    Notes: . Phytomonas sp. membranes have an adenylyl cyclase activity which is greater in the presence of Mn2+ than with Mg2+. The Mg2+ and Mn2+ activity ratio varies from one membrane preparation to another, suggesting that the adenylyl cyclase has a variable activation state. A [35S]GTP-γ-S-binding activity with a Kd of 171 nM was detected in Phytomonas membranes. Incubation of these membranes with activated cholera or pertussis toxin and [adenylate 32P]NAD+ led to incorporation of radioactivity into bands of about 40–44 kDa. Crude membranes were electrophoresed on SDS-polyacrylamide gels and analyzed, by Western blotting, with the 9188 anti-αs antibody and the AS/7 antibody (anti-α1, anti-αi1, anti-αi2). These procedures resulted in the identification of polypeptides of approximately 40–44 kDa. Phytomonas adenylyl cyclase could be activated by treatment of membrane preparations with cholera toxin, in the presence of NAD+, while similar treatment with pertussis toxin did not affect this enzyme activity. These studies indicate that in Phytomonas, adenylyl cyclase activity is coupled to an unknown receptor entity through Gαs, proteins.

    Notes: The encystment of Laurenliella acuminata was divided into five stages: stage A (precystic semitransparent cell with dark-globules), stage B (precystic transparent cell), stage C (precystic pigmented cell), stage D (spherical shape without cyst wall) and stage E (young resting cyst), on the basis of observations of changes in morphology and pigmentation during encystment. The duration of these stages was also established. Observations by electron microscopy confirmed that the cyst wall, composed of four layers, is derived from different kinds of precursors which are synthesized “de novo.” The ectocyst precursors are composed of stacks of between 5 and 12 small thin plates or discs; these stacks are about 0.9 μm in length and 0.06 μm in height. The mesocyst precursors are fibrillar bodies of variable shapes, about 2.4 μm in maximum length and 0.12–0.16 μm in diameter. These precursors appear in the cytoplasm of the precystic cell during the first precystic stage (stage A). The endocyst precursors are rounded bodies surrounded by a fine membrane, and their contents appeared similar to the endocyst. The granular layer precursors are spherical bodies about 0.1–0.2 μm in diameter, surrounded by a double membrane presenting ribosomes adhering to its outer membrane. Both endocyst and granular layer precursors are observed in the precystic cytoplasm from stage B. On the basis of ultrastructural studies, a formation and growth model of the cyst wall of the hypotrichous ciliate Laurentiella acuminata is proposed.

    Notes: Abstract. We investigated whether a Na-K polyacrylate polymer could be used to remediate a sandy soil artificially contaminated with copper. An experiment, carried out in solution culture, showed that ionic copper was rapidly trapped within the polymer to a maximum content of c. 190mg Cu g -1 dry polymer, the proportion needed for chelation of each copper ion by four carboxylic groups present in the polymer chains. Cu-EDTA was not retained by the polymer. Growth of perennial rygrass in 10 kg pots was stimulated in the gel-amended soil, and even in the pots with the highest levels of copper, growth was much less impaired than in pots without polymer. Copper concentrations of the shoot.; were smaller in the plants cultivated in the amended soil. Water extractable copper was considerably reduced in the contaminated gel-amended soil and polymer particles removed from the soil were shown to contain high levels of copper.

    Notes: Abstract. We investigated whether a polyacrylate polymer could be used to remediate a soil which had been contaminated with copper for many years. Perennial ryegrass was grown in a loamy sand containing 230 mg ammonium-acetate-EDTA extractable Cu kg−1 and amended with 0, 0.1 and 0.2% of polymer. Growth of perennial ryegrass was stimulated in the polymer-amended soil, especially in the soil with 0.1% of polymer. After plant growth for 177 days, the amount of water extractable copper present in the unamended soil was 17 times that of the original soil. In the soil amended with 0.1% of polymer the level of copper after plant growth was only 0.11 times the amount present in the unamended soil. When the soil was incubated with polymer in the absence of plants, the level of water extractable copper was not reduced. The polymer seems to compete with plants for copper, and to prevent the increase of copper in soil solution brought about by root exudates.

    Notes: Sedimentary rocks beneath the Columbia River Basalt Group are recognized as having potential for oil and gas production, but the overlying layered basalts effectively mask seismic reflections from the underlying sediments. Four electromagnetic (EM) methods have been applied on profiles crossing Boylston Ridge, a typical east–west trending anticline of the Yakima Fold Belt, in an attempt to map the resistivity interface between the basalts and the sediments and to map variations in structure and resistivity within the sediments. The EM surveys detected strong variations in resistivity within the basalts, and in particular the continuous magnetotelluric array profiling (EMAP) revealed resistivity lows beneath the surface anticlines. These low resistivity zones probably coincide with fracturing in the core of the anticlines and they appear to correlate well with similar zones of low seismic velocity observed on a nearby seismic profile.The controlled-source EM surveys (in-loop transient, long-offset transient, and variable-offset frequency-domain) were designed in anticipation of relatively uniform high resistivity basalts, and were found to have been seriously distorted by the intrabasalt conductors discovered in the field. In particular, the resistivity sections derived from 1D inversions were found to be inconsistent and misleading. The EMAP survey provided the most information about the subsurface resistivity distribution, and was certainly the most cost-effective. However, both controlled-source and EMAP surveys call for accurate 2D or 3D inversion to accommodate the geological objectives of this project.

    Notes: The effects of plant harvest stage, autumn harvest dateand cultivars on alfalfa production and quality weredetermined in a 3-year field experiment established in1992. Harvesting stage influenced annual yield andquality. Late bud-first flower harvests increased harvestfrequency and forage quality in comparison with har-vestingat the full bloom stage while decreasing dry-matteryield by 18% (25·5 vs. 21·6 t ha 21 ). Harvestingstage significantly affected autumn forage productionand quality and yield at the first spring cut. Harvests atfull bloom allowed greater autumn and spring regrowththan cutting at the late bud stage, possibly because ofthe accumulation of higher root reserves. Autumn har-vestsand cultivar significantly influenced the yields atthe first spring cut in any growing season. Cuttingbefore the first frost in autumn reduced the vigour ofboth cultivars, and the subsequent yield at the first cutin any year, in comparison with harvests taken after ornear the first autumn frost. It is concluded that theeffects of the stage of harvesting alfalfa on dry-matterproduction and quality are important in theMediterranean environment of the Ebro Valley; theeffects of autumn management were observed mainlyon the yields of the subsequent first cut in spring but noton the total annual production.

    Notes: The specific characteristics of the public health care sector prevent the normal working of the market and the trend toward the efficient provision of services. The present study was carried out to offer the Audit Office of the Basque Country and Navarra an objective point of reference from which to measure the efficiency of clinical services. This study consists of an evaluation of the efficient production and utilization of the resources—intermediate services—that hospitals provide to medical staff for carrying out the diagnosis and treatment of patients, together with the efficient use of these intermediate services by the aforementioned medical staff.

    Notes: Soymilk made from lipoxygenase-free soybeans had less cooked beany aroma, less cooked beany flavor and less astringency and was rated darker and more yellow than that made from soybeans with normal lipoxygenase. Sensory descriptive panelists noted no differences between lipoxygenase-free and normal soybeans for milky flavor, wheat flavor, thickness, chalkiness or aftertaste. Tofu made from lipoxygenase-free soybeans had less cooked beany flavor than that made from normal soybeans. There were no differences in cooked beany aroma, raw beany aroma, raw beany flavor, wheat flavor, astringency, hardness, darkness or yellowness. Native-born Japanese, Chinese and U.S. descriptive panelists differed in responses to flavor, texture and color of soymilk and tofu.

    Notes: The soil seedbank of a wheat crop grown with four tillage systems (mouldboard plough, disk, chisel and no-tillage) for 3 years was analysed. Density and composition of seedbanks varied according to tillage system and depth. The mouidboard plough crop had seedbanks with the lowest seed density and there was no difference in density or composition at 0-5 cm and 5-10 cm depth whereas no—tillage had a more dense seed bank, especially in the upper part of the soil profile. Diversity of seedbanks also increased from mouidboard plough, to disk, to chisel, to no-titlage, which had the most diverse bank. Therefore, the data strongly support the hypothesis that the systems causing less disturbance allow the build-up of a larger and more diverse soil seed bank.
