    Notes: Abstract A system for the controlled expression of a foreign gene in cultured tobacco cells (Nicotiana tabacum, BY2) by temperature shift was constructed. A 925-base-pair (bp) DNA fragment containing the 5′-flanking region of a low-molecular-mass heat-shock protein gene (HSP18.2) of Arabidopsis thaliana was inserted upstream of the β-glucuronidase reporter gene (GUS). The resulting HSP18.2-GUS construct was introduced into BY2 cells by electroporation or Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Transient expression of the HSP18.2 promoter in protoplasts was very low regardless of the heat shock. Although expression of the HSP18.2-GUS chimeric gene in the stable transformants of BY2 was hardly detected in culture at 25°C, the expression increased rapidly on the transcriptional level when the incubation temperature was shifted to 35–37°C. The optimal temperature for heat-shock induction was 37°C. After a 2-h incubation at 37°C, GUS activity was about 1000-fold greater than that before heat shock. The amount of GUS mRNA was maximum 2 h after heat shock, and then decreased gradually.

    Notes: [Auszug] The primary star of the PSR1957 + 20 system is a pulsar of period 1.6ms, which is eclipsed in the metre waveband for -50 minutes out of each 9.16-hour binary orbit. Timing the pulsar allows the mass of the companion to be measured at -0.025 solar masses (Má©), well below the ...

    Notes: Abstract  Amount, regularity and low seed content of the crop are important properties of scion citrus cultivars. The genetic control of these traits was studied in a progeny derived from the cross Citrus volkameriana×Poncirus trifoliata using molecular marker analysis. Since the traits were not normally distributed, the Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric test was used for quantitative trait loci (QTLs) detection. Most of the QTLs detected correspond to the trait ”number of fruits per tree”, in agreement with its known physiological complexity. Related traits (fruit number, fruit size and seed number) are controlled by QTLs some of which are located in the same genomic regions, suggesting that undesired associations could be broken to some degree by recombination. QTL analysis over years revealed important effects of genotype-by-environment interaction on QTL detection. This result agrees with the differences found for the trait means among years, which was found to be related, among other causes, to the alternate bearing of some genotypes and the amount of rain before harvest.

    Notes: Abstract The known compounds friedelin, maytensifolin B, ginkgetin, bilobetin, and amentoflavone as well as the new triterpene 3β-hydroxyfriedelan-16-one were isolated fromCelaenodendron mexicanum (Euphorbiaceae), an endemic tree of the Pacific Ocean coast of Mexico. The compounds' structures were established on the basis of spectral analysis. The biological effects of aqueous leachates, a CHCl3-MeOH extract and the isolated compounds of leaves and twigs were evaluated on the radicle growth of two plants,Amaranthus leucocarpus andEchinochloa crusgalli, and on the radial growth of three phytopathogenic fungi,Fusarium sp.,Helminthosporium sp., andAlternaria sp. The organic extracts of both leaves and twigs inhibitedAmaranthus and stimulatedEchinochloa radicle growth. On the contrary, friedelin and maytensifolin B stimulatedAmaranthus and inhibitedEchinochloa. The target fungi showed a different response to each treatment, from inhibition to stimulation.
