    Notes: A study was conducted to examine the hypothesis that the effects of external Al on NO3− uptake and assimilation depend upon the concentration of Al present. Young soybean seedlings [Glycine max (L.) Merrill, cv. Essex], growing under moderate acidity stress at pH 4-2, were exposed to a range of {A13+} in solution for 3d, and to labelled 99 atom %15NO3− during the final hour of Al exposure. Uptake of 15NO3−g−1 root dry weight was increased by about 28% in the presence of Al at {A13+} below 10 mmolm−3, and NO3− uptake was decreased by about 12% when the {A13+} increased to 44mmoln−3. The stimulation phase closely paralleled stimulation of root elongation. At higher {A13+}, the inhibition of root elongation was much more severe than that of NO3− uptake. There was no indication of a separate effect of Al on root 15NO3− reduction in situ, as the accumulation of reduced 15N in the root remained a similar percentage of 15NO3− uptake at all {A13+}. At higher {A13+}, the atom %15N enrichment of the insoluble reduced-N (protein) fraction of root tips increased. This suggests that the Al inhibition of root elongation did not result from disruption of the N supply to the root apex.

    Notes: Abstract Molecular markers provide the opportunity to identify marker-quantitative trait locus (QTL) associations in different environments and populations. Two soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] populations, ‘Young’ x PI 416 937 and PI 97100 x ‘Coker 237’, were evaluated with restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers to identify additional QTLs related to seed protein and oil. For the Young x PI 416937 population, 120 F4-derived lines were secored for segregation at 155 RFLP loci. The F4-derived lines and two parents were grown at Plains, G.a., and Windblow and Plymouth, N.C. in 1994, and evaluated for seed protein and oil. For the PI 97100 x Coker 237 population, 111 F2-derived lines were evaluated for segregation at 153 RFLP loci. Phenotypic data for seed protein and oil were obtained in two different locations (Athens, G.a., and Blackville, S.C.) in 1994. Based on single-factor analysis of variance (ANOVA) for the Young x PI 416937 population, five of seven independent markers associated with seed protein, and all four independent markers associated with seed oil in the combined analysis over locations were detected at all three locations. For the PI 97 100 x Coker 237 population, both single-factor ANOVA and interval mapping were used to detect QTLs. Using single-factor ANOVA, three of four independent markers for seed protein and two of three independent markers for seed oil were detected at both locations. In both populations, singlefactor ANOVA, revealed the consistency of QTLs across locations, which might be due to the high heritability and the relatively few QTLs with large effects conditioning these traits. However, interval mapping of the PI 97100 x Coker 237 population indicated that QTLs identified at Athens for seed protein and oil were different from those at Blackville. This might result from the power of QTL mapping being dependent on the level of saturation of the genetic map. Increased seed protein was associated with decreased seed oil in the PI 97100 x Coker 237 population (r = −0.61). There were various common markers (P⩽0.05) on linkage groups (LG) E, G,H,K, and UNK2 identified for both seed protein and oil. One QTL on LG E was associated with seed protein in both populations. The other QTLs for protein and oil were population specific.

    Notes: Abstract Seed weight (SW) is a component of soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr., seed yield, as well as an important trait for food-type soybeans. Two soybean populations, 120 F4-derived lines of ‘Young’xPI416937 (Pop1) and 111 F2-derived lines of PI97100x‘Coker 237’ (Pop2), were mapped with RFLP makers to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) conditioning SW across environments and populations. The genetic map of Pop1 consisted of 155 loci covering 973 cM, whereas Pop2 involved 153 loci and covered 1600 cM of map distance. For Pop1, the phenotypic data were collected from Plains, GA., Windblow, N.C., and Plymouth, N.C., in 1994. For Pop2, data were collected from Athens, GA., in 1994 and 1995, and Blackville, S.C., in 1995. Based on single-factor analysis of variance (ANOVA), seven and nine independent loci were associated with SW in Pop1 and Pop2, respectively. Together the loci explained 73% of the variability in SW in Pop1 and 74% in Pop2. Transgressive segregation occurred among the progeny in both populations. The marker loci associated with SW were highly consistent across environments and years. Two QTLs on linkage group (LG) F and K were located at similar genomic regions in both populations. The high consistency of QTLs across environments indicates that effective marker-assisted selection is feasible for soybean SW.

    Effects of defoliation on seed protein concentration in normal and high protein lines of soybean (1995)

    Notes: Abstract Two high (NC106, NC111) and two normal (NC103, NC107) seed protein concentration lines, derived from two different recurrent selection populations of soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) were subjected to partial defoliation at beginning seed fill (R5) under outdoor pot culture and field conditions. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that capacity to store N in vegetative organs and/or to mobilize that N to reproductive organs is associated with the high seed protein concentration trait. Symbiotic N2 fixation was the sole source of N in the pot experiment and the major source of N (met 〉 50% of the N requirement) in the low N soil used in the field experiment. Seed protein concentration and seed yield at maturity in both experiments and N accumulation and mobilization between R5 and maturity in the pot experiment were measured. The four genotypes did not differ significantly with respect to the amount of N accumulated before beginning seed fill (R5). Removal of up to two leaflets per trifoliolate leaf at R5 significantly decreased the seed protein concentration of NC107/111 but had no effect on this trait in NC103/106. Defoliation treatments significantly decreased seed yield, whole plant N accumulation (N2-fixation) during reproductive growth and vegetative N mobilization of all genotypes. Differences in harvest indices between the high and low protein lines accounted for approximately 35% of the differences in protein concentration. The two normal protein lines mobilized more vegetative N to the seed (average. 5.26 g plant−1) than the two high protein lines (average. 4.28 g plant−1). The two high seed protein lines (NC106, NC111) exhibited significantly different relative dependencies of reproductive N accumulation on vegetative N mobilization, 45% vs. 29%, in the control treatment. Whereas, NC103 with normal and NC106 with high seed protein concentration exhibited similar relative dependencies of reproductive N accumulation on vegetative N mobilization, (47% vs. 45%). Collectively, these results indicate that N stored in shoot organs before R5 and greater absolute and relative contribution of vegetative N mobilization to the reproductive N requirement are not responsible for the high seed protein concentration trait.

    Notes: Abstract Toxic levels of extractable soil Al limit production of important crops in many areas of the world. The nature of the limitation in soybeans is not completely understood. Our objectives were to investigate the cause of acid-soil-induced delays in seedling emergence, the effect of acidity on productivity in non-nodulated soybeans and further test the Al tolerance of PI 416,937 compared to a sensitive control, Essex. Growth characteristics of the two genotypes through the flowering stage were measured on a Corozal clay (Aquic Tropudult) in Puerto Rico which had been differentially limed to provide a wide range of soil Al. Early growth was also studied in the laboratory using soil from the field experiment. Highly acidic soil conditions, coupled with high Al levels, reduced growth in both Essex and PI 416,937. The principal factor responsible for delayed emergence in the high Al soil was not delayed radicle initiation, but delayed initiation of hypocotyl elongation. Hypocotyl initiation was highly associated with rate of tap root growth, with the former possibly determined by the latter, because a minimum tap root length of 60 mm was required in both high and low Al soils before hypocotyl initiation commenced. In seedlings, the high acidity reduced root more than shoot growth. By 44 days after planting (DAP), however, soil acidity had reduced shoot growth greatly. Although the soybean plants were not nodulated, foliar N levels and shoot growth were decreased by high Al levels, indicating that interference with N fixation may not be the sole mechanism by which nitrogen accumulation and plant growth is reduced in the field.

    Singular fuel-optimal space trajectories based on linearization about a point in circular orbit (1987)

    Notes: Abstract Singular solutions of a linearized problem of determining fuel-optimal trajectories of a spacecraft with bounded thrust near a satellite in circular orbit are investigated in detail. Mathematical results are presented which classify and discuss degeneracy of the singular solutions and which show that strictly singular and nonsingular solutions are mutually exclusive for fixed-end conditions. These results are consistent with those found using other approaches for other linear models, but they are not characteristic of the type of results obtained without linearization.

    Notes: Abstract The solution of the problem of impulsive minimization of a weighted sum of characteristic velocities of a spacecraft subject to linear equations of motion is presented without the use of calculus of variations or optimal control theory. The geometric structure of the set of boundary points associated with an optimal primer vector is found to be a simplex composed of convex conical sets. Eachk-dimensional open face of the simplex consists of boundary points having nondegeneratek-impulse solutions. This geometric structure leads to a simple proof that at mostn-impulses are required to solve a problem inn-dimensional space. This work is applied to the problem of planar rendezvous of a spacecraft with a satellite in Keplerian orbit using the Tschauner-Hempel equations of motion, with special emphasis on four-impulse solutions. Primer vectors representing four-impulse solutions are sought out and found for elliptical orbits, but none were found for orbits of higher eccentricity. For highly eccentric elliptical orbits, degenerate fiveimpulse solutions were found. In this situation, computer simulations reveal vastly different optimal trajectories having identical boundary conditions and cost.

    Notes: Abstract The solution of the fixed-time optimal power-limited rendezvous with a general linear system of ordinary differential equations and a bound on the magnitude of the applied thrust is presented. Necessary and sufficient conditions for thrust saturation in an optimal solution are included. Because of the generality of the linear system of equations of motion, controllability considerations are required for a complete solution of this problem. It is shown that the condition of controllability can be defined completely in terms of a class of primer vectors associated with this problem. Moreover, it is shown that two distinct versions of the primer vector appear in this problem. Therefore, there is not a unique primer vector associated with every rendezvous problem. The work is applied to the problem of the rendezvous of a spacecraft near a satellite in circular orbit. The optimal rendezvous trajectory is determined by the interaction of a primer vector and the bound on the thrust magnitude. The results of computer simulations are presented graphically.

    Notes: Abstract Necessary and sufficient conditions for solution of the general minimum-fuel linear bounded-thrust spacecraft trajectory problem are presented in terms of fundamental matrix solutions and their inverses. This work is rigorous, generalizes and unifies many known results for specific problems, and also presents a new necessary condition. Finally, an application is presented for a spacecraft rendezvous near a general Keplerian orbit in which the linearized equations of motion are nonautonomous. A fundamental matrix solution is found and inverted, solving this class of problems.

    Notes: Abstract The problem of minimizing the total characteristic velocity of a spacecraft having linear equations of motion and finitely many instantaneous impulses that result in jump discontinuities in velocity is considered. Fixed time and fixed end conditions are assumed. This formulation is flexible enough to allow some of the impulses to be specifieda priori by the mission planner. Necessary and sufficient conditions for solution of this problem are found without using specialized results from control theory or optimization theory. Solution of the two-point boundary-value problem is reduced to a problem of solving a specific set of equations. If the times of the impulses are specified, these equations are at most quadratic. Although this work is restricted to linear equations, there are situations where it has potential application. Some examples are the computation of the velocity increments of a spacecraft near a real or fictitious satellite or space station in a circular or more general Keplerian orbit. Another example is the computation of maneuvers of a spacecraft near a libration point in the restricted three-body problem.
