The effect of water flow on photosynthetic processes of the alga Ulva lactuca L.

Photosynthetic rates of aquatic macrophytes are affected by the diffusion of carbon through the boundary layer which decreases with increasing flow velocities. This is shown by a significant increase in photosynthetic rates of Ulva lactuca fronds exposed to friction velocities (u _*) between 0.0 and 0.3 cm s^–1. No further increase in photosynthetic rates is observed at u _* values between 0.3 and 1.0 cm s^–1. Stagnating flow conditions at saturating light levels caused a 29% reduction in photosynthetic rates. Experiments in a closed system indicate that Ulva may utilize internal carbon sources during periods of stagnation. On a subtidal rock directly exposed to wave action, Ulva lactuca is not exposed to such conditions while in a wave flushed intertidal pool stagnation occurs during very short time intervals based on in situ measurements of u _* levels on fronds of this species using a microprocessor-controlled, autonomous recorder and hot-film sensors.

Influence of the route of administration on the pharmacokinetics of pirprofen enantiomers in the rat

The pharmacokinetics of the enantiomers of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug pirprofen were studied in male Sprague-Dawley rats after oral and intravenous (iv) doses of the racemate. No significant differences were detected between the enantiomers after oral or iv dosing in t_½, Vd, or ∑Xu. However, the R:S area under the plasma concentration (AUC) ratio after oral doses (0.92 ± 0.13) was slightly but significantly lower than after matching iv doses (1.05 ± 0.036). The absolute bioavailability of the active S-enantiomer (78.5%) after oral doses was higher than the inactive R-enantiomer (69.3%). The plasma protein binding of both enantiomers was saturable over a fivefold range of plasma concentrations. At higher plasma concentrations, the S-enantiomer was less bound than the R-enantiomer. In an in vitro experiment using everted rat jejunum, no chiral inversion was discernible. The dependency of the AUC ratio of the enantiomers on the route of administration may be due to stereoselective first-pass metabolism. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Stream channel experiments on downstream movement of recently emerged trout, Salmo trutta L. and salmon, S. salar L.—I. Effect of four different water velocity treatments upon dispersal rate

Four experimental stream channels were used to study instantaneous downstream dispersal rates of young trout, Salmo trutta L., and salmon, S. salur L ., relative to four different water velocities.
Young salmon showed a high rate of dispersal at a low velocity of 7.5 cm s⁻¹ and lower rates at higher velocities of 25 to 70cm s⁻¹. Trout showed their lowest rate at 25cm s⁻¹ with a slightly higher rate at 7.5 cm s⁻¹ and increasingly higher rates at velocities in excess of 25 cm s⁻¹. These results are consistent with field observations on the velocity preferences of young trout and salmon.     

Integrated Control of Sclerotium rolfsii on Groundnut in South Africa

Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc. causes disease of numerous crop plants worldwide, including groundnuts. Control of this pathogen is difficult as it produces sclerotia which overwinter in the soil to emerge as inoculum and cause disease the following season. Various chemical, biological and cultural control strategies have been suggested and implemented, some of which have reduced disease incidence in the field. No studies have yet been undertaken in South Africa to control this disease on groundnut, either chemically, biologically or by cultural practices. In this study, several strategies were investigated for the control of S. rolfsii on groundnuts. Difenoconazole was identified as a fungicide that could possibly be applied in combination with Trichoderma harzianum, a biological antagonist of S. rolfsii, above carbendazim and flusilazole, and chlorothalonil. Difenoconazole significantly reduced the growth rate of S. rolfsii but not of T. harzianum. The cultivation of infected fields with an inversion plough significantly reduced infection of groundnuts by S. rolfsii and also improved the quality of the produce, while yield was not increased. Lower plant density increased the incidence of disease in an infected field, and is therefore not considered to be a viable form of cultural control.     

心肌电兴奋传导速度对心律失常影响的仿真研究

心电场是由心肌的电活动产生的。心肌细胞的电特性及心肌细胞间的传导关系决定了体表电位的分布及心电图的变化。心肌电兴奋传导速度则是影响心肌间兴奋传导关系的重要参数之一。由于很难通过实验方法来人为改变电兴奋传导速度,因而临床上有关该参数对心律影响的定量知识相当缺乏。本文采用真实三雏躯干模型及心脏模型,对心肌电兴奋传导速度与心律变化的关系进行定量仿真研究。结果表明,兴奋传导速度决定了整个心电图的变化,而局部普通心肌的传导速度在相当范围内变化似乎对心电图影响不明显,但传导速度超过一定范围后可能产生突变。     

Gene rearrangements in Chlamydomonas chloroplast DNAs are accounted for by inversions and by the expansion/contraction of the inverted repeat

To gain insight into the mutational events responsible for the extensive variation of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) within the green algal genus Chlamydomonas, we have investigated the chloroplast gene organization of Chlamydomonas pitschmannii, a close relative of the interfertile species C. eugametos and C. moewusii whose cpDNAs have been well characterized. At 187 kb, the circular cpDNA of C. pitschmannii is the smallest Chlamydomonas cpDNA yet reported; it is 56 and 105 kb smaller than those of its C. eugametos and C. moewusii counterparts, respectively. Despite this substantial size difference, the arrangement of 77 genes on the C. pitschmannii cpDNA displays only three noticeable differences from the organization of the corresponding genes on the collinear C. eugametos and C. moewusii cpDNAs. These changes in gene order are accounted for by the expansion/contraction of the inverted repeat and one or two inversions in a single-copy region. In land plant cpDNAs, these kinds of events are also responsible for gene rearrangements. The large size difference between the C. pitschmannii and C. eugametos/C. moewusii cpDNAs is mainly attributed to multiple events of deletions/additions as opposed to the usually observed expansion/contraction of the inverted repeat in land plant cpDNAs. We also found that the mitochondrial genome of C. pitschmannii is a circular DNA molecule of 16.5 kb which is 5.5 and 7.5 kb smaller than its C. moewusii and C. eugametos counterparts, respectively.
