotic, soft tissue abscess on
the right forearm caused by Scedosporium apiospermum during prolonged severe neutropenia (absolute white blood cell count < 500/mu L for 49 days). In the context of the severely Bcl-xL protein immunocompromised state of the patient and her need for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), surgical treatment options were not favored. Therefore, combined antifungal therapy with voriconazole and caspofungin was started, based on the results of the in vitro testing (minimum inhibitory concentrations of voriconazole, posaconazole, and amphotericin B: 1, 4, and > 2 mg/L, respectively). The local site of infection slowly improved clinically and no spread of S. apiospermum infection to other sites was observed. After HSCT, the soft tissue abscess resolved completely and the patient has remained free of S. apiospermum infection since then. We successfully demonstrate that the use of combined antifungal therapy with voriconazole and casopfungin may further improve the clinical course and provides a promising therapeutic option to treat Scedosporium infections in such patients.
