    Description: We report the discovery and characterisation of a super-Earth and a sub-Neptune transiting the bright (K = 8.8), quiet, and nearby (37 pc) M3V dwarf TOI-1266. We validate the planetary nature of TOI-1266 b and c using four sectors of TESS photometry and data from the newly-commissioned 1-m SAINT-EX telescope located in San Pedro Mártir (México). We also include additional ground-based follow-up photometry as well as high-resolution spectroscopy and high-angular imaging observations. The inner, larger planet has a radius of R = 2.37−0.12+0.16 R⊕ and an orbital period of 10.9 days. The outer, smaller planet has a radius of R = 1.56−0.13+0.15 R⊕ on an 18.8-day orbit. The data are found to be consistent with circular, co-planar and stable orbits that are weakly influenced by the 2:1 mean motion resonance. Our TTV analysis of the combined dataset enables model-independent constraints on the masses and eccentricities of the planets. We find planetary masses of Mp = 13.5−9.0+11.0 M⊕ (

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume On a étudié quelques facteurs liés à la consommation du nectar chez les fourmis dans un échantillon de 75 espèces de plantes du sud de l'Espagne qui sont pollinisées par des insectes et qui produisent du nectar. Les fourmis exploitent le nectar de façon opportuniste. La variation entre les espèces de plantes en ce qui concerne le taux de sécrétion de nectar et la localisation des fleurs par rapport au sol n'a pas d'incidence, pas plus que la possibilité de visite par les fourmis ni l'identité des espèces enregistrées. Les restrictions mécaniques à l'accessibilité du nectar (corolles tubulaires, structures fermées) diminuent la consommation de nectar par les fourmis. Quelques tendances évolutives dans la morphologie florale, habituellement liées à une augmentation de la spécificité des pollinisateurs, peuvent être interprétées simultanément en termes de meilleure adaptation des plantes pour exclure des insectes non pollinisateurs qui profitent du nectar.
    Notes: Summary Correlates of ant nectarivory have been investigated in a sample of 75 insect-pollinated, nectar-producing southern Spanish plant species. Ants exploit floral nectar opportunistically. Variation among plant species in sugar secretion rates and flower location relative to ground level do not influence either the chances of ant visitation or the identity of ant species involved. Mechanical restrictions on nectar accessibility (tubular corollas, occlusive structures) decrease nectar thievery, Some evolutionary trends in floral morphology usually related to a decrease in the range of effective pollinators alone may simultaneously be interpreted in terms of increased plant adaptedness to exclude non-pollinating insect nectarivores.

    Notes: Abstract This paper reports the changes over time in the microfungal communities that inhabit three rodent species' food stores at two climatically different locations. Results reveal that microfungal diversity values calculated from above-ground food stores are highest in the more commonly disturbed portions of the rodent dens. Interactions among food-inhabiting microbes and between the rodents and food-inhabiting microbes also appear to influence the microfungal communities within the rodent dens. For example, our data suggest that transport by animal vectors, and not by air currents, is more effective at dispersing microbial propagules. Furthermore, although fungal communities inhabiting food stores within dens varied in composition and diversity over time, standardized substrates (sorghum seeds) simultaneously placed within the food stores converged in microfungal composition the longer they were left within the dens. We hypothesize that animal vectors, including rodents, make neighboring fungal communities more alike by introducing similar communities of microbes, which in turn initiate a cascade of biological interactions that, over time, result in similar microfungal communities inhabiting newly stored food items.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Diamino butanone (DAB), a competitive inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) a key enzyme in polyamine biosynthesis, inhibited the yeast to hyphae transition in Mucor rouxii, induced by transfer from anaerobiosis to aerobiosis, but not the opposite phenomenon. Addition of DAB to anaerobic yeast cells brought about a decrease in ODC and polyamine levels. In these conditions, the aerobic shift produced only a weak increase in ODC activity and no change in polyamine levels. DAB also blocked phorogenesis in M. rouxii and in Phycomyces blakesleeanus. At the effective concentrations DAB did not affect cell growth of either fungus. It is suggested that low, constant levels of ODC and polyamines are necessary for cell growth, and that high transient levels are required during the differentiative steps. DAB, at the concentrations used, affects this last process, but does not interfere with the maintenance level of polyamines.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Cells of the “slime” strain of Neurospora crassa synthesize a coherent extracellular material which remains attached to the cell surface, but is released into the liquid medium by shaking. The material was purified and studied by different criteria. By electron microscopy it appears as long wavy sheets which strongly bind concanavalin A, but not wheat germ agglutinin, and maintain their integrity in the absence of structural polysaccharides. Analysis of the purified material revealed that it was free of contaminating membranes; it contained more than 70% protein, 1% neutral sugars (glucose, mannose, fucose and galactose), less than 2% lipids and ca. 4% not-characterized hexosaminelike compounds. Its polypeptide pattern as determined by PAGE was complex. The significance of this material is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The proteinaceous extracellular material (PEM) synthesized by the cells of the ‘slime” strain of Neurospora crassa (see Martinez et al. 1989) was solubilized by treatment with urea or guanidine. Removal of these chemicals by dialysis, caused reassembly of the solubilized proteins into material with the same microscopic appearance as the original PEM. Polypeptide patterns from both native and reassembled structures were identical. Dialysis-mediated reassembly of the solubilized proteins appeared to be dependent on both concentration of the soluble macromolecules and time. Gel chromatography of PEM solubilized with different agents revealed two discrete populations of complexes with molecular masses of 1,500 and 500 kDa respectively. These were able to reassemble into lamellar structures with a variable degree of efficiency.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Levels of basal chitin synthetase in cell-free extracts from Phycomyces blakesleeanus were reduced by breakage of cells in the presence of EDTA or EGTA. Addition of Ca2+ to these extracts activated chitin synthetase. Maximal activation was obtained after 2 h at a Ca2+ concentration of 2–5 mM. Activation by calcium was not reduced by any protease inhibitor tested but benzamidine, whereas the weak proteolytic activity of the extracts was inhibited by antipain. Larger levels of chitin synthetase activation were obtained by the simultaneous addition of calcium and calmodulin in most, but not all extracts. This further activation by calmodulin was prevented by TFP. ATP or cAMP did not stimulate activation by calcium or calcium-calmodulin.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Yeast β(1–3) glucan synthetase is stimulated and stabilized by EDTA. Sucrose protects the enzyme from selfinactivaton. Preincubation of cell free extracts at low sucrose concentrations indicates a slow transition of the enzyme towards dissociation. Transition kinetics at 30° C and 0° C in the presence and in the absence of sucrose are interpreted assuming that a subunit is thermolabile in the free state and that sucrose increases its stability. Magnesium is deletereous for glucan synthetase in cell-free extracts. Chaotropic agents inactivate glucan synthetase according to their capacity to solubilize and depolymerize biological compounds. Fluoride plays a special role in the activation of glucan synthetase. Its action appears to be dependent on the presence of GTP (or other nucleotides). The role of all these agents on the activity and stability of the enzyme is interpreted in a unified scheme.

    Notes: Abstract Cells from the “slime” variant of Neurospora crassa were broken in isotonic conditions by use of triethanolamine buffer plus EDTA. After removal of large membranous structures by low-speed centrifugation, chitosomes and secretory vesicles were separated by means of gel filtration, precipitation of membranous contaminants with Concanavalin A, and centrifugation in sucrose or glycerol gradients. Polypeptidic composition of fractions enriched in secretory vesicles or chitosomes was found to be distinct. By these criteria we concluded that chitosomes and secretory vesicles represent different populations of microvesicles. Both microvesicular populations appeared free of endoplasmic reticulum and vacuolar contaminants as demonstrated by determination of appropriate enzymatic markers.
