    Notes: The effects of mycorrhizal infection, soil P availability and fruit production on the male function of reproduction were examined in two cultivars of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.). Tomato plants were grown in a greenhouse under three treatment combinations: non-mycorrhizal, low P (NMPO); non-mycorrhizal, high P (NMP3); and mycorrhizal, low P (MPO). In addition, all treatment combinations were grown both with and without fruit. Fruit production decreased final leaf biomass, flower production and in vitro pollen tube growth rates, often reducing the beneficial effects of increased P uptake. Thus, fruit production diverted resources from subsequent vegetative growth, flower production and pollen development. As the growing season progressed, mean pollen production per flower and in vitro germination and tube growth decreased. Mycorrhizal infection and high soil P conditions increased final leaf biomass, flower production, mean pollen production per flower (in one cultivar) and in vitro pollen tube growth rates. Thus, mycorrhizal infection and high soil P conditions increased pollen quantity and quality, thereby enhancing fitness through the male function. Similar trends in these treatments suggested that mycorrhizal effects on the male function were largely the result of improved P acquisition.

    Notes: Spo0A~P is the essential response regulator and transcription factor for sporulation initiation in Bacillus subtilis. The phosphorylation level of Spo0A in the cell is determined by the sensor kinase activity of the phosphorelay, donating phosphoryl groups, and the antagonistic effects of dephosphorylation mediated by the Rap and Spo0E families of phosphatases. In this study, spo0A mutations were generated that encoded proteins less sensitive to the activity of Spo0E than the wild-type protein. The Spo0A substitutions N12K, P60S, L62P and F88L are surface exposed and localize to the same face of the molecule as the active site and in its close proximity on the β1–α1, β3–α3 and β4–α4 loops. The corresponding surface in the Spo0F response regulator was shown previously to be involved in the interaction with the RapB phosphatase, as well as the KinA histidine kinase and the Spo0B phosphotransferase. Thus, residues occupying the same position (N12:Q12, F88:Y84) and the same loops in Spo0A or Spo0F are involved in the interaction with the structurally unrelated Spo0E and RapB phosphatases, respectively, in addition to kinases and phosphotransferase. The specificity in phosphatase target recognition must be the result of side-chain variability within the response regulators and the interactions they promote. The residues involved in Spo0E interaction are identical in all Spo0A orthologues from spore-forming Bacilli encoding Spo0E phosphatases.

    Notes: The spatial structure of several exploited species within and among known populations of the Northwest Atlantic is reviewed using past and current knowledge. For each species, the coherence of existing management units with the spatial scale of population dynamics (populations, sub-populations, and spawning components) is summarized. The implications of this match or mismatch of spatial scales in the maintenance of biodiversity within and among populations are also discussed.

    The Fap1 fimbrial adhesin is a glycoprotein: antibodies specific for the glycan moiety block the adhesion of Streptococcus parasanguis in an in vitro tooth model (2002)

    Notes: Streptococcus parasanguis is a primary colonizer of the tooth surface and plays a pivotal role in the formation of dental plaque. The fimbriae of S. parasanguis are important in mediating adhesion to saliva-coated hydroxylapatite (SHA), an in vitro tooth adhesion model. The Fap1 adhesin has been identified as the major fimbrial subunit, and recent studies suggest that Fap1 is a glycoprotein. Monosaccharide analysis of Fap1 purified from the culture supernatant of S. parasanguis indicated the presence of rhamnose, glucose, galactose, N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylgalactosamine. A glycopeptide moiety was isolated from a pronase digest of Fap1 and purified by immunoaffinity chromatography. The monosaccharide composition of the purified glycopeptide was similar to that of the intact molecule. The functionality of the glycan moiety was determined using monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) specific for the intact Fap1 glycoprotein. These antibodies were grouped into two categories based on their ability to block adhesion of S. parasanguis to SHA and their corresponding specificity for either protein or glycan epitopes of the Fap1 protein. ‘Non-blocking’ MAb epitopes were mapped to unique protein sequences in the N-terminus of the Fap1 protein using non-glycosylated recombinant Fap1 proteins (rFap1 and drFap1) expressed in Escherichia coli. In contrast, the ‘blocking’ antibodies did not bind to the recombinant Fap1 proteins, and were effectively competed by the binding to the purified glycopeptide. These data suggest that the ‘blocking’ antibodies are specific for the glycan moiety and that the adhesion of S. parasanguis is mediated by sugar residues associated with Fap1.

    Notes: Analysis of nine tetranucleotide microsatellite loci for Atlantic herring at five locations in the Northwest Atlantic including the Bras d'Or Lakes shows considerable genetic variation and significant population structure within the Coastal Nova Scotia management component, and among coastal populations and herring collected from Georges Bank. However, results are also consistent with gene flow across the Gulf of Maine. The magnitude of differentiation between the Bras d'Or Lakes sample and all others considered was sufficient to warrant further investigation. These data support the precautionary spawning-ground based management approach implemented in this area.

    Analysis of stable isotope ratios to investigate stock structure of red emperor and Rankin cod in northern Western Australia (2001)

    Notes: The ratios of stable isotopes 18O/16O and 13C/12C, in sagittal otolith carbonate from two tropical demersal teleosts, red emperor Lutjanus sebae and Rankin cod Epinephelis multinotatus, from several locations in northern Western Australia, differed between sites. On a broad scale, fish from the four locations, Shark Bay, Ningaloo, Pilbara, and Broome had stable isotope values that were sufficiently different to indicate separate stocks, and it is appropriate to manage these populations of the two species independently in these areas. On a smaller scale, there may be limited mixing of these species between the Pilbara trawl fishery and the trap and line fisheries operating out of Onslow and Broome. Values of stable oxygen isotopes were strongly related to sea surface temperature, although there were some sites in shallow water where low values of stable oxygen isotopes indicated that fish were living in warm water. The use of stable oxygen and carbon isotope values is a valuable, cost effective method of determining the degree of mixing of fish stocks.

    MicroReview: Evolution of signalling in the sporulation phosphorelay (2002)

    Notes: Two-component and phosphorelay signal transduction systems are believed to function as environ-mental sensors that programme gene expression to the composition of the ecological niche in which a microbe normally resides. The question of how evolutionarily related bacteria that occupy different environments change their signal transduction pathways to adapt to such environments was asked of the sporulation phosphorelay of Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus halodurans, Bacillus anthracis and Bacillus stearothermophilus. Comparison of the primary amino acid sequence of phosphorelay proteins with the known structural and interactive properties of the B. subtilis proteins revealed that the amino acid residues of interaction surfaces between phosphorelay proteins and between a phosphorelay protein and DNA resist evolutionary change. The absolute conservation of interaction surfaces allowed the identification of sporulation sensor kinases in B. halodurans, B. anthracis and B. stearothermophilus. In these sensor kinases, the signal-sensing domains are vastly different in size and subdomain composition, with little apparent conservation between species, whereas the catalytic domains of these sensor kinases retain the high level of homology observed for the other phosphorelay proteins. Adaptation to new environments appears to result in rapid evolution of signalling domains to maximize environmental impact while maintaining identical protein–protein and protein–DNA contacts in the entire phosphorelay. In Clostridial genomes, only the Spo0A protein was found, suggesting that the anaerobic relatives of the Bacilli do not use a phosphorelay and phosphorylate Spo0A directly with sensor kinases.

    Notes: X-ray magnetic circular dichroism studies of magnetic 3d transition-metal samples require the recording of high-quality absorption scans in high magnetic fields using circularly polarized soft X-rays of energies in the range 0.5–1 keV. Normally this is performed by electron yield measurements in vacuum. This technique is rendered problematic by the influence of the high magnetic field on the motion of the electrons emitted. Detection of the fluorescent X-rays avoids this problem and eases the constraints of sample preparation and environment. However, the specifications required for a successful X-ray detector are severe, requiring an insensitivity to magnetic fields up to 4 T (for hysteresis curve measurements), a large dynamic range, detection of soft X-rays with good efficiency and signal to noise and containment of the detector structure within a space of a few cm3. Such a detector has been developed using gas microstrip technology and tests show that these requirements can be met.
