    Notes: Using dark-field transmission electron microscopy images of ordered GaInP samples, we show how the ordering domain size depends on the growth temperature. Samples with different average domain sizes are compared with regard to their photoluminescence (PL) and excitation spectra. We find a close correlation between the size of the ordered domains and the relative intensity of the PL peak from band–band recombination compared with the rapidly shifting, below-band-gap luminescence emission. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The diffusion length of minority charge carriers in the silicon bulk Ldiff is an important characteristic of optoelectronic devices fabricated from low cost silicon wafers. In this study computer simulations have been carried out to calculate the beneficial effects of a macroscopic surface texturization on the charge carrier generation and the collection probability. Textured solar cells should be able to collect charge carriers more effectively resulting in an increased current due to the special emitter geometry resulting from the texture, decreased reflection losses, and the inclined penetration of the light. In order to prove this expected behavior, deeply V-textured solar cells have been processed and characterized on low cost silicon reaching an Ldiff of about 25 μm. Spatially resolved high resolution measurements of the internal quantum efficiency exhibit a strongly increased signal in the texture tips which is the first experimental proof of the increased charge carrier collection probability of deeply textured solar cells. This effect can further be seen in cross sectional electron beam induced current measurements and the mechanical texture results in an overall gain in short circuit current density of about 11% and in efficiency of about 8% relatively. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract. Bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP-4) is a vital regulatory molecule that functions throughout human development in mesoderm induction, tooth development, limb formation, bone induction, and fracture repair and is overexpressed in patients who have fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva. The human gene encoding bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP-4) has been isolated and its structural organization characterized. The complete DNA sequence of an 11.2 kb region has been determined. BMP-4 mRNA is transcribed from four exons, although there is evidence that alternate first exons may be used. Transcript initiation occurs at variable positions within a GA-rich region of the DNA. The promoter region is GC-rich with no obvious TATA or CAAT consensus sequences, and contains both positive and negative transcriptional regulatory elements within the 3 kb 5′ flanking region of the RNA start site. Comparison of the human and murine BMP-4 genes reveals highly conserved sequences not only in the exon-coding regions but also within the introns and 5′ flanking regions. BMP-4 localizes to human chromosome 14q21 by fluorescence in situ hybridization, a location more centromeric than that recently reported. These studies provide a foundation for understanding the genetic regulation of this important gene in human development.

    Notes: Abstract  Hot weather challenges livestock production but technology exists to offset the challenge if producers have made appropriate strategic decisions. Key issues include understanding the hazards of heat stress, being prepared to offer relief from the heat, recognizing when an animal is in danger, and taking appropriate action. This paper describes our efforts to develop biological response functions; assesses climatic probabilities and performs associated risk analyses; provides inputs for computer models used to make environmental management decisions; and evaluates threshold temperatures as estimates of critical temperature limits for swine, cattle and sheep.

    Notes: Abstract Under controlled environmental conditions in nutrient solution experiments induction of non-constitutive callose in roots has been shown to be a symptom of aluminium (Al) toxicity. In the present study roots of Norway spruce were sampled from a forest site where soil conditions had been modified by acidic irrigation and liming (Höglwald Experiment in Bavaria, Germany). A significant positive relationship was found between the callose content in short roots and the Al concentration in the soil solution, particularly if free Al, rather than total concentrations of soluble Al, were used for prediction. At the same sites root growth of Norway spruce was not affected by free Al concentrations in the range of 2.5 to 199 µM Al. The results show that also under field conditions a positive relationship between Al supply and callose content can be established. In Norway spruce callose content in roots is a much more sensitive parameter for Al supply than root growth.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of acid irrigation and liming on fine root growth of Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) was studied in an approximately 80-year-old forest stand in southern Germany (Höglwald). Root growth was measured mainly on root windows and in addition by soil core sampling. Root growth rate showed a typical pattern in the course of a year with a maximum in August. Acid irrigation depressed root growth rate, whereas liming, particularly in combination with acid irrigation, markedly increased root growth in the humic layer and the upper 0–5 cm of the mineral soil. The treatment effects on root growth in the mineral soil below 5 cm were small and not significant. Root growth rate was not correlated with the concentration of aluminium (Al) or the molar ratio of calcium (Ca) to Al in the soil solution. The results suggest that inhibition of root growth by acid irrigation is a direct effect of high proton concentrations in the irrigation water, and that enhancement of root growth by liming is caused by an improved supply of mineral nutrients and higher biological activity.

    Notes: Abstract The longterm effect of acid irrigation and liming (dolomitic limestone) on the mineral element content of roots of Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) was investigated in an 80-year-old Norway spruce stand in South Germany (Bavaria). Soil cores of four soil depths (humic layer, 0–10, 10–20 and 20–30 cm) were taken over 2 years (August 1991 and August 1992) from six plots with different treatments (control, normal irrigation, acid irrigation solely or in combination with liming) and living short roots selected and analysed for calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn) and aluminium (Al). On the acid irrigated plot, the Ca and Mg contents of roots were decreased in 1991, but by 1992, 2 years after the irrigation had been terminated, no difference could be found. The Al content of the roots was not increased by acid irrigation but rose with increasing soil depth, regardless of treatment. Liming increased root contents of Ca and Mg and reduced contents of Mn and Al. This effect was especially distinct in the humic layer and decreased with increasing soil depth. Even though the molar Ca/Al-ratio in the roots in the mineral soil was generally low (0.09–0.52), no evidence of Al toxicity could be found. The formation of Al complexes is discussed as a reason for this behaviour.

    Notes: Abstract Nitrate reductase activities (NRA) and nitrate concentration per unit biomass in Picea abies (L.) Karst. roots from four different soil horizons and in leaves and roots of the frequent field-layer species Oxalis acetosella L. were measured on six different irrigation and liming treatments within the Höglwald project, S-Bavaria, Germany. Liming increased and acid irrigation reduced soil nitrate availability when compared to control plots. Nitrate assimilation capacities of the respective plant compartments per unit of soil volume or ground area were calculated from the NRA per unit of biomass and from the biomass distribution on the various treatments. Mean NRA per unit of biomass in Picea abies roots ranged between 0.23 and 0.09 μmol NO 2 - g-1 d.w. h-1 without significant effects of soil horizon or treatment. Limed and non-limed treatments showed for Picea different root distributions within the soil profile, but root biomass per unit of ground area (295 to 220 g d.w. m-2) was not affected by the various treatments. Thus, nitrate assimilation capacity of Picea roots per unit of ground area ranged between 19.5 and 11.4 μmol NO 2 - m-2 h-1 without major treatment effects. In laminae of Oxalis acetosella mean NRA per unit of biomass ranged between 2.91 and 0.27 μmol NO 2 - g-1 d.w. h-1 and, in contrast to Picea abies, treatment effects were found with NRA on limed plots increased and on acid irrigated plots reduced when compared to control plots. Mean leaf biomass of Oxalis per unit of ground area ranged between 9.57 and 0.66 g d.w. m-2 and responded in a similar manner to the various treatments. Thus, for the Oxalis leaf NRA per unit of ground area (27.85 to 0.18 μmol NO2 m-2 h-1) a cumulative response to the variations in nitrate availability was found. The different responses of Picea abies and Oxalis acetosella to changes in soil nitrate availability are discussed with respect to their suitability to prevent soil nitrate leaching.
