    Notes: Abstract This paper summarizes the results from experiments during 12 years on effects of delayed inducible resistance of mountain birches (Betula pubescens Ehrh. ssp. tortuosa (Ledeb.) Nyman) on performance of a geometrid, Epirrita autumnata (Bkh.). Manual defoliation usually reduced significantly pupal mass of E. autumnata the next summer. The years interacted significantly with the defoliation treatment indicating variation among years in the responses of trees of larvae, or that the methodological differences between different experiments may have affected the results. Potential methodological sources for the annual variability were discussed and found unlikely. In addition, the efficacy of defoliation treatment in reducing the pupal mass was greatest when foliage quality in control trees was best, suggesting a contribution of biological causes to the annual variability.

    Notes: Abstract Preference for ethanol in rats, overcoming the problem of a position habit, was assessed in a one-lever and two-liquid chamber. Performance in lever pressing for ethanol of different concentrations (2.5%, 5.0%, and 15.0%) and for water, as well as the amount of liquid intake, were recorded. Evidence of ethanol preference was observed by both the lever press and consumption measures when the concentration was 2.5%. Water preference was evident at higher concentrations. The present method proved to be a useful method for studying ethanol preference in rats.
