    Notes: Summary Over three years, theAdh and α-Gpdh loci have been studied in two cellar populations ofDrosophila melanogaster and in two field populations which were each near to one of the cellars. Analyses of gene frequencies indicate that the divergence among subpopulations is greater in theAdh locus than in the α-Gpdh locus. Selection for or againstAdh S allele acting on theIn(2L)t inversion influences of the α-Gpdh alleles. This phenomenon may contribute to explain the maintenance of theAdh and α-Gpdh polymorphism and of theIn(2L)t inversion.

    Notes: Abstract Studies of short or medium range geographic variations play an increasing role in ecological genetics, and sensitive techniques are required to detect them. In this respect, two sampling techniques were compared inD. melanogaster. The biological data were provided by the analysis of four natural populations from the same geographic area, Spain (one) and Southern France (three), for four morphometrical traits: abdomen and thoracic pigmentation, and wing and thorax lengths. Traits were measured on wild living females and on their progeny reared in the laboratory at 25°C. For progeny analyses, two techniques were compared: the usual isofemale line technique, sib families issued from a single female, and a new isogroup technique, the progeny produced by a group of 20 wild-collected parents. Large phenotypic variations were observed in wild living flies, corresponding to the unstability of natural environmental conditions during their development. Among laboratory grown flies, variations were much smaller. Between isogroups, differences were small, due to sampling error and some common environment effects. Variations between lines were much greater, thus demonstrating a strong genetic component. When different populations have to be compared, the isogroup technique should be preferred since, for the same amount of work, the lesser variability between groups provides a more precise characterization of the population means.

    Notes: Abstract An l-amino-acid oxidase (EC 1.4.3.1) that catalyzes the oxidative deamination of twelve l-amino acids has been purified 21-fold and with 14% yield to electrophoretic homogeneity from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cells by ammonium-sulfate fractionation, gel filtration through Sephacryl and Superose, anion-exchange chromatography and preparative electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels. The native enzyme is a protein of 470 kDa and consists of eight identical or similarsized subunits of 60 kDa each. Optimum pH and temperature were 8.2 and 55° C, respectively, with a Q10 (45–55° C) of 1.7 and an activation energy of 45 kJ · mol−1. Its absorption spectrum showed, in the visible region, maxima at 360 and 444 nm, characteristic of a flavoprotein with a calculated flavin content of 7.7 mol FAD per mol of native enzyme. Apparent K m values of the twelve l-amino acids which can act as substrates of l-amino-acid oxidase ranged between 31 μM for phenylalanine and 176 μM for methionine. The effect of several specific group reagents, chelating agents and bivalent cations on enzyme activity has also been studied.

    Notes: Abstract Seven Hox cluster-related genes (Dthox-A to -G) have been isolated from the freshwater triclad Dugesia (G.) tigrina, their sequence compared to other Hox genes and their expression in intact and regenerating organisms analyzed by whole mount in situ hybridization. Sequence comparison analyses show high similarities of D. tigrina Hox genes to anterior and medial groups of coelomate Hox genes. Expression analyses show very early, synchronous, and overlapping expression of Dthox -A, -E, -G and -F in anterior, posterior and lateral regenerative tissues. At one hour of regeneration all Dthox genes studied showed a neat, clear expression at the wound boundary. Later, as the blastema grows, the expression area expands to more proximal regions covering the blastema and the distal postblastema regions. Blastemas formed by intercalary regeneration also show a synchronous expression of the same Hox genes though the onset of activation is much delayed. The finding that the same set of Hox genes is synchronously activated in anterior, posterior, intercalary and lateral regeneration is in sharp contrast to its well established role in specifying antero-posterior pattern during embryonic development. The implications of these results as regards ancestral versus co-opted roles of Hox genes in development and regeneration are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract To identify potential pattern control and cell determination and/or differentiation genes in the freshwater planarian Dugesial (G.) tigrina, we searched for homeobox genes of different types in the genome of this primitive metazoan. We applied two basic approaches: 1) Screening the cDNA library with degenerate oligonucleotides corresponding to the most conserved amino acid sequence from helix-3 of the homeodomain of each family; and 2) PCR amplification of genomic DNA or cDNA, using two sets of degenerated oligonucleotides corresponding to helices 1 and 3 of the homeodomain or two specific domains of the POU family. Using the first strategy we have identified and characterized two tissue-specific cell determination and/or differentiation NK-type homeobox genes. Using the second strategy we have identified several homeobox genes that belong to the HOM/Hox, paired (prd) or POU families.

    Notes: Abstract Rhizobium, Bradyrhizobium and Azorhizobium can elicit the formation of N2-fixing nodules on the roots or stems of their leguminous host plants. The nodule formation involves several developmental steps determined by different sets of genes from both partners, the gene expression being temporally and spatially coordinated. The plant proteins that are specifically synthesised during the formation and function of the nodule are called nodulins. The nodulins that are expressed before the onset of N2 fixation are termed early nodulins. These proteins are probably involved in the infection process as well as in nodule morphogenesis rather than in nodule function. The nodulins expressed just before or during N2 fixation are termed late nodulins and they participate in the function of the nodule by creating the physiological conditions required for nitrogen fixation, ammonium assimilation and transport. In this review we will describe nodulins, nodulin genes and the relationship between nodulin gene expression and nodule development. The study of nodulin gene expression may provide insight into root-nodule development and the mechanism of communication between bacteria and host plant.
