    Notes: Abstract An in vitro growth system was used to determine the virulence of two samples of Striga gesnerioides from Zakpota in southern Benin. Cowpea variety B301, previously considered resistant to all races of S. gesnerioides, was susceptible to both samples of the parasite. Two other cowpea varieties, 58–57 and IT81D-994, were totally resistant. Resistance in 58–57 was associated with a hypersensitive necrosis of infected roots, whilst IT81D-994 supported production of small S. gesnerioides tubercles with stems which failed to develop. Striga gesnerioides from southern Benin is the fourth race of the parasite to be identified, and the first with virulence on variety B301. The implications for breeding cowpeas with resistance to S. gesnerioides are discussed.

    Notes: Summary Two breeding procedures were compared in two cowpea crosses. Both procedures were started from the same selected F2 plants in each cross. For the early generation yield testing, the F3 lines were yield tested and a pedigree and bulk methods followed in F4 and F5. Each F5 line was bulked to provide seed for a yield test in F6. In the Single Seed Descent (SSD) procedure, a single seed was taken from each F2 plant to produce the F3 generation. The procedure was repeated for the F4 and F5. The F6 SSD lines and the F6 yield testing lines were compared in yield tests. The results showed that differences in yielding ability of F3 lines persisted over generations indicating that selection was effective. This was confirmed by the high significant correlations between F3 yields and those of later generations which ranged from r=0.51* to 0.85**. The grain yields of lines derived by the single seed descent procedure were as good as those derived from early generation yield testing. Significant linear correlation between visual rating of F3 and F6 yields with actual yields revealed that it is possible to identify promising lines of cowpea visually.

    Notes: Summary Nine cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) breeding lines were grown in 13 experiments under sole crop and intercrop management, with and without insecticide application, in Nigeria. Cowpea was intercropped with cassava (Manihot esculenta Cranz), maize (Zea mays L.) and maize-cassava in the forest zone and with sorghum (Sorghum bicolor Moench.) and millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.) in the savanna zone. Line by cropping system interactions were significant in 5 of 13 experiments and line by insecticide treatment interactions were significant in 2 of 13 experiments. Cowpea yield was severely depressed in intercropped plots and in plots to which no insecticide was applied. Among-environment variation in cowpea yield was greater when no insecticide was applied. Within each management treatment, the yield performance and stability of the cowpea lines was examined. Stability was assessed both by examining among-environment coefficients of variation and by regression analysis. Several of the breeding lines evaluated appeared promising under different levels of management and in a diversity of environments.

    Notes: Graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) was carried out on jute fibers using a V5+ -cyclohexanone redox initiator system. The effect of the concentration of acid, monomer, and V5+ on graft yield have been studied. In order to obtain optimum conditions of grafting, the effects of temperature, acid, reaction medium, solvent, and some inorganic salts on graft yield have been investigated. The most remarkable features of the investigation include the proposition of a mechanism and derivation of rate expression for the grafting process. More than 100% grafting could be achieved with the present system.

    Notes: The kinetics and mechanism of the retarding action of phenol on the V5+-thiourea initiated polymerization of methyl acrylate (MA) have been studied within the temperature range of 30-50°C. The effects of retarder (phenol), metal ion (V5+), monomer (MA), sulfuric acid, some organic solvents and inorganic salts on the percentage and rate of polymerization have been studied. The remarkable observation of the present study is the positive intercept obtained from the plot of [M]/Rp vs. 1/[M]. This type of observation is significantly different from previous studies on retarded polymerization. The values of composite rate constants k0kt/kikpkK have been calculated from plots of [M]/Rp vs. 1/[M]. On the basis of experimental findings a reaction mechanism has been suggested, and a suitable rate expression has been proposed and explained.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Kinetik der Polymerisation von Acrylnitril in wäßriger Lösung mit Peroxodi-sulfat-Thioharnstoff als Redoxinitiator wurde im Temperaturbereich von 40-50°C erforscht. Der Einfluß der Konzentration von Thioharnstoff, Monomeren und Peroxodisulfat auf die Polymerisationsgeschwindigkeit als such auf den Umsatz wurde untersucht. Auch die Auswirkungen einiger anorganischer Salze und verschiedener oraganischer Lösungsmittel auf die Polymerisationsgeschwindigkeit wurde studiert. Die Untersuchung des isolierten Polymeren erfolgte mittels IR-Spektroskopie. Ein ge-eignetes kinetisches Schema wurde vorgeschlagen und ein pasender Geschwindig-keitsaudruck abgeleitet.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wurde die Propfcopolymerisation von Methylmethacrylat (MMA) auf chemisch modifizierte Tussa Seidenfasern in wässrigem Medium unter Verwendung von Kaliumperoxodisulfat-Thioharnstoff als Redoxinitiatorsystem bei 60°C, untersucht. Die Einflüsse der Reaktionszeit, der Konzentration des Oxidans, Thioharnstoff (TU), des Monomeren (M) und des Anteils an Seidenfasern auf die Pfropfausbeute sind untersucht worden. Ebenfalls sind die Einflüsse des Reaktionsmediums, der Säurekonzentration und einiger anorganischer Salze und organischer Lösungsmittel auf den Pfropfgehalt ermittelt worden. Ein signifikanter Anstieg im Pfropfgehalt wurde mit zunehmender Monomerkonzentration bis 65,86 · 10-2 mol · 1-1 beobachtet, während die weitere Zunahme der Monomerkonzentration von einer Abnahme der Pfropfausbeute begleitet ist. Die Pfropfausbeute steigt mit zunehmender Thioharnstoffkonzentration bis 10 · l0-1 mol · 1-1, oberhalb dieser Konzentration fäillt sie sehr stark ab. Ein meßbarer Anstieg der Pfropfausbeute wurde auch bei Zunahme der Konzentration des Oxidans bis 0,08 mol · 1-1 beobachtet, oberhalb dieser nimmt die Pfropfausbeute ab. Die Pfropfausbeute war vom Medium abhängig. Es wurde ein Reaktionsmechanismus des Pfropfprozesses vorgeschlagen und ein Ausdruck fur die Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit aufgrund der experimentellen Ergebnisse entwickelt. Es wurden IR-Spektren der gepfropften und Originalfasern aufgenommen und ihre charakteristischen Banden identifiziert. Das thermische Verhalten der Original- und gepfropften Fasern wurde mit Hilfe der Thermoanalyse ermittelt. Das Pfropfen erhöhte sowohl die thermische Stabilität als auch die Lichtbeständigkeit der Seide, die mit Rhodamin B gefärbt war.
    Notes: The graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) onto chemically modified tussa silk fibers in aqueous media using potassium peroxodisulfate-thiourea redox initiator system was studied at 60°C. The effects of time of reaction, concentrations of oxidant, thiourea (TU), monomer (M), amount of silk fibers on graft yield have been studied. The effects of reaction medium, acid concentration, and some inorganic salts and organic solvents on grafting have also been investigated. A significant increase in percent of grafting was observed with increasing monomer concentration to 65.86 · 10-2 mol · 1-1; a further increase of monomer concentration is associated with the decrease of graft yield. The graft yield increases with an increase of thiourea concentration up to 10 · 10-1 mol · 1-1, beyond which it decreases very significantly. A measurable increase of the graft yield was also observed with an increase of the oxidant concentration up to 0.08 mol · 1-1 beyond which the graft yield decreased. The graft yield was medium dependent. The reaction mechanism of the grafting process has been proposed and a rate expression has been derived on the basis of experimental findings. IR spectra of the grafted fiber and original fiber have been taken and their characteristic bands have been identified. The thermal behaviour of the original and grafted silk fibers has been studied by TGA and DTG analysis. Grafting has improved thermal stability as well as the light fastness of silk dyed with Rhodamine B.
