    Notes: Abstract Each of 20 methyl-branched and 1,5-dimethyl-branched alkanes that comprise the active principle of saturated hydrocarbons of the female stable fly,Stomoxys calcitrans (L.), was synthesized and evaluated for mating stimulant activity. The compounds that showed the highest degree of activity in bioassays were 15-methyl- and 15,19-dimethyltritriacontanes.

    Notes: Abstract The major component of the cuticular lipids of male stable flies,Stomoxys calcitrans (L.), was identified as (Z,Z)-1,7,13-pentacosatriene. The identification was confirmed by synthesis. This material is of unknown biological function; it is apparently not produced by female stable flies.

    Notes: Abstract Cuticular rinses of the female stable fly,Stomoxys calcitrans (L.), contained saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons that incited the male fly to attempt couplation. These compounds present in GLC trappings of the saturated hydrocarbon fraction showing highest biological activity were mono- and dimethyl-substituted hentria- and tritriacontanes. Active trappings from the unsaturated hydrocarbon fraction contained (Z)-9-hentriacontene, (Z)-9-tritriacontene, and methyl-branched hentria- and tritriacontenes.

    Notes: This paper presents a finite difference method for two-point boundary value problems described by fourth-order ordinary differential equations which results in consistency of truncation errors. It is demonstrated that the order of the formulae used to approximate the boundary conditions must be higher than those used for similar derivative terms in the differential equation. A generalization of the method to differential equations of order n is discussed. The procedure is illustrated with a numerical example.

    Notes: A simplified technique for the dynamic analysis of geometrically nonlinear plate structures is developed. The essence of this technique is the construction of a linear substitute of the nonlinear problem. The linear substitute problem is derived from an equivalence criterion which involves balancing the energies of the linear substitute model and the nonlinear model over one period of oscillation. The linearized equations are discretized by a finite element method, and solutions at different amplitudes are obtained numerically by an incremental-iterative scheme. To verify the equivalent energy linearization approach, example problems consisting of the free and forced vibration of nonlinear circular plates with various boundary conditions are studied. All results are compared to theoretical and numerical solutions in the literature. In addition, the forced vibration results are compared to available experimental results. These comparisons tend to validate the assumptions made in the equivalent energy linearization procedure. The proposed method is found to be computationally more efficient than other available procedures.

    Notes: This article presents the derivation of a very straightforward approximate procedure for the analysis of a continuous flexible member. Since very large deformations are anticipated, a shooting method is utilized along with Newton-type iteration for improved estimates. The resulting computer program is used to compare with exact solutions for a new examples.

    Notes: Bacteroids having a high level of respiration-supported nitrogenase activity were isolated from nitrogen-fixing alfalfa root nodules. Gentle maceration under anaerobic conditions in the presence of sodium succinate and a fatty acid scavenging agent were employed in this method.A large proportion of isolated bacteroids retained a triple membrane structure as shown by transmission electron microscopy. Dicarboxylic acids of the TCA cycle (malate, fumarate, succinate), but not glutamate or aspartate, supported sufficient respiratory activity to supply the nitrogenase system with ATP and reducing equivalents and to protect the nitrogenase system from inactivation by 4% oxygen over a period of 20-30 min. Sugars did not support nitrogenase activity in intact bacteroids. The properties of the isolated bacteroids were ascribed to minimal damage to the cytoplasmic membrane and peribacteroidal membrane during isolation.With succinate as substrate and oxygen as terminal electron acceptor, initial nitrogenase activity was determined at 4% oxygen in the gas phase of the assay system employed. At this oxygen concentration, the sustained rate of acetylene reduction by respiring bacteroids was linear up to 30 min. Bacteroid activity declined rapidly with time of exposure to oxygen above 4% in the gas phase. The optimum temperature range for this activity was 10-20°C. Nitrogenase activity was measurable at incubation tempertures below 10°C under 4% oxygen. Functionally intact bacteroids had little nitrogenase activity under anaerobic conditions in the presence of an external source of ATP and reductant. Treatment of the bacteroids with chlorpromazine eliminated respirtation-supported activity and rendered the bacteroid cell membrane permeable to external ATP. Bacteroids treated with chlorpromazine had high acetylene reducing activity with external ATP and dithionite in the absence of oxygen.

    Notes: The ovary of the salp Pegea socia (Bosc, 1802) is located at the end of an atrial diverticulum. The ovary consists of a single oocyte encased in a layer of follicle cells and is connected to the atrial epithelium by an oviduct. Transmission electron microscopy shows that the oocyte lacks a vitelline layer, cortical granules, and yolk granules and that the oviduct lacks a continuous lumen. What previous authors thought was a lumen is a line of dense intercellular junctions running down the center of the oviduct. The sperm nucleus in this species, as in other salps, is elongate. The tubular mitochondrion spirals about the sperm nucleus giving it a corkscrew-shape appearance. Sperm reach the ovary when the oocyte is still at the germinal vesicle stage. Many sperm swim up the atrial diverticulum and burrow through the cells of the atrial epithelium, oviduct, and follicular epithelium. Thus oviduct shortening, which occurs when the oocyte is in the meiotic divisions, is evidently unrelated to sperm moving up the oviduct. All previous authors, who argued either that a continuous lumen is necessary for sperm to move up the oviduct or that sperm bypass the oviduct, were incorrect. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
