    Notes: In early log phase cultures of several of the drug-resistant mutants of Crithidia fasciculata that we have previously obtained, a high percentage of cells attach in pairs at the base of the flagellum. This process, which we have termed “flagellar adherence,” lasts for several hours in some cases and occasionally involves changes in cell morphology. The attachment occurs optimally in gently agitated cultures. Flagellar adherent pairs can be disassociated by vigorous agitation; the pairs reappear in the culture within one to three h after disassociation. These paired forms can be clearly distinguished from the normal cell division forms. Clones of flagellar adherent-competent mutant strains are uniformly able to form these pairs in culture. A low percentage of flagellar adherent forms can be induced in wild type cells by glucose starvation.

    Notes: : In order to determine design capacities for various components of municipal and rural domestic water supply systems, engineers must estimate water requirements for an entire year (water rights), for the peak season (reservoir storage), for the peak day (pump or treatment plant size), and for peak hour (pipeline sizes). Historically, per capita water use rates have varied greatly between systems, particularly in semiarid regions where outdoor demands are large. The resulting uncertainty in design capacity estimates can cause either inadequate capacities or premature investment. In order to minimize that uncertainty multiple regression and frequency analyses were made of the various water demand parameters mentioned above for 14 systems in Utah and Colorado. Specifically, demand functions are reported for average month, peak month, and peak day. Peak hour demands were also studied but are reported in a different paper. The independent variables which were significant for monthly and daily demands were price of water and an outdoor use index which includes the effect of variation in landscaped area and accounts for use of supplementary ditch or pressure irrigation systems. The demand functions were developed with data from systems varying in size from very small low density rural systems to Salt Lake City's water system. The correlation coefficients (R2) vary from 0.80 to 0.95.

    Notes: : Errors inherent in the conputation of water surface profiles are magnified by the shallow lateral slopes typical of most flood-plains, producing significant floodplain mapping errors. An economic optimization procedure which weighs the cost of overstating the location of a floodplain boundary against the cost of understanding the location provides a means for establishing the boundary location. In most cases the cost of overstating the boundary location exceeds the cost of understating the location by several magnitudes so that the boundary location should coincide with the minimum water surface elevation which would be expected to result from a flood of specified recurrence interval.

    Notes: SUMMARY. A method is described whereby ephippia (sexual eggs plus protective membranes) are experimentally induced at low food levels (≤ 0.05 mg spinach D. magna-1), high female culture-densities (≤ 0.4 D. magna ml-1) and in short-day photoperiods (L:D 〈 12:12, 12°C). The density-dependent ephippial response was related to an increased encounter rate between females at the higher densities. External metabolites had no significant effect on ephippia production. Ephippia were formed in the second generation after exposure to short day-lengths. Five clones from the same population exhibited genetic variation in their critical photoperiods for induction of sexual reproduction (≥= 10% ephippia). There was evidence of a genetic difference in photoresponse between two populations of D. magna. The evolution of timing mechanisms for ephippia production are discussed in relation to the predictability of environmental change.

    Notes: Abstract The chemical compositions of a number of halophytes from salt marshes on Ynys Môn (Anglesey), Wales, and of some related mesophytes and sand dune plants have been determined. Analyses of the inorganic ions broadly confirmed the existence of a characteristic chemical composition of many monoco-tyledonous salt-marsh plants in that they contain high levels of potassium and relatively low levels of sodium. In contrast to most dicotyledonous halophytes, especially members of the Chenopodiacease, the monocots restrict the entry of inorganic ions and use high levels of soluble sugars to maintain an adequate solute potential. Low calcium levels were not found to be a feature of these plants, as was previously reported. The large amounts of sugars found in the monocotyle-donous plants suggested that they must be located mainly in the vacuoles, in contrast to glycinebetaine which is thought to accumulate principally in the cytoplasm of the salt accumulating Chenopodiaceae. The monocotyledonous halophytes which accumulate proline differ from the normal monocotyledonous physiotype in the accumulation of larger quantities of sodium. Triglochin maritima is one species of this type, and Puccinellia maritima a less extreme example. Spartina spp. accumulating glycinebetaine and β-dimethyl-sulphoniopropionate also have unusually high inorganic ion contents for monocots. Several salt marsh plants contained large quantities of amino acids other than proline. As with ionic composition, the nature of the organic solutes broadly followed taxonomic lines. The usefulness of the physiotype concept is discussed.

    Notes: Oxygen consumption of carp acclimated at 10 and 20° C has been measured under routine conditions. Some complications and precautions necessary in continuous flow respirometry are discussed. Routine Vo2 at different levels of hypoxia have been determined. Individual variation leads to scatter in the data and different methods of plotting the relationship between Vo2 and Po2 are proposed; attention is drawn to differences between inlet (or ambient) Po2 and inspired Po2. Using certain criteria a ‘critical’ oxygen tension of about 95 mm Hg was found at 20° C; Q10 values are about 2 at normoxia and some suggestions of an increase near to the critical oxygen tension were found. Blood samples from the dorsal aorta showed rising Pa,o2 of 16 mm Hg which increased to 70–80 mm Hg when Pinsp was 90 and they then fall as the inspired oxygen is lowered. During periods of deep hypoxia (25 mm Hg) blood lactate concentration increases steadily and indicates an increasing dependence on anaerobic mechanisms.

    Notes: A three day experiment compared angling returns for rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri Richardson, using fly, spinner and worm fishing methods. The catches of these methods were most similar on the first day: 3.36/h, 2.61/h and 3.75/h for spinner, fly and worm fishing, respectively. Catch rates on subsequent days declined, but less so for worm fishing. Overall, the worm fishing method returned the highest catch rate and estimates of catch rates for a year on a trout fishery also indicated that this method returned the highest catch rate.

    Notes: A study of the structure of the gills using light and transmission electron microscopy showed that though the basic organisation of the filaments and secondary lamellae is very similar to that of other bony fishes, there was also a number of unusual features. Most of the blood channels of the secondary lamellae remain embedded in the tissue of the primary lamellae. The secondary lamellar surface is increased by the presence of irregular expansions which may be referred to as tertiary lamellae. The presence of an unusual structure on one side of many secondary lamellae was observed; this structure might possibly be due to the presence of a parasite. The possible functional significance of these observations is discussed and indicates the need for morphometric and experimental investigation of the respiration of this species.

    Notes: To determine the effect of dietary selenium on the mutagenicity of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed rat chow or Torula yeast diets supplemented with 0.0, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, and 5.0 ppm Se as Na2SeO3, and the 9000 ×g liver supernatants were used in Salmonella/microsome mutagenesis assays. The rats were fed on the diets for 4 wk and, prior to killing, half the rats in each group received 80 mg phenobarbital/kg body weight in their drinking water for four consecutive days. Phenobarbital administration tended to increase the mutagenicity of AFB1 in all dietary treatment groups. This increase was significant only in the chow-fed groups, however. Addition of selenium to the basal diet produced no significant effect on liver-mediated mutagenicity. The liver preparation from chow-fed animals which had received phenobarbital produced the highest mutagenicity of the samples tested.
