    Notes: Abstract. Stomatal conductance and needle water potential of P. radiata clones were measured after 2, 5 and 8 months on plants grown in controlled environment rooms with markedly different water vapour saturation deficits (D). Conductance was significantly lower at high D, but water potential differences between treatments were not significant. When trees were moved between treatments most of the changes in conductances occurred within 2 h, with residual changes after 24 h. Water potentials were not different 24 h after the trees were moved. The effects were completely reversible.Transpiration rates of individual trees were highest in the high D treatment and lowest in the low D treatment. They were not linearly related to D because of decreasing conductance with increasing D.Height growth, diameter growth and foliage areas were not significantly different between treatments. Tracheid lumen diameters tended to be larger in trees grown at higher D although treatment differences were not significant.There were significant clonal differences in shoot conductance and tracheid dimensions.

    Half-sib family selection for forage yield in orchardgrass (2002)

    Notes: Genetic variation for forage yield of orchardgrass is abundant, but there are few reports of progress from selection for increased forage yield. The objective of this study was to estimate direct effects of selection from one cycle of half-sib family selection for forage yield in orchardgrass. Eleven selected populations were compared with their parent populations within three maturity groups. Populations were evaluated under hay management at three locations and management-intensive rotational grazing at two locations. Nine of the 11 selected populations differed, by an average of 7.4%, from their parent population in forage yield. Nine of the selected populations also showed changes in Drechslera leafspot reaction, all indicating a negative genetic correlation with forage yield. Selection for high forage yield tended to result in greater ground cover and later relative maturity. However, changes in net herbage accumulation (NHA) under rotational grazing were generally not significant and were uncorrelated with changes in forage yield, indicating that forage yield of hay plots is not correlated with the NHA of grazed plots. Although genetic gains in forage yield measured under hay management were very favourable relative to other reports from the literature, the lack of correlated progress under grazing management indicates that directed selection for NHA of orchardgrass should be conducted under grazing management.

    Notes: Hull thickness is an important component of seed quality, which effects dehulling ability, feed or food nutritional aspects and cooking times. A breeding objective in Lupinus angustifolius crop improvement is to reduce hull thickness and a rapid screening method is needed to efficiently screen genotypes. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging using infrared illumination at 980 nm was used to compare hull thickness of genotypes of four lupin species. OCT-derived hull layer thickness correlated highly with actual hull thickness determined by environmental scanning electron microscopy (r = 0.90) and allowed reliable distinction between mutant (thin-hulled) and parent genotypes of L. angustifolius. The imaging could clearly penetrate lupin seed to a depth of approximately 200 μm. The use of OCT to measure hull thickness has the advantage that it is rapid and non-destructive and should be very useful in selecting thin hull lines of lupins and other species on a single seed basis in germplasm or progeny from crosses.

    Notes: Annual electro fishing surveys were carried out over an 11-year period at five sites on an upland river, which was subject to dredging operations in connection with a land drainage scheme. Four of the sites were dredged 3 years after the start of the survey and one control site remained undredged throughout. The results indicated that dredging operations initially reduced Salmonid densities and that there was subsequently a progressive downstream recovery, with fry densities taking up to 6 years to improve at the most downstream site. Yearling and older fish recovered to pre-drainage scheme levels more rapidly than fry.Changes in population structure were also observed at three of the dredged sites. Two sites were considerably deepened and finally contained larger numbers of older fish than prior to the drainage scheme. The opposite effect was found to have taken place at a site, which became shallower as a result of drainage works, and contained larger numbers of fry at the end of the survey.Increased fish growth rates were also observed at all sites over the experimental period, and this may have been correlated with enrichment of the river system by leaching from increased fertilizer usage within the catchments.

    Proteins and Polysaccharides In the Nutrition of Paramecium Multimicronucleatun (1980)

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Paramecium multimicronucleatum has been cultured for 20 years on a medium of salts, vitamins, amino acids, fatty acids, ribosides, and stigmasterol plus a little nondialyzable fraction (NDF) of baker's yeast. Fractionations of NDF identified 2 essentials: (a) in a fraction 〈 100,000 daltons which contained much protein and replaceable by ovalbumin and (b) in a fraction of 〈 300,000 daltons; this fraction contained much polysaccharide, replaceable by glycogen, which is 〉 300,000 daltons. For 2 years now P. multimicronucleatum has grown well with ovalbumin and glycogen replacing NDF. Besides ovalbumin, concanavalin A satisfies the protein requirement; this lectin attaches to sugar residues in glycogen. Studies with a fluorescent dye, PGA-1A, a stilbene derivative, provides further evidence for the polysaccharide requirement. This dye attaches to polysaccharides; when added to glycogen, and this in turn is added to a culture containing ovalbumin, fluorescent blue vacuoles appear within 2–3 h. When dye + glycogen were added to a culture without ovalbumin, no fluorescent vacuoles were found. A protein appears involved in formation of food vacuoles; this fits the pattern for endocytosis described in recent reviews. Besides glycogen, mannan gave good growth. Dextrin and amylopectin gave only fair growth through 7 serial transfers; glucose, maltose and amylose did not sustain growth. Strain 51 of P. tetratrelia, which grows well in NDF medium, grows well when NDF is replaced with ovalbumin and glycogen.

    A comparison between Shields' threshold criterion and the movement of loosely packed gravel in a tidal channel (1984)

    Topics: Geosciences
    Notes: Observations of the threshold of movement of loosely packed gravel in a tidal current are described. For gravel with equivalent ‘spherical’ diameters D in the range 0.2 ≲D≲ 5.0cm the critical friction velocity u*c, corresponding to the initiation of sediment transport, is given by u*c=7.0 D0.2. At large values of D within the quoted range, the value u*c is significantly lower than would be obtained by a Shields experiment (u*c∞D0.5). By comparing our values of u*c with those obtained under well-controlled laboratory conditions, the discrepancy with Shields is shown to be due to the open spacing between, and exposure of, individual pebbles on the seabed. By comparing our results with those from upland gravel streams and flume experiments, it is suggested that Shields assumed an excessively large water depth to particle size ratio as a constraint within which the critical sediment entrainment number 0c is valid.

    Notes: Soybeans, Glycine max (L.) Merr., from ureides for transport of nitrogen from the root nodule to the shoot. The most direct routes for ureide utilization include the degradation of ureide-derived urea to NH3 and CO2. Ureolytic activity was found in leaf disks of soybean and exhbited optimal activity at pH 7 in the presence of a high concentration of urea (250 mM). In vitro studies showed neither urea amidolyase nor urea dehydrogenase activity in soybean leaves and the ureolytic activity was characterized as urease. Several biochemical properties of soybean leaf urease were determined and compared to seed urease properties. Soybean leaf urease differed from that of seed in five ways: pH optima (5.25 and 8.75), apparent Km (0.8 mM), no inhibition by hydroxyurea, faster electrophoretic mobility and no cross-reactivity with soybean seed urease antibodies. The data suggest that urease is the primary urea metabolizing enzyme present in soybean leaves. The properties of soybean leaf urease support the conclusion that a unique isozyme of urease is present in leaf tissue.

    Notes: Vacuum packaged beef strip loins (n = 72) were stored (2 ° 1°C) for either 0, 12 or 24 days before fabrication; steaks were packaged and displayed (2°C or 7°C) up to 6 days in oxygen-permeable film or up to 30 days in vacuum packages (medium or high oxygen-barrier film). Steaks displayed at 2°C, rather than 7°C, tended to have higher overall appearance scores especially when steaks were from 12 or 24 day subprimals. Overall palatability of vacuum packaged steaks was unacceptable after 10–15 days of display. Vacuum packaged steaks can be displayed for 10 days if: (1) steaks are from relatively fresh subprimals, (2) steaks are vacuum packaged with high oxygen-barrier film, and (3) steaks are displayed at 2°C. Although visual scores for vacuum packaged steaks were acceptable for 20–30 days, off-odors and off-flavors were limiting factors in determining shelf-life.
