    Notes: Summary Two week old sorghum seedlings (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) were treated with ferulic acid added to the nutrient solution. Effects on tissue concentration of P, K, Mg, Ca, Fe, and Zn were evaluated after 3 and 6 days. Treatemnts of 0.25 mM ferulic acid approximated the growth inhibition threshold, and after 6 days 0.5 mM treated plants weighed less than controls. Both treatments reduced the P content of the roots and shoots at the 3- and 6-day harvests in three replicate experiments. Roots of treated plants at both harvests had a lower concentration of K and Mg. These reductions in P, K, and Mg were most extensive from the 0.5 mM ferulic acid regime. In some cases at both harvests, shoot K was lower and Mg was higher than control tissue. Ferulic acid effects at the 3-day harvest included an elevation of Ca and depression of Fe in shoots. Changes in nutrient content preceded measurable differences in plant weight. These data indicate that one mechanism of growth inhibition by this allelochemical may be an alteration of nutrient balance.

    Notes: Abstract The bioassay has been one of the most widely used tests to demonstrate allelopathic activity. Often, claims that a particular plant species inhibits the growth of another are based entirely on the seed germination response to solvent extracts of the suspected allelopathic plant; few of these tests are of value in demonstrating allelopathy under natural conditions. The veracity of the bioassay for evaluating naturally occurring compounds for phytotoxicity depends upon the physiological and biochemical response capacity of the bioassay organism and the mechanism(s) of action of the allelochemicals. The possibility that more than one allelochemical, acting in concert at very low concentrations, may be responsible for an observed allelopathic effect makes it imperative that bioassays be extremely sensitive to chemical growth perturbation agents. Among the many measures of phytotoxicity of allelochemicals, the inhibition (or stimulation) of seed germination, radicle elongation, and/or seedling growth have been the parameters of choice for most investigations. Few of these assays have been selected with the view towards the possible mechanism of the allelopathic effect.

    Notes: Abstract Three years of field data in northeastern Nebraska demonstrate that a grain sorghum crop reduces weediness in the following crop year. Weed growth was consistently lower in sorghum areas the year after strip-cropping fields with sequences of four-row bands of grain sorghum, soybeans, and corn. Percentage weed cover was significantly lower early in the year, and midsummer weed biomass was well below that found after corn and soybeans. Weed biomass in June and July following corn was two to four times that of grain sorghum strips. Inhibitory effects of grain sorghum were primarily on broadleaf weeds, often showing no action on grass weeds. No obvious differences were noted in the weed species present after the three crops. Allelopathy provides a logical explanation for the sorghum-mediated weed inhibition found in this study. The data have implications for weed management strategies in agriculture.

    Notes: The versatility of the quadrupole ion trap as a mass spectrometer in which the mass resolution may be varied over a wide range has been demonstrated. Mass resolution of 0.8 × 107 and 1.2 × 107 have been obtained for ions of m/z 414 and m/z 614, respectively, well in excess of the normal value of 3m, where m is the mass of ion. At the highest mass resolution, peak-widths at half-maximum are but 52 × 10-6 u. While it has been shown previously that enhanced mass reslution in the quadrupole ion trap can be achieved by reduction of the mass scanning rate, the range of mass resolutions reported here were achieved by reducing the mass scanning rate, in stages, by an overall factor of ca 5.5 × 104.

    Notes: When the working point of a precursor ion confined within a quadrupole ion trap is moved to the vicinity of a boundary of the stability diagram, fragmentation of the precursor ion can be induced by virtue of energy gained from the radio-frequency trapping field. This behaviour is known as the ‘border effect’. When the isolated precursor ion is subjected to a cooling period of variable duration, in the presence of helium buffer gas and prior to experiencing the ‘border effect’, a high degree of control of the fragmentation pattern is achieved. The cooling period causes decreases in both ion kinetic energy and ion axial excursions. From this preliminary study, it is suggested that the deposition of internal energy during the ‘border effect’ can be varied by changing the duration of the cooling period. In addition to a degree of control of internal energy deposition, the amount of energy which can be deposited in this manner, though unknown, appears to exceed those energy levels achievable with resonance excitation and the ‘border effect’ without collisional cooling, in that an additional fragmentation channel is accessed.

    Notes: Commercial gas chromatography quadrupole ion-trap mass spectrometer (GC/ITMS) instruments have been used in a novel way for the study of negative ions formed from perfluorotributyl-amine and polychlorinated biphenyl compounds. Negative ions, formed during a normal electron impact ionization period in which 70 eV electrons were used, were isolated in an ion trap by the application of a negative DC voltage to the ring electrode that caused all positive ions to be ejected from the ion trap; in the subsequent analytical scan, negatives ions were detected with an electron multiplier biased normally so as to detect positive ions. The major negative-ion species detected from FC-43 were m/z 252 to m/z 633; 34 other negative-ion species were detected also, though in low abundance. The observed negative-ion mass range extended from m/z 252 to m/z 633. The signal-to-noise ratio of negative-ion mass spectra was enhanced by operation of the GC/MS instrument in GC mode and averaging the mass spectra acquired. In an examination of 3 hexachlorobiphenyl compounds, the molecular anion cluster around m/z 360 for the non-ortho-substituted congener 169 was observed with a signal-to-noise ratio of ca. 20 for 90 pg injected on column: the response for congener 169 was greater than that for congener 156 (mono-ortho-substituted) which, in turn, was greater than that for congener 153 (di-ortho-substituted).

    Notes: A simulation study is described of the behaviour of ions confined in a quadrupole ion trap during each of two separate operations of a tandem mass spectrometric experiment. The two operations are those of mass-selective ion isolation and mass-selective resonance excitation to the point of ion ejection from the ion trap. The method of mass-selective ion isolation simulated is that of consecutive ion isolation. Simulation data indicate that the collisional history of the ions prior to the isolation process can greatly influence the degree to which ions survive this process. Simulation data for mass-selective resonance ejection are compared with experimental data obtained with a Finnigan-MAT ion trap mass spectrometer. In each operation, the facility with which ions absorb energy from the field within the ion trap, whether this field is derived from the R.F. drive potential or a supplementary potential, can determine the extent to which ions are retained within the ion trap during the two mass-selective operations described.

    Notes: The 251 MHz 1H and the natural-abundance 63.1 MHz 13C NMR spectra of N,N'-dimethylimidazolidine have been measured from -50 to -170°C. Below about -140°C. nitrogen inversion in the compound becomes slow on the NMR time scale and both the 1H and the 13C spectra indicate that it exists in solution as a mixture of cis and trans conformations having nearly the same energies. The free-energy barrier (ΔG≠) for nitrogen inversion in N,N'-dimethylimidazolidine is 6.4 kcal mol-1, a value which is 1.5 kcal mol-1 lower than that for N-methylpyrrolidine.

    Notes: The natural-abundance 13C NMR spectra of cis,cis-1,5-cyclooctadiene monoepoxide and cis,syn,cis-1,5-cyclooctadiene diepoxide have been investigated over the temperature range of - 10 to - 180°C. Whereas the spectra of the former showed no dynamic NMR effect, two different conformations in the ratio of 3:1 were observed at low temperatures for the latter. The free-energy barrier (ΔG≠) for conversion of the major conformation to the minor conformation is calculated to be 5.9°0.2 kcal mol-1 from a line-shape analysis of spectra obtained at intermediate temperatures. It is shown that cis,syn,cis-1,5-cyclooctadiene diepoxide exists in solution in chair (major) and in twist-boat (minor) conformations of slightly different energies. Interconversion paths between these conformations are discussed. The monoepoxide is suggested to have a twist-boat conformation that is rapidly pseudorotating via a boat conformation even at - 180°C.
