    Notes: Rhizomania, one of the most important diseases of sugar beet, is caused by beet necrotic yellow vein virus, a Furovirus vectored by the fungus Polymyxa betae Keskin. Reduction of the production losses caused by this disease can only be achieved by using tolerant cultivars. The objective of this study was the identification and mapping of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers linked to a rhizomania resistance gene. The RAPD markers were identified using bulked segregant analysis in a segregating population of 62 individuals derived by intercrossing plants of the resistant commercial hybrid GOLF, and the resistance locus was positioned in a molecular marker linkage map made with a different population of 50 GOLF plants.The resistance locus, Rr1, was mapped to linkage group III of our map of Beta vulgaris L. ssp. vulgaris, which consisted of 76 RAPDs, 20 restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs), three sequence characterized amplified regions (SCARs) and one sequence tagged site (STS). In total, 101 molecular markers were mapped over 14 linkage groups which spanned 688.4 cM with an average interval length of 8.0 cM. In the combined map, Rr1 proved to be flanked by the RAPD loci RA4111800 and AS71100 at 9.5 and 18.5cM, respectively. Moreover, in our I2 population, we found that a set of markers shown by Barzen et al. (1997) to be linked to the ‘Holly’ type resistance gene was also linked to the ‘GOLF’-type resistance gene. These results appeared to indicate that the rhizomania resistance gene present in the GOLF hybrid could be the same gene underlying resistance in ‘Holly’-based resistant genotypes. Two other explanations could be applied: first, that two different alleles at the same locus could have been selected; second, that two different genes at two different but clustered loci underwent the selection process.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An Ratten wurde eihe linksventrikuläre Hypertrophie von ca. 40% durch Einengung einer Nierenarterie (Goldblatt II) und von ca. 6% durch ein Schwimmtraining (während 14 Wochen täglich 2 Stunden) erzeugt. Die Dynamik des hypertrophierten Ventrikels wurde anhand der isovolumetrischen systolischen und diastolischen Druck-Volumen-Beziehungen, der Spannungsentwicklung bei auxotonischer und isovolumetrischer Herztätigkeit sowie anhand der Kraft-Geschwindigkeit-Beziehung untersucht. Folgende Ergebnisse wurden erhoben: Die Arbeitskapazität des hypertrophierten Gesamtventrikels ist gesteigert. Die isovolumetrische Spannungsentwicklung und die Geschwindigkeit der Spannungsentwicklung nehmen zu, wahrscheinlich infolge der erhöhten Dichte der kontraktilen Strukturen. Die maximale Verkürzungsgeschwindigkeit kann bereits in diesem Stadium der Hypertrophie vermindert sein.
    Notes: Summary Left ventricular hypertrophy of about 40% was produced in rats by narrowing one renal artery (Goldblatt II) and of about 6% by swimming-training for 2 hours a day for 14 weeks. The dynamics of the hypertrophied ventricles were investigated by means of the isovolumic systolic and diastolic pressure-volume relations, the stress development during afterloaded and isovolumic contractions, and the force-velocity relation. The following results were obtained: The performance of the whole hypertrophied ventricle is increased. The developed stress and the maximum rate of stress development are enhanced, probably as a consequence of the increased density of the contractile proteins. The maximum shortening velocity can be reduced at the same time.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Bei Goldblattratten wurden elektronenmikroskopische Untersuchungen über morphologische Veränderungen des Herzgewebes durchgeführt, die während des kompensierten Stadiums der druckinduzierten Herzhypertrophie auftreten. Die Größe der Herzzellen nahm während der ersten 4 Wochen nach Nierenarterienstenosierung erheblich zu. Besonders auffallend ist eine Zunahme des T-tubulus-Systems innerhalb der Zellen. Das Verhältnis vom Myofibrillenvolumen zum gesamten Zellvolumen ist während des Beobachtungszeitraums (von der 4. bis zur 24. Woche) signifikant erhöht, wodurch wenigstens teilweise eine Steigerung der entwickelten Spannung erklärt wird, die in diesem Stadium, trotz häufig beobachteter Störung der Myofibrillenanordnung, in Erscheinung tritt. In späteren Stadien kommt es zu schweren Veränderungen an den Gefäßwänden und zu einer Zunahme des Bindegewebsgehalts, wodurch eine Korrelation zwischen myokardialen Zellveränderungen und mechanischen Parametern erschwert wird.
    Notes: Summary In Goldblatt rats, electron microscopic investigations of morphological changes in heart tissue during the compensatory stage of pressure induced cardiac hypertrophy were performed. Myocardial cellular size enlarged considerably within the first 4 weeks after renal artery coarctation. An enlargement of the T-tubular system is particularly striking. The ratio of myofibril volume to total cell volume is significantly increased from the 4th–24th week and can at least partially explain a rise in developed tension which occurs in spite of a frequent disarrangement of myofibrils. In later stages severe changes in the vessel walls take place and there is an augmentation of connective tissue which impairs a correlation between myocardial cell alterations and mechanical parameters.

    Notes: Summary Myocardial sarcoplasmic reticulum of cats in situ and fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum (FSR) were analysed using X-ray microanalysis, cryoultramicrotomy and scanning transmission electron microscopy. 2 types of FSR vesicles can be distinguished morphologically and by their different elemental composition especially by different Ca loading. The Ca content of the sarcoplasmic reticulum can also be detected in situ.

    Notes: Summary In young male Wistar rats, an increase in systolic blood pressure to above 200 mm Hg was induced by constricting one renal artery (Goldblatt II). This led to cardiac hypertrophy with an increase in left ventricular weight of about 40% after 4 weeks as compared with controls of the same age. Four and 8 weeks after the operation, the systolic and enddiastolic pressure-volume relations of the left ventricle were determined under isovolumetric conditions in open-chest Goldblatt rats and in control animals of the same age. The systolic and diastolic wall stress and the tangential elastic modulus were calculated, assuming a thick-walled sphere. The diastolic pressure-volume curves were shifted to greater volumes after 4 weeks, apparently due to a temporary augmentation of blood volume. However, no significant difference between the diastolic pressure-volume curves of Goldblatt and control ventricles was found after 8 weeks. The isovolumetrically developed pressure was found to be increased in both stages of Goldblatt hypertension at the optimum of the pressure-volume diagram (maximum distance between end-diastolic and systolic pressure-volume curves). The diastolic wall stress rose only after 4 weeks in the hypertrophied ventricles due to the additional volume load. For a given diastolic wall stress, the elastic modulus tended to higher values in the Goldblatt hearts. Sarcomere length was measured after 8 weeks at the same end-diastolic transmural pressure at which the heart works in the closed chest. There was no significant difference between sarcomere length in the left ventricles of Goldblatt rats (1.99±0.03 μm) and control animals $${\text{[1}}{\text{.97 }} \pm {\text{0}}{\text{.01}} \mu m(\bar x \pm s_{\bar x} ){\text{]}}$$ . The peak systolic wall stress, calculated from after loaded contractions, was not enhanced. However, the developed isovolumetric stress and the rate of stress development showed a significant increase in Goldblatt rats. These results indicate that the work capacity of the hypertrophied ventricle as a whole is enhanced. This enhancement of the contractile force per unit of cross-sectional area and its first derivative does not, however, allow the conclusion that there is an improvement in the elementary contractile process as the maximum myocardial shortening velocity at zero load (V max) is decreased whilst the content of contractile proteins is augmented.

    Notes: Summary From a callus culture which was started from explants of a single plant of Crepis capillaris, a line was isolated which could grow on auxin- and kinetin-free medium (in contrast to the other lines of the culture). The calluses of this habituated line grew on hormone-free medium as “teratomas”. Regenerated plants were obtained from the habituated line and from other lines of the culture as control. In the secondary callus cultures which originated from these plants, the subcultures belonging to the initially transformed line no longer had the ability to grow on hormone-free medium. Since this line was also a chromosome mutant and the same mutation was present in its regenerated plants and in the secondary culture line of them, the loss of the auxin-autotrophy cannot be explained in this case on the basis of a selection of cells with karyotypes different from those of the primary culture.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Auf der Grundlage mechanischer, biochemischer und morphologischer Untersuchungen, die im gleichen Stadium einer experimentellen Herzhypertrophie durchgeführt wurden, wird versucht, die anteilmäßige Bedeutung einzelner Faktoren für die Änderungen des Kontraktionsablaufs abzugrenzen. Am Beispiel schwimmtrainierter Ratten wird zunächst gezeigt, daß nicht jeder Hypertrophieprozeß zwangsläufig mit einer Beeinträchtigung der Myokardfunktion auf zellulärer Ebene verbunden ist. Aber auch die Minderung der lastfreien Verkürzungsgeschwindigkeit und ATPase-Aktivität bei druckbedingter Hypertrophie (Goldblatt-Ratten, artifizielle Aortenstenose) ist, wenigstens in frühen Stadien, eher Ausdruck einer Anpassung an veränderte Belastungsbedingungen. Obwohl sichere Hinweise für Veränderungen im Bereich der elektromechanischen Kopplung vorliegen, scheinen diese, speziell beim Goldblatt-Modell, nicht die Hauptursache für die veränderte Mechanik zu sein. Die Korrelation zwischen lastfreier Verkürzungsgeschwindigkeit und spezifischer ATPase-Aktivität sowie die Persistenz einer verminderten lastfreien Verkürzungsgeschwindigkeit auch unter optimalen elektromechanischen Kopplungsbedingungen weisen auf eine innere Beziehung zwischen beiden Größen hin. Diskrepanzen zwischen lastfreier Verkürzungsgeschwindigkeit und entwickelter Spannung sind vorwiegend auf einen erhöhten Gehalt an kontraktilen Strukturen zu beziehen. In späteren Stadien beeinflußt ein erhöhter Bindegewebsgehalt sowohl die isometrischen als auch die isotonischen Meßwerte.
    Notes: Summary Based on mechanical, biochemical and electron microscopic studies performed in the same stage of experimental cardiac hypertrophy, an attempt is made to define the significance of individual factors responsible for the alterations in myocardial function. Using swimming rats, it is demonstrated that a load-induced increase in cardiac mass is not necessarily connected with an impairment of contractile capability on a cellular level. Yet, also, the reduction of specific ATPase activity and unloaded shortening velocity in pressure-induced hypertrophy (Goldblatt rats; aortic stenosis) seems to be the expression of adaptation rather than of cellular damage, at least in the earlier stages. Although there are distinct indications of alterations in Ca-dependent activation and deactivation, in the Goldblatt model electromechanical coupling does not seem to be the main cause of altered contraction parameters. The correlation between specific ATPase activity of actomyosin and unloaded shortening velocity as well as the persistance of decrease in shortening velocity, also under optimal electromechanical coupling conditions, point to an inner relationship between the two values. A discrepancy between unloaded shortening velocity on the one hand and developed tension on the other is mainly due to an increased content of contractile structures. In later stages, an increased connective tissue content influences both isometric and isotonic parameters.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Ultradünne Kryoschnitte von chemisch unbehandeltem, schnell gefrorenem Myokardgewebe in Koffein-Kontraktur wurden verglichen mit Kontrollpräparaten mit der Methode der Röntgenmikroanalyse. Während in den Kontrollpräparaten Calcium in den Regionen nachweisbar ist, die den terminalen Zysternen des sarkoplasmatischen Retikulums entsprechen, ist dieses Element in den Kontrakturexperimenten nie in diesen Regionen nachweisbar. Häufig dagegen tritt dieses Element in den Mitochondrien auf. In aktiven mikrosomalen Fraktionen aus dem Ventrikelmyokard ist es auch möglich, Calcium zu quantifizieren. Zwei Komponenten können in der Fraktion unterschieden werden, die sich auf Grund ihrer Fähigkeit, Calcium zu akkumulieren, unterscheiden. Der Calciumgehalt in den Komponenten kann bestimmt werden.
    Notes: Summary X-ray microanalysis was used to compare chemically untreated cryosections of quick-frozen myocardial tissue in “caffeine contracture” with cryosections of normal muscle. Our goal was to find out if it is possible by means of this method to detect changes in the calcium compartmentalization of the myocardial cell occurring by changes in its functional state. While it is possible to quantitate calcium in the cisternae of sarcoplasmic reticulum of the control muscle preparation, calcium could never be detected in these compartments of caffeine-contracted muscles. In active microsomal fraction of ventricular myocardium it is possible to quantitate calcium and also to distinguish two components on account of their different ability to accumulate this element. The calcium content is different in the two components of the fraction.
