1.  By penetrating axons in the ventral nerve cord of the dragonfly, Aeshna umbrosa, we measured the intracellular responses of target-selective visual interneurons to movement of black square targets ranging from 1° to 32° visual angle at several levels of mean background luminance.
2.  Neuronal responses, measured both in number of spikes and in the magnitude of integrated postsynaptic potentials, showed a preference for larger target size at lower mean luminance (Table 1, Figs. 1–3). The latency of postsynaptic potential (psp) and spike responses from onset of target movement increased with a decrease in mean luminance (Fig. 1).
3.  A measure of mean target size preference (Eqn. 1) for one identified interneuron (MDT4) in both laboratory and outdoor lighting shows a continuous decrease of preferred size with increases of mean luminance over more than 4 orders of magnitude.
4.  The time to reach the new steady state of cell response after the decrease of mean luminance was ordinarily less than 30 s, but sometimes longer (Fig. 4).

Over 1500 root-nodule bacteria were isolated from a range of uninoculated soybeans, and one cowpea, trap-hosts, sown in 1985 into traditional soybean-growing areas of soybean-growing areas of northern Thailand. Most isolates were slow-growing Bradyrhizobium japonicum. Using a modified bottle-jar technique, 586 of the isolates were tested with a range of soybean hosts and one cowpea host. The results indicated:
(a)  a very high level of infectiveness, with only one isolate failing to nodulate one host, and 95% forming \s>20 nodules per plant;
(b)  a high level of effectiveness of fixation of nitrogen by the local rhizobium populations with soybeans;
(c)  evidence of selection of effective strains by both soybean and cowpea hosts in the field;

The angular distribution of the optical axes of the ommatidia in the eyes of waterstriders (Gerris lacustris) has been investigated using antidromic illumination.
1.  Each eye contains about 920 ommatidia arranged in approximately 40 nearly horizontal rows (Figs. 5, 6).
2.  There is an acute zone (visual streak) of ±5° around the eye equator with high vertical resolution (Fig. 9).
3.  The horizontal interommatidial angle oh varies little with altitude and is in the frontal parts of the eye equal to the (horizontal) interrhabdomere angle rh (Fig. 10).
4.  Above and below the visual streak the eye is adapted to the perception of relative height or depth constancy (Fig. 13).
5.  Reconstruction of the viewing directions of the rhabdomeres in the visual streak reveals that characteristic groups of rhabdomeres in different ommatidia coincide in their receptive fields. Optical prerequisites for two types of neural superposition can be found: one of medium neural summation but highest sampling frequency, the other of highest neural summation at the cost of resolution (Fig. 11).
6.  The correspondence of the limits of resolution due to diffraction and finite sampling frequency is discussed.

1.  Inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (ipsps) produced by two classes of interneurons, CC (contralateral and caudal projecting) and lateral interneurons, were tested for strychnine sensitivity using paired intracellular recordings in the lamprey spinal cord. The ipsps were partially blocked by 0.2–0.5 M strychnine and were completely blocked by 5 M strychnine. Thus, the ipsps may be glycinergic.
2.  These interneurons are key participants in a proposed circuit model for fictive swimming. A connectionisttype computer simulation of the model demonstrated that the cycle period of the network increased with decreasing ipsp strength.
3.  Application of strychnine (0.1–0.5 M) to the spinal cord during fictive swimming induced by an excitatory amino acid increased cycle period, consistent with previous reports, but at odds with stimulation predictions.
4.  Strychnine also produced slow rhythmic modulation of fictive swimming (period = 12 s) which maintained left-right alternation and rostral-caudal coordination. Auto- and cross-correlation analyses revealed that the slow modulation was present in a weaker form in most control preparations during fictive swimming.
5.  Since the proposed model for the swimming pattern generator in the lamprey spinal cord does not predict the observed speeding with strychnine, nor the slow modulatory rhythm, it appears to be deficient in its present formulation.

1.  Responses of single olfactory receptor neurons to pheromones were recorded with tungsten microelectrodes on the antennae of male Helicoverpa (Heliothis) zea. Recordings were obtained from the male specific sensilla trichodea type 1.
2.  More than half (49/91 units) could be classified as olfactory receptor neurons, 35 of which were selective for pheromone components of the heliothine moths H. zea and Heliothis virescens. The majority (31/35) were most responsive to the principal component (Z)-11-hexadecenal (Z11-16AL). The other 4 were tuned to (Z)-9-tetradecenal (Z9-14AL), which is a pheromone component in the sympatric species H. virescens, and also interrupts attraction of H. zea males.
3.  The specificity and sensitivity of these neurons were similar to the corresponding neurons in H. virescens, suggesting homologous populations of neurons in the two species. No other neurons selective for other pheromone compounds were identified.
4.  Receptor neurons of both types (tuned to Z11-16AL and Z9-14AL respectively) showed variations in temporal response characteristics. Some responses showed a pronounced phasic spiking component, a rapid decay, and return to background activity after stimulation. Other responses were more prolonged, far outlasting the stimulation period. Phasic neurons also followed short, rapid stimulus pulses better than tonic neurons, suggesting that they may encode different features of an intermittent pheromone plume.

The rich deciduous woodland at Loi, Luster, Inner Sogn, 61° 20 N., was traditionally used for fodder production from both tree and field layer. After more than nearly 40 years of disuse and secondary forest succession, experimental efforts were made to restore the traditional agricultural meadow woodland. Following a detailed preliminary registration of the vegetation the following measures were taken:
1.  The understory tree layer, mainly Alnus incana was removed.
2.  The old Ulmus glabra pollards were pruned back to traditional shape, as were some tall shurbs of Corylus avellana.
3.  The field layer was mown once or twice yearly.
The main results are:
1.  The pollarded elms have developed bundles of new twigs at the pruning points and are in good condition.
2.  After an expansion of tall, nitrophilic herbs, e.g. Urtica dioica, Impatiens noli-tangere and Rubus idaeus, low and medium sized herbs and grasses have increased both in numbers, frequency and abundance. Helio- and thermophilic forest margin species are also more prominent. The moss layer has also become more dense and varied.
3.  The average number of species in permanent plots has nearly doubled.

1.  An extracellular recording and staining technique has been used to study the structure of individual ventral-cord elements in the auditory pathway ofLocusta migratoria.
2.  Three groups of auditory ventral-cord neurons can be distinguished: (a) neurons ascending to the supraesophageal ganglion, (b) T-shaped neurons, and (c) neurons limited to the thoracic ventral cord.
3.  The ventral-cord neurons ascending to the supraesophageal ganglion link the auditory centers of the thorax to those of the supraesophageal ganglion. These are, at least in part, richly arborized neurons of large diameter.
4.  The ventral-cord neurons with T structure send equivalent signals along both arms of the T; they resemble the neurons of the first group in that they make synaptic connections in the supraesophageal ganglion, but they also conduct auditory information to caudal regions of the thorax via the descending trunk of the axon.
5.  In the supraesophageal ganglion there are several extensive projection areas of the auditory ventral-cord neurons. No direct connections to the mushroom bodies, the central body or the protocerebral bridge could be demonstrated.
6.  The thoracic ventral-cord neurons act as short segmental interneurons, providing a connection between the tympanal receptor fibers and the ascending and T-shaped ventral-cord neurons. They play a crucial role in auditory information processing.
7.  The possible functional properties of the various morphological sections of the auditory ventral-cord neurons are discussed, with reference to their connections with motor and other neuronal systems.

1.  When Xenopus laevis embryos swim into an obstruction they usually stop. This stopping response to stimulation on the head is present from stage 28 to 45. At stage 37/38 it is more reliable in restrained than in free-swimming animals, and to stimuli to the cement gland than to the head skin. Fictive swimming also stops reliably after the same stimuli but struggling and fictive struggling do not.
2.  Discharge of deformation-sensitive trigeminal sensory neurons in response to pressure on the cement gland or head skin precedes the fictive stopping response. When the embryo hangs from cement gland mucus, trigeminal neurons are active and the embryo is less responsive to stimulation.
3.  Lesions of the central nervous system have allowed us to draw the following conclusions about this inhibitory pathway: (a) either the cement gland or the head skin must be intact; (b) one trigeminal ganglion is both sufficient and necessary; (c) the pathway is independent of the forebrain and midbrain; (d) it can take an ipsilateral or contralateral route through the hindbrain; (e) at least two hindbrain interneuron components are involved.
4.  A similar stopping response is present in embryos and larvae of the urodele Ambystoma mexicanum.

1.  The effects of the odorant compounds adenosine-5-monophosphate (5AMP), ammonium, betaine, L-cysteine, L-glutamate, DL-succinate, and taurine and of mixtures of these comounds on binding of taurine and 5AMP to dendritic membrane from the olfactory organ of spiny lobsters (Panulirus argus) were quantified to evaluate the contribution of inhibition of odorant-receptor binding to the generation of physiological responses to mixtures.
2.  Taurine binding sites belong to two affinity classes, while 5AMP binding sites belong to a single affinity class. Binding of either taurine or 5AMP was partially inhibited in an apparently noncompetitive, concentration dependent fashion by most odorant compounds, with 25–40 % inhibition by 1 mM of odorant. Mixtures of two or more odorant compounds also inhibited binding of taurine or 5AMP to its sites. However, the inhibition by mixtures was often significantly less than expected from the inhibition produced by a mixture's components assuming either a noncompetitive or competitive mechanism.
3.  By including this binding inhibition between compounds into models for predicting physiological responses to mixtures from the responses to the components, the predictive power of the models is significantly improved. This result strongly suggests that binding inhibition can influence the physiological responsiveness of chemoreceptor cells to mixtures.

1.  Spectral-sensitivity functions of large-field movement-detecting units in the lobula plate of the dronefly Eristalis tenax L., which is a Batesian mimic of the honeybee, were measured using visual stimuli consisting of light flashes, or moving gratings. Two classes of units were studied, one class responding to inward horizontal motion in the contralateral eye (presumably the homologue of the well-known HI in other fly species), and the other class responding to vertically-down-ward motion in the contralateral eye.
2.  In both classes of units, the spectral-sensitivity function of the response to flashes is characterized by two peaks, one in the UV at ca. 350 nm and the other in the blue at ca. 475 nm (Figs. 3, 8). It resembles the spectral-sensitivity function of the R1-R6 class of receptors in other flies.
3.  In both classes of units, the spectral-sensitivity function of the response to movement is characterized by a single peak, occurring in the blue at ca. 450 nm (Figs. 7, 9).
4.  Control experiments on homologous units in the Australian Sheep Blowfly Lucilia cuprina, using identical stimulating conditions reveal that the response to flashes as well as movement possesses a dual-peaked spectral sensitivity, with one peak in the UV and the other in the blue-green region of the spectrum (Figs. 10–12).
5.  The results indicate that the pathways subserving the inputs to movement-detecting neurons in Eristalis are driven by more than one spectral class of photoreceptors. They also reveal that the spectral sensitivity of movement detection in Eristalis bears a closer resemblance to that of the honeybee, than to that of other flies. This similarity to the honeybee may arise from the fact that the dronefly and the honeybee occupy similar ecological niches, both foraging for nectar in flowers.

1.  Chronic ingestion of caffeine by male NIH strain mice alters the density of a variety of central receptors.
2.  The density of cortical A1 adenosine receptors is increased by 20%, while the density of striatal A2A adenosine receptors is unaltered.
3.  The densities of cortical 1 and cerebellar 2 adrenergic receptors are reduced byca. 25%, while the densities of cortical 1 and 2 adrenergic receptors are not significantly altered. Densities of striatal D1 and D2 dopaminergic receptors are unaltered. The densities of cortical 5 HT1 and 5 HT2 serotonergic receptors are increased by 26–30%. Densities of cortical muscarinic and nicotinic receptors are increased by 40–50%. The density of cortical benzodiazepine-binding sites associated with GABAA receptors is increased by 65%, and the affinity appears slightly decreased. The density of cortical MK-801 sites associated with NMDA-glutaminergic receptors appear unaltered.
4.  The density of cortical nitrendipine-binding sites associated with calcium channels is increased by 18%.
5.  The results indicate that chronic ingestion of caffeine equivalent to about 100 mg/kg/day in mice causes a wide range of biochemical alterations in the central nervous system.

Being able to carry zidovudine (AZT) at known concentrations into CD4+/CD38+ and CD14+ cells permits:
–  - to reduce the drug dosage and to increase the interval for administration (until 1 dose I.V. every week);
–  - to modulate the drug concentration into the CD4+/CD38 an CD14+ cells in relation to the in vitro determined HIV sensitiveness;
–  - to eliminate haematological, medullary and general toxicity;
–  - to be able to treat severely hill patients.
Further studies are necessary in order to:
–  - To find out the better phase to start the therapy;
–  - To use several drugs with different mechanisms of action in order to slow down as much as possible the presence of resistant viral strains.
–  - As for other drugs which are beginning to be used with artificial vehicles, futher studies are required to improve the selectivity and safety of LIPOAZT for the target cells including macrophages.

1.  The neuroantibody approach, based on the expression of selected monoclonal antibodies by cells of the nervous system, has recently been described (Cattaneo and Neuberger, 1987; Piccioliet al., 1991). In order to apply this experimental strategy to study the role of nerve growth factor (NGF) in the central nervous system (CNS), we exploited the monoclonal antibody (mAb),D11, which neutralizes very efficiently the biological activity of NGF, bothin vitro andin vivo (Cattaneoet al., 1988).
2.  TheD11 antibody chains were cloned and expressed in COS cells as rat/human chimaeric proteins. The cloned antibody was shown to display all the properties of the parentalD11 antibody, including its ability to neutralize NGF biological activity.
3.  This will allow us to engineer the expression of recombinantD11 antibodies in the CNS, to study the role of NGF in the developing and adult nervous system. This approach can be extended to other neurotrophic factors for which neutralizing monoclonal antibodies are available.

Flight metabolism of locusts has been extensively studied, but biochemical and physiological methods have led to conflicting results. For this reason the non-invasive and non-destructive method of 31P NMR spectroscopy was used to study migratory locusts, Locusta migratoria, at rest and during flight.
1.  In the flight muscle of resting locusts the ratio of phosphoarginine to ATP was the same whether determined by NMR (1.76) or biochemically, but the NMR-visible content of inorganic phosphate (Pi) was only 40% of ATP, i.e., much lower than total Pi as determined biochemically. This suggests that most of the Pi in flight muscle is not free, and hence not available as substrate or effector for cytosolic enzymes. Similarly, the free content of ADP and AMP in resting muscle was calculated to be much lower than the total content.
2.  Flight brought about a marked increase in Pi and a decrease in phosphoarginine in flight muscle although there was no change in intracellular pH.
3.  At the initiation of flight a new steady state of ATP, Pi, and phosphoarginine was rapidly established and minimal changes occurred after the first 2 s of flight.
4.  From the free contents of ATP and phosphoarginine in working flight muscle the flight-induced fractional increases in free ADP and free AMP were calculated to be 5.0-fold and 27.4-fold, respectively. As Pi, ADP, and AMP are substrates and potent effectors of enzymes, the flight-induced increase in their contents is likely to have marked effects on metabolic flux in working muscle.
5.  After short-term flight as well as prolonged flight, phosphoarginine, ATP, and Pi returned rapidly to their preflight levels, indicating that metabolic recovery from flight is rapid.
6.  The locust appears to be an appropriate model for the study of metabolic regulation in aerobic muscle during exercise.

1.  The ecdysial growth of cercal filiform hairs was investigated in the cricketGryllus bimaculatus. The length of hairs varied from 40 to 500 m in the 1st, from 40 to 650 m in the 3rd and from 30 to 800 m in the 5th instar nymphs (Fig. 1). Hemimetabolous development causes both hair growth and the appearance of new hairs at each ecdysis (Figs. 2, 3). The newly acquired hairs were shorter than 200 m in every case (Fig. 4).
2.  Velocity thresholds of cercal sensory interneurons (CSIs) to sinusoidal air-currents were measured in 3rd instar nymphs (Fig. 5 A, B, C). CSIs 8-1 (medial giant interneuron: MGI) and 9-1 (lateral giant interneuron: LGI) showed threshold curves of acceleration sensitivity similar to those in adults. The thresholds for CSIs 8-1 and 9-1 were on the average higher in nymphs than in adults. The threshold curves for the two velocity-sensitive CSIs 10-2 and 10-3 were similar for nymphs and adults.
3.  Velocity thresholds of cercal filiform sensilla were measured in 3rd instar nymphs (Fig. 6). In spite of the small size of nymphal hairs, the most sensitive ones showed the same sensitivity as did the long 1000 m hairs of the adult.
4.  The filiform hairs in 3rd instar nymphs were supported by a weaker spring than in adults (Fig. 7). Relative stiffness was about 50% of that in the long hairs in adults, but not much different than that in the short hairs.
5.  Based on a theoretical estimation of hair motion, the threshold angle of a filiform sensillum in the 3rd instar nymph was calculated (Fig. 9). Threshold angles of the long sensilla seemed to be unchanged throughout hemimetabolous development.

1.  In order to understand the functional organization of the crustacean olfactory system, we are using intracellular recording and staining techniques to correlate the structure and function of single, odorant-sensitive interneurons in the brain of the crayfishProcambarus clarkii. We describe here the anatomy and physiology of interneurons that connect the brain with the medullae terminales or other eyestalk ganglia.
2.  All of the interneurons in our study (Table 1, Figs. 3–15) are at least third-order olfactory neurons (second-order olfactory interneurons) because they respond to chemostimulation of the olfactory organ (the antennules) but do not branch in the olfactory lobe (the neuropil to which primary olfactory receptor cells of the antennules project).
3.  Much of the central nervous system, including the three main divisions of the brain (protocerebrum, deuterocerebrum, tritocerebrum) (Fig. 1) and the medullae terminales (Fig. 2), are involved in integrating olfactory or multimodal (including olfactory) information, since these areas contain neurites of olfactory interneurons. Previous studies have indicated that regions involved in such processing include the olfactory lobes and accessory lobes of the deuterocerebrum, and regions I, II, IV, and VII (in some species) of the medullae terminales. Our results show that also prominent among regions involved in olfactory or multimodal (including olfactory) integration are the anterior and posterior optic neuropils of the protocerebrum (Figs. 3–11, 14, 15), the lateral and medial antennular neuropils of the deuterocerebrum (Figs. 3, 4, 7), the tegumentary neuropils (Figs. 3, 4, 8, 11) and the antennal neuropils (Figs. 3–5) of the tritocerebrum, and neuropils III, VI, XII of the medullae terminales (Figs. 12, 13).
4.  These olfactory interneurons were sensitive to chemostimulation (unimodal), chemo- and mechanostimulation (bimodal), or chemo-, mechano-, and photostimulation (trimodal) (Table 1). Responses could be excitatory or inhibitory, even for a given neuron (Table 1). Morphologically complex interneurons (those having bilateral branching) were more likely to have complex response characteristics (trimodal sensitivity) (Figs. 8–12) than were morphologically simpler interneurons (those having unilateral branching) (Figs. 3–7, 14, 15). Olfactory interneurons with a soma in the medulla terminalis showed the most complex response profiles: they were trimodal, and were excited by odorants but were inhibited by touch and/or light (Figs. 12, 13). This finding suggests that these are complex, high order interneurons.
5.  Our studies reveal that olfactory and other sensory information is transmitted between the brain and the medullae terminales (and possibly other eyestalk ganglia) by a coactivated, parallel array of structurally and functionally diverse neurons.

1.  There are two types of cold receptors on the antennae of Periplaneta americana. One type of cold receptor is present in a thermo- and hygroreceptive sensillum along with a moist receptor and a dry receptor, and the other is in a thermoreceptive and olfactory sensillum along with olfactory receptors. These two types of cold receptors were investigated using stimulations of constant temperature (T), stepwise decrease of temperature (T), and constant rates of temperature decrease (dT/dt).
2.  For cold receptors in the thermo- and hygroreceptive sensilla (C-H cells), steady-state activities are higher at lower constant temperatures (T) within the range of 16–31 °C examined (n = 7). On the other hand, those of the cold receptors in the thermoreceptive and olfactory sensilla (C-O cells) have individually a broad activity maximum in the range of 18–27 °C (n = 7).
3.  The differential sensitivity to downward temperature steps (T) of C-H cells was in the range of - 5.4 to - 12.4 (impulses/s)/°C (n = 11). It was higher at lower adapting temperature, from which changes were initiated, in the range of about 21 to 31 °C, that is, it was reflected by the steady-state activity at the initial and adapting temperature. On the other hand, the differential sensitivity of C-O cells was in the range of - 10.7 to- 15.2 (impulses/s)/°C (n = 9), and was little reflected by the steady-state activity.
4.  Responses to decreasing temperature in C-H cells (n = 14) are negatively related to the rate of temperature decrease (dT/dt) in the range of about 0 to - 0.16 °C/s at given temperatures, and are also affected by instantaneous temperature (T) in the range of 18 to 30 °C. This dependence is also observed in C-O cells (n = 10), but less pronounced than in C-H cells.

1.  The effects of three barbiturates and the local anesthetic procaine on the ion channel function of mouse nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) muscle subtype expressed inXenopus laevis oocytes were examined by whole-cell voltage-clamp technique.
2.  A concentration-response curve for the specific nicotinic agonist dimethylphenylpiperazinium iodide (DMPP) was first determined. This agonist produced increasing whole-cell currents up to a concentration of 100µM (EC50 = 13µM), then decreased responses at higher concentrations.
3.  The barbiturates (amobarbital, secobarbital, pentobarbital) and procaine produced reversible inhibition of DMPP-induced currents at clinically used concentrations. The two classes of drugs differed in the voltage dependence of the inhibition: procaine-induced inhibition was increased at more negative transmembrane holding potentials (-90 vs. -45 mV); whereas amobarbital-induced inhibition did not vary at different transmembrane potentials.
4.  Mutant forms of the nAChR, containing single amino acid changes in the M2 regions of and subunits, showed increased sensitivity to procaine but no change in sensitivity to amobarbital-induced inhibition.
5.  These electrophysiologic studies provide further evidence that barbiturates and local anesthetics produce inhibition of the nAChR at different sites.

1.  Honey bees (Apis mellifera, worker) were trained to discriminate between two random gratings oriented perpendicularly to each other. This task was quickly learned with vertical, horizontal, and oblique gratings. After being trained on perpendicularly-oriented random gratings, bees could discriminate between other perpendicularly-oriented patterns (black bars, white bars, thin lines, edges, spatial sinusoids, broken bars) as well.
2.  Several tests indicate that the stimuli were not discriminated on the basis of a literal image (eidetic template), but, rather, on the basis of orientation as a single parameter. An attempt to train bees to discriminate between two different random gratings oriented in the same direction was not successful, also indicating that the bees were not able to form a template of random gratings.
3.  Preliminary experiments with oriented Kanizsa rectangles (analogue of Kanizsa triangle) suggest that edge detection in the bee may involve mechanisms similar to those that lead to the percept of illusory contours in humans.

1.  We examined the retinas of 2 species of stomatopods in the superfamily Squilloidea, Cloridopsis dubia and Squilla empusa, and 2 species of the super-family Lysiosquilloidea, Coronis scolopendra and Lysiosquilla sulcata, using microspectrophotometry in the visible region of the spectrum.
2.  Retinas of all species included numerous photostable pigments, such as green reflecting pigment, hemocyanin, colored oil droplets, and vesicles. Both lysiosquilloid species also had intrarhabdomal filters within specialized photoreceptors of the midband.
3.  Squilloid species contained a single visual pigment throughout all photoreceptors, with peak absorption at medium wavelengths (near 515nm). Retinas of lysiosquilloids contained a diversity of visual pigments, with estimated max values ranging from 397 to 551 nm.
4.  Spectral sensitivity functions were estimated for the lysiosquilloid species based on estimates of visual pigment nax, photoreceptor dimensions, and specific absorbances of the visual pigments and intrarhabdomal filters. Ommatidia of midband Rows 1 to 4 contained pairs of narrowly tuned spectral receptors, appropriate for spectral discrimination, while ommatidia of midband Rows 5 and 6, and all peripheral ommatidia, had broad spectral sensitivity functions.
5.  Lysiosquilloid stomatopods have retinas that closely resemble those of gonodactyloids both structurally and in their visual pigment diversity. In contrast, squilloids have retinas that are much simpler. These differences appear to be related to the habitats and activity cycles of species belonging to the 3 major superfamilies of stomatopod crustaceans.
