    Notes: SYNOPSIS. We demonstrated previously microbodies in Euglena gracilis grown in the dark on 2-carbon substrates. We have now established in Euglena the particulate nature of enzymes known in other organisms to be localized in microbodies (glyoxysomes and leaf peroxisomes). On a linear sucrose gradient the glyoxylate cycle enzymes band together at a nigner equilibrium density (1.20 g/cm3) than mitochondrial marker enzymes (1.17 g/cm3), establishing the existence in Euglena of glyoxysomes similar to those of higher plants. Glyoxylate (hydroxypyruvate) reductase and, under certain conditions, also glycolate dehydrogenase co-band with the glyoxylate cycle enzymes, suggesting that Euglena glyoxysomes, like those of higher plants, may contain peroxisomal-type enzymes. Catalase, an enzyme characteristic of microbodies from a variety of sources, was not detected in Euglena.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. We demonstrated previously the presence of glyoxysomes containing the glyoxylate cycle enzymes in Euglena gracilis grown in the dark on ethanol. We have now established that the glyoxysomes of Euglena grown on hexanoate also contain the following enzymes of the pathway for β-oxidation of fatty acids: hexanoyl-CoA synthetase, 3-β-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase and thiolase. Estimations of specific activities indicate that these enzymes are over 20 times as active in glyoxysomes as they are in mitochondria, suggesting that the β-oxidation of fatty acids occurs almost entirely in Euglena glyoxysomes under these conditions. Thus, the entire portion of the gluconeogenic pathway from fatty acid to succinate is localized in the glyoxysome of Euglena.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Electron microscope and time lapse, phase contrast cinematography studies on Babesia equi organisms within equine red blood cells revealed that this hemoprotozoon has two organelles possibly involved with ingestion of nutrients: a cytostome that takes in hemoglobin from the host cell and a tubule that extends from the main body of the parasite through the erythrocyte to the blood plasma and appears to ingest plasma during periods of rapid growth and development.

    Notes: Abstract We explore evolutionarily stable co-evolution of host-macroparasite interactions in a discrete-time two-species population dynamics model, in which the dynamics may be stable, cyclic or chaotic. The macroparasites are assumed to harm host individuals through decreased reproductive output. Hosts may develop costly immune responses to defend themselves against parasites. Parasites compete with conspecifics by adjusting their fecundities. Overall, the presence of both parasites and the immune response in hosts produces more stable dynamics and lower host population sizes than that observed in the absence of the parasites. In our evolutionary analyses, we show that maximum parasite fecundity is always an evolutionarily stable strategy (ESS), irrespective of the type of population interaction, and that maximum parasite fecundity generally induces a minimum parasite population size through over-exploitation of the host. Phenotypic polymorphisms with respect to immunity in the host species are common and expected in ESS host strategies: the benefits of immunication depend on the frequency of the immune hosts in the population. In particular, the steady-state proportions of immune hosts depend, in addition to all the parameters of the parasite dynamics only on the cost of immunity and on the virulence of parasites in susceptible hosts. The implicit ecological dynamics of the host-parasite interaction affect the proportion of immune host individuals in the population. Furthermore, when changes in certain population parameters cause the dynamics of the host-parasite interaction to move from stability to cyclicity and then to chaos, the proportion of immune hosts tends to decrease; however, we also detected counter-examples to this result. As a whole, incorporating immunological and genetic aspects, as well as life-history trade-offs, into host-macroparasite dynamics produces a rich extension to the patterns observed in the models of ecological interactions and epidemics, and deserves more attention than is currently the case.

    Notes: Abstract The cockroach is known to possess several morphologically distinct types of sensilla on its antenna, each of which contain a couple or a few receptor cells that respond to an array of compounds. We recorded the response of cells exclusively from one type of sensillum to evaluate the variation in the response of the cells in these sensilla to three closely related alcohols and their binary mixtures. Our results indicate that cells within the class of those responsive to aliphatic alcohols are otherwise variable in their response to particular aliphatic alcohols and not easily classifiable into subclasses. They also indicate that patterns of responses among cells are not robust with respect to concentration. Finally, a considerable level of inhibition is indicated in the response of the receptor cells to binary mixtures compared with the response to pure odorants. The data suggest that discrimination of alcohols (and other odorants of general but not special significance) by the cockroach cannot be understood simply in terms of labeled lines or linear filters.

    Notes: Summary Several types of leaves of leaf parts lacking chlorophyll were fixed and embedded according to conventional procedures and examined electron-microscopically for microbodies. Comparisons of relative abundance of microbodies, plastids and mitochondria were made by computing the average numbers of organelle profiles per cell section. Similar leaves were homogenized and assayed for three enzymes characteristic of leaf peroxisomes. The localization of these enzymes in microbodies was indicated for the achlorophyllous tissues by the positive result obtained when 3,3′-diaminobenzidine was used as an electron cytochemical stain for catalase activity. Microbodies were present in all non-photosynthetic leaves or leaf parts examined, including yellowish-white segments of variegated leaves, albino leaves, and etiolated leaves of two species. In several cases, the numbers of microbody profiles per cell section were as great in the achlorophyllous leaves as in the chlorophyllous. The levels of peroxisomal enzyme activity in the yellowish-white leaves were substantial, although often not as high as in the green leaves. It was concluded that enzymatically these microbodies are probably similar to the peroxisomes characterized from chlorophyllous leaves. In the absence of the photosynthetic product, glycolate, however, it seems unlikely that the organelle is performing the same functions as in green leaves. It is also apparent that the initial formation of peroxisomes in leaves can occur when neither light nor a photosynthate such as glycolate is present as an inducer.

    Notes: Abstract The 5′- and 3′-flanking regions of HPRA, a cucumber gene that encodes hydroxypyruvate reductase, were evaluated for regulatory activity with respect to light responsiveness and organ specificity. To define the functional regions of the 5′-flanking region of HPRA, a series of deletions was generated and the remaining portions fused to the β-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene (uidA) containing a minimal 35S promoter truncated at −90. The region from −66 to +39 was found to be necessary for light-regulated expression of the uidA reporter gene, while the region from −382 to −67 was found to be necessary for its leaf-specific expression. Further deletion of the HPRA 5′ flanking region to −590 resulted in high levels of root expression, suggesting the presence of a negative regulatory element responsible for silencing root expression of the HPRA gene between −590 and −383. The 3′-flanking region of the HPRA gene downstream of the polyadenylation site contains several sequence motifs resembling regulatory elements present in the promoters of several light-responsive genes. An 823 bp portion of the HPRA 3′-flanking region containing these putative regulatory elements enhanced GUS expression in leaves when placed downstream of the uidA reporter gene in the forward orientation, but not in the reverse orientation. When placed 5′ of the −90 35S promoter, the 823 bp fragment enhanced slightly, independently of orientation, the root tip-specific expression pattern intrinsic to the −90 35S promoter, indicating that in some cases this region can act as a transcriptional enhancer.
