    Notizen: Summary The offspring of rats that voluntarily select larger quantities of alcohol are heavier consumers of alcohol than the offspring of rats that tend to avoid it. Such selective breeding, repeated over many generations, was used to develop the AA (Alko, Alcohol) line of rats which prefer 10% alcohol to water, and the ANA (Alko, Non-Alcohol) line of rats which choose water to the virtual exclusion of alcohol. In addition to demonstrating the likely role of genetic factors in alcohol consumption, these lines have been used to find behavioral, metabolic, and neurochemical correlates of differential alcohol intake. Some of the line differences that have been found involve the reinforcing effects of ethanol, the changes in consumption produced by alcohol deprivation and nutritional factors, the behavioral and adrenal monoamine reactions to mild stress, the development of tolerance, the accumulation of acetaldehyde during ethanol metabolism, and the brain levels of serotonin. It is hoped that these studies will lead to a better understanding of the genetically-determined mechanisms that influence the selection of alcohol.

    Notizen: Summary Cerebral laterality can no longer be considered an exclusively human trait, as over the last 15 years there has been an emergence of data to suggest that animal brains are also lateralized. Morphologic, chemical and behavioral indices of brain asymmetry in the rodent have been reported, and it is suggested that variations in the magnitude and direction of these indices are determined by a complex interaction of genetic, hormonal and experiential factors. Interindividual differences in cerebral laterality have been shown to covary with, or predict, individual differences in spatial behavior and stress reactivity, as well as susceptibility to stress pathology and drug sensitivity. Such findings suggest that it is possible to study individual differences in lateralized brain function through the use of animal models.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Résumé Des plants de maïs se développent dans un phytotron dans 4 conditions d'humidité du sol (de la saturation à la dessication) et à 3 températures constantes (20°, 25° & 30°C). Chaque pied est contaminé au moment de l'émission du pollen, par une ooplaque d'O. nubilalis Hübn. (ECB) de race européenne E. L'installation, la colonisation et le développement des chenilles sont notés lors de 12 périodes de prélèvements destructifs (4 par température). La vitesse de développement d'O. nubilalis est affectée par la température, main non par l'humidité du sol. Les 4 niveaux d'humidité du sol n'ont aucun effet sur la teneur en eau des tiges de maïs. En fait, les feuilles de maïs présentent une senescence précoce lorsqu'il y a déficit en eau dans le sol. La teneur en eau du sol agit sur l'installation, sur la distribution verticale, la dispersion et le lieu d'alimentation des chenilles; mais ces effets sont légers et ne modifient pas la vitesse de développement. L'environnement larvaire dans la tige de maïs est efficacement isolé des variations externes par l'aptitude de la plante à maintenir la teneur en eau des tiges relativement élevée et stable. Ainsi, des changements importants au niveau du sol n'ont pratiquement pas d'effets sur le développement d'O. nubilalis, malgré les conséquences brutales pour la plante. Cette étude montre que la vitesse de développement d'O. nubilalis est relativement insensible aux modifications de la teneur en eau du sol ainsi qu'aux effets de ce stress de sécheresse sévère sur le pied de maïs. La discussion porte sur l'importance de ces résultats pour la modélisation de la dynamique de l'insecte, la physiologie de la culture et les interactions entre insecte et plante.
    Notizen: Abstract Maize plants were grown under four moisture regimes (wet to extreme deficit) and three constant temperatures (20°, 25° & 30°C) in a phytotron. Each plant was infested with one E-race European corn borer [Ostrinia nubilalis (Hubn.)] (ECB) egg mass at pollen shed. ECB development, location, and establishment were recorded over the course of 12 destructive sample dates (4/temperature). ECB developmental rates were not significantly affected by soil moisture treatments, but were significantly affected by temperature. In spite of successful establishment of four distinctly different soil moisture regimes, the maize stalk tissue water levels were not significantly different among soil water treatments. Instead, the maize plants exhibited accelerated leaf senescence in response to the water deficit conditions. Among the soil water treatments, differences were found in larval establishment, vertical distribution and dispersion, and feeding site selection; however, those effects were slight and could not explain the similarity in ECB developmental rates observed in these treatments. In maize, the larval environment within the stalk was effectively insulated from changes in the external environment by the plant's ability to maintain a relatively high and stable stalk tissue water content. Thus, large changes to the soil environment had essentially no effect on ECB development, though drastic consequences for the plant. This study indicates that ECB rates of development are relatively insensitive to changes in the soil water environment as well as the associated changes in the maize plant that accompany severe drought stress. The significance of these findings to insect modelling, crop physiology, and insect-crop interactions is discussed.

    Notizen: Abstract In the current practice of fish culture the use of hormones is mainly limited to the field of reproduction, and more precisely to induce or synchronize ovulation and stimulate spermiation. The practice of pituitary homogenates injection (called hypophysation) which started in the early 1930's has allowed spectacular developments in the culture of some cyprinid species, especially in China, India and Europe. HCG has been used successfully in a limited number of species and LHRH-A, often associated with antidopaminergic compounds, started to be used in some species, especially cyprinids, on a commercial scale. Sex steroids are now commonly used to reverse the sex of some species in salmonids, cyprinids, tilapias. Due to legal restriction and consumer opposition, the tendency is to limit the use of steroids, especially in fish which are later offered to consumption. GH, which significantly stimulates growth and reduces the food conversion rate in laboratory experiments, will possibly be used on a large scale in fish farms. Endocrinology has considerably increased the knowledge of the mechanisms controlling some physiological functions; this has allowed the identification of sensitive phases in fish in captivity, and helps in the management and the process of domestication (most of the cultured fish species have been taken form the wild recently).

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Die NeuweltaffenCallithrix jacchus, Marmosets, undSaguinus fuscicollis, Tamarine, sind, wie andere Affen auch, auf die externe Zufuhr von Ascorbinsäure angewiesen. Um bei Marmosets einen Serumspiegel oberhalb der Nierenschwelle zu erreichen, müssen ihnen täglich 15 mg/kg metabolischem Körpergewicht zugeführt werden. Die Nierenschwelle liegt bei ihnen im gleichen Bereich wie beim Menschen. Ein Vergleich des Ascorbinsäurespiegels zwischen den beiden Spezies aus einer Zuchtkolonie ergab einen gravierend niedrigeren Wert bei den Tamarinen. Bei beiden Spezies wurde Ascorbinsäure durch ungewohnte Versuchsbedingungen oder zusätzliche Streßfaktoren zu einem höheren Prozentsatz zu CO2 abgebaut, als wenn die Tiere an den Stoffwechselkäfig gewöhnt waren. Diese Isotopenexkretionsversuche mit14C-markierter Ascorbinsäure weisen auf ein unterschiedliches Stoffwechselverhalten von Ascorbinsäure zwischen den beiden Spezies hin, was vermutlich durch die höhere Streßanfälligkeit der Tamarine bei vergleichbaren Bedingungen verursacht ist.
    Notizen: Summary Like other simian primates, the New World monkeyCallithrix jacchus, marmoset, andSaguinus fuscicollis, tamarin, require ascorbic acid as an essential nutrient. For adult marmosets, a daily intake of 15 mg/kg metabolic body weight was found to be necessary to obtain a serum level above the kidney threshold. A survey of the serum ascorbic acid level of marmosets and tamarins in a breeding colony resulted in a vast divergence between the two species, indicating a higher ascorbic acid requirement for tamarins. Unaccustomed trial conditions or additional Stressors resulted in a higher catabolism of ascorbic acid to CO2 in both species, measured with14C labeled material, compared to a higher rate of renal excretion when the animals were accustomed to the metabolic cage. These isotope excretion studies suggest a different metabolic behavior of ascorbic acid in the two species. This is supposedly caused by a higher sensitivity of the tamarins when subjected to the same conditions as marmosets.

    Notizen: Summary 1. Glucocorticoid hormones affect several functions of the spinal cord, such as synaptic transmission, biogenic amine content, lipid metabolism, and the activity of some enzymes (ornithine decarboxylase, glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase), indicating that this tissue is a target of adrenal hormones. 2. Corticosterone, the main glucocorticoid of the rat, is detected at all regional levels of the spinal cord, and cold stress increases this steroid, predominantly in the cervical regions. 3. Intracellular glucocorticoid receptors have been found in the spinal cord, with higher concentrations in the cervical and lumbar enlargements. Prima facie, these receptors presented biochemical, stereospecifical, and physicochemical properties similar to those of receptors found in other regions of the nervous system. The prevalent form in the spinal cord is the type II receptor, although type I is also present in small amounts. 4. The type II glucocorticoid receptor of the spinal cord shows an affinity lower (K d 3.5 nM) than that of the hippocampal type II site (K d 0.7 nM) when incubated with [3H]dexamethasone. This condition may impair the nuclear translocation of the spinal cord receptor. 5. Another peculiar property of spinal cord type II site is a greater affinity for DNA-cellulose binding than the hippocampal receptor during heat-induced transformation. Also, the spinal cord receptor shows resistance to the action of RNAse A, an enzyme which increases DNA-cellulose binding of the hippocampal receptor, indicating that both receptors may be structurally different. 6. Therefore, it is possible that a different subclass of type II, or “classical glucocorticoid receptor,” is present in the spinal cord. This possibility makes the cord a useful system for studying diversity of glucocorticoid receptors of the nervous system, especially the relationship between receptor structure and function.

    Notizen: Abstract In the article, we present experimental data indicating that negative emotional states evoked by electrical stimulation of the ventromedial hypothalamus or by behavioral conflicts are accompanied by a predominance of vascular responses of a presser character possessing the property of summation. In contrast, positive emotional states during a self-stimulation reaction or when animals attain behavioral results satisfying their major biological demands are accompanied by a predominance of pressor-depressor vascular reactions. In individual animals under conditions of experimental emotional stress in conflicting situations of a prolonged character, pronounced disturbances of cardiac-vascular functions occur. Predominantly pressor vascular reactions arise in response to forced stimulation of the ventromedial hypothalamus in such cases. It is shown that changes in vascular tonus plays a leading role in disturbances of AP regulation during stress of immobilization. The most frequent cause of death in animals under such conditions is a progressive fall of AP due to an abrupt decrease in the total peripheral resistance. The resistance of the cardiac-vascular functions to emotional stress is determined to a significant degree by genetic mechanisms.

    Notizen: Abstract Available literature indicates that hurricanes do not generally produce long-term detrimental impacts to unmodified coastal systems and that they often provide net benefits along the U.S. Gulf Coast. While there is normally initial erosion from hurricanes, they also often result in a large influx of inorganic sediments, creating new wetlands and contributing to the maintenance of existing wetlands. The formation of washover deposits is disastrous where cultural development has occurred, but in natural areas these deposits are part of the natural cycle of shoreline development and contribute to habitat diversity and productivity. Abundant rainfall typically associated with hurricanes often results in large increases of sediment and nutrient inputs into coastal estuaries, leading to both short-term and long-term increases in productivity. Rainfall during tropical disturbances accounts for a significant part of total precipitation along the northern gulf. The immediate impact of hurricanes may be to reduce populations of some species but these populations generally recover rapidly. Overall, productivity in natural systems seems to be increased by periodic hurricanes. Hurricane impacts are often severe and long lasting in wetlands that have been modified by human impacts such as semi- or complete impoundments.

When femaleO. virilis were disturbed, form II males assumed low-level altert postures significantly more than when those females were undisturbed. Similar results were obtained when the source animals were femaleCambarus diogenes, a sympatric crayfish. When the newtNotopthalamus viridescens was disturbed, the crayfish responses were strong but resembled stress behavior. The responses by crayfish to disturbed vs. undisturbed catfish (Ictalurus natalis) were not significantly different.

    Notizen: Abstract The ultimate goal of ecotoxicological testing is to predict ecological effects of chemicals and other stressors. Since damage should be avoided rather than corrected after it occurs, the predictive value of such tests is crucial. A modest base of evidence shows that, in some cases, extrapolations from bioassays on one species to another species are reasonably accurate and, in other cases, misleading. Extrapolations from laboratory bioassays to response in natural systems at the population level are effective if the environmental realism of the bioassay is sufficiently high. When laboratory systems are poor simulations of natural systems, gross extrapolation errors may result. The problem of extrapolating among levels of biological organization has not been given the serious attention it deserves, and currently used methodologies have been chosen for reasons other than scientific validity. As the level of biological organization increases, new properties are added (e.g., nutrient cycling, energy transfer) that are not readily apparent at the lower levels. The measured responses (or end points) will not be the same at all levels of biological organization, making the validation of predictions difficult. Evidence indicates that responses of ecologically complex laboratory systems correspond to predicted and documented patterns in stressed ecosystems. The difficulties of improving the ecological evidence used to predict adverse effects are not insurmountable since the essence of predictive capability is the determination of effects thresholds at all levels of organization. The dilemma between basing predictive schemes on either traditional or holistic methods can only be solved by facing scientific and ethical questions regarding the adequacy of evidence used to make decisions of environmental protection.

    Notizen: Abstract The submerged aquatic vegetation of 17 Norwegian lakes is described and related to the environmental impacts that result from hydro-electric power (HEP) use of these lakes. Largely based upon physiognomical features, three main community types are discerned. These are denoted as (a) shallow-water, (b) mid-depth, and (c) deep-water community, respectively. The aquatic macrophytes are classified into a plant strategy framework. This classification suggests that these macrophytes frequently exhibit combined traits of the ‘S’ (stress-tolerating), ‘R’ (ruderal), and ‘C’ (competitive) strategies. A plant-strategy index for the lakes is derived from the species classification and related to their HEP use. Broadly, the response features of hydrolake vegetation are: (1) a decline in species richness; (2) the gradual disappearance of the shallow-water and mid-depth communities; (3) a conspicuous absence of vascular submerged macrophytes in storage hydrolakes when lake levels change more than 7 m annually, and; (4) an increased incidence of species possessing plant strategies of the ruderal (R) type. The implications of these results for an environmental impact assessment of hydropower schemes are discussed.

    Notizen: Abstract Various components of the ‘Microbial loop’ such as bacteria, heterotrophic nanoflagellates and autotrophic picoplankton were analyzed, for the first time across the Great Lakes, during a cruise in the summer of 1988. In addition, the size fractionated primary productivity using carbon-14 techniques was also determined. The statistical analysis indicated that bacteria, autotrophic picoplankton and ultraplankton/picoplankton productivity were significantly higher in Lakes Ontario and Erie than Lakes Huron and Michigan. The autotrophic picoplankton and ultraplankton/picoplankton productivity was higher in Lake Erie compared to Lake Ontario. The autotrophic picoplankton showed sensitivity to nutrients and contaminants in various types of environments. A dramatic decrease of autotrophic picoplankton in eutrophic-contaminated areas, such as Ashbridges Bay, Hamilton Harbour and western Lake Erie was observed. Conversely, in Saginaw Bay, another eutrophic environment, the autotrophic picoplankton were significantly higher than in Lake Huron. The sensitivity of autotrophic picoplankton to nutrients/contaminants might have implications to trophic interactions. Our results suggest that structural and functional characteristics of the ‘microbial loop’ may be operating differently in stressed versus unstressed ecosystems. The possibility of using autotrophic picoplankton as an early warning indicator of environmental perturbation is proposed.

    Notizen: Summary Breeding programs aim at improving crop production either within given macroenvironments (for example rainfed vs. irrigated) or in a wide range of growing conditions. The merit of either strategy depends on the range of testing environments and on the definition of stress environment. When environments with average yields of 3–4 t/ha are defined as ‘stress environments’, selection for stress conditions can be successfully conducted under optimum conditions. However, when the stress environment has a much lower yield potential (0.5–2.0 t/ha), direct selection in the target environment is the most efficient strategy. A review of data on ‘widely adapted genotypes’ supports this conclusion. The relative magnitude of heritability in stressed and non-stressed environments is not sufficient to choose the optimum environment for selection, because phenotypic differences can be of opposite sign in different environments. The role of constitutive characters as analytical tools in breeding for yield stability in stress environments is briefly discussed.
