Angular sensitivity of the retinula cells of dark-adapted worker bee

Summary Electrophysiological determination of the angular sensitivity of 16 worker bee retinula cells gives a value for horizontal acceptance angle of 2.5°±0.4° (S.D.) and for vertical acceptance angle of 2.7°±0.8° (S.D.).This value is in agreement with previous behavioural studies, but is clearly at variance with a recent analysis of the ommatidial dioptric by ray optics, which gives a value of 5° for the acceptance angle. It is suggested that this results from the failure of ray optics to take diffraction effects into account.     

Ecological wood anatomy of NepaleseRhododendron (Ericaceae). 1. Interspecific variation

The relationship of selected wood anatomical characters of NepaleseRhododendron with stem diameter, plant height, altitude, and plant form was investigated. We studied one to three specimens each of 26 species: five species each of trees and subtrees I, three species of subtrees II, and 13 species of shrubs. Multiple regression analysis and actual distribution of character values show that pore characters and multiseriate ray ratio have a stronger correlation with stem diameter than altitude; that pore density, vessel element length, fiber-tracheid length, and multiseriate ray density and width are equally related to altitude and stem diameter, or to altitude and plant height; and that bar number, and multiseriate ray area and height have a stronger connection with altitude. Among the characters, average pore area is most strongly correlated with stem diameter and increases exponentially as diameter increases. For wood structure of NepaleseRhododendron, 17 to 63 % of the variation is affected by non-anatomical factors. The general trends in wood structure of NepaleseRhododendron show that trees and subtrees form one continuous unit whereas shrubs form another that often has wider ranges of variation.     

On the Effect of Correlation Between Plots in Randomized Block Experiments

Correlation between adjacent plots in field experiments are common. In this paper the effect of correlation on the usual analysis of variance in a randomized block design is studied. A generalised analysis of variance where correlation is taken into consideration, and the analysis of covariance where the residuals of the neighbouring plots are used as covariates, is discussed. Uniformity trials are used as a basis of a Monte-Carlo study. The generalised analysis improved the power of the tests. The analysis of covariance method was not better than the usual analysis of variance method.     

Additive and non-additive genetic parameters from clonally replicated and seedling progenies of<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Eucalyptus globulus</Emphasis>

The first estimates of the importance of epistatic effects within Eucalyptus globulus were obtained from analysis of clonally replicated full-sib progeny tests grown in Portugal. Parents comprised diverse selections from the Portuguese landrace. Variance components were estimated for 4-year-old diameter growth and pilodyn penetration, an indirect measure of wood density, both key traits in the pulpwood breeding objective. The experimental components of variance were used to estimate heritabilities and proportions of the phenotypic variance due to dominance and epistasis. The additive variance was the only significant genetic component affecting either diameter or pilodyn. Estimates of the additive, dominance and epistatic effects accounted for 8–10%, 0–4% and 0.4% of the phenotypic variance in diameter, and for 11–17%, 0% and 5% of the phenotypic variance in pilodyn, respectively. A comparison of residual coefficients of variation within seedling and cloned progenies indicated that C effects within clones were not a serious source of random variability. Despite the test sites encompassing a diverse range of locations, no important genotype by environment interaction was detected. The results suggested that an improvement strategy combining both recurrent selection for additive genetic merit and clonal testing may be adequate for optimizing genetic gains from this genetic base.Communicated by O.

Effects of population structure on within-group variation in the Jirels of Nepal

The impact of population structure on phenotypic differentiation is most frequently considered in terms of between-subdivision variation. However, the demographic and social structures of a population also induce changes in within-group variation. We analyze the intragenerational dynamics of within-group variation for the Jirels, a tribal population of eastern Nepal. In the analyses we utilized age- and sex-corrected cranial measures (head length, head breadth, bizygomatic diameter, minimum frontal diameter, and head circumference) available for 526 adults (ages 15-54 years). We used a multivariate measure of variance, the standardized generalized variance, to assess levels of within-village variability, quantifying the sampling variance for this statistic by using a jackknife methodology. To generate null expectations of within-group variation, we used permutation procedures, which permit robust testing of significance without distributional assumptions. We also compared the within-birthplace variation in adults to the observed within-residence variation to examine migration effects. Contrary to expectation, some villages with high rates of in-migration have less variability than those with few migrants. When differences between the sexes at birth are controlled for, females in some villages exhibit greater variance than males, reflecting known differences in sex-specific dispersal.

Effect of the reparative therapy on indices of lipid and phospholipid spectra of the blood plasma during neonathal enteropathology in calves

The paper deals with dynamics peculiarities of quantitave changes of the same classes of lipid and phospholipid spectra of blood plasma of calves which have recovered from dyspepsia. The obtained reliable changes of blood plasma lipidogrammas testify to development of dyslipidhaemia, hypercholesterolhaemia and hyperthreacylglycerolhaemia as well as the deficiency of choline fractions of phosphatide--main structural components of cell membranes. It was established that changes of lipid and phospholipid spectrum of the blood plasma caused by enteropathology could be corrected by the inclusion of reparative therapy remedies to dyspepsia treatment plan, in particular, experimental phospholipids-containing remedy, which is prepared on the basis of milk phospholipids--their natural source for newborn calves.     

Wood Anatomy and the Development of Interxylary Phloem of Ipomoea hederifolia Linn. (Convolvulaceae)

In Ipomoea hederifolia Linn., stems increase in thickness by forming successive rings of cambia. With the increase in stem diameter, the first ring of cambium also gives rise to thin-walled parenchymatous islands along with thick-walled xylem derivatives to its inner side. The size of these islands increases (both radially and tangentially) gradually with the increase in stem diameter. In pencil-thick stems, that is, before the differentiation of a second ring of cambium, some of the parenchyma cells within these islands differentiate into interxylary phloem. Although all successive cambia forms secondary phloem continuously, simultaneous development of interxylary phloem was observed in the innermost successive ring of xylem. In the mature stems, thick-walled parenchyma cells formed at the beginning of secondary growth underwent dedifferentiation and led to the formation of phloem derivatives. Structurally, sieve tube elements showed both simple sieve plates on transverse to slightly oblique end walls and compound sieve plates on the oblique end walls with poorly developed lateral sieve areas. Isolated or groups of two to three sieve elements were noticed in the rays of secondary phloem. They possessed simple sieve plates with distinct companion cells at their corners. The length of these elements was more or less similar to that of ray parenchyma cells but their diameter was slightly less. Similarly, in the secondary xylem, perforated ray cells were noticed in the innermost xylem ring. They were larger than the adjacent ray cells and possessed oval to circular simple perforation plates. The structures of interxylary phloem, perforated ray cells, and ray sieve elements are described in detail.     

Laser ablation of the sonic hedgehog-a-expressing cells during fin regeneration affects ray branching morphogenesis

The zebrafish fin is an excellent system to study the mechanisms of dermal bone patterning. Fin rays are segmented structures that form successive bifurcations both during ontogenesis and regeneration. Previous studies showed that sonic hedgehog (shha) may regulate regenerative bone patterning based on its expression pattern and functional analysis. The present study investigates the role of the shha-expressing cells in the patterning of fin ray branches. The shha expression domain in the basal epidermis of each fin ray splits into two prior to ray bifurcation. In addition, the osteoblast proliferation profile follows the dynamic expression pattern of shha. A zebrafish transgenic line, 2.4shh:gfpABC#15, in which GFP expression recapitulates the endogenous expression of shha, was used to specifically ablate shha-expressing cells with a laser beam. Such ablations lead to a delay in the sequence of events leading to ray bifurcation without affecting the overall growth of the fin ray. These results suggest that shha-expressing cells direct localized osteoblast proliferation and thus regulate branching morphogenesis. This study reveals the fin ray as a new accessible system to investigate epithelial-mesenchymal interactions leading to organ branching.     

Structure of the Bark and Clonal Variability in Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg. (Willd. ex A. Juss.)

Detailed studies have been made on the structure of the barkof ten Hevea clones and the clonal variabilities with regardto the density and size of ray groups, density of laticifersper row per unit circumference of the tree, diameter of laticifersand the extent of connection between laticifers. Clonal variabilitywas highly significant with regard to the density of ray groups,ray height, ray width in the laticifer layer and the laticifercharacters. The influence of ray characters on the orientationof laticifers and thereby its quantity is discussed. The scopeof using anatomical parameters for clone identification is examined.

Competitive processes in a monoculture of Pinus radiata D. Don

Summary The changes between 9 and 40 years of age of the frequency distribution of tree diameters were studied in an experiment in a plantation of Pinus radiata D. Don in South Australia in which the spacing between trees at planting varied. Empirical functions were developed to relate tree diameter to growth rate in diameter, variance of growth rate in diameter and mortality rate. These functions were used in solving a forward diffusion equation to predict future diameter distributions. The contributions from each of the terms in the diffusion equation were examined and it was found that the drift (growth rate in diameter) term made the greatest contribution to the solution, whilst the diffusion (variance in growth rate) term had neglible effect. This implied that competition between individual trees for light was the dominant competitive process operating in this plantation, rather than below ground competition for soil resources. The ramifications of this finding to forest growth modelling are discussed.     

Fine structure of the mature spermatozoon of rhynchocinetes typus,crustacea decapoda

Rhynchocinetes typus spermatozoa obtained from the vas deferens have the shape of a round-headed nail. The head measures 30 μm in diameter and 14 μm of height. At the center of the flat face of the head emerges a single rigid spike of 53 μm in length. Cross sections of this spike show that it has a wall of 0.4 μm in thickness and a core of 0.6 to 0.8 μm. The outer surface of the spike has a longitudinal striation. When the spermatozoa are placed in sea water it is possible to observe the unfolding of rays. The number of rays in different spermatozoa of the same individual varies from 9 to 13. Each ray is formed by a channel-like sheath that contains a rigid rod that occupies about 1/3 the length of the ray. This rod has a transverse striation with a periodicity of 185A. The rays are bound among them by a thin membranous sheet that is highly folded in vas deferens spermatozoa. At the distal end of each ray there is a rigid spine of 50 μm in length. The nucleus is coplanar to the radial plane and it extends through the rays. The structure and ultrastructure of R typus spermatozoa depart from that reported for spermatozoa of other Caridea species.
