    Notes: Survey data collected during a grassland-recording investigation showed a strong positive correlation between nitrogen input and the output of utilized starch equivalent per acre. At the levels of output covered, sward type was not very important in relation to total yield. Herbage species were important for other reasons and the choice of seeds mixtures should be determined by factors such as earliness and lateness of growth and resistance to disease and drought. The survey showed that well-managed ley and permanent pasture are both capable of producing at a high level. A disturbing feature of the results was the low production of most spring resowings, primarily as a result of poor management. Although the records were obtained from an above-average group of farms, the results have general application. Potential responses to fertilizers may be even greater on less intensive farms, especially with regard to phosphate and potash. However, the level of production of a field will always depend finally on the level of management exercised by the farmer himself.

    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.

    Description: In increasingly fragmented landscapes, it is important to understand how mature forest affects adjacent secondary forest (forest influence). Forest influence on ecological succession of beetle communities is largely unknown. We investigated succession and forest influence using 235 m long transects across boundaries between mature and secondary forest at 15 sites, sampling a chronosequence of three forest age classes (5-10, 23-29 and 42-46 years since clearcutting) in tall eucalypt forest in Tasmania. Our results showed that ground-dwelling beetle communities showed strong successional changes, and in the oldest secondary forests, species considered indicators of mature forest had re-colonised to abundance levels similar to those observed within adjacent mature forest stands. However, species composition also showed forest influence gradients in all age classes. Forest influence was estimated to extend 13 m and 20 m in the youngest and intermediate aged secondary forests, respectively. However, the estimated effect extended to at least 176 m in the oldest secondary forest. Our environmental modelling suggests that leaf litter, microclimate and soil variables were all important in explaining the spatial variation in beetle assemblages, and the relative importance of factors varied between secondary forest age classes. Mature forest beetle communities can recolonise successfully from the edge and our results provide a basis for land managers to build mature habitat connectivity into forest mosaics typical of production forests. Our results also indicate the importance of forest influence in determining potential conservation value of older secondary forest for beetles. # doi:10.1890/14-0334.1

    Description: A series of computer microtomography experiments are reported which were performed by using a third-generation synchrotron radiation source on volcanic rocks from various active hazardous volcanoes in Italy and other volcanic areas in the world. The applied technique allowed the internal structure of the investigated material to be accurately imaged at the micrometer scale and three-dimensional views of the investigated samples to be produced as well as three-dimensional quantitative measurements of textural features. Thegeometryof thevesicle (gas-filledvoid) network in volcanic products of both basaltic and trachytic compositions were particularly focused on, as vesicle textures are directly linked to the dynamics of volcano degassing. This investigation provided novel insights into modes of gas exsolution, transport and loss in magmas that were not recognized in previous studies using solely conventional two- dimensional imaging techniques. The results of this study are important to understanding the behaviour of volcanoes and can be combined with other geosciences disciplines to forecast their future activity.

    Description: Motor innervation to the tetrapod forelimb and fish pectoral fin is assumed to share a conserved spinal cord origin, despite major structural and functional innovations of the appendage during the vertebrate water-to-land transition. In this paper, we present anatomical and embryological evidence showing that pectoral motoneurons also originate in the hindbrain among ray-finned fish. New and previous data for lobe-finned fish, a group that includes tetrapods, and more basal cartilaginous fish showed pectoral innervation that was consistent with a hindbrain-spinal origin of motoneurons. Together, these findings support a hindbrain–spinal phenotype as the ancestral vertebrate condition that originated as a postural adaptation for pectoral control of head orientation. A phylogenetic analysis indicated that Hox gene modules were shared in fish and tetrapod pectoral systems. We propose that evolutionary shifts in Hox gene expression along the body axis provided a transcriptional mechanism allowing eventual decoupling of pectoral motoneurons from the hindbrain much like their target appendage gained independence from the head.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Optimal assay conditions are described for 8 hydrolases of Euglena gracilis var. bacillaris, SM-L1 (streptomycinbleached) strain, 7 of which have an acid pH-optimum. Acid phosphatase, β-galactosidase, β-glucosidase, β-fucosidase, cathepsin D, RNase, DNase, and an esterase are active in cell homogenates. Amylase has very low activity, and β-glucuronidase, arylsulfatase, β, N-acetyl-glucosaminidase, α-fucosidase, and α- and β-mannosidase are inactive.Hydrolase activity increases as a culture proceeds from the midexponential to the late stationary-phase of growth, being most pronounced in the case of β-glucosidase. In cultures deprived of a utilizable carbon source, the specific activities of the hydrolases (per mg total protein or dry weight) increase. When expressed on a per cell basis, however, the activities of DNase decrease while those of β-galactosidase, cathepsin D, and RNase increase. The hydrolases appear to be involved in the adaptation of Euglena to the metabolic demands imposed by different conditions of growth.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Heme, intrinsically required by Trypanosomatidae, is unstable, especially in conventional alkaline (pH 7.2–8.0) media. Low solubility of heme in a pH 6.5 basal medium (developed to assay biopterin with Crithidia fasciculata) posed a problem: in media acidified during growth because of glycolysis, heme precipitated, perhaps contributed to acid-limited growth and interfered with densitometric estimation of growth. The remedy was to: replace glucose with less rapidly metabolized mannitol; distribute media in thin layers to promote oxidation of acetate, fumarate, and malate (presumably leaving an alkaline residue); and buffer heavily with histidine + Good zwitterionic buffers, and superimpcse physiological buffering by arginine + asparagine whose catabolism appeared to yield an excess of NH+4 over acid. Thereupon, Fe and Cu deficiencies sharply limited growth in the medium whose main chelators were: (a) 2,3–dihydroxybenzoic + 5-sulfosalicylic acids (which preferentially bind transitional elements at their higher valences; (b) malic and gluconic acids; and (c) histidine. With unconventionally heightened concentrations of Fe, Cu, and Mo (the latter serving as Cu buffer as well as nutrient per se), the hemin concentration could be lowered, widening the margin of safety for heme solubility. Growth then reached 1.4 × 108 cell/ml. This medium may serve to screen for ligands promoting uptake or release of Fe and Cu. The increased growth is a step towards improving the assay medium for biopterin and practical use of Crithidia to assay several B vitamins and essential amino acids for metazoa.
