    Notes: Abstract An in vitro growth system was used to determine the virulence of two samples of Striga gesnerioides from Zakpota in southern Benin. Cowpea variety B301, previously considered resistant to all races of S. gesnerioides, was susceptible to both samples of the parasite. Two other cowpea varieties, 58–57 and IT81D-994, were totally resistant. Resistance in 58–57 was associated with a hypersensitive necrosis of infected roots, whilst IT81D-994 supported production of small S. gesnerioides tubercles with stems which failed to develop. Striga gesnerioides from southern Benin is the fourth race of the parasite to be identified, and the first with virulence on variety B301. The implications for breeding cowpeas with resistance to S. gesnerioides are discussed.

    Notes: Summary Nine cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) breeding lines were grown in 13 experiments under sole crop and intercrop management, with and without insecticide application, in Nigeria. Cowpea was intercropped with cassava (Manihot esculenta Cranz), maize (Zea mays L.) and maize-cassava in the forest zone and with sorghum (Sorghum bicolor Moench.) and millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.) in the savanna zone. Line by cropping system interactions were significant in 5 of 13 experiments and line by insecticide treatment interactions were significant in 2 of 13 experiments. Cowpea yield was severely depressed in intercropped plots and in plots to which no insecticide was applied. Among-environment variation in cowpea yield was greater when no insecticide was applied. Within each management treatment, the yield performance and stability of the cowpea lines was examined. Stability was assessed both by examining among-environment coefficients of variation and by regression analysis. Several of the breeding lines evaluated appeared promising under different levels of management and in a diversity of environments.

    Notes: A study of the influence of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) on the graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) onto jute fiber using ceric ion has been made. The effect of concentrations of monomer, Ce(IV) and DMSO on graft yield have been studied. Besides, the effect of time, temperature, acid, and the amount of jute fiber on graft yield has been investigated. On the basis of experimental findings, a reaction mechanism has been proposed and optimum condition for effective grafting has been suggested.

    Notes: The effects of toluene on the kinetics of polymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) initiated by the Ce(IV)/sucrose redox system were studied in the presence of an emulsifier, N-cetyl-trimethylammonium bromide (NCTAB) in the temperature range 35-45°C. The effects of concentration of metal ion, monomer, sulfuric acid, substrate (sucrose), emulsifier, toluene, some inorganic salt, and organic solvent on Rp have also been investigated. The remarkable features of the investigation involve the derivation of the rate expression for the above system with the calculation of activation energy. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The influence of N-acetylglycine on the kinetics of graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) onto chemically modified jute fibers was studied in the temperature range 40-60°C. The optimum conditions for grafting have been determined by studying the effects of concentrations of monomers, Ce(IV), and N-acetylglycine on the rate of grafting. Besides the effect of time, temperature, and concentration of the acid, the amount of jute fibers and some organic solvents and inorganic salts on the rate of grafting has been investigated. On the basis of experimental findings, a kinetic scheme has been proposed. Infrared spectra of chemically modified jute and grafted jute have been investigated. More than 185% graft yield could be achieved with the present system. Grafting has improved the thermal stability of jute fibers. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A study of the influence of glycine on the graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) onto jute fiber using ceric ion has been made. The effect of concentrations of monomer, Ce (IV), and glycine on graft yield have been studied. In addition, the effect of time, temperature, acid, and the amount of jute fiber on graft yield has been investigated. On the basis of experimental findings, a qualitative reaction mechanism has been proposed and the optimum condition for effective grafting has been suggested.

    Notes: The micellar effect on the kinetics of ceric ion-initiated polymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) in the presence of N-acetylglycine has been studied in the temperature range 30-50°C. The neutral emulsifier (Triton X-100) has no effect on the Rp, whereas both anionic (NaLS) and cationic (NCTAB) emulsifiers accelerate the rate of polymerization appreciably. Comparison of the effect of different organic substrates on the rate of polymerization has been made. Various effects such as the concentration of metal ion, surfactant, monomer, sulfuric acid, organic solvents, and inorganic salts on Rp have also been investigated. The most remarkable feature of the investigation involves the enhancement of Rp in the presence of micelles. A suitable mechanism for the derivation of the rate expression for the above system is proposed along with the calculation of activation energy and prediction of optimum conditions. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
