Three blocks of Chardonnay in one vineyard in the Buckland Valley of Victoria, Australia, were surveyed over 4 years for grapevine yellows disease (GYd). Buckland Valley grapevine yellows phytoplasma (BVGYp) was the only phytoplasma detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis in GYd affected grapevines. GYd affected many grapevines and was characterized by remission of disease, some recurrence and occurrences in previously unaffected grapevines. A regional survey of the Buckland Valley indicated that both GYd and BVGYp occurred in the same restricted grape growing area. Within this area, BVGYp was detected in two vineyards that had been established using planting material from different sources. One could therefore speculate that BVGYp was present in these grapevines as a result of aerial transmission and was not present in the original planting material.
Employment taxes have become more complicated over time, and too much of an administrative burden is now placed on employers, especially smaller ones. Combining PAYE and NIC has the potential for big simplification of the system. My basic thesis is that circumstances have changed dramatically, and so must the system, because all is not well in the employment taxes area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
