    Notes: Abstract The Doi-Edwards model with segmental stretch and a non-linear finitely extensible spring law is described and examined in simple flow situations where analytic results are derivable; namely oscillatory flow and steady state flow at high deformation rates. The model is shown to be consistent with the Bueche-Ferry hypothesis in fast large strain unidirectional flows but to violate this rule in small strain reversing flows. The discrepancy is identified with a preaveraging approximation used to describe the relative tube-chain velocity. Experimentally verifiable scaling rule for the birefringence as a universal function of a planar flow-type parameter and deformation rate are identified. Sensitivity to the extensional flow character, absent in the original tube model, manifests itself with the introduction of segmental stretch. Although the model generates a non-separable memory function kernel the deformation dependence of the memory function is quantitatively shown to have negligible impact on the predicted theological properties relative to the original Doi-Edwards model. With this simplification, relatively uncomplicated approximations to the segmental stretch model can be deduced.

    Notes: Abstract In this study we determined soil moisture storage, evapotranspiration (ET) and light interception in an agroforestry trial consisting of pine trees grown over (1) control (bare ground), (2) ryegrass/clovers (Lolium perene/Trifolium spp.), (3) lucerne (Medicago sativa), and (4) ryegrass only during the third growing season between 1992 and 1993. The results show that: 1. In the period when rainfall was frequent and exceeded the evaporative demand (Epot), ET and depletion of soil moisture were not affected by the ground cover treatments. During summer when rainfall was less frequent, but with moisture readily available in the soil profile, ET was associated with plant canopy, and was significantly higher for the pasture ground covers than for the control. Therefore, the more rapid growth by lucerne caused higher ET in this ground cover than in the ryegrass/clovers ground cover in which the pasture was slow growing. At the end of the study period, total ET was in the following order: lucerne (757 mm) 〉 ryegrass/clovers (729 mm) 〉 Control (618 mm). 2. ET was dominated by pasture transpiration (Ep) during most of the growing season, but by tree transpiration (Et) in winter when large parts of the pasture canopy was shaded. Ep was always at least 16% higher for lucerne than for ryegrass/clovers species as a result of a greater radiation intercepted by the former. 3. Fraction of incoming radiation intercepted by the tree crowns was in the following order: control 〉 ryegrass 〉 ryegrass/clovers 〉 lucerne. At the end of the one-year period, fraction of intercepted radiation was 140% greater for control than for lucerne ground cover. 4. The control produced the largest tree crowns, which were almost twice the tree crowns in the lucerne ground cover which produced the smallest trees. Accordingly, the trees in the control intercepted more radiation and rainfall, with the former being lost to evaporation, than the trees in the pasture. 5. The fractions of radiation intercepted and ET accounted for by the trees and pastures were associated with the proportion of the plot area they occupied.

    Increase in copy number of an integrated vector during continuous culture of Hansenula polymorpha expressing functional human haemoglobin (1994)

    Notes: Recombinant human haemoglobin A (rHbA) was produced by a leucine-requiring strain of Hansenula polymorpha which had been transformed with an integration vector containing the Saccharomyces cerevisiae LEU2 gene and cDNAs for the expression of α and β globin each driven by the H. polymorpha MOX promoter. After 40 generations in a chemostat it was found that the integrated vector had become amplified in the host strain. In some cases this led to an increase in LEU2 gene dosage, but a loss of globin expression cassettes. In other cases the globin gene dosage also increased. These changes coincided with an increase in rHbA production in the culture, which was reversed when the dilution rate was increased. Isolates from a chemostat culture producing elevated levels of rHbA were grown in fed-batch fermentations, resulting in higher productivities than when inoculated with the parent strain. The rHbA produced was purified and characterized. Oxygen binding studies and electrospray mass spectrometry showed that the rHbA had been processed and assembled correctly, and behaved as a fully functional co-operative tetramer.
