Breakpoint Phylogenies.

We describe a number of heuristicsfor inferring the gene orders of the hypothetical ancestral genomes in a fixed phylogeny. The optimization criterion is the minimum number of breakpoints (pairs of genes adjacent in one genome but not the other) in the gene orders of two genomes connected by an edge of the tree, summed over all edges. The key to the method is an exact solution for trees with three leaves (the median problem) based on a reduction to the Traveling Salesman Problem.

[Treatment of septicemia and severe infections with a cefradine-tobramycin combination].

The cefradine-tobramycine association was used in 11 cases of septicaemia and in 10 cases of non-septicaemic severe poly-infections. In 15 cases, the treatment was undertaken because of the serious state of the patients before the bacteriologic results were known. This association is characterized by its great effectiveness and its very good tolerance, mainly from the renal point of view. The results shown here corroborate those two elements.
