    In:  Supplement to: Ukstins Peate, Ingrid; Baker, Joel A; Kent, Adam J R; Al-Kadasi, Mohamed; Al-Subbary, Abdulkarim; Ayalew, Dereje; Menzies, Martin (2003): Correlation of Indian Ocean tephra to individual Oligocene silicic eruptions from Afro-Arabian flood volcanism. Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 211(3-4), 311-327, https://doi.org/10.1016/S0012-821X(03)00192-4

    Description: Widespread silicic pyroclastic eruptions of the Oligocene Afro-Arabian flood volcanic province (ignimbrites and airfall tuffs) produced up to 20% of the total flood volcanic stratigraphy (〉6*10**4 km**3). Volumes of individual ignimbrites and tuffs exposed on land range from ~150 to 〉2000 km**3 and eight major units (15-100 m thick) were erupted in 〈2 Myr, placing these amongst the largest-magnitude silicic pyroclastic eruptions on Earth. They are compositionally distinctive time-stratigraphic markers which were deposited as co-ignimbrite ashfall deposits on a near-global scale around the time of the Oi2 cooling anomaly at ~30 Ma. Two ignimbrites from the lower part of the flood volcanic succession in Yemen have been correlated to: (a) the conjugate rifted margin of Ethiopia (〉500 km distant); and (b) to two deep sea ash layers sampled by ODP Leg 115 in the Indian Ocean ~2700 km to the southeast. This correlation is based on whole rock analyses of silicic units for isotope ratios (Pb, Nd) and rare earth element compositions, in conjunction with novel in situ Pb isotope laser ablation multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy analysis of groundmass and glass shards. Compositional diversity preserved on the scale of individual ash shards in these deep sea tephra layers record chemical heterogeneity present in the silicic magma chambers that is not evident in the welded on-land deposits. Ages of the ash layers can be established by correlation to precisely dated on-land ignimbrites, and current evidence suggests that while these eruptions may have exacerbated already changing climatic conditions, they both marginally post-date the Oi2 global cooling anomaly.

    Notes: 〈list xml:id="l1" style="custom"〉1Severe or extreme droughts occurred about 10% of the time over a 105-year record from central New Mexico, U.S.A., based on the Palmer Drought Severity Index.2Drought lowers water tables, creating extensive areas of groundwater recharge and fragmenting reaches of streams and rivers. Deeper groundwater inputs predominate as sources of surface flows during drought. Nutrient inputs to streams and rivers reflect the biogeochemistry of regional ground waters with longer subsurface residence times.3Inputs of bioavailable dissolved organic carbon to surface waters decrease during drought, with labile carbon limitation of microbial metabolism a byproduct of drought conditions.4Decreased inputs of organic forms of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus and a decrease in the organic : inorganic ratio of nutrient inputs favours autotrophs over heterotrophs during drought.5The fate of autotrophic production during drought will be strongly influenced by the structure of the aquatic food web within impacted sites.

    Notes: Ecosystem fluxes of energy, water, and CO2 result in spatial and temporal variations in atmospheric properties. In principle, these variations can be used to quantify the fluxes through inverse modelling of atmospheric transport, and can improve the understanding of processes and falsifiability of models. We investigated the influence of ecosystem fluxes on atmospheric CO2 in the vicinity of the WLEF-TV tower in Wisconsin using an ecophysiological model (Simple Biosphere, SiB2) coupled to an atmospheric model (Regional Atmospheric Modelling System). Model parameters were specified from satellite imagery and soil texture data. In a companion paper, simulated fluxes in the immediate tower vicinity have been compared to eddy covariance fluxes measured at the tower, with meteorology specified from tower sensors. Results were encouraging with respect to the ability of the model to capture observed diurnal cycles of fluxes. Here, the effects of fluxes in the tower footprint were also investigated by coupling SiB2 to a high-resolution atmospheric simulation, so that the model physiology could affect the meteorological environment. These experiments were successful in reproducing observed fluxes and concentration gradients during the day and at night, but revealed problems during transitions at sunrise and sunset that appear to be related to the canopy radiation parameterization in SiB2.

    Notes: The life cycle of the nine-spined stickleback Pungitius pungitius from Airolo Lake, Alaska, was studied using samples taken during 1993–1994 and 1997–1998. Pungitius pungitius was actively reproducing in late May and ceased reproductive activities by late June. Spawning adults were 2+ years old. Contrary to an earlier report, the data indicate that an individual female oviposits all of her ovulated eggs (i.e. an entire clutch) into a male's nest during one spawning episode. There was a trade-off between clutch size and egg size without concomitant variation in clutch mass between two years. The results are compared to those from other studies.

    Notes: Pseudomonas syringae strains translocate effector proteins into host cells via the hrp-encoded type III protein secretion system (TTSS) to facilitate pathogenesis in susceptible plants. However, the mechanisms by which pathogenesis is favoured by these effectors are not well understood. Individual strains express multiple effectors with apparently distinct activities that are co-ordinately regulated by the alternative sigma factor HrpL. Genes for several effectors were identified in the P. syringae pv. tomato DC3000 genome using a promoter trap assay to identify HrpL-dependent promoters. In addition to orthologues of avrPphE and hrpW, an unusual allele of avrPphD was detected that carried an IS52 insertion. Using this avrPphD::IS52 allele as a probe, a wild-type allele of avrPphD, hopPtoD1, and a chimeric homologue were identified in the DC3000 genome. This chimeric homologue, identified as HopPtoD2 in the annotated DC3000 genome, consisted of an amino terminal secretion domain similar to that of AvrPphD fused to a potential protein tyrosine phosphatase domain. Culture filtrates of strains expressing HopPtoD2 were able to dephosphorylate pNPP and two phosphotyrosine peptides. HopPtoD2 was shown to be translocated into Arabidopsis thaliana cells via the hrp-encoded TTSS. A ΔhopPtoD2 mutant of DC3000 exhibited strongly reduced virulence in Arabidopsis thaliana. Ectopic expression of hopPtoD2 in P. syringae Psy61 that lacks a native hopPtoD2 orthologue delayed the development of several defence-associated responses including programmed cell death, active oxygen production and transcription of the pathogenesis-related gene PR1. The results indicate that HopPtoD2 is a translocated effector with protein tyrosine phosphatase activity that modulates plant defence responses.

    Notes: ClpX mediates ATP-dependent denaturation of specific target proteins and disassembly of protein complexes. Like other AAA + family members, ClpX contains an αβ ATPase domain and an α-helical C-terminal domain. ClpX proteins with mutations in the C-terminal domain were constructed and screened for disassembly activity in vivo. Seven mutant enzymes with defective phenotypes were purified and characterized. Three of these proteins (L381K, D382K and Y385A) had low activity in disassembly or unfolding assays in vitro. In contrast to wild-type ClpX, substrate binding to these mutants inhibited ATP hydrolysis instead of increasing it. These mutants appear to be defective in a reaction step that engages bound substrate proteins and is required both for enhancement of ATP hydrolysis and for unfolding/disassembly. Some of these side chains form part of the interface between the C-terminal domain of one ClpX subunit and the ATPase domain of an adjacent subunit in the hexamer and appear to be required for communication between adjacent nucleotide binding sites.

    Notes: Migratory banded kokopu Galaxias fasciatus juveniles exhibited an attraction to adult odours and an avoidance towards suspended sediment with a turbidity of 25 nephelometric turbidity units (NTU) in a two-choice chamber apparatus. When the adult odours were mixed with suspended sediment at a turbidity of 25 or 35 NTU, an attraction towards the odour and suspended sediment chamber resulted. When adult odours were paired with turbid water at 50 NTU, juveniles would avoid the odour and suspended sediment chamber. These results demonstrate adult pheromones can increase the threshold for an avoidance response to suspended sediment in banded kokopu juveniles. This provides supporting evidence that odours released by adult conspecifics may provide an important migratory cue for juveniles in stream and habitat selection.

    Notes: In Escherichia coli, 5′-terminal stem–loops form major impediments to mRNA decay, yet conditions that determine their effectiveness or the use of alternative decay pathway(s) are unclear. A synthetic 5′-terminal hairpin stabilizes the rpsT mRNA sixfold. This stabilization is dependent on efficient translational initiation and ribosome transit through at least two-thirds of the coding sequence past a major RNase E cleavage site in the rpsT mRNA. Insertion of a 12–15 residue ‘ectopic’ RNase E cleavage site from either the rne leader or 9S pre-rRNA into the 5′-non-coding region of the rpsT mRNA significantly reduces the stabilizing effect of the terminal stem–loop, dependent on RNase E. A similar insertion into the rpsT coding sequence is partially destabilizing. These findings demonstrate that RNase E can bypass an interaction with the 5′-terminus, and exploit an alternative ‘internal entry’ pathway. We propose a model for degradation of the rpsT mRNA, which explains the hierarchy of protection afforded by different 5′-termini, the use of internal entry for bypass of barriers to decay, ‘ectopic sites’ and the role of translating ribosomes.
