    Notes: Summary The pathway of adult sensory nerves has been analysed in three experimental situations: (i) in flies with grossly abnormal thoracic morphology resulting from X-irradiation early during development, (ii) in flies which had been subjected to surgical operations late in the larval period, (iii) in homoeotic mutants. The results provide experimental support for a simple mechanism in which developing adult axons join the nearest larval nerve and are guided by it up to the central nervous system. In particular, experimental interference with normal development can result in nerves from different segments, or from dorsal and ventral appendages, joining each other and entering the central nervous system together.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des résultats antérieurs ayant montré une certaine dépendance du lobe optique envers l'oeil composé au cours du développement post-embryonnaire, il importait de préciser le rôle joué par les fibres post-rétiniennes qui relient ces deux organes. On pouvait, en particulier, se demander si l'activité mitotique du massif d'accroissement commun aux deux ganglions optiques externes (la lamina et la medulla) est contrôlée par le nombre de fibres postrétiniennes néoformées, ou bien si le rôle régulateur des fibres post-rétiniennes s'exerce plus tard, au moment de la différenciation des cellules ganglionnaires. Afin de répondre à ces questions trois types d'opération impliquant l'activité des fibres post-rétiniennes ont été pratiquées: (1) Une déficience en fibres post-rétiniennes néoformées a été obtenue par ablation de la zone d'accroissement oculaire et son remplacement par du tégument banal. (2) Une surcharge en jeunes fibres post-rétiniennes a été réalisée par l'induction de zones d'accroissement oculaires supplémentaires à la suite de rotations antéro-postérieures de volets oculaires. (3) Des “témoins-opérés” ont subi l'ablation, puis la remise en place immédiate de volets oculaires identiques à ceux des séries précédentes. Les résultats obtenus ont permis de préciser les processus régulateurs qui contrôlent la croissance du lobe optique en la rendant dépendante de la croissance de l'oeil sus-jacent. Cette régulation, qui consiste en un ajustement exact du nombre des cellules ganglionnaires fonctionnelles à celui des fibres postrétiniennes, s'exercerait à trois niveaux: (1) Une première régulation de la croissance contrôlerait le nombre total de neuroblastes dans le massif d'accroissement externe, la quantité de ces cellules embryonnaires étant d'autant plus élevé que la densité de fibres post-rétiniennes serait plus forte. Par contre, le taux mitotique du massif d'accroissement, qui s'est révélé invariable, ne serait pas sous le contrôle des fibres post-rétiniennes. (2) Une seconde régulation, beaucoup plus précise, s'effectuant dans la lamina, consisterait en la différenciation des seules cellules ganglionnaires contactées par les fibres post-rétiniennes néoformées, les cellules surnuméraires dégénérant alors rapidement. L'action différenciatrice s'exercant au niveau des autres ganglions, medulla et lobula, nécessiterait la présence à la fois des fibres post-rétiniennes à orientation centripètes, et des fibres centrifuges. (3) Un ultime processus régulateur, qui implique l'intégrité des fibres postrétiniennes, assurerait le maintien des cellules ganglionnaires fonctionnelles.
    Notes: Summary Since to earlier results indicated a dependence of the optic lobe on the compound eye during post-embryonic development, it appeared essential to specify the part played by the post-retinal fibres connecting these two organs. Especially, we wondered if the mitotic activity in the outer optic anlage common to the two outer optic ganglia (lamina and medulla) was controlled by the number of newly-neoformed post-retinal fibres, or if the regulating influence from the post-retinal fibres takes place later, during the differentiation of the ganglion cells. In order to answer these questions, three kinds of operation were performed: (1) removal, in young larvae, of the zone producing new ommatidia. This operation deprives the optic of the arrival of new post-retinal fibres below the operated level. (2) overloading of post-retinal fibres, by inducing zones that produced supernumerary ommatidia. (3) removal of an ocular volet, followed by its immediate reinsertion, to provide a “surgery-control”. The following results were obtained: (1) A preliminary growth regulation controlled the total number of neuroblasts in the outer optic anlage. However, the permanent mitotic activity of these cells was not controlled by post-retinal fibres. (2) A second regulation, much more precise, occurring in the lamina, consisted in the differentiation of the ganglion cells being affected by the new post-retinal fibres. The supernumerary cells then rapidly degenerated. (3) A last regulatory process, implying the integrity of post-retinal fibres, maintained the ganglion cells.

    Notes: Summary Cell division during embryonic development of the brine shrimp,Artemia salina has been studied by counting nuclei and mitotic figures. No cell division was observed during development of the encysted gastrula until about an hour before emergence of the embryo (a pre-nauplius) from the cyst, and even then only a few mitotic figures were observed. Following emergence, and during further development up to the stage II nauplius larva an increase of about 25% in the number of cells occurs. However, when the newly hatched larva is exposed to FUdR (10 μg/ml) cell division is largely inhibited, but observable development nevertheless proceeds normally. Evidently all processes involved with the development of the gastrula into a stage II nauplius larva can occur with far fewer cells than normally are present.

    Notes: Abstract The rhythm of carbon dioxide output in Bryophyllum leaves was entrained on exposure to 0.25 h of white light every 24 h. Entrainment also occurred on similar exposure to monochromatic radiation in spectral bands centred at 660 nm and, to a lesser extent, at 730 nm, but a band centred at 450 nm was without effect. A “skeleton” irradiation programme comprising two 0.25-h exposures to white light per 24 h also entrained the rhythm when the intervening dark periods were either 7.5 h and 16 h, or 10.5 h and 13 h. The rhythm disappeared when the two exposures were separated by 11.5-h and 12-h dark periods. Regular 0.25-h exposures to red light separated by 11.75-h periods of darkness also resulted in loss of the rhythm. Red/far-red reversibility was observed in irradiation schedules having either one or two exposures to red light daily. In the latter case, far-red reversal of the effects of one of the exposures to red light resulted in entrainment of the rhythm by the other, instead of abolition of the rhythm. The occurrence of distinct red/far-red reversibility suggests strongly that phytochrome is the pigment involved in entrainment of this rhythm by cycles of light and darkness.

    Notes: Abstract Red light absorption by photosynthetic pigments screens stem tissue of Phaseolus vulgaris L. seedlings to such an extent that the most effective wavelength for the phytochrome induction control of stem growth is approximately 628 nm. Screening is greater in the first internode than in the hypocotyl. The consequences are that, compared with etiolated seedlings, much higher irradiances are required for phytochrome control in green plants, and the efficiency of 660 nm light is markedly reduced. Even very high exposures at 660 nm may not achieve appreciable photoconversion of P r to P fr.

    Notes: Abstract Protonemata of the fern Adiantum capillusveneris L., grown as single-cell filaments under continuous red light, were irradiated with a narrow beam of blue light. Only irradiation of the region containing the nucleus induced cell division. Beams of 30 μm in width, which corresponds to the diameter of the nucleus, or wider, were equally effective; beams 10 μm wide or less were less effective. The results indicate that the nuclear region is the site of the blue- and near ultraviolet-light-absorbing pigment (PB-NUV) which mediates the timing effect of cell division. In contrast, the effect of a narrow beam of far-red (FR) light, which delays the onset of the blue-light-induced cell division, was found to be present along the entire length of the protonema cell, including the largely vacuolated basal region of the latter. Polarized FR light having the electrical vector parallel to the protonema axis was less effective than that vibrating in other directions. These observations support the hypothesis that the phytochrome controlling the timing effect is localized in the plasma membrane.

    Notes: Abstract Light-stimulated transmembrane potential changes have been measured continuously after implantation of microelectrodes into subepidermal cells of the short-day plant Lemna paucicostata 6746. Irradiation for 5 min with white or red light caused a transient hyperpolarization. These potential changes could be suppressed with 10-6 M DCMU. Irradiation of DCMU-inhibited plants with far-red light for 5 min hyperpolarized the membrane potential, which thereafter was not changed by further far-red application. Consecutive red light irradiation for 5 min depolarized the membrane potential. The red/far-red reversibility of the potential changes (which could be repeated several times with a single plant) suggests the participation of phytochrome.

    Notes: Abstract For dark-grown seedlings of Pharbitis nil capacity to flower in response to a single inductive dark period was established by 24 h white, far-red (FR) or ruby-red (BCJ) light and by a skeleton photoperiod of 10 min red (R)-24 h dark-10 min R. FR alone was ineffective without a brief terminal (R) irradiation, confirming that the form of phytochrome immediately prior to darkness is a crucial factor for flowering in Pharbitis. The magnitude of the flowering response was significantly greater after 24 h FR or white light (WL) (at 18° C and 27° C) than after two brief skeleton R irradiations, but the increased flowering response was not attributable to photosynthetic CO2 uptake because this could not be detected in seedlings exposed to 24 h WL at 18° C. Photophosphorylation could have contributed to the increased flowering response as photosystem I fluorescence was detectable in plants exposed to FR, BCJ, or WL, but there were large differences between flowering response and photosystem I capacity as indicated by fluorescence. We conclude that phytochrome plays a major role in photoresponses regulating flowering. There was no simple correlation between developmental changes, such as cotyledon expansion and chlorophyll formation during the 24-h irradiation period, and the capacity to flower in response to a following inductive dark period. Changes in plastid ultrastructure were considerable in light from fluorescent lamps and there was complete breakdown of the prolamellar body with or without lamellar stacking at 27 or 18° C, respectively, but plastid reorganization was minimal in FR-irradiated seedlings.

    Notes: Abstract Red light treatment in vitro increases the pelletability of phytochrome in homogenates of etiolated barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. ‘Julia’) leaves. When mixtures of soluble phytochrome (100,000 x g supernatant) and partially-purified organelles (Sephadex G-50 eluate) are irradiated the amount of pelletable phytochrome increases by a factor of two. Pre-irradiation treatments show that phytochrome in both components of the mixture must be in the Pfr form for increased pelletability to be observed. Once associated, photoreversion of Pfr to Pr does not result in decreased pelletability. The results are consistent with a non-artifactual in vitro association of soluble phytochrome to organelle membranes. One possible explanation is that Pfr molecules associate to form dimers.

    Notes: Abstract Phytochrome of oat (Avena sativa L., cv. Garry) coleoptile cells in the red-light-absorbing form, Pr, is diffusely distributed while after conversion to the far-red-light-absorbing form, Pfr, it is observed only in very small areas within the cell. Comparison of phytochrome photoversibility measurements to the distribution of the pigment within the cell indicates that the spectral assay is not influenced by the observed compartmentalization of the chromoprotein. However, the observed compartmentalization of phytochrome is correlated with a loss in spectrophotometrically detectable Pr.
