    Notes: Summary Although the mitochondrial genomes of the Chinese Spring and Aquila varieties of wheat are normaly similar in organization, this is not so in tissue cultures initiated from their immature embryos where the mitochondrial genomes of both are rearranged and in different, characteristic, ways. However, the mitochondrial genomes of tissue cultures of reciprocal F1 crosses between these varieties were almost identical to one another, showing that nuclear genes control the rearrangement processes. These rearrangements are either due to the appearance of new structures or else result from changes in the relative amounts of subgenomic components. The severe reduction in the amount of certain molecular configurations in tissue cultures from reciprocal crosses is probably due to the presence of dominant information in the Aquila nuclear genome. Data obtained from tissue cultures initiated from F2 embryos of the cross Aquila x Chinese Spring suggest that at least two complementary genes are involved in this control. In contrast, the presence of new molecular arrangements appears to be under the control of a dominant allelic form of a Chinese Spring gene or genes. Thus, this study demonstrates that at least two sets of nuclear genes control the reorganization of the mitochondrial genome which occurs when tissue cultures are initiated from the immature embryos of wheat.

    Mitochondrial DNA variability detected in a single wheat regenerant involves a rare recombination event across a short repeat (1994)

    Notes: Abstract The mitochondrial genome of the selfed progeny of a plant regenerated from long-term somatic tissue culture displays specific structural rearrangements characterized by the appearance of novel restriction fragments. A mitochondrial DNA library was constructed from this selfed progeny in the SalI site of cosmid pHC79 and the novel fragments were subsequently studied. They were shown to arise from reciprocal recombination events involving DNA sequences present in the parental plant. The regions of recombination were sequenced and the nucleotide sequences were aligned with those of the presumptive parental fragments. We characterized an imperfect short repeated DNA sequence, 242 bp long, within which a 7-bb DNA repeat could act as a region of recombination. The use of PCR technology allowed us to show that these fragments were present in both parental plants and tissue cultures as low-abundance sequence arrangements.

    Characterization of two minicircular plasmid-like DNAs isolated from date-palm mitochondria (1994)
    Springer

    Notes: Abstract We report here the identification and characterization of two minicircular plasmid-like DNAs isolated from mitochondria of a moroccan date-palm variety. Both molecules were cloned and used as probes in Southern analyses of mitochondrial and total-cellular DNA. Evidence was obtained that these plasmid-like DNAs crosshybridized but did not show any homology to nuclear, chloroplastic, or main mitochondrial genomes. Sequence analysis revealed that both minicircles, 1 346- and 1 160-bp long, share several stretches of homology, the most important consisting of three identical clusters of lengths 42, 47 and 38 bp. In contrast, no major homology was observed with the other higher-plant plasmid-like DNAs reported so far. Sequence analysis also revealed the presence, in the same strand of one of the minicircles, of two open reading frames potentially encoding proteins 89 and 86 amino acids in length. Interestingly, Northern analyses, using single strands of each minicircle as probes, showed the presence of two transcripts hybridizing only with the strand bearing these two open reading frames. However, computer-assisted comparison of the predicted polypeptide sequences with a protein-sequence library failed to detect any significant homology to known sequences.

    Notes: A thermogravimetric analyzer is used to study the synthesis of TiN from Ti powder over a wide range of temperature, conversion and heating rate, and for two Ti precursor powders with different morphologies. Conversions to TiN up to 99% are obtained with negligible oxygen contamination. Nonisothermal initial rate and isothermal data are used in a nonlinear least-squares minimization to determine the most appropriate rate law. The logarithmic rate law offers an excellent agreement between the experimental and calculated conversions to TiN and can predict afterburning, which is an important experimentally observed phenomenon. Due to the form of the logarithmic rate law, the observed activation energy is a function of effective particle size, extent of conversion, and temperature even when the intrinsic activation energy remains constant. This aspect explains discrepancies among activation energies obtained in previous studies. The frequently used sedimentation particle size is a poor measure of the powder reactivity. The BET surface area indicates the powder reactivity much better.

    Noncatalytic gas-solid reactions and mechanical stress generation (1995)

    Notes: The reaction rate in gas-solid systems can be affected by mechanical stresses that arise as the reaction proceeds. Stresses develop due to differences between precursor and product molar volumes and thermal expansion coefficients. Experimental evidence on the interaction of reaction rate and mechanical stress for the Ti/N2 and Ti/O2 systems is provided. A detailed and consistent mathematical model is developed for the reaction taking place at the constrained precursor/product interface. An elastic formulation for the stresses is adopted, and stress generation due to mismatches in linear thermal expansion coefficients and equivalent volume (Pilling-Bedworth ratio) for the precursor and product are considered. The effect of surface energy, which becomes significant for particle sizes below 1 μm, is also included in the model. Both experimentally and theoretically, conditions exist where the mechanical stresses exceed the strength of the material, leading to mechanical breakdown of the product layer, thus causing a discontinuity in the observed reaction rate. The entire processing history, including the reaction, temperature, and pressure profiles, plays an important role in determining the overall reaction kinetics of the powder.

    Reaction rate modeling in noncatalytic gas-solid systems: Species transport and mechanical stress (1995)
    Hoboken, NJ : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: A detailed model to describe the overall reaction rate of the oxidation of titanium is developed. The mathematical model consists of two facets, the first of which involves a detailed description of species transport that accounts for the formation of charged species. This is augmented by a description of the occurrence of mechanical stress due to a Pilling - Bedworth ratio that differs significantly from I as well as differences between precursor and product thermal expansion coefficients. A self imposed electric field is formed across the oxide layer due to different mobilities of the species considered. This field opposes the transport of electrons and enhances the transport of anion vacancies, thus increasing the overall reaction rate compared to a pure diffusion process, while also ensuring that electrical charge is conserved. Large growth stresses result from the unmatched precursor and product volumes, significantly affecting the overall process. These results show that the incorporation of a consistent treatment of mechanical stress forms a necessay part of any accurate description of the overall behavior of a reacting particle.
