    Notes: Abstract In osteoarthritis of the knee, degenerative changes occur in the articular cartilage and underlying subchondral bone, particularly of the medial tibial condyle. Cancellous bone sclerosis that accompanies osteoarthritis is not only the result of an increase in bone volume fraction but also a change in trabecular structure. In a comparison with agematched controls (n=4), osteoarthritis (n=11) demonstrated a significant (P≤0.05) increase in bone volume fraction and trabecular thickness. Overal trabecular orientation in the osteoarthritic group was more vertical or perpendicular to the articular surface than the control group (P≤0.05) especially in the trabeculae of the cancellous bone layer closest to the articular surface. These alterations in trabecular bone structure could have significant consequences for the mechanical properties of osteoarthritic bone.

    Notes: Abstract Plant parasitic nematodes are a serious threat for crop production worldwide. This review summarizes our understanding of plant nematode interactions and presents new alternatives for nematode control in the field. Breeding for resistance has been a major goal for many important crop species like soybean, potato, tomato and sugar-beet. As a result numerous nematode-resistance genes have been identified, two of which have been cloned recently, Hs1 pro-1 from sugar-beet, giving resistance to the beet cyst nematode Heterodera schachtii, and Mi from tomato, giving resistance to the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. Also artificial resistance genes, coding for nematotoxic proteins or causing rapid death of feeding cells, have been elucidated. In the future, genetic engineering of nematode resistance will become more and more important for plant breeding. Transformation techniques will allow genes to be quickly introduced into susceptible breeding lines and then combined with each other to produce plant varieties with durable resistance.

    Notes: Summary The activity of single neurons within the hand area of the precentral motor cortex of primates was recorded during the performance of a maintained precision grip between the thumb and forefinger. The finger opposition forces were exerted against a strain gauge which allowed force changes to be studied under near isometric conditions. Task performance required the generation of a force ramp (the dynamic phase) and thereafter the maintenance of a stable force for one second (the static phase). Intracortical stimulation through the recording electrode was used to verify that the recordings were made from the appropriate somatotopographic area of the motor cortex. From a total of 221 recorded neurons, 76 were found to be either activated or deactivated during performance of the task. Among the 51 activated neurons, most discharged at higher frequencies during the dynamic phase, than during the static phase. The discharge of some of these neurons could be related to both force (F) and rate of force change (df/dt) whereas certain others could only be correlated with df/dt. The change in discharge frequency for these neurons generally occurred prior to the onset of EMG activity. Eight neurons were more active during maintained force than during the force ramp. The discharge frequency could not be correlated with df/dt and only one showed a significant positive relation to force. The change in discharge frequency for these neurons either coincided or occurred after the onset of EMG activity.

    Notes: Abstract With the aid of video-enhanced contrast light microscopy the feeding behavior of the cyst nematodeHeterodera schachtii and the root-knot nematodeMeloidogyne incognita has been studied in roots of various cruciferous plants, especially inArabidopsis thaliana, a model plant for molecular studies. The juvenile stage 2 (J2) nematodes ofH. schachtii migrate intracellularly with destructive stylet thrusts before establishing their permanent feeding site (syncytium) within the vascular cylinder. After the selection of the initial syncytial cell (ISC) they undergo a preparation period before they start feeding from the ISC. During all developmental stages feeding occurs in cycles, composed of three distinct phases. In contrast, the J2 ofMeloidogyne incognita reach their permanent feeding site by intercellular migration, first towards the apex of the root, where they turn round, and move towards the differentiating vascular cylinder. A characteristic behavioral pattern, composed of continuous head and stylet movements, interspersed by periods of stylet-tip protrusion and metacorpal bulb pumping is maintained during all phases of parasitism, i.e., root invasion, intercellular migration and feeding from the giant-cells.

    Notes: Summary The development ofHeterodera schachtii inside roots of a cruciferous host plant grown under monoxenic conditions in an agar medium was observed with video-enhanced contrast light microscopy. One to 6 days after inoculation, roots were excised and processed for electron microscopic observations. Exudates were present on the cuticle surfaces of J 2 and early J 3 juveniles located at feeding sites. Fibrillar exudations were correlated with similar fibrillar patterns in the epicuticle, exocuticle, intermediate zone, and the striated endocuticle. Secretion vesicles assembled at many Golgi sites in the hypodermis, appeared to coalesce and form large electron translucent vesicles in the cytoplasm. We propose that secretion vesicles migrate toward the cuticle, contact the plasmalemma and transfer their contents by exocytosis or a similar mechanism to a secretion accumulation site. These contents are associated with cuticle structure and emerge as surface exudations.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary A monoxenic resistance test for routine use was developed to determine the resistance of potato genotypes to the cyst nematodeGlobodera pallida (Stone) Behrens. The basis of the procedure is the aseptic cultivation of the genotypes under test in a nutrient medium in defined conditions. It was possible with it to observe invasion, the development of the nematodes, as well as the dimensions of their feeding cells in the transparent potato roots. Small, quantitative differences, due presumably to the polygenically determined resistance reactions of the genotypes, could be distinguished, and selection for resistance was feasible. For routine trials special procedures were developed using surface sterilisation of potato seed and etiolated sprouts which gave high levels of sterility. The genotypes from seeds could be tested directly, but those from etiolated sprouts had to be prepared by stem cutting. A root system was obtained which correlated with known ratings. Each genotype established from seed and etiolated shoots, developed at different rates, as did their root systems, and no definite timespan could be set before nematode introduction. Growing the cultivars under light before the test resulted in faster root development (Table 2), and a higher nematode infestation than in darkness (Figure 4). The time for nematode inoculation was determined by a rating system based on the location of the perimeter of the root system (Figure 5). In this way physiological factors and the individual growth rate of each genotype were allowed for, with the aim of assessing possibly high levels of nematode infection. At the end of the test the seedling genotypes can be removed from sterile culture and grown on in pots. Where genotypes form minitubers (Table 1) it is possible to proceed early to the next stage in cultivation or to store them trouble-free.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Zur routinemässigen Resistenzbestimmung von Kartoffelgenotypen gegenüberGlobodera pallida (Stone) Behrens (Pa3) wurde ein monoxenischesin vitro-Verfahren entwickelt, dessen Grundlage die keimfreie Kultivierung der Testgenotypen in einem Nähragarmedium unter definierten Bedingungen war. Dadurch konnte die vollständige Entwicklung der Nematoden sowie die Dimension ihres Nährzellensystems in den transparenten Kartoffelwurzeln kontinuierlich beobachtet werden. Der Test ermöglichte die Selektion resistenter Genotypen anhand geringer quantitativer Unterschiede in der vermutlich polygen-vererbten Resistenzreaktion. Für die Anzucht keimfreier Pflanzen aus Kartoffelsamen und- knollen wurden spezielle Verfahren entwickelt und an mehreren Genotypen geprüft. Die dabei festgestellte Variabilität, insbesondere bei der Wurzelbildung, erforderte für den geeigneten Zeipunkt der Nematodenzugabe die Ausarbeitung eines Wurzelboniturschemas. Die Genotypen konnten nach dem Test in Töpfen weiterkultiviert werden.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary A monoxenicin vitro culture technique can distinguish small differences in the presumed polygenically determined resistance reactions of potato genotypes toGlobodera pallida (Stone) Behrens (Pa3) and can be used in selection. The basis for such a resistance test is the simple and reproducible cultivation ofG. pallida with the aim of achieving the complete life cycle of the nematode under monoxenic conditions. A routine practical technique was developed for hatching the juveniles in a closed system (Figure 1). This was achieved by the introduction of a hatching solution which was a mixture of root washings and 0.6 mmol l−1 picrolonic acid with a pH of 5.9 (=pH value of the nutrient agar). Using special hatching tubes the juveniles from 1000 cysts per tube could be hatched and counted within 2 or 3 days, as shown by experiment (Figure 3). Finally, the juveniles were surface sterilised in a special apparatus and distributed serially to the test genotypes (Figure 2). A density of 1000 juveniles per genotype gave the highest nematode infection (Figure 4) but allowance must be made for the surface sterilisation which in giving a high standard of asepsis killed up to 80% of the juveniles. At the same time especially vital juveniles were selected, thereby guaranteeing that the test was stringent and unequivocal. A variant of the technique used germ-free cysts which had been formed under monoxenic conditions. These were removed and crushed. The hatching effect of the genotypes' roots meant that 500 nematode eggs were sufficient for high infection. The test scores were based on the development within the roots of invading juveniles which could be observed continuously with a stereomicroscope. Males (Figure 5) and females (Figure 6) could be easily distinguished at low magnification (x10) 3–4 weeks and 4–6 weeks after the introduction of surface sterilised juveniles and monoxenically cultivated cysts respectively.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Durch die monoxenischein vitro-Kultivierung können geringe quantitative Unterschiede in der vermutlich polygen-vererbten Resistenzreaktion von Kartoffelgenotypen gegenüberGlobodera pallida (Stone) Behrens (Pa3) festgestellt und für die Selektion verwendet werden. Grundvoraussetzung hierfür ist die einfache und reproduzierbarein vitro-Kultivierung vonG. pallida. Für die Schlupfaktivierung, die Oberflächensterilisation und die Zugabe definierter Larvendichten wurden routinemässig durchführbare Verfahren entwickelt, die einen vollständigen Lebenszyklus der Nematoden unter monoxenischen Bedingungen ermöglichen. Die aus dieserin vitro-Population gewonnenen keimfreien Zysten können für eine vereinfachte Resistenzprüfung eingesetzt werden. Die Testauswertung orientiert sich an der Entwicklung der in die Wurzeln eingedrungenen Larven. Sie kann mit einem Stereomikroskop kontinuierlich beobachtet werden.
