    Notes: Individual differences in stages 3 and 4 sleep are usually unrecognized., although several reports have mentioned large inter-individual variation of the stages within a restricted age range. This study investigated individual differences and nightly reliability in stages 3 and 4 sleep in a homogeneous sample of 34 young adult males. Sleep was analyzed from the final two of three consecutive lab nights. Results indicated that stage 4 steep was an exceedingly prominent individual difference. Stage 4 occupied 7.9 to 50.0 percent of the first 3 hrs after sleep onset and was highly reliable across nights (.78). Individual differences were less pronounced in the second 3 hrs after sleep onset. Stage 3 and stage 4 were reliably distinguished. Persons high in one of these stages had relatively little of the other. Combining stage 3 and stage 4 may be a reasonable strategy if visually scored delta activity per se is of interest, bat it may obscure potentially meaningful individual differences in which state is characteristically achieved.

    Notes: Velocities up to 108 cm s−1 have been obtained in laser implosion of gold-coated microballoons driven by irradiation at short wavelength. Despite a strongly nonuniform illumination, high neutron yield (i.e., high fuel temperature) has been obtained. Results analysis suggests that the glass shell is first decompressed by x-ray radiation from the gold coating and then accelerated by the ablation pressure.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les effets du surpeuplement larvaire sur le développement, la survie et la taille d'Haematobia thirouxi potans, ont été examinés sur de petites quantités de bouse (10 et 20 g) et de plus importantes (1 000 g), au laboratoire à 25°C. Les bouses étaient contaminées avec des oeufs de la mouche à des densités de 0,05 à 32 oeufs par gramme de bouse. Dans la plupart des cas le taux d'éclosion était de 90–100%. La durée du dévelopement larvaire dans 10 g de bouse a été prolongée pour les densités supérieures à 0,8 oeuf per g, et la durée développement pour 32 oeufs per g (11 jours) était le double de celle obtenue grand il n'y avait pas surpeuplement. La taille et la survie diminuent toutes les deux avec la densité larvaire, mais la miniaturisation était observée à des densités où la survie n'était pas modifiée; ainsi la taille est un indice plus sensible de l'adéquation de l'habitat larvaire. Les effets du surpeuplement larvaires deviennent clairs à des densités plus faibles avec 1 000 g de la bouse qu'avec 10 g. Il y a eu une taille minimale endessous de laquelle les larves étaient incapables de former une pupe. La probabilité d'éclosion était liée à la taille de la pupe, et une plus forte proportion de petits individus ne sont pas parvenu à éclore.
    Notes: Abstract The effects of larval crowding on development, survival and size of the African buffalo fly, Haematobia thirouxi potans (Bezzi), were examined in small (10 or 20 g) and 1 000 g masses of cattle dung in the laboratory at 25°C. Dung was infested with fly eggs at densities which ranged from 0.05 to 32.0 eggs per g dung; in most cases 90–100% of eggs hatched. The duration of larval developmentin 10 g dung masses was extended by larval crowding at densities above 0.8 eggs per g dung and the development period with 32 eggs per g dung (11 days) was double that observed in uncrowded dung masses. Both size and survival decreased with increasing larval density, but stunting was observed at lower densities than those which reduced survival and so size was the more sensitive index of the adequacy of the larval environment. The effects of larval crowding became evident at lower larval densities in the 1 000 g dung masses than in the 10 g dung masses. There was a minimum size below which third instar larvae failed to pupariate. The probability of survival was related to pupal size and a high proportion of the smaller individuals failed to eclose.

    Notes: Abstract Several gastrointestinal hormones have been found in the intestinal lumen, but as yet their physiologic role is not yet clear. We have previously shown in anesthesized animals that electrical vagal stimulation provokes simultaneous intraluminal release of serotonin (5-HT) and substance P (SP). The aim of this study was to investigate if a physiologic stimulus, a meal, releases 5-HT, SP, and gastrin (G) into the canine jejunum. In 10 dogs, chronic jejunal Thiry-Vella loops were perfused with saline (37°C) before and after: (1) a test meal; (2) atropine, 0.2 mg/kg intravenously before the meal; (3) atropine alone at the same dose; (4) propanolol, 0.5 mg/kg intravenously before the meal; and (5) propanolol alone at the same dose. Effluent perfusates and peripheral blood samples were assayed by radioimmunoassay for concentrations of 5-HT, SP, and G. Large amounts of all three humoral agents were found intraluminally during the interdigestive period. The meal resulted in increased circulating levels of 5-HT, SP, and G, while intraluminal concentrations of 5-HT and SP but not G increased following the meal. Both atropine and propanolol pretreatment significantly reduced this response, while alone, these drugs did not affect basal values. We postulate that 5-HT and SP released into the intestinal lumen in response to a meal act as local neurocrine/paracrine modulators. Their release mechanisms appear to be under both cholinergic and adrenergic control.

    Notes: Summary Strains of Aegilops squarrosa L. and Ae. ventricosa L. were pollinated either by Secale cereale L. or tetraploid triticale. Using in vitro culture of immature F1 embryos, the four corresponding hybrids were obtained. Successful doubling occurred following colchicine treatment, leading to the creation of new amphidiploid structures (C1 plants). These correspond to primary triticale forms involving, at three different levels of ploidy, both R and D full complements. The various combinations were compared for their response at successive steps of the process. Crosses involving Ae. squarrosa present a higher fruit setting than those with Ae. ventricosa, which in contrast yield colchicine treated-plants with better grain fertility. Experimental data on the cytological behaviour and fertility of colchicine-treated as well as amphidiploid plants are presented. The importance of this material in triticale breeding is discussed.
