    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les mécanismes de la résistance du sorgho à la punaise C. angustatus ont été examinés au champ et au laboratoire. Les préférences des adultes ont été examinées avec choix multiples au champ et au laboratoire sur les 5 cultivars relativement moins sensibles (IS 2761, IS 9692, IS 17610, IS 17618, IS 17645) comparés aux hybrides commerciaux très sensibles (CSH 1, CSH 5, CSH 9). Les différences ont été confirmées avec des choix binaires au laboratoire. L'absence de préférence pour un cultivar est une des composantes de la résistance du sorgho à la punaise. Mais l'absence de préférence n'est cependant pas prouvée en cage au champ au par des expériences en olfactomètre sans choix au laboratoire. La ponte a été étudié sur 8 ‘génotypes’ pendant la saison des pluies de 1983 et sur 6 génotypes pendant la saison des pluies et après celle-ci en 1983–84. Les résultats montrent que la réduction de la ponte est une composante importante de la résistance sur IS 17645, IS 17610 et IS 17618. Pour définir le niveau d'antibiose, l'étude du cycle a été menée au laboratoire sur 5 cultivars relativement peu sensibles (IS 2761, IS 9692, IS 17610, IS 176618, IS 17645) et 3 sensibles (CSH 1, CSH 5, CSH 9). Le développement post-embryonnaire est prolongé d'un jour au deux quand les larves sont élevées sur grains laiteux de IS 17610 ou IS 17645. Les larves de 5e stade et les adultes ont des poids plus faibles sur IS 17610 et IS 9692. Les indices de consommation et d'utilisation des aliments ont été calculés pour IS 2761, IS 6984, CSH 5 et Swarna; l'utilisation de grains de IS 2761 et IS 69884, comparée aux grains des cultivars CSH 5 et Swarna, est relativement moins efficace. C1 et GR sont plus faibles sur grains d'IS 2761 de 20 jours que de 12 jours.
    Notes: Abstract Cultivar preference/nonpreference for feeding is one of the components of resistance to the sorghum head bug, Calocoris angustatus Lethiery (Hemiptera: Miridae). IS 2761, IS 9692, IS 17610, IS 17618 and IS 17645 were not preferred by the adults of c. angustatus under multi- or two-choice conditions. However, cultivar preference was not evident under no-choice tests or headcage conditions. Reduced oviposition is an important component of resistance to head bugs in IS 17645, IS 17610 and IS 17618. Post-embryonic development was extended by 1–2 days when nymphs were fed on these genotypes. Fifth instar nymphs and adults had lower weights when reared on IS 17610 and IS 9692. Nymphal survival was relatively lower on IS 9692, IS 17610 and IS 17645. Fourth instar nymphs were relatively less efficient in food utilization when fed on grain of IS 2761 and IS 6984 as compared with the susceptible cultivars CSH 5 and Swarna. Stage of grain development influenced the indices of consumption and utilization of food by head bugs. Consumption index (CI) and growth rate was lower on 20-day-old grain of IS 2761 as compared with 12-day-old grain.

    Notes: Summary The possibility that serotonin can take part in the initiation of the increased microvascular permeability occurring in a spinal cord trauma was investigated in a rat model with 131I-sodium and lanthanum as tracers. We influenced the serotonin content in the tissue pharmacologically by treating animals with a serotonin synthesis inhibitor, p-chlorophenylalanine (p-CPA), before the production of the injury and compared the results with injured, untreated controls. A small incision was made in the dorsal horn of the lower thoracic cord. It caused a progressive extravasation of 131I-sodium in the damaged segment, measured after 1,2 and 5 h. Rostral and caudal segments also showed a significant but lower accumulation of 131I-sodium. Lanthanum added to the fixative was used as an ionic tracer detectable by electron microscopy. The endothelial cells of microvessels removed from the perifocal region after 5 h showed a marked increase in the number of lanthanum-filled vesicles. Many endothelial cells had a diffuse penetration of the tracer into the cytoplasm and the basement membrane. However, the tight junctions usually remained closed to lanthanum. Pretreatment with p-CPA markedly reduced the extravasation of 131I-sodium measured at 5 h in the traumatized cord. At the cellular level, the endothelial vesicles filled with lanthanum approached the condition of uninjured animals. The diffuse infiltration of lanthanum into endothelial cells and its spread into the basement membrane of the vascular wall were usually absent. Our results indicate that serotonin plays a role in the initiation of the increased microvascular permeability which occurs in spinal cord injuries.
