    Notes: Summary A re-examination of earlier NPK fertilization experiments in Douglas fir stands on sandy soils shows the effects of high nitrogen input by air pollution during the last 10–15 years on plant nutrition at these sites. In 1960, experimental plots showed a positive growth reaction to nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilization. All suffered from severe phosphorus deficiency in 1984, low phosphorus in the needles was invariably accompanied by a high nitrogen content, with all N/P ratios between 20 and 30. The same conclusion emerges from an independent investigation of nutrient status of a selection of Douglas fir stands. Hence, if stand productivity and a balanced nutrient status of the trees is to be maintained, the increase in atmospheric input of nitrogen calls for supplementary fertilization. Given the current N/P ratios in the needles, a positive growth response to phosphorus fertilization is to be expected.

    Notes: Summary The release of organic materials by roots of maize and wheat was studied using a growth chamber with a14CO2 atmosphere at constant total CO2 concentration and constant specific activity. The distribution of14C within shoots, roots and soil was determined for both plants after 4 and 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, 1.5% of the total amount of14C fixed by maize was found as a residue in the soil, while for wheat this figure was 2.0%. Rhizosphere14CO2 production was measured in a second experiment and plants were harvested after 3, 4, 5 and 6 weeks growth. The rhizosphere14CO2 evolution by wheat accounted for some 20% of the total amount of fixed14C and was a constant value throughout the growth period. Root-derived products were slowly incorporated by the soil microbial biomass to a maximum of 20% of the residual soil14C content after 6 weeks growth.

    Notes: Summary Water-soluble14C-labelled organic material, released into soil from roots of wheat and maize plants, was recovered with a mild percolation technique, without disturbing the root-soil interface. Extraction yields were relatively high for the14C materials (up to 11% of residual soil14C for 6 weeks maize) illustrating the water soluble character of the freshly added material. The complexation potential of the soil extracts was evaluated by adding57Co,65Zn and54Mn to the extract and determining their distribution among the organic fractions by a gel filtration technique. The results show that within four weeks a micro-environment is created around a plant root, characterized by an accumulation of root-derived organic materials. In parallel with this time dependent accumulation, a gradual shift from ionic metal to higher molecular weight forms occurred. The three metals were increasingly complexed throughout the growth period. Extracts from a fallow soil complexed minor amounts of the added tracer (6.4%; 1.9% and 0.2% for57Co,65Zn and54Mn respectively) while cropped soil extracts after 6 weeks complexed 61%; 16% and 6% of respectively Co, Zn and Mn in the case of maize, and 31%, 15% and 1% in the case of wheat. Although the effects are most pronounced in the case of Co and maize, evidence is given for similar effects with wheat and the other metals. The results indicate that the physicochemical status of transition metals in the rhizosphere is entirely different from that in the bulk soil.

    Notes: Summary Acetic acid production over 10 days from fresh barley straw was greater than that from fresh wheat straw, but there were only minor consistent differences between different cultivars. The effect depended on the soil type on which the straw had been produced and acid production was greatest with the largest amounts of N fertilizer which had been used. The fertilizer also affected the C:N ratio of the straw

    Notes: Summary Laurel Sumac (Rhus laurina) is a dominant member of the coastal chaparral community of southern California that survives periodic burning by wildfires by resprouting from a lignotuber (root crown). We investigated the physiological basis for resprouting by comparing shoot elongation, leaf nitrogen content, tissue water status, leaf conductance to water vapor diffusion, and photosynthetic rates of post-fire R. laurina to those of adjacent unburned shrubs. Resprouts had higher rates of shoot elongation, leaf conductance, and photosynthesis than mature, unburned shrubs. Leaf nitrogen contents were elevated in burned shrubs even though their leaves developed interveinal chlorosis. A comparison of soil water potential to predawn water potential indicated that roots of R. laurina remain active below 2 m during the first summer drought after wildfire. Our results support the hypothesis that lignotubers not only contain dormant buds that develop into aerial shoots after wildfire but they also supply nutrient resources that enhance shoot elongation. Because R. laurina is relatively sensitive to drought, yet very successful in its rapid recovery after fire, maintaining an active root system after shoot removal may be the primary function of the massive lignotuber formed by this species.

    Notes: Summary Leaves from many misletoe species in Australia strongly resemble those of their hosts. This cryptic mimicry has been hypothesized to be a means of reducing the likelihood of mistletoe herbivory by vertebrates. Leaf Kjeldahl nitrogen contents (a measure of reduced nitrogen and thus amines, amino acids and protein levels) of mistletoes and their hosts were measured on 48 mimetic and nonmimetic host-parasite pairs to evaluate hypotheses concerning the significance of crysis versus noncrypsis. The hypothesis that mistletoes mimicking host leaves should have higher leaf nitrogen levels than their hosts is supported; they may be gaining a selective advantage through crypsis (reduced herbivory). The second hypothesis that mistletoes which do not mimic their hosts should have lower leaf nitrogen levels than their hosts is also supported; they may be gaining a selective advantage through noncrypsis (reduced herbivory resulting from visual advertisement of their reduced nutritional status).

    Notes: Summary The construction and molecular analysis of four recombinant clones — pTa1, pTa2, pTa7, and pTa8 — is described. The four clones contain different highly repeated sequences of genomic DNA from Triticum aestivum variety ‘Chinese Spring’. The wheat specificity has been determined by colony and dot blot hybridization in comparison with total rye DNA (Secale cereale variety ‘Petka’). The four clones with a variable degree of specificity were compared by sequence analysis after the recloning of wheat DNA inserts into M13 mp8. Within the sequencing data a tendency can be observed that those repeated sequences which show the highest degree of species specificity contain a significantly increased amount of GC residues.

    Notes: Summary Calli were initiated from immature embryos of four lines of hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell), the euplasmic nuclear donor ‘Chinese Spring’, ‘Chinese Spring’ in which both 4B chromosomes were substituted by those of the variety ‘Cappelle-Desprez’ and two alloplasmic lines in which these nuclei were substituted into the cytoplasm of Aegilops ovata. The calli were found to differ in their initia growth rates and their ability to organise shoot primordia and regenerate shoots. The ‘Cappelle’ 4B chromosomes had a very significant effect on all these characters. The potential for modelling genotypes for improved tissue culture characteristics is discussed.

    Notes: Summary Calli were initiated from immature embryos of eight lines of hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell) with different cytoplasms, the euplasmic nuclear donor ‘Chinese Spring’ and seven alloplasmic lines derived from wild relative species of the genera Triticum and Aegilops. The calli were found to differ in their initial growth rates, their sensitivity to 2,4-D and their ability to organise shoot primordia, demonstrating that the cytoplasm can significantly affect the behaviour of tissues in culture. The potential for improving the responses of tissues in culture by cytoplasmic changes is noted.

    Notes: Summary Wheat roots from germinating seedlings of Chinese spring wheatTriticum aestivum grown for 36 hours at 20°C were examined by conventional thin-section electron microscopy. Virus-like particles were seen inside a large cytoplasmic intrusion into the nucleus having the appearence of a nucleolar vacuole. The particles were isometric and about 50 nm in diameter with a membrane-like coat and a small core. The cytoplasmic intrusion was bounded by nuclear envelope with pores apparent where it abutted nucleoplasm. The particles are similar to previously reported solitary particles “S bodies” from a range of plants but are also similar in size and morphology to the retroposon particles associated with copia like elements in other organisms. The position of the virus-like particles in the young wheat roots is discussed in relation to interactions with components of the cell skeleton.
