    Notes: Abstract It is well known that the microstructure of metal-matrix composite materials is significantly different from that of the unreinforced matrix. Heat treatments which optimized strength values in the matrix therefore, no longer do so in the composite. It is thus beneficial to find these variations in the heat treatment process, and to pinpoint the microstructural mechanisms responsible. It is known that, in addition to a higher dislocation density, the composite also has a very fine grain size and many whisker interfacial nucleation sites. This study has found that the time required for solutionizing appears to be much shorter in the composite primarily due to the very small grain size. It was also observed that artificial ageing was not very effective in the composite since the precipitates nucleated and grew on the whisker interfaces, therefore, only natural ageing was necessary to achieve peak tensile and yield strengths.

    Notes: Abstract An interesting cubic-shaped precipitate was observed in the matrix of a squeeze-cast Al-4.3 wt % Cu-2.0 wt % Mg/SiC composite which was heat-treated to a T7 condition. Although this phase had been observed by a few investigators in the past, it had never been examined in detail until now. This cubic phase generally had an edge length ranging from 30 to 50 nm and existed in volume fractions as high as 3.8%. Theoretical strengthening models predicted this phase to have good potential for precipitate strengthening. In addition, the cubic phase exhibited a low rate of coarsening at temperatures as high as 250 °C; apparently due to its low interfacial energy. Consequently, this cubic precipitate shows potential for increasing the useful temperature range of aluminium alloys and composites and could be of great importance to the aerospace and automotive industries.

    Notes: Summary The complex structure of the multigene family at the Mla locus conferring powdery mildew resistance in barley was studied by making diallel crosses between several near-isogenic lines carrying different Mla alleles. The mode of inheritance of the Mla alleles investigated was determined to be dominant for Mla1, Mla6, Mla7 and Mla13 and semidominant for Mla3, Mla12 and Mla20. F1 plants were backcrossed to the susceptible recurrent parent in order to identify susceptible and double-resistant recombinants in the BC1F1 generation. Out of 17605 progenies tested in the BC1F1 generation, two susceptible recombinants, one between Mla1 and Mla12 and one between Mla13 and Mla20 were confirmed. The former was also verified by RFLP analysis.

    Notes: Summary To identify the mildew resistance locus Mla in barley with molecular markers, closely linked genomic RFLP clones were selected with the help of near-isogenic lines having the ‘Pallas’ and ‘Siri’ background. Out of 22 polymorphic clones 3 were located around the Mla locus on chromosome 5 with a distance of 5.1 + 2.9 cM (MWG 1H068), 4.2±1.7 cM (MWG 1H060) and 0.7 ± 0.7 cM (MWG 1H036), respectively. The polymorphic clone MWG 1H036 displayed the same RFLP pattern in both ‘Pallas’ and ‘Siri’ near-isogenic lines and in different varieties digested with six restriction enzymes possessing the same mildew resistance gene. The alleles of the Mla locus were grouped in 11 classes according to their specific RFLP patterns; 3 of these groups contain the majority of Mla alleles already used in barley breeding programs in Europe.

    Notes: Abstract The variability of crops, soils, and pests within crop production fields has led to attempts to understand those variations and to manage crop production accordingly. The rapidly expanding research and development on the management and control of crop production according to in-field variations is reviewed. The various stages and components of this spatially-variable control are classified and presented along with a proposed terminology and notation. Advances in component technologies (sensors, actuators, locators, geostatistics, geographic information systems) and their integration should reduce crop production costs and be environmentally advantageous.

    Notes: Abstract An Al-4.3 wt% Cu-2.0 wt% Mg alloy reinforced with 20 vol% reinforcing fibres was examined after a T7 heat treatment. The expected precipitate phase was equilibrium S′ (Al2CuMg), which was confirmed to form in the monolithic alloy. However when this Al-Cu-Mg alloy was squeeze-cast into a fibre preform and given an identical T7 heat treatment a number of other phases also nucleated; these included θ′ (Al2Cu), β′ (Mg2Si) and the cubic σ phase (Al5Cu6Mg2). These additional phases were determined to nucleate and grow rapidly during the water-quench following solution treatment. The existence of excess Si (approximately 0.5 wt%) in the matrix was determined to be responsible for nucleation of these additional phases. This extra Si entered the composite matrix during squeeze-casting through breakdown of an SiO2 layer which existed at the fibre interfaces. During quenching Si clusters rapidly form and provide nucleation sites for the σ and θ′ phases. The Si clusters apparently created a compressive strain in the matrix which attracted a high concentration of small Cu atoms to their interface. The σ phase nucleated in this high-Cu region since, on a localized scale, σ became the equilibrium phase. This type of nucleation process may also explain the enhanced precipitate nucleation which occasionally takes place in other alloy systems when trace amounts of certain elements are added.

    Notes: Summary In a phase II study, 77 patients with metastatic breast cancer were treated with pirarubicin, 70 mg/m2 iv every 3 weeks. Most of them had received prior hormonal (n = 39) and/or chemotherapeutic drug treatment for advanced disease, including anthracycline-containing regimens in 17. After a median of 5.5 treatment cycles (range 1–14), objective tumor response was seen in 22/71 (31%) evaluable patients (4CR, 18 PR). Stable disease occurred in 34 (48%) patients, whereas the tumor progressed in 15 (21%). Significant hematologic toxicity (WHO grade III–IV) requiring interval and/or dose adjustments was observed in 41 (58%) patients. Other treatment-related side effects were generally mild, and included alopecia in 52 (73%), nausea and/or emesis in 50 (70%), and stomatitis and diarrhea in 3 patients each. There was no treatment-related death, nor was there any evidence of cardiac toxicity thus far. In summary, the early results of this trial suggest that pirarubicin is an active and rather well tolerated drug in pretreated patients with advanced breast cancer.

    Notes: Abstract The increasing use of nonselective mechanical harvesters of fruit requires sorting the fruit on firmness. A model and computer program were developed based upon Hertzian impact theory which can predict the impact force function for a spherical fruit hitting a simply supported beam. The model was exercised to observe the effects of beam dimensions and fruit characteristics, including firmness, on the force function. Experimental work showed that measurements from a strain gage on the impacted beam can be used to determine the force function. The measured force function approximated the function predicted by the impact theory model. This work indicated that by the proper design of a sensing beam, fruit firmness may be sensed.
