    Notes: Twenty-five patients received 10 ml co-trimoxazole (800 mg sulphamethoxazole and 160 mg trimethoprim) and 25 a placebo by intravenous infusion during one hour from the commencement of surgery for vaginal hysterectomy with anterior colporrhaphy and posterior colpo-perineorrhaphy. Single-dose chemoprophylaxis with co-trimoxazole was shown to be effective in reducing the incidence of post-operative febrile morbidity and urinary tract infection, especially that caused by Proteus species.

    Notes: Abstract. Experiments were set up at two sites to measure nitrogen (N) leaching loss from applications of separated pig/cattle slurry and cattle farmyard manure(FYM), during winters 1990/91–1993/94 (site A) and from broiler litter and FYM, during winters 1990/91–1992/93 (site B). The manures were applied at a target rate of 200 kg ha-1 total N during the autumn and winter to overwinter fallow or top dressed onto winter rye. The total N in leachate was calculated from leachate N concentrations, in samples collected using ceramic cups buried at 90 cm, and an estimate of drainage volume. Nitrogen losses were greatest following manure applications in September, October and November but losses following applications in December or January were not significantly elevated above those from untreated controls. Losses were consistently lower from FYM than from broiler litter or separated slurry. The presence of a cover crop (winter rye) significantly reduced overall N leaching compared with the fallow, but only reduced the manure N leaching losses at one site during one winter when a high proportion of drainage occurred late. The incorporation of a nitrification inhibitor (DCD) with manures applied in October did not significantly reduce the manure N leaching.

    Notes: A study has been made of the flowering requirements, for temperature and photoperiod, of a range of timothy strains, including American, British and Scandinavian material.All the strains tested are long-day in their photoperiodic responses, and there is no “winter requirement” for low temperature (0–5°C.) or short days before flowering. There is, however, an inhibitory effect of high temperature in the greenhouse on flower formation, lf the temperature is too high, no heads are produced, although photoperiod may be adequate. Instead elongated indeterminate shoots are formed which often become stoloniferous.The effect of high temperature varies with the strain, and appears to be related to the May temperature of the region of origin. Under greenhouse temperatures of 55–65°F. American and Canadian commercial strains show little inhibition of flowering, but many plants of the Scandinavian strains fail to produce heads. The British hay strains show intermediate heading behaviour, but only an occasional plant of the diploid S.50 formed heads under these conditions.

    Notes: Results from the pioneering research on the interactions between pH and denitrification in soil from the 1950s to the present are reviewed, the changing perceptions of this complex relationship are discussed, and the current status of the subject is assessed. Facets of this relationship that are analysed in detail include the direct or indirect influence of pH on overall denitrification rates in soils, changes in the composition of gaseous products that depend on pH, methods for measuring the process, the concept of an optimum pH for denitrification, and the adaptation of microbial denitrifying communities to acidic environments. The main conclusions to be drawn are as follows. Total gaseous emissions to the atmosphere (N2O, NO and N2) have repeatedly been shown to be less in acidic than in neutral or slightly alkaline soils. This may be attributable to smaller amounts of organic carbon and mineral nitrogen available to the denitrifying population under acid conditions rather than a direct effect of low pH on denitrification enzymes. Numerous laboratory and field studies have demonstrated that the ratio N2O:N2 is increased when the pH of soils is reduced. The relation between soil pH and potential denitrification as determined by various incubation methods remains unclear, results being influenced both by original conditions in soil samples and by unknown changes during incubation. The concept of an optimum pH for denitrification has been frequently proposed, but such a term has little or no meaning without reference to specific attributes of the process.

    Notes: The importance of leaf area as a determinant of yield in herbage crops is now widely realized. Selection for a rapid increase in leaf area might therefore be a useful approach to the problem of breeding for yield.The present paper describes the seasonal changes in two important components of leaf area, rate of leaf and tiller production, in contrasting varieties of ryegrass, timothy and meadow fescue. The regular seasonal variation in these components in the glasshouse is shown to be determined primarily by available light energy, the species and varieties differing in their response to changes in light energy. The possibilities of selection for these components of leaf area are discussed, but it is pointed out that individual leaf size must also be considered.

    Notes: Normal-acid fibre content has been suggested as a useful indication of the digestibility of herbage. The changes in fibre content were therefore recorded during the spring and early summer of 1957 and 1958 to see whether regular differences occurred between species and varieties of herbage grasses.All species showed an increase in fibre content during spring and early summer, but considerable year-to-year fluctuations occurred: fibre content was also influenced by manuring and spacing. Regular differences between species and varieties have been detecled and, in perennial ryegrass, differences between individual genotypes. It should be possible to select breeding material for high or low fibre content if required.

    Notes: The importance of the time and extent of head production in the herbage grasses has been realized for a long time. In bay or silage making, or in grsiss drying, it deter-mines tbe stage of maturity of the crop, and hence date of cutting, while in both hay and pasture tbe nutritive value of the herbage depends largely on the proportion of leaf and stem present. In seed production, the time of heading is of basic importance. It deter-mines date of harvesting and so may affect yield of seed.

    Notes: A survey was made of the flowering responses of 47 annual, biennial and perennial grasses, to measure the extent of any winter requirement for floral induction, and to see how far this could be provided by controlled cold or short-day treatment.The annual species showed little or no inductive requirement, nor did the perennials Arrheuatherum elatius, Ceratochloa unioloides, Phleum pratense and Poa nemoralis. Most perennials possessed a definite inductive requircinent. A few species, such as Lolium perenne, responded to both cold and short-day given to the young seedling, while others, such as Phleum nodosum, Agrostis alba, A. canina, A. stolonifera and A. tenuis, responded to short-day induction but not to cold.Many temperate perennials, however, including Cynosurus cn'status, Dactylis glomerata, Festuca pratensis, F. rubra, Poa pratensis and P. trivialis did not respond to seedling induction and possibly have a juvenile stage before they are able to respond to inductive conditions.The sequence of flowering responses in the temperate perennial grasses is evidently more complex than was previously thought, and the perennial habit can be achieved by many different developmental pathways.
