    Notes: Abstract Thermus sp. Rt41A produced a single extracellular proteinase, as determined by fast protein liquid chromatography and isoelectric focusing. Proteinase activity was expressed from very early in the log phase, and halted when the growth substrate was exhausted. There was no continued proteinase production in the stationary phase. Proteinase production was not stimulated by O2 limitation, not repressed by amino acid growth substrates, and its production could not be correlated to the type or oxidation state of the carbon and energy source or the growth rate on different carbon and energy sources. Growth on certain substrates, e.g. glutamate and glucose, resulted in production of high levels of proteinase, whereas others, such as acetate, resulted in low proteinase levels. Acetate repressed proteinase production in cultures growing on L-glutamate. In continuous culture on L-glutamate, acetate or pyruvate, proteinase production was highest at higher growth (dilution) rates. The kinetics of proteinase production in continuous culture on L-glutamate can be interpreted as evidence for the constitutive nature of proteinase expression by Thermus sp. Rt41A. The data obtained show that the control of proteinase production is different to that postulated for Thermus sp. Ok6.A1.

    Notes: Abstract      Strain T2–7, a 5-aminovalerate-fermenting bacterium previously classified as Clostridium aminovalericum, was further characterized, both physiologically and phylogenetically. Comparative sequencing analysis of the almost complete 16S rDNA revealed that strain T2–7 forms a distinct lineage within a phylogenetically coherent cluster of gram-positive bacteria currently assigned to the genus Clostridium. Strain T2–7 grew with 5-aminovalerate, 5-hydroxyvalerate, 4-hydroxybutyrate, vinylacetate, and crotonate, and required yeast extract and l-cysteine for growth. Other substrates were not utilized. The fermentation products, depending on the growth substrate, were ammonia, acetate, propionate, butyrate, and valerate. Sulphur was reduced by a mechanism not linked to energy conservation. Other acceptors were not utilized. Cells were gram-positive pointed-ended ovals, motile by means of two subpolar flagella, and possessed a gram-positive cell wall structure with an S-layer of hexagonally arranged subunits of 18.5 nm diameter. The DNA mol% G+C was 41.5. Strain T2–7 (DSM 6836) is proposed as the type strain of a new species, Clostridium viride sp. nov.

    Notes: Abstract A Regional Soil Acidification Model (RESAM) has been developed to gain insight in long-term impacts of deposition scenarios on forest soils in The Netherlands. Model predictions of such large-scale environmental effects of acid deposition require extrapolation of site specific data to large geographical regions. The major aim of this study is to quantify the uncertainty in model response to a given deposition scenario, due to uncertainty and spatial variability in data. Furthermore, the uncertainty analysis was performed to determine which additional data will most likely improve the reliability of predictions. An efficient Monte Carlo technique was used in combination with regression analysis. The analysis was restricted to one forest soil ecosystem: a leptic podzol with Douglas fir, subject to a reducing deposition scenario. The investigated output variables were pH, Al/Ca ratio and NH4/K ratio in the root zone, which are generally used as indicators of forest soil acidification and of potential forest damage. Statistical analyses showed that in most cases the relation between the parameters and model output can be satisfactorily described by a linear regression model. The uncertainty contribution of various parameters depends on the considered output variable, soil compartment and time. The uncertainty, as measured by the coefficient of variation, appears to be high for the NH4/K and Al/Ca ratios, whereas it was relatively low for the pH. Results show that the uncertainty in the depositions of SOx, NOx, and NHx in a receptor area and the uncertainty in the parameters and variables determining the nitrogen and aluminium dynamics contribute most to the resulting uncertainty of the considered model output.
