Cell Growth and the Structure and Mechanical Properties of the Wall in Internodal Cells of Nitella opaca: II. MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF THE WALLS 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The internodal cells of Nitella opaca L. have been used in anattempt to assess the part which mechanical properties of thewall may play in the control of cell growth. It is shown thatthe wall is mechanically anisotropic in both its plastic andelastic properties, and evidence is presented which indicatesthat this arises from its anisotropy of structure. The degreeof anisotropy is greater in cells with a high growth-rate thanin those with a low growth-rate. Evidence is presented thatthis variation in properties with growth-rate is due wholly,or in part, to changes in the orientation of the crystallinecomponent, in the relative proportion of wall constituents,and in the condition of active groups of the wall components.The findings are in harmony with the theory that extension growthof the cell wall is due to creep, i.e. disturbancesof the molecular forces within the wall leading to a slow plasticyielding to turgor pressure. 相似文献

Data supporting the hypothesis about the epigenetic nature of deleterious mutations leading to the death of a part of the
progeny are presented. It is assumed that during the life cycle “mutant” variants of formation of structural-functional loop
domains occur in chromosomes that normally are corrected during meiosis. An abnormal loop changes the activity of many tens
of genes, both increasing (+) and decresing (−) it, which affects the viability of homozygotes and to a lesser extent the
viability of heterozygotes. Hybrids with chromosomes containing independently accumulated deleterious mutations partly restore
their viability due to the complementary interactions of + and − genes. 相似文献

In the literature there is disagreement about the existence of a coleorhiza in cycad embryos. In this paper the terminology
of the cycad ovule, seed and embryo is revised. It was confirmed that the cycad ovule and seed are pachychalazal and that
the seed coat is exclusively formed by the pachychalaza. The term ‘pleurotesta’ as a substitute for the so-called ‘endotesta’
is suggested to describe the inner, membranous part of the seed coat. The anatomy of the cycad embryo was studied in comparison
with the grass embryo and it was found that a coleorhiza does exist in cycad embryos and derives from the distal part of the
suspensor. It is postulated that the coleorhiza in grasses also derives from the distal part of the suspensor and that the
two structures are therefore structurally homologous. 相似文献

The results of long-term studies of two bank vole (Myodes glareolus) populations in stationary sites in the central part and periphery of its species area are described. Four phases of a multiannual
population cycle and two of its structural parts have been detected for both populations. The first part of the cycle is “determined,”
with the “peak” phase passing into a “depression” (population collapse). This transition is mainly determined by intrapopulation
processes and is weakly dependent on the external conditions of each individual year. The second part is “stochastic,” starting
from a stable point in the cycle in the depression phase. The duration of the second part is determined by the state of the
population and its ability to increase its size, as well as by the weather and food factors, predation pressure, and location
of the population within the species area. The transition from the peak phase to the depression phase (the determined part)
for both populations takes place during one fall-winter-spring season and has no effect on the cycle duration. The duration
of the stochastic part in the core of the species area (the period from depression phase to peak phase) is 1–3 years and in
the periphery, 2–4 years. 相似文献

Escape from pre-implantation lethality by homozygousyellow embryos depends on differentiation of trophoblastic cells. The evidence presented herein suggests that progesterone stimulated
differentiation of trophoblastic giant cells in some homozygousyellow blastocysts and thereby increased the percentage ofA
y/Ay “escaper” embryos.

Aesthetics is a vexed topic in philosophy, with a long history. For my purposes, an aesthetic experience is a foundational
affective response to an object, to which terms such as “ugly”, “beautiful”, “pretty” or “harmonious” are applied. These terms
are derived from a Discourse of aesthetics; some remain constant, others change from generation to generation. Aesthetics
and ethics have been linked in Western thought since the days of Plato and Aristotle. This essay examines what is happening
to that link in contemporary experience. It emphasises the ways in which the popular media exploit aesthetic appeal to penetrate
their market, and to exploit and frame intuitive responses to current and past events. Production values, the artfulness of
editors and the financial interests of producers and directors thus do much to determine contemporary aesthetic and ethical
judgements. That which is beautifully presented invites the ethical involvement of the audience. Events whose images are beautifully
presented constitute “hyperevidence”, a pre-judged, reinforced and amplified illusion of reality and participation. Understanding
how aesthetic excellence draws audiences into ethical relationship with what is presented becomes an important part of education
in ethics, including bioethics. 相似文献

Results of study of sock-eyed salmon Oncorhynchus nerka from the Apuka River—the largest river of the northeast of Kamchatka—inflowing Olyutorskii Bay of the Bering Sea are presented.
It is established that the school of the Apuka River is represented by the early-run sock-eyed salmon that spawns in Lake
Vatyg-Gytkhyn located in the lower part of the basin and by individuals of the later run that spawn in the upper reaches of
the river. Early-run sock-eyed salmon appears in the river with signs of spawning changes and a high value of gonadosomatic
index (GSI). Late-run sock-eyed salmon migrates to the river without signs of spawning changes and with a relatively low GSI.
The age composition of spawners of the early- and late-run sock-eyed salmon is different. 相似文献

Diets of the Oligocene anthropoidsAegyptopithecus zeuxis andApidium phiomense are inferred from measurements of the anterior and posterior dentition of these species. Ideas are presented which can be
checked as the hypodigms expand. Comparisons with extant anthropoids demonstrate a probably frugivorous diet forA. zeuxis, while the diet ofA. phiomense was not characterized by a high degree of frugivory requiring extensive incisal preparation of food. Additional inferences
about the diet ofA. phiomense might be gleaned from future examination of incisor morphology, implantation and occlusion. Even when allowance is made for
the presence of P2 inA. phiomense, the dietary position of this species with respect to extant anthropoids is equivocal, and it is possible that the normal
anthropoid relationship between anterior and posterior dentitions, with a small incisor span correlating with a great amount
of mastication, had yet to be developed.
This report is based in part on an invited paper “Function in primate masticatory musculature as demonstrated by muscle weights”
delivered at the symposium “The Behavioral and Morphological Adaptations to Diet Among Primates,” 46th Annual Meeting, American
Association of Physical Anthropologists, Seattle, Washington, April 13–16, 1977. 相似文献

The responses of “complex” simple cells to sharp and blurred ramp edges were studied. These responses are quite similar to
those in the case of lines, which implies that phase information cannot be used to discriminate between ramp edges and lines.
Furthermore, if the maximum of the modulus is used as a position estimate, a systematic bias toward the ramp side results,
and this bias increases with edge blur. In contrast, a local extremum in the real part of the cell responses provides a precise
position estimate, even for strongly blurred edges. Possible multiscale detection strategies are discussed in the context
of a syntactical visual reconstruction. This is illustrated by an explanation of Mach bands as perceived at trapezoidal edges,
including Ratliff’s Mach-band cancellation stimulus, and criteria for local probability summation in the prediction of Mach-band
detection thresholds are presented.

Factors concerning sexual discrimination and related sensory receptors were investigated on the hermit crabPagurus geminus. In the breeding season, male crabs of this species were observed to hold receptive females but to reject males. By using
this behavior, it was examined whether males on which some operation on the sensory receptors was performed could discriminate
between presented male of female crabs. Test males could not discriminate sexes of the presented crabs only when antennules
were removed bilaterally. On the other hand, intact test males reacted positively to an empty shell from which “female water”
exuded after passing through the chamber containing females. Thus, the factor by which the hermit crab discriminates sexes
was indicated to be a water-borne chemical and that the sensory receptor related to sex-discrimination appeared to exist on
the antennules. Discussions are made with respect to predicted substances taking part in sexual discrimination of this hermit
crab. 相似文献

This paper is a sequel to a paper by the author entitled “Restricted Transition Probabilities and Their Applications to Some
Problems in the Dynamics of Biological Populations” (Bull. Math. Biophysics, 1966,28, 315–331). The paper is divided into two parts. In part one some aspects of the maximum size attained by the population during
a finite time interval are studied for the case the stochastic process underlying the evolution of the population is a birth
process. Two interesting by-products emerge from the study presented in part one; namely a combinatorial method of finding
solutions to the Kolmogorov differential equations in special cases, and secondly, a set of criteria for the optimum allocation
of genotypes in the host population of a host-pathogen system. The optimum allocation of genotypes in the host population
is a problem of practical importance in controlling plant pathogens. In part two the theory of restricted transition probabilities
developed in the companion paper is applied in finding the distribution of the time to the appearance of the first mutation
for the case of a two dimensional birth process. The distribution of the time to the appearance of the first mutation is of
importance in understanding the role mutation plays in the evolution of a population, particularly in the pathogen population
of a host-pathogen system.

Heat waves are expected to increase in frequency and magnitude with climate change. The first part of a study to produce projections
of the effect of future climate change on heat-related mortality is presented. Separate city-specific empirical statistical
models that quantify significant relationships between summer daily maximum temperature (T
max) and daily heat-related deaths are constructed from historical data for six cities: Boston, Budapest, Dallas, Lisbon, London,
and Sydney. ‘Threshold temperatures’ above which heat-related deaths begin to occur are identified. The results demonstrate
significantly lower thresholds in ‘cooler’ cities exhibiting lower mean summer temperatures than in ‘warmer’ cities exhibiting
higher mean summer temperatures. Analysis of individual ‘heat waves’ illustrates that a greater proportion of mortality is
due to mortality displacement in cities with less sensitive temperature–mortality relationships than in those with more sensitive
relationships, and that mortality displacement is no longer a feature more than 12 days after the end of the heat wave. Validation
techniques through residual and correlation analyses of modelled and observed values and comparisons with other studies indicate
that the observed temperature–mortality relationships are represented well by each of the models. The models can therefore
be used with confidence to examine future heat-related deaths under various climate change scenarios for the respective cities
(presented in Part 2). 相似文献

By generating peptides from intracellular antigens which are then presented to T cells, the ubiquitin/26S proteasome system
plays a central role in the cellular immune response. The proteolytic properties of the proteasome are adapted to the requirements
of the immune system by proteasome components whose synthesis is under the control of interferon-γ. Among these are three
subunits with catalytic sites that are incorporated into the enzyme complex during its de novo synthesis. Thus, the proteasome
assembly pathway and the formation of immunoproteasomes play a critical regulatory role in the regulation of the proteasome's
catalytic properties. In addition, interferon-γ also induces the synthesis of the proteasome activator PA28 which, as part
of the so-called hybrid proteasome, exerts a more selective function in antigen presentation. Consequently, the combination
of a number of regulatory events tunes the proteasome system to gain maximal efficiency in the generation of peptides with
regard to their quality and quantity. 相似文献

The Krosno Formation of the Outer Carpathians is composed of synorogenic deposits laid down in the Silesian foredeep basin
in front of an accretionary prism. The Oligocene shales of the Krosno Formation from Świątkowa Wielka (the Polish part of
the Outer Carpathians) contain numerous authigenic carbonate rocks: concretions, a laminated limestone bed, and a carbonate
build-up consisting of intraformational breccia. The application of stable carbon isotope analysis revealed that the formation
of these carbonates was induced by methane oxidation. The presence of fossilized giant Beggiatoa-like filaments and large quantities of framboidal pyrite indicate that methane oxidation was microbially driven and coupled
with sulfate reduction. A model of origin of these cold-seep carbonates in relation to hydrocarbon seepage is herein presented.
Characteristic druses with clast-like appearance are thought to inherit their outlines from former clasts of gas hydrate that
had been present within the build-up. It is proposed that thick gas hydrate deposits existed in the southern part of the Silesian
basin at that time. This theory is consistent with regional, geotectonic, and palaeobathymetric data and provides a ready
explanation of the major phenomena that have been recorded in the Krosno Formation. 相似文献
