TY - JOUR T1 - Estimation of Efficiency of Processing Soil Samples for Pesticide Residues Analysis AN - 856763222; 13897014 AB - The efficiency of four sample processing methods was tested with eight different types of soils representing the major proportion of cultivated soils. The principle of sampling constant was applied for characterizing the efficiency of the procedures and testing the well-mixed status of the prepared soil. The test material was 14C-labeled atrazine that enabled keeping the random error of analyses , about 1%. Adding water to the soil proved to be the most efficient and generally applicable procedure resulting in about 6% relative sample processing uncertainty for 20 g test portions. The expected error is inversely proportional to the mass of test portion. Smashing and manual mixing of soil resulted in about four times higher uncertainty than mixing with water. Grinding of soil is applicable for dry soils only, but the test procedure applied was not suitable for estimating a typical uncertainty of processing dry soil samples. Adding dry ice did not improve the efficiency of sample processing.

AN - 68599538; 16813292 AB - ABSTRACT Contact between ants and insecticides is a prerequisite for contact insecticides to be effective in the control of red imported fire ants, Solenopsis invicta Buren. Typically, passive contact occurs in the insecticide application process, but ants also may actively contact insecticides by digging in treated soil or walking on a treated soil surface. Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine whether fire ant workers would dig sand treated with contact insecticides in two different scenarios: (1) no-choice bioassays where insecticide-treated sand was the only available digging substrate, and (2) two-choice bioassays where nontoxicant sand was also available for digging. Eight insecticides that are currently registered in the United States for imported fire ant control were tested. They include acephate, bifenthrin, carbaryl, cyfluthrin, deltamethrin, gamma-cyhalothrin, permethrin, and pyrethrin. Workers dug the treated sand for every insecticide tested, even at concentrations up to 10 times of the lowest lethal concentration (LLC) which caused 100% mortality in a toxicity bioassay. However, generally, insecticides significantly reduced the digging effort, even at a concentration that did not cause any significant mortality in the toxicity bioassay.

AN - 68597802; 16813326 AB - The potential for transfer of chlorfenapyr among subterranean termites was investigated using a donor-recipient (5:95 ratio) experiment. In one experiment, workers of Reticulitermes flavipes (Kollar) (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) were exposed to treated sand at 0, 50, 100, 250, and 500 ppm chlorfenapyr (wt [AI]/wt sand). Exposed workers were allowed to interact with untreated nestmates for 14 d, after which mortality was assessed. The three colonies responded differently to the treatments in this experiment. For two colonies, donor exposure rates of 500 ppm (as well as 250 ppm for colony B) chlorfenapyr resulted in significantly greater recipient mortality than controls. For colony C, donor chlorfenapyr exposure did not significantly influence recipient mortality. In a second experiment examining donor mortality over time, donor termites exposed to all test concentrations of chlorfenapyr (except for 0 ppm) suffered 100% mortality within 5 d. Analysis of donor termite body washes using gas chromatography indicated a linear uptake of chlorfenapyr by termites over the concentration range studied. Thus, for this concentration range, no upper limit (saturation plateau) of termite uptake for chlorfenapyr was reached.

AN - 68597173; 16813294 AB - Susceptibility of the southern green stink bug, Nezara viridula (L.) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), and its endoparasitoid Trichopoda pennipes (F.) (Diptera: Tachinidae) to acetamiprid, cyfluthrin, dicrotophos, indoxacarb, oxamyl, and thiamethoxam was compared in residual and oral toxicity tests. In the residual toxicity test, cyfluthrin, dicrotophos, and oxamyl were highly toxic to N. viridula. Thiamethoxam was moderately toxic to these insects. Each of the four insecticides was highly toxic to T. pennipes after prolonged tarsal contact with dried residues of these chemicals. In the oral toxicity test, where N. viridula fed on food covered with insecticide residues, none of the insecticides were toxic to adults of this stink bug, but acetamiprid, dicrotophos, and thiamethoxam were moderately toxic to the nymphs. In the oral toxicity test, where N. viridula fed on a gel-food containing insecticides, cyfluthrin, dicrotophos, oxamyl, and thiamethoxam were highly toxic to this stink bug. In an oral toxicity test using contaminated sugar water, all of the insecticides were highly toxic to T. pennipes. Because insecticides were as toxic, or more toxic, to T. pennipes than to N. viridula, it is extremely important to conserve this parasitoid by applying these insecticides for control of southern green stink bugs only when the pest reaches economic threshold.

AN - 68595300; 16813296 AB - Anoplophora glabripennis Motschulsky, an Asian cerambicid beetle, was first found in the United States in 1996 and was likely introduced into the United States through infested wood packing materials and dunnage. Methyl bromide (MeBr) fumigation is an internationally accepted treatment for such wood-boring beetles, but the use of MeBr is scheduled for reduction or elimination as alternatives become available. The use of MeBr can be reduced by more efficient and technically sound fumigation techniques, including good circulation and proper loading. Concentration x time products (CxT) reported for A. glabripennis in solid wood timbers were used to test estimated doses in container fumigations conducted in Tianjin and Shanghai, China, during years 2002-2003. We found that CxT products observed were generally adequate and would support reduced doses of MeBr at temperatures intermediate (10.0 and 15.6 degrees C) to the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service schedule of 80 g and 48 g/m3 at > or =4.4 and > or = 21.1degrees C, respectively. The use of fans is recommended, and loading of the containers should never reach 100% to allow for better circulation and desorption. Proper use of fans will allow for better aeration and increase safety to inspectors and consignees of containerized fumigated commodities.

AN - 68570721; 16790254 AB - The cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L. var. botrytis) Or gene is a rare carotenoid gene mutation that confers a high level of beta-carotene accumulation in various tissues of the plant, turning them orange. To investigate the biochemical basis of Or-induced carotenogenesis, we examined the carotenoid biosynthesis by evaluating phytoene accumulation in the presence of norflurazon, an effective inhibitor of phytoene desaturase. Calli were generated from young seedlings of wild type and Or mutant plants. While the calli derived from wild type seedlings showed a pale green color, the calli derived from Or seedlings exhibited intense orange color, showing the Or mutant phenotype. Concomitantly, the Or calli accumulated significantly more carotenoids than the wild type controls. Upon treatment with norflurazon, both the wild type and Or calli synthesized significant amounts of phytoene. The phytoene accumulated at comparable levels and no major differences in carotenogenic gene expression were observed between the wild type and Or calli. These results suggest that Or-induced beta-carotene accumulation does not result from an increased capacity of carotenoid biosynthesis.

AN - 68098772; 16786842 AB - Risk studies have identified cross-contamination during beef fabrication as a knowledge gap, particularly as to how and at what levels Escherichia coli O157:H7 transfers among meat and cutting board (or equipment) surfaces. The objectives of this study were to determine and model transfer coefficients (TCs) between E. coli O157:H7 on beef tissue and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) cutting board surfaces. Four different transfer scenarios were evaluated: (i) HDPE board to agar, (ii) beef tissue to agar, (iii) HDPE board to beef tissue to agar, and (iv) beef tissue to HDPE board to agar. Also, the following factors were studied for each transfer scenario: two HDPE surface roughness levels (rough and smooth), two beef tissues (fat and fascia), and two conditions of the initial beef tissue inoculation with E. coli O157:H7 (wet and dry surfaces), for a total of 24 treatments. The TCs were calculated as a function of the plated inoculum and of the cells recovered from the first contact. When the treatments were compared, all of the variables evaluated interacted significantly in determining the TC. An overall TC-per-treatment model did not adequately represent the reduction of the cells on the original surface after each contact and the interaction of the factors studied. However, an exponential model was developed that explained the experimental data for all treatments and represented the recontamination of the surfaces with E. coli O157:H7. The parameters for the exponential model for cross-contamination with E. coli O157:H7 between beef tissue and HDPE surfaces were determined, allowing for the use of the resulting model in quantitative microbial risk assessment.

AN - 68096036; 16786868 AB - Mixtures of six Salmonella Typhimurium DT 104 strains were inoculated into three ground pork products to determine the effect of fat content on the radiation resistance of Salmonella DT 104. The ground pork products were 90% lean, 50:50 fat:lean, and 100% fat. Inoculated products were irradiated using a gamma radiation source in a self-contained 137Cesium irradiator or a 10 MeV accelerator producing electrons (e-beam). The radiation D10-values (dose required for a 90% inactivation of viable CFU) for Salmonella DT 104 inoculated into 90% lean ground pork, 50:50 fat/lean ground pork, and 100% pork fat and subjected to beta radiation were 0.42 kGy, 0.43 kGy, and 0.43 kGy, respectively. The corresponding radiation D10-values for Salmonella DT 104 subject to gamma radiation were 0.56, 0.62, and 0.62 kGy, respectively. There was no statistical significant difference (P = 0.3) in radiation D10-values for Salmonella in the three products subject to either radiation treatment. Therefore, fat content had no effect.

AN - 68095998; 16786867 AB - Internally contaminated eggs have been implicated as leading sources of transmission of Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) to humans. Although SE is not often deposited inside the nutrient-rich yolks of naturally contaminated eggs, penetration through the vitelline membrane to reach the yolk contents could result in rapid bacterial multiplication. In previous studies, such penetration has been observed occasionally at warm temperatures during experiments with in vitro egg contamination models. The present study was conducted to determine whether refrigeration affects the frequency of in vitro SE penetration of the egg yolk membrane. After inoculation of small numbers of SE onto the outside of the vitelline membranes of intact yolks, immediate refrigeration of contaminated samples prevented the penetration of SE into the egg yolk contents during 24 h of storage. However, SE penetrated inside the yolk contents in 4% of contaminated egg samples refrigerated after 2 h of storage at 30 degrees C, 15% of samples refrigerated after 6 h of storage at 30 degrees C, and 40% of samples stored at 30 degrees C for 24 h (48 samples per treatment group). These results highlight the value of prompt refrigeration for restricting the opportunities for SE to multiply to high numbers inside the yolks of contaminated eggs.

AN - 67833635; 16426721 AB - Atrazine (ATR) significantly inhibited phosphodiesterase (PDE) in crude homogenates of swine heart, brain, and lung, but not liver or kidney tissues. Except for heart, PDE activities in the cytosolic fraction of the tissue homogenates were not affected by ATR. The inhibition of the PDE activity in the cytosol from heart homogenate was not significantly different between ATR and a non-specific PDE inhibitor, 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX). Dixon plots of the crude tissue homogenates showed that heart and brain were inhibited via two different mechanisms (competitive or mixed inhibition, and noncompetitive inhibition, respectively), suggesting that ATR may be a semi-specific PDE inhibitor. Furthermore, in crude tissue homogenates, ATR did not inhibit PDE as effectively as IBMX suggesting that there are ATR-susceptible and ATR-nonsusceptible forms of PDE. Association constants for ATR were 55 microM for heart and 310 microM for brain. The stability of the activity of PDE was affected by freezing, requiring the use of only freshly prepared tissue homogenates.

While deforestation & forest fragmentation as a result of colonization & agriculture have been widespread in neotropical countries over the past few decades, in some places agricultural intensification, wage labor, & rural to urban migration are becoming the most important emerging trends. Changes like this have resulted in forest recovery in other places, mostly in temperate zones, but there have been few studies of this phenomenon in the tropics. This paper presents a case study from a national park buffer zone in Costa Rica. An expansion of Braulio Carrillo National Park (BCNP) in 1986 forced the closing of a frontier that had been characterized by spontaneous colonization & widespread forest-to-pasture conversion. After that time, the Sarapiqui region surrounding the northern sector of BCNP underwent a dramatic social & economic transformation. Population more than doubled, new roads created easy access to a coastal port & the capital city (San Jose), industrial agriculture & ecotourism enterprises expanded, & population & urbanization along major highways increased. In spite of government reforestation & forest protection programs & changes in rural people's attitudes favoring forest conservation, we find that there has been only slight detectable forest recovery in satellite imagery & that forest fragmentation continued, even in remote rural areas near BCNP with stable or shrinking population. We attribute this to the consolidation of landholdings into large cattle ranches & smaller hobby ranches, driven by an inflow of capital from urban areas & developed countries. This pattern has important implications for the management of this & other national park buffer zones. We suggest that strategies focused only on sustainable land use inside buffer zones are unlikely to succeed when carried out in a context of certain macro-level changes. Conservation of endangered biological resources will only be possible if we broaden our thinking about national parks & adjacent lands in the tropics to address new land ownership & use patterns that are occurring as a result of globalization, urbanization, & expanding wage labor employment.

Aspergillus flavus, the most common species causing crop contamination, is a common inhabitant of the Sonoran desert of North America where it resides in complex communities composed of diverse individuals. This diversity reflects divergent adaptation to various ecological niches. SomeA. flavus isolates that are well adapted to plant associated niches do not produce aflatoxins yet have the capacity to competitively exclude aflatoxin producers. These atoxigenic strains can serve as biological control agents for management of aflatoxins in crops. Detailed knowledge of the ecology of aflatoxin-producing fungi may lead to novel practical methods for limiting contamination.

Much of the knowledge available today on the regulation of secondary metabolite production in fungi has been gleaned from studies of the aflatoxin gene cluster inA. flavus andA. parasiticus and the sterigmatocystin gene cluster inA. nidulans. Regulation of these two gene clusters is under the control of both pathway-specific transcription factors such as AflR and AflJ and global or broad-domain transcription factors such as AreA and PacC. Study of secondary metabolite (sec-) mutants inA. parasiticus first identified an association between mycotoxin production and fungal development. This linkage has been extended at the molecular level by the characterization of a G-protein/cAMP/Protein kinase A signaling pathway that regulates sporulation via the transcription factor BrlA and aflatoxin/sterigmatocystin production via AflR. Another global regulator of mycotoxin production, VeA, mediates a developmental light-response inA. nidulans andA. flavus. Though not similar to any known fungal transcriptional regulators, VeA controls aflatoxin/sterigmatocystin production via transcriptional control of AflR and it also regulates development of sexual structures such as cleistothecia inA. nidulans and sclerotia inA. flavus.

Surveys have found that maize in Nepal is contaminated withFusarium species, mainlyF. verticillioides andF. proliferatum, which produce fumonisins, andF. graminearum, which produces trichothecenes, mainly nivalenol and 4-deoxynivalenol. Maize from smallholder farms and markets is often contaminated with fumonisins and trichothecenes above 1000 ng/g, a level of concern for human health. These mycotoxins were not eliminated by traditional fermentation for producing maize beer, but Nepalese women were able to detoxify contaminated maize by hand-sorting visibly disease kernels. An integrated approach to reduce mycotoxins risks in maize in Nepal and other developing countries should include plant breeding to produce ear rot resistant cultivars, along with education in mycotoxins risks and in agricultural and grain storage practices to reduce mycotoxin contamination.

Of all the methods available to-date, conventional breeding and/or genetic engineering to develop host plant-based resistance to aflatoxin-producing fungi appear to be valuable for several reasons. However, breeding for disease-resistant crops is very time consuming, especially in tree crops, and does not lend itself ready to combat the evolution of new virulent fungal races. Moreover, availability of known genotypes with natural resistance to mycotoxin-producing fungi is a prerequisite for the successful breeding program. While it is possible to identify a few genotypes of corn or peanuts that are naturally resistant toAspergillus we do not know whether these antifungal factors are specific toA. flavus. In crops like cotton, there are no known naturally resistant varieties toAspergillus. Availability of transgenic varieties with antifungal traits is extremely valuable as a breeding tool. Several antifungal proteins and peptides are available for genetic engineering of susceptible crop species, thanks to the availability of efficient modern tools to understand and evaluate protein interactions by proteomics of host, and genomics and field ecology of the fungus. Transgenic approaches are being undertaken in several industry and academic laboratories to prevent invasion byAspergillus fungi or to prevent biosynthesis of aflatoxin. Recent trends in reducing aflatoxin contamination through genetic engineering of cultivated crop species with antifungal proteins are summarized in this report.

These have included assays for fumonisins, deoxynivalenol and acetylated derivatives, aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, and zearalenone and related metabolites. Sensitivity in the FP assays may change dramatically over time, depending upon the antibody/tracer combination used. An important aspect of these homogeneous assays is the time required to reach an equilibrium endpoint. Although it is counterintuitive, the sensitivity of FP assays can actually be improved with shorter incubation times. However, the need for sensitivity must often be balanced against the need for the analyst to reproducibly time the incubation. The technical acumen of the analyst would be relatively more important in assays where measurements are taken before the system reaches equilibrium. In many cases the desired assays are those which reach equilibrium (and therefore give a stable endpoint) quickly, which may occur at the expense of sensitivity. It is for this reason the FP immunoassays are frequently not as sensitive as traditional ELISAs. Nevertheless, for many of the major mycotoxins rapid FP immunoassays can be developed, provided the appropriate combinations of antibody and tracer are used.

Such variation is not always correlated with phylogenetic relationships of species as determined by sequencing primary metabolic genes; distantly related species can share the same mycotoxin biosynthetic genotype and resulting phenotype, while more closely related species can differ. These findings provide further evidence that the evolution of mycotoxin biosynthesis inFusarium has not always been congruent with the evolution of species.

Nothing is known about Toll-like receptor (TLR) expression nor functional activation and cytokine/chemokine gene expression of line A and B heterophils when stimulated with TLR agonists. We found that line A and B heterophils express the same range of TLRs. All the bacterial TLR agonists, peptidoglycan, the synthetic lipoprotein Pam3CSK4, ultra-pure lipopolysaccharide, and flagellin all induced significantly greater functional activation of heterophils from line A compared to B. Only stimulation with the guanosine analog, loxoribine, (LOX) induced a significantly greater functional response in B over A. Additionally, all heterophils from line A stimulated with the bacterial TLR agonists had dramatic upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokine and chemokine mRNA expression, whereas heterophils from line B had little or no upregulation of these genes. However, stimulation of all heterophils from line B with the bacterial TLR agonists and LOX induced a significant upregulation of IFN- alpha , with little transcription of this cytokine gene in line A heterophils. These findings suggest that the difference in heterophil functional efficiency between these parent lines is due to recognition of pathogens and activation of signaling pathways that induce innate cytokine and chemokine responses.

The organism is classified as several subspecies. To determine the phylogenetic relatedness among strains of subsp. avenae, citrulli, and cattleyae, 16S-23S rDNA internally transcribed spacer (ITS) region sequencing, DNA/DNA reassociation assays, and AFLP analyses were conducted. Results of ITS sequencing showing a similarity of 97.3% or greater was found among all the strains. The DNA/DNA reassociation assays revealed two distinct species-level taxa among strains of subsp. avenae; taxon A included six strains from corn which interrelated at a mean reciprocal similarity (mrs) of 81.1% and taxon B included six strains from rice interrelated at a mrs of 97.0%. Subspecies citrulli consisted of a single taxon containing 11 strains from cucurbits interrelated at a mrs of 88.4%. Subspecies cattleyae consisted of a single taxon containing four strains from orchids interrelated at a mrs of 98.3%. The mrs between the four taxa was less than 70%, suggesting species-level relatedness. The AFLP analysis revealed the same four groups at a similarity of 40-50%. On the basis of these and previous genetic and phenotypic results, we suggest strains of the four Acidovorax taxa be re-classified at the species rank.

Mouse-ear has been associated with nematode parasitism in some commercial pecan orchards in Georgia. A field microplot study of pecan seedlings treated with either Meloidogyne partityla or Criconemoides xenoplax or or both found that parasitism by M. partityla can increase severity of ME symptoms. Furthermore, severity of ME symptoms was inversely proportional (P less than or equal to 0.05) to Ni concentration in the pecan leaflets, thus supporting previous findings that ME severity is due to a physiological Ni deficiency. Results also indicate that parasitism by C. xenoplax appears to have little or no influence on ME severity or Ni nutrition of pecan. These results provide useful insights into the interrelationship among the pecan root-knot nematode, severity of ME symptoms, and Ni deficiency in pecan. The need to further investigate potential management strategies of M. partityla on pecan is warranted.

Primers were designed based on the Temecula genome sequence and used to conduct PCR on PLS strains and America PD and almond leaf scorch disease (ALSD) strains. Both PD and ALSD strains were PCR positive. In contrast, PLS strains were positive only with eight primer sets from mdh, rpmE, gltA, rpfA, rpfB, sucD, dnaN and gyrB. Efforts were made to sequence the PCR amplicons of PLS strains from the eight genomic loci. Among the three completed (mdh, rpmE and sucD), sequences between PLS strains were highly similar. Similarity between a PLS strain and the America strains represented by strain Temecula was 87% (749/852) at mdh, 92% (222/240) at rpmE and 90% (831/921) at gltA. The loci with no PCR amplification indicated the absence or high degree of sequence heterogeneity. These data indicate the presence of a Taiwan-PLS cluster distinct from the known strains clusters of X. fastidiosa.

Puccinia coronata, the causal agent of crown rust, is a macrocyclic, heteroecious rust with a broad telial host range including more than 45 genera of grasses. P. coronata has been subdivided into formae specialis based on telia host range or into varieties base on morphological characters. Neither of these systems is completely satisfactory. Phylogenetic analysis of ITS DNA sequences of 40 P. coronata collections from telial and aceial hosts formed seven well-supported clades: Clade I included collections from Elytrigia repens, Hordeum vulgare and Rhamnus cathartica; Clade II included collections from Bromus erectus and R. saxatilis, Clade III included collections from B. inermis and R. cathartica; Clade IV included collections from Arrhenatherum elatius and Holcus lanatus; Clade V included collections from Alopecurus aequalis, Avena sativa.

(F genome) to Gossypium hirsutum L. (AD genome) AN - 20924349; 6971002 AB - Two triple species hybrids, HLA and HHL were developed to give tetraploid plants (52 chromosomes) containing a single, complete set of chromosomes from each species including Gossypium longicalyx. Rotylenchulus reniformis penetrated roots of both hybrids but did not develop normally or produce appreciable egg masses. Two months after inoculation, nematode levels in pots containing resistant hybrid plants were less than 2% of the levels in pots with susceptible plants and by four months were undetectable. Twenty-eight backcross families were developed from the two hybrids, and several thousand progeny were screened for resistance, chromosome normality and/or marker associations. Normal chromosome numbers and behavior occurred in most resistant plants after three backcrosses, and selfed backcross-6 plants homozygous for high levels of resistance were similar to commercial cottons in yield and fiber quality. Segregation patterns indicate that resistance is due to a single dominant gene. Both molecular and phenotypic characters were associated with the resistance.

A previous genomic sequence analysis has identified 15 polyketides synthase (PKS) genes in F. verticillioides. We are characterizing these genes to determine 1) the polyketide metabolites synthesized by the PKSs, 2) whether production of the polyketide metabolites contributes to pathogenesis on maize, and 3) whether the PKS genes are located within gene clusters. Disruption analysis of eight of the PKS genes indicated that PKS3 is required for production of the dark pigment in perithecial walls, that PKS4 is required for production of the pigment bikaverin, and that PKS10 is required for production of the fusarin mycotoxins, as previously reported in other Fusarium species. Microarray analysis indicated that PKS10 and eight contiguous genes on one side of it are co-expressed whereas genes on the other side of PKS10 are not. Sequence comparisons indicate that six of the co-expressed genes encode enzymes (e.g. oxidoreductases and a carboxymethly transferase) expected to be required for fusarin biosynthesis. PKS4 and 7 contiguous genes adjacent to it are also co-expressed. These results indicate that PKS4 and PKS10 are members of polyketide biosynthetic gene clusters.

Twelve samples, including six known CGRMV samples, were identified to be CGRMV, and six to be CNRMV, and five to be mixed infection of both viruses by sequence analyses. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that these viruses belong to two groups, CGRMV and CNRMV-like groups. The isolates in CGRMV group showed high homology, and the variation was up to 4.1%, which was comparable to the variation among different clones of the same isolate. There was no correlation between the geographical origin of the CGRMV isolates and their position within the group. Unlike the CGRMV group, the CNRMV group formed three clusters that were related to their geographic origins. The first one included a Chinese isolate and four Japanese isolates, the second one five CNRMV-US isolates collected from the same location, and the third one an US CGRMV isolate. The Asian cluster was highly homologous to the characterized CNRMV, and two US clusters were distinct to each other and to the Asian cluster. The variation between them was 19.5% to 26.2%.

Two distinct genotypes are associated with ALSD. A-genotype strains cause ALSD but not PD. G-genotype strains cause both ALSD and PD. However, little is known about intra-genotypic relationships. For example, it remains unclear how variable G-genotype strains isolated from the same, as well as the near-by, orchards or vineyards are. We identified a potential hyper-variable region in the locus of pspB (PD 1208) encoding a putative serine protease. Calculated from the genome sequence of X. fastidosa strain Temecula, the N terminus of pspB is characterized by the presence of 22 tandem repeats of TP (threonine and proline). This converts to the tandem nucleotide repeat of [ACG(A)CCA] sub(22). Analysis of sequences of PCR amplicons from 60 ALSD strains isolated from the same almond orchard using primers flanking the hyper-variable region showed a highly variable number of tandem repeats within each A- and G-genotype group.

A total of 131 single uredinial isolates from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan, were tested for virulence to 20 isolines of Thatcher wheat with single leaf rust resistance genes. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) genotypes of 56 isolates were determined with 23 primer pairs that amplified 93 polymorphic alleles. Seventeen isolates from the U.S. were also included for comparison. The isolates from Central Asia clustered into 2 groups at 62% similarity, based on virulence/avirulence to genes Lr1 and Lr2a. Allelic variation at SSR loci also grouped the isolates based on virulence/avirulence to genes Lr1 and Lr2a at 64% similarity, with a correlation of 58% between the virulence and SSR distance matrices. Measures of population differentiation (Fst, Rst) indicated that the populations from Azerbaijan-Kazakhstan; Tajikistan-Kazakhstan; and Kazakhstan-Uzbekistan varied significantly for SSR allelic frequencies. Isolates from the U.S. clustered in different groups for virulence and SSR genotypes, and varied significantly for SSR allelic frequencies from the populations in Central Asia.

Entries in the PM nursery from Southern and Eastern US were screened on detached seedling leaves. The observed virulence patterns were then compared to virulence patterns of differential lines with known genes. There were some occurrences of Pm1, 2, 4a, and 6. The genes commonly proposed were Pm3c, 3f, 5, and 8. The Pm3a gene was commonly observed, but not in the 114 cultivars that were in multiple tests. These entries had inconsistent results within years and across years for cultivars that were replicated. Sources of variability in reactions may be a result of: variability in test protocol, changes in test isolates between years, non-pure seed source of the differentials, or entries of seed that came from non-pure sources. These results indicate test lines should be screened in multiple years for accurate projections of major PM genes in breeding entries. Results do not reflect all potential major PM genes present in germplasm; genes such as Pm12, 16-17 and 25 were not included. Results indicate breeders have consistently bred certain genes into released cultivars.

In this paper, we report on the sequencing of the ITS LSU-rDNA and beta-tubulin loci used to identify a fungus isolated from the cuticle of a P. nasuta that emerged from coffee berries infected with the coffee berry borer. The sequences were compared with deposits in GenBank and the fungus was identified as Aspergillus westerdijkiae. The fungus tested positive for ochratoxin A production, with varying levels depending on the media in which it was grown.

The disease is caused by Tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) and the recently described tombusvirus, Lettuce necrotic stunt virus (LNSV). The complete genome of LNSV was sequenced, compared with genomes of other tombusviruses, and was found Io be related to but distinct from TBSV. Both LNSV and TBSV can infect lettuce through the soil in the absence of fungal vectors. Fields with high disease incidence are usually poorly drained, and field and greenhouse tests determined that elevated soil salinity, as measured by electrical conductivity led to increased frequency of diseased plants. Neither virus appears to be transmissible through seed embryos, however, seed coat transmission occurred at low levels when plants were tested as seedlings for the presence of virus. The ability to detect virus in seedlings, however, does not always lead to development of disease symptoms. Resistance based on a single dominant gene, Tvr1, is widespread among commercial crisphead lettuce cultivars, and resistance has also been identified for other lettuce types. LNSV and TBSV can accumulate in seedlings of both resistant and susceptible cultivars based on ELISA, but resistant varieties do not develop disease symptoms, and virus accumulation is rarely detectable in resistant plants from the field.

Fishers select a variety of structures for daily resting bouts. These habitat elements, together with foraging and reproductive (denning) habitat, constitute the habitat requirements of fishers. We develop a model capable of predicting the suitability of fisher resting habitat using standard forest vegetation inventory data. The inventory data were derived from Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA), a nationwide probability-based sample used to estimate forest characteristics. We developed the model by comparing vegetation and topographic data at 75 randomly selected fisher resting structures in the southern Sierra Nevada with 232 forest inventory plots. We collected vegetation data at fisher resting locations using the FIA vegetation sampling protocol and centering the 1-ha FIA plot on the resting structure. To distinguish used and available inventory plots, we used nonparametric logistic regression to evaluate a set of a priori biological models. The top model represented a dominant portion of the Akaike weights (0.87), explained 31.5% of the deviance, and included the following variables: average canopy closure, basal area of trees <51 cm diameter breast height (dbh), average hardwood dbh, maximum tree dbh, percentage slope, and the dbh of the largest conifer snag. Our use of routinely collected forest inventory data allows the assessment and monitoring of change in fisher resting habitat suitability over large regions with no additional sampling effort. Although models were constrained to include only variables available from the list of those measured using the FIA protocol, we did not find this to be a shortcoming. The model makes it possible to compare average resting habitat suitability values before and after forest management treatments, among administrative units, across regions and over time. Considering hundreds of plot estimates as a sample of habitat conditions over large spatial scales can bring a broad perspective, at high resolution, and efficiency to the assessment and monitoring of wildlife habitat.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Nitrogen transformation from three soil organic amendments in a sandy soil : Stickstoff-Freisetzung aus drei organischen Materialien in einem sandigen Boden AN - 20637296; 9376886 AB - A sandy soil was amended with various rates (20 - 320 g air-dry weight basis of the amendments per kg of air-dry soil) of chicken manure (CM), sewage sludge (SS), and incinerated sewage sludge (ISS) and incubated for 100 days in a greenhouse at 15% (wt/wt) soil water content. At the beginning of incubation, NH4-N concentrations varied from 50 - 280 mg kg-1 in the CM amended soil with negligible amounts of NO3-N. Subsequently, the concentration of NH4-N decreased while that of NO3-N increased rapidly. In soil amended with SS at 20 - 80 g kg-1 rates, the NO3-N concentration increased sharply during the first 20 days, followed by a slow rate of increase over the rest of the incubation period. However, at a 160 g kg-1 SS rate, there were three distinct phases of NO3-N release which lasted for160 days. In the ISS amended soil, the nitrification process was completed during the initial 30 days, and the concentrations of NH4-N and NO3-N were lower than those for the other treatments. The mineralized N across different rates accounted for 20 - 36%, 16 - 40%, and 26 - 50% of the total N applied as CM, SS, and ISS, respectively.

We examine how the elimination of all agricultural policy distortions in all trading countries might influence agricultural production decisions and subsequently affect environmental quality in the United States. The estimated changes in U.S. agricultural production under the ambitious assumption of full agricultural trade liberalization are well within the bounds of average annual variation for agricultural commodity production (Fig. 2). In this context, our results suggest that, for the United States as a whole, environmental impacts stemming from such hypothesized trade shocks would also fall within the average annual variation. This generalization aside, we note that the estimated changes in commodity production and subsequent environmental impacts are not uniform across the landscape, with increases in agricultural production and the environmental indicators in some regions or sectors and decreases in others.

Bacillus mojavensis, an endophytic species that has a phenotypic similarity to B. subtilis, has the potential for use as an endophytic biocontrol agent in maize. Very little information is available on the extent of maize colonization and growth patterns of bacterial endophytes in plants. To understand the interaction between B. mojavensis and maize, several strains of the bacterium were transformed with the genes for different Green Fluorescent Proteins (GFP) in order to study this species growth and colonization of maize. PSG1154, PSG1156, PSG1192, PSG1193, PICFP and PIYFP were used to transform B. mojavensis strains using modified transformation protocols. Transformations were verified by microscopy and amylase deficiency, based on incorporation of plasmids through recombination with the amylase gene. Furthermore, the in planta expression was measured in maize seedling roots. To our knowledge this is the first report for the first successful transformation of this species with reporter genes.

The sequence of the PCR product was related to, but clearly distinct from characterized carlaviruses. Upstream regions were cloned using a combination of virus-specific primers, and degenerate primers designed from conserved carlavirus amino acid sequences. About 5 kb of the 3' end of the genome has been cloned, and extension to the 5'-end continues. BLAST analysis of the partial replicase (RdRp) protein; triple gene block proteins TGBp1, TGBp2, TGBp3; the coat protein (CP); and ORF 6 protein reveal greatest similarity (less than 70% amino acid identity) to those of Chrysanthemum virus B (CVB), CVB; CVB, Helenium virus S, CVB, and Garlic latent virus respectively. Assays with antisera against seven characterized carlaviruses revealed no cross-reactions. The 'WP carlavirus' was distinct from a novel carlavirus from Phlox stolonifera by sequence, host range, and lack of serological relationship. Local infection of several species by mechanical transmission of the 'WP carlavirus', and systemic infection of foxglove and snapdragon, was confirmed by virus-specific PCR yielding a 919 bp product. Phlox WP source plants were also infected with an unknown potyvirus, detected by group-specific PCR and ELISA.

For cereal rust diseases, such measurements are commonly based on visual ratings of disease reactions which are subjective and dependent on the skill of raters. This study compared a new quantitative (q) assay for estimating fungal development using q-PCR to visual and digital assessments of oat crown rust resistance in the Ogle/TAM O-301 (OT) mapping population. Parents and 136 OT recombinant inbred lines were evaluated in the greenhouse and field using each assessment method. Data were used to map a major gene from the cultivar Ogle and detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) contributed by Ogle and TAM O-301. All three assessment methods positioned the major gene from Ogle on linkage group OT6. Data from the q-PCR assay allowed more precise mapping of the major gene and identified QTL conferred by TAM O-301 on OT32 and OT2. Neither of the QTL were detected by digital assessment and only the QTL on OT32 was detectable using data from visual ratings. Overall, using q-PCR to precisely phenotype oat crown rust reactions in two environments provided an enhanced means of dissecting resistance in the OT mapping population. Similar methods should be applicable to the study of other cereal rust pathosystems.

Infection of pear plants by the phytoplasma can result in heavy fruit loss and even plant death. To mitigate the phytoplasmal disease, we intend to develop genetically engineered pear plants that will produce and deliver antimicrobial peptides specifically to sieve elements where phytoplasma cells reside. With our new and improved pear transformation and regeneration protocols, we generated transgenic pear lines that bear a beta-glucuronidase reporter gene (uidA) and a synthetic antimicrobial gene (sap) under the control of the promoter of the Arabidopsis sucrose-H super(+) symporter gene (AtSUC2). Polymerase chain reaction and DNA gel blot analyses confirmed the integration of the foreign genes into transgenic pear lines. Western blot analyses indicated that the foreign genes were expressed in leaf and root tissues. Histological GUS assays demonstrated that the beta-glucuronidase reporter gene was expressed specifically in phloem tissues of leaves, petioles, and roots of transgenic plants.

Traditionally, a limited number of synapomorphic characters and incomplete life-cycle and host-specificity data have hampered phylogenetic inference within the Uredinales. The application of modern molecular characters to rust systematics has been limited, and current contradictions, especially in the deeper nodes, have not yet been resolved. In this study, two nuclear rDNA genes (18S and 28S) were examined across the breadth of the Uredinales to resolve some systematic conflicts and provide a framework for further studies of the group. Three suborders of rusts are recovered. Of the 13 rust families most widely accepted, 8 are supported in full or in part (Coleosporiaceae, Melampsoraceae, Mikronegeriaceae, Phakopsoraceae p.p., Phragmidiaceae, Pileolariaceae, Pucciniaceae, Raveneliaceae), 3 are redundant (Cronartiaceae, Pucciniastraceae, Pucciniosiraceae), and the status of 2 (Chaconiaceae, Uropyxidaceae) could not be resolved. The Mikronegeriaceae and Caeoma torreyae are the most basal rusts sampled. It is concluded that morphology alone is a poor predictor of rust relationships at most levels. Host selection, on the other hand, has played a significant role in rust evolution.

Soil actinomycetes promote plant growth and possess antimicrobial properties against various plant pathogens. One hundred non plant pathogenic streptomycetes from diverse geographic locations in the were screened in vitro for antagonism to fungal (R. solani AG-4, and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. gladioli) and bacterial (Ralstonia solanacearum and Xanthomonus campestris) plant pathogens. Some streptomycetes were anti-fungal, some anti-bacterial, and others were both anti-fungal and anti-bacterial. Antagonistic specialization was noted for both anti-fungal and anti-bacterial streptomycetes. Most anti-fungal streptomycetes came from Alaska or north-eastern states, while most anti-bacterial streptomycetes came from north-western states. The ability to hydrolyze chitin has been correlated with antifungal properties, but not all anti-fungal streptomycetes were efficient chitinase producers in plate assays, and some high chitinase producers were not anti-fungal in a dual-culture bioassay. The biocontrol potential of chitinolytic and antibiotic producing streptomycetes will be investigated for control of R. solani on selected ornamental and vegetable plants in the greenhouse.

G. zeae can produce both ascospores (sexual spores) and macroconidia (asexual spores) during head blight epidemics, but epidemics have been correlated with ascospore production. Previously, we manipulated the mating type (MAT1) locus to generate MAT-deletion strains that lack ascospores and MAT-complemented strains that regained ascospore production. Here, we combined molecular and ecological approaches by conducting experiments with the MAT-deletion and complemented strains under conditions that mimic natural epidemics. Fungal-infected pieces of maize stalks were incubated in the laboratory until perithecia with ascospores developed, then placed in wheat plots just before and at flowering. In four field tests, genetically-modified strains were recovered from wheat seeds harvested from treated plots. In field tests in Illinois in 2002 and Indiana in 2003, levels of head blight were low, as measured by seed yield and trichothecene contamination. In Illinois in 2001 and 2003, however, significant head blight epidemics did occur, but only in plots treated with ascospore-producing strains. This approach provides new evidence that ascospores can play a critical role in epidemics in agricultural fields.

More recently, soybean rust was identified for the first time in the continental U.S. in November 2004. While no known rust resistance exists in commercially available U.S. soybean cultivars, four independent resistance genes (Rpp1-Rpp4) have been described that recognize specific rust isolates. A soybean-rust cDNA library enriched for resistance-related transcripts was constructed using suppressive subtractive hybridization (SSH) to identify soybean genes that are expressed in the Rpp1 resistant reaction. Results showed an enrichment of soybean cDNA clones that were placed into functional categories of cell rescue/defense/stress (6%), cellular transport (11%), protein fate (7%), and others. Gene expression was compared between Rpp1 resistant and susceptible rust interactions using a 7883 soybean cDNA clone microarray and the Affymetrix Soybean Genome Chip. Unregulated clones with similarity to peroxidases and lipoxygenases were prevalent, as were putative Bax inhibitors. Down-regulated cDNA clones included those with similarity to cell wall-associated proteins such as extensins, proline-rich proteins and xyloglucan endotransglycosylases. A comparison of the results from both microarrays will be presented.

Oligonucleotides, as well as PCR products from genes in the O antigen gene clusters of E. coli serogroups O7, O104, O111, and O157 were spotted onto glass slides. This was followed by hybridization with labeled long PCR products of the entire O antigen gene clusters of these serogroups.

Medicated feed containing antibiotics is one management approach that catfish producers use in the treatment of bacterial diseases. However, the future use of all types of medicated feed in catfish aquaculture is uncertain. To discover effective alternatives to antibiotics, a rapid 96-well microplate bioassay utilizing E. ictaluri and F. columnare to evaluate natural compounds and extracts was developed. In this bioassay, bacterial growth is determined by absorbance measurements of microplate wells after 24 h incubation and then confirmed by detecting cell viability after the addition of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide with additional incubation for 24 h. The minimum inhibitory concentration, minimum bactericidal concentration and 50% inhibition concentration (IC50) are determined by graphing the absorbance data. The 24 h IC50 results of test compounds are compared with the 24 h IC50 results of the drug controls oxytetracycline and florfenicol. Among the antibiotics evaluated, doxycycline and tetracycline appear more effective against E. ictaluri and F. columnare than either drug control. This bioassay is rapid, reproducible and economical for evaluating a large number of compounds and extracts.

The biphasic system was composed of 96-well microtiter plates containing Campy-Line agar prepared 2 x for all ingredients except for 1 x agar (0.1 mL per well). Samples were prepared in either twofold or fivefold dilution series across separate 96-well plates and directly transferred (0.1 mL) to the agar-containing microtiter plates to create the biphasic system. Biphasic plates were incubated for up to 48 h at 42C either aerobically or microaerobically in a gas mixture of 5% O[sub]2, 10% CO[sub]2 and 85% N[sub]2. Campylobacter was recovered in the aerobically incubated biphasic plates; however, significantly greater Campylobacter recovery was obtained in the biphasic plates incubated microaerobically (P < 0.05). Significantly higher numbers of injured campylobacters from chicken carcass rinse samples were recovered by the biphasic method compared with conventional direct plating techniques (P < 0.05).

Our research objective was to develop a competitive immunoassay using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor for the detection of SEA in raw eggs. Homogenized raw eggs were spiked with SEA and clarified by centrifugation at 14,989 x g. Anti-SEA was added to aliquots of the egg supernatants allowing SEA to bind with anti-SEA. The bound complex was separated from the free immunoglobulin G (IgG) by centrifugation. The supernatant was automatically sampled and injected over the SEA sensor surface of the SPR system. The IgG-bound response units were plotted against spiked SEA concentration. SEA was detected in whole egg at 1-40 ng-mL (ppb). The biosensor analysis including the sensor regeneration was 15 min per sample in an automated system. This biosensor assay can be utilized for SEA detection in liquid eggs.

A 4 x 2 factoral design was used to evaluate 4 stocking rates (3.0, 4.0, 5.0, and 6.0 steers/ ha) with or without steroidal implants (200 mg of progesterone + 20 mg of estradiol benzoate). Treatment combinations were randomly assigned to eight 1-ha pastures of E+ Kentucky-31 tall fescue (i.e., treatments were not replicated). Treatment effects were analyzed for ADG, total BW gain per hectare, forage availability, and hair coat ratings. At the conclusion of grazing in the second year (22 June), steers were placed on a bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] pasture, and rectal temperatures and serum prolactin concentrations were monitored for 10 d to assess carryover effects of stocking rate and steroidal implants on recovery from toxicosis-related heat stress. Forage availability differed (P 0.10). There was an implant x stocking rate interaction (P <0.05) on ADG. Differences between the slopes in the regression equations indicated that ADG responded to implantation when stocking rates were low, but the response diminished as stocking rate increased. Stocking rate did not influence (P = 0.89) postgraze rectal temperature, but the regression intercept for implanted steers was 0.4 degree C greater (P <0.05) than for nonimplanted steers, and the difference was consistent across the entire 10-d fescue-free grazing period. Concentrations of prolactin increased during the 10-d fescue-free grazing period, but trends differed due to an implantation x stocking rate interaction (P <0.05). Results indicate that implantation with progesterone + estradiol benzoate increases ADG with lower stocking rates, but the effect diminishes with increased grazing intensity. Implantation with steroid hormones increased rectal temperatures, but during a fescue-free grazing period rectal temperatures and serum prolactins for implanted and nonimplanted steers returned to values indicative of a stable and healthy status in a 192- to 240-h (i.e., an 8- to 10-d) period. However, because the treatments used in this study were not replicated, these observations need to be confirmed with replicated studies.

It is caused by Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) and is vectored by the plasmodiophorid Polymyxa betae. The disease can only be controlled effectively by the use of resistant cultivars. In 2003, the resistance-breaking (RB) isolates of BNYVV were identified in the Imperial Valley of California. These isolates do not contain RNA-5 as determined by RT-PCR. From the banding patterns of single-strand conformation polymorphism and sequence analyses we concluded that the RB BNYVV isolates had likely evolved from the original existing A-type. Rhizomania infested sugar beet fields throughout the United States were surveyed in 2004-2005. Our soil survey indicated that the RB isolates not only existed in California but also in Colorado, Idaho, Minnesota, Nebraska, and Oregon. Analyses of the deduced amino acid sequence of coat protein and P-25 protein of RB BNYVV isolates revealed the high percentage of identity with non-RB BNYVV isolates (99.9% and >98.0% respectively). The variable amino acids in P-25 protein were located at the residues of 67 and 68. In the United States, the two amino acids found in the non-RB isolates were unique (AC), whereas the RB isolates were variable (AF, AL, SY, VC, VL, or AC). In order to prove that the 67 and 68 amino acid changes in P-25 protein cause the resistance-breaking, the infectious clones will be needed to draw conclusions.

Both pathogens were listed as plant bio-threat agents in 2002 Agricultural Bioterrorism Protection Act. CVC and HLB are severely affecting citrus production in tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. To effectively prevent serious economic losses, ensure a safe and sustainable agriculture, highly sensitive and specific detection tools are needed for early and accurate detection of the pathogens. We outline here a strategy for the generation of multiplex Taq-Man PCR assays that were used to monitor both Xf-CVC and CL-HLB levels in a single assay. We developed a bioinformatics pipeline to select targeted loci for high quality and specificity primer and probe designs. Specificities were validated by in silico BLAST and PCR tests with citrus-associated pathogens and host DNAs. We refined our nucleic acid extraction procedures for reliable clinical sample assays. The multiplex assay system directly measures the absolute number of pathogen copies in clinic samples.

Empirical evidence indicates that in many cases this assumption may not be true. A series of simple and general epidemiology models were used to determine how differences in birth and death rates of vectors based on their infectivity status influence disease dynamics. With unequal death rates of pathogen-free and inoculative vectors, the death rate of pathogen-free vectors was more important in determining total vector density than the death rate of inoculative vectors. Nonetheless, increases in the death rate of pathogen-free or inoculative vectors reduced the proportion of plants infected. With unequal birth rates, variation in the birth rate of inoculative vectors had little influence on the proportion of plants infected provided that the birth rate of pathogen-free vectors was much greater than their death rate. However, when the birth rate of pathogen-free vectors was only slightly greater than their death rate, large increases in the birth rate of inoculative vectors increased total vector density and in turn the proportion of plants infected. The results indicate that assumptions about the birth and death rates of vectors based on infectivity status can alter expected level of disease incidence.

Detection of X. fastidiosa is difficult due to low concentrations of the bacteria in insects and asymptomatic plant tissue, and non-uniform distribution in infected plants. A dual purpose conventional PCR and quantitative PCR (TaqMan registered ) system was developed for the generic detection of X.fastidiosa strains. Primers HL5 and HL6, designed to amplify a unique region common to the sequenced genomes of four Xylella strains, amplified a 221 bp fragment from strains associated with Pierce's disease of grapes, almond leaf scorch, and oleander leaf scorch disease and from DNA from an Xf strain associated with citrus variegated chlorosis. Standard curves were obtained using concentrations of Xylella ranging from 5 to 10 super(5) cells per reaction in water and grape extracts and 10-10 super(5) cells in insect DNA. Regression curves were similar, with correlation coefficients of r super(2) > 0.97. In quantitative PCR, C sub(t) values ranged between 20 and 36 cycles for 5-10 super(5) bacterial cells per reaction. No amplicons were obtained with several non-Xf bacterial strains tested including related plant pathogenic, grape endophytic bacteria and endosymbiotic bacteria isolated from glassy-winged sharpshooters. The method was evaluated for clinical diagnosis of Xf in grapes, almonds and insect vectors. The procedure described is reliable for detection of the pathogen with a high degree of sensitivity and specificity.

The packages were processed to an internal temperature of 71.1 degree C, ice chilled and stored at various temperatures. The total C. perfringens population was determined by plating diluted samples on tryptose-sulfite- cycloserine agar followed by anaerobic incubation for 48 h at 37 degree C. At 19 degree C, C. perfringens levels were consistently about 2.5 log sub(10) CFU/g until 9.5 h regardless of the presence or absence of Citricidal[registered]. However, storage of the unsupplemented marinated chicken samples and those with 50 or 100 ppm Citricidal[registered] samples at 25 degree C for more than 6 h resulted in rapid growth of C. perfringens, exhibiting 2-3 log sub(10) CFU/g increase at 7 h. Citricidal[registered] at 200 ppm significantly (p - 0.05) reduced the growth of C. perfringens at both 19 and 25 degree C. The D-values obtained at 90 degree C were significantly decreased (p - 0.05) from 14.07 (no Citricidal[registered]) to 9.20 min (200 ppm Citricidal[registered]). Supplementing marinated chicken products with Citricidal[registered] and the temperature abuses had no consistent effect on color, shear force or lipid oxidation. However, the organism may grow to unsafe levels if sous-vide products are poorly handled or temperature abused for a relatively long period. An extra degree of safety may be assured in such products by supplementation with 100 or 200 ppm Citricidal[registered]. Industrial relevance: Since temperature abuse is a common occurrence during trasportation, distribution, storage or handling in grocery stores or by consumers, an extra degree of safety may be assured in marinated chicken products by supplementation 100-200 ppm Citricidal[registered]. In such products, the temperature abuse should not have any consistent effect on color, shear force or lipid oxidation of products.

In mixed sugar (glucose, xylose, galactose, and arabinose) fermentation, the culture preferred glucose and arabinose over galactose and xylose. Under the experimental conditions, CFAX (60 g/L) was not fermented until either 5 g/L xylose or glucose plus xylanase enzyme were added to support initial growth and fermentation. In this system, C. acetobutylicum produced 9.60 g/L ABE from CFAX and xylose. This experiment resulted in a yield and productivity of 0.41 and 0.20 g/L times h, respectively. In the integrated hydrolysis, fermentation, and recovery process, 60 g/L CFAX and 5 g/L xylose produced 24.67 g/L ABE and resulted in a higher yield (0.44) and a higher productivity (0.47 g/L times h). CFAX was hydrolyzed by xylan-hydrolyzing enzymes, and ABE were recovered by gas stripping. This investigation demonstrated that integration of hydrolysis of CFAX, fermentation to ABE, and recovery of ABE in a single system is an economically attractive process. It is suggested that the culture be further developed to hydrolyze CFAX and utilize all xylan sugars simultaneously. This would further increase productivity of the reactor.

The objective of this laboratory experiment was to compare the mineralisation of atrazine and metolachlor with that of their respective metabolites in VFS and cultivated soil. With the exception of total bacteria, propagule density of the microbial groups, endogenous soil enzymes and microbial diversity were higher in the VFS soil. This correlated with increased mineralisation of metolachlor and its metabolites in the VFS soil and indicates potential for VFS to curtail the subsequent transport of these compounds. In contrast, the mineralisation of atrazine and the majority of its metabolites was substantially reduced in VFS soil relative to cultivated soil. Consequently, the potential for subsequent transport of atrazine and many of its metabolites may be greater in VFS soil than in cultivated soil if reduced mineralisation is not offset by increased sorption in the VFS.

DMDS has zero ozone depletion potential and has a complex mode of action that is causing mitochondrial malfunction and inhibition of cytochrome oxidase. Two on-farm field trials were conducted to evaluate DMDS for production of ornamental cockscomb (Celosia argentea var. cristata). Treatments included methyl bromide:chloropicrin (98:2 at 448 kg/ha), DMDS (785 kg/ha), and an untreated check. DMDS provided control of Pythium root rol and root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.), based on root gall ratings, equivalent to methyl bromide and significantly reduced root-knot juveniles in the soil. Marketable yields from this treatment were equivalent to that of methyl bromide. In microplots, control of the tomato wilt pathogen, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici with DMDS treatments was greatest closest to the point of fumigant injection. There was a significant treatment by depth interaction; at the 5 and 15 cm depths, DMDS treatments were similar to the untreated check, but at the 25 cm depth, inoculum survival was significantly reduced by DMDS treatment. Depth did not impact methyl bromide or chloropicrin efficacy.

Seed from field grown plants were assessed for colonization by Alternaria and Fusarium spp. The results suggest that the bmr lines do not have increased susceptibility to colonization by Alternaria spp. Significantly fewer colonies of Fusarium spp., including members of Fusarium moniliforme sensu lato, were recovered from seeds of bmr lines, as compared with respective wild-type lines, when two genetic backgrounds were tested. That the bmr trait might enable increased resistance was further supported by greenhouse experiments in which peduncles of developing heads were inoculated with a virulent F. moniliforme isolate. Mean lesion measurements on bmr lines were significantly lower than those resulting from inoculations on wild-type lines. Analysis of near isogenic lines revealed that mean lesion lengths on bmr lines were significantly less than those produced on wild-type counterparts in 4 of the 6 genetic backgrounds. These results suggest that reduced lignin lines may have increased resistance to Fusarium spp. JF - Phytopathology AU - Funnell, D L AU - Pedersen, J F AD - USDA-ARS, Grain, Forage and Bioenergy Research, Lincoln, NE, USA Y1 - 2006/06// PY - 2006 DA - Jun 2006 SP - 1 PB - American Phytopathological Society, 3340 Pilot Knob Road St. Paul MN 55121-2097 USA, [URL:http://www.apsnet.org/phyto/top.asp] VL - 96 IS - 6 SN - 0031-949X, 0031-949X KW - Genetics Abstracts; Microbiology Abstracts C: Algology, Mycology & Protozoology; Microbiology Abstracts A: Industrial & Applied Microbiology; Biotechnology and Bioengineering Abstracts KW - Fusarium KW - Seeds KW - Conferences KW - Greenhouses KW - Fusarium moniliforme KW - Heads KW - Colonization KW - Colonies KW - Alternaria KW - Lignin KW - Inoculation KW - Grain KW - Sorghum KW - W 30925:Genetic Engineering KW - A 01360:Plant Diseases KW - G 07800:Plants and Algae KW - K 03420:Plant Diseases UR - http://libproxy.lib.unc.edu/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/19848522?accountid=14244 L2 - http://vb3lk7eb4t.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQ%3Abiotechresearch&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:journal&rft.genre=conference&rft.jtitle=Phytopathology&rft.atitle=Potential+increased+resistance+to+Fusarium+species+in+sorghum+lines+genetically+modified+for+reduced+lignin+content&rft.au=Funnell%2C+D+L%3BPedersen%2C+J+F&rft.aulast=Funnell&rft.aufirst=D&rft.date=2006-06-01&rft.volume=96&rft.issue=6&rft.spage=S37&rft.isbn=&rft.btitle=&rft.title=Phytopathology&rft.issn=0031949X&rft_id=info:doi/ LA - English DB - ProQuest Environmental Science Collection N1 - Date revised - 2007-07-01 N1 - Last updated - 2015-04-01 N1 - SubjectsTermNotLitGenreText - Heads; Colonization; Colonies; Seeds; Conferences; Lignin; Grain; Inoculation; Greenhouses; Fusarium moniliforme; Fusarium; Alternaria; Sorghum ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Antimicrobial activity of pyrrocidines from Acremonium zeae against endophytes and pathogens of maize AN - 19848442; 6971722 AB - Acremonium zeae is recognized as a protective endophyte of maize which augments host defenses against microbial pathogens causing seedling blights and stalk rots. A. zeae produces pyrrocidines A and B, polyketide-amino acid-derived antibiotics which have been shown to display significant in vitro activity (M.I.C.) against Aspergillus flavus and Fusarium verticillioides, with pyrrocidine A being more active than B. Pyrrocidine A revealed potent antibiotic activity against major stalk and ear rot pathogens of maize Fusarium graminearum, Stenocarpella (Diplodia) maydis, and kernel rotting fungal pathogens including Alternaria alternata, Cladosporium cladosporioides, Curvularia lunata, and Nigrospora oryzae. Mycoparasites living asymptomatically within healthy maize tissues showed little sensitivity to pyrrocidines. Pyrrocidines also exhibit potent antibiotic activity against Bacillus mojaviense, Pseudomonas fluorescens, bacterial endophytes applied as biocontrol agents, and Clavibacter michiganense subsp. Nebraskense, causal agent of Goss's bacterial wilt, yet were ineffective against the wilt-producing bacterium, Pantoea stewanii. A. zeae grows systemically within maize and thus represents a potential confounding variable in variety trials for disease resistance.

Morphological and developmental variation is known between populations of U.S. common crupina. Two accessions ('A', Modoc Co., Calif.; and 'C', Lake Chelan, Wash.), have a flat rosettes, and two others ('B', Salmon River, Idaho; and 'D', Sonoma Co., Calif.) have upright rosettes. Similarity of 'A' and 'C' and of 'B' and 'D' has been noted also for chlorophyll content, seed size, and flowering. Plants of each accession were inoculated with 104 urediniospores/ml, given dew at 18 degree C for 48 hr (dark, with one 8 hr light period), and placed in a 20 degree C greenhouse for symptom development. Accession 'A' developed a few small pustules with necrotic rings; 'B' developed a few small pustules and infected leaves became necrotic and died; 'C' developed many large pustules with heavy sporulation and infected leaves senesced pre-maturely; and symptoms on 'D' were similar to those of 'B'. Individual leaves either were killed or they produced normal pustules, although less disease developed on 'A' than on 'C'. Reaction types correlated with other characteristics distinguishing these accessions.

Armillaria root disease, caused by Armillaria ostoyae, is arguably the most common forest disease in the Black Hills, South Dakota. We designed a field study to examine the effects of fire on the potential spread of this pathogen in ponderosa pine Pinus ponderosa stands, and to test methods of quantifying and detecting Armillaria. Five plots were established in an area of the Black Hills National Forest that burned 3 years previous to this study. Each plot consisted of four subplots that varied in fire intensity (i.e., low, medium, and high fire intensity, and unburned). Buried ponderosa pine and aspen wood blocks were compared as Armillaria traps in each of the subplots (1,200 total blocks). The proportion of colonized blocks increased with increasing fire intensity for each trap species (P < 0.001), and ponderosa pine blocks attracted more Armillaria than aspen blocks (e.g., 77% vs. 63% colonization in high fire intensity plots). This Armillaria trap method offers a simple and relatively inexpensive means of detecting and quantifying this important pathogen.

Random mutagenesis provides one approach for identifying recessive alleles in a cultivable background, and mutant populations can be screened for phenotypes (forward genetics) and for allelic mutations in sequences (reverse genetics). A pipeline for creating and analyzing EMS-generated mutants in grapevine was designed and implemented in a Chardonnay background. Three thousand selfed, segregating (M2) mutant populations were generated and either screened for resistance to foliar fungal pathogens or deposited in a grapevine TILLING (Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes) genetic stock collection. Individual seedlings resistant to powdery mildew or downy mildew have been identified. A pilot TILLING project has been conducted to develop standard protocols for screening sequences in grapevine. The genetic stocks will be available for TILLING, providing a platform for functional genomics in grapevine.

CT and glyphosate were applied in all pairwise combinations of 0.125, 0.25, 0.50, and 1.0 x 10 super(7) spores/ml and 0.15, 0.30, 0.60, and 1.2 kg/ha, respectively. Weed control was enhanced at the two lowest fungus and herbicide rates when fungal spores were applied after glyphosate treatment. Application of the fungus in combination with or prior to glyphosate >0.60 kg/ha resulted in reduced weed control regardless of inoculum concentration. At the highest glyphosate rates weeds were controlled by the herbicide alone. These results suggest the possibility to attain additive or synergistic herbicide effects on C. truncatum control of hemp sesbania when glyphosate is applied at low rates.

In this study, four grapevine genotypes with different levels of resistance were analyzed microscopically for the mechanism of resistance. The proportion of conidia forming appressoria and singular or multiple secondary hyphae at 12, 36, and 60 hours post-inoculation was recorded along with the presence of a visible host response. Infection dynamics on the second and fourth expanded leaves were analyzed and revealed various degrees of resistance and ontogenic resistance. Subsequently, haustoria were visualized using confocal microscopy to determine whether resistance or ontogenic resistance prevented penetration. Colonization at 8 days post-inoculation corresponded to cellular resistance phenotypes. This quantitative approach could aid the detection of quantitative loci and characterization of qualitative prehaustorial, hypersensitive, and ontogenic resistance.

Because insecticides do not effectively control primary infection by thrips immigrating into crop fields, we are investigating alternatives that would be effective and environmentally non-disruptive. We conducted a field trial to determine the effects of three plant essential oils, geraniol, lemongrass oil and tea tree oil as natural plant derived chemical repellent to thrips, and kaolin based particle films on the incidence of tomato spotted wilt and population dynamics of thrips. Plant essential oils were applied at 250 ppm twice per week and were compared with a grower standard insecticide treatment and an untreated control. All treatments were applied with and without kaolin, in a 5 x 2 factorial design. When combined with kaolin, the three plant essential oils controlled adult thrips and the incidence of tomato spotted wilt as well as the grower standard treatment. Kaolin significantly increased yield. When applied with kaolin, the plant essential oils produced yields similar to the grower standard. Kaolin may reduce the volatility of the oils, thus increasing their repellency to thrips. These findings indicate that naturally occurring products, such as plant essential oils and particle films, could be used successfully to reduce insecticide use on tomatoes.

More than 96% of the PST isolates belonged to the group of races (e.g. PST-78, PST-98, and PST-100) with virulences to Yr8, Yr9, and other resistance genes, which caused widespread stripe rust epidemics in the U.S. from 2000 to 2005. PST-100 (virulent on Lemhi, Heines VII, Produra, Yamhill, Stephens, Lee, Fielder, Express, Yr8-AVS, Yr9-AVS, Clement, and Compair), PST-102 (the same as PST-100 plus virulence on Tres), and PST-115 (the same as PST-102 plus virulence on Paha) were the most predominant races, accounting for 33.4%, 27.0%, and 14.4% of the total PST isolates, respectively. PST-116 (a new race with the same virulence of PST-115 plus virulence on Moro) increased rapidly in the late growing season in the Pacific Northwest. Race PSH-56 (virulent to Topper, Hiproly, Abed Binder 12, and Bancroft) was the most predominant, accounting for 26.7% of the PSH isolates.

We pursued a novel tactic for control of the disease with Vesta (BIO, Sonoma, CA), a soil inoculant containing a mixture of antagonistic bacteria. Vesta was applied via drip-irrigation (47 liters/ha at budbreak and bloom, 19 liters/ha at 15% and 85% veraison) to vinerows in three blocks of a Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard for two years. We measured yield, growth, nutrition, and juice quality of 12 healthy and 12 symptomatic vines in treated and nontreated sections of each block. Symptomatic vines treated with Vesta had significantly higher cluster weights (109.63 g) that were comparable to those of healthy vines (122.09 g), which shows that Vesta can restore cluster weights to normal levels, an important factor for wine quality. Vesta had no stimulatory effect on healthy vines, suggesting that its efficacy is a function of its effects on the pathogen. Vesta and bacteria cultured from it (e.g., Pseudomonas aeruginosa) on yeast malt extract agar significantly inhibited the pathogen in inhibition assays. Our results indicate that Vesta is therapeutic to infected vines and that antagonistic bacteria may contribute to its efficacy. Studies are underway to identify additional antagonistic bacteria in Vesta and to characterize their modes of action.

There is evidence that X. fastidiosa interacts with endophytic bacteria present in the xylem of sweet orange, and that these interactions, particularly with Methylobacterium mesophilicum, may affect disease progress. However, these interactions cannot be evaluated in detail until efficient methods for detection and enumeration of these bacteria in planta are developed. We have previously developed standard and quantitative PCR-based assays specific for X. fastidiosa using the LightCycler(R) system [Li, W.B., Pria Jr., L.P.M.W.D., X. Qin, and J.S. Hartung, 2003.Presence of Xylella fastidiosa in sweet orange fruit and seeds and its transmission to seedlings. Phytopathology 93:953-958.], and now report the development of both standard and quantitative PCR assays for M. mesophilicum. The assays are specific for M. mesophilicum and do not amplify DNA from other species of Methylobacterium or other bacteria commonly associated with citrus or plant tissue. Other bacteria tested included Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens, Pantoea agglomerans, Enterobacter cloacae, Bacillus sp., X. fastidiosa, Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri, and Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus. We have demonstrated that with these methods we can quantitatively monitor the colonization of xylem by M. mesophilicum during the course of disease development in plants artificially inoculated with both bacteria.

These tests supplement an earlier, extensive host range determination that established P. jaceae from YST as generally host specific and potentially useful for biological control. The additional research was in response to potential hazards identified in an earlier study, changes in safflower cultivars, and concern that P. jaceae might cause a safflower seedling disease similar to hypocotyl infections from infestation by Puccinia carthami teliospores. S. americana, a close relative of yellow starthistle, had not been tested previously. All tests were conducted in a containment greenhouse. Foliage of 19 Cirsium species, 11 safflower cultivars, and S. americana was inoculated with urediniospores and subjected to a 16-h dew period at 18-20 degree C. Neither the Cirsium species nor S. americana became infected after foliar inoculations. Compared to foliar infections by P. carthami from safflower in California, only minor infections developed from inoculations with P. jaceae. These were similar to infections observed in earlier studies, and it was not possible to maintain P. jaceae under optimal greenhouse conditions on safflower foliage. Quantitative teliospore inoculations with P. jaceae did not cause infection on safflower hypocotyls, even though large cankers occurred on plants inoculated with P. carthami teliospores. Clear microscopic evidence of infection also was observed in hypocotyls inoculated with P. carthami. These data suggest that native (including rare, threatened, or endangered) Cirsium spp., modern safflower cultivars, and S. americana are not likely to be adversely affected by the use of P. jaceae for biological control of YST. Results from these studies substantiate previous findings and were incorporated in a proposal for permission to use P. jaceae for YST control in California.

Spring wheat cultivars Ivan, Keene and Stoa, and breeding lines SD3746 and 97S0254-8-1, were found to be resistant to race TTKS based on seedling tests. The inheritance of resistance to race TTKS was investigated using F sub(2) and BC sub(1)F sub(2) populations of the resistant lines crossed with susceptible genotypes Chinese Spring and/or LMPG-6. The TTKS resistance in Ivan, Keene, Stoa, SD3746, and 97S0254-8-1 was controlled by a single dominant gene. F sub(2) populations of intercrosses among Keene, Stoa, SD3746, and 97S0254-8-1 did not segregate, indicating that they share the same resistance gene. F sub(2) populations of Ivan crossed with Keene, Stoa, and 97S0254-8-1 segregated for resistance and susceptibility. A linkage (with a recombination fraction of 31.5%) was detected between the resistance gene in Ivan and the resistance gene in Keene, Stoa, and 97S0254-8-1. These sources of resistance could be used to develop wheat cultivars with resistance to race TTKS.

Ni directly affects spore germination and fungal growth. Spores germinated in Ni enriched media, but at >100 ppm Ni germ tubes failed to develop. Pecan seedlings treated with a foliar spray of Ni, and 12 days later inoculated with scab spores, showed reduced lesion development as Ni concentration increased. Treatment also increased leaf Ni concentration. The developing lesions were normal, black and sporulating on check plants; however, at 50 ppm lesions were smaller in both size and number by about 50%, at 100 ppm lesions were about 25% the size of the lesions on the untreated leaf, light brown and surrounded by a yellow halo. Five cultivars, possessing different degrees of scab susceptibility, were treated with fungicide. Half of the trees of each cultivar were also treated 3 times with Ni (26 Apr, 14 June and 12 Jul). Wichita and Apache, both highly susceptible to scab, exhibited a lower scab severity on Ni treated nuts.

We examined effects of pre-inoculation treatments with phosphonate (Fosphite; J.H. Biotech; Ventura, CA) on development of the disease. Walnut trees (cv. Chandler) were planted in 2000, irrigated through microsprinklers (one 3-m-dia-pattern sprinkler per tree), and managed conventionally. In 2005, the following Fosphite treatments were applied: 1) chemigations on 29 Aug, 6 Sep, and 12 Sep (7 liters/ha during irrigation on each date); 2) foliar spray on 12 Sep (7 liters/ha by backpack air-blast sprayer); 3) a combination of treatments 1 and 2; and 4) a control (water). On 7 Oct 2005, 23 to 24 trees per treatment were wounded (1 cm super(2) of bark was removed on opposite sides of each tree trunk, 30 cm above the soil) and inoculated (mycelium of Pcit on V8 juice agar was placed in one wound; sterile V8 juice agar in the other). Two months after inoculation, the area of necrosis around each wound was determined by tracing and digital scanning. Only wounds inoculated with Pcit produced necrosis. Treatments 1, 2, and 3 reduced final necrotic areas by 41, 59, and 70%, respectively (P = 0.05). The results indicate foliar spray and chemigation treatments with phosphonate in late summer can systemically suppress disease caused by Pcit in walnut.

In addition, bioinformatic approaches were used to identify publicly available apple ESTs uniquely associated with E. amylovora infected apple or similar to Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato infected Arabidopsis ESTs. Gene silencing is being used to elucidate the role of specific candidate genes in resistance and susceptibility. Two types of RNAi plant transformation vectors designed to facilitate the evaluation of large EST populations are being evaluated: 1) those that use GATEWAY technology to facilitate the rapid generation of hairpin RNA-encoding constructs and 2) those that use a 3' untranslated region-inverted repeat to enhance sense-RNAi.

One approach towards developing virus resistance or attenuating viral infection is by expression of recombinant antibodies in plants. We are using a plant virus episomal vector based on Potato virus X to transiently express 3 single-chain antibody (scFv) fragments derived from hybridoma cell lines secreting monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) with differential specificity to isolates of CMV. It had previously been shown that some of these Mabs neutralize virus infectivity and block virus transmission by aphids, making them candidates for engineering CMV resistance in plants. We will compare our results with those of prior experiments where transgenic Nicotiana benthamiana plants expressing the scFv fragments exhibited variable degrees of disease resistance upon virus challenge.

However, considerable controversy exists concerning the involvement of toxins produced by the fungus and the number of nematode species affected. In an attempt to analyze this problem, we developed a sterile nematode in vitro system to access the interactive nature of toxins specific to this mutualistic association. The in vitro assay system developed used Pratylenchus scribneri as the target organism to determine the interactive nature of an ergot alkaloid, ergonovine, and loline, a pyrollizidine alkaloid. The in vitro assay is described along with methods for testing toxicity. The results indicate that while the ergot alkaloid is toxic to this species of nematode, there are possible potentiating effects observed when the two alkaloids are mixed, suggestive of prior observations of toxicity on specific insects.

The ground beef was inoculated with a six strain cocktail of E. coli O157:H7 at three different concentrations (10 super(3), l0 super(4) and l0 super(6) CFU/g). The following strains of E. coli O157:H7 were used in the cocktail: 3027-93, 3055-93, C7927, 43888, C9490, and green fluorescent protein-expressing E. coli O157:H7 B6-914 (GFP EC). Inoculated ground beef was wrapped in polyethylene wrap, vacuum packaged into multilayer barrier bags, heat shrunk and treated with HDP. The initial concentrations of EHEC were 1.29 x 10 super(3), 2.88 x 10 super(4), and 2.19 x l0 super(6) CFU/g. After HDP treatment, the EHEC populations were reduced (P - 0.05) to 9.12 x 10 super(2), 2.40 x 10 super(4), and 1.91 x l0 super(6) CFU/g, respectively. A similar trend was observed for GFP EC which was also enumerated from the cocktail. The GFP EC initial populations of 4.26 x l0 super(2) and 3.72 x l0 super(3) CFU/g were reduced to 3.47 x 10 super(2), and 3.09 x l0 super(3) CFU/g, respectively. Although the reduction in EHEC populations due to HDP treatment was statistically significant, the practicability of the reduction was marginal. Therefore, other hurdle parameters should be included along with the HDP treatment for more practical inactivation of EHEC in ground beef. Hydrodynamic pressure processing has been applied for many unique applications including braking of ice sheets. The authors have originally developed the method of utilizing shock waves caused by explosives for tenderization of meat and are now attempting to extend the process towards microbial inactivation. The data suggest that the treatment applied only slightly reduced the population of E. coli 0157:H7 tested and suggest to modify the process including the use of extended shock waves as well as the combination with antimicrobial agents.

Corn planting dates vary by region, and improved technology has allowed earlier planting. To evaluate the effect of planting date on mycotoxin levels in corn, 9 commercial hybrids (including Bt and non-Bt corn) were planted in Arkansas at two dates (April and May) in 2002, 2004 and 2005 and became naturally infected with Aspergillus and Fusarium species. Corn samples were assayed aflatoxins and fumonisins. In 2002, corn samples from all hybrids planted in April contained less than or equal to 12 ppb aflatoxin, while only one hybrid out of 9 planted in May yielded corn with aflatoxin >20 ppb (224 ppb). Fumonisin levels in the same 2002 samples were higher in corn planted in May (5-38 ppm), than in April (0.5-6 ppm). Of the 9 hybrids, only one (DK 687) had more fumonisin in the April planting. In 2004 and 2005, corn samples from all hybrids planted in April contained less than or equal to 20 ppb aflatoxin, while 7 hybrids out of 18 planted in May yielded corn with aflatoxin >20 ppb (26-184 ppb). Fumonisins in the same 2004 and 2005 samples ranged from 2 to 22 ppm and were not significantly different for April and May planting dates. The study observed frequent co-occurrence of both toxins in samples; planting dates did not significantly affect mycotoxin contamination. Mycotoxins in Bt-hybrids were not significantly lower than in non-Bt hybrids.

These proteins, which are exported by a type III secretion system (TTSS), have a pivotal role in host-specific nodulation. The entire TTSS of S. fredii lies within a 31-kb region that includes conserved genes that code for secretion machinery proteins, Nops, and several open reading frames (ORF) of unknown function. Identifying the functions of these ORF is essential to understand fully the role of TTSS in nodulation. Here, we report the characterization of y4xP, an ORF of previously unknown function. Southern blot analysis revealed that USDA257 contains two copies of y4xP, while a sibling, USDA191, contains a single copy. The amino acid sequence of Y4XP is homologous to both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cysteine synthase, a key enzyme in sulfur assimilation. The coding region of USDA257 y4xP under control of T7 promoter was expressed in Escherichia coli, and the recombinant protein was purified by nickel-affinity chromatography. Antibodies generated against soybean cysteine synthase cross-reacted with the recombinant protein. A nonpolar mutant of y4xP of USDA191 showed a marked reduction in cysteine synthase activity. Enzyme activity was completely restored when the mutant was complemented with a plasmid containing the y4xP sequence. Cysteine synthase activity was confined to the cell cytosol. Extracellular protein fraction from genistein-induced USDA191 showed no cysteine synthase activity. This observation indicates that cysteine synthase, which is located in the TTSS locus, is not a type III secreted protein. A nonpolar cysteine synthase mutant was able to export all the Nops to the rhizosphere, albeit in reduced amounts compared with the wild-type USDA191. Interestingly, USDA191 cysteine synthase mutant was able to initiate nodules on `McCall' soybean more efficiently than the wild-type. Our results demonstrate that y4xP encodes a cysteine synthase and inactivation of this gene enhances the ability of USDA191 to form nodules on `McCall' soybean by regulating Nops production.

The EPPO lists X. fragariae as an A2 quarantine pathogen; nurseries wishing to export plants to European countries must maintain certain phytosanitary standards. The potential of hot water treatment for disinfesting or killing viable cells was determined by dispensing 1 ml aliquots for each of 4 representative isolates of X. fragariae in microcentrifuge tubes and submerging tubes in water heated to 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, and 56 degree C for 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, 120, 240, 360 and 480 min. Bacteria were serially diluted to determine the proportion surviving heat treatment. Plants of the varieties Camarosa and Diamante were subjected to a similar range of treatments to test their sensitivity to heat; plants were potted and rated for growth characteristics. Bacteria exposed to 56 and 52 degree C were killed completely after 15 and 60 min exposure, respectively; both treatments killed plants. Results showed that bacteria exposed to 44 degree C for 240 min or 48 degree C for 120 min reduced populations greater than 95%. The same treatments minimally affected vegetative growth of plants, but flowering was adversely affected. However, hot water treatment is intended for nursery production, where flowering is unimportant.

The purpose was to develop aflatoxin-resistant maize inbreds and identify markers therein for use in marker-assisted breeding. Parental materials for the initial crosses were aflatoxin-resistant inbreds from the and ear rot-resistant inbreds from Central and West Africa that showed potential for aflatoxin-resistance in the laboratory kernel screening assay (KSA). Crosses between and IITA parents generated materials with 75% temperate or 50% tropical backgrounds. Selfing and selecting based on agronomic features and on resistance to foliar and ear diseases occurred until the S sub(4) stage. S sub(4) lines and above have been tested for aflatoxin accumulation using the KSA and field trials. Comparative proteomics was employed to identify resistance-associated proteins/corresponding genes towards the aim of marker identification. A number of S sub(6) and S sub(7) lines of both backgrounds are undergoing resistance confirmation trials and being evaluated for agronomic features. Lines showing good resistance and agronomic traits will be released to African national programs and as sources of resistance to breeding programs. Breeding, proteomics and gene characterization results are discussed.

Merrill] planting in the northern Great Plains may reduce early crop growth and retard nitrogen (N) fixation. Application of N as starter fertilizer may increase initial growth of soybean, but may also negatively impact N fixation when environmental conditions improve. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of low rates of N applied at planting on soybean N fixation and crop growth in the northern Great Plains. A field experiment (2000-2002) was established within a two-year corn [ Zea mays (L.)] soybean rotation using a split-plot design with four replications. Whole plots were no-tillage (NT) and conventional tillage (CT) and the split plots were starter fertilizer (two sources x four rates) treatments. Nitrogen sources were either ammonium nitrate (AN) or urea (UR) each applied at 0, 8, 16, and 24 kg N ha -1 . Biomass in both 2000 and 2001 growing seasons increased significantly with increasing N rate at both growth stages (R1 and R7) and at the R1 stage in 2002. Ureide concentration and relative ureide decreased with increasing N rate at the R1 stage in all years, indicating a decrease in N fixation up to that point in crop development. This decrease in N fixation was not present at the R7 stage, but the significant increase in plant growth including yield was still present, indicating possibly that starter fertilizer can positively impact soybean production in the cool environmental conditions of the northern Great Plains. However, the positive impact on plant growth and yield is dependent on in-season environmental conditions and time of planting.

The presence of attractants produced by blood was supported by more attraction of all species to blood than water controls in the olfactometer. Females of Ae. aegypti and Cx. quinquefasciatus were more attracted to bovine blood than to avian blood, but there was no difference in Cx. nigripalpus responses. In landing assays, significantly more females of all species landed on casings with blood than on water controls. There was no difference in landing of Ae. aegypti on bovine or avian blood. However, significantly more females of Cx. quinquefasciatus and Cx. nigripalpus landed on avian blood compared to bovine blood. Blood presented in collagen casings was an effective method for evaluating in-flight attraction and landing in all three species. In the olfactometer, several individual compounds elicited attraction in all species, but none were as attractive as blood for all species. In landing assays, several organic acids and sulfides elicited landing, with Ae. aegypti responding to the greatest number of compounds. These assay methods are effective for evaluation of volatile compounds from blood, and although responses were obtained to several compounds, none were as effective as blood in the olfactometer and landing assays.

Critical to these applications have been the transfection of foreign DNA. This has been frequently done using labor intensive and cytotoxic liposome-based transfection reagents. In the current study we have optimized a new kind of polyethylenimine-based DNA transfection reagent on the Spodoptera frugiperda Sf9 insect cell line. A plasmid vector that transiently expresses green fluorescent protein (GFP) was effectively delivered into Sf9 cells. A transfection efficiency of 54% and cell viability of 85-90% were obtained for Sf9 cells. The developed transfection protocol has now been successfully used to transfect eight insect cell lines derived from Bombyx mori, Trichoplusia ni, Helicoverpa zea, Heliothis virescens and S. frugiperda with GFP and GUS with transfection efficiencies of at least 45%. This method provides high heterologous protein expression levels, transfection efficacy and cell viability, and could be used for transient gene expression in other lepidopteran cell lines.

We reanalyzed the study data to test for associations between contaminated flights and factors such as season, cargo type, and time of departure (night or day), and developed probabilistic models for predicting insect pest arrivals by region and pest risk levels. Significant (P < 0.05) associations were detected between contaminated flights and (1) wet season flights from Central America, (2) flights carrying plant products and clothing or fabrics, and (3) flights departing at night from the country of origin. In Monte Carlo simulations, numbers of arriving mated insect pests were greatest for cargo flights from Central America, because of great contamination rates, and South America, because of the large volume of flights from there. Few insects arrived on flights from the Caribbean, and few high-risk insects arrived from anywhere. Although the likelihood of establishment in South Florida via this pathway could not be estimated, based upon arrivals the greatest threats were posed by moderate-risk insect pests on flights from Central and South America. Simulations indicated that switching to daytime departures only reduced pest arrivals by one-third. The simplest mechanism for pathway entry that explains the associations found is that insects entered aircraft randomly but sometimes remained because of the presence of certain cargo types. Hence, contamination rates were greater during the wet season because of greater abundance locally, and on nighttime flights because of greater abundance around lighted loading operations. Empty planes probably had no pests because pests had no access to holds. Thus, the best mitigation strategies for this pathway will likely be those that exclude insects from holds or reduce the attractiveness of night loading operations. Optimizing inspections based on associations is also possible but will be less effective for regions such as South America, with high flight volumes and low contamination rates. Comparisons to other pathways indicates the potential importance of hitchhikers on cargo aircraft at MIA.

Traditionally, studies of phenotypic trade-offs involving dispersal focus on resource allocation differences between flight and reproduction. However, investments in dispersal may also result in reduced allocation to other 'third-party traits' (e.g. compensatory feeding) that are not directly associated with reproduction. Such traits remain largely uninvestigated for any phytophagous insect despite their importance for performance and survival. Using two wing-dimorphic, phloem-feeding planthoppers, Prokelisiadolus and Prokelisia marginata that differ dramatically in dispersal abilities, we sought evidence for a trade-off between investments in dispersal (flight apparatus) and ingestion capability (allocation to the esophageal musculature governing ingestion). Dispersal allows species to meet nutrient demands by moving to higher-quality resources. In contrast, enhanced investment in esophageal musculature increases ingestion capacity and allows phloem feeders to compensate for deteriorating plant nutrition on site. Our objectives were to compare differences in flight and feeding investment between P. dolus and P. marginata and between the wing forms of both species, and to compare ingestion capacity between the two species and wing forms. Morphometric and gravimetric measures of investment in flight versus feeding indicate that the sedentary P. dolus allocates more muscle mass to feeding whereas P. marginata invests more heavily in flight. Likewise, brachypters invest more in feeding and less in flight than macropters. The greater esophageal investment in P. dolus is associated with enhanced ingestion capacity compared to P. marginata. As a consequence, P. dolus is better equipped to meet on-site nutrient demands when faced with deteriorating plant quality than P. marginata, which must migrate elsewhere to do so. Notably, such third-party trade-offs place constraints on how insect herbivores cope with changing resources and set the stage for fundamental differences in population dynamics.

AN - 19465255; 7302460 AB - The era of ecosystem management for federal forest lands in the Pacific Northwest began in 1994 with the adoption of the Northwest Forest Plan. This plan was designed to maintain and restore species and ecosystems associated with late successional and old-growth forests on over 10 million ha of federal lands in Washington, Oregon and California. The plan called for implementation monitoring, effectiveness monitoring, and validation monitoring for a variety of ecological and socio-economic components. Monitoring has become a central part of management of the federal forests in the region and managers and scientists have gained considerable experience in implementing this large and complex program. The components of the monitoring plan include late-successional/old growth vegetation, northern spotted owls, marbled murrelets, aquatic habitat and social conditions. The monitoring plan is strongly based on vegetation layer created with TM satellite imagery and on a regional grid of forest inventory plots. The lessons learned from the implementation of this monitoring plan include: 1) agencies need to devote considerable resources to insure that effective monitoring will occur at broad scales; 2) aggregation of local monitoring efforts is not a substitute for a designed regional monitoring plan; 3) vegetation structure and composition, measured with satellite imagery and inventory plots, is a cost-effective, broad-scale indicator of biological diversity; 4) some species, such as threatened and endangered species, are not necessarily covered with habitat approaches and may require population monitoring; 5) our scientific understanding of monitoring components will vary widely as will the approaches to data collection and analysis; 6) monitoring requires research support to develop and test metrics and biodiversity models; 7) links of monitoring to decision-making (adaptive management) are still being forged.

Because of its nutritional fastidiousness, few biological traits of this bacterium have been reported. In this study, two ALSD strains, M12 and M23, representing A- and G-genotypes, respectively, were used to search for evidence of surface motility. With reflection contrast microscopy, we observed the presence of bacterial motility trails (MTs) on the surface of two commonly used media PW and PD3, solidified by GelRite. Strain M12 showed curved MTs on both PW and PD3 (100%). Strain M23 showed straight MTs on the two media at low frequency (0.8%), and also curved MTs on PD3 at a higher frequency (50%). The presence of MTs indicates that cells of X. fastidiosa are capable of active surface translocation during the early stages of growth on solid media. We also observed the presence of matrix rings surrounding the colonies of strain M23 during the active growing stage, which may be related to cell to cell communication.

Conjugated fatty acids, which are synthesized from phosphatidylcholine (PC)-linked substrates, accumulated in PC and phosphatidylethanolamine, and relative amounts of these fatty acids were higher in PC than in triacylglycerol (TAG) in the transgenic seeds. The highest relative amounts of conjugated fatty acids were detected in PC from seeds of soybean and A. thaliana that expressed the C. officinalis and M. charantia conjugases, where they accounted for nearly 25% of the fatty acids of this lipid class. In these seeds, >85% of the conjugated fatty acids in PC were detected in the sn-2 position, and these fatty acids were also enriched in the sn-2 position of TAG. In marked contrast to the transgenic seeds, conjugated fatty acids composed -1.5% of the fatty acids in PC from seeds of five unrelated species that naturally synthesize a variety of conjugated fatty acid isomers, including seeds that accumulate conjugated fatty acids to >80% of the total fatty acids. These results suggest that soybean and A. thaliana seeds are deficient in their metabolic capacity to selectively catalyze the flux of conjugated fatty acids from their site of synthesis on PC to storage in TAG.

Semen from six rams was collected by electro-ejaculation in the autumn and again from six different rams in the spring. The sperm concentration and motility were determined using spectrophotometry and computerized automated semen analysis, respectively. Samples were diluted at 23 degree C to 400 x 10 super(6) cells/ml in a one-step Tris-egg yolk-glycerol (5%, v/v) media, cooled to 5 degree C over 2 h and maintained at 5 degree C for the duration of the experiments. Aliquots were loaded into 0.5 ml French straws at 0, 24 or 48 h after cooling, frozen in liquid nitrogen vapor for 12-13 min, 4.5 cm above the liquid nitrogen, and plunged into liquid nitrogen for storage. After thawing, autumn samples frozen after 0, 24, or 48 h of storage exhibited similar percentages of motility (29, 31, 36%, respectively), progressively motility (16, 15, 17%, respectively), plasma membrane integrity (28, 35, 29%, respectively) and live acrosome-reacted cells (0.4, 0.6, 0.8%, respectively; P > 0.05). In addition, the quantity of sperm that bound to hen's egg perivitelline membranes after being held at 5 degree C for 0, 24, or 48 h was not significantly different when the values were expressed as means of the quantity of sperm (155, 177, 106 sperm, respectively) or as the proportion of sperm inseminated (0.39, 0.49, 0.34, respectively; P > 0.05). Likewise, ram sperm collected in the spring and frozen at 0, 24 and 48 h after cooling had similar (P > 0.05) total motility (21, 25, 20%, respectively), progressive motility (14, 15, 11%, respectively), plasma membrane integrity (26, 33, 31%, respectively) and live acrosome-reacted cells (3.7, 3.5, 3.2%, respectively; P > 0.05). The 0 h holding time had significantly less sperm bound to a hen's egg perivitelline membrane compared to the 48 h holding time (250 and 470 sperm, respectively) although the 24 h holding time was not different from the 0 or 48 h holding time (281 sperm; P - 0.05) but analysis of the proportion of the total sperm inseminated resulted in no significant differences observed (P > 0.05). These results indicate that ram sperm can be held at 5 degree C for up to 48 h prior to freezing with no injurious effects on motility, membrane integrity, or fertilizing potential as indicated by membrane binding ability.

Although powdery mildews are somewhat host specific, E. cichoracearum is reported to have a wide host range which includes the commonly grown bedding plants begonia, phlox, salvia, sunflower, verbena, and zinnia. Among these hosts, we have reported that begonia, verbena and zinnia can accumulate silicon when grown in silicon-fortified hydroponic solution (1). Inoculation of zinnia (Z. elegans cv. 'Oklahoma White') grown hydroponically, with and without silicon, initially resulted in typical white, fuzzy powdery mildew growth on the upper leaf surfaces of silicon (-) plants. After an additional two days, minute colonies began developing on the silicon (+) plants. Disease progression occurred on plants of both treatments but the silicon (+) treatment never developed symptoms to the same degree as the silicon (-) treatment. This delayed expression of powdery mildew supports the report of reduced (delayed) black spot disease on rose (2) and supports a role for silicon in an active mechanism of defense within the host plant (3). Better understanding of the mechanism(s) involved in delayed expression could lead to new approaches for controlling this widespread greenhouse production problem.

The potential SOD host list has been rapidly expanding in areas where optimal temperature and humidity may exist for suitable periods for SOD infection outside the areas indicted on the risk map. We monitored Ericaceous habitat areas in Georgia and South Carolina for temperature, dew point and humidity ranges throughout the year. Data loggers in these locations recorded on an hourly basis. In lower elevations, two locations had a greater than 50 percent correlation with temperature risk parameters for SOD. In two higher elevation locations there was greater than 50 percent agreement for temperature risk parameters for two months at one location and for 8 months at another. One high elevation site had temperatures that fell within criteria from February through November. The other site met criteria only during May and October. This data suggests risk may be more wide spread in various microclimates than current risk maps indicate.

Of the array of growth management techniques, urban containment policies are considered by some to be a promising approach. This paper focuses on greenbelts, the most restrictive form of urban containment policy. The long-standing greenbelt of Seoul, Republic of Korea is examined as a case study. Seoul's greenbelt has generated both significant social costs and benefits. Costs include higher land and housing prices in the urban area surrounded by the greenbelt, additional costs incurred by commuters who live beyond the greenbelt and work in Seoul, and increased congestion and related quality of life impacts. Benefits include the amenity value of living near the greenbelt, recreational resources, bequest and heritage values, fiscal savings due to increased efficiency in the provision of public services and infrastructure, and a wide range of life-supporting ecosystem services. After standing virtually unchanged for almost three decades, Korea's greenbelt policy is currently being revised and weakened, largely due to pressure from greenbelt landowners and developers. Although there is no definitive answer to the question of whether Seoul would be a more or less "sustainable city" today without the greenbelt, it is certain that in the absence of the greenbelt, Seoul would have lost much of its rich natural heritage and essential ecosystem services.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - The wheat gall nematode, Anguina tritici: A qualitative pest risk assessment for this nematode in U.S. wheat for export AN - 19436527; 6971441 AB - The wheat gall nematode, Anguina tritici, was first reported in the United States in 1909. The last published report, however, of its occurrence in the U.S. was in 1975. There is no evidence of the occurrence of this nematode in U.S. wheat growing areas despite extensive general surveillance over several decades. This current pest status of A. tritici is based on multiple information sources, including a comprehensive review of the scientific literature and a polling of more than 40 U.S. scientists and other specialists with experience in nematology, plant pathology and wheat seed inspection and production. Its absence in wheat is attributed to changes in agricultural practices, primarily the use of clean seed in combination with crop rotation and fallowing.

It is a relict of the Miocene broadleaved evergreen sclerophyll forest, and is now restricted to a highly fragmented range in the Santa Lucia Mountains of central coastal California. Expected heterozygosity for 30 isozyme loci in 18 enzyme systems, averaged over six populations that spanned the species' north-south range, was only 0.036. Despite a fragmented range and isolated populations, differentiation (F sub(ST)) was only 0.080 for mature trees, and the number of migrants per generation (Nm) was 2.88 or 3.83, depending on the method of estimation. F sub(ST) for embryos was lower, 0.025, and Nm correspondingly higher, 9.75. Nei's genetic distances were small and unrelated to geographic distances between populations. The proportion of full seeds per cone was only 0.082-0.488, depending on population, which suggests a high incidence of selfing followed by embryo abortion. However, the level of accumulated inbreeding, F sub(IS), in mature trees was low, only 0.049. By contrast, F sub(IS) for embryos was 0.388, which indicates a high proportion of selfed progeny, in agreement with the low seed yields. The difference in inbreeding coefficients between seed trees and their progeny suggest that most inbreds are eliminated before maturity and, therefore, seed production, already low, overestimates the true potential for regeneration of these populations. These results have implications for conservation.

The phagocytosis of Salmonella enteritidis, oxidative burst (OXB) and degranulation (DGR) were used as parameters of heterophil functional efficiency in these studies. Blood was collected and heterophils isolated from each line of turkeys at days 4, 7, and 14 post-hatch. On days 4 and 7 post-hatch, heterophils from Rio Grande turkeys responded to phorbol A-myristate-13-acetate with significantly greater OXB activity than commercial line A. Results from the DGR assay also revealed a greater level of activity in Rio Grande heterophils when compared with heterophils from Line A turkeys. On day 14 post-hatch, heterophils from the commercial line A responded at similar or greater levels than Rio Grande turkey heterophils in the OXB and DGR assays. No differences in the phagocytosis of S. enteritidis were observed between the lines. These results indicate that the commercial Line A turkeys may be at an immunological disadvantage during the first days post-hatch when compared with their wild-type predecessors. Based on the results of these experiments, research into the differences and similarities between the innate immune response of commercial turkey lines and wild-type turkeys may illuminate areas where commercial lines can be improved to decrease losses due to disease and to decrease pathogen contamination of turkey products while preserving performance characteristics.

Collections of both species of flies were highest on exposed Alsynite (house flies, 506.2 flies/day; stable flies, 19.1) followed by blue fabric (house flies, 308.1 flies/day; stable flies 12.5). Responses of both species to white and black fabric were 70% lower than to either of the former materials. When blue fabric was used to cover 50% of the surface area of Alsynite cylinders, house fly responses were significantly higher (290.2 flies/day) than to blue fabric alone (165.2); stable fly responses to the bi-colored target were significantly higher (152.6) than to Alsynite alone (93.8). Comparison of fly counts in the blue-covered versus uncovered Alsynite with traps of a single material indicated that house fly attraction to blue fabric was enhanced by the presence of clear Alsynite, whereas stable fly attraction to Alsynite was enhanced by the presence of blue fabric. The presence of blue+Alsynite visual targets increased collections of house flies in pans of dry fly bait but not in baited jug traps. Visual targets treated with 1.2% bifenthrin controlled >50% and 90% of house flies in large cages by days two and four after placement, respectively.

The resulting models are used to evaluate questions relevant to species conservation, in particular, comparing occurrence estimates in reserved and unreserved lands. We used an information-theoretic approach to develop and evaluate a priori models to predict the occurrence of the Del Norte salamander (Plethodon elongatus) within its geographic range on national forests in California. We then evaluated the association of P. elongatus to federal reserved lands using both an empirical and model-based assessment. For the model-based assessment, we calculated the probability of occurrence at existing Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) plots that we sampled for salamanders and those that were unsampled within our study area. The Del Norte salamander was more likely to be detected at plots with steeper slopes, older trees, more hardwood basal area, more canopy cover of conifers, more rock, and in areas receiving more precipitation and slightly warmer mean annual temperatures. Only the relationship of percent rock cover to probability of occupancy by P. elongatus was linear. Our best multivariate predictive model explained 66.2% of the deviance, and it correctly classified 96% of the plots at which P. elongatus was detected and 94% of the plots at which it was not. Ten-fold, cross-validation results revealed that the best model was relatively robust with correct classification rates of 87% and 89% for locations at which P. elongatus was detected and not detected, respectively. Our empirical results revealed no strong association with reserved lands. However, when we used our best model to estimate P. elongatus'; probability of occupancy at both sampled and unsampled plots, the mean probability of occupancy within reserved lands was greater than in unreserved lands, suggesting that reserved lands have higher-quality habitat relative to nonreserved lands. Overall, our results indicate that systematically collected forest inventory data can have significant value in developing wildlife habitat models when combined with samples of animal occurrence. Robust, empirically derived habitat models, such as the one we developed, may be useful tools for managers for monitoring the quantity, quality, and distribution of a species' habitat.

Although spatially explicit data on processes that generate ecological patterns, such as the distribution of disease over a landscape, are frequently unavailable, information about the scales over which processes operate can be used to understand the link between pattern and process. Our goal was to identify scales of mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) movement and mixing that exerted the greatest influence on the spatial pattern of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in northcentral Colorado, USA. We hypothesized that three scales of mixing (individual, winter subpopulation, or summer subpopulation) might control spatial variation in disease prevalence. We developed a fully Bayesian hierarchical model to compare the strength of evidence for each mixing scale. We found strong evidence that the finest mixing scale corresponded best to the spatial distribution of CWD infection. There was also evidence that land ownership and habitat use play a role in exacerbating the disease, along with the known effects of sex and age. Our analysis demonstrates how information on the scales of spatial processes that generate observed patterns can be used to gain insight when process data are sparse or unavailable.

(mean weight plus or minus SE=8.1 plus or minus 0.5 g) to environmental unionized ammonia-nitrogen (NH sub(3)-N) and nitrite-nitrogen (NO sub(2)-N) at various salinities was determined via a series of static exposure trials. Median-lethal concentrations (LC sub(50) values) of NH sub(3)-N and NO sub(2)-N at 24, 48, and 96 h of exposure were calculated at salinities of 6.3, 12.5 and 25.0 g L super(-1) at 28 degree C (pH=8.23-8.36). Tolerance of pompano to acute NH sub(3)-N exposure was not affected by salinity, with 24, 48 and 96 h LC sub(50) values ranging from 1.05 to 1.12, 1.00 to 1.08 and 0.95 to 1.01 mg NH sub(3)-N L super(-1) respectively. Regarding NO sub(2)-N, tolerance of pompano to this environmental toxicant was compromised at reduced salinities. Median-lethal concentrations of NO sub(2)-N to pompano at 24, 48 and 96 h of exposure ranged from 67.4 to 220.1, 56.9 to 140.7 and 16.7 to 34.2 mg NO sub(2)-N L super(-1) respectively. The results of this study indicate that juvenile Florida pompano are relatively sensitive to acute NH sub(3)-N and NO sub(2)-N exposure, and in the case of the latter, especially at lower salinities.

To this end, we investigated the relative significance of three social theories of household structure--population, lifestyle behavior, and social stratification--to the distribution of vegetation cover in Baltimore, Maryland, USA. Our ability to assess the relative significance of these theories depended on fine-scale social and biophysical data. We distinguished among vegetation in three areas hypothesized to be differentially linked to these social theories: riparian areas, private lands, and public rights-of-way (PROWs). Using a muitimodel inferential approach, we found that variation of vegetation cover in riparian areas was not explained by any of the three theories and that lifestyle behavior was the best predictor of vegetation cover on private lands. Surprisingly, lifestyle behavior was also the best predictor of vegetation cover in PROWs. The inclusion of a quadratic term for housing age significantly improved the models. Based on these research results, we question the exclusive use of income and education as the standard variables to explain variations in vegetation cover in urban ecological systems. We further suggest that the management of urban vegetation can be improved by developing environmental marketing strategies that address the underlying household motivations for and participation in local land management.

They were tested for virulence on seedlings of differential oat lines in the greenhouse. A total of 175 races were found among the 340 isolates from the winter oat region of the US, whereas 216 distinct races were found among 319 isolates from the spring oat region. The crown rust population derived from winter oat in the southern US was distinct from the spring oat population in the upper Midwest, although there was no virulence unique to either population. Virulence to Pc48 and Pc52 increased significantly in both regions during the 2001-2005 time period. Virulence to Pc59 increased and virulence to Pc53 decreased in the winter oat region during the same period. Most of the virulence associations reported by Leonard et al. (2005) in the US oat crown rust population in the early 1990's were also found in this survey. Much of the virulence diversity in the oat crown rust population in the United States can be related to the deployment of resistance genes in commercial oat cultivars and virulence associations existing in the oat crown rust population.

Because of this change, crown rust resistance has become a breeding target. The purpose of this study was to characterize crown rust resistance in cultivars and elite breeding lines from the Aberdeen program. Field experiments were conducted against natural populations of Puccinia coronata under highly-conducive conditions in LA and TX and using specific pathogen races in ID. Greenhouse experiments were conducted to test for compatibility to P. coronata isolates from throughout the US. All Aberdeen cultivars were highly susceptible to the pathogen population in TX and LA and to compatible isolates in the ID field trial. Similarly, they were susceptible to most isolates tested in the greenhouse. Elite lines 99Ab12179 and 99Ab11862, however, showed only about 20% disease severity relative to the susceptible check Provena in TX and LA, versus about 10% for the partially resistant check CDC Boyer. These two lines were resistant to about half of the isolates evaluated in the greenhouse. Experiments are underway to determine if the lower disease level of these two lines in the field was due to partial resistance.

The virus, for which the name Squash vein yellowing virus (SqVYV) is proposed, has flexuous rod-shaped particles, similar to 900 nm in length. Koch's postulates were completed by mechanical inoculation of C. pepo seedlings with isolated virions. The experimental host range was limited to species in the Cucurbitaceae, with most dramatic symptoms in squash and watermelon, and excluded all tested species in the Amaranthaceae, Apocynaceae, Asteraceae, Chenopodiaceae, Fabaceae, Malvaceae and Solanaceae. The virus was not transmitted by aphids (Myzus persicae) but was transmitted by whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci). Infection by SqVYV induced pinwheel inclusions visible by electron microscopy that were characteristic of members of the Potyviridae. Comparison of the SqVYV coat protein gene and protein sequences with those of recognized members of the Potyviridae indicate that it is a novel ipomovirus. A limited survey revealed that SqVYV was also present in watermelons suffering from a mature vine decline and fruit rot recently observed in Florida.

To identify temperatures and exposure periods lethal to P. ramorum, we exposed hyphal colonies to temperatures ranging from -5 to -25 degree C for up to 24 h, and from 30 to 50 degree C for up to 8 h. In addition, infected Rhododendron 'Cunningham's White' leaf disks (0.3 cm super(2) diameter) were incubated in sand, sandy loam, and loam adjusted to 30% or 60% water-holding capacity for up to 7 days. Survival was characterized by recovery of P. ramorum on V8 juice or PARPH selective media. Hyphal colonies failed to regrow following incubation at temperatures greater than or equal to 42.5 degree C for under 10 min, 40 degree C for 15 min, and 37.5 degree C for 2 h. There was some recovery of colonies following 24 h incubation at -25 degree C, the lowest temperature tested. There was no recovery of P. ramorum from infected leaf disks, regardless of media or moisture levels, following incubation at 40 degree C for 3 days, 35 degree C for 4 days, or -20 degree C for 2 to 4 days. Long term studies employing diurnal temperatures based on historical weather data are in progress.

In addition, the effects of temperature during a nighttime dew period on initiation of infection on soybean were compared among P. pachyrhizi isolates from Taiwan, Zimbabwe, and Brazil. All isolates behaved similarly, with optimum temperature ranges of 17 to 28 degree C for germination, germ-tube growth, and infection. Temperatures for maximum germination varied between 20 to 22 degree C, and germ-tube growth from 19 to 22 degree C, depending on rust isolate and duration of the incubation period. The temperature at which maximun infection occurred was 21 degree C for all. Differences between specific isolates in optimum temperature for germination were sometimes statistically significant, but minor. Differences in optimum temperature for germ-tube growth were not significant. A very close similarity in the effects of temperature were observed among all P. pachyrhizi isolates, in spite of the fact that they had been collected from different parts of the world over a 24-year period. No differences were observed among P. pachyrhizi isolates in aggressiveness or symptoms on susceptible soybean cultivars.

A nested real-time PCR assay was used to detect P. pachyrhizi DNA in the filter residue. A subset of 32 rain collections in January and February were used for assay development. The final assay was used to screen 1,644 samples collected from May-August. The lower limit of the assay was roughly 1-10 spores per sample based on spiking experiments. P. pachyrhizi spores were detected as early as February in Louisiana. The number of positive samples increased through May across the southeastern US, from western Texas to South Carolina. By the end of August, 86 positive samples were detected across the eastern US, from Texas to North Dakota and Florida to upstate New York. The highest number of positives during a given week occurred at the end of May and middle of August. Verification of positive samples in the Dakotas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Missouri was done through DNA sequencing of the assay amplicon. This study demonstrates the use of a PCR assay to detect spores in rain collected at geographically dispersed NADP sites, and can serve as a powerful tool for understanding the aerial transport of spores in the atmosphere.

AN - 17253077; 6970976 AB - Fusaric acid (5-butylpicolinic acid) was first discovered during the laboratory culture of Fusarium heterosporum, was one of the first fungal metabolites implicated in the pathogenesis of wilt symptoms of plants especially under adverse conditions. In addition to a primary role in plant pathogenesis, fusaric acid is mildly toxic to mice and has other pharmacological properties. During tests for control of the fungus F. verticillioides, it was determined that fusaric acid was produced in planta and appears to control the growth of a biocontrol bacterium. Since fusaric acid is considered a wilt toxin, we examined its in planta production and role in the wilt of field maize. Using plants infected with fusaric acid producing and non-producing strains of F. verticillioides, we isolated, identified, and measured fusaric acid in roots of seedlings grown with and without drought stress. It was determined that fusaric acid was produced in planta at the same concentrations regardless of drought stress, and there were no symptoms of wilt disease in the one field maize cultivar tested. Perhaps its major importance is as an antibiotic against bacteria that co-occur with Fusarium species on plants and in soil, suggesting that fusaric acid does not function solely as a wilt toxin in maize.

While most of the steps in the Fusarium pathways have been identified, there are still some questions regarding Myrothecium toxin biosynthesis. We have successfully used a transgenic system for studying the function of F. graminearum Tri4 (FgTri4) by heterologous expression of FgTri4 in F. verticillioides, which does not produce trichothecenes. Transgenic F. verticillioides, carrying FgTri4 under the control of a F. verticillioides fumonisin biosynthetic gene (FUM8) promoter, converted exogenous trichodiene to isotrichodermin showing that the FgTRI4 protein is a multifunctional monooxygenase. To determine the function of M. roridum Tri4 (MrTri4), we used the same transgenic approach but found that this construct, in one orientation, was lethal to the host bacterium. Another construct carrying a truncated MrTri4 without the F. verticillioides Fum8 promoter, was also lethal. This suggests that certain segments of MrTri4 may encode an antimicrobial peptide.

Pan of this evaluation is the compatibility of MV with chemicals commonly used in agroecosystems. Commercial formulations of the pesticides acifluorfen (Ultra Blazer), glyphosate (Roundup Weathermax), propiconazole (Tilt) and pyraclostrobin (Headline) were tested for compatibility with MV. Colony diameter was recorded every 24 h for 10 d on potato dextrose agar (PDA) and on PDA amended with formulated pesticides. 50% reduction in colony diameter was achieved with approximately 0.2% giyphosate, 0.8% acifluorfen, 5.5 ppm propiconazole and 10 ppm pyroclostrobin. MV conidia were tolerant of incubation in aqueous suspensions of label recommended application concentrations acifluorfen, propiconazole and pyraclostrobin, but the tested formulation of giyphosate resulted in almost complete and immediate loss of viability. Some pesticides may act synergistically with bioherbicides by weakening plant defenses or reducing microbial competition, but there is a need to develop application methods that protect the viability and epidemiology of the bioherbicide.

L. africanus and Ca. L. americanus, respectively. The presumed low concentration and uneven distribution of the pathogens in citrus plants make the phloem-limited bacterium difficult to consistently detect. Molecular diagnoses based on conventional PCR and real-time PCR are used as confirmatory tests for suspect infected samples, yet the potential of PCR assays to improve detection of Liberibacter species has not been evaluated. We have validated and compared four conventional and one loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) protocols to three real-time PCR protocols. The detection sensitivity of the validated conventional PCR assays was improved compared to the original protocols. The validated conventional and the newly developed real-time methods were reliable confirmatory tests for Ca Liberibacter spp. in suspect HLB infected samples. There were no differences in assay specificities among the standard format PCR-based methods evaluated. The real-time PCR was at least 10 to 100 fold more sensitive than conventional PCR and LAMP, revealing the potential of this tool for early detection and identification of Ca. Liberibacter spp. prior to the appearance of the disease symptoms.

To determine if the pathogen is likely to establish in its introduced range, experiments were initiated to monitor its life cycle. In 2005, infected leaves were sampled for the ratio of uredospores to teliospores. Uredospores were produced from May to July. Teliospores emerged in early August, and persisted until plants senesced. To determine if uredospores and teliospores have the potential to infect seedlings in the spring, both spore types were collected in August 2005, bagged, distributed in the field, and regularly tested for viability. Uredospores had very low germination rates (0 to 0.2%). Teliospores germinated in January 2006 (10-13%), corresponding to when seedlings are present in the field. Our results suggest that P. jaceae is likely to persist in California because teliospores can initiate new infections in yellow starthistle seedlings.

Under federal mandate, USDA APHIS has issued specific guidelines for pathogen detection and has implemented strict control points that guarantee the proficiency of the employed tests. However, the accuracy of the results can be influenced by the quality of the DNA template used for PCR amplification. To understand the effect of plant inhibitors in PCR amplifications, we compared the efficiency of three different DNA extraction protocols using four host and non-host plant species in real time PCR experiments using Sybr green registered and TaqMan registered chemistries. Plant and pathogen specific markers were amplified and the kinetics of the reactions modeled using linear and polynomial regression analysis. Statistical analysis of data indicates that host factors can mask the presence of low pathogen concentrations increasing the chances of observing false negatives in the samples. These data also suggest that model parameters could be used to furnish experimental support for empirically determined threshold values of pathogen presence. This work helps to optimize parameters for pathogen detection using molecular diagnostic methods.

This database contains over 380,000 fungal scientific names, with synonyms and anamorphic or teleomorphic connections for over 23,000 accepted names. The database also contains over 560,000 records of plant hosts and geographic location compiled from literature reports, and records for over 750,000 specimens in the BPI herbarium. Of the 75,000 species for which we have fungus-host records, nearly 52,000 have not been reported in the U.S.A. Of these, only 15,000 occur in multiple localities, while most of the remaining fungi are known only from the type specimen. We have nomenclatural data for more than 3600 names of fungi not reported in the U.S.A. Of these, roughly one quarter are synonyms. The database represents an invaluable source of information in identifying fungi that are not found in the U.S.A. or other countries for which entry could pose an ecological risk or economic threat to agriculture. This information is vital for plant quarantine policy makers in deciding when to restrict imports to protect the U.S.A. or other countries from introduction of exotic and potentially invasive fungal pathogens.

Recently, a new disease of YST called false rust was described from southern France. The causal agent was named Synchytrium solstitiale and produces orange galls on infected leaves causing severe leaf deformation. This fungus is being investigated as a biocontrol agent. Inoculated YST seedlings from France or California seed sustained 88% and 100% infection, respectively. In the greenhouse, all infected French seedlings survived to the rosette stage, while 33% of the California seedlings died. Compared to noninfected control seedlings, plant dry weight was reduced in the infected California plants but not in the plants from France. To measure impact of this disease in the field, infected and asymptomatic YST rosettes were tagged in 2004 and 2005 in a naturally infected field site in France. After maturity, the mean heights of the infected and asymptomatic plants were 11.5 and 29.3 cm, respectively, in 2004, and 11.5 and 25.7 cm, respectively, in 2005. Both number of flowers and stem diameters were lower in the mature plants that were infected at the rosette stage than the asymptomatic plants in both years.

Sugarcane fields were grid-soil sampled and rust ratings were collected at each point over six to seven weeks. Rust incidence and soil properties were highly variable and were spatially correlated. Rust ratings were correlated with several soil properties, most notably soil phosphorus (r = 0.40 to 0.81) and soil sulfur (r = 0.36 to 0.68). Areas in which nutrients were present at "optimum" or "very-high" levels were frequently associated with higher rust levels. Contour plots of soil properties and rust levels clearly suggested a link between these two parameters. At harvest, spatial variability of yield across two of the rust-affected fields was determined. Rust ratings were negatively correlated with sugar yield and contour plots of these parameters support this association. These combined data suggest that sugarcane growers that apply fertilizer in excess of plant requirements will increase the incidence and severity of rust infestations in their fields and may have yield loss.

For an assay to be useful the primers and probe must be both specific and sensitive. Although some primers and probes are specific at the subspecies or strain level they are not sensitive enough to detect bacteria at levels lower than 10 super(4) colony forming units per ml. Recently, multiple displacement amplification (MDA) has been employed for uniform amplification of whole genome DNA to increase the amount of DNA available for analysis of dried blood samples. For MDA of whole genome DNA, we used a REPL1-g (trademark) kit as described by the manufacture (Qiagen, Valencia, CA.). We compared standard real-time PCR to MDA-PCR for detection of two regulated pathogens, Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris in crucifer seeds and Acidovorax avenae subsp. citrulii in melon seeds. These bacteria were chosen because their real-time primers and probes had high specificities but low sensitivities. Preliminary results showed 20/20 crucifer seed samples and 10/10 melon seed samples were positive by MDA-PCR but none by standard PCR.

The cropping systems in these dryland areas are based on cereals, with rotation crops including several legumes and brassicas. Given the complex and diverse Pythium species composition, variation in species prevalence at different locations may depend on host crop and environment. A replicated field trial with cereals and five different rotation crops was sampled, as well as a survey of grower fields containing a variety of host crops. In both studies, soils were collected and real-time PCR was used to quantify ten species of Pythium. In the replicated trial, P. abappressorium, P. irregulare group IV and P. rostratifingens were the most commonly identified, with DNA concentrations of P. irregulare group IV 5- to 10-fold higher than the other species. Concentrations of Pythium DNA were similar with regard to host, except for reduced concentrations of P. rostratifingens DNA with lentil or fallow soil. In the survey, up to nine species of Pythium were found at a single location. P. irregulare group IV and P. abappressorium were observed most frequently (greater than 75% of locations), while the more virulent species P. irregulare group I and P. ultimum occurred in fewer than 40% of the sites. P. irregulare group I was found only in soils from wheat and lentil fields.

In south central Alaska, wild celery (Angelica lucida, family Apiaceae) plants growing along roadsides near crops and in forests contained severe leaf mottling and vein-clearing. Leaves were collected and processed immediately or stored at -80 degree C. Virions were extracted, partially purified, and serologically assayed using universal potyvirus antiserum (Agdia, Inc.). Confirmation of a plant virus belonging to the family Potyviridae was by ELISA and detection of a coat protein similar to 35 kDa by Western analysis. PCR assays using a universal potyvirus primer set that targeted the coat protein and polymerase genes, generated the predicted similar to 2K nt fragment. A Blast search of nucleotide sequences obtained from the fragments determined that although the sequence was most similar to several potyvirus that may also may affect plant species in the family Apiaceae (Carrot virus Y, Apium virus Y, and Turnip mosaic virus), it was unique enough to be placed as a novel virus in the family Potyviridae, and tentatively named Angelica virus Y (AnVY). Although A. lucida is the only known natural host to AnVY, it is important to determine if this new virus is a potential threat to Alaska vegetable crops.

This effect is mediated by soil biota and varies depending upon the BSM type used and the pathogens targeted. To screen for fungi that may be impacting these processes, we examined changes to root-associated fungi from 1 yr old apple trees grown in soils amended with two BSM treatments. Fungal communities were characterized by terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) analysis with primer sets targeting the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of ascomycetes, basidiomycetes, and oomycetes individually. The impact on the fungal community was dependent upon the RSM amendment type and to some extent the group of fungi under consideration. Relative to the control, the 2 different RSM treatments created similar levels of change within each of the fungal communities however community composition was altered differently in each case. The basidiomycete community was changed most dramatically by these treatments. Differences detected are being examined to identify new fungal taxa that contribute to the differential level of pathogen supression observed in the field in response to different BSM treatments.

These same rotations were also assessed with and without the addition of a fall cover crop of no-tilled winter rye over a 3-yr period. Canola and rapeseed rotations consistently reduced Rhizoctonia diseases (stem canker and black scurf) and common scab (25 to 38% reduction) and resulted in increased microbial activity and unique soil microbial profiles. Addition of the rye cover crop further reduced black scurf and common scab, averaging 12.5 and 7.2% reduction, respectively, across all rotations. The combined effect of a canola or rapeseed rotation and winter rye cover crop reduced disease severity by 35 to 41% for black scurf and 20 to 33% for common scab relative to continuous potato with no cover crop. Addition of a cover crop also significantly affected soil microbial characteristics and improved tuber yield slightly (4% increase). Thus, in addition to positive effects in reducing erosion and improving soil quality, cover crops in conjunction with effective crop rotations, can improve disease control.

We evaluated the effect of 0, 1, 3, and 7 days of flooding before infection of Rhododendron plants through either wound inoculation of leaves or infestation of the potting mix using two hybrid cultivars 'Catawbiense Boursault' and 'Minnetonka'. Foliage was inoculated with sporangia and potting mix was infested with both sporangia and mycelial agar plugs. Lesion area was quantified using digital imaging. Flooding had no effect on lesion area of foliar infections. Sporangia were retrieved from infected leaves after 10 days of incubation under 20C ambient containment growth chamber conditions. Root rot developed after about 4 weeks on most plants where the potting mix was infested. Above ground symptoms included wilting, yellow or red discoloration, and at times development of lesions similar to those observed in foliar inoculations.

Affected plants can develop symptoms (mosaic, necrosis, chlorosis, reduced vigor), and are not saleable. We solicited symptomatic plants and new cultivars from growers then surveyed by group-specific RT/PCR (AGDIA, Elkhart IN) and double-stranded RNA analysis. Four symptomatic cultivars were found to contain viuses. 'Lavender Shades' was found to contain Bean Yellow Mosaic Potyvirus (reported previously) and a similar to 10 kb dsRNA. 'Silver Ann' tested positive for both Potexvirus and Potyvirus, and had a complex dsRNA profile. 'Taylor Town Red' tested positive for Potyvirus and contained a similar to 10 kb dsRNA. 'ES Burg 1136-3' had reduced vigor, tested positive for Trichovirus, and contained similar to 7.5 and similar to 6.7 kb dsRNAs. 'Lanai Scarlet 921-1' and several other cultivars were symptomless but tested positive for Carmovirus and had a dsRNA profile consistent with that of Carmoviruses. The BYMV in 'Lavender Shades' was most readily detected in terminal leaf tips. An RT/PCR assay was developed and used to show that BYMV is more readily detected in young plants grown in soil than in tissue-cultured plants or older plants. Characterization of the viruses is ongoing.

Data collected from 221 transects of hop yards in Oregon and Washington were used to determine spatial patterns of disease at multiple scales. Disease incidence ranged from 0 to 0.92 among data sets. The beta-binomial distribution fit the data better than the binomial distribution for 46 or 54% of the data sets according to a log likelihood ratio or C-alpha test, respectively. However, spatial autocorrelation and runs analysis indicated little aggregation of disease at scales larger than the sampling unit. The binary power law provided an excellent fit to the data, with slope and intercept parameters being significantly greater than 1, indicating that heterogeneity varied systematically with incidence. These analyses suggest that the incidence of powdery mildew in cones was slightly aggregated among plants but larger scale patterns of disease were rare. Knowledge of disease heterogeneity was used to construct fixed and sequential sampling curves to precisely estimate the incidence of hop powdery mildew in cones.

Seventeen genotypes were planted at Ft. Cobb, OK, in 2003, 2004 and 2005. Sclerotial density of S. minor was 1-2 viable sclerotia/100 g of soil. The study had four replications in a randomized complete block design, with each plot consisting of two, 5-m rows, with a row spacing of 0.91 m. Disease incidence (%) was read at about 120 days post planting. Over 2003-2005, Grif 13826 (a PI of Ecuadorian origin) and Grif 14057 (a PI of Guatemalan origin), had a disease incidence of 6.3 and 5.2%, respectively, which were significantly different (P = 0.05) from the Sclerotinia-resistant cv.

The disease is caused primarily by the fungal pathogen, Phomopsis longicolla. To compare differences among isolates, 30 isolates from soybean and other hosts were characterized using pathogenic and molecular approaches. Pathogenicity tests were performed in the greenhouse using a cut-stem method with culture-plug inoculation on 2-week old soybean seedlings of susceptible line Williams 82. All isolates caused stem lesions. There were significant differences among isolates based on stem lesion length as a percentage of the stem length (P 0.05). Isolate PL1 from Illinois was the most aggressive isolate among 18 soybean isolates. Cluster analysis indicated that there were three groups of isolates based on stem lesion length. The growth diameter of isolates on potato dextrose agar was not correlated with stem lesion length. In addition, 12 isolates from other hosts caused stem lesions on soybean, ranging from 14 to 85 percent of the total stem length. Preliminary ISSR (inter simple sequence repeat) analyses indicated that most of soybean isolates from the same geographic origin had similar banding patterns although polymorphic bands were found using the primer ISSR004.

Studies were planted on 25 April, 9 May, 27 May, and 13 June. The experimental design for each test was a split-plot with six replicates. Whole plots were cultivars, and sub-plots were inoculated with R. solani and an uninoculated control. Rhizoctonia solani caused significant seedling losses in all cultivars planted on the first three planting dates. Seed weight and numbers were reduced for Mississippi Silver in inoculated plots for all planting dates. Overall, Mississippi Silver and Coronet had higher plant stand and seed yields than Knuckle Purple Hull, but all three cultivars were susceptible to R. solani. The development and planting of R. solani-resistant cultivars would reduce seedling losses and improve cowpea yields, especially in cold, spring soils.

The disease causes deep bleeding vertical cankers that exude a bacterial-laden reddish brown sap. We have developed a robust PCR-based technique to detect B. rubrifaciens in soil, walnut leaves, and sap. Limits of detection in soil and in planta were 5.2 x 10 super(4) CFU/g soil and 182 CFU/mg leaf tissue respectively. Two species specific primer pairs, GSP1 and GSP2 were designed from transposon insertion mutants defective in the production of the characteristic red pigment rubrifacine and amplified 233 bp and 280 bp diagnostic fragments respectively. A third species specific primer pair amplified a 409 bp unique fragment from the 16S ribosomal gene. Experiments using Real-time PCR to increase the sensitivity of B. rubrifaciens detection in bacterial-spiked soil and bacteria infiltrated walnut leaves will be discussed. These PCR primers are useful tools in the specific and sensitive detection of B. rubrifaciens in latent infections and in orchard soil.

Consequently, their surfaces are not free from natural contaminants. Recent disease outbreaks, involving fresh fruit and vegetables, have raised regulatory concern for the microbial safety of fruits and vegetables. To meet the food safety challenge, a new, novel foam-based product, alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride (ADBAC) has been developed and evaluated. Tomato and pepper fruits were protected with ADBAC sprayed at 0, 1, 1, 10, 100, and 1000 ppm. Fruits were inoculated with 1 x 10 super(8) CFU per ml of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria (Xcv) and Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae (Pss). Results show that lesion size on inoculated tomato fruits decreased with increased concentration of ADBAC and complete lesion size reduction was achieved with 100 and 1000 ppm of ADBAC. Disinfesting the surface of inoculated tomato and pepper fruits with 1, 10, 100 and 1000 ppm of ADBAC reduced the inoculated levels of Xcv and Pss by 10 super(4) to 10 super(8) CFU per ml of bacteria. The greatest reduction was accomplished using 1000 ppm of ADBAC. An effective fruit surface disinfection treatment should be incorporated in fruit sanitizing protocols to achieve fruit surface decontamination.

In Minnesota, the risk of spread by two sap beetle vectors, Colopterus truncatus (Cot) and Carpophilus sayi, is greatest in spring. Field studies were conducted to identify sap beetle species visiting the inoculum source and the infection court in summer and fall in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Seven species accounted for >97% of 735 sap beetles found on 64 oak wilt spore mats produced during September and October. The most abundant species were Glishchrochilus quadrisignatus (Gq) (30%) and Cot (23%). Three species accounted for >79% of >12 sap beetle species collected from fresh wounds on red oaks between early July and mid-October. Cryptarcha ampla (50%), Lobiopa sp. (16%) and Gq (13%) were the most abundant species. C. fagacearum was isolated from only one wound inhabiting beetle each year (Cot and Cr. ampla) of 387 assayed using serial dilution plating. Gq could be considered the most likely candidate for transmitting the pathogen in late summer and early fall; however, no Gq collected from wounds yielded the fungus. Overall, the results support the assertion that risk of pathogen spread by sap beetles is low during summer and fall.

For the purpose of understanding the risk of latent symptom expression and symptom progression at different times of the year, nonparametric and semi-parametric methods of survival analysis were used to assess the days from infection to expression of an initial symptom and complete twig blight distal of the infection point. Twelve stems on three plants were wound inoculated monthly from June 2003 to April 2005, incubated in a greenhouse for 3 days, then moved to outside ambient conditions under overhead irrigation. Temperature was monitored hourly and symptoms were recorded at 1 to 3 day intervals. Factors included the month and year of inoculation, stem diameter at inoculation, and total accumulated hours between 15 and 25 degree C. Survival functions were significantly different among months but not between years for most months. The median survival estimate (and 95% confidence intervals) from the month of inoculation for complete twig blight was shortest during summer months, 20 days (17 to 24 days) from the day of inoculation in July, and longest during winter months, 78.5 days (76 to 86 days) from the day of inoculation in January.

Rust spores have been identified on the basis of morphological characteristics, but the accuracy of this method is problematic. In this study, a nested real-time PCR assay was used to detect Phakopsora pachyrhizi DNA isolated from rust spores collected on filters in an inexpensive, portable rain collector. Assay sensitivity was increased through the use of a DNA extraction kit developed for use with soil samples. The collector directly filtered particulate matter deposited in rain. Samples from the collector contained a significant amount of debris deposited by both wet and dry deposition. Thirty collectors were located adjacent to soybean sentinel plots during the period of early June through mid September 2005. A total of 265 filters were assayed, with 58 (22%) testing positive for P. pachyrhizi DNA. Positive samples were collected from 25 of the 27 Minnesota counties where collectors were located in 2005. Most of the positive samples were found on filters from the southern part of the state. DNA sequence analysis of the amplicon for selected positive samples was used for verification. Preliminary assay results of 2006 samples for P. pachyrhizi DNA as well as additional rust fungi will be presented.

Formation of visible sclerotia on inoculated tissues was desired to enable identification of viable pathogens without culturing. Inoculated tissues were incubated on moist filter paper in Petri dishes and observed for 1-6 weeks. Most were visibly parasitized initially, but growth and sclerotium formation often were limited by wet-rotting, collapse of tissue, and growth of molds. On many plant tissues, abundant mycelium of one or both pathogens developed but sclerotia did not form. S. sclerotiorum formed mature sclerotia within 6 weeks on 6 plant species or tissues and S. rolfsii formed sclerotia on 5. Species and tissues on which numerous sclerotia formed included lettuce, red grape, grape tomato, carrot, and green bean pods for S. sclerotiorum, and apple, grape tomato, carrot, and green bean pods for S. rolfsii.

"Maverick Red") exposed to soil pathogens was assessed by measuring changes in leaf temperature. Differences between air temperature and leaf temperature were noticed 7 days after exposure to pathogens. Differences were greatest between week 3 and week 4. No marked difference in disease severity was observed among most of the treatments; although plants treated with P. ultimum exhibited more stunted growth in comparison to other treatments. Differences in temperature leveled off 6 weeks after exposure and plants showed similar growth pattern thereafter. Because most geraniums infected with soil pathogens are usually either asymptomatic or recover when the plants are grown under optimum conditions, it can be difficult to diagnose infection. Therefore, leaf temperature measurements are a versatile way of rapidly examining whether plants are under stress when incited by soil pathogens.

The disease can cause significant vine dieback and yield loss. Fungicide control is not very effective and the causal agent is unknown. Affected areas spread over the bogs for years as an advancing 'ring' of symptomatic vines. Similar to fairy ring disease of turf grass, the areas behind the advancing edge tend recover with healthy plants. In cranberry, major cultivars are typically clonal. However, it is common for cranberry bogs to become contaminated with 'off-types' that develop over time from seedlings or introduction from other sources. We hypothesized that the vines that fill in areas previously decimated by fairy ring might have altered genetic composition. This could result as open areas caused by the disease are filled in with volunteer seedlings or existing off-types that have lower fruiting capacity and more vigorous vegetative growth. We examined this hypothesis by DNA fingerprinting vines sampled from beds affected by fairy ring. Samples were collected within affected areas and outside affected areas. The results suggest that this disease does in fact impact the genetic diversity of the cranberries in affected beds.

This study was conducted to explore other avenues of infection. Corn hybrids were grown in the field and inoculated at the VT stage by inserting A. parasiticus infested toothpicks into stalks between the 5th and 6th node below the lowest ear shoot. Beginning two weeks after inoculation, fungal movement was determined weekly by collecting ear shank tissue and stalk tissue from the nodes between the infection sites and the developing ears. Cross sections of the stalks and ear shanks were flame sterilized and placed on Czapek solution agar amended with NaCl. The NOR mutant was isolated from all stalk node tissues and ear shank tissue in some of the hybrids at the first harvest date. Systemic movement of the fungus up the stalk is another possible infection route to developing corn ears.

Snowflake) with virus-like symptoms including chlorosis and leaf dimpling were obtained from nurseries in Maryland. A virus was mechanically transmitted to Chenopodium quinoa, Cucumis sativus, Hyoscyamus niger, Lycopersicon esculentum (tomato 'Roma'), Nicotiana glutinosa, and N. tabacum, but not to 'Rutgers' tomato or several other inoculated species. In N. tabacum, faint chlorotic spots developed 2-3 days after inoculation, later developing into necrotic spots, lines, and rings. Symptoms were more apparent in plants grown at between 60 and 72 degree F, but would disappear above 75 degree F. No serological reactions were observed with antiserum to Broadbean wilt virus (previously reported from bacopa) or Tobacco streak virus. Partial purification of the virus resulted in a banding profile in sucrose gradients typical of multicomponent viruses. RT-PCR using the Ilarvirus Group primers (Agdia, Inc., Elkhart, IN) yielded a ca. 450-bp product which shared 80-87% nucleic acid and 83% amino acid identities with Parietaria mottle ilarvirus. Cloning and sequencing of almost the entire RNA1, more than the 5' half of RNA 2, and the 5' half of RNA 3 of the bacopa virus revealed that it is a distinct ilarvirus, for which we propose the name Bacopa chlorosis virus.

These have been based on spacer regions (the rDNA ITS region, the spacer region between the cox I and II gene) or specific genes (beta tubulin, elicitin) and have been configured for use by both conventional and real-time PCR. Techniques based on PCR-RFLP or single strand conformational polymorphism also have been proposed for isolate identification. In an effort to make a uniform comparison of specificity among the techniques a standard library of over 300 Phytophthora isolates representing all described species from a wide geographical range was developed. DNA was extracted and a standardized amount was sent blind to all cooperating labs for analysis using a total of 12 marker systems. The results of these evaluations and their implications for effective diagnostics of P. ramorum will be discussed.

Peptide sequences identified from the putative secreted proteins were mapped to a set of six cDNA clones from an EST sequence database derived from germinating urediniospores. Only one of the six cDNA's (containing a transaldolase catalytic site) has any similarity to proteins in GenBank, SwissPROT or other databases; the remaining five remain unidentified as to function. ORF's from the 6 proteins were submitted to protein motif searches using several web-based recognition algorithms. All six of the secreted proteins contained amino acid motifs for N- or O-linked glycosylation and protein kinase phosphorylation, but no evidence for a GPI anchor. Searches for signal peptide sequences at N-termini were inconclusive using Neural Network and Hidden Markhof model algorithms (SignalP 3.0; http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/SignalP/) possibly due to the paucity of secreted basidiomycete fungal proteins in databases. Polyclonal antibodies raised to the extracellular protein fraction from germinating urediniospores are being used to characterize and localize the proteins in the extracellular spore matrix.

The effects of phosphorous acid (PA) on dry root and top weight, and plant height of pea were determined in a greenhouse study, where plants were either inoculated or not inoculated, and the seed and foliage was either treated or not treated with various applications. PA applied as a wet seed treatment, in addition to 1, 2, or 3 foliar applications, respectively, beginning at emergence and spaced at 1-week intervals were tested. The dry root weight and top weight, and the plant height of non-inoculated plants were significantly less (P < 0.05) for plants of pea seed treated with PA than for plants of non-treated seed in 2 of 4 trials. However, dry root weight and plant height of inoculated plants were significantly greater for pea plants with seed treated only with PA than for non-treated seed in 3 of 4 trials. Dry root and top weights, and plant height of non-inoculated plants treated with 1, 2 or 3 foliar applications of PA in addition to a wet seed treatment did not consistently, significantly differ from non-inoculated, non-treated controls among trials. However, inoculated plants receiving foliar treatments in addition to a PA seed treatment were significantly greater in dry top and root weights, and plant height than the non-treated controls in 4 of 4 trials.

Two insecticide seed treatments, Poncho Beta (60 g ai clothianidin + 8 g ai beta-cyfluthrin/100,000 seed) and Gaucho (45 g ai imidacloprid/100,000 seed), and four sugar beet hybrids varying in resistance to curly top were evaluated for their influence on the control of curly top. Plots were established at two locations in southern Idaho and evaluated in July, August, and September 2005. Curly top due to natural inoculum and leaf hopper infestations occurred at both locations. Untreated, the four hybrids performed as expected with the fewest curly top symptoms on PM21 and the most on Monohikari. Both insecticide treatments lowered curly top ratings compared to the untreated check, but Poncho Beta reduced symptoms more than Gaucho on the latter two ratings. Based on contrasts, hybrids treated with Poncho Beta had increased yield, sugar content, and estimated recoverable sugar. When considering the yield parameters for only the most resistant hybrids individually, Poncho Beta did not always out perform Gaucho. Poncho Beta provided a level of control that could potentially make susceptible hybrids commercially viable.

In an effort to develop an integrated control strategies to ensure pathogen and disease free plant material at nurseries, the effects of detergents and temperature on growth and survival of Agrobacterium tumefaciens were investigated. At temperatures above 37 degree C and below 15 degree C in-vitro bacterial multiplication rates were significantly repressed. A. tumefaciens did not survive above 45 degree C. Exposure to a range of concentrations of cationic and non-ionic detergents significantly reduced bacterial survival. Exposure to the anionic detergent SDS, at 0.1% and 1% concentrations, showed limited effect on bacterial viability. Among the detergents tested, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was the most effective reducing bacterial populations below detection limits at concentrations above 0.01% (V/V). Data on the synergistic effect of combining detergent exposure with 1 to 3 freeze-thaw cycles also will be presented. The use of detergent washes combined with manipulation of pre-plant seedling storage temperatures may reduce the incidence of crown gall on walnut under orchard conditions.

However, high variability is inherent in this type of enumeration and counts may not be representative of the pathogenic population of Pythium spp. Variable regions of the internal transcribed spacer of the rDNA were used to design species-specific primers for detection and quantification of nine Pythium spp. from soils in eastern Washington. Primer pairs were designed for Pythium abappressorium, P. attrantheridium, P. heterothallicum, P. irregulare group I, P. irregulare group IV, P. paroecandrum, P. rostratifingens, P. sylvaticum, and P. ultimum and used with real-time polymerase chain reaction. Standard curves were generated for each of the species using SYBR Green I fluorescent dye for detection of amplification. Seventy-seven isolates of Pythium were screened to confirm specificity of each primer set. DNA was extracted from soil and standard curves were generated for P. irregulare group I, P. irregulare group IV, and P. ultimum to correlate populations of each species in the soil with quantities of DNA amplified from the same soil Examination of raw field soils revealed results similar to those observed in previous studies. This new technique for the quantification of Pythium spp. is rapid and accurate, and will be a useful tool in the future study of these pathogenic Pythium spp. JF - Phytopathology AU - Schroeder, K L AU - Okubara, P A AU - Tambong, J T AU - Levesque, CA AU - Paulitz, T C AD - United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service, Root Disease and Biological Control Unit, Washington State University, Pullman 99164, paulitz@wsu.edu Y1 - 2006/06// PY - 2006 DA - Jun 2006 SP - 637 EP - 647 VL - 96 IS - 6 SN - 0031-949X, 0031-949X KW - Microbiology Abstracts C: Algology, Mycology & Protozoology; Microbiology Abstracts A: Industrial & Applied Microbiology KW - Pythium ultimum KW - Pythium rostratifingens KW - Spacer KW - Identification KW - Media (selective) KW - Soil KW - USA, Washington KW - Pythium abappressorium KW - Polymerase chain reaction KW - Fluorescent indicators KW - Primers KW - Variable region KW - K 03095:Soil KW - A 01047:General KW - A 01117:Fungi UR - http://libproxy.lib.unc.edu/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/17238707?accountid=14244 L2 - http://vb3lk7eb4t.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQ%3Amicrobiologya&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:journal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Phytopathology&rft.atitle=Identification+and+Quantification+of+Pathogenic+Pythium+spp.+from+Soils+in+Eastern+Washington+Using+Real-Time+Polymerase+Chain+Reaction&rft.au=Schroeder%2C+K+L%3BOkubara%2C+P+A%3BTambong%2C+J+T%3BLevesque%2C+CA%3BPaulitz%2C+T+C&rft.aulast=Schroeder&rft.aufirst=K&rft.date=2006-06-01&rft.volume=96&rft.issue=6&rft.spage=637&rft.isbn=&rft.btitle=&rft.title=Phytopathology&rft.issn=0031949X&rft_id=info:doi/10.1094%2FPHYTO-96-0637 LA - English DB - ProQuest Environmental Science Collection N1 - Date revised - 2006-08-01 N1 - Last updated - 2015-03-25 N1 - SubjectsTermNotLitGenreText - Soil; Fluorescent indicators; Polymerase chain reaction; Spacer; Primers; Identification; Media (selective); Variable region; Pythium ultimum; Pythium abappressorium; Pythium rostratifingens; USA, Washington DO - http://dx.doi.org/10.1094/PHYTO-96-0637 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Integration of science and group decision making to derive exotic species priorities AN - 17238699; 6971612 AB - Non-native plant pests and pathogens enter the United States at an alarming rate. Pathways for entry are varied, and, while only a small percentage of exotic species prove to be invasive, early detection of successful invaders is critical to minimizing the impact of these species on agricultural and natural resources. Early detection surveys require a significant amount of resources and must therefore be directed at species that are considered high priority. Selection of exotic species for survey is a complex decision, which involves careful consideration of biology, potential for introduction and spread, and anticipated negative impacts resulting from a successful introduction. A set of criteria encompassing the aforementioned factors was developed and arranged into a logical hierarchy. 139 exotic plant pests and pathogens were evaluated against the criteria set and prioritized using the analytic hierarchy process. The resulting pest rank was not sensitive to moderate changes in the weights of the criteria. High-ranking species were selected as targets for early detection surveys implemented on a national level. The analytic hierarchy process provided the structure and transparency necessary for group decision making in the public sector and increased the efficacy of early detection by using threat level to prioritize exotic plant pathogens and pests.

These characteristics make propagation of single-race cultures difficult in environments where multiple races are present. The objectives of this study were to develop an isolated propagation system using detached leaves and test the utility of the system to study host resistance. Oat leaves were cut into 10-cm sections, disinfested with 0.5% NaOCI for 5 min, and rinsed in sterile ddH sub(2)O. Leaf section were then suspended in sterile plastic boxes by enclosing 3.5 cm of each leaf section end between 4% agar blocks amended with various chemical constituents. The exposed 3-cm portions were inoculated in an aseptic hood with P. coronata urediniospores suspended in water. Boxes were sealed and incubated in a lighted growth cabinet at 21 degree C until sporulation. Viable spores were produced on leaves in all treatments except those with Auxin and the water agar checks. Using this method, detached leaves of 16 differential oat cultivars inoculated with two isolates showed the same reactions as whole plants screened under standard conditions in a growth chamber. Initial results with other cereal rust disease caused by P. graminis f. sp. avenae, and P. triticina indicate viable urediniospores can be produced on detached leaves of the respective host.

Relatively little work has been done to characterize the immune response of WTD to M. bovis infection; however, an understanding of the immune response to infection and pathogenesis may be critical to the development of an effective vaccine. Immunological responses to infection were characterized by monitoring cytokine gene expression in M. bovis-infected and uninfected deer. Peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL) from infected WTD expressed more gamma interferon (IFN- gamma ), interleukin-12p40 (IL-12p40), granulocyte-monocyte colony-stimulating factor, and IL-4 mRNA than did PBL from uninfected deer; however, differences were not detected in expression of IL-10 and transforming growth factor-{beta} mRNA. Infected animals could be divided into two groups based on pathology. Lesions were confined primarily to the lymph nodes of the head in animals with less severe pathology. Animals with more severe pathology had lesions in the lung and associated lymph nodes as well as the lymph nodes of the head. More robust IFN- gamma mRNA expression correlated with pathology early in infection. These findings indicate that IFN- gamma expression likely plays a role in both protection and pathogenesis.

Growers have reported problems with previously unreported viruses in several economically important ornamental crop species exhibiting virus-like symptoms. Total RNA was isolated from ornamental plants exhibiting mosaic, ringspot, or flower break symptoms that were ELISA-positive using our potyviral broad-spectrum monoclonal antibody PTY-1. Potyvirus 'generic' primers were used in RT-PCR to amplify 3' terminal ca. 1600 bp fragments (includes coat protein gene and 3' NCR). PTY-1 immunocaptured (IC) virions were also used in IC-RT-PCR reactions. The resultant PCR amplicons were cloned, sequenced and compared to potyvirus sequences in the international databases. Serological and sequence analysis revealed - the identification of new potyviruses Impatiens flower break virus (in New Guinea Impatiens), Tricyrtis virus Y (in toad lily Tricyrtis formosana), Spiranthes mosaic virus 2 and Spiranthes mosaic virus 3 (in the terrestrial orchid Spiranthes cernua), and, Omphalodes virus Y (in Navelwort Omphalodes): the first reports of Dasheen mosaic virus in Spiranthes cernua and Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) in Verbena; and, previously identified reoccurring potyviruses infecting Euphorbia (Euphorbia ringspot virus), Osteospermum (Lettuce mosaic virus), and Schizostylis (BYMV).

Sequential serum samples obtained from Mycobacterium bovis-infected cattle were evaluated for seroreactivity to mycobacterial antigens. Animals received M. bovis by aerosol, intratonsil, intranasal, or intratracheal inoculation. Assays included the multiantigen print immunoassay for determination of antigen recognition patterns, immunoblot analysis for sensitive kinetic studies, and the VetTB STAT-PAK test, a novel, rapid test based on lateral-flow technology. Responses to MPB83 were detected for all M. bovis-infected animals regardless of the route or strain of M. bovis used for inoculation. Other less commonly recognized antigens included ESAT-6, CFP-10, and MPB70. Responses to MPB83 were detectable as early as 4 weeks after inoculation, were boosted upon injection of purified protein derivatives for skin testing, and persisted throughout the course of each of the four challenge studies. MPB83-specific immunoglobulin M (IgM) was detected prior to MPB83-specific IgG detection; however, early IgM responses rapidly waned, suggesting a benefit of tests that detect both IgM- and IgG-specific antibodies. The VetTB STAT-PAK test detected responses in sera from 60% (15/25) of the animals by 7 weeks after challenge and detected responses in 96% (24/25) of the animals by 18 weeks. These findings demonstrate the potential for new-generation antibody-based tests for the early detection of M. bovis infection in cattle.

The gene interrupted by Tn917 in cld-14 was the L. monocytogenes LMOf2365_1485 homolog, which exhibits 45.7% homology to the Bacillus subtilis yqfF locus. LMOf2365_1485, here designated pgpH, encodes a putative integral membrane protein with a predicted molecular mass of 81 kDa. PgpH is predicted to contain a conserved N-terminal signal peptide sequence, seven transmembrane helices, and a hydrophilic C terminus, which likely extends into the cytosol. The Tn917 insertion in pgpH is predicted to result in production of a premature polypeptide truncated at the fifth transmembrane domain. The C terminus of PgpH, which is probably absent in cld-14, contains a highly conserved HD domain that belongs to a metal-dependent phosphohydrolase family. Strain cld-14 accumulated higher levels of (p)ppGpp than the wild type accumulated, indicating that the function of PgpH may be to adjust cellular (p)ppGpp levels during low-temperature growth. The cld-14pgpH super(+) complemented strain was able to grow at a low temperature, like the parent strain, providing direct evidence that the activity of PgpH is important in low-temperature adaptation. Because of its predicted membrane location, PgpH may play a critical role in sensing the environmental temperature and altering cellular (p)ppGpp levels to allow the organism to adapt to low temperatures.

We modeled the population dynamics of the Snake River Plains ephemeral Lepidium papilliferum using data from an 11-yr artificial seed bank experiment to estimate age-specific vital rates for viability loss and germination. We related variation in postgermination demographic parameters to annual variation in precipitation patterns and used these relationships to construct a stochastic population model using precipitation driver variables. This enabled us to incorporate realistic levels of environmental variability into the model. A model incorporating best estimates for parameter values resulted in a mean trajectory for seed bank size that remained essentially stable through time, although there was a measurable risk of extinction over a 100-yr period for the study population under this scenario. Doubling the annual seed viability loss rate resulted in near-certain extinction, as did increasing first-year germination to 100%, showing the importance of the persistent seed bank. Interestingly, increasing environmental variance substantially decreased the risk of extinction, presumably because this plant relies on extremely good years to restock the persistent seed bank, while extremely bad years have little impact. If every year were average in this desert environment, the species could not persist. Simulated effects of livestock trampling resulted in greatly increased extinction risk, even over time frames as short as 15 years.

To alleviate this problem, a phytase from Aspergillus niger PhyA is widely used as a feed additive to hydrolyze phytate-phosphorus. However, it has the lowest relative activity at the pH of the stomach (3.5), where the hydrolysis occurs. Our objective was to shift the pH optima of PhyA to match the stomach condition by substituting amino acids in the substrate-binding site with different charges and polarities. Based on the crystal structure of PhyA, we prepared 21 single or multiple mutants at Q50, K91, K94, E228, D262, K300, and K301 and expressed them in Pichia pastoris yeast. The wild-type (WT) PhyA showed the unique bihump, two-pH-optima profile, whereas 17 mutants lost one pH optimum or shifted the pH optimum from pH 5.5 to the more acidic side. The mutant E228K exhibited the best overall changes, with a shift of pH optimum to 3.8 and 266% greater (P < 0.05) hydrolysis of soy phytate at pH 3.5 than the WT enzyme. The improved efficacy of the enzyme was confirmed in an animal feed trial and was characterized by biochemical analysis of the purified mutant enzymes. In conclusion, it is feasible to improve the function of PhyA phytase under stomach pH conditions by rational protein engineering.

Preparedness for a crop bioterror event requires a strong national security plan that includes steps for microbial forensics and criminal attribution. However, U.S. crop producers, consultants, and agricultural scientists have traditionally focused primarily on strategies for prevention and management of diseases introduced naturally or unintentionally rather than on responding appropriately to an intentional pathogen introduction. We assess currently available information, technologies, and resources that were developed originally to ensure plant health but also could be utilized for postintroduction plant pathogen forensics. Recommendations for prioritization of efforts and resource expenditures needed to enhance our plant pathogen forensics capabilities are presented.

Given the large number of pathogens that could be introduced, development of rapid detection methods and control strategies for every potential agent would be extremely difficult and costly. Thus, to ensure the most effective direction of resources a list of high-threat pathogens is needed. We address development of a pathogen threat assessment model based on the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) that can be applied world-wide, using the United States as an illustrative example. Previously, the AHP has been shown to work well for strategic planning and risk assessment. Using the collective knowledge of subject matter expert panels incorporated into commercial decision-making software, 17 biological and economic criteria were determined and given weights for assessing the threat of accidental or deliberately introduced pathogens. The rating model can be applied by experts on particular crops to develop threat lists, especially those of high priority, based on the current knowledge of individual diseases.

The use of specific proteins (e.g., ESAT-6, CFP-10, and MPB83), however, generally enhances the specificity of bovine tuberculosis tests. While genes for these proteins are absent from many nontuberculous mycobacteria, they are present in M. kansasii. Instillation of M. kansasii into the tonsillar crypts of calves elicited delayed-type hypersensitivity and in vitro gamma interferon and nitrite concentration responses of leukocytes to M. avium and M. bovis purified protein derivatives (PPDs). While the responses of M. kansasii-inoculated calves to M. avium and M. bovis PPDs were approximately equivalent, the responses of M. bovis-inoculated calves to M. bovis PPD exceeded their respective responses to M. avium PPD. The gamma interferon and nitrite responses of M. kansasii-inoculated calves to recombinant ESAT-6-CFP-10 (rESAT-6-CFP-10) exceeded corresponding responses of noninoculated calves as early as 15 and 30 days after inoculation, respectively, and persisted throughout the study. The gamma interferon and nitrite responses of M. bovis-inoculated calves to rESAT-6-CFP-10 exceeded the corresponding responses of M. kansasii-inoculated calves beginning 30 days after inoculation. By using a lipoarabinomannan-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, specific serum antibodies were detected as early as 50 days after challenge with M. kansasii. By a multiantigen print immunoassay and immunoblotting, serum antibodies to MPB83, but not ESAT-6 or CFP-10, were detected in M. kansasii-inoculated calves; however, responses to MPB83 were notably weaker than those elicited by M. bovis infection. These findings indicate that M. kansasii infection of calves elicits specific responses that may confound the interpretation of bovine tuberculosis tests.

Cardinal-temperature Models and Subpopulation-specific Regression AN - 17232949; 6944997 AB - times BACKGROUND: and Aims The purpose of this study was to compare the relative accuracy of different thermal-germination models in predicting germination-time under constant-temperature conditions. Of specific interest was the assessment of shape assumptions associated with the cardinal-temperature germination model and probit distribution often used to distribute thermal coefficients among seed subpopulations. times METHODS: The seeds of four rangeland grass species were germinated over the constant-temperature range of 3-38 degree C and monitored for subpopulation variability in germination-rate response. Subpopulation-specific germination rate was estimated as a function of temperature and residual model error for three variations of the cardinal-temperature model, non-linear regression and piece-wise linear regression. The data were used to test relative model fit under alternative assumptions regarding model shape. times Key Results In general, optimal model fit was obtained by limiting model-shape assumptions. All models were relatively accurate in the sub-optimal temperature range except in the 3 degree C treatment where predicted germination times were in error by as much as 70 d for the cardinal-temperature models. times CONCLUSIONS: Germination model selection should be driven by research objectives. Cardinal-temperature models yield coefficients that can be directly compared for purposes of screening germplasm. Other model formulations, however, may be more accurate in predicting germination-time, especially at low temperatures where small errors in predicted rate can result in relatively large errors in germination time.

Methods and Results:In Experiment I, faecal samples were collected from steers grazing either endophyte-infected (E+) tall fescue or common bermudagrass (CB). Steers grazing E+ tall fescue were confined to a dry-lot pen and fed CB hay ad libitum for 10 days. In Exp. II, faecal samples were collected from steers grazing either E+ or novel endophyte-infected (NE) tall fescue and treated with one of two anthelmintics: ivermectin (I) or fenbendazole (F). In Exp. I, prevalence of E. coli O157:H7 was less in E+ tall fescue steers fed CB hay than steers grazing CB. More I-treated steers shed Salmonella than F-treated steers at 42-day postanthelmintic treatment but shedding of Salmonella was similar between anthelmintics at day 63 in Exp. II. Conclusions:Faecal shedding of pathogenic bacteria was not affected by grazing E+ tall fescue. Alterations of forage diets may influence the prevalence of E. coli O157:H7, and anthelmintic treatment could affect faecal shedding of Salmonella. Significance and Impact of the Study:Knowledge of factors that influence shedding of pathogenic bacteria in cattle is necessary to develop on-farm intervention strategies aimed at reducing pathogen shedding.

Methods and Results:Bacterial strains were isolated during analysis of bryndza cheese and identified on the genus and species level by phenotypic methods and with commercial biochemical sets. The identification of the species, Enterococcus faecium, Ent. durans and Ent. faecalis, was confirmed by PCR using species-specific primers for ddl genes. PCR was also used for assessment of presence of vanA and vanB genes and virulence determinants gelE, agg and cytolysin genes namely: cylLdL, cylLdS, cylM, cylB and cylA. Among 308 Enterococcus sp. strains, 177 isolates were proved to be Ent. faecium, 59 to be Ent. durans and 41 to be Ent. faecalis. Vancomycin resistance genes vanA and vanB were not detected. Agar plate testing confirmed their absence. Gene gelE, however, was found in 20 Ent. faecalis isolates, but only 13 of them showed gelatinase-positive phenotype. Seven isolates had five cytolysin genes, but none of the isolates exhibited a positive haemolytic phenotype. Four isolates possessed the agg gene. The prevalence of Ent. faecium species was highest in samples from the winter season harvest. Conclusions:Ent. faecium is the dominant enterococcal species in bryndza cheese and the most prevalent in the winter season product. None of the Enterococcus sp. strains was proved to have vanA or vanB genes and the vancomycin resistance. Significance and Impact of the Study:To our knowledge, this is the first report of enterococcal microflora in bryndza cheese and its evaluation for the presence of vanA and vanB genes as well as virulence determinants.

These loci were characterized for 40 individuals from 24 localities throughout the species range. The number of alleles observed per locus ranged from three to 16, the observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.175 to 0.750, and the polymorphic information content ranged from 0.218 to 0.889. Cross-species transferability tested on nine species of Lesquerella and one species of the related genus Physaria indicates that these primer pairs may be useful for population genetic studies of other species in Lesquerella and possibly other closely related genera.

One such technology under development is the use of yeasts for the commercial fermentation of xylose to ethanol. Several approaches have been employed to engineer xylose metabolism. These involve modeling, flux analysis, and expression analysis followed by the targeted deletion or altered expression of key genes. Expression analysis is increasingly being used to target rate- limiting steps. Quantitative metabolic models have also proved extremely useful: they can be calculated from stoichiometric balances or inferred from the labeling of intermediate metabolites. The recent determination of the genome sequence for P. stipitis is important, as its genome characteristics and regulatory patterns could serve as guides for further development in this natural xylose-fermenting yeast or in engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Lastly, strain selection through mutagenesis, adaptive evolution or from nature can also be employed to further improve activity.

The magnitude of potential switchgrass water quality payments based on using switchgrass as an alternative energy source was also estimated. SWAT model simulations showed that between 527,000 and 1.27 million metric tons (Mg) of switchgrass could be produced annually across the basin depending upon nitrogen (N) fertilizer application levels (0-224 kgNha super(-) super(1)). The predicted reductions in sediment yield, surface runoff, NO sub(3)-N in surface runoff, and edge-of-field erosion as a result of switchgrass plantings were 99, 55, 34, and 98%, respectively. The average annual cost per hectare for switchgrass ranged from about $190 with no N applied to around $345 at 224kgNha super(-) super(1) applied. Edge-of-field break-even price per Mg ranged from around $41 with no N applied to slightly less than $25 at 224kgNha super(-) super(1) applied. A majority of the switchgrass produced had an edge-of-field break-even price of $30Mg super(-) super(1) or less. Savings of at least 50% in each of the four water quality indicators could be attained for an edge-of-field break-even price of $22-$27.49Mg super(-) super(1).

Experimental data were acquired by time-domain reflectometry (TDR) probes. TDR data were routinely collected at eight locations during the months of June and July in 1997 and in July 2003, coincident with large-scale hydrological remote sensing experiments. Analyses were performed to determine if a subset of the TDR sites could be used to represent watershed averages (i.e. sensor network averages) of soil water content at various levels in the soil profile, as well as in the total profile. The results show that two of the eight TDR sites were temporally stable. One site consistently underestimated and the other consistently overestimated watershed average soil water content at all levels in the soil profile. Because the offset between these under- and over-estimates and the watershed mean are known, these sites can be used to determine the watershed mean values of soil water content at all levels in the profile, as well as to provide ranges of soil water content within the watershed. Identification of these temporally stable sites within the LWERW will assist in the validation of coarse spatial resolution surface soil moisture products derived from remote sensing experiments, as well as providing data sets for watershed hydrologic modeling of subsurface soil water contents.

Using this method, serine proteinase activity was evaluated in gut extracts from a stored-product pest, Plodia interpunctella. With the substrate n- alpha -benzoyl- l-arginine [rho]-nitroanilide, three major groups of at least six trypsin-like activities were identified, consisting of proteinases with estimated molecular masses of 25-27, 40-41, and 289 kDa, and all with an acidic pI of 4.7-5.5. With the substrate, n-succinyl-ala-ala-pro-phenylalanine [rho]-nitroanilide, two groups of at least five chymotrypsin-like activities were detected, with estimated molecular masses of 28 and 192 kDa and pI values ranging from 6.1 to 7.3. Using the 2-DE activity blot method, information was obtained on the relative number and physical properties of serine proteinases in a mixture of insect gut proteinases without prior fractionation.

Gaertn), soft white wheat (Triticum aestivum L), short-grained white rice (Oryza sativa L.), and durra sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench). For C. cephalonica, the percentage adult emergence and several fifth-instar food use indices (consumption index, relative growth rate, and efficiencies of conversion of ingested and digested food) were significantly higher for millet-reared than for sorghum-reared larvae. The nutritional indices for wheat- and rice-reared C. cephalonica larvae were intermediate between the indices for larvae reared on millet and sorghum. The percentage adult emergence and percentage 24-h survival of T. chilonis were significantly higher on eggs of C. cephalonica hosts reared on millet than on eggs of those reared on sorghum. These results suggest that the rearing of C. cephalonica larvae on a high-quality nutritional source resulted in high-quality eggs, which ultimately resulted in high-quality T. chilonis reared on those eggs. Such an effect has been modeled in ecological theory as a 'bottom up cascade.' Improved knowledge of the nutritional ecology of parasitoids and hosts can lead to improved understanding of the ecological mechanisms affecting host plant, host, and parasitoid abundance, as well as to improved efficiency and quality of Trichogramma production in mass rearing programs.

The ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) dynamically derives such information through a Monte Carlo approach and the introduction of random noise in model states, fluxes, and/or forcing data. However, in land data assimilation, relatively little guidance exists concerning strategies for selecting the appropriate magnitude and/or type of introduced model noise. In addition, little is known about the sensitivity of filter prediction accuracy to (potentially) inappropriate assumptions concerning the source and magnitude of modeling error. Using a series of synthetic identical twin experiments, this analysis explores the consequences of making incorrect assumptions concerning the source and magnitude of model error on the efficiency of assimilating surface soil moisture observations to constrain deeper root-zone soil moisture predictions made by a land surface model. Results suggest that inappropriate model error assumptions can lead to circumstances in which the assimilation of surface soil moisture observations actually degrades the performance of a land surface model (relative to open-loop assimilations that lack a data assimilation component). Prospects for diagnosing such circumstances and adaptively correcting the culpable model error assumptions using filter innovations are discussed. The dual assimilation of both runoff (from streamflow) and surface soil moisture observations appears to offer a more robust assimilation framework where incorrect model error assumptions are more readily diagnosed via filter innovations.

6836270 AB - The rumen has long been thought to be a site of gene transfer for microorganisms. Rumen protozoa (RPz) are active predators of bacteria that can harbor antibiotic resistance genes. In this study, RPz were assessed as sites of gene transfer between two bacterial species, Salmonella and Klebsiella. One Klebsiella isolate carried a plasmid bearing bla sub(CMY-2), encoding an extended-spectrum beta -lactamase conferring ceftriaxone resistance, while the Salmonella was susceptible to ceftriaxone yet capable of thriving within protozoa. In vitro studies revealed that ceftriaxone-resistant Salmonella could be isolated following co-incubation of Salmonella and Klebsiella with RPz obtained from adult cattle and goats. Ceftriaxone-resistant Salmonella were not recovered in the presence of an inhibitor of protozoa engulfment or when a protozoa-sensitive Salmonella was part of the co- incubation. This transfer event was additionally observed in vitro for protozoa- independent stressors although at a significantly lower frequency. The gene transfer event was related to bacterial conjugation since a conjugation inhibitor, nalidixic acid, perturbed the phenomenon. Ceftriaxone-resistant Salmonella were recovered from calves, sheep, and goats co-challenged with ceftriaxone-resistant Klebsiella and ceftriaxone-sensitive Salmonella. However, the transfer event was not observed in calves and sheep that were defaunated prior to the co-challenge. Moreover, Salmonella transconjugants were isolated from separate bovine in vivo studies involving a Klebsiella donor carrying a plasmid conferring colicin activity while no such transconjugants were obtained from defaunated calves. These results provide an important basis for evaluating and preventing the spread of antibiotic resistance and other selective advantages for pathogens present in ruminants.

This technology was developed to administer bioactive compounds to monogastric animals, and has been shown to be effective for delivery of a variety of antigens in numerous fish species. Two different formulations containing two doses of vaccine (four treatments) were fed to tilapia (4 tanks of 25 fish each) for 1 (Oralject-1 and Oralject-2 each containing 2x10 super(9) cells/g of feed) day (am and pm to satiation) or 5 (Oralject-1 and -2 each containing 2x10 super(8) cells/g of feed) days (once daily to satiation). The incorporated vaccine was a patented lyophilized modified bacterin (US Patent No. 6,379,677 B1). A positive control treatment [intraperitoneally (i.p.) injected S. iniae vaccine] and a negative control treatment (i.p. injection of tryptic soy broth, TSB) were included. Mean percent intake indicated that tilapia fed for 1 day (twice to satiation) the Oralject-1 consumed significantly (P<0.05) more feed than fish fed Oralject-2 (4.05% vs. 3.21%, respectively). Fish fed for 5 days either commercial feed or Oralject-1 or -2 also showed differences in feed intake; on most days, fish consumed significantly less (P<0.05) Oralject-2 ( arrow right %) than the commercial diet or Oralject-1 ( arrow up .5%). Tilapia were challenged 23 days post-vaccination by i.p. injection of 1x10 super(6) CFU S. iniae/fish. Mean percent mortality was 47.5 (+/-7.5) in the TSB-immunized challenged tilapia and was significantly higher (P<0.001) than in all immunized groups. No mortality occurred in the i.p.-vaccinated tilapia. Mortality ranged from 17.5 to 31.25 in the Oralject(TM) treatments. Relative percent survival was 100% in the i.p.-vaccinated tilapia and 63.1% in the most effective Oralject-vaccine-treated group. The results suggest that oral delivery of the lyophilized S. iniae vaccine using Oralject(TM) technology provided protection against streptococcal disease. These data validate an initial proof-of-principle for oral vaccination of tilapia using S. iniae in the Oralject(TM) system.

AN - 67990733; 16499986 AB - The Bayesian synthesis method is applied to data from two studies of Listeria monocytogenes grown in broth monocultures to draw inferences about the joint distribution of two Baranyi growth model parameters-lag time and maximum specific growth rate. The resultant joint distribution is then combined with prior distributions for the initial and maximum pathogen density parameters under competitive growth conditions. Finally, the pathogen growth model is updated using the Sampling/Importance Resampling (SIR) algorithm with data on L. monocytogenes growth in competition with natural microflora in fish. Although the latter data provide no information on the stationary phase to directly estimate the maximum pathogen density parameter, combining them with relevant prior information provides a means to characterize L. monocytogenes growth in a food with mixed microbial populations. Based on a specified tolerance for L. monocytogenes growth, the updated model provides a storage time limit for fish held at 5 degrees C, pH 6.8, 43% CO(2), 57% N(2).

AN - 67986400; 16488038 AB - This paper reports estimated growth kinetic parameters for a cocktail of stationary phase Salmonella serotypes, pre- and post-thermal inactivation treatment. Cells were grown in brain-heart infusion broth at 25 or 37 degrees Celsius and then destruction of the cells was quantified at 55 degrees Celsius using a submerged coil heating apparatus. The surviving cells (about 1-2 log(10) cfu/ml) were subsequently grown at 25 or 37 degrees Celsius. The results indicated that lag phase duration times for the post- heat treated cells increased at 25 and 37 degrees Celsius by about 6.2 h and at least 3 to 4 h, respectively, and thus the increases appear to be truly different. However, when considering the ratios of the lag phase duration times for post-treated to pre-treated cells, a significant difference was not found, where estimated ratios could exceed 4. Estimated exponential growth rates, EGR, were not affected by the treatment, where for 37 degrees Celsius, EGR was estimated to be 0.9 log(10) (cfu/ml)/h, and at 25 degrees Celsius, the EGR was estimated at 0.45 log(10) (cfu/ml)/h.

AN - 67981177; 16708097 AB - A three-color mixing application for food safety inspection is presented. It is shown that the chromaticness of the visual signal resulting from the three-color mixing achieved through our device is directly related to the three-band ratio of light intensity at three selected wavebands. An optical visual device using three-color mixing to implement the three-band ratio criterion is presented. Inspection through human vision assisted by an optical device that implements the three-band ratio criterion would offer flexibility and significant cost savings as compared to inspection with a multispectral machine vision system that implements the same criterion. Example applications of this optical three-color mixing technique are given for the inspection of chicken carcasses with various diseases and for apples with fecal contamination. With proper selection of the three narrow wavebands, discrimination by chromaticness that has a direct relation with the three-band ratio can work very well. In particular, compared with the previously presented two-color mixing application, the conditions of chicken carcasses were more easily identified using the three-color mixing application. The novel three-color mixing technique for visual inspection can be implemented on visual devices for a variety of applications, ranging from target detection to food safety inspection.

AN - 68033121; 16749685 AB - A field experiment was conducted to measure surface dissipation and volatilization of the herbicide triallate after application to bare soil using micrometeorological, chamber, and soil-loss methods. The volatilization rate was measured continuously for 6.5 days and the range in the daily peak values for the integrated horizontal flux method was from 32.4 (day 5) to 235.2 g ha(-1) d(-1) (day 1), for the theoretical profile shape method was from 31.5 to 213.0 g ha(-1) d(-1), and for the flux chamber was from 15.7 to 47.8 g ha(-1) d(-1). Soil samples were taken within 30 min after application and the measured mass of triallate was 8.75 kg ha(-1). The measured triallate mass in the soil at the end of the experiment was approximately 6 kg ha(-1). The triallate dissipation rate, obtained by soil sampling, was approximately 334 g ha(-1) d(-1) (98 g d(-1)) and the average rate of volatilization was 361 g ha(-1) d(-1). Soil sampling at the end of the experiment showed that approximately 31% (0.803 kg/2.56 kg) of the triallate mass was lost from the soil. Significant volatilization of triallate is possible when applied directly to the soil surface without incorporation.

AN - 67900189; 16574297 AB - Fumonisins are mycotoxins that are produced by Fusarium verticillioides found in corn and corn-based foods, and are suspected human esophageal carcinogens. Exposure of rodents to fumonisin B1 causes hepatotoxicity and results in alterations in the balance between cell proliferation and apoptosis in the liver. As the cytokine tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) and the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) also modulate hepatocyte proliferation and apoptosis, we tested the hypothesis that fumonisin-induced hepatotoxicity in the liver is modulated by these factors. We examined the effects of dietary exposure to a fumonisin-containing culture material (CM) of the fungus F. verticillioides for 8 days or 5 weeks in the livers of mice lacking either TNFalpha or PPARalpha. Compared to wild-type mice TNFalpha-null mice exhibited increased hepatocyte proliferation and apoptosis. In contrast, PPARalpha-null and wild-type mice were found to exhibit similar patterns of hepatocyte apoptosis and proliferation when fed the CM diet. Overall, these findings provide evidence that TNFalpha, but not PPARalpha, plays a role in modulating fumonisin-induced hepatotoxicity in mice.

AN - 67905658; 16637696 AB - Nontarget injury from glyphosate drift is a concern among growers using non-glyphosate-resistant (non-GR) cultivars. The effects of glyphosate drift on nitrate assimilation and nitrogen fixation potential, nodule mass, and yield of non-GR soybean were assessed in a field trial at Stoneville, MS. A non-GR soybean cultivar 'Delta Pine 4748S' was treated with glyphosate at 12.5% of use rate of 0.84 kg of active ingredient/ha at 3 (V2), 6 (V7), and 8 (R2, full bloom) weeks after planting (WAP) soybean to simulate glyphosate drift. Untreated soybean was used as a control. Soybeans were sampled weekly for 2 weeks after each glyphosate treatment to assess nitrate assimilation and N2 fixation potential. Nitrate assimilation was assessed using in vivo nitrate reductase assay in leaves, stems, roots, and nodules. Nitrogen fixation potential was assessed by measuring nitrogenase activity using the acetylene reduction assay (ARA). Nitrogen content of leaves, shoots, and seed and soybean yield were also determined. In the first sampling date (4 WAP), glyphosate drift caused a significant decrease in NRA in leaves (60%), stems (77%), and nodules (50%), with no decrease in roots. At later growth stages, NRA in leaves was more sensitive to glyphosate drift than stems and roots. Nitrogenase activity was reduced 36-58% by glyphosate treatment at 3 or 6 WAP. However, glyphosate treatment at 8 WAP had no effect on nitrogenase activity. Nitrogen content was affected by glyphosate application only in shoots after the first application. No yield, seed nitrogen, protein, or oil concentration differences were detected. These results suggest that nitrate assimilation and nitrogen fixation potential were significantly reduced by glyphosate drift, with the greatest sensitivity early in vegetative growth. Soybean has the ability to recover from the physiological stress caused by glyphosate drift.

AN - 67904564; 16637679 AB - Malodors in wastewater from animal-rearing facilities are due to the presence of characteristic polar compounds. The efficiency and reproducibility of three solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fibers (Carboxen-PDMS, polyacrylate, and PDMS) as well as PDMS-coated stir bars for the measurement of some of these compounds in the liquid phase were compared. In initial experiments, the SPME fibers and stir bars were exposed to a standard water solution containing a mixture of 18 compounds with a range of octanol-water partition coefficients. The polyacrylate SPME fibers and PDMS-coated stir bars, having been found to possess the best combination of extraction efficiency and reproducibility of measurement, were compared for the extraction of a high-strength swine wastewater. Ten compounds, which are known contributors to malodors in wastewater, were quantified by both methods of extraction. For most compounds, greater levels were estimated by the PDMS-coated stir bars than by SPME, and measurement reproducibility was also greater. For both methods of extraction, there was greater variation in the measurement of volatile fatty acids than there was for aromatics.

AN - 68083018; 16670026 AB - The field of plasmid-based functional proteomics requires the rapid assay of proteins expressed from plasmid libraries. Automation is essential since large sets of mutant open reading frames are being cloned for evaluation. To date no integrated automated platform is available to carry out the entire process including production of plasmid libraries, expression of cloned genes, and functional testing of expressed proteins. We used a functional proteomic assay in a multiplexed setting on an integrated plasmid-based robotic workcell for high-throughput screening of mutants of cellulase F, an endoglucanase from the anaerobic fungus Orpinomyces PC-2. This allowed us to identify plasmids containing optimized clones expressing mutants with improved activity at lower pH. A plasmid library of mutagenized clones of the celF gene with targeted variations in the last four codons was constructed by site-directed PCR mutagenesis and transformed into Escherichia coli. A robotic picker integrated into the workcell was used to inoculate medium in a 96-well deep well plate, combining the transformants into a multiplexed set in each well, and the plate was incubated on the workcell. Plasmids were prepared from the multiplexed culture on the liquid handler component of the workcell and used for in vitro transcription/translation. The multiplexed expressed recombinant proteins were screened for improved activity and stability in an azo-carboxymethylcellulose plate assay. The multiplexed wells containing mutants with improved activity were identified and linked back to the corresponding multiplexed cultures stored in glycerol. Spread plates were prepared from the glycerol stocks and the workcell was used to pick single colonies from the spread plates, prepare plasmid, produce recombinant protein, and assay for activity. The screening assay and subsequent deconvolution of the multiplexed wells resulted in identification of improved CelF mutants and corresponding optimized clones in expression-ready plasmids. The multiplex method using an integrated automated platform for high-throughput screening in a functional proteomic assay allows rapid identification of plasmids containing optimized clones ready for use in subsequent applications including transformations to produce improved strains or cell lines.

To further support the existence of this weak interaction, the adsorption of ametryn, a triazine herbicide, was investigated in kaolinite clay, humic acid, and soil under pseudo-Fenton conditions. At a low addition rate of ferric ion, the adsorption of ametryn in clay, humic acid, and soil was enhanced due to the decreased pH resulting from the hydrolysis of ferric ion. But the pH effect was totally neutralized and the adsorption of ametryn was significantly reduced by further addition of ferric ion, demonstrating the existence of the weak interaction between ametryn and ferric acid. Further study showed that the adsorption-reduction effect of ferric ion existed not only with ametryn but also with several other triazine/triazinone herbicides. This weak interaction may accelerate the desorption process during the remediation of triazine/triazinone herbicide-contaminated soil using a Fenton/Fenton-like treatment, but it may also impede the degradation of these herbicides.

Eleven microsatellite loci were surveyed to infer the magnitude and pattern of genetic differentiation among boll weevil populations from 18 locations across eight U.S. states and northeast Mexico. Estimates of genetic diversity (allelic diversity and heterozygosity) were greater in Southern than Northern populations, and were greater in the west than the east among Northern populations. Boll weevil populations were genetically structured as a whole across the geographic range sampled, with a global F sub(ST) of 0.241. South-central populations exhibit classic isolation by distance, but evidence suggests that populations within the Eastern and Western regions have not yet reached genetic equilibrium. Gene flow appears to be relatively high among populations within the Eastern region. Population assignment data and estimates of gene flow indicate that migration between locations separated by < 300km is frequent. The database of microsatellite genotypes generated in this study now makes it possible, through population assignment techniques, to identify the most likely geographic source of a boll weevil reintroduced to an eradication zone, which will help action agencies decide the most appropriate mitigation response.

However, until efficiency and cost-effectiveness are determined, most breeders are hesitant to change methods. In this study, our goal was to compare simple sequence repeat (SSR), amplified fragment-length polymorphism (AFLP), and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) marker systems for their effectiveness in differentiating a diverse population of 24 elite broccoli (B. oleracea Italica Group) inbreds. Published SSR primer sequences for Brassica L. species were used along with AFLP and SRAP primer combinations. Several SSR primers failed to amplify DNA in the broccoli population, but all AFLP and SRAP primer combinations produced multiple bands. Twenty-nine percent of the SSR primers were monomorphic, while most of the remaining primers detected only one or two differences among inbreds. AFLP and SRAP methods produced multiple differences per primer in almost every case. Phenetic analysis revealed that the type of marker affected the classification of the genotypes. All three marker systems were able to successfully differentiate between the 24 elite inbreds, however, AFLPs and SRAPs were more efficient, making them better alternatives than SSRs over other established methods for fingerprinting B. oleracea inbreds.

AN - 68803370; 16943018 AB - A whole-genome sequence analysis of Listeria monocytogenes strain F2365 revealed 15 potential members of the Crp/Fnr family of transcriptional regulatory proteins. Each gene and the flanking regions were cloned, subjected to in vitro transpositional mutagenesis, and recombined into strain F2365. Mutant strains, produced for 14 of the family members, were compared to strain F2365 for differences in carbon utilization, resistance to oxidative stress, and growth under reduced oxygen conditions that would signal an Fnr- or Crp-like function for these proteins. There were no differences among strain F2365 and the 14 mutant strains in the utilization of the carbon sources readily utilized by L. monocytogenes. Although strain KO2 had a reduced growth rate compared to strain F2365 and the other mutant strains at 30 degrees but not at 37 degrees C, there were no differences in growth rates among strain F2365 and the mutant strains when incubated at either 30 or 37 degrees C under reduced oxygen conditions. However, when compared for differences in response to oxidative stress, mutants KO2 and KO5 showed reduced oxidative stress tolerance compared to the wild-type strain F2365. These results suggest that certain members of the putative Crp/Fnr family in L. monocytogenes may function in response to oxidative stress similar to the Fnr-like protein (Flp) of other gram-positive bacteria.

AN - 68026339; 16739016 AB - Gossypol is a sesquiterpene that occurs naturally in seed and other parts of the cotton plant. Because of restricted rotation around the binaphthyl bond, it occurs naturally as enantiomeric mixtures with (+)-gossypol to (-)-gossypol ratios that vary between 97:3 and 31:69. Commercial cotton varieties (Gossypium hirsutum) normally exhibit an approximate 3:2 ratio. (+)-Gossypol is significantly less toxic than (-)-gossypol to nonruminant animals; thus, cottonseed containing high levels of (+)-gossypol might be safely fed to nonruminants. Gossypol, however, is an important component in the cotton plant's defense against insect herbivores, but it is not known how cotton plants that exhibit high levels of (+)-gossypol in the foliage might be affected by insect herbivory. To address this question, 1-d-old Helicoverpa zea larvae were fed diets with 0.16, 0.20, and 0.24% racemic, (+)-, and (-)-gossypol. Larval pupal weights, days-to-pupation, and survival were adversely affected by all gossypol diets compared with the control diet. Statistical differences were determined by comparing the compounds among themselves at the three levels and between the three compounds at the same level. When the compounds were compared among themselves, no large differences were observed in pupal weights or in days-to-pupation among any of the diets. Among the three compounds, at the 0.16% level, the diet containing racemic gossypol was the most effective at reducing survival. At the 0.20 and 0.24% levels of racemic (+)- and (-)-gossypol, survival was not statistically different. The overall results indicate that (+)-gossypol is as inhibitory to H. zea larvae as racemic or (-)-gossypol, and thus, cotton plants containing predominantly the (+)-enantiomer in foliage may maintain significant defense against insect herbivory.

AN - 67988428; 16715796 AB - Since the mid-1990s, the beef industry has used a process called test and hold, wherein beef trim and ground beef are tested to keep products contaminated with Escherichia coli O157:H7 out of commerce. Current O157:H7 detection methods rely on a threshold level of bacterial growth for detection, which is dependent on the growth medium used. Twelve media were examined for growth and doubling time: buffered peptone water (BPW), SOC (which contains tryptone, yeast extract, KCl, MgCl2, and glucose), buffered peptone water plus SOC (BPW-SOC), Bacto-NZYM, RapidChek E. coli O157:H7 medium, BioControl EHEC8 culture medium, Neogen Reveal for E. coli O157:H7--Eight Hour medium (Neogen Reveal 8), BAX System medium for E. coli O157:H7 (BAX) BAX System medium for E. coli O157:H7 MP (BAX-MP), modified E. coli broth, nutrient medium, and tryptic soy broth (TSB). All media were tested at 37 or 42 degrees C under static or shaking conditions. The eight media with the highest total CFU per milliliter and most rapid doubling times were BPW-SOC, NZYM, RapidChek, EHEC8, Neogen Reveal 8, BAX, BAX-MP, and TSB. The ability of these eight media to enrich E. coli O157:H7 in ground beef was further evaluated through time-course experiments using immunomagnetic separation. Of these media, TSB was the easiest to prepare, had a wide application base, and was the least expensive. In the test-and-hold process, the normal ratio of medium to product is 1:10. In this study, a 1:3 ratio worked as well as a 1:10 ratio. Processors using test-and-hold procedures could use 1 liter of TSB to enrich for E. coli O157:H7 in a 375-g sample instead of the usual 3.375 liters, thus saving reagents, time, and labor while maintaining accuracy.

AN - 67986128; 16715801 AB - Foodborne Campylobacter-associated gastroenteritis remains a public health concern, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggests that improperly handled poultry is the most important source of this human disease. In response to these concerns, 10 of the largest U.S. poultry integrators cooperatively determined the incidence and counts of Campylobacter on processed broiler carcasses. Prior to conducting the survey, laboratory personnel were trained in a direct Campy-Cefex plating procedure for enumeration of the organism. Before and after the survey enumeration, consistency in reporting was compared among the participating laboratories. Participating laboratories were able to consistently estimate inoculated concentrations of Campylobacter in carcass rinses. Within the central study, we determined the potential exposure of U.S. consumers to Campylobacter spp. associated with broiler carcasses during a 13-month period. Among each of the 13 participating poultry complexes, rinses from 25 randomly selected fully processed carcasses were sampled monthly from individual flocks. Among 4200 samples, approximately 74% of the carcasses yielded no countable Campylobacter cells. Campylobacter spp. were isolated from approximately 3.6% of all commercially processed broiler carcasses at more than 10(5) CFU per carcass. Acceptable counts of these organisms on raw poultry carcasses remain to be determined. Nevertheless, this survey indicates industry recognition of its responsibility to assess and reduce public exposure to Campylobacter through broiler chickens.

AN - 67978565; 16704838 AB - Agricultural fairs exhibiting livestock are increasingly implicated in human Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli O157:H7 (STEC O157:H7) outbreaks. To estimate livestock STEC O157:H7 prevalence at US fairs, we collected 2,919 fecal specimens at 29 county fairs in 2 states and at 3 state fairs in 2002. Fly pools were also collected. STEC O157:H7 was isolated from livestock at 31 (96.9%) of 32 fairs, including 11.4% of 1,407 cattle, 1.2% of 1,102 swine, 3.6% of 364 sheep and goats, and 5.2% of 154 fly pools. Cattle, swine, and flies at some fairs shared indistinguishable STEC O157:H7 isolate subtypes. In 2003, a total of 689 ambient environmental samples were collected at 20 fairgrounds 10-11 months after 2002 livestock sampling while fairgrounds were livestock-free. Four beef barn environmental samples at 3 fairgrounds yielded STEC O157:H7. These data suggest that STEC O157 is common and transmissible among livestock displayed at agricultural fairs and persists in the environment after the fair.

AN - 67975250; 16463173 AB - The antioxidative stress-response system is essential to fungi for tolerating exposure to phenolic compounds. We show how this system can be targeted to improve fungal control by using compounds that inhibit the fungal mitochondrial respiratory chain. Targeting mitochondrial superoxide dismutase with selected phenolic acid derivatives (e.g., vanillyl acetone) resulted in a 100- to 1,000-fold greater sensitivity to strobilurin or carboxin fungicides. This synergism is significantly greater with strobilurin than with carboxin, suggesting that complex III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain is a better target than complex II for fungal control, using phenolics. These results show certain natural compounds are effective synergists to commercial fungicides and can be used for improving control of food-contaminating pathogens. These results suggest that the use of such compounds for fungal control can reduce environmental and health risks associated with commercial fungicides, lower cost for control, and the probability for development of resistance.

AN - 67855840; 16602068 AB - The benzophenones are a new class of agricultural fungicides that demonstrate protectant, curative and eradicative/antisporulant activity against powdery mildews. The chemistry is represented in the marketplace by the fungicide metrafenone, recently introduced by BASF and discussed in the following paper. The benzophenones show no evidence of acting by previously identified biochemical mechanisms, nor do they show cross-resistance with existing fungicides. The value of microscopy in elucidating fungicide mode of action is demonstrated through identification of the effects of an early benzophenone, eBZO, on mildew development. eBZO caused profound alterations in the morphology of powdery mildews of both monocotyledons and dicotyledons, affecting multiple stages of fungal development, including spore germination, appressorial formation, penetration, surface hyphal morphology and sporogenesis. Identification of analogous effects of eBZO on sporulation in the model organism Aspergillus nidulans (Eidam) Winter provides a unique opportunity to elucidate important morphogenetic regulatory sites in the economically important obligate pathogens, the powdery mildews. Benzophenones provide a further example of the benefits of whole-organism testing in the search for novel fungicide modes of action. Copyright 2006 Society of Chemical Industry.

AN - 67831563; 16585618 AB - Establishment of a petroleum refinery in 1916 near the headwaters of Bayou Trepagnier with subsequent dredging of the bayou resulted in spoil banks containing high levels of Pb. A large swamp abuts the eastern bank of the bayou. Cores were taken from 15 baldcypress [Taxodium distichum (L.) Richard] trees growing in the swamp along a 610-m transect (nine trees) and a 183-m transect (six trees) running perpendicular from the spoil bank. The cores were crossdated, annual rings were measured, and 5-yr segments of the cores were prepared and analyzed for heavy metals. Soil samples were collected along one transect and analyzed for metals. Levels of Pb in Bayou Trepagnier swamp trees were compared to levels in nine baldcypress trees growing along Stinking Bayou, a reference area. During the last 100 yr, Pb in growth rings of swamp baldcypress trees averaged 8.6 mg/kg (SD 4.88) along one transect and 7.9 mg/kg (SD 5.39) along the other. Lead in the soil along the first transect dropped from >2700 mg/kg (spoil bank) to 10 mg/kg at 420 m into the swamp. Baldcypress trees growing near the refinery on the spoil bank along Bayou Trepagnier (covered in an earlier study) averaged 4.5 mg/kg Pb, and trees along Stinking Bayou averaged 2.1 mg/kg. Trees in the swamp soil with 10 to 425 mg/kg Pb concentrated much more Pb than trees growing on the heavily polluted bank. Greater uptake of Pb by trees in the swamp is discussed in terms of soil dynamics and Pb sources.

AN - 67806317; 16485162 AB - Methods that are more cost-effective and objective are needed to detect important vegetation change within acceptable error rates. The objective of this research was to compare visual estimation to three new methods for determining vegetation cover in the sagebrush steppe. Fourteen management units at the US Sheep Experiment Station were identified for study. In each unit, 20 data collection points were selected for measuring plant cover using visual estimation, laser-point frame (LPF), 2 m above-ground-level (AGL) digital imagery, and 100-m AGL digital imagery. In 11 of 14 management units, determinations of vegetation cover differed (P < 0.05). However, when combined, overall determinations of vegetation cover did not differ. Standard deviation, corrected sums of squares, coefficient of variation, and standard error for the 100 m AGL method were half as large as for the LPF and less than the 2-m AGL and visual estimate. For the purpose of measuring plant cover, all three new methods are as good as or better than visual estimation for speed, standard deviation, and cost. The acquisition of a permanent image of a location is an important advantage of the 2 and 100 m AGL methods because vegetation can be reanalyzed using improved software or to answer different questions, and changes in vegetation over time can be more accurately determined. The reduction in cost per sample, the increased speed of sampling, and the smaller standard deviation associated with the 100-m AGL digital imagery are compelling arguments for adopting this vegetation sampling method.

A rejoinder AN - 36459700; 3337621 AB - The Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) pays farmers about $2 billion per year to retire cropland under ten- to fifteen-year contracts. Recent research by Wu (2000) found that slippage-an unintended stimulus of new plantings-offsets some of CRP's environmental benefits. In a comment on Wu, we argued CRP enrollments were endogenous and confounded by omitted variables. In his reply, Wu (2005) used results from a Hausman test to argue that CRP enrollments are exogenous. In this rejoinder, we explain why the candidate instrument (erodibility) is likely confounded by omitted variables, so Wu's use of the Hausman test is uninformative.

Without careful planning and implementation, these tools may temporarily control the weeds but may ultimately have minimal influence on ecological processes, fail over the long term, and lead to weed reinvasion. This can result from the lack of a broad ecological perspective. Successional management provides a process-based framework for weed ecologists to develop and test integrated weed management strategies and for land managers to organize implementation of these strategies in a way that adequately addresses ecological processes. This framework offers land managers practical methods for modifying ecological processes to direct plant community composition away from invasive species and toward desired plant assemblages. To date, successional management has not gained widespread application because, in part, it has not been conceptually linked to other successional models. Therefore, we illustrate how other successional models can be incorporated within the framework. Incorporating other prevailing successional models will further elucidate ecological processes, offer additional management strategies, and widen the possibilities for ecologically based management of rangeland weeds. Approaching management of weed-infested rangeland through this process-based framework will enable managers to implement strategies that maximize the likelihood of success because these methods will be integrated based on ecological principles. Successional management should be adjusted as we gain a better understanding of the factors that drive succession.

Invasions are often composed of dense patches, and it is unclear whether clonal growth via lateral rhizomes or seedling recruitment is the dominant method of patch expansion. To study the clonal structure of this invasive, six patches from three USA populations (194 ramets) were analyzed with the use of Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphisms (AFLPs). Known siblings and clones were also included to ensure sufficient variation for discrimination between clonal and nonclonal ramets. Patches had low genet/ramet ratios (mean G/N = 0.25) and low diversity levels (mean D = 0.49) compared to similar clonal studies. Single genets represented 55-85% of the ramets sampled in a patch, and the largest genet was 38 m across. Hoary cress exhibits a strong bias toward patch-size increase from clonal reproduction rather than from seedling recruitment. Results indicate that biological control methods that focus on reducing or eliminating seed production would do little to stop expansion of a patch. Despite the domination of a patch by one or a few large genets, other smaller genets are able to persist or are occasionally recruited into dense areas of a patch.Nomenclature: Hoary cress, Lepidium draba L.

Initially, UV-C resistance of 20 bacterial strains from different genera often associated with fresh produce (Enterobacter, Erwinia, Escherichia, Leuconostoc, Pantoea, Pseudomonas, Rahnela, Salmonella, Serratia and Yersinia) were tested in vitro. Most of the bacterial strains were inhibited with the minimum dose (30Jm super(-) super(2)). Erwinia carotovora, Leuconostoc carnosum, Salmonella typhimurium, and Yersinia aldovae were the most resistant strains requiring a UV-C dose of 85Jm super(-) super(2) to completely inhibit growth. An in vivo study consisted of treating minimally processed 'Red Oak Leaf' lettuce (Lactuca sativa) with UV-C at three radiation doses (1.18, 2.37 and 7.11kJm super(-) super(2)) on each side of the leaves and storing the product under passive MAP conditions at 5 super(o)C for up to 10 days. The gas composition inside packages varied significantly among the treatments, with CO sub(2) concentrations positively and O sub(2) concentrations negatively correlating with the radiation dose. All the radiation doses were effective in reducing the natural microflora of the product, although the highest doses showed the greatest microbial inhibitions. Taking into account the microbial limit set by Spanish legislation [Boletin Oficial del Estado (BOE), 2001. Normas de higiene para la elaboracion, distribucion y comercio de comidas preparadas, Madrid, Spain, Real Decreto 3484/2000, pp. 1435-1441], all UV-C treatments extended the shelf-life of the product. However, the 7.11kJm super(-) super(2) dose induced tissue softening and browning after 7 days of storage at 5 super(o)C. Therefore, the use of two sided UV-C radiation, at the proper dose, is effective in reducing the natural microflora and extending the shelf-life of minimally processed 'Red Oak Leaf' lettuce.

AN - 20722495; 7237427 AB - Reduction of seed-bank persistence is an important goal for weed management systems. Recent interest in more biological-based weed management strategies has led to closer examination of the role of soil microorganisms. Incidences of seed decay with certain weed species occur in the laboratory; however, their persistence in soil indicates the presence of yet-unknown factors in natural systems that regulate biological mechanisms of seed antagonism by soil microorganisms. A fundamental understanding of interactions between seeds and microorganisms will have important implications for future weed management systems targeting seed banks. Laboratory studies demonstrate susceptibility to seed decay among weed species, ranging from high (velvetleaf) to very low (giant ragweed). Microscopic examinations revealed dense microbial assemblages formed whenever seeds were exposed to soil microorganisms, regardless of whether the outcome was decay. Microbial communities associated with seeds of four weed species (woolly cupgrass, jimsonweed, Pennsylvania smartweed, and velvetleaf) were distinct from one another. The influence of seeds on microbial growth is hypothesized to be due to nutritional and surface-attachment opportunities. Data from velvetleaf seeds suggests that diverse assemblages of bacteria can mediate decay, whereas fungal associations may be more limited and specific to weed species. Though microbial decay of seeds presents clear opportunities for weed biocontrol, limited success is met when introducing exogenous microorganisms to natural systems. Alternatively, a conservation approach that promotes the function of indigenous natural enemies through habitat or cultural management may be more promising. A comprehensive ecological understanding of the system is needed to identify methods that enhance the activities of microorganisms. Herein, we provide a synthesis of the relevant literature available on seed microbiology; we describe some of the major challenges and opportunities encountered when studying the in situ relationships between seeds and microorganisms, and present examples from studies by the ARS Invasive Weed Management Unit.Nomenclature: Giant ragweed, Ambrosia trifida L.; jimsonsweed, Datura stramonium L.; Pennsylvania smartweed, Polygonum pensylvanicum L.; velvetleaf, Abutilon theophrasti Medic.; woolly cupgrass, Eriochloa gracilis (Fourn) A.

Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac), the causal agent of citrus bacterial canker disease, is a notable example of such a pathogen. The appearance of novel strains of the pathogen in Florida and elsewhere make it increasingly important to understand the relationships among strains of this pathogen. USDA-ARS at Beltsville, Maryland maintains approximately 700 herbarium specimens with citrus canker disease lesions up to 90 years old, originally collected from all over the world, and so is an important resource for phytogeographic studies of this bacterium. Unfortunately, DNA in herbarium specimens is degraded and may contain high levels of inhibitors of PCR. In this study, we compared a total of 23 DNA isolation techniques in combination with 31 novel primer pairs in order to develop an efficient protocol for the analysis of Xac DNA in herbarium specimens. We identified the most reliable extraction method, identified in terms of successful amplification by our panel of 31 primer pairs. We also identified the most robust primer pairs, identified as successful in the largest number of extracts prepared by different methods. We amplified Xac genomic sequences up to 542 bp long from herbarium samples up to 89 years old. Primers varied in effectiveness, with some primer pairs amplifying Xac DNA from a 1/10,000 dilution of extract from a single lesion from a citrus canker herbarium specimen. Our methodology will be useful to identify pathogens and perform molecular analyses of bacterial and possibly fungal genomes from herbarium specimens.

Timing of irrigation applications was controlled by the biologically identified optimal temperature interactive console (BIOTIC) protocol, which used stress time (ST) and a crop-specific optimum temperature to indicate water stress. ST was the cumulative daily time quantity when cotton canopy temperature exceeded 28 degree C. STs between 5.5 and 8.5 h in 1 h increments were irrigation signal criteria, which produced different irrigation regimes. This investigation examined the association among ST, daily average canopy temperature (T sub(c)), canopy and air temperature difference (T sub(c)-T sub(a)), and the relative crop water stress index (RCWSI) including their relationship with lint yield. Number of irrigation signals decreased linearly with ST at the rate of -10.2 and -8.7 irrigations per 1 h increase of ST in 2003 and 2004. There were significant curvilinear relationships between ST and the average daily stress on days with irrigation signals and for days without irrigation signals across years. The percentage of positive daily (T sub(c)-T sub(a)) values increased with ST level. ST and T sub(c) were positively related in all irrigation signal treatments with 5.5 and 6.5 h being significant in 2003 and 2004. Yield declined at the rate of 343 kg lint/ha for each 1 h increase of ST for days with irrigation signals. ST, mathematically the most simple of the canopy temperature-based parameters, provided the most consistent estimate of crop water stress and correlation with lint yield. The power of ST to characterize water stress effects on crop productivity evolves from being an integrated value of time while canopy temperature exceeds a physiologically based threshold value.

We used seed-augmentation and grass-removal experiments under different canopy conditions to assess the relative importance of dispersal limitation, resource availability, and competition on seedling establishment in the understory shrubs Sophora chrysophilla, Dodonea viscosa, and Pipturus albidus in a montane mesic forest in Hawaii. The study location was an Acacia koa-Metrosideros polymorpha forest at 1000-1500 m elevation on the leeward side of Hawaii Island; it is a closed-canopy forest historically subject to logging and grazing by cattle and sheep and currently dominated by the exotic grass, Ehrharta stipoides, in the herb layer. Seedling establishment after 1 and 2 years was strongly dispersal limited in Sophora and Dodonea, but not in Acacia, a non-augmented species in which abundant seedlings established, nor in Pipterus, in which only one seedling established in 2 years. Grass cover reduced seedling establishment in Acacia, Sophora, and Dodonea and, for the latter two species, seedling establishment was substantially greater in the warmer, more moist forest at the lowest elevation. Light, moisture, and resin-captured N and P were more strongly affected by elevation and canopy composition than by grass cover, but in most cases seedling establishment was not positively correlated with resource availability. Limitations to the establishment of woody seedlings in this forest-grassland mixture vary among species; however, both dispersal limitation and competition from a shade-tolerant grass are important deterrents to regeneration in these forests.

Soils were collected under old-growth Abies spp. stands across approximately 1 km and bioassayed with seedlings of hosts that establish best in stronger light (Pinus jeffreyi) or that are shade-tolerant (Abies concolor). Ectomycorrhizal fungi colonizing the roots were characterized with molecular techniques (ITS- RFLP and DNA sequence analysis). Wilcoxina, five Rhizopogon species and Cenococcum were the most frequent of 17 detected species. No spatial structure was detected in the resistant propagule community as a whole, but P. jeffreyi seedlings had higher species richness and associated with seven Rhizopogon species that were not detected on A. concolor seedlings. We drew two conclusions from comparisons between this study and a prior study of the ectomycorrhizal community on mature trees in the same forest: (i) the resistant propagule community was considerably simpler and more homogeneous than the active resident community across the forest and (ii) Cenococcum and Wilcoxina species are abundant in both communities.

It is the most significant disease of bananas and plantains (Musa spp.) because most of the economically important cultivars of exported and staple commodities are highly susceptible. The Caribbean is one of the few regions of the world where black Sigatoka is not widespread. Black Sigatoka has been reported in the Bahamas, Cuba, Hispaniola, and Jamaica. Yellow Sigatoka, caused by M. musicola Leach (anamorph P. musae (Zimm.) Deighton), has been recognized in Puerto Rico since 1938-1939. In August 2004, symptoms resembling black Sigatoka were first observed in Anasco, Puerto Rico by extension personnel from the University of Puerto Rico. Since black and yellow Sigatoka produce similar disease symptoms, a survey was conducted in the western banana- and plantain-production region of Puerto Rico to confirm the presence of black Sigatoka. Leaf samples were collected from production fields near the towns of Las Marias, Maricao, and Anasco. Single-ascospore isolates were recovered using the discharge technique from moistened pseudothecia in necrotic lesions that were inverted over water agar, and ascospores were transferred to potato dextrose agar. The isolates were subcultured in potato dextrose broth for mycelium production. DNA was isolated from mycelium with the FastDNA kit (Q-Biogen, Irvine, CA) for 19 isolates. Internal transcribed spacer as well as the 5.8s rDNA regions were polymerase chain reaction amplified with primers specific to M. fijiensis or M. musicola. Amplification products ( similar to 1,100 bp) were observed for 18 of the 19 isolates, 6 of which were M. fijiensis and the remaining 12 were M. musicola, while the positive controls for both species were also amplified with the respective primer pairs. M. fijiensis was recovered from production fields close to all three towns. The source of M. fijiensis in Puerto Rico is unclear, but it may have originated from introduced leaf material and/or wind dispersed ascospores from neighboring countries. The presence of black Sigatoka in Puerto Rico will most likely increase production costs where fungicide applications will be needed to maintain yields. The USDA-ARS, Tropical Agriculture Research Station is the official Musa spp. germplasm repository for the National Plant Germplasm System. As such, efforts are underway to introduce and evaluate black Sigatoka disease-resistant clones that can satisfy local and export market criteria.

Before such a practice is considered viable, however, it must be demonstrated that the forest ecosystem is capable of absorbing the nutrients contained in poultry manure, especially nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). From the forestry perspective, it must also be demonstrated that tree growth is not diminished. We investigated these questions using loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) stands growing in central Mississippi in an area of high poultry production. Stockpiled broiler litter was applied to newly thinned, 8-yr-old stands at 0, 4.6, and 18.6 dry Mg ha super(-1), supplying 0, 200, and 800 kg N ha super(-1) and 0, 92, and 370 kg P ha super(-1), respectively. Levels of nitrate in soil water, monitored at a 50-cm depth with porous cup tension lysimeters, exceeded 10 mg N L super(-1) during the first two years after application in the 18.6 Mg ha super(-1) rate but only on two occasions in the first year for the lower rate of application. Phosphate was largely absent from lysimeter water in all treatments. Other macronutrients (K, Ca, Mg, S) were elevated in lysimeter water in proportion to litter application rates. Soil extractable nitrate showed similar trends to lysimeter water, with substantial elevation during the first year following application for the 18.6 Mg ha super(-1) rate. Mehlich III-extractable phosphate peaked in excess of 100 mu g P g super(-1) soil during the third year of the study for the 18.6 Mg ha super(-1) rate. The 4.6 Mg ha super(-1) rate did not affect extractable soil P. Tree growth was increased by the poultry litter. Total stem cross-sectional area, or basal area, was approximately 20% greater after 2 yr for both rates of litter application. Overall, the nutrients supplied by the 4.6 Mg ha super(-1) rate were contained by the pine forest and resulted in favorable increases in tree growth. The higher rate, by contrast, did pose some risk to water quality through the mobilization of nitrate. These results show that, under the conditions of this study, application of poultry litter at moderate rates of approximately 5 Mg ha super(-1) to young stands of loblolly pine offers an alternative disposal option with minimal impacts to water quality and potential increases in tree growth.

TAN removal rates ranged up to about 200 g TAN/m super(3) of media per day for each of the units. Peak rates of 244 g TAN/m super(3) of media per day were observed when the recirculating flow was boosted by 20%. Roughly 75% of the removal was accomplished by the fluidized sand filter an observation that is consistent with the difference between the fluidized sand filter volume (0.92 m super(3)) and the bead filter media volume (0.28 m super(3)). The bead filter's primary function was clarification. At the highest daily feed load, over 570 g dry weight of solids were removed during each daily bead filter backwashing event. A 20% increase in flow, at the same daily feed rate, improved solids removal to over 670 g dry weight per bead filter backwash event. The PWBF and FSF combination provided suitable water quality for fish production; however, further increases in feed loading were limited by carbon dioxide buildup and oxygen limitations.

Social science research is shown to have small, lagged but significant effects on U.S. agricultural efficiency when public agricultural R&D and extension are simultaneously taken into account. Farm management and marketing research variables are used to explain variations in estimates of allocative and technical efficiency using a Bayesian approach that incorporates stylized facts concerning lagged research impacts in a way that is less restrictive than popular polynomial distributed lags. Results are reported in terms of means and standard deviations of estimated probability distributions of parameters and long-run total multipliers. Extension is estimated to have a greater impact on both allocative and technical efficiency than either R&D or social science research.

One such approach involves the use of greater sage-grouse, a species of prominent conservation interest, as an umbrella species. This shortcut approach assumes that managing habitats to conserve sage-grouse will simultaneously benefit other species of conservation concern. The efficacy of using sage-grouse as an umbrella species for conservation management, however, has not been fully evaluated. We tested that concept by comparing: (1) commonality in land-cover associations, and (2) spatial overlap in habitats between sage-grouse and 39 other sagebrush-associated vertebrate species of conservation concern in the Great Basin ecoregion. Overlap in species' land- cover associations with those of sage-grouse, based on the (phi) correlation coefficient, was substantially greater for sagebrush obligates [image] than non-obligates [image]. Spatial overlap between habitats of target species and those associated with sage-grouse was low (mean = 0.23), but somewhat greater for habitats at high risk of displacement by cheatgrass (mean = 0.33). Based on our criteria, management of sage-grouse habitats likely would offer relatively high conservation coverage for sagebrush obligates such as pygmy rabbit (mean = 0.84), but far less for other species we addressed, such as lark sparrow (mean = 0.09), largely due to lack of commonality in land-cover affinity and geographic ranges of these species and sage-grouse.

Primers and probe were designed from the 16S rRNA gene of the Columbia Basin potato purple top phytoplasma, which is closely related to the beet leafhopper transmitted virescence agent. The detection limit in phytoplasma-infected tomato DNA was approximately 50 pg. The concentration of phytoplasma varied considerably among potato plants showing symptoms of purple top. The pathogen was readily detected in extracts from single or groups of five beet leafhoppers. As with infected potatoes, the concentration of phytoplasma in individual leafhoppers was variable. The assay also detected aster yellows (group 16SrI) and pigeon pea witches'-broom (group 16SrIX) phytoplasmas in infected periwinkle plants. The real-time PCR was at least as sensitive as the commonly used and more labor-intensive nested PCR for detection of the pathogen.

Cells grown in each medium were tested for susceptibility to and productivity of various multiply embedded nucleopolyhedroviruses. The three lines chosen for these experiments fall into three categories of relative growth in SFM versus TC-100: LdFB cells grew similarly in each medium, LdEIta grew better in Ex-Cell than in TC-100, and AG-286 grew better in TC-100 than in Ex-Cell. The susceptibility of cells to infection also varies, although without any apparent correlation to which medium was best for supporting growth. Endpoint assays suggested that LdFB cells grown in serum-containing medium are more susceptible to virus infection than their SFM counterparts, while the opposite is true for LdEIta cells. Production of virus, based on numbers of occlusion bodies, showed fewer differences with only AcMNPV production with AG-286 in TC-100 being statistically higher than production of the same virus in Ex-cell 400. These studies suggest that long-term passage in alternative media may impact the ability of cells to support virus infection and replication, but the effects on each cell line and virus system need to be determined.

Between 2000 and 2001, 21 surface soils (0 to 5 cm depth) with known management histories were collected from various sites in Leflore, Sunflower, and Washington counties of Mississippi. Atrazine degradation was assessed in 30-d laboratory studies using super(14)C-ring-labeled herbicide. Mineralization was extensive in all soils with a history of one to three atrazine applications with cumulative mineralization over 30 d ranging from 45 to 72%. In contrast, cumulative mineralization of atrazine from three soils with no atrazine history was only 5 to 10%. However, one soil with no history of atrazine application mineralized 54 and 29% of the atrazine in soils collected in 2000 and 2001, respectively. Methanol extracted 15 to 23% of the super(14)C-atrazine 7 d after treatment in soils having two applications within the past 6 yr, whereas 65 to 70% was extracted from no-history soils. First-order kinetic models indicated soil with 2 yr of atrazine exposure exhibited a half-life of less than 6 d. Most probable number (MPN) estimates of atrazine-ring mineralizing-microorganisms ranged from 450 to 7,200 propagules g super(-1) in atrazine-exposed soils, and none were detected in soils with no history of atrazine use. Although most soils exhibited rapid atrazine mineralization, analysis of DNA isolated from these soils by direct or nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) failed to amplify DNA sequences with primers for the atzA atrazine chlorohydrolase gene. These results indicate that microbial populations capable of accelerated atrazine degradation have developed in Mississippi Delta soils. This may reduce the weed control efficacy of atrazine but also reduce the potential for off-site movement. Studies are continuing to identify the genetic basis of atrazine degradation in these soils.Nomenclature: Atrazine; cyanazine; DEA, de-ethyl atrazine; DIA, de-isopropyl atrazine; corn, Zea mays L.; cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L.

Tubers and flowers of calla responded differently to AMF inoculation. Differences in mycorrhizal responsiveness between cultivars was related to differences in P requirements for flower and tuber production, and the influence of P supply on resource allocation to different reproductive strategies. Inoculation increased shoot production and promoted early flowering, particularly in 2003. Inoculated plants also produced larger tubers than non-inoculated plants, but only increased the number of flowers per plant in 2003. High P supply also increased tuber biomass, but decreased the number of flowers per plant in 2002. Plants grown at a moderate P-rate, produced the most flowers in 2003. For 'Majestic Red', benefits from AMF were primarily in terms of tuber yield and composition, and AMF effects on marketable flower production could potentially have negative impact on production strategies for growers. Inoculation of 'Pot of Gold' primarily influenced flower production and aspects of tuber quality that caused detectable enhancement of tuber yield and flowering in the second growing cycle following inoculation (2003). The results of this study show that the responses of calla to AMF are partially a function of how nutrient supply alters resource allocation to sexual and vegetative reproduction. Whether AMF-induced changes in resource allocation to flowering and tubers significantly alters commercial productivity and quality of calla depends on the crop production goals (e.g. tubers, cut flowers or potted plants).

Examining specific cation and anion effects on electrode-immobilized cytochrome c AN - 19773469; 6890913 AB - Cytochrome c immobilized on alkylthiol self-assembled monolayers exhibits a characteristic Fe(II)/Fe(III) redox signal that is lost when exposed to ionic liquids composed of a butylimidazolium cation combined with either hexafluorophosphate or bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide anion. In this study it was shown that exposure to the aqueous solubilized ionic liquid components, butyl-, hexyl-, and octyl-imidazolium cations and hexafluorophosphate, tetrafluoroborate, and bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide anions, resulted in partial electrochemical signal loss. Absorbance and fluorescence measurements showed that signal loss due to the cationic ionic liquid component followed a different mechanism than that of the anionic component. Although a portion of the signal was recoverable, irreversible signal loss also occurred in both cases. The source of the irreversible component is suggested to be the loss of protein secondary structure through complexation between the ionic liquid components and the protein surface residues. The reversible electrochemical signal loss is likely due to interfacial interactions imposed between the electrode and the cytochrome heme group. The influence of the amount of exposed surface residues was explored with a simplified model protein, microperoxidase- 11.

Like several other invasive forest pests, the EAB likely was introduced and became established in a highly urbanized setting, facilitated by international trade and abundant hosts. Up to 15 million ash trees in urban and forested settings have been killed by the EAB. Quarantines in the United States and Canada restrict the movement of ash trees, logs, and firewood to prevent new introductions. Research studies are underway to assist managers leading eradication and containment efforts. Long-term efforts will be needed to protect ash in urban and forested settings across North America.

This three-staged RBC system was configured with stages 1 and 2 possessing approximately the same total surface area and stage 3 having approximately 25% smaller. The total surface area provided by the RBC equaled 13,380 m super(2). Ammonia removal efficiency averaged 31.5% per pass for all systems examined, which equated to an average ( plus or minus standard deviation) total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) areal removal rate of 0.43 plus or minus 0.16 g/m super(2)/day. First-order ammonia removal rate (K sub(1)) constants for stages 1-3 were 2.4, 1.5, and 3.0 h super(-1), respectively. The nitrite first-order rate constants (K sub(2)) were higher, averaging 16.2 h super(-1) for stage 1, 7.7 h super(-1) for stage 2, and 9.0 h super(-1) stage 3. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) levels decreased an averaged 6.6% per pass across the RBC. Concurrently, increasing influent DOC concentrations decreased ammonia removal efficiency. With respect to dissolved gas conditioning, the RBC system reduced carbon dioxide concentrations approximately 39% as the water flowed through the vessel. The cumulative feed burden - describes the mass of food delivered to the system per unit volume of freshwater added to the system daily - ranged between 5.5 and 7.3 kg feed/m super(3) of freshwater; however, there was no detectable relationship between the feed loading rate and ammonia oxidation performance.

Our study was conducted in the sub-alpine lentic habitats of three wilderness areas that form the core of the Klamath-Siskiyou Bioregion of northern California, a biodiversity 'hotspot' that supports the highest diversity of sub-alpine, lentic-breeding amphibians in the western USA. These wilderness areas contain no native fishes, but all have been populated with non-native trout for recreational fishing. Five of the eight amphibian species that occur in this region were sufficiently common to use in our study; these included one that breeds in both temporary and permanent waters and is palatable to fish (Pacific treefrog, Pseudacris regilla), two that breed primarily in permanent waters and are unpalatable to fish (western toad, Bufo boreas, and rough-skinned newt, Taricha granulosa), and two that breed primarily in permanent waters and are palatable to fish (Cascades frog, Rana cascadae, and long-toed salamander, Ambystoma macrodactylum). Based on life histories and predator defence strategies (i.e. palatable or not), we predicted that the three palatable species would likely be negatively correlated with introduced trout, but with P. regilla less impacted because of its use of both temporary and permanent waters. We predicted that B. boreas and T. granulosa would not be significantly correlated with introduced trout due to the lack of any predator/prey interactions between them. We surveyed 728 pond, lake, or wet meadow sites during the summers of 1999-2002, using timed gill-net sets to measure trout occurrence and relative density, and visual encounter surveys to determine amphibian presence and abundance. We used semiparametric logistic regression models to quantify the effect of trout presence/absence and density on the probability of finding amphibian species in a water body while accounting for variation within and among the various lentic habitats sampled. The distributions of P. regilla, A. macrodactylum and R. cascadae were strongly negatively correlated with trout presence across all three wilderness areas. Ambystoma macrodactylum was 44 times more likely to be found in lakes without fish than in lakes with fish. Rana cascadae and P. regilla were 3.7 and 3.0 times more likely, respectively, to be found in fishless than fish-containing waters. In contrast, the two unpalatable species were either uncorrelated (T. granulosa) or positively correlated (B. boreas) with fish presence. We found that the relative density of fish (catch per unit effort) was negatively correlated with the combined abundances of the three palatable amphibians, and also with both the length and the condition of the fish themselves. Our results are consistent with a compelling body of evidence that introduced fishes greatly alter the aquatic community structure of mountain lakes, ponds, and wet meadows.

Sixteen CXC chemokines have been identified in the human and mouse genomes, while considerably fewer teleost fish CXC chemokines have been reported. Here, we describe a novel clade of trout (Onchorynchus mykiss) CXC chemokines, designated Onmy CXCd, and we identify a novel gene, CXCd1, and a putative duplicate, CXCd2. The trout CXCd proteins contain 112 amino acids and the CXCd1 gene is comprised of four exons and three introns. Constitutive CXCd mRNA expression was detected in skin, gill, visceral fat, and posterior kidney tissues, while low transcript levels were present in the anterior kidney and spleen. Spleen CXCd transcript abundance increased 1 day after bath vaccination (fourfold) and subsided to basal levels by 7 days postvaccination. Challenge with viable Yersinia ruckeri induced expression of trout CXCd RNA up to ninefold in the spleen. The number of viable Y. ruckeri were significantly correlated with CXCd gene transcript abundance (P=0.0051, Spearman correlation 0.497, n=30 fish), and fish with the highest bacterial loads had the highest CXCd expression. In contrast, pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1- beta 2 mRNA levels were elevated in fish infected with low numbers of Y. ruckeri, while diminishing in heavily infected fish. CXCd mRNA expression was not increased in rainbow trout infected with infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus, suggesting that up-regulation may be pathogen-specific. Taken together, these results indicate that CXCd transcript elevation follows the pro-inflammatory cytokine response to Y. ruckeri and may be a relevant immunological marker of exposure.

ELISA plates were coated with either whole bacilli or sonicated antigens and tested for reactivity against serum obtained from JD-positive and JD-negative cattle or from calves experimentally inoculated with M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis, Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium, or Mycobacterium bovis. Because the initial results obtained from the WELISA and SELISA were similar, most of the subsequent experiments reported herein were performed using the SELISA method. To optimize the SELISA test, various concentrations (3.7 to 37%) of formaldehyde and intervals of sonication (2 to 300 s) were tested. With an increase in formaldehyde concentration and a decreased interval of sonication, there was a concomitant decrease in nonspecific binding by the SELISA. SELISAs prepared by treating M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis with 37% formaldehyde and then a 2-s burst of sonication produced the greatest difference (7x) between M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis-negative and M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis-positive serum samples. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity for JD by the SELISA were greater than 95%. The SELISA showed subspecies-specific detection of M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis infections in calves experimentally inoculated with M. avium subsp. paratuberculosis or other mycobacteria. Based on diagnostic sensitivity and specificity, the SELISA appears superior to the commercial ELISAs routinely used for the diagnosis of JD.

Decreasing the median grain size of the sand resulted in lower peak effluent concentrations and increased deposition of the Giardia and manure particles in the sand near the column inlet. The effluent concentration curves for the manure suspensions also exhibited asymmetric shapes that tended to include larger particle sizes as the manure suspension was continuously added. Simulations of the transport of Giardia and manure particles using a simple and flexible power law model for the solid-water mass exchange term provided a satisfactory description of the effluent and spatial distribution data. The cumulative size distribution (CSD) of manure particles in the suspension initially and after passage through the packed columns was used to identify the mechanisms that were controlling the deposition of manure particles and Giardia. The CSD data indicated that manure particles were completely removed at early times by mechanical filtration and/or straining when the ratio of the particle to the median grain diameter was greater than 0.003 to 0.017. However, the CSD changed with increasing time due to deposition-induced filling of straining sites. The Giardia transport was controlled by straining. For a given sand, higher effluent concentrations of Giardia were observed in the presence than in the absence of manure suspension. The relative increase of Giardia in the effluent concentrations varied from 75 to 172%. Hence, pathogen transport studies conducted in the absence of manure suspension may underestimate transport potential in manure- contaminated environments.

Exposure of rodents to fumonisin B sub(1) causes hepatotoxicity and results in alterations in the balance between cell proliferation and apoptosis in the liver. As the cytokine tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha ) and the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR alpha ) also modulate hepatocyte proliferation and apoptosis, we tested the hypothesis that fumonisin- induced hepatotoxicity in the liver is modulated by these factors. We examined the effects of dietary exposure to a fumonisin-containing culture material (CM) of the fungus F. verticillioides for 8 days or 5 weeks in the livers of mice lacking either TNF alpha or PPAR alpha . Compared to wild-type mice TNF alpha -null mice exhibited increased hepatocyte proliferation and apoptosis. In contrast, PPAR alpha - null and wild-type mice were found to exhibit similar patterns of hepatocyte apoptosis and proliferation when fed the CM diet. Overall, these findings provide evidence that TNF alpha , but not PPAR alpha , plays a role in modulating fumonisin-induced hepatotoxicity in mice.

Alternatively, therapeutic or remedial measures, such as antibiotic administration, are commonly employed to treat disease in infected fish. Vaccination as a therapeutic measure (therapeutic immunization), however, has not been adequately explored in sub-clinically infected fish. Therapeutic and prophylactic immunization with three Streptococcus iniae vaccines, formalin-killed whole S. iniae cells (FKC vaccine), concentrated S. iniae extracellular products (greater than 2 kDa) (ECP vaccine) and a combination of killed cells and extracellular products (FKC+ECP vaccine), were tested in hybrid striped bass, Morone chrysops x Morone saxatilis, previously naturally infected with S. iniae. Fish (mean weight 10.0 g) were injected intraperitoneally (IP) or intramuscularly (IM) with one of each of the vaccines, tryptic soy broth (TSB-control) or non-injected (non-injected control) to evaluate therapeutic effects (Trial 1). Survivors of the natural infection and ECP and FKC+ECP vaccine immunization and another lot of non-injected control fish were immersion challenged with 1.47 x 10 super(6) CFU of S. iniae mL super(-1) at 44 days post-immunization to evaluate vaccine efficacy (Trial 2). Hybrid striped bass (1.0 g) were also IM injected with S. iniae ECP vaccine at an aquaculture facility and immersion challenged with 1.47 x 10 super(6) CFU of S. iniae mL super(-1) 12 weeks post-immunization (Trial 3). The ECP and FKC+ECP vaccines, regardless of injection route, significantly (P<0.001) increased survival in asymptomatic, sub-clinically infected fish thereby providing therapeutic merit. Hybrid bass immunized IP or IM had mean per cent survival values ranging from 78 to 96 at 44 days post-immunization (Trial 1) and 69-97 post challenge (Trial 2). Survival of fish injected with TSB or immunized with FKC vaccine was significantly lowered and ranged from 12 to 13 by IP injection and 40 to 50 by IM injection and thus, the FKC vaccine had no therapeutic effect. The survival of hybrid striped bass IM immunized with S. iniae ECP vaccine in field Trial 3 was 91 and the RPS was 83. These results demonstrate that therapeutic immunization using S. iniae ECP and FKC+ECP vaccines can control a natural S. iniae infection. Furthermore, S. iniae ECP or FKC+ECP vaccines can also be used prophylacticly to protect hybrid striped bass against subsequent pathogen challenge.

Salmonella is among the most frequently reported cause of foodborne outbreaks of gastroenteritis in the United States. Research was undertaken to determine the effects of sanitizer and hot water treatments on microbial populations on cantaloupe surfaces and to determine whether prior decontamination of melons by sanitizer treatment affects vulnerability to recontamination by Salmonella. Cantaloupes were sanitized with 200ppm chlorine or 2.5% hydrogen peroxide solution for 2min, or hot water (96 super(o)C) for 2min and were held at 5 super(o)C for 24h. Hot water treatments reduced the microbial populations on cantaloupe surface by 4.9log reduction while H sub(2)O sub(2) or chlorine caused approximately 2.6log unit reduction on cantaloupe surfaces. When sanitized or hot water treated whole cantaloupes were re-inoculated with Salmonella. Higher populations of Salmonella were recovered from sanitized cantaloupes than from the untreated controls; recovery was greater from hot water treated cantaloupes than from cantaloupes treated with chlorine or hydrogen peroxide. The results of this study clearly show that sanitized cantaloupes are susceptible to recontamination if exposed to a human bacterial pathogen during subsequent handling.

Phagocytosis, destination, and clearance appeared similar for the two types of FMS used. In the older age classes, primary uptake was observed in epithelial cells of the torso, fins, nares and to a lesser extent the gills. Fluorescent microspheres were less frequently observed within mononuclear phagocytes in the epidermis, dermis and underlying connective tissue of the tissue mentioned above. Limited FMS trafficking was observed from 4- to 24-h post-immersion (hpi). Significantly higher numbers of FMS (blue and green)/mm super(3) of tissue were observed in the posterior kidney of the 4- and 8-wph age classes and in the anterior kidney and spleen of the 8-wph age class when compared to younger age classes (p<0.05). Significantly higher FMS (blue and green)/mm super(3) of tissue were observed in the posterior kidney of 4- and 8-wph fish when compared to all other organs (p<0.05). The present study indicates that FMS uptake increases with age in channel catfish. The younger age classes may possess an increased ability to exclude particulate antigen, or lack the specific mechanisms that needed to take up particulates in the form of FMS.

We measured the effect of livestock grazing on soil, emphasizing soil-solution chemistry, in a Sierra Nevada riparian meadow. Treatments were livestock exclusion (begun in 1989) and grazing to leave 1 000 kg.ha super(-1) of vegetation. Ceramic tension lysimeters were placed in the treatments (2 replicates) by landscape position (stream edge, midfloodplain, and forest edge), and by depth (approximately 0.1, 0.6, and 1.2 m below the soil surface). Lysimeter water was extracted twice monthly in April, May, and June of 1990 through 1993, and cations and anions were quantified. In addition, KCl-extractable NO sub(3) super(-) and NH sub(4) super(+); bicarbonate-extractable ortho-P; available Mn, Cu, Fe, and Zn; and root-length density (RLD) were quantified in soils by treatment, landscape position, and soil depth in July 1991 and September 1993. RLD was not affected by grazing. Significant (P less than or equal to 0.05) treatment effects were largely limited to the forest edge. The grazed treatment had greater lysimeter-extractable Na super(+), Ca super(+2), Mg super(+2), and NO sub(3) super(-); higher pH; and less K super(+) and NH sub(4) super(+) than the excluded treatment. Compared with corresponding excluded treatments, bicarbonate-extractable P was significantly greater on the grazed forest edge, and available Mn was significantly greater at the grazed stream-edge position in 1991. Extractable NO sub(3) super(-) was significantly higher in the 0-25 cm depth increment of the grazed treatment, and available Zn was significantly greater on the grazed midfloodplain position in 1993. Grazing did not result in more anoxic soil conditions than the excluded treatment. Grazing effects were most pronounced at the forest edge, possibly as a result of spatial transfer of nutrients via cow urine and feces. Management goals to sustain high-elevation meadows should emphasize maintenance of high RLD to sequester soil nutrients.Original Abstract: Virtualmente no existen datos del efecto del pastoreo animal en la disponibilidad de nutrientes del suelo en sistemas de praderas. Medimos el efecto del apacentamiento del ganadosobre el suelo, enfatizando en la quimica de la solucion del suelo en una pradera riberena de la Sierra Nevada. Los tratamientos fueron, exclusion al ganado (desde 1989) y apacentamiento hasta dejar 1 000 kg.ha super(-1) de vegetacion. En los tratamientos se colocaron lisimetros ceramicos de tension (dos repeticiones) en cada posicion del paisaje (orilla de cauce, cauce medio y limite del bosque) y por profundidad (aproximadamente 0.1, 0.6, y 1.2 m bajo la superficie). El agua del lisimetro se extrajo dos veces por mes, en abril, mayo, y junio de 1990 a 1993 y se cuantificaron los aniones y cationes. Ademas, se cuantifico el KCl-extractable; NO sub(3) super(-) y NH sub(4) super(+); ortho-P extractable con bicarbonato; Mn, Cu, Fe, y Zn disponibles; y la densidad de la longitud raiz (RLD), estas determinaciones se realizaron por tratamiento, posicion del paisaje y profundidad de suelo en julio 1991 y septiembre 1993. RLD no fue afectada por el apacentamiento. Los efectos significativos (P less than or equal to 0.05) de los tratamientos estuvieron muy limitados a la posicion del paisaje de la orilla del bosque. En el tratamiento de apacentamiento la extraccion de los lisimetros tuvo una mayor cantidad de Na super(+), Ca super(+2), Mg super(+2), y NO sub(3) super(-); pH mas alto; y menos K super(+) y NH sub(4) super(+) que el tratamiento de exclusion al ganado. En 1991, comparado con los tratamientos de exclusion correspondientes, el P extraido con bicarbonato fue significativamente mayor en el limite del boque apacentado, y el Mn disponible fue significativamente mayor en laposicion de la orilla del cauce apacentada. En 1993, a la profundidad de 0-25 cm, los NO sub(3) super(-) extractables fueron significativamente mayores en los tratamientos con apacentamiento, y el Zn disponible fue significativamente mayor en la posicion del cauce medio apacentado. En comparacion con los tratamientos de exclusion, el apacentamiento no produjo condiciones de suelo mas anoxicas. Los efectos del apacentamiento fueron mas pronunciados en la posicion de la orilla del bosque, posiblemente como resultado de una transferencia espacial de nutrientes via orina y heces de las vacas. Las metas de manejopara sostener las praderas de alta elevacion debe enfatizar el mantenimiento RLD para que puedan tomar los nutrientes del suelo.

This study was conducted to determine the economic value of grazing stockpiled forage kochia (Kochia prostrata [L.] Scrad.) and crested wheatgrass (Agropyron desertorum [Fisch. Ex Link] Schultes) during the fall and winter. Changes in cow body weight, body condition score, and ultrasound backfat were compared for late-gestation cows grazing forage kochia-crested wheatgrass pastures vs. those fed alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) hay in drylot. The study was conducted from early November to late January for 2 consecutive years near Promontory, Utah. Forage availability and nutritional quality were monitored throughout the experiment. Cows grazing stockpiled forages did not receive any protein or energy supplements. Forage kochia comprised approximately 70% of available forage, with November crude protein content of 116 and 76 g.kg super(-1) in years 1 and 2, respectively. Nutritional quality declined throughout the season, presumably mostly because of removal of higher-quality forage by preferential grazing as opposed to weathering. Averaged over years, cows grazing forage kochia-grass gained body weight (19 kg), increased in body condition (0.3 points), and maintained backfat thickness, finishing well within the range considered optimum for onset of calving and return to estrus. Pasture- vs. drylot-fed cows did not differ with regard to changes in body weight or body condition score. Both treatments increased backfat in year 1, when initial backfat was less than 0.5 cm, but both treatments resulted in loss of backfat in year 2, when initial backfat was greater than 1.0 cm. Grazing was more economical, costing $0.24.cow super(-1).d super(-1) less than feeding alfalfa hay in drylot. Forage kochia can be used on western rangelands to extend grazing into the fall and winter, thereby improving the profitability of beef production.Original Abstract: Extender el apacentamiento hasta el invierno, como estrategia opuesta a la alimentacion con forrajes cultivados, puede incrementar la sostenibilidad de las operaciones ganaderas del oeste de Estados Unidos. Este estudio se condujo para determinar el valor economico de apacentar forraje acumulado en pie de 'Kochia' (Kochia prostrata [L.] Scrad.) y 'crested wheatgrass' (Agropyron desertorum [Fisch. Ex Link] Schultes) durante el otono e invierno. Cambios en el peso corporal, la condicion corporal y grasa del lomo medida con ultrasonido fueron comparados entre vacas en estado final de gestacion apacentando praderas de 'Kochia'-'Crested wheatgrass' versus vacas alimentadas en corral con heno de 'Alfalfa' (Medicago sativa L.). El estudio se llevo a cabo cerca de Promontory, Utah de inicios de Noviembre a fines de Enero durante dos anos consecutivos. La disponibilidad de forraje y la calidad nutricional fueron monitoreadas a lo largo del experimento. Las vacas apacentando los forrajes acumulados en pie no recibieron ningun suplemento ni proteico ni energetico. El forraje de 'Kochia' aporto aproximadamente el 70% del forraje disponible, con un contenido de proteina cruda en Noviembre de 116 y 76 g.kg super(-1) en el ano 1 y 2, respectivamente. La calidad nutricional disminuyo a traves de la estacion de apacentamiento, presumiblemente debido en gran parte a la remocion de forraje de alta calidad por el apacentamiento preferencial como opuesto al intemperismo. Promediado a traves de los anos, las vacas apacentando 'Kochia-zacate' ganaron peso corporal (19 kg), incrementaron su condicion corporal (0.3 puntos) y mantuvieron el espesor de la grasa del lomo, terminando bien dentro del rango considerado como optimo para el inicio de la epoca de pariciones y regresar al estro. Las vacas apacentando las praderas versus las alimentadas en estabulacion no difirieron en los cambios de peso o condicion corporal. Ambos tratamientos incrementaron la grasa del lomo en el primer ano, cuando la grasa inicial fue menos de 0.5 cm, pero en el segundo ano, ambos tratamientos resultaron en perdida de grasa del lomo cuando la grasa inicial del lomo fue mayor a 1 cm. El apacentamiento fue mas economico, costando $0.24.vaca super(-1).dia super(-1) menos que la alimentacion con alfalfa en corral. El forraje de 'Kochia' puede ser utilizado en los pastizales del oeste para extender el apacentamiento hasta otono e invierno, por lo tanto mejorando la rentabilidad de la produccion de carne.

Brood parasitism by Brown-headed Cowbirds [lpar]Molothrus ater) has been implicated in the low productivity. I explored two hypotheses related to population dynamics of Warbling Vireos along an elevational gradient: [lpar]1) potential source populations exist at high elevations where cowbirds are rare, and [lpar]2) potential source populations occur in the center of the elevational distribution with less productive populations at upper and lower elevations. From 1985 through 2002 I studied the abundance and productivity of Warbling Vireos over an elevational gradient in the southern Sierra Nevada. Warbling Vireos were most abundant in mid elevation mixed conifer sites, less abundant in lower elevation ponderosa pine sites and upper elevation true fir sites, and rare in upper elevation lodgepole pine sites. Likewise, daily survival rates of nests were highest at mid elevations [lpar]1800 m) and gradually decreased at both higher and lower elevations. Compared to other populations studied in California, nest success in mixed conifer habitat was high [lpar]60%, n = 58). Although rates of brood parasitism were high enough to be of concern in low-elevation ponderosa pine forests, cowbird parasitism was not observed in mid- to upper-elevation forests. Warbling Vireos were most productive where they were most abundant. The hypothesis that potential source populations exist at upper elevations did not appear to hold at the upper bounds of the elevational distribution. The results of this study provide support for the hypothesis that potential source populations occur in the center of the elevational distribution, with less productive populations at both lower and higher elevations.Original Abstract: Abundancia Y Productividad De Vireo Gilvus En Un Gradiente Altitudinal En La Sierra NevadaEstudios recientes han demostrado que las poblaciones de Vireo gilvus de California estan declinando, y que estas tendencias se deben a un bajo exito reproductivo. El parasitismo de cria por parte de Molothrus ater se ha considerado como una causa de la baja productividad. En este estudio, explore dos hipotesis relacionadas con la dinamica poblacional de V. gilvus a lo largo de un gradiente altitudinal: [lpar]1) en las elevaciones altas, donde M. ater es raro, existen poblaciones que sirven potencialmente como fuentes; y [lpar]2) las poblaciones que sirven potencialmente como fuentes se encuentran en el centro de la distribucion altitudinal y las poblaciones menos productivas a elevaciones mayores y menores. Estudie la abundancia y productividad de V. gilvus en un gradiente altitudinal en la parte sur de la Sierra Nevada entre 1985 y 2002. Esta especie fue mas abundante a elevaciones medias en bosques mixtos de coniferas, menos abundante a elevaciones menores en bosques de Pinus ponderosa y a elevaciones mayores en sitios dominados por arboles del genero Abies, y rara en sitios a elevaciones altas dominadas por Pinus contorta. Igualmente, las tasas diarias de supervivencia de los nidos fueron maximas a elevaciones medias [lpar]1800 m) y disminuyeron gradualmente hacia elevaciones mayores y menores. En comparacion con otras poblaciones estudiadas en California, el exito reproductivo en ambientes mixtos de coniferas fue alto [lpar]60%, n = 58). Aunque las tasas de parasitismo de nidos por parte de M. ater fueron lo suficientemente altas como para ser motivo de preocupacion en los bosques de pino ponderosa a elevaciones bajas, no se observo parasitismo en bosques ubicados a elevaciones medias y altas. La productividad de V. gilvus fue maxima en las localidades donde la especie fue mas abundante. La hipotesis de que podrian existir potenciales poblaciones fuente a elevaciones mayores no parecio ser correcta en el limite superior de la distribucion altitudinal.

The latter of these effects may be especially important among early-successional species in disturbed ecosystems, but experimental tests are few. We removed two groups of early-successional species, an annual forb Gutierrezia dracunculoides (DC.) S. F. Blake and annual species (mostly grasses) that complete growth early in the growing season [early-season (ES) species], from a heavily-grazed grassland in central Texas, USA dominated by a C sub(4) perennial grass. We sought to determine effects of annuals on grassland functioning [productivity, water balance, soil and plant nitrogen (N)] and composition. Removals did not impact N retention in the soil/plant system during the two years of this study, but removing ES annuals increased the amount of water between 30 and 120 cm in the soil profile early in each growing season. Production and N accumulation by vegetation declined following the removal of ES annuals in approximate proportion to the contribution of annuals to aboveground biomass and N, consistent with the mass-ratio hypothesis. By the second year, production and N uptake by initially sub-dominant species increased to fully compensate for the loss of annuals. These results are consistent with the view that ecosystem functions are more strongly linked to species attributes than to diversity per se. Longer-term effects of annuals on grassland composition were evident in a dramatic increase in biomass of perennial forbs after annuals were removed. Because perennial forbs differ from the dominant grass in this grassland in traits that influence ecosystem functioning, ES annuals may affect grassland functioning more by regulating the composition of vegetation than by directly affecting process rates.

The virus, for which the name Angelonia flower break virus (AnFBV) is proposed, has isometric particles, approximately 30 nm in diameter. The experimental host range was limited to Nicoliana species, Schizanthus pinnatus, Myosotis sylvatica, Phlox drummondii, and Digitalis purpurea. Virions were isolated from systemically infected N. benthamiana leaves, and directly from naturally infected Angelonia leaves, using typical carmovirus protocols. Koch's postulates were completed by mechanical inoculation of uninfected Angelonia seedlings with purified virions. Isometric particles were observed in leaf dips and virion preparations from both Angelonia and N. benthamiana, and in thin sections of Angelonia flower tissue by electron microscopy. In sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of dissociated purified virus preparations, a major protein component with a molecular mass of 38 kDa was observed. Virion preparations were used to produce virusspecific polyclonal antisera in both Israel and the United States. The antisera did not react with Pelargonium flower break virus (PFBV), Carnation mottle virus (CarMV), or Saguaro cactus virus (SgCV) by either enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or immunoblotting. In reciprocal tests, antisera against PFBV, CarMV, and SgCV reacted only with the homologous viruses. The complete nucleotide sequence of a Florida isolate of AnFBV and the coat protein (CP) gene sequences of Israeli and Maryland isolates were determined. The genomic RNA is 3,964 nucleotides and contains four open reading frames arranged in a manner typical of carmoviruses. The AnFBV CP is most closely related to PFBV, where-as the AnFBV replicase is most closely related to PFBV, CarMV, and SgCV. Particle morphology, serological properties, genome organization, and phylogenetic analysis are all consistent with assignment of AnFBV to the genus Carmovirus.

Methods and Results:A set of four primers, two outer and two inner, were designed specifically to recognize 16S ribosomal RNA gene of this pathogen. Bacterial genomic DNA templates were prepared by hot lysis in a lysis buffer. Amplification of the specific gene segments was carried out at 65 degree C for 1 h. The amplified gene products were analysed by agarose gel electrophoresis and detected by staining gels with ethidium bromide. A PCR assay was also included in this study. Our results demonstrate that the ladder-like pattern of bands from 204 bp specific to the Fl. columnare 16S ribosomal RNA gene was amplified. The detection limit of the LAMP assay was comparable to that of PCR in prepared genomic DNA reactions. In addition, this optimized LAMP assay was able to detect the Fl. columnare 16S ribosomal RNA gene in experimentally infected channel catfish. Conclusions:The LAMP assay for Fl. columnare detection in channel catfish was established. Significance and Impact of the Study:Because LAMP assay is a rapid, sensitive, specific, simple and cost-effective assay for Fl. columnare detection in channel catfish, it is useful for rapid diagnosis of Fl. columnare in fish hatcheries and the field.

It is also a problematic invasive weed in the western United States and a target of biological control efforts. In May 2005, smutted capitula of Italian thistle were found in an abandoned field in Halkiades, Greece. A total of 38 smutted plants, representing approximately 20% of those plants present, were found in a portion of the field that was lightly infested with Italian thistle. In most cases, capitula of all diseased flowers were smutted. In one or two cases, capitula on some branches of the plants were smutted, whereas capitula on other branches were healthy. Diseased capitula were noticeably more globose than healthy ovoid capitula, and diseased capitula did not open completely. When diseased capitula were split open, the ovaries in all florets within the capitula were filled with powdery masses of smut teliospores. Diseased capitula were collected, air dried, and sent to the quarantine facility of the Foreign Disease-Weed Science Research Unit (FDWSRU), USDA/ARS, Fort Detrick, MD. Teliospores within the capitula were extracted and observed microscopically. Teliospores of isolate DB05-014 were relatively uniform in shape and size, globose, 12.0 to 17.3 x 12.3 to 18.0 mu m (mean 14.5 x 15.1 mu m), violet tinted pale to medium yellowish-brown; wall reticulate appearing as coarse, radiate wings on the spore margin, 5 to 7 polyangular meshes per spore diameter, muri, 0.7 to 2.0 mu m high in optical median view appearing as gradually narrowing blunt spines, 0.5 to 1 mu m wide at their basis; in scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the meshes were subpolygonal, wall and interspaces were finely verruculose. Teliospores were more globose and slightly smaller than the description of Microbotryum cardui (A. A. Fischer Waldh.) Vanky, but the mean sizes were within the described range. When compared with teliospores of M. cardui on C. acanthoides, the numbers of polyangular meshes per spore diameter were within the range of the description using SEM, but the muri were about one-half of the height of those described. Nucleotide sequences for the internal transcribed spacers (ITS 1 and 2) and 5.8S ribosomal region (GenBank Accession No. AY280460) were aligned with sequences of other smut fungi using the BLAST algorithm of the National Center for Biotechnology Information. The closest alignment of DB05-014 was with M. scorzonerae (590 of 627 bp identities or 94% with 2% gaps). No sequences of M. cardui were available for comparison, but only M. cardui has been reported on Carduus spp.. Another smut reported on a Carduus sp. is Thecaphora trailii. DB05-014 is a likely variant of M. cardui from a previously unknown host. Italian thistle is an annual plant that reproduces solely by seeds (achenes). Because of the lack of seed production on smutted plants and the systemic nature of the disease, this fungus has great potential as a biological control agent for Italian thistle in the United States. A voucher specimen has been deposited with the U.S. National Fungus Collections (BPI 871812). To our knowledge this is the first report of a Microbotryum sp. parasitizing C. pycnocephalus.

A uniform source of CMV inoculum (freeze-dried infected cowpea tissue) was diluted to provide an infection rate in GC-86L-98 similar to that observed under field conditions. Plants of test lines were mechanically inoculated with this standard inoculum rate and assessed under greenhouse conditions. Lines considered equivalent in infection percentage with GC-86L-98 were then evaluated in field tests. Test line plants were exposed to virus from susceptible cultivar Coronet when plants were at the first or second trifoliolate leaf stage, and then leaf samples were assayed by direct antigen coating-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Lines with infection percentages similar to or lower than the resistant control were considered resistant. A new line (PI 441917) with CMV resistance and several lines with Blackeye cowpea mosaic virus resistance were found. Newly discovered CMV-resistant lines will help to control the serious cowpea stunt disease caused by synergism of the two viruses.

Shank injection of fumigants under a virtually impermeable film (VIF) using a novel application apparatus dramatically improved their retention in the soil. Survival of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici in soil declined significantly when fumigation or solarization was combined with VIF compared with either soil disinfestation treatment applied under low-density polyethylene. When compared with an untreated control, significant reductions in yellow nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus), purple nutsedge (C. rotundus), and root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) were achieved with a reduced dosage of fumigant when applications were made 7 days after planting beds were covered with VIF. A 7-day delay in fumigant application in beds covered by low-density polyethylene significantly increased marketable yield of pepper when compared with an untreated control. The results demonstrate that chemical and nonchemical soil disinfestation methods can be combined with novel application technology and procedures to improve their spectrum of pest control and reduce fumigant application rates.

Recent advances in sugar beet genetics have led to the development of high-yielding cultivars, but these cultivars have little resistance to curly top disease. These cultivars are highly effective when disease management practices or environmental factors minimize curly top incidence, but can result in significant losses in years with early infection or abundant curly top. A greenhouse assay has been developed to rapidly test cultivars for a broad array of factors affecting performance in the presence of curly top. Previous studies have shown that sugar beet plants were more susceptible and losses more severe when seedlings were infected by BCTV, but less severe when plants were larger at the time of infection. To evaluate more precisely the relationship between age at infection, disease severity, virus accumulation, and yield loss in modern cultivars that were not bred for curly top resistance, individual sugar beet plants varying in degree of resistance and susceptibility to curly top were inoculated by viruliferous beet leafhoppers (Circulifer tenellus) when plants had two, four, or six true leaves, and maintained in a greenhouse for 6 weeks. When plants were inoculated at the two-leaf stage, all cultivars became severely stunted, with high disease ratings and similar rates of symptom development, regardless of resistance or susceptibility of the cultivar. Plants inoculated at four- and six-leaf stages exhibited increasing separation between resistant and susceptible phenotypes, with highly resistant cultivars performing well with low disease ratings and increased plant weights relative to susceptible cultivars. High-yielding cultivars performed only slightly better than the susceptible control cultivar. Results from greenhouse trials matched those from field trials conducted under heavy curly top pressure. Importantly, low virus concentration was directly correlated with lower disease ratings and higher plant weight, while elevated virus concentrations corresponded to higher disease ratings and lower weights. This demonstrates that a rapid greenhouse assay involving multiple traits can provide a rapid and effective means of selecting cultivars with improved curly top control, and could lead to more rapid incorporation of resistance into high-yielding sugar beet.

Isolations were made from the vascular and cortical tissue. Hyphal tip isolates of Fusarium were obtained from beets, including eight isolates of Fusarium graminearum. F. graminearum was isolated from beets from three fields in Minnesota and one field in northern Wyoming. F. graminearum isolates were tested for pathogenicity by dipping roots of 5-week-old sugar beet plants (FC716) in a suspension of 10 super(4) spores per ml for 8 min, 10 plants per isolate. Spore suspensions were shaken periodically to aid mixing. A known moderately virulent isolate of F. oxysporum f. sp. betae (Fob13), the causal agent of Fusarium yellows of sugar beet, was used as a positive control. For a negative control, plants were dipped in sterile water. Dipped plants were planted in Cone-tainers (3.8 cm diameter x 21 cm; Stuewe and Sons, Inc., Corvallis, OR) containing pasteurized potting mix and placed in a greenhouse at 24 to 27 degree C. Plants were fertilized with 15-30-15 fertilizer biweekly. After 2 weeks, plants were rated weekly for 5 weeks using a 0 to 4 scale in which 0 = no disease and 4 = complete plant death. After the final rating, plants were removed from soil and the tap root was examined for symptoms. Root segments were surface disinfested with 0.5% sodium hypochlorite and plated on potato dextrose agar to confirm presence of the pathogen. The experiment was done twice. Three of the eight isolates of F. graminearum caused mild to moderate foliar symptoms (rating 2 to 3), including interveinal yellowing, wilting, and stunting of inoculated plants, and mild vascular discoloration was observed in some root sections. Pathogenic isolates were originally from different beets. Foliar symptoms were similar to those caused by Fob13, but the F. oxysporum f. sp. betae caused more vascular discoloration than did the F. graminearum isolates. No interveinal yellowing or wilting was observed on foliage of the control plants, and no vascular discoloration was observed in a cross section of the root. Cultures of F. graminearum or F. oxysporum recovered from inoculated plants were morphologically similar to isolates used for the inoculations. No Fusarium was isolated from the roots of plants soaked in sterile water. An interesting note is that no isolates of F. graminearum were recovered among more than 100 Fusarium isolates collected from sugar beet roots from Colorado over a 4-year period. F. graminearum was recovered in one sample from Wyoming in 2004. However, in the 2004 samples from Minnesota, this species was isolated at the same frequency as F. oxysporum. While F. graminearum has been isolated from beets in the Red River Valley, it has not previously been reported to cause symptoms on growing sugar beet.

Quantification of the disease can be done by visual or digital assessments of diseased leaf area, lesion number, lesion size, and latent period. Laborious measurements of sporulation can also be made. As an alternative to these methods, a new quantitative assay was developed. The method employs simple inoculum application, quantitative sampling from inoculated areas, a closed tube DNA extraction method restricting loss of tissue, and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using a pathogen-specific TaqMan primers/probe set. Image analyses of genotypes with varying levels of crown rust resistance were compared to fungal DNA (FDNA) estimations by the new assay. The moderately resistant genotype IA98822-2 was distinguished from susceptible genotypes at the seedling stage, and the moderately resistant genotype O x T 107 was distinguished from the resistant cultivar TAM-O-301 at seedling and adult plant stages using FDNA. These separations were not evident with digital image analysis. The new assay also detected fungal development earlier and more rapidly in genotypes with lower levels of resistance. The assay can consistently estimate disease and should be useful for studying many aspects of the crown rust host-pathogen interaction where precise assessment of pathogen development is needed.

We studied the factors affecting P transfer and transport in irrigated furrows in six freshly tilled fallow fields, 110 to 180 m long with 0.007 to 0.012 m m super(-1) slopes without the interference of raindrops or sheet flow that occur during natural or simulated rain. The soil on all fields was Portneuf silt loam (coarse-silty, mixed, superactive, mesic Durinodic Xeric Haplocalcids). Flow rate, sediment concentration, and P concentrations were monitored at four, equally spaced locations in each furrow. Flow rate decreased with distance down the furrow as water infiltrated. Sediment concentration varied with distance and time with no set pattern. Total P concentrations related directly to sediment concentrations (r super(2) = 0.75) because typically >90% of the transported P was particulate P, emphasizing the need to control erosion to reduce P loss. Dissolved reactive phosphorus (DRP) concentrations decreased with time at a specific furrow site but increased with distance down the furrow as contact time with soil and suspended sediment increased. The DRP concentration correlated better with sediment concentration than extractable furrow soil P concentration. However, suspended sediment concentration tended to not affect DRP concentration later in the irrigation (>2 h). These results indicate that the effects of soil P can be overshadowed by differences in flow hydraulics, suspended sediment loads, and non-equilibrium conditions.

The causal pathogen is a strain of Xylella fastidiosa transmitted by several sharp-shooter species. The glassy-winged sharpshooter (GWSS), Homalodisca coagulata, has become an important new pest of citrus and grapevines in California, where it transmits X. fastidiosa strains to several crops including grapes, oleander, and almonds. Transmission studies over a 3-year period at the USDA BSL3-P containment facility at Fort Detrick, MD, utilizing California field-collected GWSS, a Brazilian strain of CVC, and Madam Vinous sweet orange seedlings, have shown a consistent although low level of transmission of CVC. Test plants were observed for CVC symptoms, analyzed by polymerase chain reaction using species-specific primers for X. fastidiosa, membrane entrapment immunofluorescence, and scanning electron microscopy. X. fastidiosa was not detected in field-collected GWSS but was detected in GWSS following feeding on CVC-infected source plants. Transmission of the CVC strain of X. fastidiosa by GWSS increases the risk of establishment of CVC in the United States if it were introduced.

We hypothesized that variation in fire intensity resulting from local differences in fuel loads produces heterogeneity in pine savanna ground cover by altering shrub abundance. To test this hypothesis, we experimentally manipulated prefire fuel loads to mimic naturally occurring fuel-load `heterogeneity associated with branch falls, needle fall near large pines, and animal disturbances in a frequently burned longleaf pine (Pinns palustris) savanna in Louisiana, USA. We applied one of four fuel treatments (unaltered control, fine-fuel removal, fine-fuel addition, wood addition) to each of 540 (1-m super(2)) quadrats prior to growing-season prescribed fires in each of two years (1999 and 2001). In both years fuel addition increased (and fuel removal decreased) fuel consumption and maximum fire temperatures relative to unaltered controls. Fuel addition, particularly wood, increased damage to shrubs, increased shrub mortality, and decreased resprout density relative to controls. We propose that local variation in fire intensity may contribute to maintenance of high species diversity in pine savannas by reducing shrub abundance and creating openings in an otherwise continuous ground cover.

Additional soil moisture and temperature validation data were collected daily from 49 field sites. These sites represented a diversity of land covers including forest, cotton, peanut, and pasture. Precipitation that occurred prior to June 22nd and from June 29th through July 2nd produced drying conditions from June 23rd to June 28th and gradual wetting from June 29th through July 2nd. Soil moisture in the top 0-1 cm of the soil was found to be more responsive to precipitation and to have greater variability than soil moisture at the 0-3 or 3-6 cm layers. Within different land covers, soil moisture followed the same trends, but varied with land use. Pasture sites were consistently the wettest while row-crop sites were normally the driest. Good agreement was observed between soil moisture measurements collected with the in situ network and the 49 SMEX sites. For the study period, soil moisture across the entire 50 km by 75 km region and five of the six 25 km by 25 km EASE-Grids demonstrated time stable characteristics. Time stability analysis and statistical tests demonstrated the in situ stations had a small dry bias as compared to the SMEX03 GA measurements. These results indicate that the in situ network will be a good resource for long-term calibration of remotely sensed soil moisture and provide a new and unique source for future satellite product validation.

Accurate and efficient estimation of large- scale surface soil moisture is a primary component of soil moisture satellite validation programs. However, monitoring the soil surface at large grid scales is difficult. As part of the aqua satellite advanced microwave scanning radiometer (AMSR) Validation Program, a soil moisture sensor network was installed in the little Washita river watershed in Oklahoma, USA in 2002. Along with data from the soil moisture experiment 2003 (SMEX03), this network will provide a valuable dataset for satellite soil moisture product validation. Analysis shows that most of the network sensors are temporally stable at multiple scales and four sites are identified as representative with negligible bias and small standard deviation to the watershed mean. As part of this analysis, the protocols established for large-scale soil moisture sampling campaigns such as in the soil moisture experiments (SMEX) are validated. This analysis showed that basing grid scale estimates on six sampling points is reasonable and accurate. Temporal stability is shown to be a valuable tool for soil moisture network analysis and can provide an efficient means to large-scale satellite validation.

Background color from these reagents improved contrast between clear plaques and turbid host lawns in trypticase soy agar (TSA) plates. Enhancement by FACST is based on reaction with hydrogen sulfide gas (H sub(2)S) produced by some strains of bacteria and was tested here using H sub(2)S+ and H sub(2)S- strains of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica with a bacteriophage (Podoviridae) isolated from swine lagoon effluent. Only the H sub(2)S+ strain produced dark brown-black color in FACST-amended agar. Both strains showed bright pinkish-red color in TZR-amended agar. Color intensity for both reagents decreased with decreasing concentrations of the reagents. Contrast in FACST-amended plates appeared greater than that with TZR, but diminished after 12 h, while contrast in TZR-amended plates remained constant. At the concentrations tested, neither reagent affected plaque counts in the H2S+ strain. The FACST should be useful in bacteriophage plaque assays with H sub(2)S+ strains of Salmonella and other H sub(2)S+ bacteria.

AN - 67883133; 16423453 AB - Strong atmospheric winds may cause wind erosion and dust emissions on bare, dry, erodible fields. Since these dust emissions may exceed particulate matter limits established by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, information on dust generation and transport mechanics is needed to determine the particulate hazard of dust sources. Measurements of climatic variables and airborne sediment mass and concentration were made during three strong wind events on a bare, fine sandy loam field in west Texas. This study clearly shows that dust flux estimates were very sensitive to dust concentration measurement height. PM10 flux values estimated between heights of 2 and 5m were 2-5 times those estimated between heights of 5 and 10 m. Tower placement in relation to the upwind unerodible boundary produced significant differences in dust flux that varied with storm intensity. During the most intense storm event, the PM10 flux between heights of 2 and 5m measured at the tower 200 m from the unerodible boundary was almost 2.5 times as that measured at the tower 100 m from the unerodible boundary. Vertical PM10 dust flux was closely related with horizontal sediment flux only when the winds came from the same direction during the entire duration of horizontal sediment flux measurements.

AN - 67824888; 16430983 AB - Aspergillus flavus is the main etiological agent for aflatoxin contamination of crops. Its close relative, A. oryzae, does not produce aflatoxins and has been widely used to produce fermented foods. We compared the phylogeny of A. oryzae isolates and L- and S-type sclerotial isolates of A. flavus using single nucleotide polymorphisms in the omtA gene in the aflatoxin biosynthesis gene cluster and deletions in and distal to the norB-cypA intergenic region as phylogenetic signals. Aflatoxin-producing ability and sclerotial size also were weighted in the analysis. Like A. flavus, the A. oryzae isolates form a polyphyletic assemblage. A. oryzae isolates in one clade strikingly resemble an A. flavus subgroup of atoxigenic L-type isolates. All toxigenic S-type isolates closely resemble another subgroup of atoxigenic L-type isolates. Because atoxigenic S-type isolates are extremely rare, we hypothesize that loss of aflatoxin production in S-type isolates may occur concomitantly with a change to L-type sclerotia. All toxigenic L-type isolates, unlike A. oryzae, have a 1.0 kb deletion in the norB-cypA region. Although A. oryzae isolates, like S-type, have a 1.5 kb deletion in the norB-cypA region, none were cladally related to S-type A. flavus isolates. Our results show that A. flavus populations are genetically diverse. A. oryzae isolates may descend from certain atoxigenic L-type A. flavus isolates.

AN - 67820663; 16481058 AB - A precise, reproducible microassay was developed to measure thermal inactivation of high pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) virus in chicken meat. Small pieces of breast or thigh meat (0.05 g) from chickens infected with A/chicken/Pennsylvania/1370/1983 (H5N2) (PA/83) or A/chicken/Korea/ES/2003 (H5N1) (Korea/03) HPAI viruses were tested for inactivation in the heating block of a thermocycler. Korea/03 infected thigh and breast meat had higher virus concentrations (10(6.8) and 10(5.6) mean embryo infectious doses [EID(50)]/g, respectively) compared to PA/83 infected thigh and breast meat (10(2.8) and 10(2.3) EID(50)/g, respectively). The samples were ran through a ramp-up cycle from 25 to 70 degrees C, and meat samples were removed and examined for virus infectivity at 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 degrees C, and after treatment for 1, 5, 10, 30 and 60 s at 70 degrees C. The reduction in virus infectivity titers was dependent on virus concentration and no HPAI virus was isolated after 1 s of treatment at 70 degrees C.

6867448 AB - Many farmers in the steeply sloped Palouse region of eastern Washington and northern Idaho practice no-till (NT) farming. Soil quality and water intake parameters were assessed in standing wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) stubble along summit, side, and toe-slope positions in a 2-yr study at three paired-farm sites using traditional tillage (TT) vs. NT management. Paired sites had similar south-facing aspect, slopes ranged from 29 to 45%, and NT fields had not been tilled from 2 to 20 yr. Soil aggregates >1000 mu m were 5.4 to 9.8% higher in NT compared with TT. Soil organic carbon (SOC) in NT was 30% greater than in TT at the toe-slope position. Dehydrogenase enzyme activity (DEA) was higher in TT, mainly due to the exposed CaCO sub(3) layer at the side-slope position and higher pH of TT. Phospholipid fatty acid methyl ester (PLFA) analysis showed that fungal biomarkers were higher and Gram positive and Gram negative biomarkers were lower in NT compared with TT. There were no differences in over-winter soil water storage or ponded water infiltration rate in undisturbed standing wheat stubble between TT and NT, indicating soils that produce high wheat grain yield of 6 Mg ha super(-1) or more have similar water intake regardless of tillage history as long as the stubble is left standing over winter. Results show long-term cumulative benefits of NT vs. TT on soil quality, but no differences in soil water intake when stubble is left standing over winter, possibly due to the high quantity of wheat root channels produced in both systems.

This study determined the effects of conventional tillage (CT) and no tillage (NT) on N dynamics and grass seed crop growth and seed yield on moderately well- drained (MWD) and a well-drained (WD) soils either in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) or fine fescue (F. rubra L.) production. Temporal changes in soil N, N mineralization and immobilization, crop N uptake and biomass accumulation, and microbial biomass C (MBC) were determined. Net N mineralization was determined using the in situ buried bag method and MBC by fumigation extraction. Tillage treatment had no effect on fine fescue and tall fescue seed yield during the 3 yr of production. Soil MBC, under NT, was 20 to 30% higher (P = 0.05), regardless of soil drainage class or time of year, compared to the CT soil. Soils at the WD site had twice the amount of MBC compared to MWD. Crop N uptake was lowest in the fall and highest when soil N was elevated in the spring. Tillage enhanced annual total net N mineralization at the better-drained site (WD) resulting in more potential soil NO sub(3) to be leached the following winter high precipitation months when the crop's demand for N is low. This was especially true for fallow years when an actively growing crop was lacking. Net N mineralization was little affected by tillage in the more poorly drained soil.

Whereas relationships between dairy diets, milk production, manure N excretion, and urine N losses as ammonia have been documented, very little information exists on how diets impact fecal carbon (C), N content, and partitioning, and how these factors impact fecal N mineralization and plant N uptake after application to soil. Feces from 24 to 63 dairy cows (Bos taurus) fed 14 typical diets were incubated aerobically in a sandy loam and two silt loam soils, and soil inorganic N (IN) was determined periodically during a 365-d period. Feces from 12 of the 14 diets were applied to the same soils and oat (Avena sativa L.), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench), and sorghum ratoon dry matter (DM) and N uptake were determined over a 155-d period. Feces from cows fed alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) silage (AS)- based diets generally lead to higher soil IN levels than soils amended with feces from corn (Zea mays L.) silage (CS)-based diets, especially in soils amended with feces from CS-low crude protein (LCP) diets; feces from AS-based diets increased plant DM and N uptake; after application to a silt loam, feces from high crude protein (HCP) diets resulted in greater soil IN levels than feces from LCP diets; and feces from LCP diets did not impact soil IN but decreased plant DM and N uptake. Carbon to N (C/N) ratios of applied feces were found to be significant predictors of plant DM and N uptake. There appears to be a range of dietary options that satisfy nutritional requirements of high- producing dairy cows and produce feces having differential effects on soil N mineralization and plant N uptake after application to soil.

Modified or unmodified Hedley sequential fractionation procedures have been widely used for characterizing P forms in soil, animal manure, and biosolids. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) fractions in these procedures have often been assumed to contain no organic P. As a result, many researchers for the last two decades have measured concentrations of inorganic P in HCl fractions without measuring organic P. In this study, we measured colorimetrically concentrations of inorganic P in untreated (control) HCl fractions after 3-phytase incubation or oxidative autoclaving of these fractions. Phosphorus concentrations in some samples were also determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy. The increases in measured P concentrations, compared with the controls, were attributed to organic P in these fractions. Data for 15 soil and eight manure samples indicated that, although HCl fractions of some samples contained negligible amounts of organic P, others contained significant amounts of organic P. The concentrations of organic P were greater than inorganic P in one soil sample and two manure samples. We recommend that organic P in HCl fractions be measured experimentally to determine whether the HCl fraction contains inorganic and organic P. Identification of possible organic P species contained in HCl fractions of the Hedley sequential fractionation schemes would provide more accurate and comprehensive knowledge of the fates and interchanges of P forms in soil and animal manure under various environmental conditions.

To illustrate potential applications of chemical extractions to nutrient issues, this report reviews studies in which the extraction of SOM fractions was based on their binding to polyvalent soil cations. Radiocarbon ages and cycling rates of super(13)C and super(15)N indicated that the unbound mobile humic acid (MHA) fraction cycled faster than did the cationic-bound calcium humate (CaHA) fraction. Analyses for C, N, H, and O concentrations and for biochemical groups including carboxyl, phenol, amino, diester P, and free radicals demonstrated that the MHA consisted of more labile and less humified materials than did the CaHA. Quantities and chemical natures of both fractions responded to recent crop management, especially those of the MHA. Three case studies are described in which characterization of the MHA and CaHA contributed toward a process-level understanding of nutrient cycling: (i) a phenol accumulation in the MHA fraction was linked to an inhibition of N mineralization in tropical lowland soils under continuous rice (Oryza sativa L.) cropping, (ii) addition of the MHA to California cotton (Gossypium hirstum L.) soils in laboratory studies resulted in increased K availability and plant K uptake, reproducing the benefit of animal manure application in field conditions, and (iii) effects of straw management and winter flooding on N cycling in California rice soils were elucidated by studying a fraction comparable to the MHA fraction. This fractionation is well suited for studying N dynamics, especially in soils enriched in phenolic compounds, and it enabled the linkage of SOM function with chemical nature. It worked well in C-rich flooded soils but needs further evaluation in upland aerobic soils. Further insight into chemical structure and function relations might be achieved by its integration with physical and biological extractions.

Our goal was to determine the extent of N losses and effectiveness of a riparian area and an adjacent perennial ryegrass seed field to retain N. The fate of fertilizer super(15)NH sub(4) and super(15)NO sub(3) was determined with a super(15)N tracer experiment. During the second year of the study, super(15)N recovery in the plant and soil (0-30 cm) from the cropping system was 51% for super(15)NH sub(4) and 43% for super(15)NO sub(3) whereas recovery in the riparian area was only 20% of super(15)NH sub(4) and 31% of super(15)NO sub(3). Greater cropping system retention of super(15)N resulted from both greater uptake by the crop and greater retention of super(15)N in the soil. Low recovery of super(15)N in the riparian area was possibly the result of two significant spring flood events saturating the surface soil of the riparian area but not the cropping system. The prolonged seasonal saturated conditions significantly reduced riparian plant biomass production and N uptake and increased the potential of N loss through overland flow and denitrification. Results indicate that the cropping system had larger available N pools and a larger potential to retain fertilizer N than the riparian zone. However, both areas were prone to substantial loss of applied N.

8705360 AB - Previous analyses of diapause in insects have most often focused on the timing of the switch from non-diapausing to diapausing offspring in bivoltine populations and have assumed that diapause is irreversible or that the insect cannot survive winter if not in diapause. Many insects exhibit more flexibility in their life cycles, such as the age at which diapause begins, and facultative diapause, that may influence the evolution of different diapause strategies in different environments. The grasshopper Melanoplus sanguinipes F. (Orthoptera: Acrididae), has a very wide geographic range over which diapause characteristics vary greatly. Embryonic diapause in this species may be under maternal control, may be obligate or facultative (i.e., may be averted by cold temperature treatment of pre-diapause embryos), and embryos may enter diapause at different ages. Diapause traits were examined in two populations of M. sanguinipes from very different environments. In the population from a temperate climate (Idaho, USA), diapause was facultative, i.e., pre-diapause embryos averted diapause when held at 5 degree C for 90 days at all ages tested (7 days and older). The Idaho embryos entered diapause in late stage of development if held at 22 degree C for 30 days or more. In populations from subarctic Alaska, USA, embryos also entered diapause in a late stage of development, but diapause was obligate and could not be averted by chilling in the pre-diapause stages. Simulated evolution of these traits over a wide range of season-lengths showed that late stage diapause is an essential trait in very short season environments, resulting in early hatching, and a semivoltine life-cycle. Facultative diapause enabled bivoltinism to be a viable strategy in shorter seasons than when diapause was obligate. At transitions from semivoltine to univoltine, and from univoltine to bivoltine life cycles, populations with obligate diapause adopted a strategy of no diapause (via maternal effects) to enable univoltine life cycles.

15306129 AB - The functional response by the egg parasitoid, Gonatocerus ashmeadi, and superparasitism of Homalodisca coagulata eggs were found to be related to host age and density when studied under laboratory conditions. Several aspects relating to parasitism of 1-, 3-, 5-, 7-, 9-day-old H. coagulata eggs were measured under varied densities ranging from 1:1 to 1:60 parasitoid to host ratios. The functional response for the parasitoid to host eggs of all age groups closely fit the Type II model that describes responses to changing densities. The instantaneous attack rate and handling time of the parasitoid were similar for H. coagulata eggs of various ages. The number of host eggs parasitized varies significantly with host density and age, but not when analyzed by a host age x density interaction. However, host age and density, as well as the host age x density interaction, contribute significantly to the differences found in length of the development time of G. ashmeadi within host eggs. This parasitoid showed a significantly greater tendency toward superparasitism at parasitoid-to-host ratios [less-than-or-equals, slant]10:100. The maximum number of parasitoid eggs found in a single host egg was 18. The frequencies of superparasitism for G. ashmeadi display a random distribution over all observed host densities. Our results also suggest G. ashmeadi eliminates the supernumerary parasitoids through physiological suppression.

Both organisms exploit expanding leaves so we sought to investigate the interactions among these natural enemies and their shared host plant melaleuca. Olfactory-response studies showed that the leaves not infected with rust attracted more female weevils. Similarly, adults and late instars consumed higher proportions of rust-free versus rust-diseased leaf tissues in dual-choice tests, while early instars showed no preference. Female weevils preferentially oviposited on rust-free leaves but similar proportions of eggs hatched on either leaf type. No-choice feeding trials on excised leaves showed increased rust-pustule coverage to cause concomitant decreases in larval survivorship. Most larval mortality occurred as 1st and 2nd instars when fed with leaf tissues having [greater-or-equal, slanted]50% rust-pustule coverage. Similar trials with whole plants caused lower larval survival on rust-diseased versus rust-free leaves, with greater prepupal weights realized on rust-free leaves. Herbivory on intact plants by O. vitiosa reduced rust-susceptible tissues and rust-pustule densities under both controlled and ambient environmental conditions. These data suggest that P. psidii and O. vitiosa influence each other's life cycle and possibly antagonize each other's effects as biological control agents of M. quinquenervia because both agents compete for newly expanding foliar tissues for colonization, reproduction, and survival during their early stages of development.

It has been a very effective biological control agent at some locations but not at others. Overall genetic diversity is one parameter that could have an effect on Aphthona establishment at specific locations. We have examined the genetic diversity of mitochondrial DNA in populations of A. nigriscutis from several North American collection sites. The results indicate that the insects are divided into two mtDNA clades. About 78% of the individuals comprise a clade (A) that has little or no mtDNA diversity. The remaining insects in the other clade (B) display extensive diversity with 15 haplotypes observed. The two subpopulations coexist at most locations. The bacterial endosymbiont Wolbachia has been discovered in some individuals. About 86% of the individuals from mtDNA clade A tested positive for Wolbachia. Portions of the Wolbachia ftsZ and wspA genes were sequenced and the sequences have been shown to fall within the Wolbachia Supergroup A. None of the insects from clade B appear to be infected. The association of Wolbachia with one, but not both, mtDNA clades of A. nigriscutis may play a role in limiting genetic diversity within beetle populations.

Management of GWSS will include biological control using resident and imported natural enemies. Currently, very little information is available on the role of generalist predators in suppression of GWSS eggs, nymphs or adults. We have developed a sharpshooter egg-specific monoclonal antibody (MAb) for use as a diagnostic tool for predator gut content analysis. The MAb was tested by an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for specificity to the different life stages of GWSS, smoke-tree sharpshooter (STSS), Homalodisca liturata Ball (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), and various life stages of 27 other arthropod species. We found that the MAb only reacted to the egg stage of both sharpshooters and, to a lesser extent, to the adult stage of gravid GWSS and STSS females. Moreover, the ELISA was more responsive to younger GWSS eggs than older ones. Laboratory trials were conducted to determine how long GWSS egg antigen remained detectable in the guts of the green lacewing, Chrysoperla carnea Stephens (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) and the ladybird beetle, Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) using both an indirect and sandwich ELISA format. We found that GWSS egg antigen was detectable for up to 30 and 12 h in the guts of C. carnea and H. axyridis; respectively, and that the sandwich ELISA was much more sensitive than the indirect ELISA. Finally, 98 field-collected lacewings were examined for sharpshooter remains using our sharpshooter-specific sandwich ELISA. The assay detected sharpshooter egg antigen in 8.2% of the lacewings examined. This work represents a first step towards identifying the GWSS predator complex.

In this study we used historical spatially referenced data on gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar) outbreaks to document that density-dependent processes can vary substantially across geographical landscapes. This variation may be due in part to geographical variation in habitat (e.g., variation in forest composition). We then used a second-order log-linear stochastic model to explore how inter-population variation in density-dependent processes affects synchronization via either synchronous stochastic forcing or dispersal. We found that geographical variation in direct density-dependence (first order) greatly diminishes synchrony caused by stochasticity but only slightly decreases synchronization via dispersal. Variation in delayed density-dependence (second order) diluted synchrony caused by regional stochasticity to a lesser extent than first-order variation, but it did not have any influence on synchrony caused by dispersal. In general, synchronization caused by dispersal was primarily dependent upon the instability of populations and only weakly, if at all, affected by similarities in density-dependence among populations. We conclude that studies of synchrony should carefully consider both the nature of the synchronizing agents and the pattern of local density-dependent processes, including how these vary geographically.

AN - 68800957; 16942993 AB - Clostridium perfringens growth from a spore inoculum was investigated in vacuum-packaged, cook-in-bag marinated chicken breast that included 0%, 1.5%, 3%, or 4.8% sodium lactate (NaL; w/w). The packages were processed to an internal temperature of 71.1 degrees C, ice chilled and stored at 4, 19, and 25 degrees C. The total C. perfringens population was determined by plating diluted samples on Tryptose-sulfite-cycloserine agar followed by anaerobic incubation for 48 h at 37 degrees C. At 25 degrees C, addition of 1.5% NaL was effective in delaying growth for 29 h. Increasing the NaL level to 4.8%, C. perfringens growth from a spore inoculum during storage at 25 degrees C for 480 h was not observed. At 19 degrees C, the growth was > 6 log 10 cfu/g by 288 h in control samples. In samples with 3.0% or 4.8% NaL, the growth of C. perfringens from spores was dramatically restricted with little or no growth in 648 h at 19 degrees C. C. perfringens growth was not observed at 4 degrees C regardless of NaL concentration. The D-values at 55 degrees C ranged from 47.40 (no NaL) to 57.58 min (1.5% NaL). Cyclic and static temperature abuse of refrigerated products for 20 h did not permit C. perfringens growth. However, temperature abuse of products for periods 24 h or longer in the absence of NaL led to growth of C. perfringens from a spore inoculum. An extra degree of safety may be assured in such products by supplementation with NaL at 1.5-4.8% NaL level.

We found significant differences in the frequency of the micronuclei when using the Trad-MCN test in local of Duben. The Tradescantia pollen abortivity test showed significant differences in the frequency of the abortive pollen grains between the exposed groups and the control group. By using native plant species in the pollen abortivity test we found significant differences in both of the two locations for the four following species during two consecutive years: Artemisia vulgaris, Melilotus albus, Trifolium pratense, Typha latifolia.

AN - 67958539; 16686163 AB - Computed tomography, an imaging technique commonly used for diagnosing internal human health ailments, uses multiple x-rays and sophisticated software to recreate a cross-sectional representation of a subject. The use of this technique to image hard red winter wheat, Triticum aestivm L., samples infested with pupae of Sitophilus oryzae (L.) was investigated. A software program was developed to rapidly recognize and quantify the infested kernels. Samples were imaged in a 7.6-cm (o.d.) plastic tube containing 0, 50, or 100 infested kernels per kg of wheat. Interkernel spaces were filled with corn oil so as to increase the contrast between voids inside kernels and voids among kernels. Automated image processing, using a custom C language software program, was conducted separately on each 100 g portion of the prepared samples. The average detection accuracy in the five infested kernels per 100-g samples was 94.4 +/- 7.3% (mean +/- SD, n = 10), whereas the average detection accuracy in the 10 infested kernels per 100-g sample was 87.3 +/- 7.9% (n = 10). Detection accuracy in the 10 infested kernels per 100-g samples was slightly less than the five infested kernels per 100-g samples because of some infested kernels overlapping with each other or air bubbles in the oil. A mean of 1.2 +/- 0.9 (n = 10) bubbles (per tube) was incorrectly classed as infested kernels in replicates containing no infested kernels. In light of these positive results, future studies should be conducted using additional grains, insect species, and life stages.

AN - 67958200; 16686136 AB - Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae), a pest native to China and Korea, was discovered in North America in 1996. Currently, the only reliable strategy available for eradication and control is to cut and chip all infested trees. We evaluated various doses of the systemic insecticides azadirachtin, emamectin benzoate, imidacloprid, and thiacloprid for control of A. glabripennis in naturally infested elms (Ulmus spp.), poplars (Populus spp.), and willows (Salix spp. ) in China between 2000 and 2002. Significantly more dead A. glabripennis adults were found beneath elm and poplar trees treated with imidacloprid (in 2000 and 2001) or thiacloprid (in 2001) and beneath willow trees injected with imidacloprid or thiacloprid (in 2002) compared with control trees. In 2000, 4 mo after injection, the density of live A. glabripennis was significantly reduced in poplar trees treated with imidacloprid (90%) and in willow trees treated with imidacloprid (83%) or emamectin benzoate (71%) compared with controls. In 2001, 9 mo after injection, the density of live A. glabripennis was significantly reduced in poplar (76%) and willow (45%) trees treated with imidacloprid compared with control trees. Similarly, percentage mortality of all life stages of A. glabripennis feeding within trees was significantly higher on poplar trees 4 mo after injection with imidacloprid (64%) in 2000 and on elms (55%) and poplars (63%) 9 mo after injection with imidacloprid in 2001 compared with control trees. Imidacloprid residue levels in leaves and twigs collected at various times from 1 d to 9 mo after injection ranged from 0.27 to 0.46 ppm. Injecting A. glabripennis-infested trees with imidacloprid can result in significant mortality of adults during maturation feeding on leaves and twigs and of all life stages feeding within infested trees. Imidacloprid is translocated rapidly in infested trees and is persistent at lethal levels for several months. Although, injection with imidacloprid does not provide complete control of A. glabripennis, systemic insecticides may prove useful as part of an integrated eradication or management program.

AN - 67958187; 16686150 AB - The effect of fipronil-treated sand on digging behavior and mortality of red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta Buren, workers was examined in the laboratory. No-choice digging bioassays where fipronil-treated sand was the only available digging substrate were conducted on two colonies at fipronil concentrations of 0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.50, 1.00, 1.50, and 2.00 ppm. Workers dug into the fipronil-treated sand in all cases, even at 2.0 ppm level, which caused 100% mortality in acute toxicity tests for both colonies. At 1.5 and 2.0 ppm, workers from the less sensitive colony had significantly higher mortality than those from the more sensitive colony, which might be explained by the significantly higher digging activity of the less sensitive colony. In two-choice digging bioassays where untreated sand was also available, workers dug into the fipronil-treated sand in 29 of 30 cases, even at 10.0 ppm level. At 1.0 and 10.0 ppm, mortality was positively correlated to digging effort in treated sand; however, such correlation was significant only at 1.0 ppm level. This indicates that digging did affect mortality; however, such effect is concentration dependent.

AN - 67885714; 16629011 AB - Foodborne illness due to the consumption of contaminated raw or lightly cooked sprouts is a continuing food safety concern. In this study, we tested several plant-associated pseudomonads for their ability to inhibit the growth of Salmonella enterica both in vitro and in situ. An agar spot bioassay method was used with three different media. Only Pseudomonas fluorescens 2-79 produced clear zones of inhibition when tested against five serovars of S. enterica, and activity was dependent on media type and serovar. The antibiosis by derivative strains of P. fluorescens 2-79 defective in the production of phenazine-1-carboxylic acid and fluorescent siderophore was not reduced, indicating that these known antimicrobial metabolites were not responsible for the inhibition observed in our studies. However, mutants defective in the regulatory gene gacS (global antibiotic and cyanide control) were severely reduced in inhibitory activity. In tryptic soy broth, the control cultures of a cocktail of S. enterica strains reached approximately 10 log CFU/ml by 24 h but, when coinoculated with P. fluorescens 2-79, reached only approximately 5 log CFU/ml. The addition of P. fluorescens 2-79 to the seed soak water prior to the germination of alfalfa seed previously inoculated with a cocktail of S. enterica strains led to an average reduction of 5 log CFU/g at 6 days of sprouting without an adverse effect on sprout yield or appearance. Time course studies indicated that S. enterica outgrowth was controlled on days 1 through 6 of sprouting. Competitive exclusion as a potential food safety intervention for seed sprouts merits further study.

AN - 67884125; 16629033 AB - A design-of-experiments approach was used to examine the effect of hexadecylpyridinium chloride (HPC), alone or in combination with the antibiotics vancomycin and natamycin, on the growth of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP). At concentrations above 74.4 microg/ml, HPC had a highly significant detrimental effect on the growth of MAP, whereas natamycin at 10.8 and 21.6 microg/ml and vancomycin at 5.2 and 10.4 microg/ml did not have such an effect. Titration of the amount of HPC tolerated by MAP indicated that growth can occur in the presence of 24.8 microg/ml or lower. Processing of bovine fecal specimens indicated that reducing the concentration of HPC from 32.22 to 1.07 mg/ml during decontamination may improve detection when cultures are grown on solid medium but not when cultures are grown in liquid medium. Further investigation into optimizing HPC concentration during processing of fecal samples is warranted. Natamycin, in conjunction with vancomycin, may be useful for controlling fungal contamination during isolation of MAP from fecal samples.

AN - 67839069; 16597989 AB - Since the stomach is a first line of defense for the host against ingested microorganisms, an ex vivo swine stomach contents (SSC) assay was developed to search for genes important for Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium survival in the hostile gastric environment. Initial characterization of the SSC assay (pH 3.87) using previously identified, acid-sensitive serovar Typhimurium mutants revealed a 10-fold decrease in survival for a phoP mutant following 20 min of challenge and no survival for mutants of rpoS or fur. To identify additional genes, a signature-tagged mutagenesis bank was constructed and screened in the SSC assay. Nineteen mutants were identified and individually analyzed in the SSC and acid tolerance response assays; 13 mutants exhibited a 10-fold or greater sensitivity in the SSC assay compared to the wild-type strain, but only 3 mutants displayed a 10-fold or greater decrease in survival following pH 3.0 acidic challenge. Further examination determined that the lethal effects of the SSC are pH dependent but that low pH is not the sole killing mechanism(s). Gas chromatography analysis of the SSC revealed lactic acid levels of 126 mM. Upon investigating the effects of lactic acid on serovar Typhimurium survival in a synthetic gastric fluid, not only was a concentration- and time-dependent lethal effect observed, but the phoP, rpoS, fur, and pnp genes were identified as involved in protection against lactic acid exposure. These studies indicate a role in gastric survival for several serovar Typhimurium genes and imply that the stomach environment is defined by more than low pH.

AN - 67836540; 16600936 AB - Smoking causes genetic damage in buccal cells and increases the risk of oral cancer. Because folate is instrumental in DNA synthesis and repair, it is a determinant of genetic stability and therefore might attenuate the genotoxic effects of smoking. Our aim was to compare the presence of folate metabolites and select indicators of genetic damage in the mouths of chronic smokers and nonsmokers. Dietary, biochemical, and molecular correlates of folate status were measured in healthy smoker (n = 35) and nonsmoker (n = 21) groups of comparable age, sex, and body mass indexes. After correction for dietary intake, the smokers displayed lower plasma, erythrocyte, and buccal mucosal cell (BMC) folate (20%, 32%, and 50% lower, respectively; P < 0.05) and lower plasma vitamin B-12 and pyridoxal 5-phosphate (P < 0.05) than did nonsmokers. Folate in the BMCs of smokers comprised significantly greater proportions of pteroylmonoglutamate, formyltetrahydrofolate, and 5,10-methenyltetrahyrofolate than did folate in the BMCs of nonsmokers. Although the degree of genomic methylation and uracil incorporation in the buccal cells of the 2 groups were not significantly different, the BMC micronucleus index, a cytologic indicator of genetic damage, in the smokers was 2-fold that of the nonsmokers (9.57 compared with 4.44 micronuclei/1000 cells; P < 0.0001). Neither systemic nor oral folate status was an independent predictor of micronuclei. Chronic smoking is associated with a lower systemic status of several B vitamins, reduced oral folate, and changes in folate form distribution in the mouth. However, the cytologic damage that is evident in the mouths of smokers does not correlate with oral folate status.

AN - 67782764; 16550462 AB - A bacterium that reduces toxic and mobile selenite to insoluble elemental selenium (Se0) was isolated from a laboratory scale permeable reactive biobarrier. Biochemical tests and 16S rRNA gene sequence alignment identified the isolate as Aeromonas salmonicida. Two colony types were isolated, one more resistant to selenite than the other. Both grew on agar plates containing 16 mM: selenite, although the colony diameter was reduced to 8% of controls with the small colony type and to 18% with the large colony type. Further study was done with the large colony type. In anaerobic culture, this bacterium was able to use nitrate as a term electron acceptor but not selenate or selenite. In aerobic culture, when no nitrate was present, early log phase cells removed selenite at a rate of 2.6 +/- 0.42 micromol SeO3 (-2)/mg protein/day. Reduction was retarded by 25 mM: nitrate. Mutants with a diminished ability to reduce selenite to Se0 also had a reduced ability to reduce nitrate to nitrous oxide. This bacterium, or perhaps its enzymes or DNA, might be used to remove selenite from contaminated groundwaters.

AN - 67749725; 15927239 AB - The application of poultry litter to agricultural fields can provide plant nutrients for crops and forage production, but fecal bacteria and the sex hormones estradiol and testosterone are components of litter that can be detrimental to the environment. Our objective was to determine if applications of poultry litter to small watersheds would contribute to the load of fecal bacteria and sex hormones to soil and runoff. We, therefore, investigated the fate and transport of fecal bacteria, estradiol and testosterone from surface applied poultry litter to four small watersheds. Poultry litter was applied to meet the nitrogen requirements of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) in 2000 and grain sorghum [Sorgham bicolor (L.) Moench] in 2001. Neither Salmonella nor Campylobacter were detected in the litter but the fecal indicator bacteria were. The average load of total coliforms,Escherichia coli, and fecal enterococci applied with the litter was 12.2, 11.9, and 12.7 log10 cells ha(−1), respectively. The average load of estradiol and testosterone was 3.1 and 0.09 mg ha(-1), respectively.Runoff events first occurred seven months after the first litter application in 2000, and three weeks after the second application in 2001.Only for the 25 July 2001 runoff event three weeks after the second litter application, were the concentrations of total coliforms, E. coli,and fecal enterococci in runoff greater than background concentrations which were on average 5.2, 1.1, and 2.9 log10 MPN 100 ml(−1),respectively [corrected]. Average background levels of total coliforms, fecal enterococci,and E. coli in surface soil were 8.2, 7.9, and 3.5 log (10) cells kg(−1) soil. At the rate of litter application the concentrations of estradiol and testosterone in the litter did not appear to impact the background levels in the soil and runoff. Because concentrations of sex hormones in litter from other broiler operations are known to be greater than in the litter we applied, further study on the connection between concentrations of sex hormones in poultry litter and operational practices is recommended.

The use of this information can increase confidence in hydropedological site assessments and reduce the number of wells needed for water-table depth and ground-water flow determinations. Ground-penetrating radar was used to map spatial and temporal variations in water-table depths and ground-water flow patterns within an unconfined aquifer located beneath an eolian landscape in northwestern Indiana. Compared with the data collected at a limited number of wells, the greater number of observations with GPR provided more comprehensive site coverage and mapped more intricate local ground-water flow patterns. Over a 2-year period, GPR revealed systematic temporal and spatial variations in water-table depths and local ground-water flow patterns.

AN - 36874699; 3543319 AB - This article examines how accounting for cost-of-living differences across metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas affects measured rates of poverty. The spatial price index used is based on the Fair Market Rent data and was developed by the Census Bureau for use in its experimental poverty research program. Following US federal definitions, poverty in nonmetro areas has been consistently higher than it has been in metro areas.

We tested this assumption by evaluating the potential for two host-specific biological control agents (Urophora spp.), widely established in North America for spotted knapweed (Centaurea maculosa) control, to indirectly elevate Sin Nombre hantavirus by providing food subsidies to populations of deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus), the primary reservoir for the virus. We show that seropositive deer mice (mice testing positive for hantavirus) were over three times more abundant in the presence of the biocontrol food subsidy. Elevating densities of seropositive mice may increase risk of hantavirus infection in humans and significantly alter hantavirus ecology. Host specificity alone does not ensure safe biological control. To minimize indirect risks to non-target species, biological control agents must suppress pest populations enough to reduce their own numbers.

The impact of recent land-use changes was evaluated using observed precipitation and streamflow data from the Little River watershed in south-central Georgia in the U.S. Land-use patterns within the watershed were examined through classification of satellite images collected from 1975 to 2003. While some changes in land-use were determined, analysis of the data indicated that the overall changes were less than the typical classification errors obtained. Based on the analysis of the satellite imagery, conservation practices implemented in the Little River watershed have not significantly altered total forest acreage. In addition, 34 years of hydrologic data collected from this watershed do not indicate any significant changes in hydrologic patterns. The long-term average ratio of annual flow to annual precipitation for the Little River watershed has remained stable at approximately 0.27. Year-to-year variation of the ratio varied from a high of 0.41 observed during a year with above-normal winter rainfall to 0.06 observed during a year with very low annual rainfall. When subwatersheds of the Little River were compared, significant differences in their responsiveness to rainfall were found. Linear regression between precipitation and streamflow produced regression coefficients between 0.62 and 0.90. These differences were attributed to differences in physical characteristics and land-use. Long-term data from the watersheds indicate that streamflow response is dominated by annual and seasonal precipitation characteristics.

Primers and probes were also developed for detecting P. pseudosyringae, a newly described species that causes symptoms similar to P. ramorum on certain hosts. The species-specific primer-probe systems were combined in a multiplex assay with a plant primer-probe system to allow plant DNA present in extracted samples to serve as a positive control in each reaction. The lower limit of detection of P. ramorum DNA was 1 fg of genomic DNA, lower than for many other described PCR procedures for detecting Phytophthora species. The assay was also used in a three-way multiplex format to simultaneously detect P. ramorum, P. pseudosyringae, and plant DNA in a single tube. P. ramorum was detected down to a 10 super(-5) dilution of extracted tissue of artificially infected rhododendron 'Cunningham's White', and the amount of pathogen DNA present in the infected tissue was estimated using a standard curve. The multiplex assay was also used to detect P. ramorum in infected California field samples from several hosts determined to contain the pathogen by other methods. The real-time PCR assay we describe is highly sensitive and specific, and has several advantages over conventional PCR assays used for P. ramorum detection to confirm positive P. ramorum finds in nurseries and elsewhere.

Analysis of variance indicated no significant difference between cyclone and filter samplers in quantity of colony forming units caught, but there was a positive correlation between catches of the three separate impaction samplers (r = 0.84-0.99, P>0.05). There was no detectable correlation between impaction sampler catches and cyclone catches (r=0.12-0.33; P>0.05). Cyclone samplers collected a dry sample that was easy to process for quantification of fungal propagules. Size of conidia of A. flavus (combined with filter retention studies) suggests that the predominant propagules caught by the cyclone sampler were conidia, rather than sclerotia or infected vegetative matter. Using a water-soluble coating, rotorods collected viable conidia of A. flavus under controlled environment conditions, but not in the field, although viable propagules of other fungi were caught, including other Aspergilli. In the desert environment the rotorods became overloaded with particles of dust if operated for more than 2 h. Where isolate culture is required, cyclone samplers are ideal for collecting airborne A. flavus propagules in dry climates.

Pseudacteon tricuspisBorgmeier, a parasitoid phorid fly, has been introduced to the United States from South America as a potential biocontrol agent of the red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invictaBuren. We conducted tests of host specificity on introduced populations of P. tricuspis, which are attracted to alarm pheromones released by their hosts during events such as mound disturbances and interspecific interactions. We monitored disturbed mounds of S. invicta and its close congener, S. geminata(F.), during the expansion of P. tricuspis across north Florida and after populations had been established for ~3 years. We also tested host acceptance in established populations of P. tricuspis by offering trays containing S. invicta, S. geminata, and 14 additional ant species representing 12 different non-Solenopsis genera. Although P. tricuspiswas commonly observed to hover over and attempt to oviposit on S. invicta, we never observed any parasitization attempts on any other ant species. As predicted by laboratory tests, released populations of P. tricuspis appear to be highly host specific and pose no obvious threat to nontarget species.

Our research investigates the acceptability and preferences of a range of plants for oviposition by the predatory bug Orius insidiosus (Say) (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) in the laboratory. Within-plant preferences on pole beans as oviposition sites were evaluated in laboratory choice tests. The acceptability and preference of O. insidiosus females for pole bean, soybean, redroot pigweed, and velvetleaf were evaluated in choice and no-choice tests (respectively) in the laboratory. Observations on the acceptability of green foxtail, orchardgrass, buffalograss, smooth brome, redtop grass, blue grama, and tall fescue for oviposition were also conducted. O. insidiosus preferred to lay its eggs on the petiole and leaflet petioles of pole beans, and did not distinguish among nodes or petioles of different lengths. Although all broadleaved plants were suitable for egg development, the acceptability of these plants differed significantly, with pole beans being most acceptable and almost no eggs being laid on velvetleaf. Preference tests supported the results of the no-choice tests, with pole bean being the most preferred, and no eggs being laid on the velvetleaf. Green foxtail and orchardgrass were the only grass species found to be acceptable to O. insidiosus. The implications of soybean monocultures on the reproductive capacity of and biological control by O. insidiosus are discussed, as are possible mechanisms underlying the decision-making process for oviposition.

Spirlin 51 mm (adults), whereas individuals between 41 and 50 mm L sub(S)(late juveniles) represented an intermediate interval during which major changes in shape appeared to occur. Adults had proportionally smaller eyes, deeper body, and longer preanal part of the body than the early and 'middle' juveniles. These differences tended to coincide with the differences observed in microhabitat use of spirlin, namely a generally increasing preference for high velocity areas with increasing age of the fish. Thus, changes in external morphometry occurring during the ontogeny of spirlin might reflect an increasing affinity for more complex, lotic microhabitats as well as developments associated with sexual maturation.

The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) water quality model is designed to assess nonpoint and point source pollution and was recently modified for tile drainage. Over 25% of the nation's cropland required improved drainage. In this study, the model's ability to validate the tile drainage component is evaluated with nine years of hydrologic monitoring data collected from the South Fork watershed in Iowa, since about 80% of this watershed is tile drained. This watershed is a Conservation Effects Assessment Program benchmark watershed and typifies one of the more intensively managed agricultural areas in the Midwest. Comparison of measured and predicted values demonstrated that inclusion of the tile drainage system is imperative for obtaining a realistic watershed water balance. Two calibration/validation scenarios tested if the results differed in how the data set was divided. The optimum scenario results for the simulated monthly and daily flows had Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency (E sub(NS)) values during the calibration/validation (1995-1998/1999-2004) periods of 0.9/0.7 and 0.5/0.4, respectively. The second scenario results for the simulated monthly and daily flows had E sub(NS) values during the calibration/validation (1995-2000/2001-2004) periods of 0.8/0.5 and 0.7/0.2, respectively. The optimum scenario reflects the distribution of peak rainfall events represented in both the calibration and validation periods. The year 2000, being extremely dry, negatively impacted both the calibration and validation results. Each water budget component of the model gave reasonable output, which reveals that this model can be used for the assessment of tile drainage with its associated practices. Water yield results were significantly different for the simulations with and without the tile flow component (25.1% and 16.9%, expressed as a percent of precipitation). The results suggest that the SWAT2005 version modified for tile drainage is a promising tool to evaluate streamflow in tile-drained regions when the calibration period contains streamflows representing a wide range of rainfall events.

A new generation of copper organic preservatives was formulated as replacements, but these preservatives may not provide a permanent solution to all related problems. Some of these issues include concern over copper in aquatic environments and corrosion of fasteners. Copper preservatives in general are also poor inhibitors of mould. Therefore, we still need to evaluate alternative solutions in order to address current inadequacies of copper organic wood preservatives. In this study, six hardwoods and six softwoods were evaluated for their ability to resist termite damage by Reticulitermes flavipes. Mass loss versus specific gravity showed an inverse correlation in tropical hardwood species, but a slightly positive correlation in native softwood species. Also, southern yellow pine and Douglas-fir wood blocks were evaluated after treatment with 0.1% copper borate, water-borne (WB) copper naphthanate, and N'N-naphthaloylhydroxylamine (NHA). Erisma, juniper, ipe, and white-cedar were highly resistant. The NHA-protected Douglas-fir and southern pine resisted attack as effectively as copper borate or WB copper naphthanate treatment. These results indicate that selected naturally durable wood species, both tropical and native, inhibit R. flavipes damage as effectively as preservative treatment.

PBDEs are used as flame retardants in many household items and have been found in wastewaters and biosolids. Evidence of PBDE release from spray irrigation facilities was discovered during a multiyear project to measure semivolatile organic chemical concentrations in air. Four BDE congeners (47, 99, 100, and 154) were monitored at three remote/rural locations in Maryland and Delaware from 2001 to 2003. Average concentrations at two of the sites (BDE-47, 10-17 pg/m super(3); BDE-99, 5.3-7.7 pg/m super(3)) reflect background levels. Average concentrations at the third location were 5-10 times higher (BDE-47,175 pg/m super(3); BDE-99,26 pg/m super(3)) and were significantly correlated (p < 0.0001) with temperature indicating local source(s). Several spray irrigation facilities are located south and west of the third site, the prevailing wind direction during the spring and summer when most samples were collected. The fine mist released from the irrigation equipment may enhance release to the atmosphere via air-water gas exchange from water droplets. Temporal trends indicate that aerial concentrations of PBDEs in this area are increasing at an exponential rate; the atmospheric doubling times for the different congeners range from 1.1 to 1.7 yrs.

ToCV can cause a decline in plant vigor and reduce fruit yield. It is emerging as a serious production problem for field and greenhouse tomato growers, and has been increasing in prevalence in many parts of the world. The virus is unique among known whitefly-transmitted viruses, due to its ability to be transmitted by four whitefly vectors from two genera. Studies demonstrated that transmission efficiency and virus persistence in the vector varies significantly among the different whitefly vectors. Trialeurodes abutilonea and Bemisia tabaci biotype B are highly efficient vectors of ToCV. B. tabaci biotype A and T. vaporariorum are less efficient vectors, but are fully capable of transmission. ToCV persists for up to 5 days in T. abutilonea, 2 days in B. tabaci biotype B, and only 1 day in B. tabaci biotype A and T. vaporariorum. ToCV has a moderately wide host range, infecting 24 host plant species in seven families. A portion of the coat protein coding region of five geographically diverse ToCV isolates was compared and found to be highly conserved. This information, coupled with existing information on conservation within the heat shock protein 70 homologue coding region, suggests that many ToCV isolates throughout the world are related very closely, and may have been distributed on plant material.

The equation, shoot dry weight (g) = 14.254 (standard error = +/-0.275) x shoot height super(2) (m), was as effective at explaining a high proportion of total variation in shoot dry weight (R super(2) = 0.90) as more complicated equations containing additional morphometric parameters. Tested against two independent datasets, the equation provided accurate estimates of dry weight for shoots ranging from 0.3 to 7.06 m height (dataset 1, P - 0.0001, R super(2) = 0.87, N = 29; dataset 2, P - 0.0001, R super(2) = 0.82, N = 192). The equation provides aboveground biomass estimates from stem counts and heights more rapidly than harvest methods.

The search algorithm reduces the number of distance calculations between a given target vector and each reference vector, thereby decreasing the time needed to discover the NN subset. Results of five trials show gains in NN search efficiency ranging from 75 to 98% for k = 1. The search algorithm can be easily incorporated into routines that optimize feature subsets or weights, values of k, distance decomposition coefficients, and mapping.

Understanding the relationship between fuel treatments and nonnative plants is becoming increasingly important as federal and state agencies are currently implementing large fuel treatment programs throughout the United States to reduce the threat of wildland fire. Our study included 24 fuel breaks located across the State of California. We found that nonnative plant abundance was over 200% higher on fuel breaks than in adjacent wildland areas. Relative nonnative cover was greater on fuel breaks constructed by bulldozers (28%) than on fuel breaks constructed by other methods (7%). Canopy cover, litter cover, and duff depth also were significantly lower on fuel breaks constructed by bulldozers, and these fuel breaks had significantly more exposed bare ground than other types of fuel breaks. There was a significant decline in relative nonnative cover with increasing distance from the fuel break, particularly in areas that had experienced more numerous fires during the past 50 years, and in areas that had been grazed. These data suggest that fuel breaks could provide establishment sites for nonnative plants, and that nonnatives may invade surrounding areas, especially after disturbances such as fire or grazing. Fuel break construction and maintenance methods that leave some overstory canopy and minimize exposure of bare ground may be less likely to promote nonnative plants.

Information exists about the impact of these practices on water quality, but data related to runoff and associated nutrient and sediment movement due to high intensity, late summer storms in the southern Great Plains are limited. This study examined runoff and runoff water quality from two winter wheat management strategies: winter wheat with summer chemical fallow (WWF) and winter wheat with summer legumes (WWSL) and two grazing treatments (grazed and ungrazed) from 1998 to 2002. Four pastures were planted in conservation winter wheat and grazed from November to May. Summer legumes were direct seeded in two of the pastures in March and grazed mid-July to September. Runoff from plots (1.5 x 3 m) was quantified with a rainfall simulator, with rainfall intensities representing a late summer, short duration (15 min), high intensity (10 cm/h) summer storm. Runoff samples were analyzed for nitrate-N (NO sub(3)-N), bioavailable and water-soluble phosphorus (BAP and WSP, respectively), and sediment yield. Overall, the WWF practice had greater runoff, sediment, and nutrient losses than the WWSL strategy. Likewise, grazing produced greater runoff, sediment, and nutrient losses than ungrazed plots. The worst-case scenario was WWF pastures that incorporated winter grazing, with 71% of applied rainfall lost as runoff. The greatest losses for sediment (284 kg/ha), NO sub(3)-N (124 kg/ha), BAP (380 g/ha), and WSP (38 g/ha) were found with the grazed WWF practice. Understanding the mechanism of interaction between late summer storms and summer management practices will improve large-scale mitigation strategies to reduce erosion and enhance capture of water resources.

California has been highly impacted by invaders, although many relict stands of native plants are found on shallow, rocky soils with limited resources. The abiotic conditions of these sites may strongly influence the performance of an invasive plant and its effect on resident native species. In addition, the maturity of native plants in these sites may modulate an invader's impact; larger, well-established plants may be better able to resist invaders. In this study we examined how the impact of an invasive thistle (Centaurea solstitialis) on a native perennial bunchgrass (Nassella pulchra) changed in response to variation in soil depth, soil water availability, and bunchgrass maturity. We measured plant performance in terms of survival, growth, reproduction, and predawn water potential. We found that soil depth, water availability, and bunchgrass maturity acted in concert to influence the impact of the invasive thistle on the native bunchgrass. Both species performed better in deep soils, especially during dry years. The combination of shallow soil and low water availability reduced C. solstitialis performance and ameliorated its negative effect on N. pulchra growth and reproduction. Higher water availability resulted in a stronger negative effect of C. solstitialis on N. pulchra in both shallow and deep soils. However, as N. pulchra matured and increased in size, we saw a steady decline in C. solstitialis growth and reproductive output. Higher water availability increased the performance of C. solstitialis in shallow soils. C. solstitialis may thus have a stronger impact on N. pulchra and be more able to invade relict stands of N. pulchra in shallow soils during high-rainfall years. However, established stands of N. pulchra appear to be more resistant to invasion by C. solstitialis as N. pulchra plants grow older and larger.

The 9-point hedonic scale is the most widely used scale to determine consumer acceptance; however, research has indicated that line scales may provide equal reliability and greater sensitivity. The objectives of this study were to characterize consumer perception of FF flavor in peanuts and to compare the effectiveness of the two scale types. Consumers (n = 208) evaluated control (no FF), low-intensity (1.0) FF and high-intensity (3.0) FF peanut pastes for the strength-intensity of roasted peanut flavor (RPF), sweet taste (ST), fresh peanut flavor (FPF) and overall liking (OV) using randomly assigned ballots. Sensitivity in defining consumer perception of off-flavor in peanuts was greater with use of line scales than with the hedonic scale. The line scale indicated that FF flavor in peanuts, even at low intensity, negatively impacted OV and further identified significantly lower RPF and FPF perception by consumers. The hedonic scale identified only a difference in FPF and was not sensitive enough to show a difference in OV.

In this study, we used thiourea to construct a reactive surface barrier (RSB) at the soil surface for reducing 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) volatilization. The agrochemical thiourea could rapidly transform volatile 1,3-D to nonvolatile products via an S sub(N)2 nucleophilic substitution reaction. A catalytic mechanism in thioureaamended soil facilitated the conversion process. A packed soil column system was employed to investigate the emissions and distribution of 1,3-D and optimize the original fumigant emission-reduction strategy. Volatilization of 1,3-D from the soil surface was significantly reduced in columns amended with a thiourea RSB compared with that of bare soil. Volatilization flux and cumulative emissions decreased with increasing thiourea application rate and increasing fumigation depth in packed soil columns. Surface amendment with the RSB did not affect the subsurface distribution of 1,3-D in the soil profile. Combined application of a thiourea RSB and plastic tarps had a synergetic effect in emission control and could eliminate the relatively high fumigant flux that occurs upon tarp disruption. Therefore, this reduced-risk practice was very effective in reducing atmospheric emissions of VOCs from soil treatment with halogenated fumigants.

There are questions, however, about whether changing environmental conditions such as global climate change, invasive species (including pests and diseases), human-altered disturbance regimes, and widespread land-use changes will allow return to historic conditions, what constitutes naturalness, and whether restoration should incorporate continuing management. Active, intentional management (AIM) is a conservation approach that emphasizes a full range of active and passive management techniques to manage important ecological and hydrologic processes to conserve biodiversity; reconcile conflicts over management of natural resources; and provide various goods, ecological services, and recreational and spiritual opportunities to people over the long term. AIM includes intangibles such as knowing that rare species exist, that 'wild' places are deliberately in place, and that ecological services important to the biosphere are maintained. How does AIM compare to restoration? Can AIM meet restoration goals? Specifically, can AIM reproduce the 10 traits of pristine ecosystems identified by SERPER? Measures can be used to evaluate success. For ecosystems, diversity of vascular plants, composition of functional groups of soil organisms, biotic integrity of vertebrate communities, and biocomplexity can be measured. For landscapes, simulations can project values: 1) capacity to support vertebrate diversity; 2) forest-floor function as measured by biotic integrity; 3) ecological productivity and ability to support medium-size predators as evidenced by biomass of mammalian frugivores; 4) ecological productivity and ability to sustain large predators, subsistence hunting by Native Americans, and sport hunting, as measured by production of corvids; 5) production of wood; 6) revenues; and 7) employment, which are measures of social, economic, and environmental sustainability. Would such forests seem natural? Perhaps what is needed are experiential comparisons of the abstract purity of pristine nature with contemplative experience of wildness in an intentionally managed mosaic ... to immerse oneself in an AIM forest to experience aloneness as night falls, the moon rises, and the wolf howls.

Separate groups of specific-pathogen-free rainbow trout were infected with either Flavobacterium psychrophilum, Aeromonas salmonicida or infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV). Three different concentrations of each pathogen were used and samples from infected and mock-infected fish were taken at either 1 or 5 days after infection. Ten fish were sampled at each time point for individual sections of liver, spleen and head kidney. Organ specimens from five of the fish were used to re-isolate and quantify the pathogen at the time the samples were taken. Total RNA was extracted from the organs of the remaining five animals. Using real-time polymerase chain reaction with fluorescent-labelled probes, the RNA from these organs was examined for the level of expression of the following immunological factors; an interferon related protein (MX-1), interleukin-8 (IL-8), the cytotoxic T-cell marker CD-8 and complement factor C3 (C3). They were also measured for the level of beta -actin, which was used as a standardization control for cellular RNA expression. Infection with IHNV produced the greatest change in expression level for all the immunological related factors examined in this study. IHNV elicited the best dose response profile, which was typically seen at 5-days post-infection for MX-1, C3, IL-8 and CD-8. Infection with A. salmonicida and F. psychrophilum showed elevated, but variable expression levels for several of the genes tested.

Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flugge) seedlings, colonized by AM fungi, were transplanted into raised bed enclosures. Media within the enclosures was vermiculite mixed with either field soil or yard clippings compost in Experiment I and vermiculite mixed with yard clippings compost or dairy manure/leaf compost in Experiment II. Compost and vermiculite mixtures yielded more propagules of AM fungi than soil-based mixtures in Experiment I. Growth of plants in a 1:4 (v/v) mixture of yard clippings compost and vermiculite produced more inoculum (503 propagules cm super(-3)) than growth in 1:9 and 1:99 (v/v) mixtures (240 and 42 propagules cm super(-3), respectively). Water, inorganic nutrient solution minus P, and fish protein digest were added to inoculum production enclosures in Experiment II. Results indicated that supplemental nutrient addition was unnecessary. This method produces a concentrated inoculum of AM fungi in a form readily used as an amendment to horticultural potting media for the production of vegetable seedlings.

Colony diameter of A. mellea was significantly inhibited by undiluted inoculant (P < 0.0001) and by bacterial isolates cultured from the inoculant (Bacillus subtilis, B. lentimorbus, Comamonas testosteroni, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, P. mendocina, P < 0.0001) relative to diameter of the nontreated control. Efficacy of the inoculant for postinfection control of Armillaria root disease of grapevine was examined in an A. mellea-infested vineyard in northern California. Inoculant was applied via drip-irrigation to vine rows in replicate blocks in 2003 and 2004. Yield, growth, mineral nutrition, and juice quality parameters of healthy and symptomatic vines were measured in treated and nontreated vine rows. Significantly decreased petiole P and K concentrations and significantly lower soluble solids content in fruit from symptomatic vines demonstrated that Armillaria root disease negatively affects vine mineral nutritional status and fruit quality, findings that have not been previously reported for an agronomic host of A. mellea. The inoculant significantly increased cluster weights of symptomatic vines (109.63 g/cluster), relative to those of symptomatic-nontreated vines (92.05 g/cluster), to levels comparable to those of healthy vines (122.09 g/cluster). However, the inoculant did not decrease the rate of symptom development or mortality of treated vines from 2002 to 2004. The results of our field experiment suggest that the inoculant may not prevent Armillaria root disease, but can provide therapeutic benefit by improving productivity of infected vines.

At the first level of defense, the pathogens are rebuffed by physical barriers, including the cuticle and peritrophic membrane. Upon breaching these barriers, pathogens meet with an arsenal of robust and efficacious immune defense mechanisms. Two general categories of defenses are typically recognized, humoral defenses and hemocytic or cellular defenses. The former involves induced synthesis of various antibacterial proteins and peptides, such as cecropins and lysozyme. Cellular defense mechanisms are characterized by direct interactions between circulating hemocytes and the invaders. These include phagocytosis, microaggregation, nodulation, and encapsulation. Microaggregation is a step in the nodulation process, which is responsible for clearing the bulk of bacterial infections from circulation. Coordinated cellular actions lead to encapsulation of invaders, such as parasitoid eggs, that are very much larger than individual hemocytes. While the defense mechanisms are broadly appreciated, less is known about the biochemical signals responsible for mediating and coordinating the cellular actions. We now know eicosanoids mediate phagocytosis, microaggregation, and nodulation reactions to immune challenge, as well as cell spreading, a specific step in nodulation. We have several goals in this mini review. We provide a brief background on cellular immunity, outline eicosanoid biosynthesis, and review eicosanoid actions in cellular immunity in insects. Recent work indicates some pathogens have usurped eicosanoid-mediated immunity; they disable insect immunity by inhibiting eicosanoid biosynthesis. We interpret these findings and their significance with respect to the biological control of insects. We also present preliminary work designed to test hypotheses on how eicosanoids exert their actions. We address shortcomings in our knowledge on eicosanoids in insect biology.

Three different field research approaches were designed to determine the relationship of green stem disorder to Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV) and other potential factors that may be involved in causing this disorder. The first research approach surveyed green stem disorder and BPMV in individual plants monitored in several commercial soybean fields during three growing seasons. Leaf samples from maturing plants (growth stage R6) were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for BPMV. The percentage of monitored plants infected with BPMV at growth stage R6 in some fields was higher than the incidence of green stem disorder at harvest maturity. Many plants infected with BPMV did not develop green stem disorder, and conversely, many plants that had green stem disorder were not infected with BPMV. According to a chi-square test of independence, the data indicated that green stem disorder was independent of BPMV infection at growth stage R6 (P = 0.98). A second research approach compared green stem disorder incidence in an identical set of soybean entries planted in two locations with different levels of natural virus infection. Despite differences in virus infection, including BPMV incidence, 20 of 24 entries had similar green stem disorder incidence at the two locations. A third research approach completed over two growing seasons in field cages showed that green stem disorder developed without BPMV infection. BPMV infection did not increase green stem disorder incidence in comparison to controls. Bean leaf beetle, leaf hopper, or stinkbug feeding did not have an effect on the incidence of green stem disorder. The cause of the green stem disorder remains unknown.

However, the presence of secondary parasitoids (hyperparasitoids) may lead to underestimates of primary parasitism rates based on PCR markers. This is because even though they kill the primary parasitoid, it's DNA can still be amplified, leading to an erroneous interpretation of a positive result. Another issue with secondary parasitoids is that adults are extremely difficult to identify using morphological characters. Therefore, we developed species-specific molecular markers to detect hyperparasitoids. A 16S ribosomal RNA mitochondrial gene fragment was amplified by PCR and sequenced from two secondary parasitoid species, Dendrocerus carpenteri (Curtis) (Hymenoptera: Megaspilidae) and Alloxysta xanthopsis (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera: Charipidae), four geographic isolates of the primary parasitoid, Lysiphlebus testaceipes (Cresson) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), and six aphid species common to cereal crops. Species-specific PCR primers were designed for each insect on the basis of these 16S rRNA gene sequences. Amplification of template DNA, followed by agarose gel electrophoresis, successfully distinguished D. carpenteri and A. xanthopsis from all four isolates of L. testaceipes and all six cereal aphid species in this laboratory test.

A 60-week mesocosm study with a factorial arrangement of soil type (clay loam and loamy sand) and endophyte infection (with and without) was conducted to determine potential changes in soil C and N fractions. Forage and root dry-matter production were greater with than without endophyte infection, while forage C and N concentrations were unaffected. Total, particulate, mineralizable, and aggregate-associated C and N fractions increased several fold during the course of the experiment due to large rhizosphere inputs in all treatments. The fraction of total C and N in water-stable macroaggregates (>0.25 mm) was initially 0.43 plus or minus 0.10 and 0.46 plus or minus 0.16, respectively, and increased during the course of the experiment to 0.68 plus or minus 0.06 and 0.56 plus or minus 0.15 when averaged across soil type and endophyte infection level as a result of organic matter cycling and deposition in this active biophysical fraction. Changes in soil C and N fractions due to endophyte infection were minimal. The lack of detectable changes in soil C and N fractions due to endophyte infection may have been a result of the overwhelming input of C from roots and/or the relatively short-term nature (60 weeks). Greater plant productivity of endophyte-infected tall fescue is likely a contributing mechanism for eventual changes in total and active C and N fractions that have been observed in long-term pastures.

The Bm gene, a resistance gene effective against BtMV, was identified in the sugar beet line 8500 and backcrossed into a C37 background to produce line C719. Three populations were developed from the cross of line C719 with the susceptible line C37 with the intent of developing markers for use in marker-assisted selection. The F sub(2) progeny of three crosses were scored for resistance. Two of the three populations conformed to a 3 : 1 ratio, indicating a single gene trait. Sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers were developed by using bulked segregant analysis combined with random amplified polymorphic DNA type markers. The markers showed close association to the Bm resistance gene and were effective in all three populations. The A sub(1) allele for genetic male sterility also was found to be associated with Bm and the SCAR marker. Development of a single-nucleotide polymorphism marker from the SCAR sequence was used to validate linkage to chromosome 1 using separate mapping populations. This marker will be useful for the introgression of the Bm gene into germplasm.

The Congo red-binding variant, strain 43895OR, produced a dry, aggregative colony that was similar to the red, dry, and rough (rdar) phenotype characteristic of certain strains of SALMONELLA: In contrast, variant 43895OW produced a smooth and white colony morphology. In this study, we show that, similar to rdar strains of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, strain 43895OR forms large aggregates in broth cultures, firm pellicles at the air-medium interface on glass, and dense biofilms on glass and polystyrene. However, unlike S. enterica serovar Typhimurium, strain 43895OR does not stain positive for cellulose production. When strain 43895OR was fixed on agar, scanning electron microscopy showed cells expressing extracellular matrix (ECM) containing curli fibers. Strain 43895OW was devoid of any ECM or curli fibers on agar but showed expression of curli fibers during attachment to glass. Strain 43895OR produced >4-fold-larger amounts of biofilm than strain 43895OW on polystyrene, glass, stainless steel, and Teflon; formation was >3-fold higher in rich medium than in nutrient-limited medium. Biofilm-associated cells of both strains showed statistically greater resistance (P < 0.05) to hydrogen peroxide and quaternary ammonium sanitizer than their respective planktonic cells. This study shows that the rdar phenotype of E. coli O157:H7 strain 43895OR is important in multicellular growth, biofilm formation, and resistance to sanitizers. However, the lack of cellulose production by strain 43895OR indicates important differences in the ECM composition compared to that of SALMONELLA: JF - Applied and Environmental Microbiology AU - Uhlich, Gaylen A AU - Cooke, Peter H AU - Solomon, Ethan B AD - Microbial Food Safety Research Unit.

Avoiding the use of broad-range antimicrobials through the use of specific peptidoglycan hydrolases (endolysins) might reduce the incidence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens worldwide. Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus agalactiae are human pathogens and also cause mastitis in dairy cattle. The ultimate goal of this work is to create transgenic cattle that are resistant to mastitis through the expression of an antimicrobial protein(s) in their milk. Toward this end, two novel antimicrobials were produced. The (i) full-length and (ii) 182-amino-acid, C-terminally truncated S. agalactiae bacteriophage B30 endolysins were fused to the mature lysostaphin protein of Staphylococcus simulans. Both fusions display lytic specificity for streptococcal pathogens and S. aureus. The full lytic ability of the truncated B30 protein also suggests that the SH3b domain at the C terminus is dispensable. The fusions are active in a milk-like environment. They are also active against some lactic acid bacteria used to make cheese and yogurt, but their lytic activity is destroyed by pasteurization (63 degree C for 30 min). Immunohistochemical studies indicated that the fusion proteins can be expressed in cultured mammalian cells with no obvious deleterious effects on the cells, making it a strong candidate for use in future transgenic mice and cattle. Since the fusion peptidoglycan hydrolase also kills multiple human pathogens, it also may prove useful as a highly selective, multipathogen-targeting antimicrobial agent that could potentially reduce the use of broad-range antibiotics in fighting clinical infections.

I. Insect Pest Damage AN - 19739828; 7946958 AB - At least 25 wild type and high peroxidase tobacco Nicotiana tabacum L. plants were examined semiweekly over several weeks for pest insect distribution and damage in a 2 year field study. Incidence and/or severity of naturally occurring caterpillar damage (dingy cutworm (Feltia ducens Walker), black cutworm (Agrotis ipsilon (Hufnagel), tobacco hornworm (Manduca sexta L.), and false tobacco budworm (= corn earworm Helicoverpa zea (Boddie)) was significantly reduced at several sample dates for high peroxidase vs. wild type plants. These results parallel those of prior laboratory studies with caterpillars. The number of adult whiteflies (Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood) per plant was significantly reduced on high peroxidase compared to wild type plants on most sample dates in both years. The number of plants with leaves containing >100 aphids (primarily Myzus persicae Sulzer) per leaf on high peroxidase plants was significantly lower that on wild type plants after an equivalent invasion period in both years. A significantly higher proportion of aphids were found dead on leaf five of high peroxidase compared to wild type plants at most sample dates in both years. These results indicate that high peroxidase plants have resistance to a wide range of insects, implicating this enzyme as a broad range resistance mechanism.

A proposal to salvage about 15% of the burned area, containing 0.8 million m super(3) (176 million board feet) of the damaged timber, was challenged in court, resulting in a mediation plan salvage amount of 0.27 million m super(3) (60 million board feet). Administrative planning requirements also delayed the initiation of salvage to 2003. Because timber decays following death and damage, the costs of delay can be quantified. We evaluate the costs of both reducing the salvage volume due to the litigation and the losses due to decay from the administrative delay. Simulations show that the court settlement plan created through legal challenge resulted in an $8.5 million loss to the U.S. treasury and an $8.8 million (65%) loss in net welfare under the base case market assumptions. The delay in salvaging the agreed upon salvage amount from 2001 to 2002 reduced revenues from salvage to the U.S. treasury by $1.5 million (25%) and potential welfare benefits by the same amount, under base case assumptions of market sensitivities to prices.

The beet leafhopper-transmitted virescence agent (BLTVA) phytoplasma was identified as the causal agent of the potato purple top disease outbreaks that recently occurred in the Columbia Basin of Washington and Oregon. The phytoplasma previously was found to be associated almost exclusively with the beet leafhopper, suggesting that this insect is the probable vector of BLTVA in this important potato-growing region. Eight potato cultivars, including 'Russet Burbank', 'Ranger Russet', 'Shepody', 'Umatilla Russet', 'Atlantic', 'FL-1879', 'FL-1867', and 'FL-1833', were exposed for a week to BLTVA-infected beet leafhoppers. After exposure, the plants were maintained outdoors in large cages and then tested for BLTVA by using polymerase chain reaction after 6 to 7 wk. The leafhoppers transmitted BLTVA to seven of the eight exposed potato cultivars. Sixty-four percent of the exposed plants tested positive for the phytoplasma. In addition, 81% of the BLTVA-infected potato plants developed distinct potato purple top disease symptoms. Beet leafhoppers also transmitted BLTVA to beets and several weeds, including groundsel, Senecio vulgaris L.; shepherd's purse, Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medik); kochia, Kochia scoparia (L.) Schrad; and Russian thistle, Salsola kali L. This is the first report of transmission of BLTVA to potatoes, beets, and the above-mentioned four weed species. Results of the current study prove that the beet leafhopper is a vector of the potato purple top disease.

The adult wasps feed on nectar or honeydew between mid-April and late June. Adults may contact pesticides when landing on foliage or when females hunt for grubs in the soil. The lethal effect of nursery, turf, and landscape pesticides was determined by exposing wasps to treated foliage in the laboratory. Pesticides tested at labeled rates were the insecticides bifenthrin, carbaryl, chlorpyrifos, halofenozide, and imidacloprid; the herbicides oryzalin, pendimethalin, and a combination product with 2,4-D, dicamba, and mecoprop (multiherbicide); and the fungicides chlorothalonil and thiophanate-methyl. During 2001 and 2002, male and female T. vernalis were exposed to pesticides by using turf cores. For both years, bifenthrin, chlorpyrifos, and imidacloprid treatments lowered adult survival relative to the control, but halofenozide had minimal effect on mortality of males and females. More males than females died after exposure to carbaryl treatments. Survival of females was not reduced by exposure to herbicides or fungicides. Females were apparently more tolerant of pesticides than males. Mortality of males in response to herbicides and fungicides was more variable than for females; in 2002 trials, male mortality was higher after exposure to multiherbicide, oryzalin, pendimethalin, and thiophanate-methyl than the control. The fungicide chlorothalonil did not increase mortality of males or females in either year. Sublethal effects were not evaluated. The study indicates the choice of pesticide may be important for conserving T. vernalis in nursery, landscape, and turf settings.

These include two of the three Min proteins, MinD and MinE, encoded by the min operon in bacteria. Noticeably absent from annotated sequences from higher plants is a MinC homologue. A higher plant functional MinC homologue that would interfere with FtsZ polymerization, has yet to be identified. We sought to determine whether expression of the bacterial MinC in higher plants could affect chloroplast division. The Escherichia coli minC (EcMinC) gene was isolated and inserted behind the Arabidopsis thaliana RbcS transit peptide sequence for chloroplast targeting. This TP-EcMinC gene driven by the CaMV 35S super(2) constitutive promoter was then transformed into tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.). Abnormally large chloroplasts were observed in the transgenic plants suggesting that overexpression of the E. coli MinC perturbed higher plant chloroplast division.

Significant feeding reductions were noted for transgenic plants expressing both resistance proteins as compared to wild-type plants for both H. zea and L. serricorne. Significant increases in mortality were also noted for those insects fed on the transgenic cross as compared to wild-type plants in some cases. Levels of both peroxidase and maize RIP were significantly higher in transgenic as compared to wild-type plants (which did not produce maize RIP). The degree of feeding was significantly negatively correlated with the level of RIP or peroxidase individually.

To test this hypothesis, we produced tomato seedlings infected with a recombinant potato virus X (PVX), which produces WIN6, and tested its insecticidal properties on Colorado potato beetle [CPB; Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say)], which is a serious pest of tomatoes and other crops. The advantage of PVX is that plant material is ready for insect bioassay within 3-4 weeks of constructing the recombinant virus. Considering that production of transgenic tomato seedlings using Agrobacterium takes at least 6 months, this hastens the rate at which genes can be examined. Upon insect bioassay, only 47% CPB neonates feeding on leaves containing >0.3% w/w WIN6 developed to 2nd instar while 93% of controls reached 2nd instar. To our knowledge this is the first plant chitinase that retards development of an insect pest.

We asked whether the location of an ecotone separating grass-dominated and sparsely vegetated areas reflected only historical variation in degradation or was related to variation in inherent soil properties. We then asked whether changes in the cover and spatial organization of vegetated and bare patches assessed using repeat aerial photography reflected self-organizing dynamics unrelated to soil variation or the stable patterning of soil variation. We found that the present-day ecotone was related to a shift from more weakly to more strongly developed soils. Parts of the ecotone were stable over a 60-year period, but shifts between bare and vegetated states, as well as persistently vegetated and bare states, occurred largely in small (<40 m super(2)) patches throughout the study area. The probability that patches were presently vegetated or bare, as well as the probability that vegetation persisted and/or established over the 60-year period, was negatively related to surface calcium carbonate and positively related to subsurface clay content. Thus, only a fraction of the landscape was susceptible to vegetation change, and the sparsely vegetated area probably featured a higher frequency of susceptible soil patches. Patch dynamics and self-organizing processes can be constrained by subtle (and often unrecognized) soil heterogeneity.

Plant vitrification solution 2 (PVS2), a commonly selected cryoprotectant, can be lethal with extended exposure times. To determine potentially toxic combinations, we have exposed mint shoot tips to one-, two-, three-, and four-component solutions of PVS2 chemicals (30% glycerol, 15% ethylene glycol, 15% dimethyl sulfoxide, and 0.4M sucrose) at 0 and 22 super(o)C. Overall, solution exposures at 22 super(o)C were more damaging than exposures at 0 super(o)C. Solutions with glycerol, particularly in combination with ethylene glycol and dimethyl sulfoxide, were also damaging. Cryoprotectant solutions PGluD (10% PEG8000, 10% glucose, and 10% dimethyl sulfoxide) and PVS3 (50% glycerol, 50% sucrose) were less damaging than PVS2 at 22 super(o)C. When plant cryoprotectants are characterized on a toxicological and biophysical basis, less damaging cryoprotectant solutions could be developed.

However, the cost of cellulase enzymes to saccharify cellulose to glucose is a major hindrance. As an alternative, a novel process to obtain industrially important cellulose acetate from these by-products after removing hemicellulosic sugars was developed. Rice-straw, wheat hull and corn fiber were treated with dilute acid at a moderate temperature to hydrolyze the hemicellulose to monomeric sugars that can be fermented to ethanol. The cellulose was then treated with acetic anhydride and catalytic amount of sulfuric acid to make cellulose acetate. The production of cellulose acetate was confirmed by NMR analysis. The pretreatment used to hydrolyze the hemicellulose was also useful for cellulose acetate production. Without the pretreatment cellulose acetate conversions from wheat straw, corn fiber, and rice hulls were 0.5, 1.8 and 13.5, respectively. After pretreatment the conversion rate increased to about 25wt% for all three agricultural residues used.

We predicted woodrat density to be high, moderate, and low in mature mixed-conifer forests, young mixed-conifer forests, and open ponderosa pine forests, respectively. We livetrapped on 8 8 grids (280 m) over an 8-day period each autumn for 4 years to obtain Huggins mark-recapture estimates of woodrat density. We captured woodrats 617 times and marked 193 individual woodrats in 12 sample stands during 42,165 trap nights. The sex ratio of captures was 62% female and 38% male. Adults made up 79% of captures. Woodrat density averaged 0.49 animals/ha among all cover types and years; woodrat density did not differ among types. Regardless of cover type, stands fell into 4 woodrat-density groups, with densities ranging from 0.13 to 0.93 woodrats/ha. Classification tree analysis revealed that woodrat-density groups could be predicted well (proportional reduction in error = 0.73 to 0.89) by the type and amount of cover provided by large snags, mistletoe brooms, and soft downed logs. Over the 4-year period, woodrat density ranged from 0.28 animals/ha to 0.87 animals/ha, increasing each year at a rate of lambda = 1.8 consistently among cover types. A moderate (r = 0.55) density-dependent response in per capita rate of increase was detected. The apparent annual survival rate was a low 0.14. Management to reduce woody fuels and to restore low-intensity high-frequency fire regimes in ponderosa pine and dry Douglas-fir forest likely will reduce bushy-tailed woodrat populations unless prescriptions can mitigate the loss of snag, mistletoe, and downed log cover.

Multiple-funnel traps baited with (-)- alpha -pinene (released at about 2 g/d at 25-28 degree C) were attractive to the following Cerambycidae: Acanthocinus nodosus, A. obsoletus, Arhopalus rusticus nubilus, Asemum striatum, Monochamus titillator, Prionus pocularis, Xylotrechus integer, and X. sagittatus sagittatus. Buprestis lineata (Buprestidae), Alaus myops (Elateridae), and Hylobius pales and Pachylobius picivorus (Curculionidae) were also attracted to traps baited with (-)- alpha -pinene. In many locations, ethanol synergized attraction of the cerambycids Acanthocinus nodosus, A. obsoletus, Arhopalus r. nubilus, Monochamus titillator, and Xylotrechus s. sagittatus (but not Asemum striatum, Prionus pocularis, or Xylotrechus integer) to traps baited with (-)- alpha -pinene. Similarly, attraction of Alaus myops, Hylobius pales, and Pachylobius picivorus (but not Buprestis lineata) to traps baited with (-)- alpha -pinene was synergized by ethanol. These results provide support for the use of traps baited with ethanol and (-)- alpha -pinene to detect and monitor common large wood-boring beetles from the southeastern region of the USA at ports-of-entry in other countries, as well as forested areas in the USA.

Some commonly used materials for porous plates may adsorb soil solution constituents such as phosphorus (P). An alternative to using a porous plate is to use a membrane filter with a known pore size and bubble point. The objective of this study was to evaluate the utility of polyethersulfone membranes (pore size 0.45mm and bubble point >200kPa) to extract soil solution from in situ soils and intact soil columns for phosphate analysis. In situ soil solution samplers were constructed from modified reusable polysulfone membrane filter holders equipped with polyethersulfone membranes (47mm diameter). A -10kPa vacuum was maintained in the samplers, which enabled soil solution collection at soil water potentials of 0 to -4kPa in loamy sand, 0 to -10kPa in sandy loam, and 0 to -12kPa in sandy clay loam soils. In a laboratory study, soil solution samplers continued to hold a vacuum to -77kPa soil water potential. Soil solution samplers were further evaluated in a field study at 45-, 90-, and 135-cm depths in two soils. Samplers operated with relatively few difficulties for the first 12 months of field evaluation. Membranes apparently dried during periods of low soil water potential but increases in soil moisture were sufficient to rewet the membrane. Sampler failures in the field increased during 13-18 months because aged vacuum tubing and root interferences with samplers at 45cm. Improvements in sampler design may improve the durability for implementation in long-term field experiments. Membrane filters worked near flawlessly to maintain unsaturated conditions in intact soil columns. The filter units facilitated easy collection of soil water from the intact soil columns without altering the chemical composition of the percolate.

Using radiotelemetry and GIS analyses we examined the species' home range size and habitat use in the Monongahela National Forest, Kumbrabow State Forest and the MeadWestvaco Ecosystem Research Forest in West Virginia during the summers of 2000-2003. The mean home range sizes of male and female squirrels were 54.2 and 15.3 ha, respectively, based on the adaptive kernel method. Euclidean distance analysis indicated the squirrels used spruce, mixed spruce-northern hardwood, and open habitats more than was available across the landscape. Selection of spruce and mixed spruce-northern hardwood habitats indicates that forest management activities designed to restore and increase these types in the central Appalachian landscape are required to conserve and increase this Vulnerable species.

Differences between strains regarding toxin gene composition and toxin production partly explain why some strains cause radically different diseases than others. However, they do not provide a complete explanation. The purpose of this study was to determine if there is a phylogenetic component that explains the variance in C perfringens strain virulence by assessing patterns of genetic polymorphism in genes (colA gyrA,plc,pfoS, and rplL) that form part of the core genome in 248 type A strains. We found that purifying selection plays a central role in shaping the patterns of nucleotide substitution and polymorphism in both housekeeping and virulence genes. In contrast, recombination was found to be a significant factor only for the virulence genes plc and colA and the housekeeping gene gyrA. Finally, we found that the strains grouped into five distinct evolutionary lineages that show evidence of host adaptation and the early stages of speciation. The discovery of these previously unknown lineages and their association with distinct disease presentations carries important implications for human and veterinary clostridial disease epidemiology and provides important insights into the pathways through which virulence has evolved in C. perfringens.

For more than 70 years, fanners and researchers have used various methods of subsoiling to reduce runoff and erosion and to improve infiltration and soil moisture storage. The practice and equipment have evolved from chiseling continuous open channels across hillslopes to the rotary subsoiler that pits the soil. Farmers often subsoil wheat stubble after harvest, but do not employ this practice on newly planted winter wheat fields. These fields are especially vulnerable to erosion because of meager residue cover after a year of fallow. A 6-year field study was conducted in eastern Washington to determine the effect of rotary subsoiling in newly planted winter wheat on over-winter water storage, erosion, infiltration, and grain yield. There were two treatments, rotary subsoiling and control. The rotary subsoiler created one 40 cm-deep pit with 4 L capacity every 0.7 m super(2). Natural precipitation did not cause rill erosion in either treatment because of mild winters during the study period. Net change in water stored over winter was significantly (P < 0.05) improved with rotary subsoiling compared to the control in 2 of 6 years. Grain yield was not affected by treatments in any year or when averaged over years. In 2003, we simulated rainfall for approximately 3 h at a rate of 18 mm/h on both subsoiled and control plots to determine runoff and erosion responses on frozen soils. Rotary subsoiling reduced runoff (P < 0.01) by 38%. Rotary subsoiling also significantly reduced erosion (P < 0.01) during the 20-45 min period after runoff had begun. The total quantities of eroded soils were 1.3 and 3.4 Mg/ha for the subsoiled and control treatments, respectively, with inter-rill the dominant erosion process. The average infiltration rate for the control treatment (3.3 mm/h) was half of the rate for the subsoiled treatment (6.6 mm/h), at the end of the 3 h simulation. Rotary subsoiling of newly-planted winter wheat can increase soil moisture stored over-winter and reduce runoff and soil loss on frozen soils, but the benefit of this practice for increasing grain yield has not been proven.

Two morphologically identical strains, rice strain (R-strain) and corn strain (C-strain), exist that differ physiologically and behaviorally and can be identified by mitochondrial haplotyping. Recent studies of overwintering populations in Florida indicate that the mitochondrial lineage associated with the R-strain itself consists of two genetically distinct subgroups, with one having molecular markers consistent with interstrain hybridization between R-strain females and C-strain males. To test this possibility and examine the ramifications of interstrain mating on population behavior and strain fidelity, larvae and adult males were tested for genetic marker combinations representative of the host strains and potential hybrids. These studies showed a sexually dimorphic distribution pattern for a sex-linked marker that is a predicted result of interstrain mating. Despite evidence of substantial interbreeding in the overwintering sites, both FR and the strain-diagnostic mitochondrial markers still showed the plant host and habitat biases associated with the host strains, indicating that strain integrity was largely maintained. However, there is evidence that the two R-strain subpopulations differ in habitat distribution in a manner suggestive of the 'hybrid' genotype being less specific in its plant host preference. The existence of a genetically distinct hybrid subpopulation must be taken into account when evaluating fall armyworm population dynamics and infestation patterns in overwintering areas.

Nematode virulence in S. pictipes was compared with virulence in two known susceptible hosts, Galleria mellonella L. and Tenebrio molitor L. In S. pictipes, the steinernematids were more virulent than the heterorhabditids, the virulence of S. carpocapsae was greater than S. riobrave, with S. feltiae being intermediate between the two, and no differences in virulence were detected among the heterorhabditids. Each nematode exhibited similar or greater virulence to S. pictipes than to T. molitor, and the steinernematids' virulence to S. pictipes was greater or similar to H. bacteriophora or H. marelatus virulence in G. mellonella. A quadratic dose-response relationship was detected between S. carpocapsae and S. pictipes, and an LC sub(50) was estimated to be 7.99. Comparisons of steinernematid reproductive potential per host, or per milligram host, generally indicated the highest production in G. mellonella; production in S. pictipes was similar or greater than in T. molitor. In S. pictipes, no differences in reproduction were detected among nematode species. Based on our findings and other studies on related insect species, we conclude that the prospects for controlling S. pictipes with entomopathogenic nematodes are promising (particularly with S. carpocapsae and S. feltiae), and field testing is warranted.

M. raptor, S.cameroni, and S. endius readily attacked and produced progeny on all five host species, with substantially lower production from S. bullata than from the muscid hosts. Rates of host attacks by S. nigroaenea and S. gemina were similar on house fly, stable fly, and black dump fly hosts, with lower rates on horn fly; almost no progeny were produced by S. nigroaenea on S. bullata hosts. D. himalayanus, a large-bodied chalcidid parasitoid, had highest rates of host attacks and progeny production on S. bullata and H. aenescens, followed by stable fly and house fly hosts; very few progeny were produced by this species on horn fly hosts. Overall differences among different geographic strains of parasitoids (from Russia, Kazkhstan, and Florida) were generally small, although the Florida strain of M. raptor was superior to the two Eurasian strains.

We examined how soil potassium (K) deficiency affects soybean aphid population at both regional and field level scales. First, we measured soil and leaf nutrient levels and monitored soybean aphid populations in 34 production soybean fields throughout Wisconsin. A principle component analysis (PCA) was used to examine the relationship between soil and leaf nutrients and soybean aphid population growth. Results showed that aphid population growth rate was negatively correlated with soil K and P and leaf K, N, P, and S, whereas peak aphid densities were positively correlated with the same suite of soil and leaf nutrients. In a manipulative field experiment, we established low, medium, and high K fertility soybean plots and determined life table parameters of soybean aphids. Aphids developing within clip-cages showed a significantly greater intrinsic rate of population increase and net reproductive rate in the low K treatments in comparison with the medium and high K treatments. In these same plots, naturally colonizing populations of soybean aphids also had significantly higher peak abundance and rate of population increase in the low K treatment compared with medium and high K treatments. In general, these findings indicate that soil K availability and leaf K levels affect plant quality and may play an important role in soybean aphid population dynamics.

Biocomplexity includes species composition, the absolute and relative abundances of those species, and their arrangement in space (for example, trees and shrubs of various species, sizes, vigor, and decay states). Key to high biocomplexity is patchiness at the appropriate spatial scale (for example, 0.1 to 0.5 ha). Passive management (benign neglect) does not necessarily remedy whatever degradation might have occurred under past management or neglect (for example, lack of biological legacies, artificial homogeneity, loss of biodiversity, missing keystone species, presence of diseases, or increased vulnerability to disturbance). Furthermore, not all management is equal. Purposefully managing processes of forest development and landscape dynamics is more likely to be successful in maintaining ecosystem and landscape function (and adaptiveness) than just providing select structural elements in stands and select structural stages in landscapes, as is often suggested for conservation. Deliberate simplification of ecosystems (for example, even-aged, single-species plantations harvested every 15 to 40 y to maximize wood production) runs counter to conservation, even if rotations are extended slightly and conventional thinning is applied. Recent experiments support the importance of biocomplexity to soil organisms, vascular plants, fungi, invertebrates, birds, small mammals, and vertebrate predators. These studies suggest that various techniques used purposefully over time are more likely to be successful than any 1-time intervention, passive management, or traditional timber management. Biocomplexity is promoted by variable-retention harvest systems, planting and precommercial thinning for species diversity, variable-density thinning to create spatial heterogeneity and foster species diversity, managing decadence processes to provide cavity trees and coarse woody debris, and long to indefinite rotations. At the landscape scale, passive management (reserves and riparian corridors) that does not take into account restoration needs may be self-fulfilling prophecies of forest fragmentation and landscape dysfunction. Restoring landscape function entails restoring function to both 2nd growth and riparian areas. Intentional (integrated, holistic, and collaborative) systems management seems to offer the best hope for meeting diverse objectives for forests, including conservation of biodiversity, a sustained yield of forest products, and economic, social, and environmental sustainability.

Maturity group IV and V soybeans were planted on three planting dates in 2003 and 2004. Planting dates were late March-early April, late April-early May, and late May-early June. Plots were sampled weekly with a standard 38.1-cm-diameter sweep net. Planting date and maturity group each had a significant effect on stink bug populations. In general, the earliest planting date had the lowest densities of stink bugs, whereas the latest planting date had the highest densities of stink bugs. Over the 2-yr period, cumulative numbers of stink bugs (SE) ranged from 17.9 (6.25) per 25 sweeps for the first planting to 190.9 (20.03) per 25 sweeps for the third planting date when averaged across maturity groups. Additionally, stink bug populations were generally lower on maturity group IV soybeans than on maturity group V soybeans. Cumulative numbers of stink bugs on maturity group IV soybeans averaged 52.4 (26.23) and 25.2 (6.93) in 2003 and 2004, respectively. On maturity group V soybeans, cumulative numbers of stink bugs averaged 96.9 (28.05) and 85.7 (40.84) in 2003 and 2004, respectively. These data provide valuable information about the population dynamics of stink bugs and indicate that early plantings of maturity group IV soybeans in the mid-South will escape heavy stink bug densities.

During the scoping phase of this Initiative, we asked a broad cross-section of people whose work involves managing for biodiversity, from state and federal agencies to private forestry companies and environmental groups, what their priority needs, challenges, and concerns were for the region's biodiversity conservation. We report here the results of our scoping phase and discuss how we intend to address the issues raised. The main biodiversity management challenges included a lack of a common definition of biodiversity, lack of standardized policy to implement biodiversity management objectives, uncertainty about disturbance effects, lack of a monitoring framework, conflicting social and economic values, and difficulty in finding relevant data and information. The products most frequently requested included a central clearinghouse for biodiversity information and resources, various information products, quantification of social and economic values of biodiversity, monitoring guidance, and computer models. By including the viewpoints of diverse clients and emphasizing collaboration, the Biodiversity Initiative supports informed natural resource management for the long-term sustainability of a wide range of resources.

Inca was direct seeded into plots previously cropped with spring barley at the Washington State University Dryland Research Station at Lind, WA. Before planting, the plots received 80 mm of water by sprinkler irrigation, and 2 weeks later, volunteer barley was killed with Paraquat contact herbicide. In late September, 3 weeks after planting, canola seedlings exhibited postemergence damping-off and lesions on the hypocotyls, resulting in significant stand reductions. Rhizoctonia solani was isolated from infected hypocotyls using water agar amended with chloramphenicol (100 mu g/ml). Cultures on potato dextrose agar produced dark brown colonies with dark brown microsclerotia. Three isolates were grown on autoclaved oat seed for 3 weeks in 1-liter Erlenmeyer flasks at 22 degree C, and colonized seed was air dried in a laminar flow hood, ground in a coffee grinder, and added to a Thatuna silt loam at 1% (w/w). The infested soil was placed into 4- x 20.5-cm plastic tubes and planted with five canola seeds per tube, five tubes per isolate. In the control treatment, soil was not infested. Plants were grown in a temperature-controlled room in a greenhouse at 16 degree C, 12-h light/dark. Isolates caused pre- and postemergence damping-off after 1 week, and the surviving seedlings had significantly less plant height and dry weight. Isolates were identified as AG 2-1 by pairing cultures with AG 8, 2-1, and 10 on agar-coated slides. Selected isolates were also identified as AG 2-1 by sequencing of the ITS 1 and 2 regions of the rDNA and matching them to sequences in GenBank. On a farm north of Pullman, WA in 2004, R. solani was isolated from soil in spring and winter wheat fields using a toothpick baiting method. R. solani was found primarily from sites previously cropped with winter and spring canola. These isolates were identified as AG 2-1 and five isolates were tested in the greenhouse, as described above, on canola (cv. Inca), lentil (Lens culinaris Medik. cv. Merrit), wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Madsen), barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Baronesse), pea (Pisum sativum L. cv. Stirling), and chickpea (Cicer arietinum L. cv. Sierra). Three of five isolates significantly reduced emergence of canola, and all isolates significantly reduced dry weight of canola seedlings and caused lesions on hypocotyls. None of the isolates reduced emergence of the other crops. All isolates reduced the dry weight of pea and three isolates reduced plant height. None of the isolates reduced the dry weight of lentil, chickpea, wheat, or barley. One of the isolates was also tested on Arabidopsis thaliana and found to be pathogenic. R. solani AG 2-1 has been reported as an important pathogen on canola in Canada and Australia, but has not been reported from the Pacific Northwest of the United States. R. solani AG 2-1 is also pathogenic on rapeseed, mustard, and subterranean clover and has been isolated from wheat, sugar beets, and potato. Canola is a minor rotation crop in cereal-based cropping systems in eastern Washington (1,600 ha in 2005), but there is increasing interest in this oilseed crop for biodiesel production. However, R. solani AG 2-1 may reduce stands and yield of canola.

The roots of seven plants exhibiting moderate to severe symptoms characteristic of this disease were tested using double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with anti-BNYVV antiserum from rabbits. Of these, only two roots exhibiting the mildest symptoms tested positive for BNYVV (all roots tested negative for the presence of the related Beet soilborne mosaic virus (BSBMV). 'Hairy' lateral roots characteristic of the disease were combined from the remaining five roots, ground in phosphate buffer, and the supernatant from the suspension was mechanically applied to leaves of Chenopodium quinoa in an effort to isolate an infectious agent. Five days postinoculation (dpi), yellow lesions with necrotic centers were visible on inoculated leaves, well in advance of those typically observed for BNYVV or BSBMV. Lesions exhibiting a similar rate of development on C. quinoa subsequently were induced from extracts of root vascular tissue prepared from four of seven additional beet roots tested from this location. Transfer of the infection from the C. quinoa lesions to 32 healthy C. quinoa and 10 sugar beet plants (hybrid ACH9369; American Crystal Sugar Co., Moorhead MN) resulted in 100% infection. Inoculated leaves of C. quinoa exhibited a high density of necrotic local lesions within 3 dpi, whereas inoculated leaves of sugar beet exhibited pinpoint, necrotic to diffuse, chlorotic local lesions evident by 5 dpi. Electron microscopic examination of fixed, ultra-thin sections of symptomatic C. quinoa leaf tissue revealed aggregates of virus-like particles of icosahedral symmetry within the cell cytoplasm. Following a virus minipreparation procedure, nucleic acid extracted from the partially purified virus was found to be single-stranded RNA by ribonuclease digestion and alone was infectious when inoculated to C. quinoa leaves. The apparently monopartite RNA genome was 3.5 kb long and a candidate for the single coat protein (CP) had a mass of similar to 25 kDa. The sole reference set found in the literature for a virus naturally occurring on sugar beet with similar characteristics was that for Beet black scorch virus (BBSV), a virus recently accepted by the ICTV into the genus Necrovirus within the family Tombusviridae. Prior to this communication, BBSV has only been reported in China where it was first documented affecting sugar beet in the late 1980s. Using the published sequence of BBSV (Genbank Accession No. AY626780), DNA primers directed to the 3' half of the BBSV genome were used in reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction to produce an amplicon from the unknown virus. Sequencing the amplicon revealed 88.8% nucleotide sequence identity to the BBSV CP gene and 97% amino acid sequence identity to the predicted CP gene product. Combined, the nucleotide sequence and physical characteristics confirm the presence of BBSV in a U.S. sugarbeet field for the first time. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the occurrence of BBSV outside of China.

DC. (Russian knapweed [RK]) collected at the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge in Montana. Symptoms included circular to subcircular brown spots, 1 to 18 mm in diameter, with indefinite margins that sometimes had a thin, purple-to-rose border. Leaves placed in moist chambers developed conidiophores and conidia within 48 h. Stroma were subcuticular, pale yellowish; conidiophores were hyaline, zero to two septate, thin walled, smooth, unbranched, 31 to 91 x 2.8 to 5.6 mu m: andconidia were solitary or in secondary short chains, ovoid to subclavate. 13 to 52 x 3.2 to 6.8 mu m, zero to three septate, hyaline, and thin walled. Conidial scars and hyla were umbronate, somewhat thickened, refractive, and not darkened. In three tests, 50 RK plants spray inoculated with 10 super(6) conidia/ml developed symptoms similar to those on the sample and the fungus was reisolated each time. Fungal identification, Cercosporella acroptili (Bremer) U. Braun, was based on morphology and comparisons with the type specimen and a Turkish isolate (FDWSRU 98-001). ITS 1 and 2 sequences (GenBank Accession No. 779164) also were identical to a known isolate of C. acroptili. A specimen (BPI No. 871029) has been submitted to the USDA-ARS-SBML.

Since little soybean rust resistance is known, and resistance is often difficult to detect or quantitate, we initiated a project to develop a better, more quantitative, method. The methodology determined the average numbers and diameters of uredinia in lesions that developed on leaves of inoculated plants 14 days after inoculation. It was used to compare virulence of P. pachyrhizi isolates from Asia and Australia and P. meibomiae from Puerto Rico and Brazil, collected as many as 30 years earlier, with isolates of P. pachyrhizi recently collected from Africa or South America. Susceptible reactions to P. pachyrhizi resulted in tan-colored lesions containing 1 to 14 uredinia varying greatly in size within individual lesions. In contrast, on these same genotypes at the same time of year, resistance to other P. pachyrhizi isolates was typified by 0 to 6 small uredinia in reddish-brown to dark-brown lesions. Using appropriate rust resistant and rust susceptible genotypes as standards, examination of uredinia 14 days after inoculation allowed quantitative comparisons of sporulation capacities, one measure of susceptibility or resistance to soybean rust. The study verified the presence and ability to detect all known major genes for resistance to soybean rust in the original sources of resistance. It demonstrated that soybean lines derived from the original PI sources, and presumed to possess the resistance genes, in actuality may lack the gene or express an intermediate reaction to the rust pathogen. We suggest that a determination of numbers and sizes of uredinia will detect both major gene and partial resistance to soybean rust.

Heterophils produce cytokines and modulate acute protection against Salmonella in neonatal poultry. We hypothesized that heterophils from S. enteritidis-resistant chickens produce an up-regulated proinflammatory cytokine/chemokine response compared with S. enteritidis-susceptible chickens. In this study, heterophils were isolated 1,14, and 28 days post-hatch, treated with RPMI or phagocytic agonists, and the cytokine/chemokine mRNA expression assessed using quantitative real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. At all time-points, heterophils from S. enteritidis-resistant chickens (line A) had higher levels of pro-inflammatory cytokine/chemokine mRNA expression upon stimulation compared with heterophils from S. enteritidis-susceptible chickens (line B). Furthermore, heterophils from line A chickens had decreased mRNA expression of transforming growth factor- beta 4, an anti-inflammatory cytokine, compared with line B. These data indicate a relationship between cytokine/chemokine mRNA expression by heterophils and determining overall immune competence. Therefore, heterophil functional efficiency, accompanied by evaluating cytokine/chemokines produced by heterophils, may be useful biomarkers for breeders to consider when developing new immunocompetent lines.

Colonization by Fusarium and Alternaria spp. was assessed for near-isogenic lines differing in wound response (purple or tan) and pericarp color (red or white) in field-grown grain and in greenhouse-grown plants. Seeds were screened on a semi-selective medium for Alternaria and Fusarium. Significantly fewer fungal colonies were obtained from tan plants with white seed, and fewer numbers of Alternaria colonies were obtained from white seed, regardless of plant color, from an irrigated field, while there were no differences in fungal composition of seeds grown at a nonirrigated field. Screening of seed from the nonirrigated field on Fusarium semi-selective medium yielded fewer Fusarium isolations from seed grown on purple plants compared with seed from tan plants. When inoculated with Alternaria sp. and F. moniliforme, there can be no differences in lesion lengths on tan/white plants when compared with purple/red plants in most assays; in one assay, tan/white plants had smaller lesion lengths following inoculation with F. moniliforme. These results suggest that plants with white seeds were as resistant as plants with the red pericarp trait to colonization by Alternaria and Fusarium spp. However, the results also suggest that under appropriate environmental conditions seed from tan plants may be more susceptible to Fusarium spp. than seed from purple plants.

Four genetically distinct plants (viz., MF22, MF48, MF125, and MF132) that have been maintained clonally for 5 years from a Lolium perenne x L. multiflorum hybrid population established in the United States exhibited either no symptoms or mild chlorotic flecking that coalesced to form chlorotic to necrotic streaking on the leaves. All four clonal plants tested positive using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) with the Potexvirus group PCR test (Agdia, Inc., Elkhart, IN), whereas all clones but MF48 tested positive using the Potyvirus group PCR test (Agdia, Inc.). No amplicons were obtained when the same plants were tested for tobamovirus, carlavirus, and closterovirus using appropriate virus group-specific primers. Cloning and sequencing of the potexviral amplicons revealed very high sequence identity with the comparable region of LLV-UK (GenBank Accession No. DQ333886), whereas those of the potyviral amplicons (GenBank Accession Nos. DQ355837 and DQ355838) were nearly identical with the comparable region of Ryegrass mosaic virus (RGMV), a rymovirus first reported from the United States in 1957 (1). Using indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), extracts from all four Lolium clonal propagations tested positive for LLV using the antiserum raised to LLV-Germany (courtesy of Dr. Huth), whereas the potyvirus-positive results from RT-PCR of the three clones were confirmed using indirect ELISA with the broad spectrum potyvirus monoclonal antibody, PTY-1. LLV from singly or dually infected Lolium clones was transmitted to Nicotiana benthamiana Domin, but not to N. tabacum L. by mechanical inoculation. LLV was purified from infected N. benthamiana. Similar sized flexuous rods were observed using electron microscopy in leaf dip samples from Lolium clones and aliquots of the virions purified from N. benthamiana.

This obligate parasite can be propagated only in planta, which necessitates development of a method for preserving cultures for longer periods of time for routine biological studies and shipment to other laboratories. Normally, sporangia embedded within the plant tissue release zoospores when submersed in water at temperatures above freezing. To examine what chemicals might inhibit zoospore release, infected tissue was exposed to different suspensions of fungicides. Cycloheximide and benomyl completely inhibited zoospore release or immediately induced encystment from tissue stored in these two chemicals, respectively. A few zoospores were released in suspensions of iprodione and propionic acid but were not motile. However, when tissue stored in iprodione or propionic acid was transferred to fresh distilled water, abundant active zoospores were released. Freezing the infected tissue at different temperatures in different cryoprotectants also affected the release of motile zoospores. Infected C. solstitialis tissue was immersed in water, water plus iprodione, methanol, ethylene glycol, dimethyl sulfoxide, glycerol, skim milk, trehalose, or sucrose and subjected to different temperatures for various periods of time. Some treatments protected the viability of the fungus for a shorter period of time whereas other treatments completely inhibited release. The best results were obtained when infected tissue was stored at -2 degree C in 0.5 M sucrose where active zoospores were released after 12 weeks of storage. Overall, results obtained from this study demonstrate a technique for long-term storage of S. solstitiale.

The expense of chemical control and the vast area of invasion make this weed an appropriate target for classical biological control. Observations of a field site in southern France revealed small orange galls on the leaves of yellow starthistle seedlings caused by the fungus Synchytrium solstitiale. Inoculation of yellow starthistle seedlings with a suspension of zoospores released from infected tissue resulted in infection. Ten days after inoculation, typical orange galls appeared on the exposed tissue. Preliminary host range testing showed up to 100% infection of C. solstitialis seedlings from both France and the United States and infection of Carthamus tinctorius, Centaurea americana, C. diffusa, C. rothrockii, C. squarrosa, and Helianthus annuus seedlings. No symptoms were observed on seedlings of Centaurea calcitrapa, C. maculosa, C. sulfurea, Cirsium californica, C. occidentale, Cynera cardunculus, and Taraxacum officinale. Zoospores were released in a pH range between 4.45 and 8.25 and optimally at temperatures between 5 and 15 degree C.

Pers.), broadleaf signalgrass (Brachiaria platyphylla (L.) Beauv.), and yellow foxtail (Setaria glauca L.) are common volunteer grasses in bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.) pastures in the southeastern United States. Johnsongrass and broadleaf signalgrass are potential forages whereas yellow foxtail is a noxious weed. In 1999 and subsequent years, necrosis and dieback of leaves, stems, and roots, stunting, and plant death were observed on all three species in bermudagrass pastures in north Mississippi (3). Symptoms on Johnsongrass and yellow foxtail were most severe where bermudagrass exhibited severe symptoms of infection caused by dematiaceous hyphomycetes (2,3); symptoms on broadleaf signalgrass often occurred independently. Symptomatic leaf tissues from 15 to 33 plants of each species and stem and root tissues from 4 to 14 plants of Johnsongrass and yellow foxtail were surface disinfested, plated on water agar, and examined for sporulation after 5 to 10 days (2,3). Pathogens were identified by specific morphological features of spores and sporulation as on bermudagrass (3), and axenic cultures were established by spore transfers to cornmeal agar. Bipolaris cynodontis (Marig.) Shoemaker, Curvularia lunata (Wakk.) Boedijn, C. geniculata (Tracy & Earle) Boedijn, and Exserohilum rostratum (Drechs.) Leonard & Suggs were isolated from symptomatic leaves of all three grasses and frequently also observed on stems and roots. B. stenospila (Drechs.) Shoemaker was observed only on broadleaf signalgrass (19 of 33 plants) and B. spicifera (Banier) Subr. on Johnsongrass and yellow foxtail. Species most frequent on leaves (58 to 100%) were B. spicifera, C. lunata, and E. rostratum on johnsongrass and yellow foxtail and B. cynodontis, B. stenospila, and E. rostratum on broadleaf signalgrass. The three grasses were grown from seed in potting mix in the greenhouse (one plant per 375-cm super(3) container), and five replicates 31 to 60 days old were inoculated with a mixture of three isolates of each pathogen observed on them in two experiments. Conidia produced from infested wheat and oat grain were atomized onto foliage (1.2 to 4 x 10 super(4) conidia per ml, 20 ml per plant) as described (2). All pathogens incited similar necrotic lesions and streaks on the three grasses after 12 to 15 days, and B. stenospila also caused extensive golden yellow chlorosis on broadleaf signalgrass. All pathogens caused significant (P = 0.05) necrosis (means = 5 to 35% of foliage necrotic based on visual estimates, controls = 1 to 3%), and all were reisolated and grown in pure culture by spore transfers to cornmeal agar from surface-disinfested, symptomatic leaf tissue of each grass. When bermudagrass grown from seed was inoculated at similar spore concentrations, isolates of E. rostratum, B. cynodontis, and B. spicifera from two or all three grasses caused symptoms as severe as did isolates from bermudagrass. Results document new North American or worldwide records of occurrence and pathogenicity for B. cynodontis, C. geniculata, and C. lunata on all three grasses, B. stenospila and E. rostmtum on broadleaf signalgrass, and B. spicifera on johnsongrass and yellow foxtail (1). These volunteer grasses, bermudagrass, and the six fungi all appear to represent large, interacting complexes of multiple hosts and potentially cross-infecting pathogens.

Anabasine lacks the imine double bond of anabaseine; the two possible enantiomers of anabasine occur in N. glauca. A comparision of the relative potencies of S- and R-anabasine has not been previously reported. We separated the enantiomers of anabasine by reaction of the racemic N. glauca natural product with 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-l-alanine (Fmoc-l-Ala-OH) to give diastereomers, which were separated by preparative reversed phase HPLC. The S- and R-anabasine enantiomer fractions were then obtained by Edman degradation. A mouse bioassay was used to determine the relative lethalities of S- and R-enriched anabasine enantiomers. The intravenous LD sub(5) sub(0) of the (+)-R-anabasine rich fraction was 11+/-1.0 mg/kg and that of the (-)-S-anabasine-rich fraction was 16+/-1.0 mg/kg. The LD sub(5) sub(0) of anabaseine was 0.58+/-0.05 mg/kg. Anabaseine was significantly more toxic in the mouse bioassay than S-anabasine (27-fold) and R-anabasine (18-fold). The relative agonistic potencies of these three alkaloids on human fetal nicotinic neuromuscular receptors were of the same rank order: anabaseine >> R-anabasine > S-anabasine.

Methods and Results:Point mutations in the QRDR of gyrA from C. coli and C. jejuni isolates were identified by direct sequencing. All isolates (n = 14) with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) greater than or equal to 4 mu g ml super(-1) for CIP and greater than or equal to 32 mu g ml super(-1) for NAL possessed a missense mutation leading to substitution of Ile for Thr at codon 86. Three isolates with a missense mutation leading to a Thr86Ala substitution had MICs <4 mu g ml super(-1) for CIP and greater than or equal to 32 mu g ml super(-1) for NAL. Conclusions:These data confirm previous findings that Thr86Ile mutations confer resistance to both CIP and NAL. However, resistance to NAL alone was conferred by a single Thr86Ala mutation. Significance and Impact of the Study:Resistance to NAL alone arises independently from CIP resistance. In addition, the role of other previously described point mutations in quinolone resistance is discussed.

A 100-year effort to manage this disease was predicated in part on the premise that the pathogen utilizes only species of Ribes (Grossulariaceae) as alternate hosts on this continent. The current study presents the first conclusive demonstration that some species in the family Orobanchaceae (Pedicularis racemosa and Castilleja miniata) are functioning as alternate hosts in a natural ecosystem of North America. This finding has implications for improving our understanding of epidemiology, pathogen adaptation and host-pathogen interactions within white pine blister rust.

The proposed control system automates and enhances functions already performed by SRP operators, namely feedforward routing of scheduled demand changes, feedback control of downstream water levels, and flow control at check structures. Performance of the control system was tested with unsteady flow simulation. Test scenarios were defined by the operators for a 30 km, four-pool canal reach. The tests considered the effect of imperfect knowledge of check gate head-discharge relationships. The combined feedback-feedforward controller easily kept water level deviations close to the target when dealing with routine, scheduled flow changes. Those same routine changes, when unscheduled, were handled effectively by the feedback controller alone. The combined system had greater difficulty in dealing with large demand changes, especially if unscheduled. Because feedback flow changes are computed independently of feedforward changes, the feedback controller tends to counteract feedforward control actions. The effect is unimportant when dealing with routine flow changes but is more significant when dealing with large changes, especially in cases where the demand change cannot be fully anticipated.

Phylogenetic analysis of secY gene sequences resolved 10 genetically distinct lineages. The 10 lineages coincide with those delineated by phylogenetic analysis based on ribosomal protein (rp) gene sequences. However, greater genetic variability among the 10 lineages was revealed based on secY gene sequences. The distinct phylogenetic lineages can be readily identified through restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of secY gene sequences. ten subgroups were differentiated among the AY group phytoplasmas based on RFLP analysis of secY gene sequences. Phylogenetic analysis based on secY gene sequences in this study, and previous studies on the 16S rRNA gene, tuf gene, and rp gene sequences reinforced the notion that most subgroups identified by RFLP analysis of secY and rp gene sequences represent distinct phylogenetic lineages.

Within Staphylococcus aureus, virulence factor transcript synthesis is regulated by a number of two-component regulatory systems, the DNA binding protein SarA, and the SarA family of homologues. However, little is known about the factors that modulate mRNA stability or influence transcript degradation within the organism. As our entree to characterizing these processes, S. aureus GeneChips were used to simultaneously determine the mRNA half-lives of all transcripts produced during log-phase growth. It was found that the majority of log-phase transcripts (90%) have a short half-life (<5 min), whereas others are more stable, suggesting that cis- and/or trans-acting factors influence S. aureus mRNA stability. In support of this, it was found that two virulence factor transcripts, cna and spa, were stabilized in a sarA-dependent manner. These results were validated by complementation and real-time PCR and suggest that SarA may regulate target gene expression in a previously unrecognized manner by posttranscriptionally modulating mRNA turnover. Additionally, it was found that S. aureus produces a set of stable RNA molecules with no predicted open reading frame. Based on the importance of the S. aureus agr RNA molecule, RNAIII, and small stable RNA molecules within other pathogens, it is possible that these RNA molecules influence biological processes within the organism.

With the completion of the rice genome sequence, positional cloning in rice also took off, including the cloning of several quantitative trait loci. Positional cloning in cereals such as maize whose genomes are much larger than that of rice was considered near impossible because of the vast amounts of repetitive DNA. However, conservation of synteny across the cereal genomes, in combination with new maize resources, has now made positional cloning in maize feasible. In fact, a chromosomal walk is usually much faster than the more traditional method of gene isolation in maize by transposon tagging.

Strain improvement has been facilitated by recent completion of the P. stipitis genome. P. stipitis uses CUG to code for serine rather than leucine, as is the case for the universal genetic code thereby limiting the availability of heterologous drug resistance markers for transformation. Development of a modified selectable marker for resistance to bleomycin (Sh ble) and efficient excision of the marker after integration (loxP/Cre) should facilitate functional genomics and metabolic engineering in this yeast. The Sh ble marker did not code for an active protein in P. stipitis until four CUG codons were mutagenized to TTG, which is properly translated as leucine in yeasts that use the alternative yeast nuclear genetic code. The 18 CTG codons in Cre were mutagenized in a similar manner and the system was used to delete XYL2. The resulting xyl2 Delta mutant did not use xylose as a carbon source.

The announcer on the videotape verbally presented the text and questions that were read to respondents in the phone interview. There was no statistical difference between video and phone-booklet survey response rates or reasons for refusing to pay for the program. Median willingness to pay (WTP) for the prescribed burning program using the mail booklet-phone interview was $508 per household and $583 per household from the video survey. The confidence intervals for these two estimates overlap, indicating they are not statistically different. The videotape survey offers the potential for cost savings in large samples where phone interviews would become expensive, and for valuing public programs that are too complex to realistically display with still photos and figures.

Only physical abrasion (PA) and hot branding (HB) produced lasting alterations of epithelial architecture. Immersion challenge of PA or HB fish 10 super(8) cfu/ml virulent F. columnare at 29+/-2 super(o)C immediately after treatment resulted in death of most fish within the first 48 h. Immersion challenge 24 h after cutaneous injury resulted in 60% mortality with PA and 2% in HB. Cutaneous injury 48-72 h before challenge did not result in significant mortality. We quantified and modeled the median 96 h LD50 for PA and HB. The 96 h LD50 for abrasion (10 super(4) super(.) super(3) super(+)/- super(0) super(.) super(3) cfu/ml) was a log lower than for branded fish (10 super(5) super(.) super(0) super(+)/- super(0) super(.) super(4) cfu/ml). The LD50 for HB plus AS was 10 super(5) super(.) super(8) super(+)/- super(0) super(.) super(3) cfu/ml, a log higher than for HB fish without Stresscoat(TM), an artificial slime agent (AS). Hot branding produced more consistent infection in terms of 96 h LD50s. Induction of experimental columnaris was dependent on the length of time between injury and pathogen exposure (<4 h), size of area disrupted on the epidermis, and dose of bacteria. A significant reduction in mortality and delay in death were noted when abraded fish were treated with AS and immediately challenged, suggesting that columnaris disease may be minimized or prevented by protecting a wounded catfish with AS, thus confirming the relationship of pathogenesis of F. columnare entering a wound. unded catfish with AS, thus confirming the relationship of pathogenesis of F. columnare entering a wound.

This is the major hydrologic model used for flood forecasting at most of the 13 river forecasting centers throughout the United States. A physically based approach based on the nationally available State Soil Geographic Database (STATSGO) has been developed (Koren, V.I., Smith, M., Wang, D., Zhang, Z., 2000. Use of soil property data in the derivation of conceptual rainfall-runoff model parameters. Proceedings of the 15th Conference on Hydrology, AMS, Long Beach, CA, pp. 103-106; Koren, V., Smith, M., Duan, Q., 2003.

(Eds.), Calibration of Watershed Models, Water Science and Applications 6, AGU, pp. 239-254), leading to objective, spatially consistent parameter estimates. This paper shows that a better representation of basin physical properties and potential improvements in hydrologic simulation performance can be obtained by basing parameter estimates on a finer-scale database of soils data, the Soil Survey Geographic Database (SSURGO), combined with high- resolution land use/land cover data. Results also suggest that an intermediate level of improvement may be obtained by combining detailed land cover data with STATSGO to refine current parameter estimates. This latter finding is significant because the SSURGO data are not yet available for the entire country.

AN - 67763412; 15894421 AB - Research into dietary chemoprevention against lung carcinogenesis has been limited by the lack of appropriate animal models that closely mimic smoking-related human lung cancer. Ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) have been used to study the biologic activities of carotenoids against smoke-induced lung lesions, but this model has yet to be thoroughly established and validated. To determine the appropriateness of the ferret as a model for human lung cancer, we have performed a 6-month in vivo study in ferrets exposed to both tobacco smoke and a carcinogen (4-(N-methyl-N-nitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone, NNK) found in cigarette smoke. Results showed that six out 12 ferrets exposed to both NNK injection and cigarette smoke developed grossly identifiable lung tumors whereas none of nine ferrets from the sham treatment group developed any lung lesions. The histopathological types of these tumors (squamous cell carcinoma, adenosquamous carcinoma and adenocarcinoma) in ferret lungs are very similar to those in humans. In addition, 10 out of 12 ferrets exposed to both NNK and cigarette smoke developed preneoplastic lesions (squamous metaplasia, dysplasia, and atypical adenomatous hyperplasia) with complex growth patterns whereas the sham group did not show any of these lesions. Furthermore, the expression of proliferating cellular nuclear antigen increased markedly in both gross tumors and preneoplastic lesions in the lungs. In summary, the development of both preneoplastic lesions and gross lung tumors in ferrets provides an excellent and unique model for studying lung cancer chemoprevention with agents such as carotenoids, and for studying the molecular mechanism of carcinogenesis in the earlier stages of smoke-related lung cancer.

AN - 67758874; 16536629 AB - Fumonisins are polyketide-derived mycotoxins produced by the maize pathogen Fusarium verticillioides. Previous analyses identified naturally occurring variants of the fungus that are deficient in fumonisin C-10 hydroxylation or that do not produce any fumonisins. In the current study, gene deletion and genetic complementation analyses localized the C-10 hydroxylation deficiency to a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase gene in the fumonisin biosynthetic gene (FUM) cluster. Sequence analysis indicated that the hydroxylation deficiency resulted from a single nucleotide insertion that caused a frame shift in the coding region of the gene. Genetic complementation localized the fumonisin-nonproduction phenotype to the polyketide synthase gene in the FUM cluster, and sequence analysis indicated that the nonproduction phenotype resulted from a nucleotide substitution, which introduced a premature stop codon in the coding region. These results provide the first direct evidence that altered fumonisin production phenotypes of naturally occurring F. verticillioides variants can result from single point mutations in the FUM cluster.

AN - 67756249; 16536608 AB - The chlorinated fumigants chloropicrin (trichloronitromethane) and 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) are extensively used in agricultural production for the control of soilborne pests. The reaction of these two fumigants with hydrogen sulfide species (H2S and HS-) was examined in well-defined anoxic aqueous solutions. Chloropicrin underwent an extremely rapid redox reaction in the hydrogen sulfide solution. Transformation products indicated reductive dechlorination of chloropicrin by hydrogen sulfide species to produce dichloro- and chloronitromethane. The transformation of chloropicrin in hydrogen sulfide solution significantly increased with increasing pH, indicating that H2S is less reactive toward chloropicrin than HS- is. For both 1,3-D isomers, kinetics and transformation products analysis revealed that the reaction between 1,3-D and hydrogen sulfide species is an S(N)2 nucleophilic substitution process, in which the chlorine at C3 of 1,3-D is substituted by the sulfur nucleophile to form corresponding mercaptans. The 50% disappearance time (DT50) of 1,3-D decreased with increasing hydrogen sulfide species concentration at a constant pH. Transformation of 1,3-D was more rapid at high pH, suggesting that the reactivity of hydrogen sulfide species in the experimental system stems primarily from HS-. Because of the relatively low smell threshold values and potential environmental persistence of organic sulfur products yielded by the reaction of 1,3-D and HS-, the effects of reduced sulfide species should be considered in the development of alternative fumigation practices, especially in the integrated application of sulfur-containing fertilizers.

AN - 67695348; 15975632 AB - Each year U.S. foundries landfill several million tons of sand that can no longer be used to make metalcasting molds and cores. A possible use for these materials is as an ingredient in manufactured soils; however, potentially harmful metals and resin binders (used to make cores) may adversely impact the soil microbial community. In this study, the dehydrogenase activity (DHA) of soil amended with molding sand (clay-coated sand known as "green sand") or core sands at 10%, 30%, and 50% (dry wt.) was determined. The green sands were obtained from iron, aluminum, and brass foundries; the core sands were made with phenol-formaldehyde or furfuryl alcohol based resins. Overall, incremental additions of these sands resulted in a decrease in the DHA which lasted throughout the 12-week experimental period. A brass green sand, which contained high concentrations of Cu, Pb, and Zn, severely impacted the DHA. By week 12 no DHA was detected in the 30% and 50% treatments. In contrast, the DHA in soil amended with an aluminum green sand was 2.1 times higher (all blending ratios), on average, at week 4 and 1.4 times greater (30% and 50% treatments only) than the controls by week 12. In core sand-amended soil, the DHA results were similar to soils amended with aluminum and iron green sands. Increased activity in some treatments may be a result of the soil microorganisms utilizing the core resins as a carbon source. The DHA assay is a sensitive indicator of environmental stress caused by foundry sand constituents and may be useful to assess which foundry sands are suitable for beneficial use in the environment.

AN - 67710185; 16506812 AB - Gossypol is an allelochemical that occurs naturally throughout the cotton plant as an enantiomeric mixture. Gossypol and related terpenoids protect the plant from some insect herbivores. Cottonseed has a high protein content, but it is underutilized because (-)-gossypol, which is toxic to nonruminants, occurs in the seed along with (+)-gossypol. Commercial Upland cottons usually have an approximate 3:2 (+)- to (-)-gossypol ratio in the seed, but plants can be bred with <8% (-)-gossypol using accessions of Gossypium hirsutum var. marie galante as parents. We report the (+)- and (-)-gossypol ratios and the concentration of related terpenoids in the stems, leaves, and roots of four accessions of marie galante that show high, moderate, and near normal levels of (+)-gossypol in the seed; we compare these values to the commercial cultivar Stoneville 474, which has 62% (+)-gossypol in the seed. In the marie galante accessions 2452 and 2425 that have the highest levels of (+)-gossypol in the seed, the percent (+)-gossypol and the concentration of gossypol and the related terpenoids were significantly higher (P = 0.05) in the stems and leaves as compared to Stoneville 474.

13859270 AB - Manure waste from dairy farms has been used for methane production for decades, however, problems such as digester failure are routine. The problem has been investigated in small scale (1-2 L) digesters in the laboratory; however, very little scale-up to intermediate scales are available. We report production of methane in a 100-L digester and the results of an investigation into the effect of partial mixing induced by gas upflow/recirculation in the digester. The digester was operated for a period of about 70 d (with 16-d hydraulic retention time) with and without the mixing induced by gas recirculation through an internal draft tube. The results show a clear effect of mixing on digester operation. Without any mixing, the digester performance deteriorated within 30-50 d, whereas with mixing continuous production of methane was observed. This study demonstrates the importance of mixing and its critical role in design of large scale anaerobic digesters.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of folate and adequate Se (0.2 mg/kg) on methyl metabolism in colon and liver. Weanling, Fischer-344 rats (n=8/diet) were fed diets containing 0 or 0.2 mg selenium (as selenite)/kg and 0 or 2 mg folic acid/kg in a 22 design. After 70 d, plasma homocysteine was increased (p<0.0001) by folate deficiency; this increase was markedly, attenuated (p<0.0001) in rats fed the selenium-deficient diet compared to those fed 0.2 mg Se/kg. The activity of hepatic glycine N-methyltransferase (GNMT), an enzyme involved in the regulation of tissue S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH), was increased by folate deficiency (p<0.006) and decreased by selenium deprivation, (p<0.0003). Colon and liver SAH were highest (p<0.006) in rats fed deficient folate and adequate selenium. Although folate deficiency decreased liver SAM (p<0.001), it had no effect on colon SAM. Global DNA methylation was decreased (p<0.04) by selenium deficiency in colon but not liver; folate had no effect. Selenium, deficiency did not affect DNA methyltransferase (Dnmt) activity in liver but tended to decrease (p<0.06) the activity of the enzyme in the colon. Dietary folate did not affect liver or colon Dnmt. These results in rats fed adequate selenium are similar to previous results found in rats fed supranutritional selenium. This suggests that selenium deficiency appears to be a more important modifier of methyl metabolism than either adequate or supplemental selenium.

Chemical composition, structure, and response to enzyme pretreatment AN - 807287792; 13858383 AB - Information is presented on structure, composition, and response to enzymes of corn stover related to barriers for bioconversion to ethanol. Aromatic compounds occurred in most tissue cell walls. Ferulic acid esterase treatment before cellulase treatment significantly improved dry weight loss and release of phenolic acids and sugars in most fractions over cellulase alone. Leaf fractions were considerably higher in dry weight loss and released sugars with esterase treatment, but stem pith cells gave up the most phenolic acids. Results help identify plant fractions more appropriate for coproducts and bioconversion and those more suitable as residues for soil erosion control.

AN - 68400581; 18563659 AB - Gram-positive bacteria have been explored to convert lignocellulosic biomass to biofuel and bioproducts. Our long-term goal is to create genetically engineered lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains that convert agricultural biomass into ethanol and other value-added products. The immediate approaches toward this goal involve genetic manipulations by either introducing ethanol production pathway genes or inactivating pathways genes that lead to production of undesired byproducts. The widely studied species Lactobacillus plantarum is now considered a model for genetic manipulations of LAB. In this study, L. plantarum TF103 strain, in which two of the chromosomal L-ldh and D-ldh genes are inactivated, was used to introduce additional mutations on the chromosome to eliminate undesired fermentation products. We targeted the acetolactate synthase gene (als) that converts pyruvate to acetolactate, to eliminate the production of acetoin and 2,3-butanodial. A pBluescript derivative containing sections of the als coding region and an erythromycin resistance gene was directly introduced into L. plantarum TF103 cells to create mutations under selection pressure. The resulting erythromycin resistant (Em(r)) TF103 strain appears to have chromosomal mutations of both the als and the adjacent lysP genes as revealed by polymerase chain reaction and Southern blot analyses. Mutations were thus generated via targeted homologous recombination using a Gram-negative cloning vector, eliminating the use of a shuttle vector. This method should facilitate research in targeted inactivation of other genes in LAB.

AN - 67872539; 16617980 AB - In two trials, 60 male commercial broilers were placed in each of eight environmentally controlled chambers receiving 0, 25, 50, or 75 ppm aerial ammonia from 1 to 28 days. Birds exposed to 25 ppm (lower concentration) ammonia gas developed ocular abnormalities but at a slower rate when compared with birds exposed to 50 and 75 ppm (higher concentrations). Birds exposed to higher concentrations also developed more severe lesions. With little atmospheric ammonia present after 28 days of the grow-out stage, the corneas indicated signs of healing. Lymphocytes and heterophils were seen in the iris at 49 days in ammonia-exposed birds even when ammonia exposure was terminated at 28 days. The lower ammonia concentrations resulted in abnormalities that were slight when compared with those seen at the higher ammonia concentrations. As measured by the incidence of inflammatory infiltrates in the trachea, lung, and air sacs, respiratory tract tissues did not appear to be affected by any tested level of aerial ammonia. The findings in this investigation represent the first report indicating that ammonia-induced uveitis in chickens clears rapidly after exposure to ammonia ceases.

AN - 67872135; 16619618 AB - Laboratory-reared Culicoides sonorensis Wirth & Jones were infected with vesicular stomatitis virus serotype New Jersey (family Rhabdoviridae, genus Vesiculovirus, VSNJV) through intrathoracic inoculation. After 10-d incubation at 25 degrees C, these insects were allowed to blood feed on four steers. Two other steers were exposed to VSNJV through intralingual inoculation with 10(8) tissue culture infective dose50 VSNJV. All six steers became seropositive for VSNJV. The results demonstrate the ability of C. sonorensis to transmit VSNJV to livestock. Only the animals intralingually inoculated with VSNJV showed clinical signs in the form of vesicles at the site of inoculation. Uninfected C. sonorensis allowed to feed on the exposed animals did not become infected with VSNJV. Animals infected by C. sonorensis showed a slower antibody response compared with intralingually inoculated animals. This is probably because of different amounts of virus received via insect transmission and syringe inoculation. A significant difference was found in the serum acute-phase protein alpha-1-acid glycoprotein in animals that received VSNJV through C. sonorensis transmission. These animals had previously been exposed to insect attack in the field compared with intralingually inoculated animals and C. sonorensis-infected animals that had been protected from insect attack. The failure to observe clinical signs of vesicular stomatitis through transmission of VSNJV by C. sonorensis may explain widespread subclinical infections during vesicular stomatitis epidemics.

AN - 67848789; 16604118 AB - Fusarium graminearum Z-3639 and F. sporotrichioides NRRL3299 produce the trichothecene mycotoxins 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol and T-2 toxin, respectively. These toxins differ in oxygenation at C-4, C-7, and C-8. In F. sporotrichioides, Tri1 (FsTri1) controls C-8 hydroxylation. To determine the function of an apparent F. graminearum Tri1 (FgTri1) homolog, both FsTri1 and FgTri1 genes were heterologously expressed in the trichothecene-nonproducing species F. verticillioides by fusing the Tri1 coding regions to the promoter of the fumonisin biosynthetic gene FUM8. FsTri1 and FgTri1 have been partially characterized by disruption analysis, and the results from these analyses suggest that FsTri1 most likely has a single function but that FgTri1 may have two functions. Transgenic F. verticillioides carrying the FsTri1 (FvF8FsTri1) converted exogenous isotrichodermin and calonectrin to 8-hydroxyisotrichodermin and 8-hydroxycalonectrin, respectively. Transgenic F. verticillioides carrying FgTri1 (FvF8FgTri1) converted isotrichodermin to a mixture of 7-hydroxyisotrichodermin and 8-hydroxyisotrichodermin but converted calonectrin to a mixture of 7-hydroxycalonectrin, 8-hydroxycalonectrin, and 3,15-diacetyldeoxynivalenol. A fourth compound, 7,8-dihydroxycalonectrin, was identified in large-scale F. verticillioides FvF8FgTri1 cultures fed isotrichodermin. Our results indicate that FgTri1 controls both C-7 and C-8 hydroxylation but that FsTri1 controls only C-8 hydroxylation. Our studies also demonstrate that F. verticillioides can metabolize some trichothecenes by adding an acetyl group to C-3 or by removing acetyl groups from C-4 or C-15. In addition, wild-type F. verticillioides can convert 7,8-dihydroxycalonectrin to 3,15-diacetyldeoxynivalenol.

AN - 67772255; 16553268 AB - In view of the alleged effect of humic acid (HA) on growth plate arthrosis in humans, we sought to find if poultry tibial dyschondroplasia (TD) is caused by HA that can occur as a ground water contaminant. In 2 separate trials, broiler chickens were fed different concentrations of HA added to their diet for 4 and 5 wk. The effects of these treatments were measured by general health indices such as growth, feed conversion ratio, relative organ weights, blood differential count, serum chemistry, TD index, and bone biomechanical strength. Humic acid treatment decreased BW but appeared to improve feed conversion ratio. There was no effect on TD index or bone biomechanical strength in HA-treated birds compared with controls. There was no toxic effect of HA that was evident by the absence of any dramatic change in relative organ weights or other telltale signs of serum clinical chemistry that would suggest liver, muscle, or kidney dysfunction. Red blood cell, white blood cell, monocyte, and hematocrit values were not affected, but there was a decrease in blood heterophil counts and heterophil to lymphocyte ratio, which was significant in 4-wk HA-treated birds. Overall these results show that HA slows down growth, but it does not have any adverse health effects on chickens.

AN - 67738330; 16494898 AB - Potato tuber moth (PTM), Phthorimaea operculella, is a serious pest of stored potato in most countries where potatoes are grown. Entomopathogens offer promise as alternatives to broad spectrum insecticides for management of this pest. The fungus Muscodor albus, which produces a mixture of antimicrobial volatile organic chemicals, was tested for its insecticidal activity against PTM. Adults and neonate larvae were exposed to volatiles generated by 15 or 30 g of M. albus rye grain culture plus water for 72 h in hermetically sealed 28.3 L chambers at 24 degrees C. Mean percent mortalities in adult moths exposed to 0, 15, and 30 g of fungal formulation were 0.9, 84.6, and 90.6%, respectively. Development to the pupal stage of PTM that were exposed as neonate larvae to 15 or 30 of M. albus culture was reduced by 61.8 and 72.8%, respectively, relative to controls.

AN - 67717172; 16517895 AB - Clostridium perfringens strains (type A) isolated from an integrated poultry operation were subtyped using repetitive-element PCR with Dt primers. Isolates were obtained from fecal, egg shell, fluff, and carcass rinse samples as part of a previously reported temporally linked epidemiological survey. A total of 48 isolates of C. perfringens were obtained from different stages of the broiler chicken production chain from two separate breeder farms that supplied a single hatchery that in turn provided chicks to a single grow-out farm whose flocks were processed at a single plant. All 48 isolates were typeable (100% typeability) by repetitive-element PCR with Dt primers. This subtyping method was highly reproducible and discriminatory. By repetitive-element PCR with Dt primers, isolates were classified into four major branches with 12 subgroups or clades. The Simpson's index of discrimination was calculated to be 0.96 for groupings of >95% correlation. Toxin gene profiles of the isolates indicated that all of the isolates were C. perfringens alpha-toxin gene positive and 46 of 48 isolates were beta2-toxin gene positive. All strains were negative for beta- and epsilon-toxin genes. Repetitive sequence-based PCR was found to be a technically practical and reproducible means of subtyping C. perfringens libraries from specific epidemiological or production environment settings.

AN - 67707897; 16510706 AB - Managed drainage ditches are common in the midwestern United States. These ditches are designed to remove water from fields as quickly as possible, and sediment buildup necessitates dredging, to ensure adequate water removal. This laboratory study was conducted to determine the impact of ditch dredging on soluble phosphorus (P) transport. Ditch sediments were collected from a drainage ditch in northeastern Indiana immediately before and after dredging. The sediments were placed in a stream simulator, and stream water was loaded with 0.55 mM P for 5 d (adsorption experiment). Water was then removed, and "clean" water (no P added) was used for a desorption experiment, lasting 1 d. During the adsorption experiment, pre-dredged sediments were able to remove P from the water column quicker, and P concentrations 120 h after introduction of high P water were lower for the pre-dredged sediments (0.075 mM P) than the dredged sediments (0.111 mM P). During the desorption experiment, P was released to the water column slower in the pre-dredged treatment than the dredged treatment (instantaneous flux at t = 0 was 0.205 microM P h(-1) for pre-dredged and 0.488 microM P h(-1) for dredged). This occurred despite higher Mehlich 3-extractable P in the pre-dredged sediments than the dredged sediments. Equilibrium phosphorus concentrations (EPCo) were lower in the pre-dredged sediments during both adsorption and desorption experiments. Transport of soluble P immediately after dredging will likely increase in drainage ditches; however, dredging is a necessary management tool to ensure adequate discharge of water from surrounding fields.

AN - 67661347; 16478496 AB - To develop a sensitive real time immuno-polymerase chain reaction (rtI-PCR) method for detecting norovirus (NV) capsid protein in food samples. The viral antigens were captured by two polyclonal antisera against recombinant Norwalk viral-like particles (rNVLPs). Biotin-conjugated antibodies, avidin and biotin-conjugated DNA reporter were used to convert the protein signals into DNA signals. The reporter DNA was then amplified by addition of primers and PCR. A real time PCR method was used in order to perform a quantitative post-PCR analysis. One hundred rNVLPs (10 fg) and a NV sample containing 660 rNVLPs equivalent particle units (66 fg) could be detected by this method. The PCR inhibitors present in the food samples had minimal effect on antigen capture and were removed by multiple wash steps during the rtI-PCR procedure. The sensitivity of rtI-PCR was >1000-fold higher than the standard enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and approximately 10 times higher than reverse transcription PCR in detection of NV capsid protein in stool and food samples. This is the first report of a rtI-PCR method to detect NV in contaminated food samples without concentration or purification of the virus.

AN - 67627984; 16455855 AB - Computer models help identify agricultural areas where P transport potential is high, but commonly used models do not simulate surface application of manures and P transport from manures to runoff. As part of an effort to model such P transport, we conducted manure slurry separation and soil infiltration experiments to determine how much slurry P infiltrates into soil after application but before rain, thus becoming less available to runoff. We applied dairy and swine slurry to soil columns and after both 24 and 96 h analyzed solids remaining on the soil surface for dry matter, total phosphorus (TP), and water-extractable inorganic (WEIP) and organic (WEOP) phosphorus. We analyzed underlying soils for Mehlich-3 and water-extractable P. We also conducted slurry separation experiments by sieving, centrifuging, and suction-filtering to determine which method could easily estimate slurry P infiltration into soils. About 20% of slurry solids and 40 to 65% of slurry TP and WEIP infiltrated into soil after application, rendering this P less available to transport in runoff. Slurry separation by suction-filtering through a screen with 0.75-mm-diameter openings was the best method to estimate this slurry P infiltration. Measured quantities of manure WEOP changed too much during experiments to estimate WEOP infiltration into soil or what separation method can approximate infiltration. Applying slurries to soils always increased soil P in the top 0 to 1 cm of soil, frequently in the 1- to 2-cm depth of soil, but rarely below 2 cm. Future research should use soils with coarser texture or large macropores, and slurry with low dry matter content (1-2%).

AN - 67627785; 16455853 AB - Bacteriophages (phages) associated with Salmonella were collected from nine swine manure lagoons in Mississippi. Phages were isolated by an enrichment protocol or directly from effluent. For enrichment, chloroform-treated samples were filtered (0.22 mum) and selectively enriched by adding a cocktail of Salmonella strains in trypticase soy broth. After overnight incubation at 35 degrees C, chloroform was added and samples stored at 5 degrees C. Enriched samples were tested by double agar layer (DAL) plaque assay against individual Salmonella isolates. Phage titers of 2.9 x 10(8) to 2.1 x 10(9) plaque forming units (pfu) per mL were produced, but estimation of phage titers in lagoons was not possible. For direct isolation, effluent was clarified by centrifugation, filtered (0.22 microm), and used in DAL plaque assays to select single-plaque isolates for 15 Salmonella strains. Plaque counts varied among Salmonella strains and lagoons. The most sensitive strain for direct phage recovery was ATCC 13311. Phage titers estimated by direct isolation with ATCC 13311 ranged among lagoons from 12 to 148 pfu per mL. In limited host range tests, 66 isolates recovered by the enrichment protocol produced plaques only on Enteritidis and Typhimurium strains of Salmonella and none produced plaques on lagoon isolates of Citrobacter, Escherichia, Proteus, Providencia, or Serratia. Electron microscopy (EM) showed purified enrichment isolates had Podoviridae morphology (tailless 50-nm icosahedral heads with tail spikes). Electron microscopy of clarified concentrated effluent showed 5.5:1 tailless to tailed phages. The isolated phages have potential as typing reagents, specific indicators, and biocontrol agents of Salmonella.

Subsidy increases induced greater crop insurance coverage, which in turn reduced farmers' financial risks. Crop insurance participation data are merged with farm-level Census of Agriculture data from 1992 and 1997 to compare how individuals' off-farm labour supply changed in response to the policy-induced change in insurance coverage. The empirical approach controls for unobserved heterogeneity and accounts for the censored nature of the data. It is found that greater insurance coverage reduces the off-farm labour supply of operators who produced at least $100 000 of output, and increased the labour supply of small-farm operators who produced less than $25 000 of output.

In this report we suggest that evolution of the aflatoxin biosynthesis gene cluster has been a multistep process. More than 300 million years ago a primordial cluster of genes allowed production of anthraquinones that may have served as insect attractants to facilitate spore dispersal. Later adaptive evolutionary steps introduced genes into the cluster that encoded enzymes associated with fungal virulence. These genes may have allowed the otherwise saprophytic fungi to be better able to colonize living plants. Later, genes for production of aflatoxins B1 and G1 were added to the basal cluster. Loss of the ability to produce aflatoxin G1 occurred with the divergence ofA. flavus, a species that, perhaps, was more successful than its ancestors at colonizing plants. This logical progression in evolutionary development of the aflatoxin biosynthetic cluster fits the phylogenetic data as well as known chemical reactivity of the initially formed anthraquinone polyketide metabolites.

Drought, high temperatures, and insect damage are often associated with high levels of maize aflatoxin contamination. Growing resistant maize hybrids is generally considered the most feasible method of reducing or eliminatingA. flavus infection and subsequent accumulation of aflatoxin. Developing appropriate screening techniques and identifying maize germplasm with resistance to aflatoxin contamination provides the foundation for a breeding program. Only a few sources of aflatoxin resistance have been identified. Four germplasm lines (Mp313E, Mp420, Mp715, and Mp717) have been developed and released by USDA-ARS at Mississippi State University. NC 388, developed at North Carolina State University, is reported as another putative source of aflatoxin resistance. Conventional phenotypic selection was used to successfully combine resistance to aflatoxin contamination from two of these lines, Mp313E and Mp715, with desirable agronomic qualities from Va35. The identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with resistance to aflatoxin contamination will also permit the use of marker assisted selection in transferring resistance into elite germplasm lines. Development of parental inbreds that combine aflatoxin resistance with superior agronomic quality is an essential component of a hybrid maize breeding program designed to reduce or eliminate aflatoxin contamination.

This progress was aided by the development of a rapid laboratory-based kernel screening assay (KSA) used to separate resistant from susceptible seed, and for investigating kernel resistance.A. flavus GUS transformants have also been used, in conjunction with the KSA, to assess the amount of fungal growth in kernels and compare it with aflatoxin accumulation. Several proteins associated with resistance (RAPs) have been identified using 1 D PAGE. However, proteomics is now being used to further the discovery of RAPs.

They are produced primarily byAspergillus flavus andA. parasiticus. In order to better understand the molecular mechanisms that control aflatoxin production, identification of genes usingA. flavus expressed sequence tags (ESTs) and microarrays is currently being performed. Sequencing and annotation ofA. flavus ESTs from a normalizedA. flavus cDNA library identified 7,218 unique EST sequences. Genes that are putatively involved in aflatoxin biosynthesis, regulation and signal transduction, fungal virulence or pathogenicity, stress response or antioxidation, and fungal development were identified from these ESTs. Microarrays containing over 5,000 uniqueA. flavus gene amplicons were constructed at The Institute for Genomic Research. Gene expression profiling under aflatoxin-producing and non-producing conditions using this microarray has identified hundreds of genes that are potentially involved in aflatoxin production. Further investigations on the functions of these genes by gene knockout experiments are underway. This research is expected to provide information for developing new strategies for controlling aflatoxin contamination of agricultural commodities.

The mechanism of this inhibition was found to take place upstream from the gene cluster, including the regulatory gene,aflR, involved in aflatoxin biosynthesis. Additional research using other antioxidant phenolics showed similar antiaflatoxigenic activity to gallic acid. Treatment ofA. flavus withtert-butyl hydroperoxide resulted in an almost doubling of aflatoxin biosynthesis compared to untreated samples. Thus, antioxidative response systems are potentially useful molecular targets for control ofA. flavus. A high throughput screening system was developed using yeast,Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as a model fungus. This screening provided an avenue to quickly identify fungal genes that were vulnerable to treatment by phenolic compounds. The assay also provided a means to quickly assess effects of combinations of phenolics and certain fungicides affecting mitochondrial respiration. For example, theS. cerevisiae sod2 mutant was highly sensitive to treatment by certain phenolics and strobilurins/antimycin A, fungicides which inhibit complex III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Verification of stress to this system in the target fungus,A. flavus, was shown through complementation analysis, wherein the mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) gene (sodA) ofA. flavus in the ortholog mutant,sod2, ofS. cerevisiae, relieved phenolic-induced stress. Mitochondrial antioxidative stress systems play an important role in fungal response to antifungals. Combined treatment of fungi with phenolics and inhibitors of mitochondrial respiration can effectively suppress growth ofA. flavus in a synergistic fashion.

This product provides the means of introducing a competitive, non-aflatoxigenic strain ofAspergillus flavus into soils where peanuts are being grown. The introduced strain competitively excludes toxigenic strains naturally present from invading developing peanuts. The biocontrol technology was made commercially available in 2004 by Circle One Global, Inc., upon receiving U.S. Environmental Protection Agency section 3 registration of afla-guard as a biopesticide. The product was applied to approximately 2000 ha of peanuts in Georgia and Alabama during the 2004 crop year. Application of afla-guard changed the composition ofA. flavus soil populations from an average 71.1% toxigenic strains in untreated fields to only 4.0% in treated soils. Analyses of farmer's stock peanuts being delivered at seven different locations showed a consistent reduction in aflatoxin contamination in peanuts from fields treated with afla-guard. Over all locations, aflatoxin averaged 78.9 ng/g in untreated peanuts compared with 11.7 ng/g in treated peanuts, an 85.2% reduction. Peanuts from treated and untreated fields were stored together in separate warehouse bins at two different locations. Aflatoxin analyses at the Unadilla, GA location showed that 48.4% of shelled edible lots from untreated fields contained unacceptable levels of aflatoxin (>15 ng/g). At the Dawson, GA location, 15.8% of shelled lots from untreated fields contained >15 ng/g. At both locations, no shelled edible lots from treated fields contained >15 ng/g. Mean aflatoxin concentrations in edible peanuts from untreated and treated fields at Unadilla were 36.2 and 0.9 ng/g, respectively. At Dawson the respective means were 7.2 and 2.2 ng/g.

Six significant (LOD >3.1) quantitative trait loci (QTL) were identified for disease resistance, located on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, and 8. Results were compared with a previous study that had used the same RIL population and pathogen isolate, but had examined resistance in mature rather than juvenile plants. There was a very weak but significant correlation between the overall resistance phenotypes of the RILs scored as mature and juvenile plants. Two QTL were found in similar positions on chromosomes 1 and 3 at both growth stages. Other QTL were specific to one growth stage or the other. Twenty-three of these RILs, together with the parental lines, were inoculated in the greenhouse with four C. heterostrophus isolates. Results indicated that the quantitative resistance observed was largely isolate non-specific.

Isolation of the compound from collected volatiles was guided by comparisons of gas chromatograms of extracts from males and females and by gas chromatography-electroantennographic detection. The compound was identified by a combination of spectrometric methods and microchemical tests as the novel dimethylfuran lactone, 12,13-dimethyl-5, 14-dioxabicyclo[9.2.1]tetradeca-1 (13),11-dien-4-one. The structure was confirmed by synthesis, and the synthetic compound attracted males and females of both species in field bioassays. These beetles were previously introduced into North America as biological control agents for the invasive wetland weed, purple loosestrife Lythrum salicaria, and the pheromone could become a tool for monitoring populations.

Previous studies have shown that it is possible for this insect to oviposit on and complete development on safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) under no-choice laboratory conditions; however, it has never been reported as a pest of safflower. Field experiments were conducted at three sites in eastern Turkey during 3 years to evaluate the risk of attack on safflower by this insect in its native range. At two sites where C. basicorne was the only apionid observed, no safflower plants were attacked despite high attack rates on yellow starthistle test plants (48-98% of plants infested). At a third site, where C. basicorne and three other species in the same genus; C. scalptum, C. orientale, and C. onopordi were present, 8-26% of safflower plants were infested, but none of the insects reared from safflower during 3 years were C. basicorne. Other authors have reported rearing C. basicorne from field-collected plants of only Ce. solstitialis, Ce. cyanus, Ce. depressa, and Cnicus benedictus. Our results indicate that C. basicorne does not attack safflower under field conditions and that its introduction would not pose a risk to this crop.

Fruit bodies were sampled in 15 northern hardwood stands in northern Wisconsin and the upper peninsula of Michigan. Sampling was conducted in five old-growth stands, five uneven-age stands, three even-age unthinned stands and two even-age thinned stands. Plots 100 m x 60 m were established and 3000 m super(2) within each plot was sampled during the summers of 1996 and 1997. A total of 255 polyporoid and corticioid morphological species were identified, 46 (ap18%) of which could not be assigned to a described species. Species accumulation curves for sites and management classes differed from straight lines, although variability from year to year suggests that more than 2 y of sampling are needed to characterize annual variation. Mean species richness and diversity index values did not vary significantly by management class, although mean richness on large diameter wood (> 15 cm diam) varied with moderate significance. Richness values on small diameter debris varied significantly by year, indicating that a large part of year-to-year variability in total species richness is due to small diameter debris. ten species had abundance levels that varied by management class. Two of these species, Cystostereum murraii and Rigidoporus crocatus, were most abundant in old-growth and might be good indicators of stands with old-growth characteristics. Oxyporus populinus, an important pathogen of Acer spp., was most abundant in even-age stands. Regression analyses indicated that substrate quality (diameter and species), quantity and management history of the stand were important in predicting the number of occurrences of the five most- abundant species. Changes in the diversity and species composition of the wood- inhabiting fungal community could have significant implications for the diversity, health and productivity of forest ecosystems.

We examined soil fungal and bacterial communities, soil C:N ratio, soil particle size fractions, and weed seed mortality in soil from fields with over 10 yr of five contrasting management histories with the objective of determining if seed mortality could be explained by differences in soil properties. Seed mortality of giant foxtail and velvetleaf were greatest in soil from the conventionally managed systems and lowest in soil from a reduced input system. Principal-components analysis of soil microbial communities, as determined through denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of polymerase chain reaction-amplified ribosomal RNA genes (PCR-DGGE), showed distinct differences in the composition of fungal and bacterial communities among the study soils. The first principal component of the 18S rDNA PCR-DGGE analysis of fungal community composition showed a strong negative correlation with both giant foxtail (- 0.52, P < 0.05) and velvetleaf (- 0.57, P < 0.01) seed mortality, as did ordination with nonmetric multidimensional scaling (NMS) [giant foxtail (- 0.54, P < 0.01) and velvetleaf (- 0.60, P < 0.01)], suggesting that seeds of the two species were affected similarly by changes in the soil fungal community. For giant foxtail, weed seed mortality was also positively correlated (r = 0.48, P < 0.05) with the first NMS axis of the bacterial 16S rDNA analysis. None of the other measured soil properties were significantly correlated with weed seed mortality. Thus, for the soils tested here, management history, microbial community composition, and weed seed mortality were linked. To extend these results to the field, more work is needed to identify components of the fungal and bacterial communities that are active in seed degradation, and to develop conservation biocontrol recommendations for these species.Nomenclature: Giant foxtail, Setaria faberi Herrm., SETFA; velvetleaf, Abutilon theophrasti Medik., ABUTH.

Osbeck) protoplasts were isolated from nucellar-derived embryogenic callus, cultured in alginate beads for 5-30 days, and the resulting p-calli released by liquefaction and cultured on semi-permeable membranes overlaid on MT culture medium. Somatic embryos did not develop from 5- to 10-day-old p-calli but did develop from 15-, 20-, 25-, and 30-day-old p-calli. There were no significant differences in the numbers of embryos produced among the 15- to 30-day-old p-calli and no abnormal embryo morphologies were observed. The minimum size of p-calli to form embryos was 77.84 mu m in diameter. Embryos were smaller from p-calli than those produced from embryogenic callus; p-calli-derived embryos ranged in size between 0.5 and 0.8 mm, while embryos derived from embryogenic callus ranged between 1 and 2 mm.

During 2005, tomato plants exhibiting TYLCV symptoms were found in several locations in the Charleston, SC area. These locations included a whitefly research greenhouse at the United States Vegetable Laboratory, two commercial tomato fields, and various garden centers. Symptoms included stunting, mottling, and yellowing of leaves. Utilizing the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and begomovirus degenerate primer set prV324 and prC889, the expected 579-bp amplification product was generated from DNA isolated from symptomatic tomato leaves. Another primer set (KL04-06_TYLCV CP F: 5'GCCGCCG AATTCAAGCTTACTATGTCGAAG; KL04-07_TYLCV CP R: 5'GCCG CCCTTAAGTTCGAAACTCATGATATA), homologous to the Florida isolate of TYLCV (GenBank Accession No. AY530931) was designed to amplify a sequence that contains the entire coat protein gene. These primers amplified the expected 842-bp PCR product from DNA isolated from symptomatic tomato tissues as well as viruliferous whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) adults. Expected PCR products were obtained from eight different samples, including three tomato samples from the greenhouse, two tomato plants from commercial fields, two plants from retail stores, and a sample of 50 whiteflies fed on symptomatic plants. For each primer combination, three PCR products amplified from DNA from symptomatic tomato plants after insect transmission were sequenced and analyzed. All sequences were identical and generated 806 nucleotides after primer sequence trimming (GenBank Accession No. DQ139329). This sequence had 99% nucleotide identity with TYLCV isolates from Florida, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Guadeloupe, and Puerto Rico. In greenhouse tests with a total of 129 plants in two separate experiments, 100% of the tomato plants became symptomatic as early as 10 days after exposure to whiteflies previously fed on symptomatic plants. A low incidence (<1%) of symptomatic plants was observed in the two commercial tomato fields. In addition, two symptomatic tomato plants obtained from two different retail garden centers tested positive for TYLCV using PCR and both primer sets. Infected plants in both retail garden centers were produced by an out-of-state nursery; this form of "across-state" distribution may be one means of entry of TYLCV into South Carolina. To our knowledge, this is the first report of TYLCV in South Carolina.

The objective of this research was to investigate cultivar-specific chloride responses under controlled environments. Plants were grown in sand culture plus or minus additional chloride ( plus or minus 20 mM KCl) nutrient solutions for four weeks. Of cultivars given additional chloride, `Butte, `Sharp, `Ingot, `Oxen, `Forge, and `Ember had significantly greater shoot chloride uptake than `Marshall. In soil-grown plants given 0, 20, 80, or 160 mM KCl from planting to heading, seed number remained constant, while individual seed weight and total yield decreased at higher KCl treatment levels in `Butte. Individual seed weight remained constant, while seed number and total yield increased in `Marshall. It was concluded that chloride fertilizer response in `Marshall under field conditions may have been mediated by reduced chloride uptake, which in turn resulted in decreased chloride toxicity at higher-chloride soil fertility levels.

Our goal is to direct the evolution of RuBisCO variants with improved kinetic and biophysical properties. The Calvin Cycle was partially reconstructed in Escherichia coli; the engineered strain requires the Synechococcus PCC6301 RuBisCO for growth in minimal media supplemented with a pentose. We randomly mutated the gene encoding the large subunit of RuBisCO (rbcL), co-expressed the resulting library with the small subunit (rbcS) and the Synechococcus PCC7492 phosphoribulokinase (prkA), and selected hypermorphic variants. The RuBisCO variants that evolved during three rounds of random mutagenesis and selection were over-expressed, and exhibited 5-fold improvement in specific activity relative to the wild-type enzyme. These results demonstrate a new strategy for the artificial selection of RuBisCO and other non-native metabolic enzymes.

Anthracnose, caused by the fungus Colletotrichum acutatum, is one of the most serious diseases of strawberry worldwide. Tissue-culture induced (somaclonal) variation provides one strategy for generating disease-resistant genotypes. As part of a program to generate strawberry germplasm resistant to anthracnose, an in vitro screening system was used to evaluate several commercial cultivars, Chandler, Delmarvel, Honeoye, Latestar, Pelican and Sweet Charlie propagated in vitro, and shoots regenerated from leaf explants of these cultivars for resistance to C. acutatum isolate Goff (highly virulent). Regenerants with increased levels of resistance were identified from all of the cultivars. The greatest increases in disease resistance were observed for regenerants from leaf explants of cultivars Pelican and Chandler that exhibited 17.5- and 6.2-fold increases in resistance, respectively. The highest levels of anthracnose resistance (2 to 6% leaf necrosis) were exhibited by regenerants from explants of cultivars Pelican and Sweet Charlie. These studies suggest that generating somaclonal variation may be a viable approach to obtaining strawberry plants with increased levels of anthracnose resistance.

For phloephagous species, such as Dendroctonus bark beetles, whose food does not necessarily contain appropriate types or adequate quantities of sterols, fungal symbionts may provide an alternative source in the form of ergosterol. We determined and compared the relative amounts of ergosterol in the primary fungal associates of Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins and Dendroctonus rufipennis Kirby. Ergosterol content of host tree phloem naturally infested with larvae (and their fungal symbionts) of both species also was compared with ergosterol contents in uninfested phloem tissue. Mycelia of Ophiostoma montium (Rumfold) von Arx and Ophiostoma clavigerum (Robinson-Jeffrey & Davidson) Harrington isolated from D. ponderosae mycangia, and Leptographium abietinum (Peck) Wingfield isolated from the exoskeleton of D. ruifpennis contained relatively large quantities of ergosterol, although no significant differences in content were found among these fungal species. Phloem colonized by larvae of both species contained significantly more ergosterol than did uninfested host phloem tissue. Our results suggest that larval life stages of D. ponderosae and D. rufipennis may obtain vital nutrients not only from the host tree phloem but also from fungal symbionts, in the form of ergosterol, while mining larval galleries.

We review the current state of knowledge on the impacts of plantation forestry on genetic and species diversity at different spatial scales and discuss the economic and ecological implications of biodiversity management within plantation stands and landscapes. Managing plantations to produce goods such as timber while also enhancing ecological services such as biodiversity involves tradeoffs, which can be made only with a clear understanding of the ecological context of plantations in the broader landscape and agreement among stakeholders on the desired balance of goods and ecological services from plantations.

AN - 19996230; 6765712 AB - Switchgrass is a large, North American, perennial grass that is being evaluated as a potential energy crop. There is a need to assess genetic diversity in stored accessions and in remaining native stands to assist breeding and conservation efforts. Marker development will also be necessary for genetic linkage mapping. Toward this end, 32 switchgrass genic di-, tri- and tetranucleotide repeat microsatellites were identified from expressed sequence tags (ESTs). These microsatellites were used to screen individuals from two different named cultivars. The markers displayed a high level of polymorphism consistent with the tetraploid, allogamous behaviour of the cultivars tested.

Seed and leaf tissue from field-grown plants, planted at two locations, were screened for Alternaria spp. and Fusarium spp. on semi-selective media. The results suggest that bmr lines do not have increased susceptibility to colonization by Alternaria spp. However, significantly fewer colonies of Fusarium spp., including Fusarium moniliforme, were recovered from seed of reduced lignin lines from two genetic backgrounds. That the bmr trait in some genetic backgrounds might enable increased resistance to colonization by F. moniliforme was further supported by greenhouse experiments in which peduncles of developing heads were inoculated with F. moniliforme. Mean lesion measurements on bmr lines were significantly lower than those resulting from inoculations on wild-type lines. Analysis of near-isogenic lines revealed that mean lesion lengths on bmr lines were significantly less than those produced on their wild-type counterparts in four of the six genetic backgrounds. These results suggest that reduced lignin lines exhibit, in some cases, increased resistance to Fusarium spp., including F. moniliforme.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of management and time on soil biological quality in contrasting dryland cropping systems at eight locations in the North American Great Plains. Alternative (ALT) cropping systems were characterized by greater cropping intensity (less fallow), more diverse crop sequences, and/or reduced tillage than conventional (CON) cropping systems. Soil biological properties were assessed at depths of 0-7.5, 7.5-15, and 15-30 cm from 1999 to 2002 up to three times per year. Compared to CON, ALT cropping systems had greater microbial biomass and potentially mineralizable N. ALT cropping systems also had greater water stable aggregates in the surface 7.5 cm, but only at four locations. Total glomalin (TG), an organic fraction produced by fungi associated with aggregate stability, differed only at one location (Mandan), where the ALT cropping system had 27% more TG than the CON cropping system. Fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) profiles were highly location dependent, but total extracted FAME tended to be higher in ALT cropping systems. Soil biological properties fluctuated over time at all locations, possibly in response to weather, apparent changes in soil condition at sampling, and the presence or absence of fallow and/or legumes in rotation. Consequently, preplant and post-harvest sampling, when weather and soil conditions are most stable, is recommended for comparison of soil biological properties among management practices. Overall, ALT cropping systems enhanced soil function through: (1) improved retention and cycling of nutrients and (2) maintenance of biodiversity and habitat, implying improved agro-ecosystem performance over time.

These markers originated from cloned inserts enriched for DNA sequences containing tandem di- and tri-nucleotide repeats. In total, 36 clones were selected, sequenced and evaluated. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers for 14 of these sequences consistently produced simple PCR profiles and were found to be polymorphic among 13 Fraser fir samples. In addition, more than half of these loci were found to amplify a wide range of samples from several Abies taxa.

To overcome these difficulties, an effective whole-blood cellular immunoassay for bovine gamma interferon (IFN- gamma ) has been developed. The IFN- gamma test is commonly used in conjunction with tuberculin skin testing as a confirmatory test following a positive response to the caudal fold test (CFT). The present study was conducted to determine the effect of different tuberculin skin-testing regimens on IFN- gamma and antibody production by using calves that were experimentally infected with Mycobacterium bovis. Holstein calves were CFT tested 60 days after inoculation and the comparative cervical test (CCT) was conducted 7 (7-day CCT) or 55 (55-day CCT) days after the CFT. In both the 7-day CCT and 55-day CCT groups, IFN- gamma responses increased 3 days after the CFT; this was immediately followed by a decrease to pre-skin test levels 7 days after the CFT. In both groups, the application of the CCT at 7 or 55 days after the CFT resulted in no significant increase in IFN- gamma production. The administration of the CFT and the CCT to M. bovis-inoculated cattle boosted antibody responses to M. bovis PPD, rMPB83, ESAT-6, and the fusion protein Acr1-MPB83. The boosting effect was more pronounced in the 55-day CCT group. Increases in either IFN- gamma or antibody production were not seen in noninoculated cattle. Measurement of both IFN- gamma and antibody responses after skin testing may be useful in identifying M. bovis-infected cattle; however, the timing of collection of such samples may influence interpretation.

PBW and TBW larvae were highly susceptible to the toxin in BG registered pollen; whereas, results with B AW and CL were more variable, probably because both species are inherently less susceptible to the BG registered toxin and because plant pollens may not be acceptable sources of food for either species. Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA) were positive for all BG registered pollen cotton samples tested. We also collected cotton nectars from extrafloral and floral nectaries of BG registered and non-BG registered cottons. The occurrence of positive ELISAs for nectar was variable and unexplained. We fed moths 10% sucrose solutions alone or containing varying amounts of Cry1 Ac formulated as MVP registered II bioinsecticide (Mycogen Corporation, San Diego, CA). Feeding on the sucrose Cry1 Ac solutions had no effect on male or female mortality or percentages of egg hatch. Moths fed less on sucrose solutions containing the Cry1 Ac formulation compared to sucrose solutions alone. The inert ingredients in the MVP registered II may be a factor influencing the results. ELISA positive and negative Cry1 Ac moths were found, and our evidence suggests that PBW moths in some cases excrete the toxin after it is imbibed.

We sampled fog, bulk precipitation, throughfall, airborne particulates, lichen thalli, and nitrophytic lichen distribution. Throughfall N and S deposition were high, 11.5-25.4 and 3.4-6.7 kg ha super(-1) over 4.5 months at all 9 and 4/9 sites, respectively. Deposition and lichen thallus N were highest at eastern- and western-most sites, implicating both agricultural and urban sources. Fog and precipitation pH were frequently as low as 3.7-5.0. Peak NO sub(x), NH sub(3), and SO sub(2) concentrations in the eastern CRG were low, suggesting enhanced N and S inputs were largely from particulate deposition. Lichens indicating nitrogen-enriched environments were abundant and lichen N and S concentrations were 2x higher in the CRG than surrounding national forests. The atmospheric deposition levels detected likely threaten Gorge ecosystems and cultural resources. Nitrogen, sulfur and acidic deposition threaten natural and cultural resources in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area.

P deficiency was the most frequent condition for soil from two high pollution sites and N deficiency was greatest at a low N deposition site. Concentrations of Pb and Ni, and to a lesser extent Zn and Co, were higher at the high pollution sites. However, positive plant growth responses to P and sometimes to N, and results of wheat root elongation bioassays, suggest that heavy metal concentrations were not directly phytotoxic. Further studies are needed to determine if heavy metal toxicity to mycorrhizal symbionts of eucalyptus (Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh.) from high pollution sites may explain the P deficiency and stunted growth. P deficiency is expected to limit the capacity for biotic N retention in N saturated forested watersheds in the Basin of Mexico dominated by Andisols. Plant response to N deposition may be limited by P limitation in forests growing on Andisol soils in the Basin of Mexico.

In order to assess the dynamic interactions between sorption and mineralization, 2,4-D mineralization experiments were carried using three different soils (clay, loam and sand) assuming different contact times. Mineralization appeared to be the main process limiting 2,4-D availability, with each soil containing its own 2,4-D decomposers. For the clay and the loamy soils, 45 and 48% of the applied dose were mineralized after 10 days. By comparison, mineralization in the sandy soil proceeded initially much slower because of longer lag times. While 2,4-D residues immediately after application were readily available (>93% was extractable), the herbicide was present in a mostly unavailable state (-2% extractable) in all three soils after incubation for 60 days. We found that the total amount of bound residue decreased between 30 and 60 incubation days. Bioaccumulation may have led to reversible immobilization, with some residues later becoming more readily available again to extraction and/or mineralization. Pesticide availability varies with its residence time in soil. Pesticide availability varies with its residence time in soil.

Although appealing to many scientists, this idea has caused considerable controversy among systematists. We applied a DNA barcoding approach to outbreak populations of invasive Liriomyza spp. leafminer pests in the Philippines to explore the use of barcoding in a relatively well studied, economically important group. We sequenced a 527-bp portion of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (COI) from 258 leafminers from 26 plant host species in the Philippines. Neighbor-joining and parsimony analysis were used to compare COI sequences from the Philippines to an extensive database of COI sequences previously obtained from samples of the invasive leafminers Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard), Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess), and Liriomyza sativae Blanchard from locations around the world. We conclude that although a DNA barcoding approach can provide rapid species identifications, in certain instances it is likely to either overestimate or underestimate the number of species present. Only when placed within the context of considerable other data can DNA barcoding be fully interpreted and used. For economically and medically important species, which can be well studied, DNA barcoding offers a powerful means for rapid identifications.

The GUS (uidA) marker gene was tested using two different A. tumefaciens strains, three plasmids and four promoters [CaMV35s, (Aocs)3AmasPmas ('super-promoter'), mas-CaMV35s, and CAB]. GFP was tested with six A. tumefaciens strains, one plasmid (pLC101) and the doubleCaMV35s (dCaMV35s) promoter. The CaMV35s promoter produced more GUS expression than the CAB promoter. A. tumefaciens strains EHA105 and LBA4404 harboring the same plasmid (pBIN19) differed in their effects on GUS expression suggesting an interaction between A. tumefaciens strain and plasmid. A combination of A. tumefaciens EHA105, plasmid pBIN19 and the CaMV35s promoter produced the highest rates of transformation in peach epicotyl internodes (56.8%), cotyledons (52.7%), leaves (20%), and embryonic axes (46.7%) as evaluated by the percentage of explants expressing GUS 14 days after co-cultivation. GFP expression under the control of the dCaMV35s promoter was highest for internode explants but only reached levels of 18-19%. When GFP-containing plasmid pCL101 was combined with each of five A. tumefaciens strains the highest levels of transformation were 20-21% (internode and cotyledons, respectively). When nine peach genotypes were co-cultivated with A. tumefaciens strain EHA105 and GFP-containing plasmid pCL101 the highest levels of transformation were 26-28% (cotyledons and internodes, respectively). While GFP represents a potentially useful transformation marker that allows the non-destructive evaluation of transformation, rates of GFP transformation under the conditions of this study were low. It will be necessary to optimize expression of this marker gene in peach.

Human encroachment on bear range has increased availability of garbage, bird feeders, beehives, and other food sources. Preventing bears from attaining food from anthropogenic sources could mitigate these conflicts. We tested a new shocking mechanism that is being marketed to deter black bears from attaining food from clumped anthropogenic food sources. The Nuisance Bear Controller (NBC) has two 6-volt batteries wired to an automobile vibrator coil/condenser that emits 10,000-13,000 volts through a disk that triggers the device. Activation of the NBC only occurs when a bear or other animal contacts the disk. We tested the NBC in a rural area of central Minnesota by placing both unprotected and protected simulated bird feeders at 10 independent sites during summer and autumn 2004 and measuring the fate of each feeder. During the test period no protected feeders were robbed or destroyed by black bears, whereas 40% of unprotected feeders were robbed or destroyed (P = 0.043, one-tailed Fisher's exact test). The NBC is an inexpensive ($200.00), portable, and adaptable system that potentially can be used in a variety of situations to deter bears from accessing concentrated food sources.

A rational method is needed to help evaluate whether fencing can be cost-effective and which fence designs will be optimal for particular applications. We describe an interactive, dynamic simulation model that conducts economic analyses and predicts economic benefit associated with fences for crops relative to area and perimeter of protected plot, value of crop, percentage of crop damaged by deer annually prior to fencing, efficacy of fence, and costs of fence materials and labor. Users of the model can easily adjust these variables to fit their individual situations and needs. By running a series of simulations, model users can answer questions related directly to fence efficacy and cost-effectiveness.

A variety of fencing methods are used to reduce deer presence at airports and agricultural areas. Electric fences may offer a less expensive alternative to expensive woven-wire fences. We tested an electric fence product, ElectroBraid registered (Yarmouth, N.S., Canada), on free-ranging deer in northern Ohio. We conducted both 1- and 2-choice tests, measuring deer intrusions and corn consumption at 10 sites encompassed with charged, noncharged or no fence. Mean daily deer intrusions decreased in each test when the fence was powered. When power was immediately applied to the fence, intrusions decreased 88-99%. When power was delayed for 10 weeks, intrusions were reduced 90%. When power was turned on and off within a 4-week period, intrusions decreased 57%.

The procedure employs a commercially available DNeasy tissue kit for the extraction of high-quality DNA from the insect, followed by one-step polymerase chain reaction amplification using previously published oligonucleotide primers specific to X. fastidiosa. The procedure does not require the use of phenol, chloroform or alcohol for the precipitation of nucleic acids. Also it does not need additional purification or enrichment steps, and can be completed in less than a day. The procedure was used successfully in detecting X. fastidiosa in two potentially important leafhopper species, Graphocephala versuta and G. coccinea, and in a treehopper species Entilia concisa, collected from a nursery where bacterial leaf scorch disease caused by X. fastidiosa occurs.

Names of pheromone compounds were analysed for aliphatic chain length, unsaturation position, geometric configuration, functional group (aldehyde, alcohol, acetate, epoxide, methyl-branched and hydrocarbon) and number of instances such combinations are used by species and families. The analyses revealed pheromone blends of species ranged from one to eight components (45% species with one component, 36% two, 12% three, 5% four, 1% five, less than or equal to 0.5% for greater than or equal to six). The numbers of different components of various chain lengths and functional groups, the numbers of instances such compounds are used by species and the numbers of species using such compounds are presented. The average number of pheromone components per species increased as the number of species in a family increased based on linear regression of components in the 10 largest families, with species numbers ranging from 19 to 461. Pooling the four largest families gave a mean of 1.96 components per species that was significantly greater than the mean of the next 14 smaller families (1.63). Because related species in a large family would need more communication channels, this suggests that these species on average evolved to produce and detect more components in their pheromone blends to achieve a unique communication channel than was needed by species in smaller families. Speciation in moths would entail evolutionary changes in both pheromone biosynthetic and sensory systems that avoided competition for communication channels of existing species. Regression analysis indicated that the more species in a family the more unique pheromone components, but the increase diminishes progressively. This suggests that, as the number of components increases with species number in a family, new species are more likely to evolve a unique blend comprising a communication channel from among existing components of the family.

Species richness did not differ significantly between control (92 species) and cut (85) forest based on rarefaction to 1200 captures. Fifty-six percent of all species were shared between control and cut forest, compared to the 64 percent shared between control blocks. Higher captures of nectarivores and frugivores in cut forest likely occurred as a consequence of postharvest resource blooms. Higher captures of some insectivores in cut as compared to control forest were unexpected, attributable to increased wandering or shifts from association with midstory to understory as a consequence of habitat alteration. Logging influenced capture rates for 21 species, either consistently, or via positive interaction with physiognomy or time (13 species higher in cut forest and 8 species higher in control forest). Cut understory sites had lower diversity (H') and scaled dominance than understory and gap sites in control forest. Temporal changes in captures may have resulted from successional dynamics in cut forest: two guilds and three species increased in abundance. Increases in abundances of guilds and particular species were more prevalent in control than in cut forest, suggesting that logging displaced birds to control forest. In general, the effects of logging were relatively minor; low harvest rates and reduced-impact methods may help to retain aspects of avian biodiversity in Amazon forest understories.Original Abstract: Nos estudamos as respostas fisionomico-especificas (ou seja, clareiras vs. sub-bosque) das aves a exploracao madeireira de impacto-reduzido (18.7 m3-ha) comparando 3,500 capturas com redes em parcelas controle e exploradas de uma floresta de terra firme na Amazonia Brasileira entre 20 a 42 meses apos a exploracao. A riqueza de especies nao diferiu significativamente entre a floresta controle (92 especies) e a floresta explorada (85), com base na rarefacao de 1,200 capturas. Cinqueenta e seis por cento das especies eram compartilhadas entre a floresta controle e a floresta explorada, enquanto que 64% das especies eram compartilhadas entre as parcelas controle. A maior incidencia de aves nectarivoras e frugivoras na floresta explorada provavelmente ocorreu em consequencia da proliferacao temporaria de recursos apos a exploracao. As maiores taxas de captura de alguns insetivoros em floresta explorada em relacao a floresta controle foram inesperadas, e sao atribuidas ao incremento da mobilidade das aves ou a um deslocamento de especies associadas ao medio-bosque para o sub-bosque em resposta as alteracoes de habitat. A exploracao madeireira influenciou as razoes de captura de 21 especies, tanto diretamente como atraves da interacao positiva com a fisionomia ou com o tempo (13 especies foram mais comuns na area explorada e 8 especies foram mais comuns na area controle). Os sitios em sub-bosque explorado apresentaram diversidade (H) e dominancia menores do que os sitios em sub-bosque e clareira da floresta controle. Mudancas temporais nas taxas de captura podem ter resultado da dinamica de sucessao da floresta explorada: duas guildas e tres especies incrementaram em abundancia. Incrementos na abundancia das guildas e de algumas especies em particular foram mais frequeentes na floresta controle do que na floresta explorada, sugerindo que a exploracao madeireira deslocou aves para dentro da floresta controle. Em geral, os efeitos da exploracao madeireira foram relativamente pequenos; exploracao de baixa intensidade e metodos de baixo impacto podem ajudar a manter aspectos importantes da diversidade avifaunistica do sub-bosque da floresta Amazonica.

Soil quality assessments may improve our understanding of how soils interact with the hydrosphere and atmosphere. This information can then be used to develop management practices that improve the capacity of the soil to perform its various functions and help identify physical, chemical, and biological soil attributes to quantify the present state of a soil and detect changes resulting from management. In protocols established by the Great Plains cropping system network, sampling and testing procedures were selected to identify physical, chemical, and biological soil attributes responsive to management that may serve as useful indicators in assessing the effects of management on the soil resource. Eight existing long-term studies from throughout the Great Plains in the central USA were used to make these assessments because, (1) many years are required for certain soil properties to change measurably; (2) annual weather causes variation in system performance; and (3) the soil pools of interest are spatially variable. This paper includes detailed descriptions of the treatments and sites, and both long-term and short-term (1999-2002) data on precipitation, temperature, and yields for each location.

We compared soil physical properties of long-term conventional (CON) and alternative (ALT) cropping systems near Akron, Colorado (CO); Brookings, South Dakota (SD); Bushland, Texas (TX); Fargo, North Dakota (ND); Mandan (ND); Mead, Nebraska (NE); Sidney, Montana (MT); and Swift Current, Saskatchewan (SK), Canada. Objectives were to quantify the changes in soil physical attributes in cropping systems and assess the potential of individual soil attributes as sensitive indicators of change in SQ. Soil samples were collected three times per year from each treatment at each site for one rotation cycle (4 years at Brookings and Mead). Water infiltration rates were measured. Soil bulk density (BD) and gravimetric water were measured at 0-7.5, 7.5-15, and 15-30 cm depth increments and water-filled pore space ratio (WFPS) was calculated. At six locations, a rotary sieve was used to separate soil (top 5 cm) into six aggregate size groups and calculate mean weight diameter (MWD) of dry aggregates. Under the CON system at Brookings, dry aggregates (>19 mm) abraded into the smallest size class (< 0.4 mm) on sieving. In contrast, the large aggregates from the ALT system abraded into size classes between 2 and 6 mm. Dry aggregate size distribution (DASD) shows promise as an indicator of SQ related to susceptibility of soil to wind erosion. Aggregates from CON were least stable in water. Soil C was greater under ALT than CON for both Brookings and Mead. At other locations, MWD of aggregates under continuous crop or no tillage (ALT systems) was greater than MWD under CON. There was no crop system effect on water infiltration rates for locations having the same tillage within cropping system. Tillage resulted in increased, decreased, or unchanged near-surface BD. Because there was significant temporal variation in water infiltration, MWD, and BD, conclusions based on a single point-in-time observation should be avoided. Elevated WFPS at Fargo, Brookings, and Mead may have resulted in anaerobic soil conditions during a portion of the year. Repeated measurements of WFPS or DASD revealed important temporal characteristics of SQ that could be used to judge soil condition as affected by management.

Freshly processed broiler carcasses were rinsed, and the rinses were serially diluted. The diluted rinses were mixed with an equal volume of 2 x Bolton enrichment broth (BEB; with or without blood) and placed in different container types for incubation and recovery of Campylobacter spp. BEB in tissue culture flasks recovered Campylobacter from significantly more samples at higher dilutions than did BEB in resealable plastic bags (P< 0.05), which was likely because of the gas permeability of the bags and greater media surface area in the flasks. Blood-free BEB in vented tissue culture flasks was found to give an equivalent rate of Campylobacter recovery as BEB for this sample type.

Even though it has the potential to provide significant quantities of water for crop use under the proper conditions and management. Crop water use from shallow groundwater is affected by soil water flux, crop rooting characteristics, crop salt tolerance, presence of a drainage system, and irrigation system type and management. This paper reviews these factors in detail and presents data quantifying crop use from shallow ground, and describes the existing state of the art with regard to crop management in the presence of shallow ground water. The existing data are used to determine whether in-situ crop water use from shallow ground water is suitable for a given situation. The suggested methodology uses ratios of ground water electrical conductivity to the Maas-Hoffman yield loss threshold values, the day to plant maturity relative to plant growth period, and the maximum rooting depth relative to the nearly saturated zone. The review demonstrates that for in-situ use to be feasible there has to be good quality ground water relative to crop salt tolerance available for an extended period of time. Shallow ground water availability is one area that can be managed to some extent. Crop selection will be the primary determinant in the other ratios.

We used the individual-based simulation model ECOTONE in conjunction with climate and soil texture data to identify grassland site types where the invasive perennial forb Acroptilon repens is likely to be successful, and to create a threat map indicating the most vulnerable regions of Colorado. Acroptilon repens has the potential to become most abundant in dry areas with fine-textured soils. This information can be used to direct management efforts towards the areas at greatest risk, allowing the most effective use of limited resources. The most common approach for identifying invasible regions has been to extrapolate from the locations of existing invasions to find similar sites. Two major drawbacks to this method are the lack of consideration of the role of the existing plant community in inhibiting or facilitating invasion, and the assumption that the invading species is at equilibrium with the environment. The combination of an individual-based simulation model and a geographic information system provides a flexible tool to investigate the community and regional dynamics of invasive plant species.

Research with the O sub(3) concentration parameter led to the recognition that both peak concentrations and cumulative effects are important when relating plant response to O sub(3). The US and Canada currently use O sub(3) concentration-based (exposure-based) parameters for ambient air quality standards for protecting vegetation; the European countries use exposure-based critical levels to relate O sub(3) to vegetation response. Because plant response is thought to be more closely related to O sub(3) absorbed into leaf tissue, recent research has been focused on flux-based O sub(3) parameters. Even though flux-based indices may appear to be more biologically relevant than concentration-based indices, there are limitations associated with their use. The current set of flux-based indices assumes that the plant has no defense mechanism to detoxify O sub(3). This is a serious limitation. In this paper, we review the literature on exposure- and flux-based indices for predicting plant response. Both exposure- and flux-based metrics may overestimate plant response. At this time, flux-based models that take into consideration detoxification mechanisms (referred to as effective flux) provide the best approach to relate O sub(3) to plant response. However, because there is considerable uncertainty in quantifying the various defense mechanisms, effective flux at this time is difficult to quantify. Without adequate effective-flux based models, exposure- based O sub(3) metrics appear to be the only practical measure for use in relating ambient air quality standards to vegetation response.

The objective of this study was to determine when cattle graze velvet lupine (Lupinus leucophyllus Dougl.) during its phenological development, and whether this period overlaps the critical period of gestation. Grazing studies were conducted in 2001, 2002, and 2003 in the same 100 ha pasture in eastern Washington. A second objective was addressed in 2001 to determine if cows with crooked calves consumed more lupine than cows with normal calves. Five mature Hereford cows with crooked calves at their side and 6 mature Hereford cows with normal calves grazed together for the summer. There was no difference (P = 0.17) in the amount of lupine consumed between groups, and all cows consumed some lupine. In 2002, 10 3-year-old Hereford cows with normal calves were used, and in 2003, 8 of the same cows from the 2002 study with normal calves were used. In all 3 years, cows started consuming lupine in July and August after annual grasses dried and annual forbs matured. Lupine is a deep-rooted perennial that remained green and succulent longer into the summer than the associated forages. Concentration of the teratogenic alkaloid anagyrine declined as lupine seeds shattered in late June and early July. Lupine consumption occurred during the critical period of gestation in 2 of the 3 years, but no crooked calves were produced. Apparently, the cows did not ingest sufficient amounts of anagyrine over the susceptible period of time to produce crooked calves. The management recommendation for this site is to restrict access to lupine during July when cattle begin to graze lupine and anagyrine levels may still be relatively high. Once the seeds shatter, toxicity greatly declines.Original Abstract: Ciertos 'Lupines' (Lupinus spp.) contienen alcaloides que cuando son consumidos por las vacas entre los dias 40 al 70 de la gestacion causan defectos congenitos del tipo de contractura del esqueleto y paladar hendido (sindrome del becerro encorvado). El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar en que etapa fenologica del desarrollo del 'Velvet lupine' (Lupinus leucophyllus Dougl.) es consumido por el ganado y si este periodo se traslapa con las etapas criticas de la gestacion. Los estudios de apacentamiento se condujeron en el 2001, 2002, y 2003 en un mismo potrero de 100 ha ubicado al este de Washington. Un segundo objetivo se planteo en el 2001 para determinar si las vacas con becerros encorvados consumieron mas 'Lupine' que las vacas con becerros normales. Cinco vacas maduras de la raza Hereford con becerros encorvados y seis vacas maduras de la misma raza con becerros normales apacentaron juntas en el verano. No hubo diferencia entre grupos de vacas (P = 0.17) en la cantidad consumida de 'Lupine,' y todas las vacas consumieron algo de 'Lupine.' En el 2002, se usaron 10 vacas de la raza Hereford de 3 anos de edad con becerros normales y en el 2003 ocho vacas con becerros normales de ese estudio fueron utilizadas. En los tres anos las vacas iniciaron el consumo de 'Lupine' en Julio y Agosto despues de que los zacates anuales se secaron y las hierbas anuales maduraron. El 'Lupine'es una planta perenne de raiz profunda que en el verano permanece verde y suculenta por mas tiempo que los forrajes asociados. La concentracion del alcaloide teratogenico anagrina disminuyo conforme las semillas de 'Lupine' se dispersan a fines de Junio e inicios de Julio. En dos de los tres anos, el consumo de 'Lupine ocurrio durante el periodo critico de la gestacion, pero no se produjeron becerros encorvados; aparentemente, porque las vacas no ingirieron la cantidades suficientes de anagrina durante el periodo susceptible de la gestacion. La recomendacion de manejo para este sitio es restringir el acceso al 'Lupine' durante Julio cuando el ganado comienza a consumirlo y los niveles de anagrina todavia pueden estar relativamente altos. Una vez que las semillas han sido liberadas la toxicidad disminuye grandemente.

These damages include crop loss, automobile and aviation collisions, disease transmission, environmental degradation, and destruction of ornamental plantings. One practical method of controlling deer damage is the use of exclusionary fences. The relatively high cost of labor and materials required to build effective fences has limited most applications to the protection of orchards, vegetable farms, other high-value resources, and mitigation of human health and safety risks. Improvements in fence technology resulting in less expensive, yet effective fences have expanded the use of fences to manage damage caused by deer. Fences typically installed to manage white-tailed deer damage include wire or plastic mesh, electrified high-tensile steel wire, and electrified polytape or polyrope fence. We reviewed the scientific literature on fencing to determine which fence designs would be the most effective for excluding deer in a variety of situations.

A total of 551 E. faecium were isolated from chick boxliners (n = 16), litter (n = 334), feed (n = 67), and carcass rinse (n = 134) samples from four chicken houses. Two houses on the farm were control houses and did not use any antimicrobials while two other houses on the farm used flavomycin, virginiamycin, and bacitracin during six different chicken grow outs. BOX-PCR and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) results indicated that E. faecium strains had a high degree of genetic diversity as overall clustering was independent of source, house, or grow out. Similarity of greater than or equal to 60% for the majority of BOX-PCR genogroups and greater than or equal to 80% for the majority of PFGE genogroups was observed for a subset of carcass rinse samples (n = 45) examined. Seventy-nine percent (19/24) of isolates in BOX-PCR genogroup 2 also clustered in PFGE genogroup 2, although no association between the isolates and house or grow out was observed. These results suggest that E. faecium from chicken are genetically diverse and that growth-promoting antimicrobials do not affect the genetic population of E. faecium.Original Abstract: Nota de Investigacion-Efecto de dosis subterapeuticas de antimicrobianos en la diversidad genetica de Enterococcus faecium en pollos.Se examino el efecto de promotores de crecimiento (bacitracina, virginiamicina y flavomicina) en la poblacion genetica de Enterococcus faecium aislados en granjas avicolas comerciales integradas. Se obtuvieron 551 aislamientos de E. faecium a partir de los fondos de cajas de pollitos (n = 16), cama (n = 334), alimento (n = 67) y de muestras de agua provenientes de canales lavadas de pollos provenientes de 4 galpones. Se emplearon 2 galpones como galpones control, en ausencia de antimicrobianos, mientras que en los otros 2 galpones se empleo flavomicina, virginiamicina y bacitracina durante la etapa de crecimiento de 6 lotes diferentes. Los resultados de las pruebas de reaccion en cadena por la polimerasa de secuencias de elementos repetitivos y de electroforesis en campos electricos alternos indicaron que las cepas de E. faecium presentan un alto grado de diversidad genetica ya que su clasificacion fue independiente de la fuente, del galpon o del lote. Se observo una similitud mayor o igual al 60% y al 80% para la mayoria de los grupos genotipicos obtenidos mediante la prueba de reaccion en cadena por la polimerasa de secuencias de elementos repetitivos y la prueba de electroforesis en campos electricos alternos, respectivamente, para un subgrupo de muestras de agua provenientes de canales lavadas (n = 45) examinadas. El 79% (19/24) de los aislamientos agrupados en el grupo genotipico 2 mediante la prueba de reaccion en cadena por la polimerasa de secuencias de elementos repetitivos se localizaron igualmente en el grupo genotipico 2 mediante la tecnica de electroforesis en campos electricos alternos, sin embargo, no se observo asociacion alguna entre los aislamientos, galpones o lotes. Los resultados sugieren que las cepas de E. faecium en pollos son geneticamente diversas y que los antimicrobianos promotores del crecimiento no afectan la poblacion genetica del E. faecium.Abbreviations: GPI = gram-positive identification card; PBS = phosphate-buffered saline; PCR = polymerase chain reaction; PFGE = pulsed-field gel electrophoresis; UPGMA = unweighted pair group method; USDA = U.S. Department of Agriculture; VREF = vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium JF - Avian Diseases AU - Jackson, C R AU - Debnam, AL AU - Avellaneda, GE AU - Barrett, J B AU - Hofacre, CL AD - Bacterial Epidemiology and Antimicrobial Resistance Research Unit, USDA-ARS, Russell Research Center, Athens, GA 30605 Y1 - 2006/03// PY - 2006 DA - Mar 2006 SP - 115 EP - 119 PB - American Association of Avian Pathologists VL - 50 IS - 1 SN - 0005-2086, 0005-2086 KW - Genetics Abstracts; Microbiology Abstracts B: Bacteriology KW - Houses KW - Poultry KW - Litter KW - Farms KW - Virginiamycin KW - Genetic diversity KW - Bacitracin KW - Enterococcus faecium KW - Antimicrobial agents KW - Population genetics KW - Carcasses KW - Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis KW - J 02410:Animal Diseases KW - G 07770:Bacteria UR - http://libproxy.lib.unc.edu/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/17271183?accountid=14244 L2 - http://vb3lk7eb4t.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQ%3Amicrobiologyb&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:journal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Avian+Diseases&rft.atitle=Effect+of+Subtherapeutic+Antimicrobials+on+Genetic+Diversity+of+Enterococcus+Faecium+from+Chickens&rft.au=Jackson%2C+C+R%3BDebnam%2C+AL%3BAvellaneda%2C+GE%3BBarrett%2C+J+B%3BHofacre%2C+CL&rft.aulast=Jackson&rft.aufirst=C&rft.date=2006-03-01&rft.volume=50&rft.issue=1&rft.spage=115&rft.isbn=&rft.btitle=&rft.title=Avian+Diseases&rft.issn=00052086&rft_id=info:doi/10.1637%2F7367-041305R.1 L2 - http://journals.allenpress.com/jrnlserv/?request=get-abstract&issn=0005-2086&volume=50&issue=1&page=115 LA - English DB - ProQuest Environmental Science Collection N1 - Date revised - 2006-12-01 N1 - Last updated - 2015-03-25 N1 - SubjectsTermNotLitGenreText - Population genetics; Litter; Poultry; Houses; Carcasses; Farms; Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis; Genetic diversity; Virginiamycin; Bacitracin; Antimicrobial agents; Enterococcus faecium DO - http://dx.doi.org/10.1637/7367-041305R.1 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Epidemiological Investigation, Cleanup, and Eradication of Pullorum Disease in Adult Chickens and Ducks in Two Small-Farm Flocks AN - 17269150; 7001138 AB - Pullorum disease causing acute septicemia and mortality in adult brown chickens was diagnosed in a small-farm chicken flock in Iowa. Also, Salmonella Pullorum was isolated from the intestine of one of four rats trapped on this index farm. Tracing movements of spent hens from the index farm resulted in identification of a second infected flock on a contact farm. Poultry on the contact farm were tested with the stained-antigen, rapid whole-blood test, and two ducks and one chicken gave positive reactions. Reactors were necropsied and cultures of appropriate tissues resulted in isolation of Salmonella Pullorum from one duck and the chicken. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis banding patterns of Salmonella Pullorum isolates from chickens on the index and contact farms, the duck, and the rat demonstrated that all isolates were genetically very similar. Both flocks were quarantined and depopulated and a detailed flock cleanup plan was created for both farms. After extensive cleaning and disinfection procedures were completed on the index farm, environmental monitoring and bioassays of trapped mice were conducted. Negative cultures of environmental swabs and trapped mice and negative blood tests of all birds conducted 4 mo after placement of a new flock on the index farm demonstrated that cleaning and disinfection methods used in this outbreak had successfully eliminated Salmonella Pullorum organisms from this farm.Original Abstract: Reporte de Caso-Investigacion epidemiologica, limpieza y erradicacion de pullorosis en pollos y patos adultos en dos parvadas de granjas pequenas.En una parvada perteneciente a una pequena granja en Iowa se diagnostico pullorosis causando septicemia aguda y mortalidad en aves adultas. Ademas, se aislo Salmonella pullorum del intestino de una de cuatro ratas capturadas en la granja donde se detecto el problema inicial. El rastreo de los movimientos de gallinas de esta granja culmino en la identificacion de una segunda parvada infectada en una granja contacto. Se evaluaron las aves de la granja contacto mediante la prueba rapida con sangre entera y antigeno coloreado, resultando positivos dos patos y un pollo. Las aves reaccionantes fueron necropsiadas y el cultivo de los organos apropiados resulto en el aislamiento de Salmonella pullorum de uno de los patos y del pollo. El patron de electroforesis en gel con pulsos electricos de los aislamientos de Salmonella pullorum obtenidos de los pollos en ambas granjas, del pato y de la rata, demostro que los aislamientos eran geneticamente muy similares. Ambas parvadas fueron sometidas a cuarentena y despoblacion, asi mismo se creo un detallado plan de limpieza para ambas granjas. Luego de finalizar extensivos procedimientos de limpieza y desinfeccion en la granja inicialmente infectada, se realizaron analisis medioambientales y bioensayos en ratones capturados. Los cultivos con resultados negativos de los hisopos medioambientales y de los ratones capturados cuatro meses despues de colocada una nueva parvada en la granja donde se detecto el problema inicial, demostraron que los metodos de desinfeccion utilizados en este brote eliminaron exitosamente la Salmonella pullorum de la granja.Abbreviations: BGN = brilliant green with novobiocin; GN = gram-negative; NPIP = National Poultry Improvement Plan; NVSL = National Veterinary Services Laboratories; PD = Pullorum disease; PFGE = pulsed-field gel electrophoresis; TBG = tetrathionate broth with brilliant green and iodine; XLT4 = xylose lysine tergitol 4 JF - Avian Diseases AU - Anderson, LA AU - Miller, DA AU - Trampel, D W AD - U.S. Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, Veterinary Services, Federal Building, 210 Walnut St., Des Moines, IA 50309 Y1 - 2006/03// PY - 2006 DA - Mar 2006 SP - 142 EP - 147 PB - American Association of Avian Pathologists VL - 50 IS - 1 SN - 0005-2086, 0005-2086 KW - Microbiology Abstracts B: Bacteriology KW - Environmental monitoring KW - Disinfection KW - Mortality KW - Poultry KW - Farms KW - Septicemia KW - Blood KW - Pullorum disease KW - Bioreactors KW - Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis KW - Intestine KW - Salmonella pullorum KW - J 02410:Animal Diseases UR - http://libproxy.lib.unc.edu/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/17269150?accountid=14244 L2 - http://vb3lk7eb4t.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQ%3Amicrobiologyb&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:journal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Avian+Diseases&rft.atitle=Epidemiological+Investigation%2C+Cleanup%2C+and+Eradication+of+Pullorum+Disease+in+Adult+Chickens+and+Ducks+in+Two+Small-Farm+Flocks&rft.au=Anderson%2C+LA%3BMiller%2C+DA%3BTrampel%2C+D+W&rft.aulast=Anderson&rft.aufirst=LA&rft.date=2006-03-01&rft.volume=50&rft.issue=1&rft.spage=142&rft.isbn=&rft.btitle=&rft.title=Avian+Diseases&rft.issn=00052086&rft_id=info:doi/10.1637%2F7397-062105R.1 L2 - http://journals.allenpress.com/jrnlserv/?request=get-abstract&issn=0005-2086&volume=50&issue=1&page=142 LA - English DB - ProQuest Environmental Science Collection N1 - Date revised - 2006-12-01 N1 - Last updated - 2015-03-25 N1 - SubjectsTermNotLitGenreText - Environmental monitoring; Mortality; Blood; Disinfection; Poultry; Farms; Septicemia; Pullorum disease; Bioreactors; Intestine; Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis; Salmonella pullorum DO - http://dx.doi.org/10.1637/7397-062105R.1 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Stocking Rate and Weather Impacts on Sand Sagebrush and Grasses: A 20-Year Record AN - 17262479; 7001042 AB - Understanding how stocking rate or grazing intensity affects the abundance of common plant species is fundamental to the sustainable management of rangelands. We had the unique opportunity to determine the impact of stocking rate on shrub canopy cover and grass basal cover in a sand sagebrush (Artemisia filifolia Torr.) grassland of the Southern Plains, United States. Treatments were imposed over a 20-year time span that included an entire precipitation cycle from wet to dry and back to wet conditions. From 1941 until 1951, continuous stocking treatments of 41, 53, and 82 animal-unit-days ha super(-1) (AUD.ha super(-1)) were imposed with straight-bred Hereford steers (initial weight of 213 kg plus or minus 11 SE) for about 320 days from mid-November to late September of the next year. From 1952 through 1961, the experimental pastures were grazed yearlong by cow-calf pairs at 45, 60, and 87 AUD.ha super(-1). Canopy cover of shrubs and basal cover of grasses were measured by the line-intercept method in 1940, 1942, 1949, 1955, 1958, and 1961. Canopy cover of sand sagebrush was not affected by stocking rate. Individual grass species exhibited positive and negative responses to stocking rate in some years, but no grass species responded to stocking rate in a single direction over the entire length of this long-term study. Stocking rate effects were most obvious under favorable conditions of high precipitation, but these effects were absent during drought. Climatic variability and slope gradient exerted the primary controlling influences on sand sagebrush-grasslands in the Southern Great Plains when stocking rates were within the bounds tested in this study.Original Abstract: Entender como la carga animal o la intensidad de apacentamiento afecta la abundancia de las especies vegetales comunes es fundamental para el manejo sostenible de los pastizales. Tuvimos la oportunidad unica de determinar el impacto de la carga animal en la cobertura de copa de los arbustos y la cobertura basal de los zacates en un pastizal de 'sand sagebrush' (Artemisia filifolia Torr.) de las Planicies del Sur de Estados Unidos de America. Los tratamientos fueron impuestos sobre un periodo de tiempo de 20 anos, el cual incluyo un ciclo entero de precipitacion de humedo a seco y de regreso a condiciones humedas. De 1941 a 1951 los tratamientos de carga continua fueron 41, 53, y 82 unidades-animal-dias ha super(-1) (AUD.ha super(-1)) los que se impusieron con novillos puros de la raza Hereford (peso inicial de 213 kg plus or minus 11 EE) por aproximadamente 320 dias de mediados de Noviembre a fines de Septiembre del ano siguiente. De 1952 a 1961, los potreros experimentales fueron apacentados en forma continua por pares de vaca-becerro a 45, 60, y 87 AUD.ha super(-1). La cobertura de la copa de los arbustos y la basal de los zacates fueron medidas con el metodo de intercepcion de linea en 1940, 1942, 1949, 1955, 1958, y 1961. La cobertura de copa del 'sand sagebrush' no fue afectada por la carga animal. En algunos anos, las especies individuales de zacates mostraron respuestas positivas y negativas a la carga animal, pero a lo largo del estudio las especies de zacates no respondieron a la carga animal en una sola direccion. Los efectos de la carga animal fueron mas obvios bajo condiciones favorables de alta precipitacion y estuvieron ausentes durante la sequia. Cuando las cargas animal estuvieron dentro del los limites probados en este estudio, la variabilidad climatica y el gradiente de pendiente fueron las principales influencias controladoras en el pastizales de 'sand sagebrush' de la Grandes Planicies del Sur.

Our primary objective was to determine how variation in transmitter signal strength affected the size of area being monitored. This information will help researchers better manage the uncertainty related to determining an animal's location relative to a discrete boundary. We used an adjustable attenuator to measure signal strength to determine the minimum number of decibels (dB) required to eliminate detection of a radio signal by receiver/data loggers. We quantified how dB varied depending upon orientation of the transmitter on the animal and distance from receiver/data logger (radius of detection). Based upon this signal strength variation, we then calculated a zone of uncertainty (i.e., the area in which detection of a radio signal was uncertain at a particular radius of detection). The zone of uncertainty increased exponentially with a linear increase in radius of detection. We do not recommend using receiver/data loggers to monitor radiocollared animals in discrete areas unless uncertainty is acceptable.

We evaluated the effectiveness of a motion-activated laser hazing system for repelling captive Canada geese. The system decreased occupancy of 8 pairs of geese on the treated subplot by 83% during habituation trials. When an additional pair of geese were added to the experiment, occupancy of the treated subplot decreased >92% during each of the 20 nights of the extended habituation test. Avoidance (conditioned during the test) remained <80% of pretreatment levels during the 2 days immediately following the habituation test but extinguished 3 days subsequent to the permanent inactivation of the laser hazing system. The motion-activated laser hazing system effectively repelled Canada geese in captivity. Additional field research is needed to determine the spatial extent of the laser hazing system and the effectiveness of the Doppler radar motion detector for repelling wild geese.

Control methods to reduce emissions include acidifying amendments, urease inhibitors, and absorbents. For beef cattle, decreasing crude protein (CP) in diets may be the most practical and cost-effective method to reduce ammonia emissions. Our objective was to quantify the effect of reducing CP in beef cattle diet on ammonia emissions. Two groups of steers were fed diets with either 11.5 or 13.0% CP and all urine and feces were collected. Manures from the two diet treatments were applied in a replicated laboratory chamber experiment, and ammonia emission was quantified using acid gas washing. In four seasonal field trials, manures from the two diet treatments were applied to two 10-m- diameter, circular, artificial feedyard surfaces, and ammonia emission was quantified using the integrated horizontal flux method. Manure from steers fed 11.5% CP diet had less urine, less urinary N, and a lesser fraction of total N in urine, compared with the 13.0% CP diet. Decreasing crude protein in beef cattle diets from 13 to 11.5% significantly decreased ammonia emission by 44% (p < 0.01) in the closed chamber laboratory experiment, and decreased mean daily ammonia flux by 30% (p = 0.10), 52% (p = 0.08), and 29% (p < 0.01) in summer, autumn, and spring field trials, respectively. No difference was observed in winter. On an annual basis, decreasing crude protein reduced daily ammonia flux by 28%. Reducing crude protein in beef cattle diets may provide the most practical and cost-effective way to reduce ammonia emissions from feedyards.

Despite opportunities for sexual recombination, nonrecombinant parasite clones characterized by distinct transmission and pathogenesis traits persist in related parasites (i.e. Toxoplasma gondii). In order to determine whether this may be generally true for parasitic coccidia, and to address evolutionary and taxonomic problems within the genus Sarcocystis, we isolated 12 polymorphic microsatellite markers (four to 14 alleles) for Sarcocystis neurona, the major causative agent of equine protozoal myeloencephalitis (EPM).

Royle) have been reported to provide resistance to the herbicide fluridone. We substituted the arginine 304 present in the wild-type H. verticillata phytoene desaturase (PDS) with all 19 other natural amino acids and tested PDS against fluridone. In in vitro assays, the threonine (Thr), cysteine (Cys), alanine (Ala) and glutamine (Gln) mutations imparted the highest resistance to fluridone. Thr, the three natural mutations [Cys, serine (Ser), histidine (His)] and the wild-type PDS protein were tested in vitro against seven inhibitors of PDS representing several classes of herbicides. These mutations conferred cross-resistance to norflurazon and overall negative cross-resistance to beflubutamid, picolinafen and diflufenican. The T3 generation of transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plants harbouring the four selected mutations and wild-type pds had similar patterns of cross-resistance to the herbicides as observed in the in vitro assays. The Thr304 Hydrilla pds mutant proved to be an excellent marker for the selection of transgenic plants. Seedlings harbouring Thr304 pds had a maximum resistance to sensitivity (R/S) ratio of 57 and 14 times higher than that of the wild-type for treatments with norflurazon and fluridone, respectively. These plants exhibited normal growth and development, even after long-term exposure to herbicide. As Thr304 pds is of plant origin, it could become more acceptable than other selectable markers for use in genetically modified food.

Acquisition and inoculation of Xf occur sometime during the process of stylet penetration into the plant. That process is most rigorously studied via electrical penetration graph (EPG) monitoring of insect feeding. This study provides part of the crucial biological meanings that define the waveforms of each new insect species recorded by EPG. By synchronizing AC EPG waveforms with high-magnification video of H. coagulata stylet penetration in artifical diet, we correlated stylet activities with three previously described EPG pathway waveforms, A1, B1 and B2, as well as one ingestion waveform, C. Waveform A1 occured at the beginning of stylet penetration. This waveform was correlated with salivary sheath trunk formation, repetitive stylet movements involving retraction of both maxillary stylets and one mandibular stylet, extension of the stylet fascicle, and the fluttering-like movements of the maxillary stylet tips. Waveform B1 was ubitquious, interspersed throughout the other waveforms. B1 sub-type B1w was correlated with salivation followed by maxillary tip fluttering. This tip fluttering also occurred before and during B1 sub-type B1s, but was not directly correlated with either the occurrence or frequency of this waveform. Waveform B2 was correlated with sawing-like maxillary stylet movements, which usually occurred during salivary sheath branching. Waveform C was correlated with ingestion. Fluid outflow was also observed as a mechanism to clear the maxillary tips from debris during waveform C. This detailed understanding of stylet penetration behaviors of H. coagulata is an important step toward identifying the instant of bacterial inoculation which, in turn, will be applied to studies of disease epidemiology and development of host plant resistance.

A. majus is native to the Mediterranean Region but it is cultivated in major growing areas including Holland, Israel, the United Kingdom, and the United States. During March 2005, virus-like symptoms including mosaic, generalized chlorosis, vein clearing, interveinal chlorosis, and leaf rugosity were observed in nearly all field-grown A. majus plants at two locations in Martin County, Florida. Inclusion body morphology suggested the presence of one or more potyviruses in the symptomatic plants. Potyvirus infection was confirmed in 11 symptomatic plants using a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit (Agdia, Elkhart, IN). Nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of a 1,625-bp region of one of the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction products amplified with degenerate potyvirus primers from total RNA of symptomatic plants (GenBank Accession No. DQ333346) were 96 to 97% and 93 to 99% identical, respectively, to Clover yellow vein virus (ClYVV) sequences in GenBank. All symptomatic plants tested were potyvirus positive using ELISA, but only a subset was infected with ClYVV suggesting that the field symptoms were the result of infection with additional potyviruses, all of which are likely aphid transmitted. Although several potyviruses have been reported from A. majus, to our knowledge, this represents the first report of ClYVV infection.

It has been suggested that cultivars require at least 60% resistant plants to afford maximum protection against disease. Our objective was to calculate heritability estimates of resistance to Verticillium wilt in alfalfa. Estimates were generated for two alfalfa populations developed from the cvs. Affinity + Z and Depend + EV. Heritability on a half-sib progeny means basis was calculated based on data from greenhouse pathogenicity tests. Estimates based on repeated experiments conducted for single years (2004 and 2005) were high for both populations, ranging from 0.86 to 0.92. The heritability estimate based on data collected over 2 years was 0.26 for Affinity + Z and 0.66 for Depend + EV. Disease was more severe in 2005 than in 2004. However, the Spearman rank correlation between mean disease severity index values for half-sib families over 2 years was positive and significant for both populations. Results of pathogenicity tests suggested that neither cultivar had resistance levels approaching 60%. The heritability estimates suggest that resistance levels in both Affinity + Z and Depend + EV could be improved further through selection.

In this paper, we demonstrate the proteolytic cleavage of human-derived peptides by PGI-LysAP of V. vulnificus using three approaches: (i) a quantitative fluorescent ninhydrin assay for free lysine, (ii) matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-two-stage time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-TOF), and (iii) Tricine gel electrophoresis. PGI-LysAP hydrolyzed bradykinin, Lys-bradykinin, Lys-(des-Arg super(9))-bradykinin, neurokinin A, Met-Lys-bradykinin, histatin 8, and a myosin light chain fragment. We detected the proteolytic release of free L-lysine from peptide digests using a rapid, simple, sensitive, and quantitative fluorescent ninhydrin assay, and results were confirmed by MALDI-TOF-TOF. The use of the fluorescent ninhydrin assay to quantitatively detect free lysine hydrolyzed from peptides is the first application of its kind and serves as a paradigm for future studies. The visualization of peptide hydrolysis was accomplished by Tricine gel electrophoresis. Proteolytic processing of kinins alters their affinities toward specific cellular receptors and initiates signal transduction mechanisms responsible for inflammation, vasodilation, and enhanced vascular permeability. By applying novel approaches to determine the proteolytic potential of bacterial enzymes, we demonstrate that PGI-LysAP has broad exopeptidase activity which may enhance V. vulnificus invasiveness by altering peptides involved in signal transduction pathways.

AN - 70694939; 16280196 AB - A sonication method for the homogeneous extraction of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) from the synganglia of adult ticks is described. The method provides for the extraction of sufficient AChE for multiple assays of enzyme activity in the presence of specific organophosphate (OP) inhibitors for the rapid diagnosis of OP-insensitivity and assignment of homozygous susceptible (SS), heterozygous resistant (RS), and homozygous resistant (RR) genotypes to individual ticks. A single synganglion from adult ticks of either gender and various stages of feeding can successfully be used for AChE extraction. The study presents the results of diagnostic screening of four Boophilus microplus strains for OP-insensitivity. The extraction method and these findings should find utility in support of researchers involved in the mitigation of acaricide resistance in tick populations worldwide, and in particular, the Cattle Fever Tick Surveillance and Quarantine Program maintained by USDA-APHIS/Veterinary Services along the south Texas border that prevents reentry of Boophilus spp. into the United States from endemic populations in Mexico.

AN - 70717682; 16262601 AB - Tristetraprolin (TTP) is a zinc-finger protein that binds to AREs (AU-rich elements) within certain mRNAs and causes destabilization of those mRNAs. Mice deficient in TTP develop a profound inflammatory syndrome with erosive arthritis, autoimmunity and myeloid hyperplasia. Previous studies showed that TTP is phosphorylated extensively in intact cells. However, limited information is available about the identities of these phosphorylation sites. We investigated the phosphorylation sites in human TTP from transfected HEK-293 cells by MS and site-directed mutagenesis. A number of phosphorylation sites including Ser66, Ser88, Thr92, Ser169, Ser186, Ser197, Ser218, Ser228, Ser276 and Ser296 were identified by MS analyses using MALDI (matrix-assisted laser-desorption-ionization)-MS, MALDI-tandem MS, LC (liquid chromatography)-tandem MS and multidimensional protein identification technology. Mutations of Ser197, Ser218 and Ser228 to alanine in the human protein significantly increased TTP's gel mobility (likely to be stoichiometric), whereas mutations at the other sites had little effect on its gel mobility. Dephosphorylation and in vivo labelling studies showed that mutant proteins containing multiple mutations were still phosphorylated, and all were able to bind to RNA probes containing AREs. Confocal microscopy showed a similar cytosolic localization of TTP among the various proteins. Ser197, Ser218 and Ser228 are predicted by motif scanning to be potential sites for protein kinase A, glycogen synthase kinase-3 and extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1 (both Ser218 and Ser228) respectively. The present study has identified multiple phosphorylation sites in the anti-inflammatory protein TTP in mammalian cells and should provide the molecular basis for further studies on the function and regulation of TTP in controlling pro-inflammatory cytokines.

AN - 67814018; 16572788 AB - The Community Multi-Scale Air Quality (CMAQ) modeling system was used to investigate ozone and aerosol concentrations in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) during hot summertime conditions during July 1-15, 1996. Two emission inventories (El) were developed: emissions for the first El were based upon the National Emission Trend 1996 (NET96) database and the BEIS2 biogenic emission model, and emissions for the second El were developed through a "bottom up" approach that included biogenic emissions obtained from the GLOBEIS model. The two simulations showed that elevated PM2.5 concentrations occurred near and downwind of the Interstate-5 corridor along the foothills of the Cascade Mountains and in forested areas of central Idaho. The relative contributions of organic and inorganic aerosols varied by region, but generally organic aerosols constituted the largest fraction of PM2.5. In wilderness areas near the 1-5 corridor, organic carbon from anthropogenic sources contributed approximately 50% of the total organic carbon with the remainder from biogenic precursors, while in wilderness areas in Idaho, biogenic organic carbon accounted for 80% of the total organic aerosol. Regional analysis of the secondary organic aerosol formation in the Columbia River Gorge, Central Idaho, and the Olympics/Puget Sound showed that the production rate of secondary organic carbon depends on local terpene concentrations and the local oxidizing capacity of the atmosphere, which was strongly influenced by anthropogenic emissions. Comparison with observations from 12 IMPROVE sites and 21 ozone monitoring sites showed that results from the two El simulations generally bracketed the average observed PM parameters and that errors calculated for the model results were within acceptable bounds. Analysis across all statistical parameters indicated that the NW-AIRQUEST El solution performed better at predicting PM2.5, PM1, and beta(ext) even though organic carbon PM was over-predicted, and the NET96 El solution performed better with regard to the inorganic aerosols. For the NW-AIRQUEST El solution, the normalized bias was 30% and the normalized absolute error was 49% for PM2.5 mass. The NW-AIRQUEST solution slightly overestimated peak hourly ozone downwind of urban areas, while the NET96 solution slightly underestimated peak values, and both solutions over-predicted average 03 concentrations across the domain by approximately 6 ppb.

By age 17 years, cherrybark oak was similar in height and diameter with sweetgum and by age 21 years was taller in height and larger in diameter than sweetgum depending on the spacing arrangement. The ascendance of cherrybark oak above sweetgum in an intimate plantation mixture confirms results from a stand reconstruction study of cherrybark oak and sweetgum development in natural stands. Afforestation of abandoned agricultural fields and pastures in the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley (LMAV) has received much attention in the past 20 years. A common afforestation prescription is to plant oaks on a 3.7mx3.7m spacing. Recently, concern has been expressed about planting only oaks (767 seedlingsha super(-) super(1)) and the resulting effects of early intra-specific competition following canopy closure. Recommendations have included planting a greater number of species in intimate mixtures, but little is known about how such stands would develop. Establishment of mixed-species hardwood plantations in the LMAV should be based on known stand development patterns, whether from other plantation trials or documented patterns in natural stands.

Riparian zones and other wetlands are known to remove N from ground and surface waters before they enter lakes and streams. However, the effect of riparian wetlands on water quality has been shown to differ dramatically among sites. Sources of landscape variation in riparian N dynamics have been poorly documented and rarely quantified. Within the Lake Tahoe Basin (LTB), we hypothesized that differences in riparian N dynamics correlate to differences in ecosystem type. To test this hypothesis, we randomly selected 20 plots, four each of five ecosystem types, along a tributary to Lake Tahoe. Throughout the snow-free season, we measured soil N transformations and groundwater chemistry in each plot. We found significant differences in denitrification potential, net mineralization, net nitrification and groundwater nutrient flux among different ecosystem types. These results suggest that classification of riparian zones into ecosystem types might be useful in predicting landscape differences in riparian water quality effects. We also tested for factors expected to directly and indirectly control riparian N process rates using data collected at each study site. Using correlation and multiple regression analysis, we found that N process rates were most highly correlated with different control factors according to ecosystem type. Differences in direct and indirect control factors among ecosystem types indicate that construction of mechanistic, landscape models of riparian processes might be most accurately done by stratifying the riparian zone into ecosystem types rather than by viewing it as a single, homogeneous part of the watershed.

(Diptera: Tephritidae) at various sites in Guatemala AN - 883046388; 15306127 AB - Area-wide control of the Mediterranean fruit fly (=medfly), Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), typically involves sterile insect technique (=SIT), and at present the "Temperature Sensitive Lethal" (=TSL) strain is commonly mass-reared for such releases. In theory, and with some experimental support, the augmentative addition of parasitoids to sterile releases can suppress pest populations to a greater extent than either technique alone. The efficacies of TSL males, parasitoids, and TSL males and parasitoids were compared in large field cages erected over coffee grown at four locations and three altitudes (relatively high, medium and low for the crop) in Guatemala. Two species of opiine braconid parasitoids, the larval-pupal parasitoid Diachasmimorpha krausii (Fullaway) and the egg-pupal parasitoid Fopius arisanus (Sonan), were released either together or in combination with sterile males into cages along with fertile medflies. Results of this evaluation were assessed by comparing the number of pupae and adult insects that completed development (F1 generation) as a result of the reproduction of a parental generation released into each field cage. The TSL males significantly suppressed F1 fly populations but only in one of four study sites. However, the inclusion of F. arisanus and D. krausii always provided significant suppression and the effect was frequently substantial. In one site there was a significant interaction between the capacity of sterile males and parasitoids to suppress caged fly populations. There was no effect of host-fruit abundance on the numbers of flies recovered, however, there were significant interactions between maximum and minimum temperatures and the effects of sterile males and parasitoids, respectively. The results suggest that mass-reared sterile medflies and biological control agents should be tested for both consistent sexual-quality and their ability to perform in the various environments in which they will be released.

The effect of chemical and physical variation of the leaves of two chemotypes of the weed Melaleuca quinquenervia was determined on the biomass and fecundity of the biological control agent Oxyops vitiosa (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). M. quinquenervia chemotypes were distinguished by the principal terpenoids E-nerolidol and viridiflorol using gas chromatography and mass spectroscopy. Not only were the terpenoid profiles of the two chemotypes different but the viridiflorol leaves had greater toughness (1.2-fold) and reduced nitrogen (0.7-fold). When the larvae and adults were fed leaves of the E-nerolidol chemotype increased adult biomass (1.1-fold) and fecundity were found (2.6- to 4.5-fold) compared with those fed leaves of the viridiflorol chemotype. Regardless of the larval diet, when adults were fed the E-nerolidol chemotype leaves they had greater egg production compared with those adults fed the viridiflorol leaves. Moreover, adult pre-oviposition period was extended (1.5-fold) when individuals were fed the viridiflorol leaves compared with those fed the E-nerolidol leaves. By rearing the O. vitiosa weevil on the more nutritious chemotype plants these results assisted in the mass production and establishment of the M. quinquenervia biological control agent.

However, development of a biodegradable base fluid that could replace or partially substitute conventional mineral oil is a big challenge. Vegetable oils are recognized as rapidly biodegradable and are thus promising candidates as base fluids in environment-friendly lubricants. Vegetble oils have excellent lubricity, but poor oxidation and low-temeprature stability. This paper presents a series of structural modifications of vegetable oils using anhydrides of different chain lengths. The reaction was monitored and products were confirmed by NMR, FTIR, gel permeation chromatography, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Experimental conditions were optimized for research quantity and for laboratory scale-up (up to 4 lb=1.8 kg). The thermo-oxidation stability of these new lubricant base fluids was tested using pressure differential scanning calorimetry and TGA. The chemically modified base fluids exhibit superior oxidation stability in comparison with unmodified vegetable oils. These base fluids in combination with suitable additives exhibit equivalent oxidation stability compared with mineral oil-based formulations.

AN - 70683709; 16339502 AB - Plasma high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels are inversely correlated with the risk of developing coronary heart disease. Hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) affects plasma HDL cholesterol levels, with estrogen increasing HDL cholesterol levels and progestins blunting this effect. This study was designed to assess the mechanism responsible for these effects. HDL apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) kinetics were studied in 8 healthy postmenopausal women participating in a double-blind, randomized, crossover study comprising 3 phases: placebo, conjugated equine estrogen (CEE) (0.625 mg/d), and CEE plus medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) (2.5 mg/d). Compared with placebo, treatment with CEE resulted in an increase in apoA-I pool size (+20%, P<0.01) because of a significant increase in apoA-I production rate (+47%, P<0.05) and no significant changes in apoA-I fractional catabolic rate. Compared with the CEE alone phase, treatment with the CEE plus MPA resulted in an 8% (P<0.02) reduction in apoA-I pool size and a significant reduction in apoA-I production rate (-13%, P<0.04), without changes in apoA-I fractional catabolic rate. Postmenopausal estrogen replacement increases apoA-I levels and production rate. When progestin is added to estrogen, it opposes these effects by reducing the production of apoA-I.

AN - 67902888; 16555136 AB - Both biotic and abiotic selection pressures can contribute to geographic variation in allelochemical production in plants. We examined furanocoumarin production in western North American populations of Heracleum lanatum and Pastinaca sativa that, at different latitudes and altitudes, experience different ultraviolet (UV) light regimes. Total furanocoumarins and linear furanocoumarins of fruits were negatively correlated with UV irradiance, whereas amounts of angular furanocoumarins, which are generally less phototoxic, were not. Another factor potentially influencing furanocoumarin production is the presence of the parsnip webworm Depressaria pastinacella, (Lepidoptera: Oecophoridae), an herbivore that feeds on reproductive structures of both plant species. These insects sequester lutein from their host plants; this carotenoid acts to ameliorate furanocoumarin toxicity. Although the concentration of lutein in fruits did not vary with UV irradiance, lutein sequestration by sixth instars was positively correlated with UV irradiance. Webworm populations are variably infested with the polyembryonic webworm parasitoid Copidosoma sosares Walker (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae). H. lanatum fruits from populations with webworms parasitized by C. sosares had lower concentrations of furanocoumarins, with the exception of sphondin, than fruits from plants infested with webworms free from parasitism. Lower levels of these furanocoumarins may reduce negative effects on the fitness of this parasitoid. In contrast with the variation in furanocoumarin content, the ability of webworms to metabolize furanocoumarins by cytochrome P450 did not differ significantly among populations from New Mexico to Alberta.

AN - 67820079; 16573346 AB - A geophone system was used to monitor activity of subterranean termites and ants in a desert environment with low vibration noise. Examples of geophone signals were recorded from a colony of Rhytidoponera taurus (Forel), a colony of Camponotus denticulatus Kirby, and a termite colony (undetermined Drepanotermes sp.) under attack by ants from a nearby C. denticulatus colony. The geophone recordings were compared with signals recorded from accelerometers in a citrus grove containing Solenopsis invicta Buren workers. Because of their small size, all of these insects produce relatively weak sounds. Several different types of insect-generated sounds were identified in the geophone recordings, including high-frequency ticks produced by R. taurus and C. denticulatus, and patterned bursts of head bangs produced by Drepanotermes. The S. invicta produced bursts of ticks with three different stridulation frequencies, possibly produced by three different-sized workers. Overall, both systems performed well in enabling identification of high-frequency or patterned pulses. The geophone was more sensitive than the accelerometer to low-frequency signals, but low-frequency insect sound pulses are more difficult to distinguish from background noises than high-frequency pulses. The low cost of multiple-geophone systems may facilitate development of future applications for wide-area subterranean insect monitoring in quiet environments.

AN - 67730072; 16523609 AB - Twenty-eight flocks were grown on litter in a tunnel-ventilated, curtain-sided commercial broiler house prior to this summer flock. Grid measurements were made using a photo-acoustic multigas analyzer to assess the spatial variability of litter gases (NH3, N2O, CO2, and CH4) on d 1 and 21. The pooled results for the brood and non-brood areas of the house were 1) NH3 flux was greatest in the brood area at d 1, averaging 497 mg/(m2 x h), and had a mean of 370 mg/(m2 x h) in the vacant end of the house; 2) at d 21, the non-brood area had the greater average NH3 flux, 310 mg/(m2 x h), and flux in the brood area was 136 mg/(m2 x h); 3) N2O and CH4 fluxes were <60 mg/(m2 x h); and 4) on d 1, brood CO2 flux was 6,190 mg/(m2 x h) compared with 5,490 mg/ (m2 x h) at the opposite end of the house. On d 21, these values increased to 6,540 and 9,684 mg/(m2 x h) for the brood and non-brood areas. Ammonia flux seemed most affected by litter temperature. Carbon dioxide and CH4 increased from placement to mid growout, corresponding to increased moisture, especially near the fans. Contour plots were developed using geostatistical software to visually assess the spatial disparity among the measurements. This research provides a unique view of gas flux variation within the house. Collinear factors such as house management, bird size and age, and amount of deposition are significant factors for litter gas flux and should be considered in comprehensive models for emission estimates.

AN - 67725313; 16200410 AB - Preharvest aflatoxin contamination has been identified by the peanut industry as a serious issue in food safety and human health because of the carcinogenic toxicity. Drought stress is the most important environmental factor exacerbating Aspergillus infection and aflatoxin contamination in peanut. The development of drought-tolerant peanut cultivars could reduce aflatoxin contamination and would represent a major advance in the peanut industry. In this study, we identified a novel PLD gene in peanut (Arachis hypogaea), encoding a putative phospholipase D (PLD, EC 3.1.4.4). The completed cDNA sequence was obtained by using the consensus-degenerated hybrid oligonucleotide primer strategy. The deduced amino acid sequence shows high identity with known PLDs, and has similar conserved domains. The PLD gene expression under drought stress has been studied using four peanut lines: Tifton 8 and A13 (both drought tolerant) and Georgia Green (moderate) and PI 196754 (drought sensitive). Northern analysis showed that PLD gene expression was induced faster by drought stress in the drought-sensitive lines than the drought tolerance lines. Southern analysis showed that cultivated peanut has multiple copies (3 to 5 copies) of the PLD gene. These results suggest that peanut PLD may be involved in drought sensitivity and tolerance responses. Peanut PLD gene expression may be useful as a tool in germplasm screening for drought tolerance.

AN - 67694003; 16496587 AB - Because of the escape of highly contaminated gut contents from the cloaca of positive carcasses, Campylobacter numbers recovered from broiler carcass skin samples increase during automated feather removal. Vinegar is known to have antimicrobial action. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of vinegar placed in the cloaca prior to feather removal on the numbers of Campylobacter recovered from broiler breast skin. Broilers were stunned, killed, and bled in a pilot processing plant. Vinegar was placed in the colons of the chickens prior to scalding. Carcasses were scalded, and Campylobacter numbers were determined on breast skin before and after passage through a commercial-style feather-picking machine. Campylobacter numbers recovered from the breast skin of untreated control carcasses increased during feather removal from 1.3 log CFU per sample prior to defeathering to 4.2 log afterward. Placement of water in the colon before scalding had no effect on Campylobacter numbers. Campylobacter numbers recovered from the breast skin of carcasses treated with vinegar also increased during defeathering but to a significantly lesser extent. Treated carcasses experienced only a 1-log increase from 1.6 log CFU per sample before feather removal to 2.6 log CFU per sample afterward. Application of an effective food-grade antimicrobial in the colon prior to scald can limit the increase in Campylobacter contamination of broiler carcasses during defeathering.

AN - 67643476; 16415214 AB - The existence of nickel (Ni) deficiency is becoming increasingly apparent in crops, especially for ureide-transporting woody perennials, but its physiological role is poorly understood. We evaluated the concentrations of ureides, amino acids, and organic acids in photosynthetic foliar tissue from Ni-sufficient (Ni-S) versus Ni-deficient (Ni-D) pecan (Carya illinoinensis [Wangenh.] K. Koch). Foliage of Ni-D pecan seedlings exhibited metabolic disruption of nitrogen metabolism via ureide catabolism, amino acid metabolism, and ornithine cycle intermediates. Disruption of ureide catabolism in Ni-D foliage resulted in accumulation of xanthine, allantoic acid, ureidoglycolate, and citrulline, but total ureides, urea concentration, and urease activity were reduced. Disruption of amino acid metabolism in Ni-D foliage resulted in accumulation of glycine, valine, isoleucine, tyrosine, tryptophan, arginine, and total free amino acids, and lower concentrations of histidine and glutamic acid. Ni deficiency also disrupted the citric acid cycle, the second stage of respiration, where Ni-D foliage contained very low levels of citrate compared to Ni-S foliage. Disruption of carbon metabolism was also via accumulation of lactic and oxalic acids. The results indicate that mouse-ear, a key morphological symptom, is likely linked to the toxic accumulation of oxalic and lactic acids in the rapidly growing tips and margins of leaflets. Our results support the role of Ni as an essential plant nutrient element. The magnitude of metabolic disruption exhibited in Ni-D pecan is evidence of the existence of unidentified physiological roles for Ni in pecan.

AN - 67636366; 16463093 AB - Pearl millet is widely consumed in regions of Africa and Asia, and is increasingly being grown as an alternative grain in drought-prone regions of the United States. Pearl millet and corn were grown in dryland conditions at Tifton, Georgia, USA and grains were compared for pre-harvest infection by potentially toxigenic fungi and contamination by mycotoxins. Corn hybrids Agripro 9909 and Pioneer 3146, and pearl millet Tifgrain 102 were grown in 2000 and 2001; pearl millet HGM 100 was included in the test in 2001. Hybrids were sown on multiple planting dates in each year to induce variation in flowering time. Host species differed in the frequency of isolation of potentially toxigenic fungal species in both years. Across years, corn hybrids were more prone to infection by Aspergillus flavus Link (maximum isolation frequency = 8.8%) and Fusarium moniliforme Sheldon sensu lato (maximum isolation frequency = 72.8%), with corresponding greater concentrations of aflatoxins (maximum concentration = 204.9 microg kg(-1)) and fumonisins (maximum concentration = 34,039 microg kg(-1)). Pearl millet was more prone to infection by F. semitectum Berk. & Ravenel (maximum isolation = 74.2%) and F. chlamydosporum Wollenweb & Reinking (maximum isolation = 33.0%), and contamination by moniliformin (maximum contamination = 92.1 microg kg(-1)). Beauvericin (maximum concentration = 414.6 microg kg(-1)) was present in both hosts. Planting date of corn affected aflatoxin and beauvericin contamination in 2000, and fumonisin concentration in 2001. The observed differences in mycotoxin contamination of the grains, which are likely due to host-specific differences in susceptibility to pre-harvest mycoflora, may affect food safety when the crops are grown under stress conditions.

There are several motivations for understanding this relationship. First, the United States has experienced a significant increase in the extent of urbanized land. Second, urban foresters increasingly recognize their need for data about urban forestry types, owners and property regimes, and associated social goods, benefits, and services. Third, previous research has focused primarily on the distribution of vegetation cover or diversity. However, little is known about (1,) whether vegetation structure varies among urban neighborhoods and (2) whether the motivations, pathways, and capacities for vegetation management vary among households and communities. In this article, we describe novel data and methods from Baltimore, MD, and the Baltimore Ecosystem Study (BES) to address these two questions. Adapted from the source document.

Building upon one of these efforts undertaken jointly by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the purpose of this work was to expand on the consumer phase of the risk assessment to focus on handling practices in the home. One-dimensional Monte Carlo simulation was used to model variability in growth and cross-contamination of L. monocytogenes during food storage and preparation of deli meats. Simulations approximated that 0.3% of the servings were contaminated with > 104 CFU/g of L. monocytogenes at the time of consumption. The estimated mean risk associated with the consumption of deli meats for the intermediate-age population was approximately 7 deaths per 1011 servings Food handling in homes increased the estimated mean mortality by 106-fold. Of all the home food-handling practices modeled, inadequate storage, particularly refrigeration temperatures, provided the greatest contribution to increased risk. The impact of cross-contamination in the home was considerably less. Adherence to USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service recommendations for consumer handling of ready-to-eat foods substantially reduces the risk of listeriosis.

An empirical evaluation AN - 36504964; 3319225 AB - This analysis utilizes farm-level data to evaluate the extent to which U.S. farm program benefits, particularly direct payments, bring about distortions in production. The issue is important in WTO negotiations and and in the debate over the distortionary effects of decoupled ('green-box') payments. Our results suggest that the distortions brought about by AMTA payments, though statistically significant in some cases, are very modest. Larger effects are implied for market loss assistance payments. Probit models suggest that AMTA payments do not influence the likelihood that agents will acquire more land.

Fed-batch fermentations of Candida bombicola resulted in SL yields of 46 c 4 g/l, 42 c 7 g/l and 18 c 6 g/l from Me-Soy, Et-Soy, and Pro-Soy, respectively. Liquid chromatography with atmospheric pressure ionization mass spectrometry (LC/API-MS) showed that Me-Soy resulted in 71% open-chain SLs with 59% of those molecules remaining esterified at the carboxyl end of the fatty acids. Et-Soy and Pro-Soy resulted in 43% and 80% open-chain free-acid SLs, respectively (containing linoleic acid and oleic acid as the principal fatty acid species linked to the sophorose sugar at the omega-1 position), with no evidence of residual esterification.

We hypothesized that such problems could be minimized by using a knifing technique to move the fertilizer granules into the subsurface root zone of perennial forages, and conducted a study to determine the effect on runoff water quality. Plots were constructed on a hillside (8 to 10 percent slope) field with a silt loam soil covered by well-established bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] and mixed grass forage. Each plot had borders to isolate runoff and a downslope trough with sampling pit for collection. Inorganic 13-13-13 fertilizer granules were applied at 1.34 Mg ha super(-1) (0.6 t ac super(-1)) by one of three methods: surface spreading, incorporation, or surface spreading on soil cuts. Each treatment had six replications and there were three control plots that were not fertilized. Runoff samples from simulated rainfall applied at 50 mm h super(-1) (2 in hr super(-1)) and natural rainfall events showed that nutrient losses in runoff from incorporated fertilizer were statistically no higher than from control plots, but were usually at least 90 percent less than those from surface-applied fertilizer. Soil cuts slightly decreased nutrient losses from surface-applied fertilizer, but this effect was rarely significant. When compared to surface-applied fertilizer, the incorporated fertilizer not only improved water quality, but also showed a strong tendency to increase forage yield.

Pine monoterpenes occur in the oleoresin and function as behaviorally active kairomones for pine bark beetles and their predators, presenting a classic example of tri-trophic chemical communication. The monoterpenes are also essential co-attractants for pine bark beetle aggregation pheromones. Ironically, pine monoterpenes are also toxic physiologically to bark beetles at high vapor concentrations and are considered an important component of the defense of pines. Research over the last 30 years has demonstrated that some bark beetle aggregation pheromones arise through oxygenation of monoterpenes, linking pheromone biosynthesis to the host pines. Over the last 10 years, however, several frequently occurring oxygenated monoterpene pheromone components (e.g., ipsenol, ipsdienol and frontalin) have also been shown to arise through highly regulated de novo pathways in the beetles (reviewed in Seybold and Tittiger, 2003). The most interesting nexus between these insects and their plant hosts involves the late-stage reactions in the monoterpenoid biosynthetic pathway, during which isomeric dimethylallyl diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate are ultimately elaborated to stereospecific monoterpenes in the trees and to hydroxylated monoterpenes or bicyclic acetals in the insects. There is signal stereospecificity in both production of and response to the monoterpenoid aggregation pheromones of bark beetles and in response to the monoterpenes of the pines. In the California fivespined ips, Ips paraconfusus, we have discovered a number of cytochome P450 genes that have expression patterns indicating that they may be involved in detoxifying monoterpene secondary metabolites and/or biosynthesizing pheromone components. Both processes result in the production of oxygenated monoterpenes, likely with varying degrees of stereospecificity. A behavioral analysis of the stereospecific response of I. paraconfusus to its pheromone is providing new insights into the development of an efficacious bait for the detection of this polyphagous insect in areas outside the western United States. In contrast, a Eurasian species that has arrived in California, the Mediterranean pine engraver, Orthotomicus (Ips) erosus, utilizes both a monoterpenoid (ipsdienol) and a hemiterpenoid (2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol) in its pheromone blend. The stereospecificity of the response of O. erosus to the monoterpenoid appears to be the key factor to the improved potency of the attractant bait for this invasive species.

The objective of this study was to determine how algal productivity, nutrient removal efficiency, and elemental composition of turf algae change in response to different loading rates of raw swine manure effluent. Algal biomass was harvested weekly from laboratory scale algal turf scrubber units using four manure effluent loading rates (0.24, 0.40, 0.62 and 1.2 L m super(-2) d super(-1)) corresponding to daily loading rates of 0.3-1.4 g total N and 0.08-0.42 g total P. Mean algal productivity values increased from 7.1 g DW m super(-2) d super(-1) at the lowest loading rate (0.24 L m super(-2) d super(-1)) to 9.4 g DW m super(-2) d super(-1) at the second loading rate (0.40 L m super(-2) d super(-1)). At these loading rates, algal N and P accounted for> 90% of input N and 68-76% of input P, respectively. However, at higher loading rates algal productivity did not increase and was unstable at the highest loading rate. Mean N and P contents in the dried biomass increased 1.5 to 2.0-fold with increasing loading rate up to maximums of 5.7% N and 1.8% P at 1.2 L m super(-2) d super(-1). Biomass concentrations of Al, Ca, Cd, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Mo, Si, and Zn increased 1.2 to 2.6-fold over the 5-fold range of loading rate. Biomass concentrations of Cd, K, Pb, and Si did not increase significantly with loading rate. At the loading rate of 0.40 L m super(-2) d super(-1) (corresponding to peak productivity) the mean concentrations of individual components in the algal biomass were (in mg kg super(-1)): 250 (Al), 4900 (Ca), 0.30 (Cd), 1050 (Fe), 3.4 (Pb), 2500 (Mg), 105 (Mn), 6.0 (Mo), 7,500 (K), and 510 (Zn). At these concentrations, heavy metals in the algal biomass would not be expected to reduce its value as a soil or feed amendment.

Two additional requirements that are necessary before Brachypodium can be widely accepted as a model system are an efficient transformation system and homogeneous inbred reference genotypes. Here we describe the development of inbred lines from 27 accessions of Brachypodium. Determination of c-values indicated that five of the source accessions were diploid. These diploid lines exhibit variation for a variety of morphological traits. Conditions were identified that allow generation times as fast as two months in the diploids. An Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol was developed and used to successfully transform 10 of the 19 lines tested with efficiencies ranging from 0.4% to 15%. The diploid accession Bd21 was readily transformed. Segregation of transgenes in the T sub(1) generation indicated that most of the lines contained an insertion at a single genetic locus. The new resources and methodologies reported here will advance the development and utilization of Brachypodium as a new model system for grass genomics.

Laboratory studies have indicated that plant oils with antimicrobial activity can be used to control pathogens and odor emissions from cattle and swine wastes. However, these oils are aromatic and may volatilize when applied topically. Our objectives were to evaluate the volatility of thymol from a feedlot surface and the effectiveness of topically applying thyme oil (2.5% thymol), incorporated into corncob granules and added once per week, to control odor emissions and total coliforms in feedlot manure. In the first study, thymol either volatilized or was degraded within 28 d after topical application. In a second study, thyme oil (2.5% thymol) was incorporated into corncobs and applied to pen surfaces weekly. Manure samples from 6 locations in each pen were collected from 3 untreated and 3 thymol-corncob-treated pens (15 x 150 m; fifty 400-kg cattle/pen), 3 times per week for 8 wk. Samples were analyzed for thymol concentration, total VFA, branched-chain VFA, aromatic compounds, and the number of Escherichia coli and total coliform bacteria. Over the 8 wk, with the exception of wk 7, the desired thymol concentration of 15 to 20 mu mol/g DM was maintained in the manure. Concentrations of VFA and branched chain-VFA increased over time in untreated and treated pens. However, the rate of VFA accumulation in treated pens (7.5 plus or minus 1.3 mu mol.g DM super(-1).wk super(-1)) was less (P < 0.01) than the rate of accumulation in untreated pens (18.0 plus or minus 2.1 mu mol.g DM super(-1).wk super(-1)). Likewise, the rate of branched-chain VFA accumulation in treated pens (0.31 plus or minus 0.04 mu mol.g DM super(-1).wk super(-1)) was less (P < 0.01) than in untreated pens (0.55 plus or minus 0.06 mu mol.g DM super(-1).wk super(1)). The concentrations of E. coli in treated pens (2.9 plus or minus 1.2 x 10 super(5) cfu.g DM super(-1)) were 91% less (P < 0.04) than in untreated pens (31.1 plus or minus 4.0 x 10 super(5) cfu.g DM super(-1)). Similarly, concentrations of coliforms in treated pens (3.7 plus or minus 1.3 x 10 super(5) cfu.g DM super(-1)) were 89% less (P < 0.04) than those of untreated pens (35.3 plus or minus 4.2 x 10 super(5) cfu.g DM super(-1)). These results indicate that odor emissions and total coliforms can be reduced in feedlot manure with a once per week application of thymol incorporated in a granular form. However, corncobs are bulky, and other granular carriers with a greater carrying capacity for thyme oil should be explored.

This fruit-attacking curculionid is reported to have a broad host range, including many plants in the Rosaceae and other families. However, our collections indicated that in this region plum curculio largely is limited to peach (Prunus persica) and plum (P. angustifolia and P. umbellata). Abandoned peach orchards and wild plum thickets are important hosts for the spring generation of plum curculio and are sources of subsequent infestations of managed peach orchards. However, only abandoned peach orchards were available to the summer generation of plum curculio. May haw, Crataegus aestivalis, was also a host, but other species of Crataegus were not used. Although the plum curculio was reported to be a significant pest of blueberries (Vaccinium spp.) in North Carolina, New Jersey, and Delaware, they were only rarely used as a host in central Georgia. Apple (Malus domestica) and Asian pear (Pyrus pyrifolia), when available, were ovipositional hosts of plum curculio in central Georgia; however, no larvae emerged from these hosts. We report the first records of plum curculio developing in Vaccinium stamineum and Vitis rotundifolia. Our results are compared with a previous survey conducted in the northeastern United States, as well as to data reported in the literature.

However, some stands remain living more than a decade after infestation. To date, this has been attributed to site and climatic variables. This multi-tiered study examines the role foliar chemistry may play in A. tsugae success and subsequent hemlock decline. Comparisons of resistant and susceptible hemlock species indicate higher concentrations of P and lower concentrations of N in resistant species. On experimentally colonized hemlocks, the numbers of live sistens present after two A. tsugae generations was correlated with higher K and lower P concentrations. A regional T. canadensis monitoring effort showed that concentrations of Ca, K, N, and P were most strongly correlated with A. tsugae densities, which was the driving factor in hemlock decline. From the results of this study, we hypothesize that higher N and K concentrations may enhance hemlock palatability, thereby increasing A. tsugae population levels, whereas higher concentrations of Ca and P may deter more severe infestations. Foliar chemistry alone can explain over one-half of the variability in hemlock decline witnessed at 45 monitoring plots across the northeastern United States. Combining chemistry and traditional site factors, an 11-class decline rating could be predicted with 98% 1-class tolerance accuracy on an independent validation set. These results suggest that foliar chemistry may play a role in eastern hemlock susceptibility to A. tsugae infestation and should be included in risk assessment models.

Between 1997 and 2000, the animal arm of the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System-Enteric Bacteria (NARMS) assayed a total of 22 383 Salmonella isolates from various animal sources (swine, cattle, chickens, turkeys, cats, horses, exotics and dogs) for antimicrobial susceptibility. Isolates originated from diagnostic and non-diagnostic submissions. OBJECTIVES: To study the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of Salmonella Niakhar. METHODS: and results: Only five (0.02%) of the 22 383 isolates were identified as Salmonella Niakhar. Antimicrobial resistance testing indicated that three isolates were pan-susceptible, one isolate was resistant to ampicillin and one isolate was resistant to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, kanamycin, nalidixic acid, streptomycin, sulfamethoxazole, tetracycline and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole. RAPD-PCR analysis, PFGE and ribotyping indicated that two pan-susceptible isolates were genetically similar, whereas the three remaining isolates were genetically different. The one Salmonella Niakhar isolate that was multiresistant harboured a class I integron, intI1 and two large plasmids. CONCLUSIONS: This study represents the first report of a ciprofloxacin-resistant Salmonella isolate from the animal arm of NARMS.

As part of a long-term study, we examined post-fledging and post-independence survival of 89 radio-marked juvenile Northern Goshawks (Accipiter gentilis) produced from 48 nests in northern Arizona, USA, during 1998-2001. Information-theoretic methods were used to examine within- and among-year variation in survival relative to environmental (prey abundance, weather), territory (hatching date, brood size), and individual (gender, body mass) sources of variation. The results support age- and cohort-specific differences in survival that were best explained by behaviors occurring at distinct stages of juvenile development, annual changes in the density of primary bird and mammal prey species, and gender-related differences in body mass. Survival between fledging and independence increased linearly with age and varied among annual cohorts of radio-marked juveniles from 0.81 (95% CI = 0.60-0.93) to 1.00 (95% CI = 0.95-1.00) in association with annual differences in prey density; the slope coefficient for the additive effect of prey density on survival was 1.12 (95% CI = 0.06-2.19). Survival declined to 0.71 (95% CI = 0.60-0.93) shortly after juveniles initiated dispersal (weeks 8-12 post-fledging) and moved to more open habitats at lower elevations. Survival was not closely associated with weather or territory-level parameters. A comparison of the predictions of environmental-, territory-, and individual-based models of survival demonstrated that food availability was the primary factor limiting juvenile survival. This finding indicates that forest management prescriptions designed to support abundant prey. populations while providing forest structural conditions that allow goshawks to access their prey within breeding areas should benefit juvenile survival.

Three groups of trypsin- (OnT25, OnT23, and OnT3) and two chymotrypsin-like (OnC1 and OnC2) cDNAs were isolated from O. nubilalis midgut tissue. Intraspecific groupings are based on cDNA similarity and peptide phylogeny. Derived serine proteases showed a catalytic triad (His, Asp, and Ser; except transcript OnT23a), three substrate specificity-determining residues, and three paired disulphide bonds.

We obtained yields of 1.5 g cell dry weight (CDW)/l culture with growth medium supplemented with 2% (w/v) soy molasses, and of an average of 3.4 g CDW/l with 5% (w/v) soy molasses. Crude PHAs were obtained at 5-17% of CDW. The most prominent repeat-unit monomers in the PHAs were 3-hydroxydodecanoate, 3-hydroxyoctanoate, 3-hydroxydodecanoate, and 3-hydroxytetradecenoate. This work represents the first description of fermentative mcl-PHA production from the soy molasses.

It is a high input crop with complex quality requirements at harvest and during storage. Potato breeders are fortunate to have access to a very diverse and accessible germplasm resource. Wild Solanum relatives provide genetic diversity as well as genes for valuable production and quality traits. In most cases, crossing success can be predicted based on endosperm balance number (EBN), or effective ploidy, of the parents. Crossing barriers between most wild species and the cultivated potato are the consequence of differences in EBN and can be easily overcome using ploidy manipulations and bridge crosses. The most common ploidy manipulations include haploid extraction to reduce EBN and 2n gamete production to increase EBN. Additional methods to produce fertile interspecific hybrids include mentor pollination, embryo rescue, hormone treatments, reciprocal crosses, selection of cross-compatible genotypes and somatic fusion. Knowledge of crossing barriers and mechanisms to overcome them allows potato breeders access to the rich gene pool in the genus Solanum.

The number of cereal aphids per tiller, wheat plant growth stage, and wheat tiller density also were estimated. A total of 12 genera representing 13 species of beetles were collected from the field. The density of rove beetles was generally low, ranging from 0.003 beetles per m super(2) in fall to 0.106 beetles per m super(2) in spring. Rove beetle communities differed among seasons. After accounting for the effect of season, there was no statistically significant association between rove beetle community structure and field location, aphid density, wheat plant growth stage, or wheat plant density. Most rove beetle species showed no association with a particular season, however, Aleochara notula Erichson, Lathrobium sp., and Oxypoda sp. were present predominantly in fall, while Bisnius inquitus Erichson was associated with winter. Oxypoda sp. was the most abundant rove beetle in winter wheat fields in spring and was relatively abundant in winter, but was not collected from wheat fields in fall. Tachyporus jocosus Say was present in wheat fields during all seasons. T. jocosus was the most abundant rove beetle species in the winter wheat fields in fall and winter and was the second most abundant species during spring.

Previous studies found that three enzymes, encoded by verA, ver-1, and aflY, are required for conversion of versicolorin A (VA), to demethylsterigmatocystin. We now show that a fourth enzyme, encoded by the previously uncharacterized gene, aflX (ordB), is also required for this conversion. A homolog of this gene, stcQ, is present in the A. nidulans sterigmatocystin (ST) biosynthesis cluster. Disruption of aflX in Aspergillus flavus gave transformants that accumulated similar to 4-fold more VA and fourfold less aflatoxin than the untransformed strain. Southern and Northern blot analyses confirmed that aflX was the only gene disrupted in these transformants. Feeding ST or O-methylsterigmatocystin, but not VA or earlier precursor metabolites, restored normal levels of AF production. The protein encoded by aflX is predicted to have domains typical of an NADH-dependent oxidoreductase. It has 27% amino acid identity to a protein encoded by the aflatoxin cluster gene, aflO (avfA). Some of domains in the protein are similar to those of epoxide hydrolases.

Limited data are available, however, on the post-fire growth of riparian species and the influence of herbivory on regeneration. To determine post-fire regrowth of riparian vegetation, height, crown area, crown volume, and browse levels were measured for key riparian shrub species in streamside burned and unburned plots along second-order streams in western Wyoming. Shrubs in the burned plots were subject to high levels of browse - up to 84 percent of the leaders were browsed - by native ungulates in 2002, the second post-fire year (September 2001 to September 2002). In summer 2003, the burned watershed was also grazed by livestock, resulting in increased browse levels and decreased shrub heights for several species. In the third post-fire year, September 2002 to September 2003, four of the six most common species showed no increase in crown area or crown volume, indicating that the combination of native ungulate and cattle browsing suppressed their growth. Potential impacts of grazing on post-fire recovery of stream and riparian ecosystems are discussed.

The prevalence of T. gondii in 225 free-range chickens (Gallus domesticus) from Portugal was determined. Antibodies to T. gondii were assayed by the modified agglutination test (MAT) and found in 61 chickens with titers of 1:5 in 8, 1:10 in 6, 1:20 in 3, 1:40 in 23, 1:80 in 5, 1:160 in 4, 1:320 in 8, and 1:640 or higher in 4. Hearts, leg muscles, and brains of 15 seropositive (MAT 1:10 or higher) chickens were bioassayed individually in mice. Tissue from 38 chickens with titers of 1:5 or less were pooled and fed to a T. gondii-free cat. Feces of the cat were examined for oocysts, but none was found. Toxoplasma gondii was isolated from 16 of 19 chickens with MAT titers of 1:10 or higher. Genotyping of 12 of these 16 isolates with polymorphisms at the SAG2 locus indicated that 4 were type III, and 8 were type II. None of the isolates was lethal for mice. Phenotypically, T. gondii isolates from chickens from Portugal were different from those of T. gondii isolates from chickens from Brazil.

The modified APEX was validated with data from feedlots near Bushland, Texas, and Carrington, North Dakota. The model was used to investigate feedlot management options on a hypothetical feedlot with realistic data. Vegetative filter strip (VFS) characteristics including 10%, 25%, 50%, and 100% FLRs (flow length ratios, i.e., filter flow length/feedlot flow length) and slopes of 1%, 5%, and 10% were considered. Combinations of these VFS characteristics were compared on two soil types: clay loam and fine sandy loam. Management options included three stocking rates (10, 15, and 20 m super(2) head super(-1)) and two clean-out intervals (90 and 180 d). Additionally, two climatic conditions (precipitation of 440 and 825 mm year super(-1)) were simulated. Results from 50-year simulations indicate that a VFS downslope of the feedlot can greatly reduce nutrient loads. All three VFS characteristics (FLR, slope, and soil) were important in controlling organic N and P losses. The best organic N and P control was obtained from a VFS with maximum FLR (100%), minimum slope (1%), and a sandy loam soil. Results were similar for soluble N and P control except that VFS slope had little effect. The simulated management options (clean-out interval and stocking rate) were also effective in controlling nutrient losses. The climatic variable (annual precipitation) gave higher nutrient losses from the feedlot and the VFS with 825 mm than with 440 mm. Nutrient control efficiencies, CEs, 100.* (1.0 - nutrient loss from VFS / nutrient loss from feedlot) were calculated for all scenarios considered. The VFSs on sandy loam soil with FLRs equal to or greater than 50% gave the highest CEs for both soluble and organic nutrients. Other factors including VFS slope, clean-out interval, and stocking rate had marginal impacts on CE. For soluble nutrients, CE is inversely related to annual precipitation. Thus, it is important to locate feedlots in areas with low precipitation and to provide a well designed VFS. The APEX model with the new manure erosion equation provides a tool for designing VFSs for controlling nutrient losses from feedlots.

AN - 19465823; 7025495 AB - Xylan is the major component of hemicellulose, and xylan should be fully utilized to improve the efficiencies of a biobased economy. There are a variety of industrial reaction conditions in which an active xylanase enzyme would be desired. As a result, xylanase enzymes with different activity profiles are of great interest. We isolated a xylanase gene (xyn10) from a Flavobacterium sp. whose sequence suggests that it is a glycosyl hydrolase family 10 member. The enzyme has a temperature optimum of 30 degree C, is active at cold temperatures, and is thermolabile. The enzyme has an apparent K sub(m) of 1.8 mg/ml and k sub(cat) of 100 sec super(-1) for beechwood xylan, attacks highly branched native xylan substrates, and does not have activity against glucans.

Chromosome pairing in durum x alien species hybrids provides an understanding of genomic relationships, which is useful in planning alien gene introgression strategies. Two durum cultivars, 'Lloyd' and 'Langdon', were crossed with diploid wheatgrass, Thinopyrum bessarabicum (2n = 2x = 14; JJ), to synthesize F sub(1) hybrids (2n = 3x = 21; ABJ) with Ph1. 'Langdon' disomic substitution 5D(5B) was used as a female parent to produce F sub(1) hybrids without Ph1, which resulted in elevation of pairing between durum and grass chromosomes - an important feature from the breeding standpoint. The F sub(1) hybrids were backcrossed to respective parental cultivars and BC sub(1) progenies were raised. 'Langdon' 5D(5B) substitution x Th. bessarabicum F sub(1) hybrids were crossed with normal 'Langdon' to obtain BC sub(1) progeny. Chromosome pairing relationships were studied in F sub(1) hybrids and BC sub(1) progenies using both conventional staining and fluorescent genomic in situ hybridization (fl-GISH) techniques. Multicolour fl-GISH was standardized for characterizing the nature and specificity of chromosome pairing: A-B, A-J and B-J pairing. The A-J and B-J pairing will facilitate gene introgression in durum wheat. Multicolour fl-GISH will help in characterizing alien chromosome segments captured in the durum complement and in their location in the A and/or B genome, thereby accelerating chromosome engineering research.

AN - 19441207; 6587700 AB - 1. Logging can strongly affect stream macroinvertebrate communities, but the direction and magnitude of these effects and their implications for trout abundance are frequently region-specific and difficult to predict. 2. In first-order streams in northern New England (U.S.A.) representing a chronosequence of logging history (80 years since logging), we measured riparian forest conditions, stream macroinvertebrate community characteristics and brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) abundance. Principal component analysis was used to collapse forest data into two independent variables representing variation in logging history, riparian forest structure and canopy cover. We used these data to test whether logging history and associated forest conditions were significant predictors of macroinvertebrate abundance and functional feeding group composition, and whether brook trout abundance was related to logging-associated variation in invertebrate communities. 3. Catchments with high PC1 scores (recently logged, high-density stands with low mean tree diameter) and low PC2 scores (low canopy cover) had significantly higher total macroinvertebrate abundance, particularly with respect to chironomid larvae (low PC2 scores) and invertebrates in the grazer functional feeding group (high PC1 scores). In contrast, proportional representation of macroinvertebrates in the shredder functional feeding group increased with time since logging and canopy cover (high PC2 scores). Brook trout density and biomass was significantly greater in young, recently logged stands (high PC1 scores) and was positively related to overall macroinvertebrate abundance. In addition, three variables - trout density, invertebrate abundance and shredder abundance - successfully discriminated between streams that were less-impacted versus more-impacted by forestry. 4. These results indicate that timber harvest in northern New England headwater streams may shift shredder-dominated macroinvertebrate communities supporting low trout abundance to a grazer/chironomid-dominated macroinvertebrate community supporting higher trout abundance. However, while local effects on brook trout abundance may be positive, these benefits may be outweighed by negative effects of brook trout on co-occurring species, as well as impairment of habitat quality downstream. Research testing the generality of these patterns will improve understanding of how aquatic ecosystems respond to anthropogenic and natural trajectories of forest change.

Some cryoprotectant solutions, such as plant vitrification solution 2 (PVS2), dehydrate cells and decrease lethal ice formation, but the extent of dehydration and the effect on water freezing properties are not known. We examined the effect of a PVS2 cryoprotection protocol on the water content and phase behavior of mint and garlic shoot tips using differential scanning calorimetry. The temperature and enthalpy of water melting transitions in unprotected and recovering shoot tips were comparable to dilute aqueous solutions. Exposure to PVS2 changed the behavior of water in shoot tips: enthalpy of melting transitions decreased to about 40Jg H sub(2)O super(-) super(1) (compared to 333Jg H sub(2)O super(-) super(1) for pure H sub(2)O), amount of unfrozen water increased to ~ 0.7g H sub(2)Og dry mass super(-) super(1) (compared to } .4g H sub(2)Og dry mass super(-) super(1) for unprotected shoot tips), and a glass transition (T sub(g)) at -115 super(o)C was apparent. Evaporative drying at room temperature was slower in PVS2-treated shoot tips compared to shoot tips receiving no cryoprotection treatments. We quantified the extent that ethylene glycol and dimethyl sulfoxide components permeate into shoot tips and replace some of the water. Since T sub(g) in PVS2-treated shoot tips occurs at -115 super(o)C, mechanisms other than glass formation prevent freezing at temperatures between 0 and -115 super(o)C. Protection is likely a result of controlled dehydration or altered thermal properties of intracellular water. A comparison of thermodynamic measurements for cryoprotection solutions in diverse plant systems will identify efficacy among cryopreservation protocols.

In this report, we present standing root biomass of species and root length and diameter after five years of CO sub(2) enrichment ( similar to 720 mu mol mol super(-1)) in large (16 m super(2 )ground area) open-top chambers placed over a native shortgrass steppe in Colorado, USA. Total root biomass in 100 cm long x 20 cm wide x 75 cm depth soil monoliths and root biomass of the three dominant grass species of the site were not significantly affected by elevated CO sub(2). Root biomass of Stipa comata in the 0-20 cm soil depth was nearly 100% greater in elevated vs. ambient CO sub(2) chambers, but this was not statistically significant (P=0.14). However, there was a significant 37% increase in fine root length under elevated CO sub(2) in the 0-10 cm soil depth layer. Other reports from this study suggest that the increase in fine roots is primarily from improved seedling recruitment of S. comata under elevated CO sub(2). Few treatment differences in root length or diameter were detected in lower 10 cm depth increments, to 80 cm. These results reflect the root status integrated over two wet, two dry and one normal precipitation years and approximately one complete cycle of root turn-over on the shortgrass steppe. We conclude that increasing atmospheric CO sub(2) will have only small effects on standing root biomass and root length and diameter of most shortgrasss steppe species. However, the potential increased competitive ability of Stipa comata, a low forage quality species, could alter the ecosystem from the current dominant, high forage quality species, Bouteloua gracilis.B. gracilis is very well adapted to the frequent droughts of the shortgrass steppe. Increased competitive ability of less desirable plant species under increasing atmospheric CO sub(2) will have large implications for long-term sustainability of grassland ecosystems.

Guayule leaf explants have a poor survival rate when placed on normal MS medium and under normal culture room light conditions. Low light and low ammonium treatment greatly improved shoot organogenesis and transformation from leaf tissues. Using this method, a 35S promoter driven BAR gene and an ubiquitin-3 promoter driven GUS gene (with intron) have been successfully introduced into guayule. These transgenic guayule plants were resistant to the herbicide ammonium-glufosinate and were positive to GUS staining. Molecular analysis showed the expected band and signal in all GUS positive transformants. The transformation efficiency with glufosinate selection ranged from 3 to 6%. Transformation with a pBIN19-based plasmid containing a NPTII gene and then selection with kanamycin also works well using this method. The ratio of kanamycin-resistant calli to total starting explants reached 50% in some experiments.

The sensitivity and accuracy of the assay were compared with the conventional USDA microbiological procedure using artificially contaminated minced chicken. Chicken fillets were irradiated at 10kGy to completely destroy any naturally occurring Salmonella. These fillets were minced and inoculated with as low as 2+/-1cfu of S. typhimurium per 25g chicken. The minced chicken samples were vacuum packed in multi-layer barrier bags, heat shrunk, and treated with HDP. Results showed that all inoculated samples (n=36) were detected by the PCR assay and conventional USDA procedure. Similarly, all uninoculated controls (n=11) were negative by both PCR assay and USDA procedure. As few as 2+/-1cfu could be detected from 25g HDP-treated chicken following 16-18h enrichment in buffered peptone water. Real-time PCR proved to be an effective method for Salmonella detection in HDP-treated chicken with high sensitivity and more importantly, a rapid and high-throughput detection in 18h, compared to 3-8 days for the conventional microbiological methods. HDP treatment, which has been reported to reduce spoilage bacteria in various meats, was unable to kill pathogenic Salmonella in minced chicken.

Two types of biobullet payloads were evaluated; compacted SRB51 pellets or SRB51 encapsulated in photopolymerized poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogels. Bison were vaccinated with saline, parenteral SRB51 alone, or in combination with Spirovac[TM], or ballistically with compressed SRB51 or hydrogel biobullets. Bison parenterally vaccinated with SRB51 had greater (P - 0.05) immunologic responses when compared to control bison. Co-administration of Spirovac[TM] as an adjuvant did not influence immunologic responses. As compared to compressed SRB51 biobullets, ballistic vaccination with hydrogel biobullets increased cellular immune responses at some sampling times. Our data suggest that hydrogel formulations of SRB51 may be a superior alternative to compressed SRB51 tablets for ballistic vaccination of bison. Although preliminary, data suggests that immunologic responses of bison to SRB51 hydrogel bullets are similar to responses after parenteral vaccination with SRB51.

Because brushland soils are often shallow with low water holding capacities, and are on slopes prone to erosion, disturbances such as fire can adversely affect their physical properties. Fire can also increase the spatial coverage of soil water repellency, reducing infiltration, and, in turn, increasing overland flow and subsequent erosion. We studied the impacts of fire on soil properties by collecting data before and after a prescribed burn conducted during Spring 2001 on the San Dimas Experimental Forest, southern California. The fire removed the litter layer and destroyed the weak surface soil structure; leaving a thin band of ash and char on top of, and mixed in with, an unstable, granular soil of loose consistency. Median litter thickness and clay content were significantly decreased after fire while soil bulk density increased. At 7 d post-fire, soil surface repellency in the watershed was significantly higher than prior to the burn. At 76 d post- fire, surface soil water repellency was returning to near pre-fire values. At the 2 and 4 cm depths, 7 d post-fire soil repellency was also significantly higher than pre-fire, however, conditions at 76 d post-fire were similar to pre- fire values. Variability in soil water repellency between replicates within a given 15 x 15 cm site was as large as the variability seen between sites over the 1.28 ha watershed. The increase in post-fire persistence of water repellency was largest beneath ceanothus (Ceanothus crassifolius) as compared to a small increase beneath chamise (Adenostoma fasciculatum). However, pre-fire persistence was higher under chamise than for ceanothus. Post-fire changes to soil properties may increase the watershed hydrologic response, however the mosaic distribution of water repellency may lead to a less severe increase in hydrologic response than might be expected for a spatially more homogenous increase in repellency.

Consequently, we have developed methods for studying wildlife responses to off-road recreation with the use of new technologies that allow frequent and accurate monitoring of human-wildlife interactions. To illustrate these methods, we studied the response of Rocky Mountain elk Cervus elaphus L. to all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), one of the most prominent forms of summer recreation in North America. We studied elk because the species is not only of keen economic and social interest across North America and Europe but also exemplifies species that can be sensitive to human disturbance. The study was part of a controlled landscape experiment where global positioning system (GPS)-equipped recreationists traversed an established 32-km route inside a 1453-ha elk-proof enclosure. Elk locations before and during the human disturbances were monitored using an automated telemetry system. The unique data set and study objectives led to our development of statistical methods for analysing the response of wildlife to human disturbance. We developed a statistical method, referred to as a probabilistic flight response, which accounted for daily circadian rhythms in movement behaviour of elk, and related the probability of flight to distance to the disturbance and a number of environmental covariates. We also present methods for estimating spatially and temporally explicit movement vectors as a way of detecting and visualizing landscape-level movement patterns. Using these methods, we observed that elk appeared to respond at relatively long distances (> 1000 m) to ATVs, and that the estimated probability of flight appeared to be higher when elk were closer to the ATV routes, even when the distance to an ATV was large. Synthesis and applications. Our study quantifies the response of wildlife to human disturbance at a resolution well beyond previous work, and provides methods to improve our understanding of wildlife-human interactions related to management of wildlife and recreation. These methods may be used for any study involving accurate, frequent monitoring of animals and humans with the use of GPS or similar technologies now commonly available.

Research on water quality associated with turfgrass has generally focused on surface runoff, not subsurface flows. Quantifying the delivery of nutrients, nitrate nitrogen (NO sub(3)-N) and dissolved reactive phosphorus, to streams from subsurface drainage features on managed turf sites, and relating the transport to fertility management and season is important for many urban managers, especially those under regulatory scrutiny. NO sub(3)-N and dissolved reactive P concentrations from two French drains located on the Morris Williams' Municipal Golf Course in Austin, Texas, were measured over a four-year period (March, 1999 to March, 2003). Time series statistics were used to analyze and relate NO sub(3)-N and dissolved reactive P concentrations to weather and management. A weak statistical relationship (r super(2) = 0.55) was detected between discharge and NO sub(3)-N concentration at one of the two drains. The relationship between discharge and dissolved reactive P concentration was not significant. Median NO sub(3)-N concentrations from the two drains were 1.27 mg L super(-1) and 0.32 mg L super(-1) NO sub(3)-N loading from the drains was 2.7 kg ha super(-1) (2.4 lb ac super(-1)). The NO sub(3)-N concentrations and load from the turf area were approximately 10 percent of those values reported for typical row crop agriculture. Median dissolved reactive P concentrations were 0.11 mg L super(-1) and 0.09 mg L super(-1) while dissolved reactive P loading was 0.46 kg ha super(-1). Significant ( alpha = 0.05) seasonal tendencies were found with respect to NO sub(3)-N and dissolved reactive P. A strong correlation was evident between the timing of peak NO sub(3)-N losses and nitrogen application; and between the timing of peak NO sub(3)-N losses and air temperature. There was a similar correlation between the timing of peak dissolved reactive P losses and phosphorus application. Our results suggest NO sub(3)-N transport in subsurface drainage from this golf course is not a water quality issue. However, our findings suggest significant dissolved reactive P transport through the drains and a need for an integrated (turf, nutrients, and water) management plan that includes consideration of subsurface drainage fluxes.

On the other hand, crop diversification in dryland agriculture in the northern Great Plains promotes the use of crops that produce significantly less soil coverage by residue than small cereal grains. Within a 10 x 10 crop sequence project under no-till in south-central North Dakota [409 mm (16.1 in) mean annual precipitation], all two-year crop sequence combinations often crops (barley, canola, crambe, dry bean, dry pea, flax, safflower, soybean, spring wheat, and sunflower) were evaluated at two adjacent sites. Soil coverage by residue was measured by transect and photographic techniques following spring wheat seeding. Soil coverage ranged from 98 to 89 percent following crop sequences that included spring wheat and barley. Soil coverage values were intermediate for spring wheat - alternative crop sequences, 97 to 62 percent. Crop sequences not including spring wheat with alternative crops for two years had values ranging from 86 to 35 percent. Soil coverage values after two consecutive years of sunflower or dry pea (two years of data) and two years of dry bean or safflower (single year of data) were in a lower range, 48 to 35 percent. Soil erosion hazards were evaluated with equations based on residue effects alone that were taken from the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) water erosion and Revised Wind Erosion Equation (RWEQ) wind erosion models: calculated soil loss ratio values (SLR = 1 with no residue protection) for 35 percent coverage following a sunflower-sunflower sequence were 0.29 for water erosion and 0.21 for wind erosion. Even with use of no-till, especially on more fragile soils, producers should consider planting a higher residue-producing crop (e.g., wheat, flax) the year before seeding lower residue-producing crops in order to assure adequate protection of soil and land resources.

In this study we investigate the effects of heat, one important factor of fire disturbances, on the ability of ectomycorrhizal RPC fungi to colonize Pinus jeffreyi seedlings in greenhouse bioassays. Prior to planting the seed, soils were collected from an old growth mixed-conifer forest in the southern Sierra Nevada, California, USA and then subjected to four heat treatments of none, 45 degree C, 60 degree C, and 75 degree C. After eight months, seedlings were harvested and the ectomycorrhizal fungi colonizing the roots were characterized by molecular methods (PCR-RFLP and DNA sequencing). Rhizopogon species increased in dominance on seedlings grown in soils receiving the 75 degree C heat treatment. One species significantly increased in frequency, Rhizopogon olivaceotinctus, and two species (Cenococcum geophilum and Wilcoxina sp.) significantly decreased in frequency in the 75 degree C treatment. The increase of R. olivaceotinctus, coupled with other features of its behavior, suggests that substantial heat disturbances may benefit this species in competing for roots.

However, MODIS underestimated NPP for less-dominant northern hardwood forests and overestimated NPP for coniferous forests. Causes of inaccurate estimates of NPP by MODIS were (1) an aggregated classification and parameterization of diverse deciduous forests in different climatic environments into a single class that averages different radiation conversion efficiencies; and (2) lack of soil water constraints on NPP for forests or areas that occur on thin or sandy, coarse-grained soil. We developed the "available soil water index" for adjusting the MODIS NPP estimates, which significantly improved NPP estimates for coniferous forests. The MODIS NPP estimates have many advantages such as globally continuous monitoring and remarkable accuracy for large scales. However, at regional or local scales, our study indicates that it is necessary to adjust estimates to specific vegetation types and soil water conditions.

However, differences in behavior between pollinator groups could easily influence how each group affects outcrossing rate. We examined the influence of distinct insect pollinator groups on outcrossing rate in the rocky mountain columbine, Aquilegia coerulea. The impact of population size, plant density, size of floral display, and herkogamy (spatial separation between anthers and stigmas) on outcrossing rate was also considered as these variables were previously found to affect outcrossing rate in some plant species. We quantified correlations between all independent variables and used simple and two-factor regressions to determine direct and indirect impact of each independent variable on outcrossing rate. Outcrossing rate increased significantly with hawkmoth abundance but not with the abundance of any of the other groups of floral visitors, which included bumblebees, solitary bees, syrphid flies, and muscidae. Outcrossing rate was also significantly affected by floral display size and together, hawkmoth abundance and floral display size explained 87% of the variation in outcrossing rate. None of the other independent variables directly affected the outcrossing rate. This is the first report of a significant impact of pollinator type on outcrossing rate. Hawkmoths did not visit fewer flowers per plant relative to other pollinator groups but preferred visiting female-phase flowers first on a plant. Both the behavior of pollinators and floral display size affected outcrossing rate via their impact on the level of geitonogamous (among flower) selfing. Given that geitonogamous selfing is never advantageous, the variation in outcrossing rate and maintenance of mixed mating systems in populations of A. coerulea may not require an adaptive explanation.

A. glabripennis is regulated by federal quarantines in the United States and Canada and is the subject of eradication programs that involve locating, cutting, and chipping all infested trees. Other control methods are needed to aid in eradication and to form an integrated management program in the event eradication fails. We conducted laboratory bioassays to determine the toxicity of two systemic insecticides, azadirachtin and imidacloprid, for potential control of A. glabripennis and the cottonwood borer, Plectrodera scalator (F.) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae), a closely related native cerambycid. Larvae of both cerambycid species were fed artificial diet with dilutions of azadirachtin or imidacloprid for 14 wk. Both insecticides exhibited strong antifeedant effects and some toxicity against A. glabripennis and P. scalator larvae. For A. glabripennis, the highest larval mortality at the end of the bioassay was 60% for larvae fed artificial diet treated with azadirachtin (50 ppm) or imidacloprid (1.6 ppm). For P. scalator, the highest larval mortality at the end of the bioassay was 100% for larvae fed artificial diet treated with azadirachtin (50 ppm) or imidacloprid (160 ppm). At 14 wk, the LC sub(50) values for P. scalator were 1.58 and 1.78 ppm for azadirachtin and imidacloprid, respectively. Larvae of both species gained weight when fed diet treated with formulation blanks (inert ingredients) or the water control but lost weight when fed diet treated with increasing concentrations of either azadirachtin or imidacloprid. In a separate experiment, A. glabripennis adults were fed maple twigs treated with high and low concentrations of imidacloprid. A. glabripennis adult mortality reached 100% after 13 d on twigs treated with 150 ppm imidacloprid and after 20 d on twigs treated with 15 ppm imidacloprid. There was no visible feeding by A. glabripennis adults on twigs treated at the higher imidacloprid rate, and feeding was significantly reduced for adults placed on twigs treated at the low imidacloprid rate compared with adults on untreated twigs. In summary, imidacloprid and azadirachtin had both antifeedant and toxic effects against A. glabripennis and P. scalator and have potential for use in management programs. Based on our results, the delivery of high and sustained insecticide concentrations will be needed to overcome the antifeedant effects and lengthy lethal time for both larvae and adults exposed to these insecticides.

Austin (Convolvulaceae) with conspicuous, round, yellowish orange leaf spots measuring up to 8 mm in diameter were collected from a garden plant in Cabo Rojo, Miradero, Puerto Rico on 8 December 2004. Uredinia and telia were observed in the symptomatic areas. The uredinia were aecioid, amphigenous but mainly hypophyllous, cupulate, and grouped in the round chlorotic leaf spots. The peridial cells measured 24 to 36 x 18 to 25 mu m with walls 4 to 6 mu m thick, the outer wall was striate to verrucose and the inner wall was verrucose. Urediniospores were catenulate, globoid to ellipsoid, sometimes narrow at the apex, and measured 28 to 36 x 20 to 30 mu m. The urediniospore walls were colorless to yellowish, verrucose, 2 to 3 mu m at the sides, and as much as 15 mu m at the apex. Telia were epi-phyllous, in the same spots as the uredinia, rounded, chestnut brown, and subepidermal, becoming erumpent. Teliospores measured 42 to 57 x 28 to 36 mu m and were pale to cinnamon brown when young, becoming chestnut brown at maturity. The teliospores were ellipsoid or oblong, rounded at the top and bottom, with no constriction at the septum, and with walls verru-cose, 3 to 4 mu m at the sides and 5 to 7 mu m at the septum and apex. Each teliospore had a pedicel that was colorless except close to the spore it was pale brown. Pedicels measured as much as 70 mu m long and 10 mu m thick and were easily broken. The rust was identified as Puccinia puta H.S. Jacks. & Holw. ex F. Kern, Thurst. & Whetzel, as compared macro-scopically and microscopically with specimens in the U.S. National Fungus Collection (BPI) and also with published descriptions. P. puta has been reported from South America and Mexico on species of Ipomoea. I. carnea subsp. fistulosa is cultivated as an ornamental plant and widely distributed mainly in wet areas in the Americas from Argentina to Florida and Texas.

Snyd. & Hans, has been reported from Texas. This disease is typified by yellowing of the foliage, vascular discoloration, and a rot of the root tip. During 2002 and 2003, sugar beet samples from several fields in Colorado and Montana, some with tip rot symptoms, were received by the authors. Isolations were made from the root vascular tissue and tissue adjacent to the rot in Colorado and from the rot tissue in Montana. Isolates of Fusarium were obtained and identified as Fusarium oxysporum. At the ARS laboratory in Colorado, F. oxysporum isolates were tested for pathogenicity by dipping roots of 5-week-old sugar beet plants (FC716) in a suspension of 10 super(4) spores per ml for 8 min, 10 plants per isolate. One known isolate of F. oxysporum f. sp. betae that causes Fusarium yellows, Fob13, was used for comparison. For a negative control, plants were dipped in sterile water. Beets were planted in Cone-Tainers (3.8 cm in diameter x 21 cm) containing pasteurized potting mix. Plants were placed in a greenhouse at 24 to 27 degree C and fertilized with 15-30-15 fertilizer every 2 weeks to avoid chlorosis from nutrient deficiency. Plants were rated weekly for foliar symptoms for 6 weeks with a Fusarium yellows rating scale of 0 to 4, in which 0 = no disease and 4 = complete plant death. After the final rating, plants were removed from the soil and the taproot was examined for rot symptoms. Root segments were surface disinfested with 0.5% sodium hypochlorite and cultured on potato dextrose agar to confirm the presence of the pathogen. The experiment was done twice. Six of ten F. oxysporum isolates tested caused root vascular discoloration and foliar symptoms, including interveinal yellowing and wilting, of inoculated plants. A rot of the root tip was observed on the roots of plants inoculated with three of the six pathogenic isolates. Isolate Fob13 caused only vascular discoloration and foliar symptoms with no rot. Similar experiments were done in Montana with the exception that 3-week-old plants (cv. Monohikari) were used and planted in 10-cm plastic pots with five seedlings per pot. Inoculum levels were 10 super(5) spores per ml of F. oxysporum f. sp. betae (isolate 216C) or tip rot isolates (3 isolates), and the experiments were terminated 4 weeks after planting. The root rot isolates caused foliar symptoms, vascular discoloration, and root rot similar to that seen in the field, whereas isolate 216C caused only foliar wilt symptoms and vascular discoloration. Isolations from inoculated plants in Colorado and Montana resulted in F. oxysporum cultures similar to those used in inoculation. To our knowledge, this is the first report of F. oxysporum causing root rot of sugar beet outside of Texas.

A recent study showed that the Upper Truckee River is the single largest contributor of sediment to Lake Tahoe, with a large proportion of the sediment load emanating from streambanks. This study combines field data with numerical modeling to identify the critical conditions for bank stability along an unstable reach of the Upper Truckee River, California. Bank failures occur during winter and spring months, brought on by repeated basal melting of snow packs and rain-on-snow events. Field studies of young lodgepole pines and Lemmon's willow were used to quantify the mechanical, hydrologic, and net effects of riparian vegetation on streambank stability. Lemmon's willow provided an order of magnitude more root reinforcement (5.5 kPa) than the lodgepole pines (0.5 kPa); the hydrologic effects of the species varied spatially and temporally and generally were of a smaller magnitude than the mechanical effects. Overall, Lemmon's willow provided a significant increase in bank strength, reducing the frequency of bank failures and delivery of fine grained sediment to the study reach of the Upper Truckee River.

Buffers improve both surface and subsurface water quality. Soils under permanent buffer vegetation generally have higher organic carbon concentrations, higher infiltration capacities, and more active microbial populations than similar soils under annual cropping. Sediment can be trapped with rather narrow buffers, but extensive buffers are better at transforming dissolved pollutants. Buffers improve surface runoff water quality most efficiently when flows through them are slow, shallow, and diffuse. Vegetative barriers - narrow strips of dense, erect grass - can slow and spread concentrated runoff. Subsurface processing is best on shallow soils that provide increased hydrologic contact between the ground water plume and buffer vegetation. Vegetated ditches and constructed wetlands can act as "after-field" conservation buffers, processing pollutants that escape from fields. For these buffers to function efficiently, it is critical that in-field and edge-of-field practices limit peak runoff rate and sediment yield in order to maximize contact time with buffer vegetation and minimize the need for cleanout excavation that destroys vegetation and its processing capacity.

However, environmental benefits of these programs have not been quantified. A national project is under way to estimate the effect of conservation practices on environmental resources. The watershed models intended for use in that project are focused on water quantity and quality and have minimal habitat assessment capability. Major impairments to aquatic ecosystems in many watersheds consist of physical habitat degradation, not water quality, suggesting that current models for this national initiative do not address one of the most significant aspects of aquatic ecosystem degradation. Currently used models contain some components relevant to aquatic habitat, and this paper describes specific components that should be added to allow rudimentary stream habitat quality assessments. At least six types of variables could be examined for ecological impact: land use, streamflow, water temperature, streambed material type, large woody debris, and hydraulic conditions at base flow. All of these variables are influenced by the presence, location, and quality of buffers. Generation of stream corridor ecological or habitat quality indices might contribute to assessments of the success or failure of conservation programs. Additional research is needed to refine procedures for combining specific measures of stream habitat into ecologically meaningful indices.

Because of edge effects, seasonal wetlands in upland forest are good systems to explore these linkages. The purpose of this study was to examine flux of coarse particulate organic matter as litter fall into seasonal wetlands in Minnesota, and the relationship of this flux to development of mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti). We hypothesized that litter flux into seasonal wetlands was dominated by upland plant litter that was lower quality and slower to breakdown than wetland litter, and that development rate of mosquitoes reared on upland litter was less than those reared on wetland litter. Of total litter fall into the wetlands, 71 % originated in upland forest. Carbon to nitrogen ratios differed between upland litter (mostly sugar maple (Acer saccharum) and trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides) leaves) and wetland litter (mostly black ash (Fraxinus nirgra) leaves), averaging 63.9 and 47.7, respectively over two years. Breakdown rate of black ash leaves was faster than upland leaves (k (day super(-1)) = 0.00329 and 0.00156, respectively), based on the average between wetland margins and centers. Development of mosquito larvae fed black ash leaves was faster than larvae fed upland leaves. Our results demonstrate linkages between upland forests and seasonal wetlands through litter fall. The abundance of upland litter in the wetlands may influence litter breakdown and carbon assimilation by invertebrates. Wetlands receiving high amounts of upland versus wetland litter may be lower quality habitats for invertebrates that depend on detrital pools for their development.

The previous system of classification was limited in its usefulness and could not be applied consistently by a large cadre of soil scientists with diverse levels of skill and experience. The first edition of Soil Taxonomy, published in 1975, was developed under the leadership of Dr. Guy Smith over a period of about 25 years. The magnitude and complexity of the information favored the use of a hierarchical system presented as a key for consistent application. Operational definitions were used to identify taxonomic limits and diagnostic horizons and features, so that each taxon conveyed the same meaning to every user. The application of Soil Taxonomy had several important impacts on the soil survey program in the United States. The emphasis on objective, measurable diagnostic horizons and features to define classes made all competent soil scientists, regardless of experience and rank, equally capable of accurately and consistently classifying soils. The use of quantitative class differentia improved the quantity and quality of the field data collection. The property ranges of soil series and their geographic distribution have generally been narrowed over time, thus, allowing more precise interpretations to be made. Soil Taxonomy has benefited the soil correlation process by grouping the nearly 22 000 series currently established in the United States in ways that allow us to efficiently compare and differentiate competing soil series and coordinates their use among survey areas. After publication in 1975, Soil Taxonomy was further refined through the work of nine international committees and many individuals. This work culminated in the publication of the second edition in 1999 and, most recently, the 9th edition of the Keys to Soil Taxonomy in 2003. Today, two international committees are considering revisions to the moisture and temperature regimes and improvements to the classification of anthropogenic soils.

The clastogen benzene and several of its toxic metabolites have been shown to cause cancer in animals. Benzene is associated with leukemia and other blood related disorders in humans. Benzene and metabolites tested negative in short-term bacterial mutation assays such as the Salmonella Mutagenicity Test and the Escherichia coli Tryptophan Reversion Assay. These assays, while reliable for the detection of point-mutagenic carcinogens, are incapable of detecting DNA strand break inducing xenobiotics. The yeast DEL assay is based on intrachromosomal recombination events resulting in deletions and is very sensitive in detecting DNA strand breaks. In previous results the DEL assay detected 17 Salmonella positive as well as 25 Salmonella negative carcinogens [Bishop, Schiestl, Hum. Mol. Genet. 9 (2000) 2427-2434]. The carcinogen benzene and its metabolites including phenol, catechol, p-benzoquinone and hydroquinone induced DEL recombination. The benzene metabolite 1,2,4-benzenetriol was negative. Interestingly, p-benzoquinone induced DEL recombination at a dose 300-fold lower than any of the other metabolites, suggesting that it might be responsible for much of benzene's genotoxicity. In addition, an excision repair deficient strain was used, but no difference was detected compared to the wildtype, indicating that DNA adducts subject to excision repair were not formed by benzene or its metabolites.

6635468 AB - The production of reactive nitrogen, nitric oxide (NO), has previously been demonstrated to be a major mechanism by which the innate immune system defends against microbial invasion. The induction of many antimicrobial mechanisms is regulated by numerous components during the transduction of the signal from the cell surface to the cell nucleus where response genes are upregulated. Toll-like cell surface receptor activation often leads to sequential modulation of protein tyrosine kinases (PTK), mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPK), degradation of I kappa B (I Kappa B) regulatory molecules which, in turn, release the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF- Kappa B) family proteins for translocation into the nucleus and subsequent gene transcription. The purpose of this study was to investigate components of the upstream signal transduction pathway induced by bacterial and viral-like stimulation of NO for antimicrobial defense by the transformed chicken macrophage cell line, HD11. We quantified the production of nitrite by chicken macrophages after exposure to selective pharmacological inhibitors of specific signal transduction components prior to stimulation by polyinosinic polycytidylic acid (poly I:C), formalin-fixed Enterococcus gallinarum (EG) or formalin-fixed Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP). We found that NO production induced by dsRNA or bacteria was reduced in a dose dependent manner by specific inhibitors of PTK, p38 MAPK, I Kappa B, and NF- Kappa B. Inhibition efficacy varied dependent on stimulation by bacterial or viral-like ligands. In general, NO production induced by bacterial stimulation was most effectively reduced by inhibition of p38 MAPK and least effectively reduced by inhibition of I Kappa B. NF- Kappa B and I Kappa B inhibition affected NO production induced by dsRNA more than that induced by bacterial stimulation.

Healthy Holstein cows in mid lactation were infected by intramammary infusion with S. marcescens or S. uberis. Following infection, milk samples were collected at various time points. Body temperatures of the cows were taken, and milk was analyzed for colony forming units (CFU) of bacteria and somatic cell counts (SCC). Leukocytes were isolated from the milk and analyzed by flow cytometry. Percentages and types of lymphocytes were determined as well as expression of CD62L, CD11a, LPAM-1 and CD44 on these cells. We found that the percentage of lymphocytes expressing either CD62L or CD11a showed a marked increase 12h post infection (PI) with S. marcescens that was not seen in cows infected with S. uberis. Conversely, the percentage of lymphocytes expressing CD44 increased in cows infected with S. uberis at 12h PI, but the increase was not seen in cows infected with S. marcescens. Expression of LPAM-1 was low at all time points in both groups of cows. Body temperatures became elevated in both groups of cows, peaking at 24h PI in S. marcescens-infected cows and dropping thereafter. In contrast, temperatures of S. uberis-infected cows continued to rise and were still elevated 96h PI. CFU of bacteria isolated from mammary glands of S. marcescens-infected cows dropped precipitously 24h PI but continued at high levels in S. uberis-infected cows. SCC began falling in S. marcescens-infected cows 48h PI but continued to increase in S. uberis-infected cows. Thus, a greater percentage of lymphocytes in milk had a phenotype consistent with recruitment from the peripheral pool following infection with S. marcescens than was seen following infection with S. uberis. Concurrent with the increases seen in percentages of this lymphocyte phenotype, clinical signs lessened in the S. marcescens-infected cows.

AN - 67602500; 16390191 AB - The effect storage had on the microbial biomass in two soils (Trevino and Fargo) was compared to the effect storage had on each soil's capacity to degrade metsulfuron-methyl. Soils were collected from the field and used fresh (<3 weeks old) or stored at 20 and 4 degrees C for 3 or 6 months. The phospholipid fatty acid content of the soils was used to monitor changes in the microbial biomass during storage and incubation in a flow-through apparatus. In both soils, [phenyl-U-14C]metsulfuron-methyl was used to monitor changes in the route and rate of degradation along with 14CO2 evolution (mineralization). Total microbial biomasses in both soils were significantly reduced for soils incubated in the flow-through apparatus, whereas only the Trevino soil's microbial biomass was significantly reduced as a result of storage. The microbial communities of both soils were significantly different as a result of storage as shown by discriminant analysis. In both soils, degradation rate, pathway of degradation, and mineralization of metsulfuron-methyl were significantly affected by storage compared to fresh soil. The half-life of metsulfuron-methyl increased significantly (P < 0.05) in the Trevino soil from 45 days (fresh) to 63 days (stored soil), whereas in the Fargo soil half-lives increased significantly (P < 0.05) from 23 days (fresh) to 29 days (soils stored for 6 months). In both soils, mineralization of [14C]metsulfuron-methyl was significantly (P < 0.05) higher in fresh soils compared to stored soils. The degradation pathways of metsulfuron-methyl changed with storage as evidenced by the loss of formation of one biologically derived metabolite (degradate) in stored soils compared to fresh soils.

6710725 AB - A height increment model is developed and evaluated for individual trees of ponderosa pine throughout the species range in western United States. The data set used in this study came from long-term permanent research plots in even-aged, pure stands both planted and of natural origin. The data base consists of six levels-of-growing stock studies supplemented by initial spacing and other permanent-plot thinning studies for a total of 310 plots, 34,263 trees and 122,082 observations. Regression analysis is the most commonly used statistical method in forest modeling. However, research studies with repeated measurements are common in forestry and other biological disciplines. We choose the mixed models instead of the regression analysis approach because it allows for proper treatment of error terms in a repeated measures analysis. The model is well behaved and possessed desirable statistical properties. Our goal is to present a single height increment model applicable throughout the geographic range of ponderosa pine in the United States and by using only data from long-term permanent plots on sites capable of the productivity estimated by Meyer [Meyer, W.H., 1938. Yield of Even-aged Stands of Ponderosa Pine. US Department of Agriculture Technical Bull. 630].

AN - 67587759; 16290313 AB - A series of column experiments was undertaken to explore the influence of colloid input concentration (2, 1, 0.5, and 0.25 times a reference concentration), colloid size (negatively charged 3.2 and 1.0 microm carboxyl latex), and sand grain size (360, 240, and 150 microm quartz sands) on transport and deposition. A similar mass of stable mono-dispersed colloids was added to each column. For a given input concentration, decreasing the sand size and increasing the colloid size resulted in increased mass retention in the sand near the column inlet and lower relative concentrations in the effluent. For a given sand and colloid, increasing the input concentration produced less deposition and higher mass recovery in the effluent, especially for coarser sands and smaller colloids. Results of a time dependent attachment (blocking) and detachment model were not consistent with this behavior because the simulations predicted much less retention near the column inlet and a decreasing number of favorable attachment sites (mass of deposited colloids) with increasing input concentration in a given system (colloid and sand). A time dependent straining model (filling of straining sites) provided a better description of the effluent and deposition data, but still could not account for the observed concentration dependent mass recovery. Alternatively, the straining model was refined to include a liberation term that assumed that straining was hindered at higher concentrations (collision frequencies) due to repulsive colloid (aqueous phase)-colloid (strained) interactions. Simulations that included straining, liberation, attachment, and detachment significantly improved the description of the experimental data.

Incident radiation is the primary variable controlling energy input to the soil system and thereby influences both moisture and temperature profiles. However, many agricultural field sites lack proper instrumentation to measure solar radiation directly. To overcome this shortcoming, an empirical model was developed to estimate total incident solar radiation (beam and diffuse) with hourly time steps. Input parameters for the model are latitude, longitude, and elevation of the field site, along with daily precipitation with daily minimum and maximum air temperatures. Field validation of this model was conducted at a total of 18 sites, where sufficient meteorological data were available for validation, allowing a total of 42 individual yearly comparisons. The model performed well, with an average Pearson correlation of 0.92, modeling index of 0.95, modeling efficiency of 0.80, root mean square error of 111 W m super(-2), and a mean absolute error of 56 W m super(-2). These results compare favorably to other developed empirical solar radiation models but with the advantage of predicting hourly solar radiation for the entire year based on limited climatic data and no site-specific calibration requirement. This solar radiation prediction tool can be integrated into dormancy, germination, and growth models to improve microclimate-based simulation of development of weeds and other plants.

Historically, up to 95% of turtle nests at HSNWR were lost to predation by raccoons and armadillos. Consequently, predator control was identified as the most important conservation tool at HSNWR, and predator control optimised by predator monitoring led to highly successful results whereby predation had been reduced to low levels (7-13.5% of monitored nests) in 2002 and 2003. In 2004, funding shortfalls caused predator control to be curtailed with 1.5-2 months remaining in the nesting/hatching season. We analysed the resulting effects on turtle nest predation levels compared with the results from 2002 and 2003. The predation rate in 2004 compared favourably with that of 2002 and 2003 until the end of June, after which control was curtailed. Thereafter, predation rapidly accelerated, with the 2004 predation rate increasing to 1.5-3 times the rates from 2002 and 2003 by the end of August. The discrepancy in all likelihood would have grown further, except Hurricane Frances destroyed all remaining nests with 1.5-2 months left in the nesting/hatching season. Product-limit survival analyses demonstrated substantial differences in turtle nest survival between 2004 versus 2002 and 2003, but not between 2002 and 2003. When analysed as cohorts based on month of nest deposition, no differences were found among 2002, 2003, 2004 for nests deposited in May. These nests received full protection from predation in each of the three years. However, the survival analyses for nests deposited in June, and those deposited in July showed inferior survival for 2004 when predator control was removed for the last half of nesting/hatching.

Should it successfully disperse to mainland Florida, it could continue spreading through much of North America where significant negative ecological and agricultural consequences could result. We rapidly developed the information for implementing an efficient and successful eradication program before dispersal to the mainland occurs. This included development of monitoring and indexing methods and their application to define the animals range, the development of baits attractive to Gambian giant pouched rats, efficacy testing of toxicants, and development of bait-delivery devices that exclude native animals. Gambian giant pouched rats appeared confined to the western two-thirds of Grassy Key, but have dispersed across a soil-filled causeway west to Crawl Key. We identified preferred habitat characteristics and potential dispersal pathways. We developed photographic and tracking tile methods for detecting and indexing Gambian giant pouched rats, both of which work well in the face of high densities of non-target species. We identified a commercial anticoagulant bait and we developed a zinc phosphide (an acute toxicant) bait matrix that were well accepted and effective for controlling Gambian giant pouched rats. We also developed a bait station for delivering toxic bait to Gambian giant pouched rats without risk to native species. We consider that the criteria are met for a successful eradication to commence.

Our objectives were to compare bait-site use among seasons, evaluate home-range and core-area sizes between baiting and non-baiting periods, and compare distance from the geographic centres of activity to nearest bait site between baiting and non-baiting periods. From June 2000 to May 2001, we radio-monitored 52 deer and determined their use of 29 seasonal bait sites with automated camera systems. We collected 6461 locations and 1333 photographic observations of radio- collared deer. Bait-site use did not differ among four seasonal baiting periods. Additionally, home-range and core-area sizes did not differ between baiting and non-baiting periods. However, deer shifted their centres of activity closer to bait sites during baiting periods.

Although currently landfilled, these byproduct streams may have potential for value-added processing and utilization, which are options that simultaneously hold the promise of increased economic benefit for masa processors as well as decreased potential pollution for the environment. Fundamental to any byproduct development effort is knowledge of the characteristics of the residue stream, because physical and chemical properties are vital for the proper design of subsequent processing operations and applications. Data for masa byproduct materials are currently not readily available, however. Thus, the objective of this study was to fully investigate, review, and summarize the existing literature in order to develop a comprehensive knowledge base for these residue streams. The most substantial findings from this study were that masa residues currently are not being utilized as coproducts, but instead are being landfilled; they have a high fiber content, and thus much untapped potential exists for its extraction and value-added utilization vis-a-vis human and industrial applications, including phytosterol and ethanol production. It was also determined that masa byproducts, due to the high fiber content, may also be suitable for use as livestock feed additives, especially for ruminant animals that can digest these materials. Furthermore, due to substantial calcium content, masa byproducts could also potentially be used as a calcium resource. Under current processing practices, though, these residues have very high moisture contents. Before they can be effectively and economically utilized, they must be dehydrated in order to reduce transportation costs, decrease microbial activity, and increase shelf life.

Mature trees that regenerated and grew during the Little Ice Age have been dying on low elevation sites with wet soils and open canopies for about 100 years. We propose the following hypothesis to explain tree death (methods in parentheses): landscape features (digital elevation model via LiDAR) and soil properties (soil descriptions) produce poor drainage (wells and piezometers) which create open canopy forests (LiDAR and hemispherical photography) and shallow rooting; exposure allows soils to warm in early spring (air and soil temperature loggers) which triggers dehardening, the loss of cold tolerance, and eventual spring freezing injury (electrolyte leakage testing of tissues). The distribution of yellow-cedar decline is associated with areas of low snowpack in winter and spring. Snow delays soil warming and presumably protects yellow-cedar roots through periods of spring frosts. Limited to higher elevations throughout most of its natural range, perhaps yellow-cedar migrated to lower elevations during the Little Ice Age, and these trees are now vulnerable to the lack of protective snow in these exposed, open canopy forests where forest decline is now severe.

When the soil is frozen, the soil water potential and liquid water content are strongly dependent on temperature. The relation between soil freezing temperatures and liquid water content, termed the soil freezing characteristic (SFC), is related to the SMC. With the widespread use of time- domain reflectometry (TDR) to measure liquid water in frozen soil, simultaneous measurement of soil temperature and liquid water content under frozen conditions enables in situ estimation of the SMC curve through its similarity to the SFC. We investigated the applicability of deducing the SMC curve from in situ measurements of the SFC for simulation of both frozen and unfrozen soil water dynamics. Results suggest that SMC parameters deduced from the SFC may be used for model simulations without a significant loss of accuracy, as compared with model simulations based on pressure plate analyses.

Observed drain discharge rates and chemical concentrations in the drainage water reflected the different transport processes at the three sites in the same area of northeastern France: a sandy loam site (Villey), a silt loam site (Bouzule-1), and a silty clay site (Bouzule-2). The sandy loam site showed very little tile drainage (240 m super(3) ha super(-1)) during the 100-d study in the spring of 2002, as well as low chemical losses in the drainage water (0.16% [v/v] of the applied amount). While little drainage was observed also for the silty clay soil (175 m super(3) ha super(-1)), observed pesticide losses were considerably larger (1.25% of the applied amount). The silt loam soil, in comparison, showed much more drainage (521 m super(3) ha super(-1)) and the highest chemical loads in the drainage water (2.7% of the applied amount). Numerical simulations of drain discharge with the HYDRUS-2D variably saturated flow and solute transport model compared well with the observed data for the relatively homogeneous sandy loam (Villey) and the silt loam (Bouzule-1) soils. The saturated hydraulic conductivity of the bottom layer in both cases was key to correctly predicting the drainage fluxes. Accurate predictions of the silty clay field data (Bouzule-2) could be obtained only when the soil hydraulic functions were modified to account for preferential flow through drying cracks near the soil surface. Chemical concentrations could be better described using a dual-porosity (mobile-immobile water type) transport model for all three soils, including the sandy loam. Results indicate that water and pesticide transport in soils is governed by site-specific processes. Optimal use of the HYDRUS-2D flow and transport model allowed a reasonable description of the field-scale pesticide processes using only a limited number of adjustable parameters.

Newer methods, which respond to soil electromagnetic (EM) properties, typically allow data logging and unattended operation, but with uncertain precision, accuracy, and volume of sensitivity. In laboratory columns of three soils, we compared the Sentek EnviroSCAN and Diviner 2000 capacitance devices, the Delta-T PR1/6 Profiler capacitance probe, the Trime T3 tube-probe, all EM methods, with the NMM and conventional time domain reflectometry (TDR, also an EM method). All but conventional TDR can be used in access tubes. Measurements were made before, during, and after wetting to saturation in triplicate repacked columns of three soils ranging in total clay content from 17 to 48%. Each column was weighed continuously, and thermocouple determinations of temperature were made every 30 min throughout. All of the devices were sensitive to temperature except for the NMM, with conventional TDR being the least sensitive of the EM devices (sensitivity 0.01 m super(3) m super(-3) for the Trime and Delta-T devices. Accuracy of the devices was judged by the root mean squared difference (RMSD) between column mean water contents determined by mass balance and those determined by the devices using factory calibrations. Smaller values of the RMSD metric indicated more accurate factory calibration. The Delta-T system was least accurate, with an RMSD of 1.299 m super(3) m super(-3) at saturation. At saturation, the Diviner, EnviroSCAN, NMM, and Trime devices all exhibited RMSD values >0.05 m super(3) m super(-3), while TDR exhibited RMSD <0.03 m super(3) m super(-3). Soil-specific calibrations determined in this study resulted in RMSE of regression values (an indicator of calibration accuracy) ranging from 0.010 to 0.058 m super(3) m super(-3). All of the devices would require separate calibrations for different soil horizons. Of the EM devices, only the Delta-T PR1/6 exhibited axial sensitivity appreciably larger than the axial height of the sensor, indicating small measurement volumes generally, and suggesting that these systems may be susceptible to small-scale variations in soil water content (at scales smaller than the representative elemental volume for water content) and to soil disturbance close to the access tube caused during installation.

The approaches were based on empirical, physical, semiempirical, and image difference techniques. The empirical approach involved simple linear regression of radar backscatter on soil moisture, while the integral equation method (IEM) model was used in both the physical and semiempirical approaches. The image difference or delta index approach is a new technique presented here for the first time. In all cases, spatial averaging to the watershed scale improved agreement with observed soil moisture. In the empirical approach, variation in radar backscatter explained 85% of the variation in observed soil moisture at the watershed scale. For the physical and best semiempirical adjustment to the physical model, the root-mean-square errors (RMSE) between modeled and observed soil moisture were 0.13 and 0.04, respectively. Practical limitations to obtaining surface roughness measurements limit IEM utility for large areas. The purely image-based delta index has significant operational advantage in soil moisture estimates for broad areas. Additionally, satellite observations of backscatter used in the delta index indicated an approximate 1:1 relationship with soil moisture that explained 91% of the variability, with RMSE = 0.03. Results showed that the delta index is scaled to the range in observed soil moisture and may provide a purely image based model. It should be tested in other watersheds to determine if it implicitly accounts for surface roughness, topography, and vegetation. These are parameters that are difficult to measure over large areas, and may influence the delta index.

Choleraesuis) is the pathogen most frequently isolated from diseased pigs and may affect host gene expression in a species-specific manner. To characterize the porcine transcriptional response to S. Choleraesuis infection, the mRNA profiles from the mesenteric lymph nodes of three non- infected and three experimentally infected pigs at 24 h post-inoculation were analyzed by suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH). Forty-four up-regulated and 44 down-regulated genes were revealed by differential cDNA screening of 384 forward and 288 reverse subtracted cDNA clones. The DNA sequence of the cDNA clones identified genes with a role in a variety of cellular functions as well as gene products of unknown function. Seven up-regulated genes (CXCL10, CXCR4, SDCBP, DNAJA1, HSPH1, HSP90 and ANXA5) and two functionally related genes (HSP70 and DNAJA4:pDJA1) were selected for further analysis based on their predicted roles in infection and immunity. Real-time RT-PCR was performed using RNA collected from a time course of infection spanning from the acute phase (8 h) to the chronic phase (21 days) to confirm and quantitate the up-regulation of the SSH-enriched genes. Correlating with the clinical signs of infection (fever, diarrhea and lethargy), the most dramatic induction of gene expression for all nine genes occurred at 48 h post-inoculation. This investigation further defines the porcine response to a host-adapted strain of Salmonella by revealing the differential expression of genes with a role in a variety of host cellular functions including innate immunity and cytoskeleton regulation.

AN - 17125469; 6755302 AB - Many developed countries have targeted landfill methane recovery among greenhouse gas mitigation strategies, since methane is the second most important greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide. Major questions remain with respect to actual methane production rates in field settings and the relative mass of methane that is recovered, emitted, oxidized by methanotrophic bacteria, laterally migrated, or temporarily stored within the landfill volume. This paper presents the results of extensive field campaigns at three landfill sites to elucidate the total methane balance and provide field measurements to quantify these pathways. We assessed the overall methane mass balance in field cells with a variety of designs, cover materials, and gas management strategies. Sites included different cell configurations, including temporary clay cover, final clay cover, geosynthetic clay liners, and geomembrane composite covers, and cells with and without gas collection systems. Methane emission rates ranged from -2.2 to >10,000 mg CH sub(4) m super(-2) d super(-1). Total methane oxidation rates ranged from 4% to 50% of the methane flux through the cover at sites with positive emissions. Oxidation of atmospheric methane was occurring in vegetated soils above a geomembrane. The results of these studies were used as the basis for guidelines by the French environment agency (ADEME) for default values for percent recovery: 35% for an operating cell with an active landfill gas (LFG) recovery system, 65% for a temporary covered cell with an active LFG recovery system, 85% for a cell with clay final cover and active LFG recovery, and 90% for a cell with a geomembrane final cover and active LFG recovery.

They feed on brine shrimp (Artemia franciscana) to build up energy reserves to complete their southward migration. Whereas it has been speculated that timing of grebe departure from the GSL is due to declining shrimp density, this hypothesis has not been tested. We monitored grebe weight, behavior, and departure dates to test this hypothesis and to determine the effects of declining shrimp densities on Eared Grebes during 1999, 2000, and 2001 when there were different shrimp densities. Despite differences in shrimp densities, grebes left the GSL about the same time each year. Juvenile and subadult mass was significantly lighter (P 0.05) in dive or surface duration between 1999 and 2000, there were differences in the percentage of time spent foraging. Our results indicated that at shrimp densities <0.1 shrimp times L super(-1), grebes increased their foraging effort to offset the declining food resource instead of departing the GSL at an earlier date.

AN - 17097128; 6735018 AB - Our main objective was to improve understanding of herbicide effects on community dynamics to refine the use of technology and advance the development of ecologically based weed management strategies. We hypothesized that native grasslands would exhibit reductions in culturally sensitive forb cover, biomass, and density relative to the rate of application of selective rangeland herbicides, and that hand-removal of sulfur cinquefoil (Potentilla recta L.) would increase indigenous species cover, biomass, density, species richness, and diversity. Treatments consisted of 3 rates each of 2,4-D + clopyralid (0.28 kg ai times ha super(-1) + 0.0532 kg ai times ha super(-1), 0.56 kg ai times ha super(-1) + 0.1064 kg ai times ha super(-1), 0.84 kg ai times ha super(-1) + 0.1596 kg ai times ha super(-1)); 2,4-D amine (0.532 kg ai times ha super(-1), 1.064 kg ai times ha super(-1), 1.596 kg ai times ha super(-1)); metsulfuron (0.0042 kg ai times ha super(-1), 0.021 kg ai times ha super(-1), 0.032 kg ai times ha super(-1)); picloram (0.14 kg ai times ha super(-1), 0.28 kg ai times ha super(-1), 0.56 kg ai times ha super(-1)); and clopyralid (0.05025 kg ai times ha super(-1), 0.21 kg ai times ha super(-1), 0.42 kg ai times ha super(-1)). This experiment was replicated 3 times at 2 late-seral, noninfested sites in southeastern Montana. In a companion study, sulfur cinquefoil was removed adjacent to paired nonremoved controls in 5 replicates at 2 sites in 1-m super(2) plots for 2 growing seasons. Canopy cover, density, and biomass were collected 24 months after initial treatment at all sites. Indigenous perennial grass cover and biomass increased with herbicide application; however, picloram, metsulfuron, and clopyralid reduced native forb density at 1 site, and picloram reduced forb cover at both sites regardless of rate. Effects of herbicides on species richness or diversity were not detected. Hand-removing sulfur cinquefoil increased total plant richness, especially that of native forbs. Restoring species richness and diversity may be difficult using selective broadleaf herbicides because key functional groups, such as forbs, appear to be at risk.

In conventional rats, >70% of the radiolabelled oral dose was retained at 72?h, and lipophilic tissues were the preferred sites for disposition, i.e. adipose tissue, gastrointestinal tract, skin, liver and lungs. Urinary excretion of BDE-100 was very low (0.1% of the dose). Biliary excretion of BDE-100 was slightly greater than that observed in urine, i.e. 1.7% at 72?h, and glucuronidation of phenolic metabolites was suggested. Thiol metabolites were not observed in the bile as had been reported in other PBDE metabolism studies. Almost 20% of the dose in conventional male rats and over 26% in bile-duct cannulated rats was excreted in the faeces, mainly as the unmetabolized parent, although large amounts of non-extractable radiolabel were also observed. Extractable metabolites in faeces were characterized by mass spectrometry. Monohydroxylated pentabromodiphenyl ether metabolites were detected; mono- and di-hydroxylated metabolites with accompanying oxidative debromination were also observed as faecal metabolites. Tissue residues of [ super(14)C]BDE-100 in liver, gastrointestinal tract and adipose tissue contained only parent material. The majority of the 0-72-h biliary radioactivity was associated with an unidentified 79-kDa protein or to albumin.

Recent advances have allowed the incorporation of blood based assays to the diagnostic arsenal for both cattle and deer. Use of defined and specific antigens has allowed for improved specificity of cell mediated assays in both cattle and deer and advances in antibody tests for tuberculosis have potential for use in free-ranging and captive cervid populations. Combined use of blood-based assays with skin testing will require further understanding of the effect of skin testing on the accuracy of blood based assays. Models of experimental infection of cattle have allowed for increased understanding of natural disease pathogenesis. Differences likely exist; however, between cattle and deer in both disease distribution and primary route of inoculation in naturally infected animals.

Sample sites included an urban stream (URB), a site on the same stream but within a National Forest (FOR) and 2 km downstream from the URB site, and a small, undisturbed, forested reference tributary of the main stream (REF). We monitored stream water quality from March 2002 through June 2003. Average base flows for the three stream sites were URB = 184 L s super(-1), FOR = 420 L s super(-1), and REF = 17 L s super(-1). We analyzed weekly stream water samples for NO sub(3) super(-), NH sub(4) super(+), PO sub(4) super(+), Cl super(-), K, Ca, Mg, SO sub(4), SiO sub(2), pH, conductivity, total suspended solids (TSS), and bacteria on a monthly basis. Most solutes were higher in concentration at the URB site, as were conductivity, TSS, and bacteria counts. Reductions in NO sub(3) super(-), NH sub(4) super(+), and PO sub(4) super(+) concentrations between the URB and FOR sites were inferred from changes in nutrient:chloride ratios. Bacteria populations were greater and more responsive to stream temperature at the URB site. Water quality responses to changes in stream discharge varied among sites but were greater at the URB site. By all measures, water quality was consistently higher at the FOR site than at the URB site.
