    Notes: SUMMARY. Temperature and current discharge regulated phytoplanktonic concentration, chlorophyll-a concentration, the light-saturated rate of photosynthesis (Pmax), and photosynthetic capacity (Pcap) in the Mississippi River at Prairie Island, Minnesota. The chlorophyll-a maximum was 48 mg m−3 in 1975, a wet year with a high current discharge, and 190 mg m−3 in 1976, a relatively dry year. The highest values of Pmax were 0.37 (mgO2 I−1h−1) in 1975 and 1.60 in 1976. Pcap varied from 3 to 21 (gO2 per g chlorophyll-a h−1) both years, and its value was highly correlated with temperature. The temperature optimum shifted from 16°C for Pcap in the spring, to greater than 28°C in the summer. Multiple regression analysis indicated a second-order relationship of Pcap in the spring to temperature. Other independent variables explained only negligible variation of Pcap.

    Notes: SUMMARY. Ochromonas malhamensis (Pringsheim strain) can be grown above 35.5°C.; below 35°, the previous chemically defined medium supports dense growth. The B12 and thiamine requirements rise steeply with temperature, and growth promotion by folic acid emerges; folic acid spares the enhanced B12 requirement. B12 is spared also, perhaps wholly bypassed, by purines + pyrimidines + amino acids (below 35°, exogenous purines, pyrimidines, and folic acid have little effect). Requirements also emerge for glycine (spared by serine), valine and isoleucine (their ratio is critical; leucine and threonine assist in maintaining a good balance), and, at very slightly higher temperatures, phenylalanine, tryptophan, cystine, and lysine. Requirements for Mg, Fe, Zn, and Mn appear to rise steeply with temperature; metal toxicities have to be circumvented carefully. The proportion of histidine + arginine to carbohydrate has to be increased, and a Krebs-cycle component such as succinic acid becomes stimulatory. At 36.3–36.7°, a further supplement of crude natural materials such as an autoclaved suspension of Ochromonas cells is needed. Relevance of these findings to fever stress in vertebrates, general mitochondrial function, and repair of radiation damage, is discussed.

    Notes: SUMMARY. Haemoproteus columbae of English wood pigeons (Columba palumbus palumbus L.) was found to undergo sporogony in Ornithomyia avicularia. It is suggested that this insect is a vector of H. columbae, in spite of the failure of six attempts to transmit the haemosporidian to uninfected domestic pigeons (C. livia var. domestica) by the bite, or injection, of infected O. avicularia.

    Notes: The influence of defoliation on the root, stubble and herbage weights of perennial ryegrass during establishment was studied on spaced plants in the greenhouse and field.In the greenhouse trial the rate of root elongation was reduced by a single defoliation. In both the field and greenhouse, cutting reduced the number of roots and tillers per plant but increased the number of roots per tiller. A few weeks after defoliating plants in the field there was a lower root weight on the cut plants than on the uncut. Eventually the influence of a single cut disappeared, but if the cutting was in the laie summer or autumn the plants commenced the winter with a smaller amount of root and stubble, and this appeared to have a deleterious effect on the earliest spring growth.Herbage growth in March and April was positively correlated with both root and stubble weights in the previous November.As the number of cuts during the establishment period (March-November) was increased from 0–4 the root and stubble weight per plant progressively decreased.The root and stubble weights decreased during the winter.

    Notes: Two experiments are described in which two levels of winter feeding and three levels of herbage allowance during the grazing season were imposed upon March/April calving British Friesian dairy cows. The winter treatments resulted in differences in live weight and milk yield at turnout of 35 and 53 kg and 3·4 and 3·2 kg d-1 for the two trials. Subsequently, when grazed at generous herbage allowances, the cows were able to compensate for much of this difference but when herbage was restricted the milk yield differences were accentuated.Groups of cows from each winter treatment were offered 25, 50 or 75 (Experiment 1) and 30, 50 or 70 (Experiment 2) g herbage DM per kg LW daily during the grazing season. Daily herbage intakes on the three allowances in each trial were 14·1, 13·3, 10·7 and 12·5, 12·1, 11·5 kg OM and milk yields were 16·0, 15·3, 12·5 and 15·2, 14·3, 11·8 kg SCM respectively. Both intake and milk production were depressed once the cows were forced to consume more than 50% of herbage on offer or to graze the sward down to a mean height of less than 8–10 cm. Grazing behaviour observations indicated that under rotational managements the cows did not compensate for restrictions in available herbage by grazing longer. Highest levels of milk production per unit area were observed in both trials when production per cow was depressed by 20–25%.

    Notes: The effects of cutting on the root, stubble and herbage growth of perennial ryegrass during establishment was studied under sward conditions.Although a few weeks after a cutting treatment there was a smaller root weight on the cut than on the uncut swards, this difference eventually disappeared.By the autumn the frequently cut swards had considerably more plants and tillers per unit area than the uncut plots. As a result of these changes in plant density the root weight per unit area of the sward was not decreased by increasing the cutting frequency during establishment. However, the root weight per plant (and per tiller) was decreased by increases in the cutting frequency.The root and stubble weights increased during the spring, summer and early autumn of the first year and decreased during the winter. In the second season the root weight increased to a maximum in December whilst the stubble weight rose during the spring and summer and decreased after September.Although the percentage of total soluble carbohydrate was consistently higher in the stubble than the roots or herbage the quantity was similar in both roots and stubble, and in these organs the major soluble carbohydrate was fructosan.During the winter both the percentage and the total quantify of soluble carbohydrate in the stubble and roots decreased considerably.Herbage growth in February and March was not correlated with the root weight per unit area in the previous autumn but was positively correlated with the root weight per plant. The highest herbage yield in the early spring came from plots which were leniently treated in the previous autumn: these plots had a low plant and tiller density but the root weight per plant or per tiller was relatively high.In April the rate of herbage growth tended to be positively correlated with the sward density. In May and June the highest herbage yields came from the open swards. It was suggested that during this latter period moisture, and/or nitrogen, may have been the limiting factor, so that the open sward benefited from less interplant competition.

    Notes: SUMMARY. Growth of Lemna minor fronds in the River Frome during summer was found to be logarithmic with time and the growth rate (log10) was 0.066 day−1. This is equivalent to a doubling time of 4.5 days. The life expectancy of the fronds was 34 days.The net change in the density of bacteria epiphytic on the lower surface of Lemna fronds in the R. Frome was monitored using a direct microscopic technique. The observed increase in bacterial numbers has been partitioned into the components of attachment and growth, assuming that attachment occurred at a constant rate and that the bacterial population grew logarithmically. The line which fitted the data best gave an attachment rate of 5.7 × 105 bacteria cm−2 day−1 and a growth rate (log10) for the bacteria of 0.044 day−1 which is equivalent to a doubling time of 164 h.Estimates of the rate of detachment of bacteria from Lemna plants were obtained from a laboratory experiment which assumed negligible growth of bacteria in 1 h. The number of bacteria which detached per hour and the sizes of the bacterial populations on the plants before and after detachment were estimated using a plating technique. Different detachment rates were monitored. The detachment rate (analogous to growth rate) which is judged to be most similar to an in situ value was 0.0031 h−1 (0.074 day−1). This rate added to the specific growth rate given above resulted in a corrected growth rate of 0.118 day−1 equivalent to a doubling time of 61 h.

    Notes: Friesian heifers grazing Cenchrus ciliaris cv. Biloela were supplemented with 0, 3 or 6 kg concentrates daily during weeks 10–34 (±1·7) of lactation during either the rainy or the dry season. The overall responses to concentrate were identical between seasons at 0·27 kg extra milk and solids corrected milk per kg. Supplementation increased total feed intake and modified the grazing behaviour of cows. For each kg concentrate organic matter eaten, herbage organic matter intake was reduced by 0·64 and 0·42 kg in the rainy and dry seasons respectively and the time spent grazing by 11 min. Higher intakes in the dry season were the result of an increased rate of biting and were reflected in liveweight change but not milk yield.

    Notes: The shelf life of both refrigerated ground and mechanically deboned poultry meat was extended by 2 days using the resting cells of the starter cultures Pediococcus cerevisiae (Accel) and Lactobacillus plantarum (Lactacel DS). The microbial population of the treated sample was 10% of that of the control at the onset of “off-odor” in the control. The lactic acid bacteria (LAB) did not decrease the pH of the meat. Fluorescent psychrotrophic colonies were not detected in the treated samples, but were present in the control. P. cerevisiae in Buffered Brain Heart Infusion Broth (BBHI) inhibited Pseudomonas fluorescens and Pseudomonas putrefaciens more than Pseudomonas fragi. L. plantarum in BBHI inhibited the growth of P. fluorescens and P. fragi and caused P putrefaciens to lose its ability to form colonies on Tryptic Soy Agar. The meat starter cultures in BBHI totally inhibited the growth of Salmonella typhimurium and Staphylococcus aureus at 15°C. Using the “spot on the lawn” technique both LAB produced an antagonistic agent only against S. aureus.
