Artificial sowing of endangered dry grassland species into disused basalt quarries

Steppe-like dry (semi) natural grasslands are valuable and endangered habitats in central Europe. In the study area (the ?eské st?edoho?í Hills, Czech Republic), they occur in fragments on southern slopes of volcanic hills, often in the vicinity of quarries, which are numerous there. We performed sowing experiments and observed seedling recruitment of six species, typical for the dry grasslands, in 9 basalt quarries located in 3 different climatic regions over 3 yr. The sowing experiments were established in young successional stages, 5–12 yr after quarrying was stopped. The objectives of the experiments were to evaluate: (i) if seedling recruitment and survival of the target species are possible regarding different climatic regions and (ii) what is the influence of weather fluctuations among years on seedling survival. Seedlings of all studied species were able to recruit and survive in the early successional stages at least in some quarries. The species, except one, showed significant differences in recruitment among the climatic regions, with the best recruitment and survival in the driest and warmest region. Seedlings of two species did not recruit in the wettest and coldest region. All species survived in the driest and warmest region, while only one did so in the coldest and wettest region. Different weather conditions in the studied years significantly influenced recruitment of two species. The number of localities (floristic records) of particular species in the regions was the best predictor of species germination and survival. Thus a traditional floristic survey may help to predict success of species in restoration projects. It emerged that artificial sowing can be considered in restoration programs as a way of contributing to restoration of dry grasslands in disused quarries.     

Environmental control of clonal growth in Carex nigra: What can be masked under the name Carex nigra subsp. juncella in the Czech Republic?

Carex nigra plants forming elevated dense tussocks are often named C. nigra subsp. juncella, as opposed to rhizomatous C. nigra subsp. nigra. It is uncertain, however, whether the cespitose growth form is a hereditary trait useful for definition of the distinct taxon or a site modification of little taxonomic value. We used vegetation analyses (phytosociological relevés) to reveal main patterns in ecological demands of the cespitose C. nigra plants in the Czech Republic, and three cultivation experiments to assess changes in clonal growth of C. nigra under various environmental conditions. In the field the cespitose C. nigra plants were typically found in abandoned wet meadows near open water, whereas the rhizomatous morphotypes frequently occurred also in regularly mown wet meadows and in peat bogs. The cespitose growth form disappeared in the cultivations, and the rhizome system responded plastically to immediate environmental stimuli. Number of rhizome branches and mean rhizome length decreased after defoliation of aboveground parts and denudation of belowground parts, whereas increased due to inundation. In the population from a cold site in high altitude (Modrava, Šumava Mts.), however, the originally cespitose plants repeatedly produced shorter and less numerous rhizome branches than the rhizomatous plants cultivated in the same conditions. This suggests ecotypic (genetic) differentiation in some populations of C. nigra, driven by environmental selection for more compact growth form in climatically severe sites. The cespitose C. nigra plants thus arise polytopically, by different mechanisms. The growth form itself therefore cannot serve as the character reliably delimiting C. nigra subsp. juncella as the distinct taxon.     

Response of zooplankton to nutrient enrichment and fish in shallow lakes: a pan-European mesocosm experiment

1. Responses of zooplankton to nutrient enrichment and fish predation were studied in 1998 and 1999 by carrying out parallel mesocosm experiments in six lakes across Europe. 2. Zooplankton community structure, biomass and responses to nutrient and fish manipulation showed geographical and year‐to‐year differences. Fish had a greater influence than nutrients in regulating zooplankton biomass and especially the relative abundances of different functional groups of zooplankton. When fish reduced the biomass of large crustaceans, there was a complementary increase in the biomasses of smaller crustacean species and rotifers. 3. High abundance of submerged macrophytes provided refuge for zooplankton against fish predation but this refuge effect differed notably in magnitude among sites. 4. Large crustacean grazers (Daphnia, Diaphanosoma, Sida and Simocephalus) were crucial in controlling algal biomass, while smaller crustacean grazers and rotifers were of minor importance. Large grazers were able to control phytoplankton biomass even under hypereutrophic conditions (up to 1600 μg TP L^?1) when grazer biomass was high (>80–90 μg dry mass L^?1) or accounted for >30% of the grazer community. 5. The littoral zooplankton community was less resistant to change following nutrient enrichment in southern Spain, at high temperatures (close to 30 °C), than at lower temperatures (17–23 °C) characterising the other sites. This lower resistance was because of a greater importance of nutrients than zooplankton in controlling algal biomass. 6. Apart from the reduced role of large crustacean grazers at the lowest latitude, no consistent geographical patterns were observed in the responses of zooplankton communities to nutrient and fish manipulation.     

Viral clearance by flow‐through mode ion exchange columns and membrane adsorbers

Anion exchange (AEX) is a common downstream purification operation for biotechnology products manufactured in cell culture such as therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and Fc‐fusion proteins. We present a head‐to‐head comparison of the viral clearance efficiency of AEX adsorbers and column chromatography using the same process fluids and comparable run conditions. We also present overall trends from the CDER viral clearance database. In our comparison of multiple brands of resins and adsorbers, clearance of three model viruses (PPV, X‐MuLV, and PR772) was largely comparable, with some exceptions which may reflect run conditions that had not been optimized on a resin/membrane specific basis. © 2013 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.
