    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The influence of several factors on breeding success, nesting behaviour, density and selection of nesting sites was investigated on a study plot of 128 km2 in northeastern Bavaria (Bayreuth, Oberfranken). The position to human settlement is the most important factor: Magpies within settlements showed a higher breeding success and density than outside (Tab. 5); the habitat (rural, urban, outskirts) was less important. Potential predators (GoshawkAccipiter gentilis, Carrion CrowCorvus corone corone) had no effect, Probably because of its low densities. The relation to colonies of the Fieldfare (Turdus pilaris) is interpreted as a common use of grassland as feeding site during the breeding season (Tab. 5). Magpies seem to avoid the vicinity of forests (Tab. 4). The altitude had only a slight effect on breeding success and nesting behaviour. Among several factors which refer to the nesting site (tree type, height, exposition, period of leaf break, nest type) only the nest age had a clear (positive) effect on breeding success. Magpies preferred higher trees for nest-building (Tab. 4). The influence of other factors (density of nest sites, hunting, character of trees) and the relation between the different factors are discussed.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Auf einer Fläche von 128 km2 im Raum Rayreuth (Oberfranken) wurde der Einfluß verschiedener Faktoren auf Bruterfolg, Nestbau, Siedlungsdichte und Nistplatzwahl der Elster durch multivariable statistische Methoden geprüft. Größte Bedeutung kam der Lage zur Siedlung zu: Elstern innerhalb von Siedlungen hatten einen vergleichsweise höheren Bruterfolg und eine höhere Siedlungsdichte. Das Habitat (Stadt, Stadtrand, Land) spielte demgegenüber eine geringere Rolle. Ein Einfluß potentieller Feinde (Rabenkrähe, Habicht) war (vermutlich wegen zu geringer Dichte) nicht erkennbar. Die mögliche Beziehung zur Wacholderdrossel wird als gemeinsame Nutzung von Grünland als wichtigste Nahrungsquelle diskutiert. Waldrandnahe Standorte wurden gemieden. Die Höhenlage hatte nur einen geringen Einfluß auf Bruterfolg und Nestbauverhalten. Von verschiedenen das Nest betreffenden Parametern (Baumtyp, Baumhöhe, Exposition, Blattaustrieb, Nestausbau, Nestalter) hatte nur das Nestalter einen deutlichen positiven Effekt auf den Bruterfolg. Bei der Wahl eines Nistplatzes war die Baumhöhe die einzig erkennbare wichtige Größe: Elstern nutzten höhere Bäume als dem durchschnittlichen Angebot entsprach. Die Bedeutung anderer Faktoren (Nistplatzangebot, Jagd) und die Beziehung zwischen den verschiedenen Parametern wird diskutiert.

    Notes: Abstract We have attempted to elucidate the natural history of pulmonary aspergillus intracavitary colonization (PAIC) based on more than 350 cases of the disease observed in the last 11 years and on data collected from the literature. The data indicate that PAIC is a dynamic process consequent to the continual growth and death of fungal elements and also with their relationships to the anatomic features of the cavity (valvular mechanisms, vascular alteration). The clinical presentations reflect immunological changes in the host. Metabolites produced by the species of Aspergillus involved affect the clinical presentation of the syndrome.

    Notes: Abstract Traditional hay-meadows in the Alps and fens at the edge of the Alps are habitats for many rare and endangered butterfly species. Conservation efforts aim at preserving these species, but the biotopes depend on regular mowing, which in turn requires intensive financial support. The feasibility of substituting mowing of these sites by grazing is discussed and considered as a more cost effective management type which produces agriculturally valuable goods as well. In this study the butterfly fauna of mown and grazed sites were compared. Species composition, species number, and the occurrence of rare species under the two management types were in most cases rather similar for both grassland ecosystems. Nevertheless, there are hints that for single rare species this might not be true. Additionally, at one site, grazing intensity on a former hay-meadow was too high to preserve the species-rich community. Overall the results are encouraging: grazing does not have to be as detrimental as formerly thought, although details (compartments of pastures, intensity) still have to be confirmed. Experimental grazing management of aban-doned grasslands of the studied types should be started.

    Notes: Abstract The water permeabilities of 3174 astomatous, isolated cuticular membranes from Citrus aurantium L. leaves were studied. Trees were grown in environmental chambers at temperatures ranging from 15 to 35° C and humidities of 50% and 90%. Photosynthetically active radiation was 500–1000 μmol photons·m−2· s−1. The different growing conditions had no effect on the water permeability of the membranes. However, storing isolated cuticular membranes at 8° C for up to 112 weeks decreased their water permeability, and it is argued that this is a consequence of the healing of defects between wax crystallites, and also indicates the dynamic nature of cuticular waxes.

    Notes: Abstract Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is often associated with an impaired maximal coronary blood flow and increases the vulnerability of the heart tissue to ischaemia. In this study, the correlation between coronary blood flow and expression of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNA was investigated. Using both haemodynamic measurements and analysis of mRNA, we have demonstrated that during development of LVH, in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), an impaired maximal coronary flow at 12 weeks of age is associated with low levels of VEGF mRNA. However, in older SHR (32 weeks) with stabilised hypertrophy and a normal maximal coronary flow response, VEGF mRNA levels are increased three-fold. These results suggest that the mechanism for the impaired flow, observed in some types of cardiac hypertrophy, might involve an inadequate growth of the coronary vessels due to insufficient activation of the VEGF gene.

    Notes: Summary AURELIA is an advanced program for the computer-aided evaluation of two-, three- and four-dimensional NMR spectra of any type of molecule. It can be used for the analysis of spectra of small molecules as well as for evaluation of complicated spectra of biological macromolecules such as proteins. AURELIA is highly interactive and offers a large number of tools, such as artefact reduction, cluster and multiplet analysis, spin system searches, resonance assignments, automated calculation of volumes in multidimensional spectra, calculation of distances with different approaches, including the full relaxation matrix approach, Bayesian analysis of peak features, correlation of molecular structures with NMR data, comparison of spectra via spectral algebra and pattern match techniques, automated sequential assignments on the basis of triple resonance spectra, and automatic strip calculation. In contrast to most other programs, many tasks are performed automatically.

    Notes: Abstract The concentrations of B, Ca, Co, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, P, Zn and agar were determined in samples of the red alga,Pterocladia capillacea, collected during one year in three distinct locations having different hydrologic characteristics, close to the city of Arraial do Cabo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Pattern recognition methods showed that, although these concentrations are subject to temporal variations, they are more dependent on the location from which the samples were collected. Algae from locations with high human activity were richer in P, B, Co, Zn and agar than those from other locations.
