    Notes: Abstract Crude α-amylase preparations from seven Lepidoptera pests were susceptible to inhibition by salt-soluble proteins of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) endosperm. Protein fractions that corresponded to tetrameric, dimeric, and monomeric wheat α-amylase inhibitors, were decreasingly effective against the insect α-amylase activity. To further confirm these results, purified inhibitors were tested against an α-amylase preparation fromEphestia kuehniella (Zeller). This preparation showed decreased activity when increasing amounts of an heterotetrameric inhibitor (reconstituted from its isolated subunits WTAI-CM2, -CM3 and -CM16) were assayed. Activity was only partially inhibited by homodimeric (WDAI-1, synonym 0.53; WDAI-2, synonym 0.19) and monomeric (WMAI-1, synonym 0.28) inhibitors.

    Notes: Abstract This paper discusses the land types, hydrologic characteristics and processes, and the major modification of these, in relation to mechanisms and magnitude of phosphorus losses to drains and riverine systems which discharge to the Peel-Harvey estuary. About 75% of the coastal plain part of the catchment is cleared of native vegetation and used for dryland, dairy and beef grazing. There are small areas devoted to irrigated pasture and commercial horticulture. Seventy-five percent of the soils of the catchment are sandy surfaced with a poor capacity to retain phosphorus. Though the area is flat, catchment water yields are high because of a large winter rainfall excess and low soil storage capacity. Drainage schemes have been constructed in much of the catchment to remove excess water quickly. This was required initially to allow agricultural expansion and is now important for protecting a growing infrastructure which serves the most populous region of Western Australia.

    Notes: Abstract In a fertilizer and manure experiment, millet was grown under four treatments (no fertilizer or manure, farmyard manure, chemical fertilizer, and both). Grain yield and total aboveground biomass production of the unfertilized plot were relatively high. The observed differences in total dry matter production must be attributed to differences in nutrient availability, as amount of rainfall and its distribution were favourable. Results show only small differences in distribution of dry matter among the various plant organs between the best and the non-fertilized treatments. Nutrient supply from natural sources, defined as crop content of N, P, and K at maturity without fertilizer application, amounted to 104, 16 and 103 kg ha−1, respectively, which are very high values. Total uptake of calcium and magnesium is related to that of potassium, as the combined content of these three elements is linearly related to total aboveground biomass production. Minimum removal of nitrogen and phosphorus per ton grain dry matter amounts to 29 and 4kg, respectively, and 9 kg potassium per ton total aboveground dry matter. A possible double function of phosphorus as element of structural biomass and for maintenance of electro-neutrality is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract An excess of plant nutrients has caused serious eutrophication in aquatic ecosystems of southwestern Australia manifested by excessive growth and accumulation of green and bluegreen algae. Phosphorus is generally the limiting nutrient for algal growth and phosphatic fertilizers applied to nutrient-deficient, leaching, sandy soils are the main source of P, supplemented by rural industry point sources. Nitrogen is the limiting nutrient in marine embayments with little drainage from the land. Measures to reduce the load of P delivered to drainage include basing fertilizer application rates on soil testing for P and the use of less soluble P fertilizers. Catchment management plans are being implemented with community involvement to reduce P loads and maintain agricultural production. This introductory paper reviews the history of eutrophication in southwestern Australia and of studies into its causes, principally in the large Peel-Harvey estuary. It briefly summarises other papers in this special issue concerned with different aspects of the problem: how to fertilize the land without causing eutrophication.

    Notes: Abstract In order to manage phosphorus (P) losses from soils to waterbodies, knowledge of the mechanisms through which P is retained or released from the soil is essential. Sandy soils of the Peel-Harvey catchment (Western Australia) were subjected to a range of environmental and management factors in the laboratory and field in order to gain an understanding of the mechanisms that affect the magnitude of P losses. Sandy soils accumulated P, despite having little sorption capacity, and this accumulation could be monitored by measuring an acid-extractable fraction. The potential, short-term P loss could be estimated by determination of water-soluble soil solution P prior to winter rains. An annual cycle of the change in arbitrarily defined soil-P pools is discussed in relation to environmental and management factors. Laboratory experiments indicated that P rundown and potential annual P loss in the absence of P fertilizers could be estimated using bicarbonate extractable P. Phosphorus losses were decreased by the application of fertilizers with a low content of water-soluble P. The low ability of sandy soils of the Peel-Harvey coastal catchment to retain P, when compared to other Western Australian soils, is because of low contents of clay minerals and iron and aluminium hydrous oxides.

    Notes: Abstract Fullerene powder mixtures with different C60/C70 ratios have been analyzed by a variety of techniques, and results have been compared. The fullerence mixtures have been characterized as solutions in n-hexane by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and UV-VIS spectroscopy. Thin films of fullerenes on Au(111) have been prepared from the mixtures by sublimation. The sublimation process has been studied by simultaneous thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses. Thin fullerene films on Au(111) have been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The STM images show primarily two types of ballshaped molecules arranged in a lattice with hexagonal symmetry (fcc(111) face, nearest neighbour distance: 1 nm). The two species differ in diameter. STM images of films made of mixtures of different C60/C70 ratios show that C70 molecules display a larger apparent diameter (0.8 nm) and corrugation than C60 molecules (0.7 nm). The C60/C70 ratios obtained by counting the corresponding molecular species in the STM images of the thin films are compared to the C60/C70 ratios determined by HPLC on hexane solutions of the mixtures. The observed differences might be explained by different rates of sublimation for the two species. The STM images reveal film defects (vacancies and boundaries) and dynamic processes (displacement of C70 molecules and vacancies). In films prepared to have a C60 coverage of less than one monolayer, stable structural units of the C60(111) surface consisting of three or seven C60 molecules are revealed by STM. Occasionally, substructure within individual fullerene molecules is observed.

    Notes: Abstract Dissolved inorganic nutrient pools are small relative to particulate pools, and dissolved pools turnover rapidly. It has been observed that pools change little from day to day on the sampling scales usually employed. A simple model is presented where uptake and regeneration rates balance to cause a local steady state concentration for dissolved inorganic nutrients. Enrichment and dilution perturbation experiments with lake water support the idea of steady state nutrient concentrations. Although inorganic nutrient concentrations are often controlled by biota, the absolute concentrations present tell little about the activity of that biota.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Chez le rat, un traitement préalable par la thyroxine ou la calcitonine inhibe les calcifications métastatiques et l'ostéite fibreuse provoquées par un surdosage d'extrait parathyroïdien. Si les deux hormones sont données simultanément, il y a sommation de leurs effets. La calcergie produite par l'administration conjointe d'acétate de plomb par voie intraveineuse et de polymyxinepar voie sous-cutanée est inhibée par la calcitonine mais n'est pas influencée par la thyroxine. Seule la calcitonine diminue l'hypercalcémie produite par l'injection intraveineuse d'acétate de plomb. Le mécanisme d'action des deux hormones est brièvement discuté.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Versuche an Ratten ergaben, daß die durch Überdosierung mit Nebenschilddrüsenextrakt herbeigeführte Osteitis fibrosa und Verkalkung der Weichteilgewebe durch Vorbehandlung mit Thyroxin oder Calcitonin verhindert wird. Gleichzeitige Verabreichung beider Hormone ergibt eine Additionswirkung. Die durch intravenöse Injektion von Bleiacetat und nachfolgende subcutane Verabreichung von Polymyxin ausgelöste Hautverkalkung (Calcergie) läßt sich mit Calcitonin, jedoch nicht mit Thyroxin, verhüten. Außerdem wird die durch eine einzige Injektion von Bleiacetat hervorgerufene Hyperkalzämie durch Calcitonin vermindert, während Thyroxin keinen derartigen Einfluß ausübt. Der Wirkungsmechanismus beider Hormone wird kurz besprochen.
    Notes: Abstract Experiments on rats indicate that pretreatment with thyroxine or calcitonin inhibits the soft-tissue calcification and the osteitis fibrosa induced by parathyroid extract overdosage. When the hormones are administered concurrently there is a summation of their actions. Calcitonin but not thyroxine inhibitits the skin calcification (calcergy) induced by an intravenous injection of lead acetate followed by topical administration of polymyxin. Moreover, calcitonin diminishes the hypercalcemia produced by a single injection of lead acetate, whereas thyroxine is ineffective in this respect. The mechanism of action of both hormones is briefly discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les facteurs, influençant la vitesse et l'intensité du phénomène d'association des ions calcium et phosphates avec des fibres contenant du collagène, et préparés à partir du tendon de boeuf par deux méthodes d'extraction différentes, ont été étudiés. Les fibres, obtenues par ces deux méthodes, nécessitent spécifiquement du phosphate pour absorber du calcium et vice versa. L'absorption ionique des deux préparations est inhibée par du Mg++, du pyrophosphate et un peptide acidique, isolé du sérum humain. Alors que les fibres contenant du collagène, préparées selon les deux méthodes, présentent une absorption ionique à des vitesses sensiblement identiques, seule une des méthodes donne une matrice réagissant positivement à la technique de coloration au nitrate d'argent de von Kossa. Etant donné que les deux critères de calcification sont intéressés de façon identique par des conditions de réaction et par des inhibiteurs, il apparait que les deux facteurs sont des manifestations de différents stades de calcification et que des études d'absorption ionique fournissent une base quantitative d'appréciation de la calcification, pouvant être d'importance pour l'étude du mécanisme et de contrôle de la minéralisation tissulaire.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Überprüft wurden die Faktoren, welche Geschwindigkeit und Ausmaß der Erscheinung beeinflussen, wobei Calcium- und Phosphationen sich mit den kollagenhaltigen, durch zwei verschiedene Extraktionsmethoden aus Rindersehnen gewonnenen Fasern eng zusammenbinden. Die mit beiden Methoden zubereiteten Fasern benötigen spezifisch Phosphat für die Calciumaufnahme und Calcium für die Phosphataufnahme. Die Ionenaufnahme beider Arten wird durch Mg++, Pyrophosphat und saure, aus dem menschlichen Serum isolierte Peptide gehemmt. Während die nach beiden Methoden präparierten kollagenhaltigen Fasern eine Ionenaufnahme von beinahe gleicher Geschwindigkeit verursachen, ergibt nur eine dieser Methoden eine Matrix, die mit der Silbernitratfärbung nach vonKossa positiv reagiert. Da beide Calcifikationskriterien gleicherweise durch Reaktionsbedingungen und Inhibitoren beeinflußt werden, wird daraus geschlossen, daß beide Erscheinungen verschiedener Stadien des Gesamtcalcifikationsprozesses sind. Untersuchungen über die Ionenaufnahme ergeben eine quantitative Angabe der Verkalkung, welche für die Erforschung des Mechanismus und der Kontrolle der Mineralisation der Gewebe wichtig sein könnte.
    Notes: Abstract Factors that influence the rate and extent of the phenomenon in which calcium and phosphate ions become firmly associated with collagen-containing fibers prepared from beef tendon by two different extraction methods have been investigated. The fibers produced by both methods specifically require phosphate for calcium uptake and calcium is required for phosphate uptake. Ion uptake by both types is inhibited by Mg++, pyrophosphate, and an acidic peptide isolated from human serum. Whereas the collagen-containing fibers prepared by both methods induce ion uptake at nearly identical rates, only one of the methods produced a matrix that gives a positive response to the silver nitrate staining technique of von Kossa. Since both criteria of calcification are similarly influenced by reaction conditions and inhibitors, it is concluded that both are manifestations of different stages of the overall calcification process and that studies of ion uptake provide a quantitative assessment of calcification which could be of importance for investigating the mechanism and control of tissue mineralization.

    Notes: Abstract Spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) zygotic embryos were successfully cryopreserved, without the addition of exogenous cryoprotectants, using only an abscisic acid (ABA) pretreatment. Optimum survival was obtained when embryos were cultured in vitro for 10 days on semisolid Murashige and Skoog (MS) nutrient medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L (±) ABA prior to cryopreservation. The embryos resumed growth within three days when returned to MS medium devoid of ABA but containing 2mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. The embryogenic calli produced from these embryos exhibited normal plant regeneration on auxin-free media. Changes in dw/fw ratio, as well as the esterified fatty acid and sucrose concentrations correlated positively with the development of tolerance to cryopreservation.
