    Notes: Lip chapping is a serious cosmetics problem, though remedies other than moisturization have not been proposed. We investigated changes in the surface configurations of lip corneocytes and activities of desquamation-regulating proteinases associated with lip chapping. Using scanning electron microscopy, villus-like projections were observed on the inner surfaces of most corneocytes from normal lips, whereas those with flatter surface were predominantly found in chapped lips. Furthermore, cell surface area increased with the severity of lip chapping. Cathepsin D-like and chymo-trypsin-like proteinase, which are also present in skin as desquamation-regulating proteinases, were detected in lip corneocytes, though only cathepsin D activity was found to decrease in severely chapped lips. Hydration was also lower in areas of lip chapping. Sequential topical application of apricot extract essence increased cathepsin D activity and improved chapping severity. Our results suggest that lip chapping can be characterized as similar to senile xerosis rather than dry skin such as winter xerosis, as it shows a delayed transition of corneocytes through the stratum corneum, and the reduced cathepsin D activity may be one of the mechanisms that is further decreased by low hydration. We propose that an enhancement of both cathepsin D activity and lip moisture may be effective to improve lip chapping.

    Development of Bruchid-Resistant Mungbean Line Using Wild Mungbean Germplasm in Thailand (1992)

    Notes: A mungbean (V. radiata) line (BC3F3 generation) which is resistant to two species of bruchid beetles (Callosobruchus chinensis and C. maculatus) was successfully developed in Thailand using a wild mungbean variety (V. radiata var. sublobata). One accession (TC1966) of wild mungbean was found to be completely resistant to C. chinensis and C. maculatus occurring at Chainat Field Crops Research Center in Thailand. The resistance was controlled by a single dominant gene (R). A breeding program to develop a bruchid-resistant mungbean cultivar with good agronomic characters under the environmental conditions of Thailand was initiated in 1987.‘Chainat 60’ (‘CN60’), a recommended mungbean cultivar in Thailand, was crossed with TC1966 to incorporate the resistance gene. Agronomic characters of the hybrids were improved by recurrent backcrossing using ‘CN60’ as a pollen parent. Seed yield per plant, days to flowering, and seed size of the bruchid-resistant BC3F2 population reached the level of ‘CN60’ after three consecutive backcrossings. Bruchid-resistant line (BC3F3, R/R) was selected from individual BC3F2 plants.

    Cross-Compatibility of Cultivated Adzuki Bean (Vigna angularis) and Rice Bean (V. umbellata) with Their Wild Relatives (1991)

    Notes: The wild Ceratotropis species which occur in Japan consist of Vigna angularis var. nipponensis, V. nakashimae, V. riukiuensis and V. reflexo-pilosa. The main aim of the present study is to detect cross-compatibility of adzuki bean and rice bean with these wild relatives.The cross of V. nakasbimae with adzuki bean was successful in both directions and viable seeds were produced, while the cross with rice bean was not successful. V. riukiuensis is cross-compatible with adzuki bean and rice bean only when V. riukiuensis is used as male parent and the hybrid seeds showed normal germination. The cross between V. reflexopilosa and the two cultigens adzuki bean and rice bean did not succeed in either direction.The present results suggest that V. nakashimae and V. riukiuensis could be used as gene sources for the adzuki bean breeding programme through interspecific hybridization. Successful hybrids between adzuki bean and rice bean cannot easily be produced. However, since V. riukiuensis is cross-compatible with both adzuki bean and rice bean, V. riukiuensis could be useful as a bridge species between adzuki bean and rice bean.

    Notes: Abstract A case of congestive heart failure in a neonate resulting from a congenital abdominal arteriovenous fistula is described; an aneurysm of the ductus arteriosus was also found in the patient. Abdominal aortography was performed and demonstrated dilated feeding arteries, including the hypogastric arteries, which communicated with a dilated umbilical vein. Ligation of the feeding arteries and the umbilical vein led to resolution of the heart failure. Transient liver dysfunction occurred, however. Symptoms improved dramatically upon removal of the ligature from the umbilical vein. Although there is one previous report of an arteriovenous fistula involving the umbilical vein, we know of no prior report of a congenital arteriovenous fistula in association with a ductus arteriosus aneurysm.

    Notes: Abstract. Primary cardiac sarcoma is a rare tumor, found especially in children, particularly in the left side of the heart. This report describes a rare case of primary mitral valve sarcoma in a 7-month-old male infant with hemiparesis and heart murmur who underwent mitral valve replacement because of excessive invasion of the mitral valve by the tumor. The patient remains well, free of recurrence and cerebral metastasis, and without adjuvant therapy 18 months after the operation.

    Center of genetic diversity and dissemination pathways in mung bean deduced from seed protein electrophoresis (1992)

    Notes: Summary Seed protein of 581 local strains of mung bean, Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek, collected from throughout Asia, were analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Eight protein types were recognized based on the combination of four albumin bands and three globulin bands. The frequency of each protein type strain showed a clear geographical cline. The pattern of geographical distribution of the protein types reflected the regions of genetic diversity, and two dissemination pathways in mung bean were proposed. The region of genetic diversity in seed protein was western Asia (Afghanistan-Iran-Iraq area). Mung bean may have spread mainly to the east by two routes from India, where the domestication of mung bean is believed to have occurred. One route led to Southeast Asia; strains consisting of a few protein types with prominent protein type 1 were disseminated from India to the Southeast Asian countreis. Thus, the strain composition in Southeast Asia was very simple, with the strains being similar to one another. Another dissemination pathway may have been the route known as the Silk Road. Since protein type 7 and 8 strains could not be found throughout Southeast Asia, it is assumed that these strains spread from western Asia or India to China and Taiwan via the Silk Road, and not by the route from Southeast Asia.

    Notes: Abstract Ten mungbean cultivars were evaluated for their resistance to iron deficiency in view of chlorosis symptoms, plant growth and seed yield under field conditions on a calcareous soil in Thailand. The KPS2 cultivar was highly susceptible; the KPS1, PSU1 and Pag-asa 1 cultivars were somewhat susceptible; the VC1163B cultivar was moderately tolerant; the CN36, CN60, UT1 and CNM-I cultivars were tolerant; and the CNM8509B cultivar was very tolerant to iron deficiency. Foliar application of a solution of 5 g L-1 ferrous sulphate was effective in correcting chlorosis that was induced by iron deficiency, and it enhanced both the growth and the yield of susceptible cultivars. Compared with the susceptible cultivar KPS2, the tolerant cultivar UT1 had a greater ability to lower the pH of the nutrient solution in response to iron deficiency. The root-associated Fe3+-reduction activity of UT1 that had been grown in -Fe medium was similar to that of the plants grown in +Fe medium when the acidification of the medium occurred. Acidification of the medium in response to iron deficiency might contribute to the efficient solubilization of iron from calcareous soils, and it related more closely to the resistance to iron deficiency than Fe3+ reduction by roots in mungbean cultivars.
