    Notes: The temperature dependence of plant growth rate is related to the temperature dependence of respiratory metabolism. To determine how the effects of temperature on respiration rate and efficiency are transmitted to growth, this study measured the dark metabolic heat rate (q) and CO2 production rate (RCO2) in excised shoots of seedlings of 14 maize cultivars (Zea mays L.) at several temperatures. The temperature coefficients of q and RCO2 differ within a given cultivar and also differ among the cultivars. Both q and RCO2 exhibit an isokinetic temperature of 20 ± 3 °C. The measured temperature dependences of q and RCO2 were used to model the temperature dependences of both growth and substrate carbon conversion efficiency. This procedure may be useful in determining the suitability of cultivars for growth in a given climate and in understanding metabolic adaptation to climate.

    Investigation of the limitations to photosynthesis induced by leaf water deficit in field-grown sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) (1990)

    Notes: Abstract. The diurnal cycling of leaf water potential (Ψleaf) in field-grown sunflower (Helianthus annuus) was used to investigate the cause of water deficitinduced limitation of net photosynthesis. Daily midafternoon decreases in Ψleaf of up to 1.5 MPa and in net photosynthesis of up to 50% were typical for irrigated sunflower during seed filling. These midafternoon values were lowered an additional 0.6 to 0.8 MPa by prolonged drought treatment. There was a nearly linear relationship between the decline in net photosynthesis and reductions in leaf conductance over the course of the day. Thus, it was unexpected to find that the low, midafternoon rates of photosynthesis were associated with the highest intercellular CO2 concentrations. These and other observations suggest that the daily decline in photosynthesis represents a ‘down regulation’ of the biochemical demand for CO2 that is coordinated with the diurnally developing need to conserve water, thus establishing a balanced limitation of photosynthesis involving both stomatal and non-stomatal factors. There were no indications that either short term (i.e. diurnal declines in Ψleaf) or long term (i.e. drought treatment) water deficits caused any damage or malfunctioning of photosynthesis. Rather, both the daily declines in photosynthesis and the nearly 25% decrease in leaf area induced by prolonged drought appeared to be well-controlled adaptive responses by field-grown sunflower plants to limited water availability.

    Notes: Five ciliate species collected from the Woods Hole area were examined by protargol silver impregnation and scanning electron microscopy. These ciliates have been shown to sequester and use chloroplasts obtained from flagellate prey. One new species, Strombidium chlorophilum, is described. Four other species, Strombidium capitatum (Leegaard, 1915) Kahl, 1932, Strombidium conicum (Lohmann, 1908) Wulff, 1919, Strombidium acutum (Leegaard, 1915) Kahl, 1932, and Laboea strobila Lohmann, 1908, are redescribed. Characters used in describing the Strombidiidae include cell size and shape, anterior and ventral polykinetids, macronuclear shape and size, the kinetid “girdle,” the ventral kinety, the trichites, and the paroral kinety. The rationale for using these characters as taxonomic criteria is discussed.

    Proteins and Polysaccharides In the Nutrition of Paramecium Multimicronucleatun (1980)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    The @journal of eukaryotic microbiology 27 (1980), S. 0 
    Details

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Paramecium multimicronucleatum has been cultured for 20 years on a medium of salts, vitamins, amino acids, fatty acids, ribosides, and stigmasterol plus a little nondialyzable fraction (NDF) of baker's yeast. Fractionations of NDF identified 2 essentials: (a) in a fraction 〈 100,000 daltons which contained much protein and replaceable by ovalbumin and (b) in a fraction of 〈 300,000 daltons; this fraction contained much polysaccharide, replaceable by glycogen, which is 〉 300,000 daltons. For 2 years now P. multimicronucleatum has grown well with ovalbumin and glycogen replacing NDF. Besides ovalbumin, concanavalin A satisfies the protein requirement; this lectin attaches to sugar residues in glycogen. Studies with a fluorescent dye, PGA-1A, a stilbene derivative, provides further evidence for the polysaccharide requirement. This dye attaches to polysaccharides; when added to glycogen, and this in turn is added to a culture containing ovalbumin, fluorescent blue vacuoles appear within 2–3 h. When dye + glycogen were added to a culture without ovalbumin, no fluorescent vacuoles were found. A protein appears involved in formation of food vacuoles; this fits the pattern for endocytosis described in recent reviews. Besides glycogen, mannan gave good growth. Dextrin and amylopectin gave only fair growth through 7 serial transfers; glucose, maltose and amylose did not sustain growth. Strain 51 of P. tetratrelia, which grows well in NDF medium, grows well when NDF is replaced with ovalbumin and glycogen.

    PREHENSILE USE OF PERIORAL BRISTLES DURING FEEDING AND ASSOCIATED BEHAVIORS OF THE FLORIDA MANATEE (TRICHECHUS MANATUS LATIROSTRIS) (1998)

    Notes: The use of perioral bristles (modified vibrissae) by 17 captive Florida manatees and approximately 20 wild manatees was analyzed. Captive manatees were fed six species of aquatic vegetation normally eaten in the wild (four freshwater species and two seagrasses). Inanimate objects were placed in the holding tanks with manatees at Lowry Park Zoological Gardens (Tampa, FL) to determine the degree to which perioral bristles were used in exploration and to define the range of manipulative behavior. In addition, behavioral observations were made on the use of perioral bristles during social interactions with conspecifics. Observations were recorded using a Hi8-format video camera. Florida manatees possess an unusually large degree of fine motor control of the snout and perioral bristles. The large and robust perioral bristle fields of the upper lip were used in a prehensile manner during feeding. Bristle use by manatees feeding on submerged vegetation differed from that seen during feeding on floating vegetation. Other behavioral use of the perioral bristles shows variation depending upon the situation encountered. The degree of plasticity of perioral bristle use supports our hypothesis that the vibrissal-muscular complex of the Florida manatee has evolved to increase the efficiency of grazing and browsing on aquatic vegetation and to fully maximize the potential of the manatee as a generalist feeder. The manipulative and sensitive nature of the manatee snout is likely a manifestation of a complex sensory and motor system which has evolved for marine mammal aquatic herbivores living in shallow turbid habitats.

    Radionuclide dating of the recent sediments of Blelham Tarn (1976)

    Notes: Lake sediments of the last 1000 years provide a unique record of environmental changes. Methods of dating this record are reviewed and discussed. Sediments of the last 20 years, which are of particular biological significance because of their record of man-made changes in lakes (including enrichment and pollution) have been dated successfully by the distribution within them of the fallout product 137Cs, present in the atmosphere since 1954 and reaching a peak of supply in 1963. The structured pattern shown by the curve for 137Cs concentration in most sediments investigated indicates that faunal mixing of the surface muds does not destroy the vertical stratification of the sediment profile.Sediments up to 120 years old have been dated by a lead isotope technique, and the results of this proved consistent with both 137Cs dating and with palaeomagnetic dating where this was possible.Theoretical considerations of the application of radiocarbon dating to organic material of 18th and 19th century date are reviewed.Results of application of these radionuclide techniques to the sediments of a small lake, Blelham Tarn, near Windermere, are presented. Evidence from 137Cs and 210Pb dating of profiles from several different positions within the lake shows that the depth of the annual increment to the sediments varies by a factor of × 2 from place to place. The concentration within the sediment of chemical and biological variables shows no significant variation from one position to another; therefore calculated values for amounts of each variable included within unit area of the annual increment depend primarily on the thickness of this at the site chosen, and so cannot be directly related to the rates of supply of, for example, pollen grains or total organic matter, and so to rates of productivity.Results from nine 14C dates on material 400–1000 years old, when correlated with analyses for pollen and sediment composition, demonstrate the profound effects of agricultural practices in the catchment (assumed to be deforestation and ploughing) in disturbing the orderly transfer to lake sediments of material eroded from the catchment.

    Effects of nutrients and grazers on periphyton phosphorus in lake enclosures (1989)

    Notes: SUMMARY. 1. Periphyton. measured as particulate phosphorus (PP) and expressed as periphyton PP, growing on vertically oriented substrata (polyvinyl impregnated nylon) under different nutrient loadings, light intensities (exposures), and grazer communities was examined in eight large enclosures (750 m3) where nutrients (N and P) and planktivorous fish (1+yellow perch) were added in a 2x2 factorial design.2. During the first 3 weeks of the experiment (25 June to 15 July), there was a significantly higher accumulation of phosphorus into periphyton (periphyton PP) with fertilization, but fish addition had no effect. During the fourth to seventh weeks (16 July to 12 August), addition of fish was associated with lower abundance of amphipods and chironomids and higher concentration of periphyton PP. In the enclosures without fish, these invertebrates were over 25 times more abundant, and periphyton PP decreased substantially compared to the June-July period. Fertilization increased periphyton PP only at high exposures in the enclosures with fish.3. Exposure had a significant effect on periphyton PP. In the enclosures with fish, high abundance of nanoplankton reduced water transparency, and periphyton PP was lower in the deeper waters which may have been due to limitation by low light. Lower periphyton PP was also observed at the surface on sunny sides of enclosures without fish, and therefore with high water transparency. This pattern may have been due to inhibitory effects of high light intensity.4. Periphyton communities in the enclosures with fish had higher uptake rates for planktonic phosphorus, and lower rates of phosphorus release, suggesting that periphyton with high phosphorus demand may have high internal cycling of assimilated phosphorus.
