    Notes: Abstract  We have identified the importance of ground layer ericaceous shrub density as a determinant of leaf litter patch size in upland oak/pine communities of the New Jersey pine barrens. Litter patch area is directly proportional to the number of ericaceous stems. This observation has been confirmed by experimentation where leaf litter patches accumulated under artificial stems for a period of 2 years. Leaf litter patches of different sizes contain differing proportions of leaf species. Large patches contain a significantly higher proportion of oak leaves than small patches. Difference in physical structure of large and small patches, due to leaf species composition and due to differential leaf chemistries, result in differences in soil characteristics and soil biota under the patches. Soil moisture and organic matter content of upper soil layers are greater under large litter patches than under small ones. We have preliminary evidence that these changes influence the community structure of ectomycorrhizae developing under patches of different sizes.

    Notes: Abstract. Land application of organic wastes can result in the accumulation of available soil phosphorus (P) and in an increase risk of eutrophication of surface and shallow groundwaters. We conducted laboratory experiments to examine the effect of waste application on the concentration of dissolved reactive phosphorus (DRP) in 1:5 soil to 0.005 m CaCl2 suspensions. Ten organic wastes, of which eight were mature composts, were applied to a P-rich Calcaric Fluvisol at rates ranging from 0 to 10% of soil by weight, and the difference in DRP concentration between suspensions containing waste and the untreated control (ΔDRP) was measured over a period of 300 days. In half of the suspensions of each waste–soil combination, 80 mg P (as KH2PO4) kg−1 soil was applied at day 14. Values of ΔDRP were generally positive, but a significant number of negative values were also recorded for some wastes and application rates, particularly at later sampling times if inorganic P had been added. Regression analyses revealed that ΔDRP (i) increased with increasing soluble reactive P at all times and (ii) increased in the short term, but decreased in the long term with increasing water soluble organic carbon in the waste. The fact that ΔDRP was sometimes negative for some waste types suggests that application of organic waste to soil does not necessarily increase eutrophication risks caused by soil P losses.

    Notes: Field resistance of Echinochloa spp. to propanil has been previously reported in Costa Rica, Colombia and Arkansas (USA). In this study, the mechanism of resistance was investigated in three resistant (R) and three susceptible (S) biotypes. The shoot fresh weight reduction in pot-grown plants from a post-emergence spray of propanil at 2.44 kg a.i. ha−1 on biotypes R/S from Costa Rica, Colombia and Arkansas was 35/98%, 25/79% and 20/82% respectively. In vitro chlorophyll fluorescence data from leaf tissue incubated in propanil showed that photosynthesis was inhibited in all biotypes, indicating that the propanil-binding site and enzyme were not altered. After transfer to herbicide-free solution, photosynthesis recovered only in resistant biotypes, indicating that the mechanism of resistance was caused by enhanced metabolism of the herbicide. Simultaneous treatment with fenitrothion, an aryl acylamidase inhibitor, prevented the recovery of photosynthesis in leaf tissue in two resistant biotypes. In contrast, the cytochrome P450 mono-oxygenase inhibitor, 1-aminobenzotriazole, did not prevent recovery from propanil in leaf tissue. Application of 14C-propanil to the second leaf of intact Echinochloa plants showed that c. 90% of the radioactivity remained in the treated leaf for up to 72 h after application. No major differences in translocation between R and S biotype plants were found. TLC analysis of tissue extracts from the treated leaves showed substantially less radioactivity associated with propanil, present after 72 h in rice or in the three R biotypes, compared with S biotypes.

    Notes: A high-resolution scanning electron microscope was used to study the microstructural changes occurring during the desorption and recombination stages in a cast Nd14Fe79B7 alloy HDDR processed at 780 °C. Phase identification was based on backscattered electron contrast. In the early stages of desorption, the disproportionated structure in the matrix coarsens to produce a mixture of Nd-rich (NdH2 and/or Nd) and Fe-rich (αFe and/or Fe2B) clusters. At the center of the specimen, regions of recombined multicrystalline Nd2Fe14B phase are observed associated with Nd- and Fe-rich clusters. When desorption of hydrogen is almost complete, the microstructure consists of a Nd2Fe14B matrix with a few remaining Nd- and Fe-rich clusters. The subsequent completion of recombination results in a multigrained Nd2Fe14B structure, some grains being separated by Nd-rich material. The magnetic properties of the Nd14Fe79B7 alloy have been measured at significant stages during the desorption/recombination process at 600 °C, the stages being deduced from electrical resistivity measurements. Initially, the material is noncoercive with a high magnetization at 1100 kA/m, reflecting the high proportion of αFe in the sample. As recombination proceeds, the magnetization drops and the coercivity increases as the fine-grained Nd2Fe14B develops and the αFe disappears.

    Notes: A simple, all solid-state, circuit is described that produces a square wave with variable amplitude from 0 to 1000 V and a frequency of 120 kHz into a capacitive load. The device is of application to Stark modulation in microwave and gas radical e.s.r. spectroscopy. It has certain advantages over previous systems, being more compact, excluding supply short circuits, providing an output that is automatically real zero based and being continuously variable over the range 0–1000 V, thus avoiding the need for capacitive division.

    Notes: Abstract Two new cytotoxic antitumor diterpenoids of the cembrane class, named 14-deoxycrassin (3) and pseudoplexaurol (4), have been isolated from the Caribbean gorgonian octocoralPseudoplexaura porosa. The structure of lactone3, possessing the infrequently encountered α-methylene-δ-lactone ring, has been established from spectral and chemical data and that of alcohol4 has been established from spectral data.
