    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les réponses olfactives antennaires de Cydia caryana, mesurées par électroantennogrammes (EAG), aux alcools et acétates à carbones monounsaturés en positions 12 et 14, ont montré que le système conjugué de double liaison, (E)-8-, (E)-10- du dodecadien-1-ol acétate constitue un composé chimique strutural critique de la phéromone sexuelle de C. caryana. De plus, les acétates: (E)-8-dodecen-1-ol,(Z)-8-dodecen-1-ol,(Z)-9-dodecen-1-ol, et le (Z)-12-tetradecen-1-ol, se sont révélés en AEG comme des composés secondaires de la phéromone. L'étude par AEG de la relation dose-réponse a conduit à l'hypothèse de deux catégories de populations de récepteurs de phéromones. L'analyse comportementale des résponses des papillons mâles dans le tunnel de vol aux composés qui ont provoqués les plus forts AEG, on fait estimer que les acétates (E,E)-8,10-dodécadien-1-ol et (Z)-9-dodecen-1-ol ressemblent (ou sont) les constituants de la phéromone sexuelle de C. caryana; tandis que les (Z)-8-dodecen-1-ol et (E)-10-dodecen-1-ol sont, soit des paraphéromones, soit des constituants mineurs de la phéromone. La signification biologique du (Z)-12-tétradécen-1-ol a été difficile à interprêter avec les expériences en tunnel de vol.
    Notes: Abstract Electroantennogram (EAG) measurement of male Cydia caryana moth antennal olfactory response to monounsaturated 12 and 14 carbon alcohols and acetates indicated that the (E)-8-, (E)-10- conjugated double bond system of a dodecadien-1-ol acetate is a critical chemical structural component of the C. caryana sex pheromone. Additionally, EAG measurements implicated (E)-8-dodecen-1-ol acetate, (Z)-8-dodecen-1-ol acetate, (Z)-9-dodecen-1-ol acetate and (Z)-12-tetradecen-1-ol as potential minor pheromonal components. An EAG dosage-response study suggested that there were at least two heterologous populations of pheromone acceptors. Behavioral analysis of male moth response in a flight tunnel to compounds which evoked the stronger EAG responses suggested that (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-ol acetate and (Z)-9-dodecen-1-ol acetate resemble or are C. caryana sex pheromonal components, while (Z)-8-dodecen-1-ol acetate and (E)-10-dodecen-1-ol acetate are either parapheromones or are minor pheromone components. Behavioral significance of (Z)-12-tetradecen-1-ol was difficult to interpret in the flight tunnel.

    Notes: Abstract There maize nuclear DNA fragments were isolated on the basis of their ability to confer replication on chimeric plasmids in yeast. These Eco RI fragments of 2.5, 2.8 and 5.5 kb are repeated elements within the maize genome. The 2.5 and 2.8 kb fragments represent a family of elements repeated 11 000 times in the maize haploid genome, while the 5.5 kb fragment is part of another family of 28 000 elements. These fragments were subcloned to further define the unique region of ARS activity. The sequence of each 550–650 bp ARS subclone is reported here, and compared to the flanking regions which do not show ARS activity. The ARS elements are 65–70% A+T as compared to 50–55% for the maize genome as a whole. There is approximately 15% sequence divergence, as well as variation of ARS efficiency, among family members. ARS subclones contain the proposed yeast consensus sequence.

    Notes: Abstract Maize nuclear DNA sequences capable of promoting the autonomous replication of plasmids in yeast were isolated by ligating Eco RI-digested fragments into yeast vectors unable to replicate autonomously. Three such autonomously replicating sequences (ARS), representing two families of highly repeated sequences within the maize genome, were isolated and characterized. Each repetitive family shows hybridization patterns on a Southern blot characteristic of a dispersed sequence. Unlike most repetitive sequences in maize, both ARS families have a constant copy number and characteristic genomic hybridization pattern in the inbred lines examined. Larger genome clones with sequence homology to the ARS-containing elements were selected from a lambda library of maize genomic DNA. There was typically only one copy of an ARS-homologous sequence on each 12–15 kb genomic fragment.

    Notes: Abstract The pH history of lakes can be inferred from diatom remains in dated sediment cores. To derive transfer functions for pH inference in acidic lakes, we counted diatoms in surface-sediment from 31 soft-water lakes in n. New England (NE) and 36 in Norway (N), covering pH 4.4–7.1. Cluster analysis of each data set indicates that pH 6 is an upper limit for a group of similar diatom assemblages. For each set, we developed multiple linear regressions to relate three versions of the diatom data to pH of surface-waters: (1) relative frequencies of selected diatom taxa, (2) the first principal component (1 PC) of these frequencies, and (3) the frequencies of Hustedt pH groups. Also, simple linear regressions were developed for two versions: (1) Index B and (2) Index Alpha, both based on pH groups. Regressions were run separately for lakes with pH ≤ 6; these are most relevant for pH inference in acidic lakes. The best regressions (N: taxa & 1 PC taxa) have r2 0.69–0.91 and Se 0.24–0.31 pH units, the worst (NE: log alpha) have r2 0.27–0.57 and Se 0.51. In all cases, errors for NE are greater than N, partly due to greater diversity of NE lakes. Regressions based on pH groups (directly & by indices) have smaller r2 and larger Se than those based on taxa and 1 taxa. The Index Alpha is least useful because its requirement for alkaline diatom units is unsatisfied at many acidic lakes. Regressions based on taxa may give erratic pH inferences due to sensitivity to unusual frequencies of individual taxa; this effect is reduced by using 1 PC taxa. Four regressions based on pH ≤ 6 lakes were used for inferring pH in a 210Pb dated core from Nedre Målmesvatn, N (now pH 4.6). There is good agreement among three of the four (not for the regression based directly on taxa) that there has been a decrease of ca. 0.6 pH units starting in the late 1800's.

    Notes: Abstract With 3-O-methylfluorescein phosphate (3-OMFP) as substrate for the phosphatase reaction catalyzed by the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, a number of properties of that reaction differ from those with the common substratep-nitrophenyl phosphate (NPP): theK m is 2 orders of magnitude less and the Vmax is two times greater, and dimethyl sulfoxide (Me2SO) inhibits rather than stimulates. In addition, reducing the incubation pH decreases both theK m and Vmax for K+-activated 3-OMFP hydrolysis as well as theK 0.5 for K+ activation. However, reducing the incubation pH increases inhibition by Pi and the Vmax for 3-OMFP hydrolysis in the absence of K+. When choline chloride is varied reciprocally with NaCl to maintain the ionic strength constant, NaCl inhibits K+-activated 3-OMFP hydrolysis modestly with 10 mM KCl, but stimulates (in the range 5–30 mM NaCl) with suboptimal (0.35 mM) KCl. In the absence of K+, however, NaCl stimulates increasingly over the range 5–100 mM when the ionic strength is held constant. These observations are interpreted in terms of (a) differential effects of the ligands on enzyme conformations; (b) alternative reaction pathways in the absence of Na+, with a faster, phosphorylating pathway more readily available to 3-OMFP than to NPP; and (c) a (Na+ + K+)-phosphatase pathway, most apparent at suboptimal K+ concentrations, that is also more readily available to 3-OMFP.

    Notes: Abstract We report the identification of the southwestern corn borer,Diatraea grandiosella Dyar (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), female sex attractant pheromone as a mixture of (Z)-9-hexadecenal, (Z)-11-hexadecenal, and (Z)-13-octadecenal in the ratio 21.5∶70.6∶7.9. Initially, six 16- and 18-carbon aldehydes includingn-hexadecanal, (Z)-9-octadecenal, (Z)-11-octadecenal, and the three above were isolated from female gland rinses and evaluated as potential pheromone components by GLC-MS and laboratory bioassays. By laboratory flight chamber and field tests, the stated mixture of (Z)-9-hexadecenal, (Z)-11-hexadecenal, and (Z)-13-octadecenal was shown to be as effective as the female for male attraction. Electrophysiological studies confirmed the requirement for these three compounds, but not forn-hexadecanal, (Z)-9-octadecenal, and (Z)-11-octadecenal.

    Notes: Abstract Electroantennogram (EAG) responses of maleRhopobota naevana (Hübner), the blackheaded fireworm, to all of the monoene straightchain 12- and 14-carbon alcohols and acetates implicated (Z)-11-tetradecenl-1-ol (Z11–14∶OH) and its acetate (Z11–14∶Ac) as sex pheromone components.Z11–14∶Ac produced the strongest EAG response of all compounds tested. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of extract of female sex pheromone glands (SPG) confirmed the presence ofZ11–14∶OH (125 pg/female) andZ11–14∶Ac (600 pg/female) (all other monoenes had different retention times). In field tests, traps baited withZ11–14∶OH alone captured males, but traps baited withZ11–14∶Ac alone did not. Traps baited with a combination ofZ11–14∶OH andZ11–14∶Ac in various ratios did not produce better trap catches thanZ11–14∶OH alone. (Z)-9-Dodecen-1-ol acetate (Z9–12∶Ac), reported by others to be a field attractant, did not produce trap catch in our tests, but in combination withZ11–14∶ OH (98∶2 in septa corresponding to 95:5 in vapor,Z11–14∶OH toZ9–12∶AC) produced a sevenfold increase in catch overZ11–14∶OH alone. IfZ9–12∶AC had been present in extract of SPG at 2–5% ofZ11–14∶OH, it would not have been detected in our GC-MS experiment.
