AB The 2002 Hayman Fire was the largest fire in recent Colorado history (558 km(2)). The extent of high severity combustion and possible effects on Denver's water supply focussed public attention on the effects of wildfire on water quality. We monitored stream chemistry, temperature and sediment before the fire and at monthly intervals for 5 years after the fire. The proportional extent of a basin that was burned or that burned at high severity was closely related to post-fire streamwater nitrate and turbidity. Basins that burned at high severity on >45% of their area had twice the streamwater nitrate and four times the turbidity as basins burned to a lower extent; these analytes remained elevated through 5 years post-fire. In those basins, the highest post-fire streamwater nitrate concentrations (23% of USA drinking water standards) were measured during spring, the peak discharge period. Summer streamwater was 4.0 degrees C higher in burned streams on average compared with unburned streams; these persistent post-fire stream temperature increases are probably sufficient to alter aquatic habitat suitability. Owing to the slow pace of tree colonisation and forest regrowth, recovery of the watersheds burned by the Hayman Fire will continue for decades.

   EXPENDITURES; MODEL; EVENTS
AB In the last decade, increases in fire activity and suppression expenditures have caused budgetary problems for federal land management agencies. Spatial forecasts of upcoming fire activity and costs have the potential to help reduce expenditures, and increase the efficiency of suppression efforts, by enabling them to focus resources where they have the greatest effect. In this paper, we present statistical models for estimating 1-6 months ahead spatially explicit forecasts of expected numbers, locations and costs of large fires on a 0.125 degrees grid with vegetation, topography and hydroclimate data used as predictors. As an example, forecasts for California Federal and State protection responsibility are produced for historic dates and compared with recorded fire occurrence and cost data. The results seem promising in that the spatially explicit forecasts of large fire probabilities seem to match the actual occurrence of large fires, with the exception of years with widespread lightning events, which remain elusive. Forecasts of suppression expenditures did seem to differentiate between low- and high-cost fire years. Maps of forecast levels of expenditures provide managers with a spatial representation of where costly fires are most likely to occur. Additionally, the statistical models provide scientists with a tool for evaluating the skill of spatially explicit fire risk products.

ID POSTFIRE TREE MORTALITY; MIXED-CONIFER FORESTS; PONDEROSA PINE;
   MECHANICAL MASTICATION; FUELS; USA; CALIFORNIA; RESIDUES; OREGON; MODEL
AB Mechanical mastication converts shrub and small tree fuels into surface fuels, and this method is being widely used as a treatment to reduce fire hazard. The compactness of these fuelbeds is thought to moderate fire behaviour, but whether standard fuel models can accurately predict fire behaviour and effects is poorly understood. Prescribed burns were conducted in young ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Laws.) forests at two sites in northern California where the midstorey layer dominated by shrubs had been masticated. Surface fuels were raked from the base of a subset of trees before burning. Rate of spread and flame length were estimated for both backing and heading fires, soil heating measured with thermocouples and tree fire injury recorded. Standard fuel models often over-predicted rate of spread or underpredicted flame length. Custom models generally provided a better balance between the slow rates of spread and moderate flame lengths observed in prescribed burns. Post-fire tree mortality was most strongly associated with crown scorch and tree size; raking fuels from the base of trees did not improve survival. Under severe fire weather conditions, fire behaviour and effect models as well as observations from wildfires suggest that mastication may be more effective for moderating fire behaviour than reducing residual tree mortality. Treating masticated fuels with prescribed burns could potentially improve the resilience of stands to wildfire.

AB Many forests and their associated water resources are at increasing risk from large and severe wildfires due to high fuel accumulations and climate change. Extensive fuel treatments are being proposed, but it is not clear where such treatments should be focussed. The goals of this project were to: (1) predict potential post-fire erosion rates for forests and shrublands in the western United States to help prioritise fuel treatments; and (2) assess model sensitivity and accuracy. Post-fire ground cover was predicted using historical fire weather data and the First Order Fire Effects Model. Parameter files from the Disturbed Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) were combined with GeoWEPP to predict post-fire erosion at the hillslope scale. Predicted median annual erosion rates were 0.1-2 Mg ha(-1) year(-1) for most of the intermountain west, similar to 10-40 Mg ha(-1) year(-1) for wetter areas along the Pacific Coast and up to 100 Mg ha(-1) year(-1) for north-western California. Sensitivity analyses showed the predicted erosion rates were predominantly controlled by the amount of precipitation rather than surface cover. The limited validation dataset showed a reasonable correlation between predicted and measured erosion rates (R(2) = 0.61), although predictions were much less than measured values. Our results demonstrate the feasibility of predicting post-fire erosion rates on a large scale. The validation and sensitivity analysis indicated that the predictions are most useful for prioritising fuel reduction treatments on a local rather than interregional scale, and they also helped identify model improvements and research needs.

AB The birth of the field of biological control of postharvest diseases can be traced back to 1984 when a researcher testing an antagonist (Bacillus subtilis) in the field to control brown rot of peaches (caused by Monilinia fructicola) decided to apply the antagonist directly to the peach to control brown rot. The results were striking. It became apparent from this simple experiment that postharvest diseases and biocontrol were meant for each other. The advantages of applying biological control practices in the packinghouse vs. the field became clear. Biological control holds great promise of providing an alternative to present postharvest chemical fungicides for the control of postharvest diseases and reducing the health and environmental hazards presented by synthetic fungicides. Researchers around the world have been pursuing the use of antagonistic yeasts and bacteria as such alternatives and registered products are now on the market. The major shortcoming of these first products has been their lack of an eradicant action. In other words once a postharvest infection occurs the antagonist is unable to arrest it. This has required the addition of low dosages of synthetic fungicides with the antagonist in order to reach levels of disease control comparable to the synthetic fungicide alone. The early concept of postharvest biocontrol as being a one on one relationship between an antagonist and a pathogen limited approaches to the development of this technology. Using an expanded concept, combinations of antagonists with natural fungicides and physical treatments that induce host resistance are yielding more effective control and enhancing the potential of postharvest biocontrol. Advances in the fields of molecular biology and microecology hold promise for a better understanding of postharvest biocontrol systems and expanding the application of postharvest biocontrol strategies. There is the potential of identifying and manipulating "biocontrol genes" in antagonists to produce more effective antagonists. Genes in antagonists responsible for suppression of pathogens have also been used to screen for more effective antagonists. There is evidence that plants can genetically control epiphytes on their surfaces that contribute to biocontrol. This presents the prospect that "biocontrol genes" can be identified in postharvest commodities that will promote suppressive epiphytes and thus reduce the development of postharvest diseases.

AB Southern leaf blight (SLB) caused by the foliar fungus Chochliobous heterostrophus is one of the most important pathogens affecting maize (Zea mays L.) in warm humid regions. Direct genetic resistance has been studied extensively; more recently attempts have been made to control disease by changing microbial community composition on leaves. The effect of streptomycin sulfate antibiotic treatment on SLB disease progression was measured in the resistant Mo17 inbred and the susceptible B73 inbred under field conditions. Antibiotic treatment slowed disease progression in B73 and had no significant effect on Mo17. Additional analyses of previous experiments indicated that plants treated with streptomycin hosted a different and more competitive bacterial community. These results suggest that the bacterial community on B73 confers susceptibility to fungal disease, and that perturbing that community can reset community structure to confer greater pathogen resistance.

AB An understanding to the microflora species composition and frequency on apple trees is important in understanding the potential for biocontrol to succeed. Ultraviolet radiation (UV) is an environmental factor that limits microbial growth and Surround (TM) particle film is highly reflective of UV radiation and may provide an effective 'umbrella' of protection. Leaf and fruit washings were made in July and September of 2007 and in August and September of 2008 of 'Empire' apple production systems. The systems were: 1) organic production based on Surround particle film for insect control and wettable sulfur for disease control, 2) conventional pesticide program, and 3) conventional pesticide program with the addition of Surround particle film. DNA was extracted from the washings and used as template for amplification of 16S rDNA (bacterial) and 18S rDNA (fungal). The amplicons were subjected to 454 sequence analysis using standard software for taxonomic identification. The results indicated that species diversity was increased by the presence of the Surround particle film with or without synthetic pesticides. These results demonstrate that sensitive tools are available to survey change in microbial populations and a metagenomic approach to microbial ecology has value in the agricultural setting.

AB A biofilm-forming strain of Pichia fermentans was found to be a very strong antagonist against brown rot and grey mold in artificially wounded apple fruit when co-inoculated with either Monilinia fructicola or Botrytis cinerea, respectively. The same strain of yeast, however, was an aggressive pathogen when inoculated on peach fruit, causing rot of fruit tissues, even in the absence of other pathogens. Optical and scanning electron microscopy showed that P. fermentans produces only yeast-like shaped cells during colonization of apple tissue, while exhibiting pseudohyphal growth on peach tissue. A rapid subtractive hybridization approach (RaSH) was used to identify differentially expressed genes in the pathogenic form of P. fermentans by comparing the cDNA of P. fermentans sampled after 24 hours growth on apple with the cDNA of the same strain grown 24 hours on peach fruit. A total of 450 clones were analysed by a reverse Northern Blotting technique, yielding some fragments which were significantly expressed on peach but less on apple tissue. These sequences were compared to the available genome sequences of another dimorphic yeast, Candida albicans, and homologous genes were identified. The relationship between these genes, dimorphism, and pathogenicity will be discussed.

AB To gain insight into the mode of action of the yeast biocontrol agent, Metschnikowia fructicola, the transcription profiles of genes involved in oxidative stress were studied in grapefruit (Citrus paradis, 'Star Ruby') surface wounds following the application of the yeast antagonist. Three transcripts encoding peroxidase (POD), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were selected for temporal expression analysis by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). The application of the yeast antagonist on surface wounds significantly decreased the expression levels of POD and CAT genes compared to control wounds. Moreover, this suppression was correlated with significantly higher levels in hydrogen peroxide, superoxide and hydroxyl production in yeast-treated surface wounds. Together our findings demonstrate that the M. fructicola application is involved in regulation of oxidative stress, and acts to induce ROS production in grapefruit.

AB To achieve the full potential of postharvest biocontrol microorganisms as a viable commercial technology, fundamental knowledge on their mechanisms of action is crucial. After more than 20 years of postharvest biocontrol research there is still limited understanding of interactions taking place between the host, the pathogen, and the antagonist mainly due to difficulties associated with the study of this complex system.
   Our recent research showed that various antagonistic yeasts used to control postharvest diseases (Metschnikowia fructicola, Candida oleophila, Candida saitoana, and Pichia guilliermondii) secreted high, transient levels of superoxide anion as they colonized wounded host tissue and intact surfaces of apple, peach and citrus fruits. The application of Metschnikowia fructicola and Candida oleophila into citrus and apple fruit wounds induced a significant (P <= 0.05) increase in hydrogen peroxide accumulation in host tissue. Importantly, living cell of M. fructicola were detected on the third day after inoculation in fruit wounds exhibiting a high level of host-generated hydrogen peroxide indicating the ability of this yeast to tolerate elevated levels of host ROS. ROS-tolerance may be an essential characteristic of effective yeast antagonists. These data, together with our earlier finding on the importance of hydrogen peroxide in the mechanism of fruit defense against postharvest pathogens, indicate that the ability of yeast antagonists to self-generate and possibly stimulate an oxidative response in host tissue could be one of the major factors underlying the performance of a biocontrol agent.

AB Practices in the citrus industry evolve rapidly to minimize postharvest decay losses, mostly a result of green mold or blue mold, caused by Penicillium digitatum or P. italicum, respectively. Current problems include the continued development of fungicide resistance among these pathogens, and compliance with emerging secondary residue standards and other privatized regulation of production and postharvest practices, the rising popularity of new cultivars (such as mandarin oranges, where natural decay resistance is low) and the decline of others (such as Valencia oranges, where natural decay resistance is high), and marketing issues, including exceptionally long storage for distant markets or a requirement for food safety interventions, such as chlorination at high rates. Recently (since 2000) introduced practices in California include fungicide bin drenching of harvested fruit on transit trailers, the use of fungicides in aqueous solutions rather than in waxes to improve their performance, the application of sodium bicarbonate or potassium sorbate in heated tanks or through high-pressure washer nozzles, ozonation of storage rooms to oxidize ethylene and retard sporulation of Penicillium digitatum and P. italicum, and the introduction of new fungicides (pyrimethanil, azoxystrobin, fludioxonil). Recently evaluated experimental practices include pre-harvest applications of fungicides and growth regulators, mycofumigation with natural volatiles from the fungus Muscodor albus, UV-assisted sorting to remove fruit with mechanical injuries before storage (since these later decay at a high frequency), thermal and chemical disinfection of packinghouses and storage rooms, and the use of phosphites before and after harvest.

AB Gray mold, caused by Botrytis cinerea, is the main postharvest decay of table grapes. It can develop in the vineyard and spread rapidly among berries after harvest, during long distant transport, cold storage and shelf life. Harvested bunches are usually stored in the presence of sulfur dioxide. However, the use of synthetic fungicides and of sulfur dioxide is not allowed on organic grapes and the study of alternative means to control postharvest decay has developed during several decades, along with the expansion of organic agriculture. We can group these approaches as follows: i) biocontrol agents; ii) natural antimicrobials; iii) GRAS type decontaminating agents; and iv) physical means. Two biocontrol agents, Muscodor albus and Hanseniaspora uvarum, have shown equal or better effectiveness than conventional means to control gray mold of table grapes in laboratory scale experiments. Currently, the bottleneck regarding the commercial use of biocontrol agents is that the registration process is comparable to that of fungicides, with similar costs but often with a narrower market. Natural antimicrobials, such as salts, chitosan, and plant extracts, demonstrated good results and often were applied in semi-practical or practical conditions. Several GRAS-classified sanitizers were tested to extend postharvest storage of table grapes, including acetic acid, electrolyzed oxidizing water, ozone, and ethanol, although the GRAS status of some of these compounds is dose-dependent or questionable. Physical means in reference to variations in temperature, radiation, pressure or changing atmospheric composition are all postharvest practices which require significant adaptation by the industry which is accustomed to minimal intervention during harvest. Overall, the use of ozone and of calcium chloride are two successful examples moved to practical application. Improved understanding of the various methodologies and their mode of action will lead to further optimization of the treatments and to generation of novel combinations to control postharvest decay of table grapes. The possible requirements that alternative means should have for the application in the table grape fields and/or packinghouses were summarized.

AB Two psycotrophic yeasts isolated from the surface of cold stored lemons have been selected as biocontrol agents of most common postharvest diseases of apples and citrus, during cold storage. They were identified as Cystofilobasidium infirmominiatum and Leucosporidium scottii. Both yeasts resulted resistant to three of the fungicides most frequently used in postharvest applications, so a combination of the antagonists with fungicide could be used as part of an integrated management practice. However, the growth of both of them resulted affected by the presence of chitosan, so a combination of treatments would be impracticable. Both antagonists were characterized but mechanisms involved in bioocntrol activity could not be fully understood. Nitrogen competition seemed to play a role but further studies are required to get a final conclusion.

AB The key components of biocontrol product development; discovery, fermentation, and formulation, are interactively linked to each other and ultimately, to product performance. The fermentation environment can be managed to maximize the quantity and quality of biomass and bioproducts produced which, in turn, impacts success in formulating a biocontrol product. Multistrain mixtures of biocontrol agents can foster greater and more consistent reductions of plant disease. Microbial mixtures commonly are produced by blending separately produced fermentation products but co-cultivation of strains to equivalent biomass yields in a single fermentation would provide mixture advantages without incurring the cost disadvantages of multiple fermentation and processing protocols. As a first step in determining the feasibility and efficacy of co-cultured fermentor products active against Fusarium head blight (FHB) of wheat, three strains of Cryptococcus spp. that have demonstrated individual efficacy against the disease in one or more field tests were grown in bi- and tripartite fermentations. Growth rate inequalities between co-cultured strains were overcome via establishing consistent initial culture optical desities (OD) using weighted ratios of each component strain. Growth curves of each component strain were determined by plating on a medium that contained melezitose as a sole carbon source and produced colonies of individually distinguishable sizes. After 48 h, co-cultures of Cryptococcus flavescens OH 182.9 and C. aureus OH 71.4 had near equivalent cell counts and represented the only treatment that reduced FHB disease severity (32%, P <= 0.05, Dunnett's t test) when averaged across four greenhouse studies.

AB Several different species of yeasts have been used as biocontrol agents against postharvest diseases of fruits and vegetables. Our current research is directed to develop a better understanding of yeast biology in relation to biocontrol activity and to develop strategies to improve the efficacy of their biocontrol activities. The effect of a mild heat shock (HS) pretreatment (30 min at 40 degrees C for Metschnikowia fructicola; or 20 min at 40 degrees C for Candida guilliermondii) on the tolerance of to subsequent high temperature (45 degrees C) and oxidative stress (0.4 mol L-1 H2O2) was evaluated. The viabilities of the two yeasts subjected to both stresses were enhanced by the pretreatment. Additionally, the HS yeasts showed better biocontrol efficacy against Penicillium expansum and higher population on apple fruits stored at 25 degrees C compared to the performance of untreated yeast cells. The trehalose content in M. fructicola or C. guilliermondii also increased. Results indicate that induction of trehalose content by HS pretreatment may contribute to improvement in stress tolerance, population dynamics and biocontrol efficacy of the two biocontrol yeasts.

AB Fruit surface microflora has been the most productive source of antagonists against fungi causing postharvest decays of fruit. The establishment of populations of these organisms and their interaction with decay causing pathogens in fruit wounds has been the basis for the development of current postharvest biological control systems. However, many pathogens, including Monilinia fructicola, the causal agent of brown rot of stone fruits, can also infect fruit through undamaged tissue in the orchard by producing latent infections that are activated as fruit ripens in storage, resulting in decay. We characterized culturable bacteria and yeast resident microflora of nectarine fruit from early development until harvest over a two year period. Time of isolation was a significant factor in the frequency of occurrence of different bacteria during fruit development, indicating a succession of the genera. However, for yeasts, only the last sampling time was distinct from the earlier samplings, indicating the presence of more specialized yeasts on mature fruit. Conventional screening of these microorganisms, for biocontrol of brown rot originating from wound infections on nectarines and plums, resulted in the isolation of several effective antagonists, which constituted only about 2% of all microorganisms tested. We developed a new technique, involving in vitro and in situ tests, for detecting bacteria and yeasts able to control latent infections of M. fructicola on stone fruits. This new approach can also be used in other fruit systems, including latent infections caused by Colletotrichum spp., and may result in the development of the next generation of biocontrol agents.

AB Arabidopsis thaliana is an ideal model system to study plant cryopreservation at the molecular level. We have developed reliable cryopreservation methods for Arabidopsis shoot tips using the cryoprotectant Plant Vitrification Solution 3. We have made use of the fully sequenced Arabidopsis genome and readily available microarray slides representing 29,000 genes to compare the gene expression patterns among dissected control shoot tips, cryoprotectant-treated shoot tips, liquid nitrogen-treated shoot tips, and post-exposure recovering shoot tips. Genes upregulated during recovery after PVS3 and liquid nitrogen exposure encode proteins involved in response to stimuli such as cold, heat, water deprivation, and oxidative stress. Further investigation of the identified genes may reveal common genetic responses to cryoprotectants as well as suites of genes whose expression correlates with enhanced survival after cryoexposure.

AB Several reports have demonstrated the advantages of backing up field maintained collections in liquid nitrogen. However, the application of cryopreservation protocols to the wide range of genetic diversity found in germplasm collections has only been reported in a few instances. Long-term preservation of dormant buds is less expensive than cryopreservation of shoot or meristem cultures; hence it presents an option for backing-up collections of woody plant species. Dormant bud cryopreservation procedures can be species dependent, but in general they require an ability of the buds to survive desiccation to <= 30% MC and slow-cooling (1 degrees C/h) to -30 degrees C prior to liquid nitrogen exposure. Therefore, this study looked at viability after desiccation to assess pre-liquid nitrogen survival of dormant buds from a number of species. Dormant branches were collected from field-grown trees, cut into 35 mm sections containing one dormant bud per stem section and desiccated to 35-40%, 30-35% and 25-30% MC. Bud sections were then rehydrated in moist peat moss and survival was evaluated by grafting. Data indicated that 65-100% of almond and apricot, >80% of sweet cherry, >21% of walnut and >12% of blueberry dormant buds survived desiccation to 25-30% MC. In contrast, pomegranate dormant buds did not survive desiccation to 25-30% MC suggesting other preservation methods may be applicable for this species. Dormant buds present a difficult experimental system due to many sources of variation which can confound results including the level of dormancy of the buds and the grafting step where success can depend on personnel doing the grafting as well as the source and variety of the rootstock. Development of dependable cryopreservation protocols would increase the number of woody plant accessions being backed up at our Center in a considerably shorter time than preserving the accessions via tissue culture material.

AB Cryobiologists assume that the extreme low temperatures of liquid nitrogen stop chemical and physical reactions that lead to sample aging and loss of viability. This assumption, based on extrapolations of temperature-reaction kinetic relationships, is not completely supported by accumulating evidence that dried seeds can deteriorate during cryogenic storage. After 30 years of cryogenic storage, seeds of some species exhibited quantitatively lower viability and vigor. Loss of viability during storage reflects molecular mobility within the system - in other words, relaxation of glassy matrices. Stability of biological glasses is not currently understood. We present a conceptual model to explain mobility within glasses and how it can differ depending among species and tissue types based on developmental programs during embryogenesis or acclimation and additions of exogenous cryoprotectants. Hence, the same thermodynamic models developed using a seed system may be applicable to a wide variety of germplasm and may provide a priori estimates of achievable longevity. Testing this hypothesis is difficult because of the long time frame needed to validate changes in viability during cryogenic storage; however, long term experiments are becoming increasingly available. For example, cryogenic storage of dormant buds is a highly efficient way to back up orchard collections and some buds have been cryogenically stored at NCGRP for 15-20 years allowing us to investigate effects of weather patterns and harvest dates. In this paper, we explore the thermodynamic principles that contribute to temperature dependency of glassy relaxation as the context for understanding potential changes in viability of cryogenically stored germplasm.

ID VITRIFICATION
AB A comparison between the PVS2-vitrification and the dormant-bud techniques for cryopreservation of ancient apple cultivars, recovered in Veneto (North-East of Italy) and preserved in the field by the Veneto Agricoltura regional agency, is described. In the PVS2-vitrification method, in vitro shoot tips were cold hardened (4 degrees C) for 2 days, exposed to a pre-loading solution (2 M glycerol and 0.4 M sucrose) for 30 min at 25 degrees C, treated with PVS2 for 60 or 90 min at 0 degrees C and then directly immersed in liquid nitrogen. After thawing and plating, the best survival rates for 3 ancient apple cultivars ('Campanin', 'Rosetta Mantovana' and 'Pom dell'Oio') were 57 to 100%. The dormant-bud protocol was based on winter collection of scions from which 35 mm uni-nodal sections were cut, desiccated, slow cooled (-1 degrees C/h) down to -30 degrees C, stored in liquid nitrogen, thawed, re-hydrated and used for vegetative propagation by chip budding. Out of the three tested cultivars ('San Piero', 'Canada Ruden' and 'Rosa Gentile'), the best result was achieved with 'San Piero', with 100% plant recovery when buds desiccated to either 30 or 26% moisture content prior to cryopreservation were used for chip budding. A cost-benefit analysis of the two cryopreservation techniques showed that the dormant-bud method was most effective in terms of time and labour. This outcome is discussed critically, considering many of the parameters that influence time and labour estimations.

AB Recent developments show that it is not necessary to develop new cryopreservation protocols for each new plant or tissue. While it is important to develop new techniques, it is currently possible to apply many of the standard protocols a variety of plants. Screening the diverse plants in a single genus shows that many protocols are easily applied. The protocol to use can be chosen from those developed for similar plants or several standard protocols can be tested. Our laboratory often compares controlled rate cooling, PVS2 vitrification, and encapsulation-dehydration techniques. Comparison of these techniques on diverse germplasm of pear, grass, blueberry, currants and mint provided clear choices of the best protocol to use for storing large collections. Once a protocol is chosen, some critical points can be adjusted to improve the plant response. Each of these methods has some basic steps that can be modified to make them effective for many types of plants. Finding a protocol for use with a new plant species may be as simple as testing available techniques for similar plants. Adjustments at critical points allow relatively quick adaptation of standard protocols to new groups of plants. These principles apply to tropical as well as temperate plants. Preliminary knowledge of the plant species can also provide clues for choosing a technique. Certain parameters may help predict success or failure for a particular group of plants. These parameters may also provide opportunities for improving plant adaptation to cryopreservation.

AB Soil water sensors are widely marketed in the farming sector as aids for irrigation scheduling. Sensors report either volumetric water content (theta(v), m(3) m(-3)) or soil water potential, with theta(v) sensors being more common. To obtain yield and quality goals, irrigations are scheduled to keep soil water in the root zone above a management allowed deficiency (MAD) level, which is specified as a percentage of the plant available water and which may change over the cropping season and with soil type and water quality. For example, representative values for maize grown in a silty clay loam and irrigated with good quality water may be (during pollination): MAD = 40%; field capacity = 0.33 m(3) m(-3); wilting point = 0.18 m(3) m(-3); and water content range of the MAD = 0.33 - 0.27 = 0.06 m(3) m(-3). In a sandy soil, the water content range of the MAD would be much smaller, e.g., 0.03 to 0.04 m(3) m(-3). An important question then is: are available soil water sensors accurate enough in the field to be reliable for irrigation scheduling using MAD? We evaluated the accuracy of several down-hole access tube type electromagnetic (EM) sensors (and the neutron probe) and several EM sensors that can be buried or inserted into the soil. All sensors required soil-specific calibration, with the possible exception of conventional time domain reflectometry (TDR with waveform reduction). The EM sensors based on capacitance measurements were found to be least accurate, most affected by soil bulk electrical conductivity and temperature, and generally ineffective for irrigation scheduling by MAD. The neutron moisture meter and gravimetric sampling were accurate enough to use with MAD. Some insertion type EM sensors showed promise for MAD-based irrigation scheduling. The capacitance sensors suffer from a fundamental problem in that their EM fields do not uniformly permeate the soil, instead preferentially following paths of greater bulk electrical conductivity. Because of differing arrangements of conductive pathways at each sampling location, the capacitance sensors exhibited a variability that did not reflect the actual field variability in water content.

AB We have studied the heritability of the virus transgene engineered in 'HoneySweet' plum through different cross-hybridization with two commercial cultivars of Prunus domestica ('Prunier d'Ente 303' and 'Quetsche 2906') and one wild species, P. spinosa 2862 rootstock using 'HoneySweet' plum as the pollen donor. Over all crosses 46% of the progeny were transgenic. Chi square analyses indicated that the transgene was inherited as a single dominant allele. Transgenic hybrids were challenged with Plum pox virus (PPV) and resistance was analyzed through more than three dormancy cycles. Transgenic hybrids were highly resistant to sharka disease while the untransformed sibling hybrids were susceptible to PPV. As in the 'HoneySweet' parent, silencing was shown to be the mechanism of resistance. These results confirmed the high potential of 'HoneySweet' plum for PPV resistance breeding programmes.

AB The Virus-Serum-Toxin Act of 1913 provides the legal basis for the regulation of veterinary biological products in the United States, and the USDA's Center for Veterinary Biologics (CVB) has the authority to issue licenses and permits for such products. The law was intended to establish standards and control the importation of products into the United States as well as the domestic distribution of products, assuring the purity, safety, potency, and efficacy of veterinary biological products. Prelicensing data evaluation procedures are designed to assess the quality of each product and support product label claims. Under the standard licensing process, this spectrum of evaluation includes complete characterization of seed material and ingredients, and laboratory-and host-animal safety and efficacy studies. Post-license testing includes batch tests for purity, safety, and potency. As part of the production and testing of regulated products, procedures involving animals are used to validate product requirements for safety, potency, and efficacy. Incorporating alternative methods to reduce, refine, and replace the use of animals in the development and testing of veterinary biological products has been a strategic goal for the CVB for several decades, and current licensing processes and policies are designed to support and encourage the shift from animal-based methods to alternative practices while ensuring that regulated products continue to be safe and effective.

The law was intended to establish standards and control the importation of products into the United States as well as the domestic distribution of products, assuring the purity, safety, potency, and efficacy of veterinary biological products. Prelicensing data evaluation procedures are designed to assess the quality of each product and support product label claims. Under the standard licensing process, this spectrum of evaluation includes complete characterization of seed material and ingredients, and laboratory-and host-animal safety and efficacy studies. Post-license testing includes batch tests for purity, safety, and potency. As part of the production and testing of regulated products, procedures involving animals are used to validate product requirements for safety, potency, and efficacy. Incorporating alternative methods to reduce, refine, and replace the use of animals in the development and testing of veterinary biological products has been a strategic goal for the CVB for several decades, and current licensing processes and policies are designed to support and encourage the shift from animal-based methods to alternative practices while ensuring that regulated products continue to be safe and effective.

DE alternatives; vaccine potency test
AB Vaccine potency testing is conducted to provide manufacturers and regulatory officials information regarding the potency of vaccine products prior to market release. Post-licensing potency test protocols are often described and incorporated into regulation or guidance documents. This provides manufacturers with a consistent and uniform framework to follow for market release. Some of these protocols are based on widely accepted international test methods; others have been in existence for decades and were based on the best scientific information available at that time.
   In an effort to ensure that vaccine testing conducted on live animals provides optimal animal welfare, alternative test methods incorporating reduction, replacement, and refinement techniques should be considered and used when appropriate. Russell and Burch, in The Principles of Humane Experimental Technique, define reduction as "reduction in the numbers of animals used to obtain information of a given amount and precision." This paper will focus on three methods of reducing the number of animals used for potency testing. These reduction methods include (1) a change in experimental design, (2) a change based on statistical review, and (3) changes resulting from the harmonization of test requirements.

DE alternatives; vaccine potency test; consistency approach
ID QUALITY-CONTROL
AB Biologics are usually produced from live organisms, and the manufacturing process often involves a degree of natural variability. Characterization of biologics such as vaccines is inherently difficult due to the complex molecular structure of the antigens they contain and the presence of excipients such as preservatives and adjuvants that can interfere with testing. Therefore, each batch, lot, or serial produced must be tested before market release to ensure that the product complies with regulatory standards. This batch release testing emphasizes quality control of the final product and may be characterized by an extensive use of laboratory animals.
   The consistency approach is based upon the principle that the quality of a biologic is the result of the strict application of a quality system and consistent production. Subsequent batches are determined to be similar to clinically evaluated batches and therefore acceptable for release through the in-process testing that comprises this quality system. The European Centre for Validation of Alternative Methods (ECVAM) organized international workshops in 2006 and 2010 to discuss the consistency approach and its potential to reduce the number of animals used in testing of biological products. This paper provides an overview of these workshops. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd. Selection and/or peer-review under responsibility of Integrated Laboratory Systems, Inc.

AB Pest risk analysis is a process that evaluates the risks involved with a proposed species to help determine whether it should be permitted or denied entry into a country, and how the risks could be managed if it is imported. The prohibited listing approach was developed in the late 1800s and early 1900s in response to outbreaks of plant and animals pests such as foot and mouth disease of livestock, Mediterranean fruitfly (Ceratitis capitata Wiedemann), and Gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.). Under this approach, selected species of concern are evaluated to determine if they should be regulated for entry. Under the permitted listing approach that was first used on a national level in Australia in the 1990s, all species that are proposed for introduction are assessed to determine if they should be regulated.

AB Witchweed [(Striga asiatica (L.) O. Kuntze)] is a parasitic weed from Asia and Africa that attaches to the roots of grasses and grass crops such as corn and sorghum. Witchweed was first detected in the western hemisphere in a corn field in Columbus County, North Carolina, in July, 1956. Since that time, a federal/state cooperative program has eliminated over 99% of the 432,000+ acres that have been found infested with witchweed in the eastern Carolinas. This chapter provides an overview of the USDA-Carolinas Witchweed Eradication Program, as well as the methods and procedures that have been employed to achieve this remarkable level of success.

AB The Chief of the Forest Service has identified invasive species as one of the top four threats to our Nation's forest and rangeland ecosystems. In response, the agency is taking a leadership role to "raise the bar" for increased action against this national and global threat, beginning by taking a strategic approach with one focused goal: "To reduce, minimize, or eliminate the potential for introduction, establishment, spread, and impact of invasive species across all landscapes and ownerships". The release of the USDA Forest Service National Strategy and Implementation Plan for Invasive Species Management was a major step forward in reaching this goal, and will guide the agency as it builds capacity to strategically and effectively meet the invasive species challenge in collaboration with other partners. The National Strategy and Implementation Plan is built around four program elements. This includes prevention, early detection and rapid response, control and management, and rehabilitation and restoration. Each program element includes a description of success, achievable accountability measures, and prioritized strategic actions that are specific and achievable steps to reach the stated goal. The Strategy also contains guidance related to four common themes. This includes Partnerships and Collaboration; Scientific Basis (scientific information, assessment and monitoring, and prioritization), Communication and Education, and Organizing for Success (incorporating the themes of improving capacity, procedural streamlining, and funding flexibility with long-term commitment).

AB A variety of methods are used in managing invasive plants in natural areas. This generally includes chemical, mechanical, and cultural control methods. In determining which of these methods to use in a particular situation, a number of questions should be answered. This includes the long term plan for the site, the need for selectivity, the level of infestation, the life cycle of the target species (which will affect the timing of the control effort), the type of labor that will be conducting the treatments, and overall costs. Once the preferred method of control is identified, the next step is to determine the types of personal protection equipment (PPE) that will be needed to ensure the safety of applicators. PPE includes various types of ear and eye protection, water proof aprons, chaps, gloves, shin guards, and boots.

AB After determining the best course of action for control of an invasive plant population, it is important to understand the variety of methods available to the integrated pest management professional. A variety of methods are now widely used in managing invasive plants in natural areas, including chemical, mechanical, and cultural control methods. Once the preferred method of control is identified and the appropriate personal protective equipment has been chosen, the next step is to determine the specific types of equipment that should be used to create the most selective, efficient and affect control of the target species. Chemical control is one of the most frequently utilized tools in this industry. Proper use of chemicals is important and the applicator must always remember that the label is the law. No application offers guaranteed success, but proper use of chemicals and associated tools will increase the effectiveness of the treatment. This involves an understanding of the benefits of adjuvants, proper mixing and application protocols, and finally the correct choice and proper use of low volume, high volume or selective spray equipment.

AB There are many land management scenarios where chemicals are not the ideal choice for controlling invasive plants. More often than not, the best approach is the use of integrated pest management involving a variety of control methods. Maximizing the value of mechanical, manual, and cultural control methods with the added benefit of selective herbicides can offer the best results in many situations. It is important to choose durable and tested tools when utilizing manual and mechanical control as these labor intensive methods can be very time consuming. Down time due to use of inadequate tools can result in missed deadlines and often in poor mortality rates which require expensive retreatments. Land managers should also be aware of cultural methods of integrated pest management which are often overlooked. Mulching, soil solarization with plastic film, thermal weed control, water level manipulations, prescribed burning, and prescribed grazing are cultural methods that can play a key role in the reduction of invasive plant populations.

AB The goal of plant breeding is to effectively and efficiently select for the best phenotypes leading to the development of improved cultivars. The objectives for this review are to describe and critically evaluate breeding methods appropriate to the improvement of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) in a long-term breeding programme. The optimum breeding system is dependent on the traits for improvement, and the available physical and human resources. Forage dry matter yield, persistency, disease resistance, nutritional value and seed yield are considered among the most important traits for improvement. Careful consideration should be given to the expression of the trait under the management regime imposed in the breeding programme and under real-world sward conditions in the target sowing region. Recurrent selection programmes for intra-population improvement are most appropriate for breeding perennial ryegrass. Three distinct types of recurrent selection may be implemented: (i) phenotypic recurrent selection, (ii) genotypic recurrent selection and (iii) marker-assisted selection. Genotypic recurrent selection will be a necessary part of the breeding system if forage yield is a trait for improvement. Genotypic recurrent selection may be practiced using full-sib or half-sib families, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Phenotypic recurrent selection in tandem (i.e., within-family selection) or in succession with genotypic recurrent selection should be used to improve traits that have a high-correlation between performance from spaced plants and from sward plots. Genome-wide selection represents the most interesting and exciting potential application of marker-assisted selection, although it remains to be seen how beneficial it will be in practice.

ID SATIVA; EVAPOTRANSPIRATION; COTTON; SEEDS
AB Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz is an oilseed crop touted as being suitable for production in the arid southwestern USA. However, because any significant development of the crop has been limited to cooler, rain-fed climate-areas, information and guidance for managing irrigated-camelina are lacking. This study measured the crop water use of a November-through-April camelina crop in Arizona using frequent measurements of soil water contents. The crop was grown under surface irrigation using five treatment levels of soil water depletion. The seed yields of treatments averaged 1,142 kg ha(-1) (8.0% seed moisture) and were generally comparable with camelina yields reported in other parts of the USA. Varying total irrigation water amounts to treatments (295-330 mm) did not significantly affect yield, whereas total crop evapotranspiration (ETc) was increased for the most frequently irrigated treatment. However, total ETc for the camelina treatments (332-371 mm) was markedly less than that typically needed by grain and vegetable crops (600-655 mm), which are commonly grown during the same timeframe in Arizona. The camelina water-use data were used to develop crop coefficients based on days past planting, growing degree days, and canopy spectral reflectance. The crop coefficient curves, along with information presented on camelina soil water depletion and root zone water extraction characteristics will provide camelina growers in arid regions with practical tools for managing irrigations.

AB The Geneva (R) Apple Rootstock Breeding program was initiated in the early 1970s with the overarching goal of developing disease resistant, productive and precocious apple rootstocks. Near the turn of the century the program was joined by USDA ARS and in addition to focusing on releasing improved rootstocks it took on the challenge of implementing molecular marker technologies to aid in the active breeding and release process. The first step was to characterize current genetic resources in the elite gene pool of the program and place them in context of other rootstock breeding programs and the larger Malus gene pool. This step yielded knowledge about the uniqueness of the germplasm that Dr. Cummins had created and opportunities for novel germplasm to be implemented. The second step was to gather phenotypic information about different half sib populations within the breeding program to identify the best parents. This was followed by a series of controlled crosses where the progeny was used to discover marker-trait associations. Conversely existing half sib breeding populations were also used for marker-trait association discovery. The main goal and third step of this effort was to implement Marker Assisted Breeding which for traits such as dwarfing and precocity could save several evaluation years in the breeding program. It turns out that in the meantime the most useful implementation of marker technologies has been the ability to fingerprint apple rootstocks with mistaken identity resulting from mixed propagation beds, or tissue culture mistake. We are currently developing a marker assisted breeding protocol that will streamline the breeding process, hopefully yielding more diverse productive rootstocks, resistant to biotic and abiotic stresses and adapted to modern orchard management practices.

AB Fire blight, caused by Erwinia amylovora (Ea), is a major threat to the U. S. pome-fruit industry. Molecular markers for fire blight resistance genes are being developed to facilitate resistance gene pyramiding in the breeding of new apple rootstocks with durable fire blight resistance. Candidate fire blight resistance genes were identified by functional genomics analysis of fire blight resistant (Geneva (R) 41) and susceptible cultivars (Malling.26 and 'Gale Gala') apple cultivars challenged with Ea. DNA markers derived from 28 candidate fire blight resistance genes were mapped in a population segregating for fire blight resistance and several co-located with two previously described quantitative trait loci for fire blight resistance. This research will facilitate introduction of marker-assisted selection to breed superior apple cultivars with fire blight resistance efficiently.

AB 'Robusta 5' (Malus robusta) apple rootstock has been used extensively as a source of resistance to powdery mildew by several breeding programs. A single locus Pl1 has been associated with this resistance and recently mapped on LG12 of the European Apple Framework Map using a qualitative approach. We collected quantitative data on field powdery mildew resistance in 2006 and 2007 on a segregating population made up of 186 individuals from a cross between 'Ottawa 3' (a susceptible apple rootstock) and 'Robusta 5'; the correlation between the two years was 0.84 (P=0.0001). These quantitative data were used in combination with a molecular marker linkage map derived from the same cross to scan the genome using interval and MQM mapping in MapQTL 5 software. Preliminary results show a large effect QTL on the distal end of LG12 with a peak near the SSR marker CH01b12z which coincides with the mapped position of Pl1. Another QTL was detected on LG7 near marker E38M49-265. We are furthering the analysis by increasing the marker density in those regions.

AB China is one of the major germplasm centers of Malus species and is the origin of more than 25 species. Northwest China includes the three provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu and Qinghai and the two autonomous regions of Ningxia Huis and Xinjiang Uighur. It contains an unusually high diversity of wild apple germplasm resources comprising 16 Malus species. The species and ecotypes in the Qinling Mountains are richest, accounting for 80% of those in the Northwest China (65% of those of all China). Among the 16 species, the ecotypes of are most abundant and they are mainly found in humid conditions. M. sieversii is mostly distributed in the valleys of the Tianshan Mountains with its central distribution area being the counties of Yili, Gongliu and Xinyuan in Xinjiang, covering 14,000 ha. The wild Malus species of China are differentiated and adapted to local climates. Chinese wild Malus has been used for rootstocks for a long time in China. Among them, the seedlings of are widely used for rootstocks. However, it is important to make an additional effort to incorporate the desirable genes of this germplasm into dwarfing apple rootstocks.

DE Prunus persica; Armillaria tabescens; breeding
AB Guardian (TM) (BY520-9) peach seedling rootstock was released in 1993 to provide a rootstock with superior resistance to peach tree short life (PTSL) which at the time was the number one cause of premature death of peach (Prunus persica L. [Batsch]) trees in the southeastern US. Since that time Guardian has become the dominant rootstock in this production area principally due to its exceptional resistance to PTSL. However, Guardian, like most peach seedling rootstocks, is highly susceptible to Armillaria Root Rot (ARR). Since Guardian's release ARR has replaced PTSL as the leading cause of tree death in the southeastern US. Accordingly, the rootstock development program at Byron, Georgia, USA has shifted its focus to the development of peach, plum and plum-peach interspecific hybrid materials with resistance to ARR, incited principally by Armillaria tabescens in this production area. In 2007, the USDA, in cooperation with the Univ. of Florida, released Sharpe rootstock for grower trial on Armillaria infested sites. Sharpe is a clonal plum hybrid rootstock with resistance to PTSL, ARR and root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp). Sharpe is semi-dwarf, producing trees ca. 60% the size of those budded on Guardian. A number of plum hybrid, and plum x peach interspecific hybrids are nearing release in the Byron program that provide not only superior resistance to PTSL, ARR and root-knot nematodes but also offer a range of vigor from 60 to 105% that of seedling peach rootstocks and have comparable, if not superior, horticultural productivity.

AB Two replicated rootstock trials on growers farms in New York State were begun in 2004 to evaluate the Cornell-Geneva series of apple rootstocks which have been bred for tolerance to fire blight and Phytophthora root rot, high yield efficiency and good tree survival. In the 2001 trial with 'Golden Delicious' as the scion, the two named Geneva (R) rootstocks, G. 41 and G. 11 were dwarfing, had good survival and had high yield efficiency. Other promising un-named dwarf selections include CG.4214, 6006, 5005, 5087 and 5012. Two semi-dwarfing selections similar in size to M. 7 showed good survival and high yield efficiency, CG.6969 and 5890. In the 2004 trial with 'Honeycrisp' as the scion, the named Geneva (R) rootstocks, particularly G. 11 and G. 935 continued to perform very well but we have also identified a group of 4 new dwarfing rootstocks CG.4021, 4210, 5757 and 4214 similar in size as M. 9 or B. 9 which have high productivity and fire blight resistance. We also identified a group of 6 semi-dwarfing rootstocks, CG.4001, 6969, 5757, 5046, 4004 and 5012 between the size of M. 9 and M. 7 which have high productivity and fire blight resistance. These rootstocks are free-standing but will need trunk and limb support for the high crops which they produce in the early years. These may be useful in parts of the world where fully dwarfing rootstocks are not adapted. We also identified a group of 4 vigorous rootstocks, CG.6001, 7707, 5890 and 6874, larger than MM. 106 which have high productivity and fire blight resistance. These may be useful in the garden center trade.

   breeding; canopy; yield; Geneva (R) rootstocks
AB Apple replant disorder is an increasingly significant factor challenging apple (Malus x domestica) orchard establishment and consistent production. Standard fumigation practices using Telone or Vapam offer effective control, but must be applied correctly and safely, are expensive, subject to restrictive regulation, and not acceptable in organic systems. Dwarfing rootstocks with resistance or tolerance to apple replant disorder offer a clear alternative to producers in tree fruit production areas of the Pacific Northwest of the USA, as long as their genotypes are suitably adapted to the diverse production conditions of the region. In collaboration with the USDA-ARS/Cornell University National Apple Rootstock Breeding Program in Geneva, NY, the Washington Tree Fruit Research Commission (WTFRC) has conducted eight rootstock trials in commercial Washington orchards since 2003. These trials collectively included 65 rootstocks and three scion cultivars ('Gala', 'Fuji' and 'Honeycrisp') planted in modern, high density systems in known replant sites. They featured 46 Geneva (R) (G.) series selections, as well as 19 other genotypes. Trials were designed as split block (fumigated vs. non-fumigated) randomized complete blocks with a minimum of four replications and typically five or more trees per plot. Most Geneva (R) rootstocks outperformed the industry standards of Budagovski (B.) 9, Malling (M.) 9 Pajam 2, and M. 26 for yield, trunk cross sectional area, and fruit size. Supporter 1, Supporter 2, and Supporter 3 have performed similarly to M. 9 clones and have shown no advantage over standard commercial rootstocks. Several Geneva (R) selections G. 41 (tested as CG.3041), G.935 (tested as CG.5935), CG.4214, CG.4814 have performed well in non-fumigated treatments across sites. Trees with G.41 and G.11 rootstocks have shown less vigor than trees on G.935, CG.4214, G.202, and CG.4814. Many of the Geneva (R) series also show significant improvement over currently available rootstocks for other traits including wooly apple aphid resistance, fire blight resistance, ease of propagation. Our collaborative trials under commercial conditions clearly indicate the potential of improved genotypes for apple production in the Pacific Northwest of the USA.

DE Prunus persica L.; peach x almond hybrids; peach x plum hybrids
AB Fourteen Prunus rootstock cultivars and selections budded with either 'Redtop', 'Redhaven' or 'Cresthaven' peach were planted at 11 locations in North America in 2001 in a randomized block design with a tree spacing of 5 by 6 m and 8 replicates. This test planting was a NC-140 Cooperative Regional Rootstock Project (www.nc140.org). There were 14 rootstocks, which included three peach seedling rootstocks: 'Lovell', 'Bailey', and Guardian (R) 'BY520-9' [selection SC-17] and 11 clonal rootstocks. Clonal rootstocks included peach x almond hybrids 'BH-4' and 'SLAP' ('Cornerstone'); peach x plum hybrids 'K146-43' ('Controller 5'), 'K146-44', and 'P30-135' ('Controller 9'); interspecific plum hybrids 'Hiawatha', 'Jaspi' and 'Julior'; interspecific Prunus hybrids 'Cadaman (R)' and 'VVA-1' (Krymsk (R) 1); and Prunus pumila selection 'Pumiselect (R)'. The largest trees were from Georgia, Maryland, and South Carolina. 'BH-4', 'SLAP', SC-17, Lovell, and 'Cadaman (R)' were the most vigorous rootstocks. 'Jaspi', 'K146-43', 'K146-44' and 'VVA-1' were the least vigorous, having trunk circumferences 30-40% smaller than Lovell. No rootstock had a significantly higher survival rate than Lovell at all locations. 'Julior', 'Jaspi', and 'VVA-1' had significantly more root suckers. Cumulative fruit yields were highest on the peach seedling, peach x almond, and 'Cadaman (R)' rootstocks. Lowest cumulative yields were from trees on 'Jaspi', 'VVA-1', and 'K146-44' rootstocks. Fruit weight was significantly larger on 'BH-4', 'SLAP' and 'Bailey' rootstocks. 'Bailey' and 'Jaspi' had the highest and lowest cumulative yield efficiency, respectively.

AB The size-controlling effects of apple (Malus x domestica) rootstocks were characterized in greenhouse experiments. One-year-old 'Fuji' scions on 25 size-controlling rootstocks, from the USDA apple rootstock breeding program in Geneva, NY, were grown for one season and shoot development was measured each month. Discriminant analysis associated the rootstocks into three clusters based on similarity of shoot length and diameter growth and tree height. Total shoot growth for one season was 367, 283, and 149 cm for rootstock cluster (RC) A, B, and C, respectively. RC-A had significantly greater photosynthesis and transpiration rates than RC-C (18.3 and 12.3 mu mol CO2.m(-2).s(-1) and 4.2 and 3.1 mmol H2O.m(-2).s(-1), respectively). At the end of the first growing season, trees were placed in controlled cold environments to provide chilling. At the beginning of the second growing season, trees were removed from chilling, the roots were progressively pressurized up to 1.5 MPa in a pressure chamber, shoots were removed 100 cm above the graft union, and the hydraulic conductivity of roots was measured. Xylem exudate was collected and analyzed for cytokinin, abscisic acid (ABA), and inole-3-acetic acid. Lower hydraulic conductance was associated with the more dwarfing, RC-C, compared with the more invigorating RC-A rootstocks (0.58 and 1.41 ml.cm(Stem)(-1). h(-1).MPaLeaf-1, respectively). Abscisic acid flux was higher in xylem exudates from dwarfing RC-C than vigorous RC-A rootstocks (2.28 and 0.23 pmol.ml(-1).h(-1,) respectively). The concentrations of cytokinin and indole-3-acetic acid were variable but rootstock-related differences were not determined. Stem samples of scion and rootstock from above and below the graft were collected and anatomical differences of stem cross-sections were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy. Results indicated that vessel diameter was less in 'Fuji' scion on RC-C than RC-B and RC-A rootstocks. It is possible that elevated ABA altered xylem development and reduced hydraulic conductance in size-controlling processes of apple rootstocks.

AB High solar irradiance and/or heat stress cause several skin disorders (e.. sunburn, 'Fuji' stain, lenticel marking, and 'Granny Smith' sunburn scald) in apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.), but sunburn usually results in the most cullage. Three types of sunburn in apple have been identified and the specific causes of each have been determined. The first type, sunburn necrosis, appears after high fruit surface temperature (FST) (similar to 52 degrees C) causes thermal cell death. The second type, sunburn browning, is caused by concomitant exposure to high FST (46 to 49 degrees C depending on cultivar) and UV-B radiation, but does not result in cell death. The third type, photooxidative sunburn, requires only visible light and affects shaded (non-acclimated) apples that are suddenly exposed to solar radiation. Because sunburn browning is most prevalent commercially and is often the major cause of cullage of apples, we examined the effects of sunburn browning on internal fruit quality and pigment concentrations. Apples were sorted into five grades: Sb-0, no sunburn; Sb-1 to Sb-4, increasing severity of sunburn browning. As severity of sunburn browning increased in 'Gala', flesh firmness and soluble solids concentration (SSC) increased, but titratable acidity (TA) decreased. During 6 months of cold storage, firmness and TA decreased, but SSC was relatively stable. The ratio of SSC to TA increased dramatically during 6 months in cold storage; ratio increases were most dramatic in fruit with more severe sunburn browning because TA declined so markedly. Sunburn browning also caused significant changes in pigment concentrations. In 'Fuji' concentrations of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and anthocyanin (idaein) were lower in sunburned peel. Concentrations of chlorogenic acid, beta-carotene, xanthophyll pigments and major quercetin glycosides were higher in sunburned peels than in non-sunburned peels. RAYNOX (R), a sunburn protectant invented during the course of these studies, reduced sunburn browning by about 50%, on average.

AB Papaya (Carica papaya L.) is a principal horticultural crop of tropical and subtropical regions. Knowledge of papaya response to environmental factors provides a scientific basis to develop management strategies to optimize fruit yield and quality. In papaya, the photosynthetic capacity also influences papaya fruit quality. We measured the whole-canopy net CO2 exchange and transpiration rate in field grown papaya plants (5 months of age, plant leaf area of 3.5 m(2) with drip fertigation) using whole-canopy chambers (3,400 L) of Mylar (R) film (97% transmittance PAR). In addition, we measured the relationship between whole-canopy transpiration rate measured with the chamber and measured with the temperature difference between sap flow gauges inserted in the trunk of the plants using the Granier heat coefficient (K). For the conditions of the study, [sunny days (maximum PAR=1,600 mu mol m(-2) s(-1)), average air temperature of 23 degrees C and maximum VPDair 3.5 kPa], papaya plants transpired 8.6 L of water/day (8: 00 am to 17: 00 pm) and assimilated 67 g of CO2/day (18.27 g of C/day) with a water use efficiency of 3.2 mmol CO2/mol H2O. There was no evidence of heat accumulation in the chambers. The mathematical sap flow model proposed by Reis et al. (2006) (forced-flow through a stem section) overestimated whole-canopy transpiration but there was a high correlation (R-2=0.85) between K and instant whole-canopy transpiration rate measured in the chambers for the data measured after 12: 00. However, there was a morning lag phase in sap flow. There was also a high correlation (R-2=0.89) between hourly transpiration rate measured in the whole canopy chambers and the calculated reference evapotranspiration (ET0 mm h(-1)), which may represent a low cost methodology to estimate papaya water demand.

AB Surface modification of polyethersulfone (PES) membrane surfaces using UV/ozone pretreatment with subsequent grafting and interfacial polymerization on membrane surface was investigated in order to improve the resistance of membrane surface to protein adsorption. The surface modifications were evaluated in terms of hydrophilicity, chemical composition of the surface and static protein adsorption. In both methods, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and chitosan were chosen as hydrophilic polymers to chemically modify the commercial virgin PES membrane to render it more hydrophilic as these materials have excellent hydrophilic property. Modified PES membranes were characterized by contact angle and XPS. Contact angles of modified PES membranes were reduced by 19 to 58% of that of the virgin PES membrane. PES membrane modified with PEG shows higher wettability than other hydrophilic materials with the highest contact angle reduction shown for UV/ozone pretreated, PEG grafted PES membrane surface. In general, XPS spectra supported that the PES membranes were successfully modified by both grafting with UV/ozone pretreatment and interfacial polymerization methods. The results of the static protein adsorption experiments showed all surface modifications led to reduction in protein adsorption on PES membranes; the highest protein adsorption reduction occurred with membrane modified by UV/ozone pretreatment followed by PES grafting, which corresponded to the highest contact angle reduction. However, there seems to be no clear correlation between contact angle reduction and reduction in protein adsorption in the case that involved chitosan. Nevertheless, membranes modified with chitosan do show higher reduction in protein adsorption than membranes modified with other materials under the same conditions.

DT Article
DE Pressure sensitive adhesive; double cantilever beam; fillers
AB Inorganic fillers are inexpensive materials used to increase the density, smoothness and other properties of paper that are important for printing. In the current study, the adhesion of pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs), a common type of adhesive used in labels and tapes, to papers containing varying amounts and types of fillers is investigated. Papers with three types of fillers, precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC), ground calcium carbonate (GCC) and kaolin clay, were investigated. The compositions of the papers were examined with SEM/EDX, while peel and double cantilever beam (DCB) tests were used to assess PSA-paper adhesion. The results indicate that fillers enhance the adhesion between PSA and paper. In the case of the peel tests, a combination of inter-fiber bond strength and PSA-paper adhesion determines the peel strength. While in the DCB tests, failure is isolated to the PSA-paper interface, thus allowing measurements of pure interfacial failure. (C) Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden, 2011

AB Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) is a high quality, abundant warm-season grass grown in temperate regions of the United States. While research data exists to support protein supplementation of steers grazing bermudagrass pastures, no such data exists for management of lambs and meat goat kids. The objective was to evaluate growth response of lambs and meat goat kids grazing bermudagrass with or without access to a commercial 21% CF protein tub (PT vs. NPT). Two trials were conducted in El Reno, Oklahoma, starting in June and ending in August in 2007 and 2008. In 2007 and 2008, respectively 29 and 54 meat goat kids (90 +/- 5 days of age) and 68 and 62 lambs of wool and hair breeds (and reciprocal crosses; 100 +/- 15 days of age) were utilized. Animals were stratified by weight, breed and gender and randomly assigned to 1.2 ha of common bermudagrass pasture with (n = 2) or without (n = 2) access to a commercial 21% CP protein tub. Growth of animals was assessed by change in body weights and serum concentrations of leptin every 2 weeks during grazing periods of 71 days for 2007 and 56 days for 2008. Sheep had greater ADO than goats (p<0.05) and breeds of sheep differed in ADO (p <= 0.05). Ad libitum protein supplementation tubs had no effect on ADO or serum leptin of either lambs or kids grazing bermudagrass. These data do not support the need for protein supplementation of lambs and meat goat kids grazing bermudagrass.

AB The effects of active dry yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae boulardii (Scb), on the immune/cortisol response and subsequent mortality to Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration were evaluated in newly weaned piglets (26.1 +/- 3.4 d of age). Barrows were assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups: with (Scb; n = 15) and without (control; n = 15) the in-feed inclusion of Scb (200 g/t) for 16 d. On d 16, all piglets were dosed via indwelling jugular catheters with LPS (25 mu g/kg of BW) at 0 h. Serial blood samples were collected at 30-min intervals from -1 to 6 h and then at 24 h. Differential blood cell populations were enumerated hourly from 0 to 6 h and at 24 h. Serum cortisol, IL-1 beta, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) concentrations were determined via porcine-specific ELISA at all time points. In Scb-treated piglets, cumulative ADG increased (P < 0.05) by 39.9% and LPS-induced piglet mortality was reduced 20% compared with control piglets. White blood cells, lymphocytes, and neutrophils were increased (P < 0.05) in Scb-treated animals before LPS dosing compared with control piglets before being equally suppressed (P < 0.05) from baseline in both treatments after LPS dosing with a return to baseline by 24 h. Suppression of circulating cortisol concentrations (P < 0.05) was observed in Scb-treated piglets from -1 h to 1 h relative to LPS dosing compared with control animals before both peaked equally and subsequently returned to baseline. Peak production (P < 0.05) of IL-1 beta and IL-6 was less in Scb-treated piglets after LPS administration compared with controls before both equally returned to baseline. Peak TNF-alpha production in Scb-treated animals was accelerated 0.5 h and was greater (P < 0.05) than peak production in control piglets, after which both equally returned to baseline. The peak production of IFN-gamma was greater and had increased (P < 0.05) amplitude persistence for 3 h in Scb-treated animals compared with control piglets before both equally returned to baseline. These results highlight the previously unidentified effects of Scb administration on immune and cortisol responses and the subsequent impact on growth and endotoxin-induced mortality in weaned piglets.

AB To determine the effects of maternal Se intake and plane of nutrition during mid or late gestation or both on AA concentrations and metabolite concentrations in the dam and fetus, pregnant ewe lambs (n = 64) were assigned to 1 of 8 treatments arranged in a 2 x 2 x 2 factorial array: Se level [initiated at breeding; adequate (ASe; 3.05 mu g/kg of BW) or high (HSe; 70.4 mu g/kg of BW)] and nutritional level [100% (control; CON) or 60% (restricted; RES) of NRC recommendations] fed at different times of gestation [d 50 to 90 (mid) or d 91 to 132 (late)]. A blood sample was obtained from each ewe and fetus on d 132 of gestation and used to measure circulating concentrations of glucose, NEFA, blood urea N, and AA. The late RES ewes and their fetuses had less (P <= 0.03) circulating glucose compared with late CON ewes and fetuses at d 132; however, no effect (P >= 0.14) of diet on the fetal: maternal glucose concentration ratio was observed. Late RES ewes had a smaller (P = 0.01) fetal: maternal NEFA ratio compared with late CON ewes. Ewes fed ASe had a greater (P = 0.01) fetal: maternal blood urea N ratio compared with HSe ewes. Fetal: maternal ratios of total circulating AA, total essential AA, and total nonessential AA were each affected (P <= 0.03) by the combination of Se treatment and late gestation nutritional level.

AB A galactoglucomannan oligosaccharide (GGMO) obtained from fiberboard production was evaluated as a dietary supplement for dogs. The GGMO substrate contained increased concentrations of oligosaccharides containing mannose, xylose, and glucose, with the mannose component accounting for 35% of DM. Adult dogs assigned to a 6 x 6 Latin square design were fed 6 diets, each containing a different concentration of supplemental GGMO (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 8%) that replaced dietary cellulose. Total tract DM and OM apparent digestibilities increased (P < 0.001) linearly, whereas total tract CP apparent digestibility decreased (P < 0.001) linearly as dietary GGMO substrate concentration increased. Fecal concentrations of acetate, propionate, and total short-chain fatty acids increased (P <= 0.001) linearly, whereas butyrate concentration decreased (P <= 0.001) linearly with increasing dietary concentrations of GGMO. Fecal pH decreased (P <= 0.001) linearly as dietary GGMO substrate concentration increased, whereas fecal score increased quadratically (P <= 0.001). Fecal phenol (P <= 0.05) and indole (P <= 0.01) concentrations decreased linearly with GGMO supplementation. Fecal biogenic amine concentrations were not different among treatments except for phenylethylamine, which decreased (P < 0.001) linearly as dietary GGMO substrate concentration increased. Fecal microbial concentrations of Escherichia coli, Lactobacillus spp., and Clostridium perfringens were not different among treatments. A quadratic increase (P <= 0.01) was noted for Bifidobacterium spp. as dietary GGMO substrate concentration increased. The data suggest positive nutritional properties of supplemental GGMO when incorporated in a good-quality dog food.

AB Twelve mature Angora does were used in a replicated 3 x 3 Latin square to determine effects of feeding level on energy utilization. Fiber growth and change in tissue (nonfiber) mass were determined in the first 4 wk of 6-wk periods, preceded by 14 or 18 d of adaptation. Determination of ME intake and gas exchange measures occurred in wk 4, followed by feeding near maintenance, then fasting in wk 5 and 6 to determine the ME requirement for maintenance (ME(m)). A 60% concentrate diet was fed at levels to approximate 100, 125, and 150% of assumed ME(m) [low, medium (med), and high, respectively]. Digestibilities and diet ME/GE were not affected by treatment with different amounts of feed offered and subsequent intake near ME(m). Heat energy during fasting (261, 241, and 259 kJ/kg of BW(0.75); SEM = 8.7) and efficiency of ME used for maintenance (71.6, 69.6, and 69.2%; SEM = 2.29) were similar among treatments, although ME(m) differed (P < 0.04) between med and high (365, 344, and 377 kJ/kg of BW(0.75) for low, med, and high, respectively; SEM = 10.3). Tissue gain was less (P < 0.01) for low than for the mean of med and high (MH; -0.6, 23.7, and 29.8 g/d), although clean fiber growth only tended (P < 0.09) to differ between low and MH (5.60, 6.57, and 7.36 g/d for low, med, and high, respectively; SEM = 0.621). Intake of ME was greater (P < 0.01) for MH than for low (6.87, 8.22, and 8.41 MJ/d for low, med, and high, respectively). Total heat energy was less (P < 0.02) for low vs. MH and tended (P < 0.07) to be greater for high than for med (6.03, 6.31, and 6.77 MJ/d); mobilized tissue energy was low but greater (P < 0.02) for low vs. MH (0.16, 0.01, and 0.04 MJ/d for low, med, and high, respectively). Efficiency of ME use for fiber growth was similar among treatments (17.2, 16.3, and 17.7% for low, med, and high, respectively; SEM = 1.61). In conclusion, efficiency of ME use for fiber growth was similar to the NRC recommendation regardless of feeding level, although ME(m) was decreased perhaps because of experimental conditions used. Energy appeared partitioned to fiber growth, but preferential usage was not complete possibly because energy metabolism for tissue accretion reached a plateau with the greatest feeding level.

AB This study describes the use of spectral fingerprints acquired by flow injection(Fl)-MS and multivariate analysis to differentiate three Panax species: P. ginseng, P. quinquefolius, and P. notoginseng. Data were acquired using both high resolution and unit resolution MS, and were processed using principal component analysis (PCA), soft independent modeling of class analogy (SIMCA), partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), and a fuzzy rule-building expert system (FuRES). Both high and unit resolution MS allowed discrimination among the three Panax species. PLS-DA and FuRES provided classification with 100% accuracy while SIMCA provided classification accuracies of 77 and 88% by high-and low-resolution MS, respectively. The method does not quantify any of the sample components. With FI-MS, the analysis time was less than 2 min.

AB The objective of this study was to develop a systematic and flexible method for assembling multiplex simple sequence repeat marker panels for high-throughput genome analysis in the tomato, Solanum lycopersicum, for varietal identification and to demonstrate the technical viability of these genetic markers for use in the enforcement of U.S. Department of Agriculture marketing order-based identity preservation programs. GeneMapper, a semiautomated software tool, was used for designing multiplex panels, allele identification, and polymorphism pattern evaluation of diverse tomato cultivars. Semiautonnated genotyping was performed on a set of 12 microsatellite markers providing genome-wide coverage of the tomato chromosomes. Microsatellites were detected with fluorescently labeled primers grouped into five multiplex panels, and each primer pair was assessed in replicated trials for reliability of allele size estimates. Allele sizes for each locus were compared, and a database for 34 tomato varieties was developed. The microsatellite marker set identified distinct allelic peaks and unique genetic fingerprints for each of the studied tomato varieties. A "blind testing" exercise with UglyRipe (TM) and Vintage Ripe (TM) tomato varieties, using the above set of markers and database, further established the usefulness of these microsatellite markers for tomato commodity marketing order enforcement.

DT Article
DE Honey bees; overwinter; mortality; USA; 2009-2010
AB This study records the fourth consecutive year of high winter losses in managed honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies in the USA. Over the winter of 2009-2010, US beekeepers responding to this survey lost an average of 42.2% of their colonies, for a total loss of 34.4%. Commercial beekeepers (those operating more than 500 colonies) experienced lower total losses as compared to sideline and backyard beekeepers. Similarly, operations that maintained colonies in more than one state and operations that pollinated almond orchards over the survey period had lower total losses than operations either managing colonies in one state exclusively or those not pollinating almonds. On average beekeepers consider acceptable losses to be 14.5%, and 65% of all responding beekeepers suffered losses in excess of what they considered acceptable. The proportion of operations that experienced losses and reported having no dead bees in their colonies or apiaries was comparable to that reported in the winter of 2008-2009. Manageable conditions, such as starvation and a weak condition in the fall were the leading self-identified causes of mortality as reported by all beekeepers. Commercial beekeepers were, however, less likely to list such manageable causes, instead listing poor queens, mites, and pesticides most frequently as the self-identified causes of mortality in their operations.

   COLONIZATION; ACCUMULATION; BACTERIA; CROPS; YIELD
AB Aims:
   Glyphosate-resistant (GR) soybean production increases each year because of the efficacy of glyphosate for weed management. A new or 'second' generation of GR soybean (GR2) is now commercially available for farmers that is being promoted as higher yielding relative to the previous, 'first generation' (GR1) cultivars. Recent reports show that glyphosate affects the biology and ecology of rhizosphere micro-organisms in GR soybean that affect yield. The objective of this research was to evaluate the microbiological interactions in the rhizospheres of GR2 and GR1 soybean and the performance of the cultivars with different rates of glyphosate applied at different growth stages.
   Methods and Results:
   A greenhouse study was conducted using GR1 and GR2 soybean cultivars grown in a silt loam soil. Glyphosate was applied at V2, V4 and V6 growth stages at three rates. Plants harvested at R1 growth stage had high root colonization by Fusarium spp.; reduced rhizosphere fluorescent pseudomonads, Mn-reducing bacteria, and indoleacetic acid-producing rhizobacteria; and reduced shoot and root biomass.
   Conclusions:
   Glyphosate applied to GR soybean, regardless of cultivar, negatively impacts the complex interactions of microbial groups, biochemical activity and root growth that can have subsequent detrimental effects on plant growth and productivity.
   Significance and Impact of the Study:
   The information presented here will be crucial in developing strategies to overcome the potential detrimental effects of glyphosate in GR cropping systems.

AB Cattle are poisoned by N-(methylsuccinimido) anthranoyllycoctonine type (MSAL-type) and 7,8-methylenedioxylycoctonine type (MDL-type) norditerpenoid alkaloids in Delphinium spp. Alkaloids in D. glaucescens are primarily of the MSAL-type, while D. barbeyi is a mixture of MSAL and MDL-types. The objectives of this study were to determine and compare the toxicokinetics of selected alkaloids from D. glaucescens and D. barbeyi in cattle. The two species of larkspur were dosed to three groups of Angus steers via oral gavage at doses of 8 mg kg(-1) MSAL-type alkaloids for D. barbeyi and either 8.0 or 17.0 mg kg(-1) MSAL-type alkaloids for D. glaucescens. In cattle dosed with D. barbeyi, serum deltaline (MDL-type) concentrations peaked at 488 +/- 272 ng ml(-1) at 3 h and serum methyllycaconitine (MSAL-type) concentrations peaked at 831 +/- 369 ng ml(-1) at 6 h. Delta line was not detected in the serum of cattle dosed with D. glaucescens. Serum methyllycaconitine concentrations peaked at 497 +/- 164 ng ml(-1) at 18 h, and 1089 +/- 649 ng ml(-1) at 24 h for the 8 mg kg(-1) and 17 mg kg(-1) doses of D. glaucescens respectively. There were significant differences between the maximum serum concentrations and the area under the curve for the two doses of D. glaucescens but not D. barbeyi. Results from this experiment support the recommendation that approximately 7 days are required to clear 99% of the toxic alkaloids from the serum of animals orally dosed with D. barbeyi or D. glaucescens, and that MDL-type alkaloids play an important role in the toxicity of Delphinium spp. in cattle.

AB The digenean Bolbophorus damnificus infects commercial channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus, causing mortality, lower feed consumption, and reduced growth in surviving fish. The purpose of this study was to determine the length of time for which B. damnificus prodiplostomulum metacercariae (juvenile trematode stage that infects fish) would remain viable (parasite appearing to be intact or exhibiting movement) in channel catfish. Fish (n = 210) were infected with molecularly confirmed B. damnificus cercariae harvested from naturally infected marsh rams-horn snails Planorbella trivolvis. During the first sampling (at 20 d postinfection), 8.3 +/- 3.6 metacercariae/fish (mean +/- SD) were found in the host muscle and visceral organs. The channel catfish were then acclimated to a water temperature of either 18 degrees C or 28 degrees C. After 11 months, 6.8 +/- 3.5 and 5.9 +/- 3.0 metacercariae/fish were found in groups held at 18 degrees C and 28 degrees C, respectively. The mean number of parasites per fish did not significantly differ between fish held at the two temperatures and did not significantly decline over time at either temperature. Fish examined from 13 to 30 months postinfection all contained viable metacercariae that were morphologically and molecularly identified as B. damnificus. At 18 months, 12 metacercariae (of which 11 were intact and 10 displayed movement) were found in the one fish sampled; at 30 months, the last fish sampled contained three intact metacercariae (one displayed slight movement). Our results indicate that B. damnificus metacercariae can remain viable in channel catfish for at least an 18-30-month production cycle during which they have the potential to affect fish growth; in addition, infected fish may serve as intermediate hosts for these metacercariae for at least 2.5 years postinfection.

AB Plasmid-mediated antibiotic resistance was first discovered in Edwardsiella ictaluri in the early 1990s, and in 2007 an E. ictaluri isolate harboring an IncA/C plasmid was recovered from a moribund channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus infected with the bacterium. Due to the identification of multidrug resistance plasmids in aquaculture and their potential clinical importance, we sought to determine whether the modified live E. ictaluri vaccine strain in AQUAVAC-ESC harbors such plasmids, so that the use of this vaccine will not directly contribute to the pool of bacteria carrying plasmid-borne resistance. Antimicrobial sensitivity testing of the E. ictaluri parent isolate and vaccine strain demonstrated that both were sensitive to 15 of the 16 antimicrobials tested. Total DNA from each isolate was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using a set of 13 primer pairs specific for conserved regions of the IncA/C plasmid backbone, and no specific products were obtained. PCR-based replicon typing of the parent isolate and vaccine strain demonstrated the absence of the 18 commonly occurring plasmid incompatibility groups. These results demonstrate that the vaccine strain does not carry resistance to commonly used antimicrobials and provide strong support for the absence of IncA/C and other commonly occurring plasmid incompatibility groups. Therefore, its use should not directly contribute to the pool of bacteria carrying plasmid-borne resistance. This work highlights the importance of thoroughly investigating potential vaccine strains for the presence of plasmids or other transmissible elements that may encode resistance to antibiotics.

AB The pattern of carbon (C) allocation among the different pools is an important ecosystem structural feature, which can be modified as a result of changes in environmental conditions that can occur gradually (e.g., climatic change) or abruptly (e.g., management practices). This study quantified the C pools of plant biomass, litter and soil in an arid shrubland in Chile, comparing the natural condition (moderately disturbed by grazing) vs. the afforested condition (two-year-old plantation with Acacia saligna (Labill.) H.L Wendl.), each represented by a 60 ha plot. To estimate plant biomass, allometric functions were constructed for the four dominant woody species, based on the volume according to their shape, which showed high correlation (R-2 > 0.73). The soil was the largest C pool in both natural and afforested conditions (89% and 94%, respectively) and was significantly lower in the afforested than natural condition at all five soil depths. The natural condition had in total 36.5 ton (t) C ha(-1) compared to 21.1 t C ha(-1) in the afforested condition, mainly due to C loss during soil preparation, prior to plantation of A. saligna. These measurements serve as an important baseline to assess long-term effects of afforestation on ecosystem C pools. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Pseudomonas fluorescens Q8r1-96 represents a group of rhizosphere strains responsible for the suppressiveness of agricultural soils to take-all disease of wheat. It produces the antibiotic 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol and aggressively colonizes the roots of cereal crops. In this study, we analyzed the genome of Q8r1-96 and identified a type III protein secretion system (T3SS) gene cluster that has overall organization similar to that of the T3SS gene cluster of the plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae. We also screened a collection of 30 closely related P. fluorescens strains and detected the T3SS genes in all but one of them. The Q8r1-96 genome contained ropAA and ropM type III effector genes, which are orthologs of the P. syringae effector genes hopAA1-1 and hopM1, as well as a novel type III effector gene designated ropB. These type III effector genes encoded proteins that were secreted in culture and injected into plant cells by both P. syringae and Q8r1-96 T3SSs. The Q8r1-96 T3SS was expressed in the rhizosphere, but mutants lacking a functional T3SS were not altered in their rhizosphere competence. The Q8r1-96 type III effectors RopAA, RopB, and RopM were capable of suppressing the hypersensitive response and production of reactive oxygen species, two plant immune responses.

AB Positional cloning in bread wheat is a tedious task due to its huge genome size and hexaploid character. BAC libraries represent an essential tool for positional cloning. However, wheat BAC libraries comprise more than million clones, which makes their screening very laborious. Here, we present a targeted approach based on chromosome-specific BAC libraries. Such libraries were constructed from flow-sorted arms of wheat chromosome 7D. A library from the short arm (7DS) consisting of 49,152 clones with 113 kb insert size represented 12.1 arm equivalents whereas a library from the long arm (7DL) comprised 50,304 clones of 116 kb providing 14.9x arm coverage. The 7DS library was PCR screened with markers linked to Russian wheat aphid resistance gene DnCI2401, the 7DL library was screened by hybridization with a probe linked to greenbug resistance gene Gb3. The small number of clones combined with high coverage made the screening highly efficient and cost effective.

AB The emerald ash borer (EAB; Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire; Coleoptera: Buprestidae), is an exotic wood-boring beetle that has been threatening North American ash (Fraxinus spp.) resources since its discovery in Michigan and Ontario in 2002. In this study, we investigated the phytochemical responses of the three most common North American ash species (black, green, and white ash) in northeastern USA to EAB adult feeding. Black ash was the least responsive to EAB adult feeding in terms of the induction of volatile compounds, and levels of only two (indole and benzyl cyanide) of the 11 compounds studied increased. In green ash, levels of two [(E)-beta-ocimene and indole] of the 11 volatile compounds studied were elevated, while the levels of two green leaf volatiles [hexanal and (E)-2-hexenal] decreased. White ash showed the greatest response with an increase in levels of seven of the 11 compounds studied. Qualitative differences among ash species were detected. Among the phenolic compounds detected, ligustroside was the only one detected in all three species. Oleuropein aglycone and 2 unidentified compounds were found only in black ash; coumaroylquinic acid and feruloylquinic acid were detected only in green ash; and verbascoside hexoside was detected only in white ash. EAB adult feeding did not elicit or decrease concentrations of any selected individual phenolic compounds. However, although levels of total phenolics from black and green ash foliage were not affected by EAB adult feeding, they decreased significantly in white ash. EAB adult feeding elevated chymotrypsin inhibitors in black ash. The possible ecological implications of these findings are discussed.

AB Soy isoflavones exert inconsistent bone density-preserving effects, but the bone strength preserving effects in humans are unknown. Our double-blind randomized controlled trial examined 2 soy isoflavone doses (80 or 120 mg/d) vs placebo tablets on volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) and strength (by means of peripheral quantitative computed tomography) in healthy postmenopausal women (46-63 yr). We measured 3-yr changes in cortical BMD (CtBMD), cortical thickness (CtThk), periosteal circumference (PC), endosteal circumference (EC), and strength-strain index (SSI) at 1/3 midshaft femur (N = 171), and trabecular BMD (TbBMD), PC, and SSI at 4% distal tibia (N = 162). We found no treatment effect on femur CtThk, PC, or EC, or tibia TbBMD or PC. The strongest predictors (negative) of tibia TbBMD and SSI and femur CtBMD were timepoint and bone resorption; whole-body fat mass was protective of SSI. As time since last menstrual period (TLMP) increased (p = 0.012), 120-mg/d dose was protective of CtBMD. The strongest predictors of femur SSI were timepoint, bone resorption, and TLMP (protective). Isoflavone tablets were negative predictors of SSI, but 80-mg/d dose became protective as bone turnover increased (p = 0.011). Soy isoflavone treatment for 3 yr was modestly beneficial for midshaft femur vBMD as TLMP increased and for midshaft femur SSI as bone turnover increased.

AB Cancer cells have an efficient antioxidant system to counteract their increased generation of ROS However, whether this ability to survive high levels of ROS has an important role in the growth and metastasis of tumors' is not well understood Here, we demonstrate that the redox protein thioredoxin-like 2 (TXNL2) regulates the growth and metastasis of human breast cancer cells through a redox signaling mechanism TXNL2 was found to be overexpressed in human cancers, including breast cancers Knockdown of TXNL2 in human breast cancer cell lines increased ROS levels and reduced NF-kappa B activity, resulting m inhibition of in vitro proliferation, survival, and invasion In addition, TXNL2 knockdown inhibited tumorigenesis and metastasis of these cells upon transplantation into immunodeficient mice Furthermore, analysis of primary breast cancer samples demonstrated that enhanced TXNL2 expression correlated with metastasis to the lung and brain and with decreased overall patient survival Our studies provided insight into redox-based mechanisms underlying tumor growth and metastasis and suggest that TXNL2 could be a target for treatment of breast cancer

AB Although widely used for the characterization of the transmission of intestinal Cryptosporidium spp., genotyping tools are not available for C. muris and C. andersoni, two of the most common gastric Cryptosporidium spp. infecting mammals. In this study, we screened the C. muris whole-genome sequencing data for microsatellite and minisatellite sequences. Among the 13 potential loci (6 microsatellite and 7 minisatellite loci) evaluated by PCR and DNA sequencing, 4 were eventually chosen. DNA sequence analyses of 27 C. muris and 17 C. andersoni DNA preparations showed the presence of 5 to 10 subtypes of C. muris and 1 to 4 subtypes of C. andersoni at each locus. Altogether, 11 C. muris and 7 C. andersoni multilocus sequence typing (MLST) subtypes were detected among the 16 C. muris and 12 C. andersoni specimens successfully sequenced at all four loci. In all analyses, the C. muris isolate (TS03) that originated from an East African mole rat differed significantly from other C. muris isolates, approaching the extent of genetic differences between C. muris and C. andersoni. Thus, an MLST technique was developed for the high-resolution typing of C. muris and C. andersoni. It should be useful for the characterization of the population genetics and transmission of gastric Cryptosporidium spp.

AB Heat stress (HT) and photoperiod affect milk production and immune status of dairy cows. The objective was to evaluate the effects of HT abatement prepartum under controlled photoperiod on hepatic metabolic gene expression and cellular immune function of periparturient Holstein cows (n = 21). Cows were dried off 46 d before expected calving date and assigned to treatments by mature equivalent milk production. The treatments were 1) HT and 2) cooling (CL), both imposed during a photoperiod of 14L:10D. Rectal temperature was measured twice daily, whereas respiration rate was measured 3 times/wk at 1500 h during the entire dry period. After calving, cows were housed in a freestall barn with cooling, and milk yield was recorded daily up to 140 d in milk. Liver samples were taken at dry off, 20, 2, and 20 d relative to calving by biopsy. Under a similar schedule, neutrophil function was determined in blood of cows on HT (n = 12) and CL (n = 9). Blood samples were taken on 46, 32, 18, 0, 14, 28, and 42 d relative to calving for measurement of metabolites and were collected twice daily from 7 to 2 d relative to calving for prolactin (PRL) analysis. The HT cows had greater concentrations of PRL at 0 d relative to calving (150 vs. 93; SEM = 11 ng/mL) and had higher afternoon rectal temperatures (39.4 vs. 39.0; SEM = 0.04 degrees C) and elevated respiration rates (78 vs. 56; SEM = 2 breaths/min) during the prepartum period compared with CL cows. Relative to HT cows, CL cows had greater hepatic expression of PRL-R, SOCS-3, and CAV-1 mRNA. Neutrophil oxidative burst was greater in CL cows relative to HT cows at 2 d (61 vs. 42; SEM = 6%) and at 20 d (62 vs. 49; SEM = 5%) relative to calving, and phagocytosis was greater in CL cows at 20 d (47 vs. 33; SEM = 4%) relative to calving compared with HT cows. Humoral response, as measured by IgG secretion against ovalbumin challenge, was greater for CL cows at 32 d (0.44 vs. 0.33; SEM = 0.05 OD) and 21 d (0.60 vs. 0.50 +/- 0.04 OD) relative to calving compared with HT cows. These results suggest that HT abatement during the dry period improved innate and acquired immune status as measured by neutrophil function and immunoglobulin secretion against ovalbumin challenge, and altered hepatic gene expression related to PRL signaling in the periparturient period or subsequent lactation.

AB P>1. Indirect plant defences are well documented for the above-ground constituents of plants. Although less investigated to date, below-ground defences that mediate multitrophic interactions are equally important. Entomopathogenic nematodes (Steinernema diaprepesi) are attracted to herbivore-induced volatiles from Swingle var. (Citrus paradisi x Poncirus trifoliata) when fed upon by root weevil, Diaprepes abbreviatus.
   2. We examined the extent to which below-ground volatiles modify behaviour of nematode species representing various foraging strategies (cruisers versus ambushers) and trophic levels (plant parasites versus entomopathogens). We compared attraction to volatiles of weevil-infested and non-infested roots from Swingle citrus rootstock and a parent line of the Swingle hybrid, Poncirus trifoliata (Pt).
   3. Swingle weevil-infested roots attracted more nematodes than non-infested roots irrespective of nematode foraging strategy and trophic status. The parental line, Pt, attracted all nematode species irrespective of insect herbivory.
   4. Dynamic in situ collection and GC-MS analysis of volatiles from soil revealed that Pt roots release attracting cues constitutively. A different non-hybrid citrus species (sour orange, Citrus aurantium) released nematode attracting cues only in response to larval feeding, similar to responses found in Swingle. Volatile collections from above- and below-ground portions of citrus plants revealed that above-ground feeding by weevils does not induce production of nematode attracting cues analogous to that induced by root damage, nor does damage by larvae below-ground induce a similar volatile above ground.
   5. Synthesis. Our results suggest that release of nematode attractants by citrus roots occurs broadly and can be constant or herbivore-induced. The major constituent of this indirect defence is produced by roots and not shoots and in response to below-ground, but not above-ground herbivory. Our findings suggest that this cue acts on nematode species broadly, attracting entomopathogenic nematodes that exhibit various foraging strategies. Unexpectedly, we also found that this cue attracts a plant parasitic nematode species. It appears, thus, that release of nematode attracting cues by citrus plants can cause ecological costs. The plants, however, appear to counteract against these costs, because constitutive release was found only in a cultivar that is resistant to phytopathogenic nematodes, while herbivore-induced release occurred in lines susceptible to pathogenic nematode species.

AB P>1. Plant defence theory provides a robust framework for understanding interactions between plants and antagonists, and for interpreting broad patterns in the functional-trait composition of plant communities. However, this framework has been built almost entirely on traits expressed by seedlings and mature plants.
   2. No equivalent seed defence theory exists that recognizes the distinct suite of natural enemies that seeds encounter, and the unique constraints to their response. Furthermore, most attention has been paid to insect and vertebrate seed predators active above ground, whereas microbes in soil also have large effects on seed survival, particularly for plants that recruit from soil seed banks.
   3. We suggest that concurrent selection on seed dormancy and resistance to microbial antagonists should result in distinct seed defence syndromes. We predict that species with physical seed dormancy will rely on physical defences to exclude predators and pathogens, and rapid seed germination to escape pathogens at the emergence stage. In contrast, species with physiological seed dormancy will deploy a continuum of physical and chemical defences, depending on soil pathogen pressure and duration of seed persistence. Finally, seeds of some species persist in the soil in a non-dormant, imbibed state, and lack obvious chemical and physical defences. These seeds may be especially dependent upon protection from beneficial seed-inhabiting microbes.
   4. Framing a general 'seed defence theory' may help to account for the distribution of seed dormancy types across ecosystems. We predict that physiological dormancy will be favoured in dry or well-drained environments where pathogen pressure is relatively low, germination cues are most unpredictable, and seedling recruitment success is most variable. In contrast, physical dormancy should be favoured in warm and moist environments where pathogen pressure is high, and where germination cues are a stronger predictor of recruitment success. Persistent, non-dormant seeds are restricted to relatively aseasonal environments where favourable conditions for recruitment can occur over most of the year.
   5. Synthesis. Integrating seed defence and dormancy traits can provide new insights into selection on dormancy types, and will help elucidate major trends in seed ecology and evolution. Understanding how seeds are defended also may improve our ability to predict plant regeneration and help develop innovative management strategies for weedy and invasive species.

AB Fat bodies are a crucial source of energy for insect survival and reproduction. Differing states, or conditions, of fat body cells and amounts have been previously reported for southern green stink bug, Nezara viridula L., but clear supporting images are lacking. Further, in ongoing studies elucidating the ecology of southern green stink bug in the southern United States, additional fat body cell conditions in the abdomen were observed that had not been previously reported, and findings are presented here. Four fat body cell conditions were characterized based on appearance as: (1) cloudy, white, and oily, (2) spongy, white; (3) spongy, yellow, and, (4) honeycomb. Amounts of fat body cells in abdomens were categorized as: abundant, intermediate, and lean. This report improves the sole extant schematic of fat body cell conditions by presenting images relating to newly identified fat body cells conditions, and provides the first visuals depicting the amounts of fat body cells that can be encountered in adult southern green stink bugs. These findings are critical components in elucidating the biology and ecology of the southern green stink bug.

AB We present the idea of using potential infringements on annual allowable harvest targets as an approach to estimate threats from invasive species to the forest products sector The approach uses present-day harvest levels as a reference level to estimate when and where the impact of a nonnative forest pest could become economically damaging We use a generic model that simulates spread and damage by nonnative invasive species basic harvest and forest growth through time The concept is Illustrated with a case study of a new nonnative invasive pest Sirex noctilio Fabricius on pine resources in eastern Canada Impacts of invasion on wood supply in particular the point at which present-day harvest levels are not attainable were identified for 77 non-overlapping geographical regions that delimit the primary wood supply areas around large mills and wood processing facilities in eastern Canada The results identify the minimum area of a pest outbreak that could trigger harvest shortages (approximately 12 5-14 M ha of pine forests in Ontario and Quebec) Beyond this level the amount of host resource available for harvesting in any given year declines rapidly The failure to sustain broad-scale harvest targets may be an attractive and intuitive indicator for policy makers and regulators interested in developing control and slow-the-spread programs for non-native forest pests Crown Copyright (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved

AB Coagulants such as alum [Al(2)(SO(4))(3)center dot 14H(2)O], FeCl(3), or Fe(2)(SO(4))(3) are commonly used to remove particulate and dissolved constituents from water supplies in the production of drinking water. The resulting waste product, called water-treatment residuals (WTR), contains precipitated Al and Fe oxyhydroxides, resulting in a strong affinity for anionic species. Recent research has focused on using WTR as cost-effective materials to reduce soluble phosphorus (P) in soils, runoff, and land-applied organic wastes (manures and biosolids). Studies show P adsorption by WTR to be fast and nearly irreversible, suggesting long-term stable immobilization of WTR-bound P. Because excessive WTR application can induce P deficiency in crops, effective application rates and methods remain an area of intense research. Removal of other potential environmental contaminants [ClO(4)(-), Se(+IV and +VI), As(+III and +V), and Hg] by WTR has been documented, suggesting potential use of WTR in environmental remediation. Although the creation of Al plant toxicity and enhanced Al leaching are concerns expressed by researchers, these effects are minimal at circumneutral soil pH conditions. Radioactivity, trace element levels, and enhanced Mn leaching have also been cited as potential problems in WTR usage as a soil supplement. However, these issues can be managed so as not to limit the beneficial use of WTR in controlling off-site P losses to sensitive water bodies or reducing soil-extractable P concentrations.

AB Reports of enhanced atrazine degradation and reduced residual weed control have increased in recent years, sparking interest in identifying factors contributing to enhanced atrazine degradation. The objectives of this study were to (i) assess the spatial distribution of enhanced atrazine degradation in 45 commercial farm fields in northeastern Colorado (Kit Carson, Larimer, Logan, Morgan, Phillips, and Yuma counties) where selected cultural management practices and soil bio-chemo-physical properties were quantified; (ii) utilize Classification and Regression Tree (CART) Analysis to identify cultural management practices and (or) soil bio-chemophysical attributes that are associated with enhanced atrazine degradation; and (iii) translate our CART Analysis into a model that predicts relative atrazine degradation rate (rapid, moderate, or slow) as a function of known management practices and (or) soil properties. Enhanced atrazine degradation was widespread within a 300-km radius across northeastern Colorado, with approximately 44% of the fields demonstrating rapid atrazine degradation activity (laboratory-based dissipation time half-life [DT(50)] < 3 d). The most rapid degradation rates occurred in fields that received the most frequent atrazine applications. Classification and Regression Tree Analysis resulted in a prediction model that correctly classified soils with rapid atrazine DT(50) 80% of the time and soils with slow degradation (DT(50) > 8 d) 62.5% of the time. Significant factors were recent atrazine use history, soil pH, and organic matter content. The presence/absence of atzC polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product was not a significant predictor variable for atrazine DT(50). In conclusion, enhanced atrazine degradation is widespread in northeastern Colorado. If producers know their atrazine use history, soil pH, and OM content, they should be able to identify fields exhibiting enhanced atrazine degradation using our CART Model.

AB Winter application of manure poses environmental risks. Seven continuous corn, instrumented watersheds (approximately 1 ha each) at the USDA-ARS North Appalachian Experimental Watershed research station near Coshocton, Ohio were used to evaluate the environmental impacts of winter manure application when using some of the Ohio Natural Resources Conservation Service recommendations. For 3 yr on frozen, sometimes snow-covered, ground in January or February, two watersheds received turkey litter, two received liquid swine manure, and three were control plots that received N fertilizer at planting (not manure). Manure was applied at an N rate for corn; the target level was 180 kg N ha(-1) with a 30-m setback from the application area to the bottom of each watershed. Four grassed plots (61 x 12 m) were used for beef slurry application (9.1 Mg ha(-1) wet weight); two plots had 61 x 12 m grassed filter areas below them, and two plots had 30 x 12 m filter areas. There were two control plots. Nutrient concentrations were sometimes high, especially in runoff soon after application. However, most events with high concentrations occurred with low flow volumes; therefore, transport was minimal. Applying manure at the N rate for crop needs resulted in excess application of P. Elevated P losses contributed to a greater potential of detrimental environmental impacts with P than with N. Filter strips reduced nutrient concentrations and transport, but the data were too limited to compare the effectiveness of the 30- and 61-m filter strips. Winter application of manure is not ideal, but by following prescribed guidelines, detrimental environmental impacts can be reduced.

AB Comprehensive mitigation strategies for gaseous emissions from broiler operations requires knowledge of the litters' physical and chemical properties, gas evolution, bird effects, as well as broiler house management and structure. This research estimated broiler litter surface fluxes for ammonia (NH(3)), nitrous oxide (N(2)O), and carbon dioxide (CO(2)). Ancillary measurements of litter temperature, litter total N, ammonium (NH(4)(+)), total C content, moisture, and pH were also made. Grid sampling was imposed over the floor area of two commercial broiler houses at the beginning (Day 1), middle (Day 23), and end (Day 43) of a winter and subsequent summer flock housed on reused pine shavings litter. The grid was composed of 36 points, three locations across the width, and 12 locations down the length of the houses. To observe feeder and waterer (F/W) influences on the parameters, eight additional sample locations were added in a crisscross pattern among these automated supply lines. Color variograms illustrate the nature of parameter changes within each flock and between seasons. Overall trends for the NH(3), N(2)O, and CO(2) gas fluxes indicate an increase in magnitude with bird age during a flock for both summer and winter, but flux estimates were reduced in areas where compacted litter (i.e., caked litter or cake) formed at the end of the flocks (at F/W locations and in the fan area). End of flock gas fluxes were estimated at 1040 mg NH(3) m(-2) h(-1), 20 mg N(2)O m(-2) h(-1), and 24,200 mg CO(2) m(-2) h(-1) in winter; and 843 mg NH(3) m(-2) h(-1), 18 mg N(2)O m(-2) h(-1), and 27,200 mg CO(2) m(-2) h(-1) in summer. The results of intensive sample efforts during winter and summer flocks, reported visually using contour plots, off er a resource to the poultry industry and researchers for creating new management strategies for improving production and controlling gas evolution. Particularly, efforts could focus on designing housing systems that minimize extremes in litter compaction. The extremes are undesirable with more friable litter prone to greater gas evolution and more compacted litter providing a slippery, disease-sustaining surface.

AB The mechanism of biphenyl biodegradation by Pseudomonas stutzeri was studied. Growth curves on biphenyl were measured, along with dissolution kinetics of biphenyl and production of biosurfactants by the bacterium. Biphenyl was supplied as pure crystals (the crystal biphenyl), adsorbed to Chromosorb G (the Chromosorb G biphenyl) or XAD-4 particles (the XAD-4 biphenyl). No lag phase was observed on the crystal biphenyl, while this period lasted 3.5-6.0 hours on the Chromosorb G biphenyl. The linear specific growth rates (LSGRs) ranged from 2.00 x 10-4 to 293 x 10-4 dry weight grams/L/h (d.w.g/L/h) on these two substrates. The LSGR values were directly proportional to the interfacial area between the solid substrate and the microbial suspension. The XAD-4 biphenyl was not bioavailable to the bacterium. The zero-order rates of dissolution ranged from 2.3 x 10-5to 8.0 x 10-4 g/L/h on the crystal biphenyl and the Chromosorb G biphenyl. No biosurfactant production was observed on any biphenyl substrate. Growth curves, results of dissolution measurements and the scanning electron microscope (SEM) images indicate that Pseudomonas stutzeri takes up biphenyl from the aqueous phase as well as the solid phase of the crystal and the Chromosorb G biphenyl. The mechanism of uptake depends on the initial biphenyl concentration and the particle diameter of the biphenyl substrate.

AB Accurate estimations of indicator microorganisms' concentrations are necessary to properly monitor water quality and manage contamination from agricultural land runoffs. In this study, Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA) statistical methods were compared for accuracy in the prediction of manure-borne microorganisms' concentrations in runoffs from agricultural plots (0.75 m x 2 m) treated with cattle or swine manure. Field rainfall simulation tests were initiated on days 4, 32, 62, 123, and 354 between June 2002 and May 2003. Each rainfall event produced 35 mm rainfall for 30 min at the intensity of 70 mm hr(-1) at 24-intervals. Concentrations of microbial indicators were correlated with hydrological and environmental water quality parameters including water runoff, erosion, air temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation, pH, electric conductivity (EC) and turbidity to determine their impacts on microbial fate and transport. ANNs demonstrated a better ability to model the nonlinearity of land application of manure to ensure the safety of agricultural water environments.

AB A monoclonal antibody-based competitive antibody-coated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed and optimized for determining chlorpyrifos residue in agricultural products. The IC50 and IC10 of this ELISA were 3.3 ng/mL and 0.1 ng/mL respectively. The average recoveries in six agricultural products were between 79.5% and 118.0%, with the intra-assay coefficient of variation being less than 8 %. The limit of detection for all tested products was 30 ng/g. To the best of our knowledge, this assay has the best specificity among all the published research on ELISAs for chlorpyrifos.

AB Pathogenic bacteria attached to the hide or shed in the feces of cattle at slaughter can contaminate carcasses intended to be processed for human consumption. Therefore, new pre-harvest interventions are needed to prevent the carriage and excretion of foodborne pathogens in cattle presented to the processing plant. The objectives of this study were to examine the antimicrobial effects of hydrolysable tannin-rich chestnut and condensed tannin-rich mimosa extracts on bacterial indicators of foodborne pathogens when applied as a hide-intervention and as a feed additive to feedlot cattle. Water (control) or solutions (3 % wt/vol) of chestnut- and mimosa-extract treatments were sprayed (25 mL) at the left costal side of each animal to a 1000 cm2 area, divided in four equal quadrants. Hide-swabs samples obtained at pre-, 2-min, 8-h, and 24-h post-spray application were cultured to enumerate Escherichia coli/total coliforms and total aerobic plate counts. In a second experiment, diets supplemented without (controls) or with (1.5 % of diet dry matter) chestnut- or mimosa-extracts were fed during a 42-day experimental feeding period. Weekly fecal samples starting on day 0, and rumen fluid obtained on days 0, 7, 21 or 42 were cultured to enumerate E.coli/total coliforms and Campylobacter. Tannin spray application showed no effect of treatment or post-application-time (P 0.05) on measured bacterial populations, averaging 1.7/1.8, 1.5/1.6 and 1.5/1.7 (log10 CFU/cm2) for E. coli/total coliforms, and 4.0, 3.4 and 4.2 (log10CFU/cm2) in total aerobes for control, chestnut and mimosa treatments, respectively. Mean (+/- SEM) ruminal E. coli and total coliform concentrations (log10 CFU/mL) were reduced (P 0.01) in steers fed chestnut-tannins (3.6 and 3.8 +/- 0.1) in comparison with the controls (4.1 and 4.2 +/- 0.1). Fecal E. coli concentrations were affected by treatment (P 0.01), showing the highest values (log10 CFU/g) in fecal contents from mimosa-fed steers compared to controls (5.9 versus 5.6 +/- 0.1 SEM, respectively). Total coliforms (log CFU/g) showed the highest values (P 0.01) in feces from chestnut- and mimosa-fed steers (6.0 and 6.1 +/- 0.1 respectively) in comparison with controls (5.7 +/- 0.1). Fecal Campylobacter concentrations (log10CFU/g) were affected by treatment (P 0.05), day (P 0.001) and their interaction (P 0.01) with the controls having lower concentrations than chestnut- and mimosa-fed steers (0.4, 1.0, and 0.8 +/- 0.3, respectively). It was concluded that under our research conditions, tannins were not effective in decreasing measured bacterial populations on beef cattle hides. Additionally, chestnut tannin reduced E. coli and total coliforms within the rumen but the antimicrobial effect was not maintained in the lower gastrointestinal tract. Further research is necessary to elucidate the possible antimicrobial effects of tannins at site-specific locations of the gastrointestinal tract in beef cattle fed high-grain and high-forage diets.

AB This study was a pen trial in which the effects of adding different rates of liquid aluminum chloride (AlCl3) on litter pH, total volatile fatty acids (VFAs), and ammonia (NH3) fluxes was evaluated. Liquid AlCl3 treatments used in this study were sprayed on the rice hull surface at rates of 100 g, 200 g, and 300 g liquid AlCl3/kg rice hulls; untreated rice hulls served as controls. Litter pH, total VFAs, and NH3 fluxes were all lowered (P 0.05) by all of the liquid AlCl3 treatments compared with controls during certain times of the 5 week study. However, there were no significant differences among treatments on litter pH at the end of the study (from 3 to 5 weeks) or NH3 fluxes at beginning of the study (0 to 3 weeks). Total VFAs were reduced 16 %, 29 %, and 53 % by 100 g liquid AlCl3/kg rice hulls, 200 g liquid AlCl3/kg rice hulls, and 300 g liquid AlCl3/kg rice hulls, respectively. Liquid AlCl3additions reduced NH3 fluxes by 35 %, 57 % and 67 %, respectively, at the low, medium and high rates. In summary, these results indicate that adding liquid aluminum chloride to rice hulls would be a useful tool in reducing the negative environmental impact of poultry litter. It should be noted that the decreased VFA production and NH3 volatilization was chiefly associated with reduction in litter pH.

AB Soil fumigation to control pests and pathogens is an important part of current agricultural practice. A reduction in fumigant emissions is required to ensure worker safety and environment health. A field trial in Florida was conducted to investigate whether carbonating Telone C35 (TM)((Z)- and (E)-1,3-dichloropropene with 35 % chloropicrin) would improve the delivery of the fumigant to such an extent that the application rate could be decreased without sacrificing efficacy. All treatments were carried out in three replications in a complete block design. The use of carbon dioxide (CO2) to carbonate and pressurize Telone C35 provided quicker and deeper distribution initially compared to application by nitrogen gas (N-2) pressurization. The deeper distribution of Telone C35 components found with CO2 application may have lowered the initial concentration of Telone C35, but it did not appreciably alter the disappearance rate of the three chemicals, chloropicrin, (Z)- and (E)-1,3-dichloropropene. The faster vertical distribution within the bedded soil of the Telone C35 by CO2 did enhance volatilization of the active ingredients into the atmosphere compared to volatilization of similar reduced rate applied by N-2 pressurization. However, the cumulative amount volatilized from the carbonated fumigant beds at 75 % application rate was lower than the cumulative amount emitted by full rate of Telone C35 using N-2. The efficacy of the carbonated Telone C35 at a lower application rate was statistically equivalent to that of non-carbonated fumigant using N-2 pressurized injection at a higher application rate, based on weed enumeration and the root-knot nematode galling index.

AB Analytical methods to improve the detection of erythromycin in water and sediment were developed to optimize for erythromycin's recovery of extractable and bound residues from the aquatic environment. The objective of this study was to determine optimal recovery of erythromycin from water and sediment to improve its detection in environmental samples through solid-phase extraction (SPE) and sediment-extraction methods. SPE methods examined included previously reported methods for macrolide and sulfonamide antibiotics with erythromycin recoveries ranging from 75.5 % to 94.7 %. Extraction of erythromycin was performed from sand employing various solvents and buffers to determine the best method for extraction from two sandy loam pond sediments. Various extraction times were also examined, and all extraction procedures were performed in duplicate. The greatest recovery of (14)C-erythromycin in the Iowa sediment was 84 % using 0.3 M ammonium acetate at pH 4.2: acetonitrile (15:85, v/v) solution. The Oklahoma sediment yielded the greatest recovery of (14)C-erythromycin at 86.7 % with 0.3 M ammonium acetate at pH 7: acetonitrile (30:70, v/v) with a 60-minute shake time. The present results demonstrate improved extraction methods for enhancing the accuracy of erythromycin detection from environmental samples.

AB Salinity limits crop productivity, in part by decreasing shoot concentrations of the growth-promoting and senescence-delaying hormones cytokinins. Since constitutive cytokinin overproduction may have pleiotropic effects on plant development, two approaches assessed whether specific root-localized transgenic IPT (a key enzyme for cytokinin biosynthesis) gene expression could substantially improve tomato plant growth and yield under salinity: transient root IPT induction (HSP70::IPT) and grafting wild-type (WT) shoots onto a constitutive IPT-expressing rootstock (WT/35S::IPT). Transient root IPT induction increased root, xylem sap, and leaf bioactive cytokinin concentrations 2- to 3-fold without shoot IPT gene expression. Although IPT induction reduced root biomass (by 15%) in control (non-salinized) plants, in salinized plants (100 mM NaCl for 22 d), increased cytokinin concentrations delayed stomatal closure and leaf senescence and almost doubled shoot growth (compared with WT plants), with concomitant increases in the essential nutrient K(+) (20%) and decreases in the toxic ion Na(+) (by 30%) and abscisic acid (by 20-40%) concentrations in transpiring mature leaves. Similarly, WT/35S::IPT plants (scion/rootstock) grown with 75 mM NaCl for 90 d had higher fruit trans-zeatin concentrations (1.5- to 2-fold) and yielded 30% more than WT/non-transformed plants. Enhancing root cytokinin synthesis modified both shoot hormonal and ionic status, thus ameliorating salinity-induced decreases in growth and yield.

AB Past increases in yield potential of wheat have largely resulted from improvements in harvest index rather than increased biomass. Further large increases in harvest index are unlikely, but an opportunity exists for increasing productive biomass and harvestable grain. Photosynthetic capacity and efficiency are bottlenecks to raising productivity and there is strong evidence that increasing photosynthesis will increase crop yields provided that other constraints do not become limiting. Even small increases in the rate of net photosynthesis can translate into large increases in biomass and hence yield, since carbon assimilation is integrated over the entire growing season and crop canopy. This review discusses the strategies to increase photosynthesis that are being proposed by the wheat yield consortium in order to increase wheat yields. These include: selection for photosynthetic capacity and efficiency, increasing ear photosynthesis, optimizing canopy photosynthesis, introducing chloroplast CO(2) pumps, increasing RuBP regeneration, improving the thermal stability of Rubisco activase, and replacing wheat Rubisco with that from other species with different kinetic properties.

AB In maize, water stress at flowering causes loss of kernel set and productivity. While changes in the levels of sugars and abscisic acid (ABA) are thought to play a role in this stress response, the mechanistic basis and genes involved are not known. A candidate gene approach was used with association mapping to identify loci involved in accumulation of carbohydrates and ABA metabolites during stress. A panel of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes from these metabolic pathways and in genes for reproductive development and stress response was used to genotype 350 tropical and subtropical maize inbred lines that were well watered or water stressed at flowering. Pre-pollination ears, silks, and leaves were analysed for sugars, starch, proline, ABA, ABA-glucose ester, and phaseic acid. ABA and sugar levels in silks and ears were negatively correlated with their growth. Association mapping with 1229 SNPs in 540 candidate genes identified an SNP in the maize homologue of the Arabidopsis MADS-box gene, PISTILLATA, which was significantly associated with phaseic acid in ears of well-watered plants, and an SNP in pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase, a key regulator of carbon flux into respiration, that was associated with silk sugar concentration. An SNP in an aldehyde oxidase gene was significantly associated with ABA levels in silks of water-stressed plants. Given the short range over which decay of linkage disequilibrium occurs in maize, the results indicate that allelic variation in these genes affects ABA and carbohydrate metabolism in floral tissues during drought.

AB Climacteric and non-climacteric fruits have traditionally been viewed as representing two distinct programmes of ripening associated with differential respiration and ethylene hormone effects. In climacteric fruits, such as tomato and banana, the ripening process is marked by increased respiration and is induced and co-ordinated by ethylene, while in non-climacteric fruits, such as strawberry and grape, it is controlled by an ethylene-independent process with little change in respiration rate. The two contrasting mechanisms, however, both lead to texture, colour, and flavour changes that probably reflect some common programmes of regulatory control. It has been shown that a SEPALLATA(SEP)4-like gene is necessary for normal ripening in tomato. It has been demonstrated here that silencing a fruit-related SEP1/2-like (FaMADS9) gene in strawberry leads to the inhibition of normal development and ripening in the petal, achene, and receptacle tissues. In addition, analysis of transcriptome profiles reveals pleiotropic effects of FaMADS9 on fruit development and ripening-related gene expression. It is concluded that SEP genes play a central role in the developmental regulation of ripening in both climacteric and non-climacteric fruits. These findings provide important information to extend the molecular control of ripening in a non-climacteric fruit beyond the limited genetic and cultural options currently available.

AB Appropriate evaluation of soil phosphorus (P) availability is a prerequisite for best P management in potato production systems. Consequently, we evaluated soil test P and microbial biomass Pin 10 rainfed and irrigated potato field soils which had a three-year crop rotation. Ammonium oxalate extracted P was the highest with a level of >1400 mg kg(-1). Olsen P was moderate and ranged from 100 to 120 mg kg(-1). Modified Morgan inorganic P (MMP(i)) was lowest (<10 mg kg(-1)). However, only the MMP(i) levels were statistically and significantly impacted by crop rotation. Furthermore, MMP(i) quantified in spring was negatively correlated with the previous year's potato yield for fields receiving the same amount of P fertilizer and had R(2) values of 0.92 (alpha = 0.05), 0.78 (alpha = 0.1), and 0.59 (alpha = 0.05) for rainfed, irrigated, and for both fields, respectively. This observation implied that the decrease of MMPi levels was due to the P uptake of potato tuber growth and the modified Morgan extraction procedure was a good indicator of P utilization. Our data indicated that fumigation was more effective than microwaving in releasing microbial biomass P from these soils. Irrigation increased microbial biomass P in the continuous potato soils, but decreased it in the field soils of soil conserving, soil improving, disease suppressive, and status quo rotation treatments. Our observations suggested that crop rotation impacted both soil test and microbial biomass P in these potato fields. Further research is required to determine if these changes consistently occur over longer periods.

AB The California Leafy Greens Marketing Agreement (LGMA) was adopted in an effort to minimize the risk of contamination of leafy greens with enteric pathogens from a variety of sources, including ground and surface irrigation waters. The LGMA contains standards similar to those established for recreational waters, based on Escherichia coli concentrations. However, no correlation between E. coli and any specific waterborne pathogen(s) has been reported. We conducted this monitoring study in an agricultural watershed to (i) evaluate spatial and temporal fluctuations in E. coli populations and virulence genes associated with pathogenic E. coli and (ii) investigate whether a relationship could be established between E. coli and virulence genes. The virulence genes targeted for analysis were the eae and stx genes, encoding for intimin and Shiga-like toxins, respectively; they were detected with PCR methods. E. coli concentrations and eae and stx prevalence varied both spatially and temporally. In general, both were higher in agricultural than in forested areas and were higher in the summer and fall seasons than in winter. The eae and stx genes were prevalent throughout the watershed. However, in the absence of actual isolates, no conclusions could be drawn regarding the prevalence of specific pathogenic E. coli. No correlation was observed between E. coli concentrations and virulence genes; lower E. coli concentrations were not necessarily associated with decreased prevalence of eae and stx genes. These results suggest that the LGMA standards might not adequately address the issue of waterborne contamination, and that alternative criteria might be required.

AB Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) causes a variety of infections outside the gastrointestinal tract. Retail meats are frequently contaminated with E. coli strains, and they might serve as a vehicle for transmitting ExPEC. A total of 1,275 E. coli isolates recovered from ground beef, ground turkey, chicken breasts, and pork chops obtained in Georgia, Maryland, Oregon, and Tennessee in 2006 were investigated for the presence of ExPEC by using multiplex PCR. Identified ExPEC isolates were assigned to serogroups and phylogenetic groups and then analyzed for antimicrobial susceptibility. Approximately 16% (200 of 1,275) of the E. coli isolates were identified as ExPEC, based on defined genetic criteria. The occurrence of ExPEC was highest in E. coli isolated from ground turkey (23.5%) and chicken breasts (20.2%), and less frequent in isolates from pork chops (8.3%) and ground beef (3.4%). Phylogenetic grouping revealed that most (66.5%) ExPEC isolates fell into the same phylogenetic groups (B2 and D) as did virulent human ExPEC strains. Among the 15 antimicrobial agents tested, resistance to tetracycline (67.0%), sulfisoxazole (59.5%), and streptomycin (46.0%) was most frequent. Most ExPEC isolates (n = 163 [81.5%]) were resistant to at least one antimicrobial agent, and more than half (n = 114 [57%]) exhibited resistance to at least three drugs. This study found that ExPEC strains, including antimicrobial-resistant strains, were frequent among E. coli recovered from retail meats, especially those from chicken and turkey products. These findings indicate a need to better understand the role of certain meat types as potential sources of human ExPEC infection.

AB Two isolation methods were compared for isolation of Clostridium difficile from food animal feces. The single alcohol shock method (SS) used selective enrichment in cycloserine-cefoxitin fructose broth supplemented with 0.1% sodium taurocholate, followed by alcohol shock and isolation on tryptic soy agar supplemented with 5% sheep blood, and cycloserine-cefoxitin fructose agar. The double alcohol shock method (DS) used alcohol shock prior to and after selective enrichment in cycloserine-cefoxitin fructose broth supplemented with 0.1% sodium taurocholate, followed by isolation on tryptic soy agar supplemented with 5% sheep blood and cycloserine-cefoxitin fructose agar. A total of 55 (15.9%, n = 345) swine fecal samples, 32 (2.4%, n = 1,325) dairy cattle fecal samples, and 188 (6.3%, n = 2,965) beef cattle fecal samples were positive for C. difficile by either method. However, the DS was significantly better than the SS for the recovery of C. difficile from swine feces, while the SS was significantly better than the DS for the recovery of C. difficile from beef cattle feces. There was no significant difference between methods for the recovery of C. difficile from dairy cattle feces. This study suggests that food animals might harbor C. difficile and it provides critical information that isolation methods might not have universal application across animal species.

AB A nontargeted, comprehensive 2-dimensional gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GCxGC-TOFMS) method was developed for the analysis of fermented cucumber volatiles before and after anaerobic spoilage. Volatile compounds extracted by solid-phase microextraction were separated on a polyethylene glycol 1st-dimension column and 14% cyanopropylphenyl 2nd-dimension column. Among 314 components detected in fermented cucumber brine, 199 had peak areas with coefficients of variation below 30%. Peak identifications established by mass spectral library matching were 92% accurate based on 63 authentic standards. Analysis of variance of analytes' log peak areas revealed 33 metabolites changed in concentration after spoilage (P < 0.05), including increases in acetic, propanoic, and butyric acids, n-propyl acetate, several alcohols, and a decrease in furfural. GCxGC-TOFMS with a nontargeted, semi-automated approach to data analysis made possible the separation, identification, and determination of differences in polar volatile components, facilitating the discovery of several metabolites related to fermented cucumber spoilage.

AB Rice bran, a byproduct of the rice milling process, contains most of the phytochemicals. This study aimed at determining the concentrations of lipophilic, solvent-extractable (free), and cell wall-bound (bound) phytochemicals and their antioxidant capacities from brans of white, light brown, brown, purple, and red colors, and broccoli and blueberry for comparison. The concentrations of lipophilic antioxidants of vitamin E (tocopherol and tocotrienols) and gamma-oryzanols were 319.67 to 443.73 and 3861.93 to 5911.12 mu g/g bran dry weight (DW), respectively, and were not associated with bran color. The total phenolic, total flavonoid, and antioxidant capacities of ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity), DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging, and iron-chelating in the free fraction were correlated with the intensity of bran color, while variations of these in the bound fraction were less than those in the free fraction among brans. Compounds in the bound fraction had higher antioxidant capacity of ORAC than DPPH, relative to those in the free fraction. The bound fraction of light-color brans contributed as much to its total ORAC as the free fraction. Total proanthocyanidin concentration was the highest in red rice bran, while total anthocyanin was highest in purple brans. The predominant anthocyanin was cyanidin-3-glucoside. Red and purple brans had several fold higher total phenolics and flavonoids as well as ORAC and DPPH, from both free and bound fractions, than freeze-dried blueberry and broccoli. These results indicate that rice brans are natural sources of hydrophilic and lipophilic phytochemicals for use in quality control of various food systems as well as for nutraceutical and functional food application.

AB The nonbiodegradable and nonrenewable nature of plastic packaging has led to a renewed interest in packaging materials based on bio-nanocomposites (biopolymer matrix reinforced with nanoparticles such as layered silicates). One of the reasons for unique properties of bio-nanocomposites is the difference in physics at nanoscale as compared to that at macroscale. Therefore, the effect of nanoscale on the properties of bio-nanocomposites is discussed. Properties of bio-nanocomposites are governed by the extent of dispersion of nanoparticles in the biopolymer matrix and interaction between nanoparticles and the biopolymer. Selection of proper technique to determine properties of these bio-nanocomposites is very critical in assessing their performance. Experimental techniques (tensile testing, barrier property measurement, dynamic mechanical analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, rheological measurement) to determine the mechanical, barrier, thermal, and rheological properties of bio-nanocomposites are discussed in terms of methodology, interpretation of results, and application in studying the properties of bio-nanocomposites. Mathematical modeling plays an important role in predicting the properties of bio-nanocomposites and comparing them to the measured properties. This comparison helps in better understanding the mechanism for much improved properties of bio-nanocomposites. Mathematical modeling is also helpful in understanding the effects of different parameters on the properties of bio-nanocomposites. Therefore, the article describes mathematical modeling of mechanical and barrier properties of bio-nanocomposites using analytical micromechanics.

AB E. coli O157:H7 is an important foodborne pathogen, and ground beef is a common vehicle of infection. DNA microarrays have been used for transcriptomic studies of E. coli O157:H7 using laboratory media; however, analysis of gene expression in complex matrices such as food are lacking. This study compared gene expression profiles of E. coli O157:H7 Sakai strain in raw ground beef extract (GBE) and tryptic soy broth (TSB). Total RNA was isolated from GBE and TSB after 2 h of incubation with E. coli O157:H7. Following reverse transcription (RT) of the RNA, labeled cDNA was hybridized to microarrays representing 9608 open reading frames (Operon; Genome Array-Ready Oligo Set) corresponding to 4 genomes of E. coli strains and 3 plasmids. There were 74 up-regulated (genes involved in protein and polysaccharide biosynthesis, transcription factors, membrane transport proteins, and acid shock proteins) and 54 down-regulated (encoding proteins for energy metabolism, biosynthesis of cofactors, transporters of small molecules, and transcription factors and enzymes responsible for protein degradation) genes in E. coli O157:H7 grown in GBE compared to TSB, respectively. Furthermore, compared to incubation in TSB, E. coli O157:H7 incubated in GBE for 2 h showed significantly increased survival when exposed to synthetic gastric fluid, pH 1.5. This study demonstrated that microarray analyses can be performed using complex food matrices, and gene expression of E. coli O157:H7 differs in TSB compared to GBE. The information will be useful for identification of genes that can be employed as potential targets for interventions to control E. coli O157:H7.

DE dietary guidelines; food scientists; nutrition
AB Food scientists and nutrition scientists (dietitians and nutrition communicators) are tasked with creating strategies to more closely align the American food supply and the public's diet with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA). This paper is the result of 2 expert dialogues to address this mandate, which were held in Chicago, Illinois, and Washington, D. C., in early October 2010 between these 2 key scientific audiences. It is an objective that has largely eluded public health experts over the past several decades. This document takes the perspective of food scientists who are tasked with making positive modifications to the food supply, both in innovating and reformulating food products, to respond to both the DGA recommendations, and to consumer desires, needs, and choices. The paper is one of two to emerge from those October 2010 discussions; the other article focuses on the work of dietitians and nutrition communicators in effecting positive dietary change.

AB The off-flavor boar taint associated with the substances skatole, androstenone, and possibly indole represents a significant problem in the pig husbandry industry. Boar taint may occur in meat from uncastrated sexually mature male pigs; consumers commonly show a strong aversion to tainted meat. Consequently, there is a need for rapid methods to sort out and remove tainted carcasses at the slaughterline. We tested the ability of wasps, Microplitis croceipes to perceive and learn the 3 boar taint compounds both individually and in combination using classical conditioning paradigms. We also established the effectiveness and reliability of boar taint odor detection when wasps were used as biosensors in a contained system called the "wasp hound" using a cohort of trained wasps. We found that the wasps are able to successfully learn indole, skatole and to also detect them when presented a 1 : 1 : 1 mixture of all 3 compounds. This was shown for both a single hand-manipulated wasp bioassay and when using the "wasp hound" detector device. In contrast, the wasps showed a weak conditioned response to androstenone at the concentration tested. The estimated gas phase concentrations that the wasps perceived during training were in the range of 10 +/- 0.4 pg/s for skatole and indole, and 2 +/- 0.5 pg/s for androstenone. We conclude that use of these wasps as biosensors presents a promising method for boar taint detection and discuss future training paradigms that may improve their responses to compounds such as androstenone.

ID SEQUESTERING CARBON; SEQUESTRATION; COST; IMPACTS; LAND
AB Assumptions regarding landowner participation, whether mandatory or voluntary, are an important determinant in evaluating the implications of a carbon offset sales program. We modify an existing intertemporal optimization model of the US forest and agriculture sectors to allow optional involvement of private forest land in a carbon offset market and compare these results to a case in which all private land is enrolled. Our analysis of these two cases and various CO(2)e price levels indicate different responses in carbon stock and flux, forest land area and management, forest product prices, and forest conditions. The results suggest that the cost of sequestering carbon in US forests, using either a voluntary or mandatory carbon offset sales program, may be substantially higher than suggested by earlier studies.

LA English
DT Article
DE Forest products; Market modeling; Wood energy scenarios
AB This paper describes an approach to modeling U.S. forest sector market and trade impacts of expansion in domestic wood energy consumption under hypothetical future U.S. wood biomass energy policy scenarios. The U.S. Forest Products Module (USFPM) was created to enhance the modeling of the U.S. forest sector within the Global Forest Products Model (GFPM), providing a more detailed representation of U.S. regional timber supply and wood residue markets. Scenarios were analyzed with USFPM/GFPM ranging from a baseline 48% increase to a 173% increase in annual U.S. consumption of wood for energy from 2006 to 2030, while consumption of fuelwood in other countries was assumed to increase by around 65% in aggregate. Results indicate that expansion in wood energy consumption across the range of scenarios may have little impact on U.S. forest sector markets because most of the expansion can be supplied by logging residues that are presently not being utilized and also mill residues that will increase in supply with projected expansion in wood product output in the decades ahead. However, analysis also suggests that forest sector markets could be disrupted by expansion in wood energy if much higher levels of wood energy consumption occur, or if projected recovery in housing demand and wood product output does not occur, or if more restrictive constraints or higher costs are imposed on wood residue utilization.

AB The Israeli acute paralysis virus (IAPV) is a significant marker of honeybee colony collapse disorder (CCD). In the present work, we provide the first evidence that Varroa destructor is IAPV replication-competent and capable of vectoring IAPV in honeybees. The honeybees became infected with IAPV after exposure to Varroa mites that carried the virus. The copy number of IAPV in bees was positively correlated with the density of Varroa mites and time period of exposure to Varroa mites. Further, we showed that the mite virus association could possibly reduce host immunity and therefore promote elevated levels of virus replication. This study defines an active role of Varroa mites in IAPV transmission and sheds light on the epidemiology of IAPV infection in honeybees.

AB Pseudophoenix ekmanii is a threatened palm species endemic to the Dominican Republic. Sap from trees is extracted to make a local drink; once they are tapped the individual usually dies. Plants are also illegally harvested for the nursery trade and destroyed by poachers hunting the endemic and threatened Hispaniolan parrot. We used 7 DNA microsatellite markers to assist land managers in developing conservation strategies for this palm. We sampled 4 populations along the known distribution range of this species (3 populations from the mainland and 1 from the small island of Isla Beata), for a total sample of n = 104. We found strong evidence for genetic drift, inbreeding, and moderate gene flow (i.e., all populations had at least 4 loci that were not in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, at least 9 loci pairs were in linkage disequilibrium, the pairwise F-ST values ranged from 0.069 to 0.266, and had positive F-IS values). Data supported an isolation-by-distance model, and cluster analyses based on genetic distances resolved 2 groups that match a north-south split.

AB In soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], manual cross-pollination to produce large quantities of hybrid seed is difficult and time consuming. Identification of an environmentally stable male-sterility system could make hybrid seed production commercially valuable. In soybean, 2 environmentally sensitive male-sterile, female-fertile mutants (ms8 and msp) have been identified. Inheritance studies showed that sterility in both mutants is inherited as a single gene. The objectives of this study were to 1) confirm that msp and ms8 are independent genes; 2) identify the soybean chromosomes that contain the msp and the ms8 genes using bulked segregant analyses (BSAs); and 3) make a genetic linkage map of the regions containing these genes. Mapping populations consisting of 176 F(2) plants for ms8 and 134 F(2) plants for msp were generated. BSA revealed that Sat_389 and Satt172 are closely associated markers with ms8 and msp, respectively. Map location of Sat_389 suggested that the ms8 gene is located on chromosome 7; molecular linkage group (MLG) M. Map location of Satt172 indicated that the msp gene is located on chromosome 2 (MLG Dlb). Genetic linkage maps developed using F(2) populations revealed that ms8 is flanked by a telomere and Sat_389 and msp is flanked by Sat_069 and GMES4176. The region between the telomere and Sat_389 is physically 160 Kb. Soybean sequence information revealed that there are 13 genes present in that region. Protein BLASTP analyses revealed that homologs of 3 of the 13 genes are known to a play role in cell division, suggesting putative candidates for ms8.

   IDENTIFICATION
AB The PBAN/pyrokinin peptides are a major neuropeptide family characterized by a common FXPRLamide at the C-termini. These peptides are distributed ubiquitously in the Insecta and are involved in many essential endocrine functions, e.g. pheromone production. We report the gene architecture of the fire ant Solenopsis invicta PBAN (Soi-PBAN) gene, including the exon and intron boundaries. Furthermore, we quantified expression of the Soi-PBAN mRNA in the head, thorax and abdomen of the fire ant. The Soi-PBAN gene is comprised three exons and two introns, all composed of 13,358 nucleotides, which is 2-4 times larger than lepidopteran PBAN genes. The overall pattern of the PBAN immunoreactive neuron number and localization was similar for female and male alates, inseminated female delates, workers and queens. The Soi-PBAN mRNA expression level was highest in the head, followed by the thorax, and abdomen of adult ants. Expression in the abdominal tissues was expected to be similar to the head, or at least higher than thorax because strong PBAN immunoreactive neurons were detected previously in brain-subesophageal and abdominal ganglia. This result suggests that another FXPRL gene could be dominant in the abdomen rather than Soi-PBAN gene. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

TI Geomorphology of the Chihuahuan Desert based on potential dust emissions
SO JOURNAL OF MAPS
LA English
DT Article
ID NEW-MEXICO; STORM
AB The Chihuahuan Desert of central northern Mexico and southern Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, USA, is a regionally significant dust 'hot-spot' in North America. Typical of other such hot-spots, this desert consists of a mosaic of geomorphological settings, each of which has a varying propensity for dust emission. Recently, a classification system of dust emission potential based on surface geomorphic characteristics that establishes a common framework for describing the land surface has been proposed. The classification is readily applicable to different dust source regions and designed to facilitate comparison of the relative potential dust contributions and emissivity of varying geomorphological environments in such regions.
   The map here (1:3,500,000) was compiled by applying the new classification to a base map of polygons from existing soil and landform maps that were produced by national government agencies. Within the study area, 11 of the 17 possible geomorphic classes were present, the most extensive being unarmoured, unincised high relief alluvial surfaces, which covered 43% of the area.
   As an example of how empirical dust source point data can be used with the classification, the satellite-observed origins of dust plumes for 26 major wind erosion events from 2001 to 2009 were overlain on the map. Despite a total area of only 4%, ephemeral lakes were the source of 48% of the observed plumes. This map and the relationships derived from it provide the basis for developing equivalent maps in other dusty regions, and mark a step toward improving the representation and documentation of the strength of dust sources in numerical mineral aerosol models.

AB Through a recent (2003-2007) survey of ectoparasites on hoofed mammals in western North America, a literature review, and examination of archived museum specimens, we found that the exotic deer-chewing louse, Bovicola tibialis (Piaget), is a long-term, widespread resident in the region. The earliest known collection was from Salt Spring Island, Canada, in 1941. We found these lice on the typical host, that is, introduced European fallow deer (Dama dama L.), and on Asian chital (Axis axis [Erxleben]), native Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus [Richardson]), and Rocky Mountain mule deer (O. h. hemionus [Rafinesque]) X black-tailed deer hybrids. Chital and the hybrid deer are new host records. All identified hosts were known to be or probably were exposed to fallow deer. Geographic records include southwestern British Columbia, Canada; Marin and Mendocino Counties, California; Deschutes, Lincoln, and Linn Counties, Oregon; Yakima and Kittitas Counties, Washington; Curry County, New Mexico; and circumstantially, at least, Kerr County, Texas. All but the Canadian and Mendocino County records are new. Bovicola tibialis displays a number of noteworthy similarities to another exotic deer-chewing louse already established in the region, that is, Damalinia (Cervicola) sp., which is associated with a severe hair-loss syndrome in black-tailed deer. We discuss longstanding problems with proper identification of B. tibialis, the probability that it occurs even more widely in the United States, and the prospects for it to cause health problems for North American deer. Additional information gathered since our active survey establishes further new distribution and host records for B. tibialis.

AB We collected ectoparasites from 27 of 51 wild-caught, free-ranging exotic reptiles examined in Florida from 2003 to 2008. Sampled animals represented eight species, five of which yielded ectoparasites. Reported new parasite distribution records for the United States include the following: the first collection of the African tick Amblyomma latum (Koch) from a wild-caught animal [ball python, Python regius (Shaw)] in the United States; the first collection of the lizard scale mite Hirstiella stamii (Jack) from any wild-caught animal [green iguana, Iguana iguana (L.) 1; and the first collection of the lizard scale mite Geckobia hemidactyli (Lawrence) in the continental United States from a wild-caught tropical house gecko, Hemidactylus mabouia (Moreau de Jonnes). We also report the first collections of the Neotropical ticks Amblyomma rotundatum (Koch) and Amblyomma dissimile (Koch) from wild-caught Burmese pythons, Python molurus bivittatus (Kuhl); the first collections of A. dissimile from a wild-caught African savannah monitor, Varanus exanthematicus (Bosc); and from wild-caught green iguanas in the United States; and the first collections of the native chiggers Eutrombicula splendens (Ewing) and Eutrombicula cinnabaris (Ewing) from wild-caught Burmese pythons. These reports may only suggest the diversity of reptile ectoparasites introduced and established in Florida and the new host-parasite relationships that have developed among exotic and native ectoparasites and established exotic reptiles.

AB The potential for near infrared (NIR) imaging technology to yield improved sensitivity for detecting oriental fruit flies infested in intact mangoes was investigated. Hyperspectral data from 400nm to 1000nm were acquired from eight infested mangoes and eight control mangoes at Oh, 24h and 48h after infestation. Sixteen pores were created on each mango. Four mangoes from each class were set aside as independent test samples. From each of the eight remaining fruit, nine spectra (3x3 pixel) from the area of each pore were extracted. Each spectrum was considered to be an individual, multiple-feature sample. The features were input into an iterative Bayesian discriminant analysis routine for the classification. Using the three selected wavelengths for spectra measured at 48h after infestation, classification results were 0.9% false negatives (infested fruit misclassified) (range of fruit fly larvae: 8-57) and 5.7% false positives (control fruit misclassified). Grey-scale images of the area (4x4 cm) containing the pores for each fruit were generated based on the Mahalanobis distance calculated from the pretreated 48h absorbance values at each of the three wavelengths selected. Clear distinction between infested areas were observed with few false positive results in the control fruit, indicating the feasibility of using NIR imaging as the basis for a low-cost, high-speed device for the detection of the oriental fruit fly in mangoes.

TI Methods for correcting morphological-based deficiencies in hyperspectral

DE hyperspectral; linescan; morphology; correction; algorithm
AB Hyperspectral images of curved surfaces contain undesirable artefacts that are a consequence of the morphology, or shape, of the sample. A software correction was developed to remove the variation in pixel intensity in hyperspectral images of spherical samples generated on a linescan type imaging system. The correction is based directly on well known physical effects involving light reflection and intensity. The three predominant principles investigated are the behaviour of light reflected from Lambertian surfaces, the 1/x(2) relationship between light intensity and distance from the source,and the variation in arc length along a circle, as seen from the detectors. The algorithm was tested using hyperspectral images of a uniform spherical Teflon sample. Pixel intensity profiles and histograms were generated for the corrected images and evaluated to determine the effectiveness of the algorithm based on the fact that the ideal result would be a uniform image (as is appropriate for a uniform sample). Results indicate that the algorithm effectively improves pixel intensity uniformity, although some variability remains. Contributing factors to the remaining pixel intensity variation in the corrected images include non-uniformity of sample illumination, specular reflection, unintended ambient light and reflections from surfaces. The same principle can be applied to samples with circular cross sections along a particular axis, which includes many agricultural commodities.

AB Plants of the genus Scutellaria constitute one of the common components of Eastern as well as traditional American medicine against various human diseases, including cancer. In this study, we examined the in vivo anti-glioma activity of a leaf extract of Scutellaria ocmulgee (SocL) while also exploring their potential molecular mechanisms of action. Oral administration of SocL extract delayed the growth of F98 glioma in F344 rats, both in intracranial and subcutaneous tumor models. Immunohistochemistry revealed inhibition of Akt, GSK-3 alpha/beta and NF-kappa B phosphorylation in the subcutaneous tumors following treatment with Scutellaria. The SocL extract as well as the constituent flavonoid wogonin also showed dose- and time-dependent inhibition of Akt, GSK-3 alpha/beta and NF-kappa B in F98 cell cultures in vitro, as determined by western blot analysis. Pharmacologic inhibitors of PI3K and NF-kappa B also significantly inhibited the in vitro proliferation of F98 glioma cells, indicating the key role of these signaling molecules in the growth of malignant gliomas. Transfection of F98 cells with constitutively active mutant of AKT (AKT/CA), however, did not significantly reverse Scutellaria-mediated inhibition of proliferation, indicating that Scutellaria flavonoids either directly inhibited Akt kinase activity or acted downstream of Akt. In vitro Akt kinase assay demonstrated that the SocL extract or wogonin could indeed bind to Akt and inhibit its kinase activity. This study provides the first in vivo evidence and mechanistic support for anti-glioma activity of Scutellaria flavonoids and has implications in potential usage of Scutellaria flavonoids in adjuvant therapy for malignant tumors, including gliomas.

TI Enteral Arginine Does Not Increase Superior Mesenteric Arterial Blood

AB Arginine is an essential amino acid in neonates synthesized by gut epithelial cells and a precursor for NO that regulates vasodilatation and blood flow. Arginine supplementation has been shown to improve intestinal integrity in ischemia-reperfusion models and low plasma levels are associated with necrotizing enterocolitis. We hypothesized that enteral arginine is a specific stimulus for neonatal intestinal blood flow and mucosal growth under conditions of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) or partial enteral nutrition (PEN). We first tested the dose dependence and specificity of acute (3 h) enteral arginine infusion on superior mesenteric artery (SMA) blood flow in pigs fed TPN or PEN. We then determined whether chronic (4 d) arginine supplementation of PEN increases mucosal growth and if this was affected by treatment with the NO synthase inhibitor, N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). Acute enteral arginine infusion increased plasma arginine dose dependently in both TPN and PEN groups, but the plasma response was markedly higher (100-250%) in the PEN group than in the TPN croup at the 2 highest arginine doses. Baseline SMA blood flow was 90% higher in the PEN (2.37 +/- 0.32 L.kg(-1).h(-1)) pigs than in the TPN pigs (1.23 +/- 0.17 L.kg(-1).h(-1)), but was not affected by acute infusion individually of arginine, citrulline, or other major gut fuels. Chronic dietary arginine supplementation in PEN pigs induced mucosal growth in the intestine, but this effect was not prevented by treatment with L-NAME. Intestinal crypt cell proliferation, protein synthesis, and phosphorylation of mammalian target of rapamycin and p70S6 kinase were not affected by dietary arginine. We conclude that partial enteral feeding, but not acute enteral arginine, increases SMA blood flow in the neonatal pig. Furthermore, supplementing arginine in partial enteral feeding modestly increases intestinal mucosal growth and was NO independent. J. Nutr. 141 63-70, 2011.

TI Arginine Flux, but Not Nitric Oxide Synthesis, Decreases in Adolescent
   Girls Compared with Adult Women during Pregnancy
SO JOURNAL OF NUTRITION
LA English
DT Article
ID MATURE WOMEN; HEMODYNAMICS; PREECLAMPSIA
AB NO has been proposed as a mediator of vascular expansion during pregnancy. Inability to increase NO synthesis and/or production of its precursor, arginine, may contribute to pregnancy-induced hypertension. Adolescents have a higher incidence of gestational hypertension. It is not known whether pregnant adolescents can produce sufficient arginine to meet overall demands. Our objective was to measure and compare the arginine flux and NO synthesis rates of pregnant adolescents and adult women. Arginine, citrulline, and NO kinetics were measured by i.v, infusions of (15)N(2)-argininine and (2)H(2)-citrulline in 8 adolescents and 8 adult women in the fasted state at the end of the first and the beginning of the 3rd trimesters of pregnancy. Arginine flux decreased (P < 0.05) from trimester 1 to 3 in the adolescents but not in the adult women. NO synthesis rate did not change significantly in either group from trimester 1 to 3. In trimester 3, there was a positive association (r = 0.55; P = 0.02) between arginine flux and participants' age, indicating that flux was slower in the younger participants. These findings suggest that after a brief period of food deprivation, the pregnant adolescent cannot maintain arginine production like her adult counterpart in late pregnancy. This inability to maintain arginine production seems to be related to her younger age. It does not, however, affect her ability to synthesize NO in late pregnancy. J. Nutr. 141: 71-74, 2011.

AB Pigmented potatoes contain high concentrations of antioxidants, including phenolic acids, anthocyanins, and carotenoids. These bioactive compounds have been implicated in the inhibition or prevention of cellular oxidative damage and chronic disease susceptibility. We assessed the effects of pigmented potato consumption on oxidative stress and inflammation biomarkers in adult males. Free-living healthy men (18-40 y; n = 12/group) consumed 150 g of cooked white- (WP), yellow- (YP), or purple-flesh potatoes (PP) once per day for 6 wk in a randomized study. Blood was collected at baseline and wk 6 to analyze total antioxidant capacity (TAC), DNA damage as assessed by plasma 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), protein oxidation, lipid peroxidation, C-reactive protein (CRP), inflammatory cytokines, lymphoproliferation, NK cytotoxicity, and phenotypes. Potatoes were analyzed for TAC, phenolic acids, anthocyanins, and carotenoids. Compared with the WP group, the YP group had higher concentrations of phenolic acids (P < 0.002) and carotenoids (P < 0.001), whereas the PP group had higher concentrations of phenolic acids (P < 0.002) and anthocyanins (P < 0.001). Men who consumed YP and PP tended to have lower (P < 0.08) plasma IL-6 compared with those consuming WP. The PP group tended to have a lower plasma CRP concentration than the WP group (P = 0.07). The 8-OHdG concentration was lower in men who consumed either YP or PP compared with WP. Pigmented potato consumption reduced inflammation and DNA damage in healthy adult males. This offers consumers an improved nutritional choice in potato consumption. J. Nutr. 141: 108-111, 2011.

   OBESITY; POPULATION; HEALTH; BMI; CARBOHYDRATE
AB The relative importance of eating frequency to weight control is poorly understood. This review examines the evidence to date on the role of eating frequency in weight control in free-living adults. The majority of cross-sectional studies in free-living adults show an inverse relationship between eating frequency and adiposity; however, this is likely an artifact produced by the underreporting of eating frequency concurrent with underreporting of energy intake. When implausible energy intake reporting (which is mostly underreporting) is taken into account, the association between eating frequency and adiposity becomes positive. In studies in which eating frequency is prescribed and food intake is mostly self-selected, there is either no effect or a minor positive effect of eating frequency on energy intake. Most of those studies have been short-term and lack the necessary dietary biomarkers to validate reported energy intakes and eating frequencies. In conclusion, there is some suggestion from cross-sectional studies in which energy intake underreporting is taken into account and from experimental studies to date that greater eating frequency may promote positive energy balance. However, experimental studies of longer-term duration that include objective dietary biomarkers are necessary before firm conclusions about the relative importance of eating frequency in weight control can be made.

AB Observational studies of breakfast frequency in children and adults suggest an inverse (protective) association between the frequency of eating breakfast and the risk for obesity and chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes. More prospective studies with stronger designs are needed, as are experimental studies on this topic. In addition, above and beyond breakfast frequency, the roles of dietary quality and composition need to be studied in the context of eating or skipping breakfast. Experimental studies are also necessary to rigorously test causality and biological mechanisms. Therefore, we conducted 2 pilot experimental studies to examine some of the effects of breakfast skipping and breakfast composition on blood glucose and appetite in children and adults. Our results suggest that breakfast frequency and quality may be related in causal ways to appetite controls and blood sugar control, supporting the hypothesis that the breakfast meal and its g quality may have important causal implications for the risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes.

AB Objective: To develop and test nutrition messages and supporting content with low-income mothers for use with theory-based interventions addressing fruit and vegetable consumption and child-feeding practices.
   Design: Six formative and 6 evaluative focus groups explored message concepts and tested messages, respectively.
   Setting: Research facilities in Maryland, Texas, California, Florida, North Carolina, New York, Alabama, and Illinois.
   Participants: Ninety-five low-income mothers of 2- to 5-year-old children; over half from households participating in a federal nutrition assistance program.
   Phenomenon of Interest: Preference for and comprehension of nutrition messages.
   Analysis: Qualitative data analysis procedures to generate common themes from transcripts and observers' notes.
   Results: Messages on role modeling, cooking and eating together, having patience when introducing new food items, and allowing children to serve themselves were well received. Mothers preferred messages that emphasized their role as a teacher and noted benefits such as their children becoming more independent and learning new skills. Mothers commonly doubted children's ability to accurately report when they are "full" and disliked messages encouraging mothers to allow children to "decide" whether and how much to eat.
   Conclusions and Implications: This study generated 7 audience-tested messages for incorporation into nutrition education interventions targeting low-income mothers of preschool-age children.

AB This study investigated occupational exposure to wood and vegetative smoke in a group of 28 forest firefighters at prescribed forest burns in a southeastern U. S. forest during the winters of 2003-2005. During burn activities, 203 individual person-day PM2.5 and 149 individual person-day CO samples were collected; during non-burn activities, 37 person-day PM2.5 samples were collected as controls. Time-activity diaries and post-work shift questionnaires were administered to identify factors influencing smoke exposure and to determine how accurately the firefighters' qualitative assessment estimated their personal level of smoke exposure with discrete responses: "none" or "very little," "low," "moderate," "high," and "very high." An average of 6.7 firefighters were monitored per burn, with samples collected on 30 burn days and 7 non-burn days. Size of burn plots ranged from 1-2745 acres (avg = 687.8). Duration of work shift ranged from 6.8-19.4 hr (avg = 10.3 hr) on burn days. Concentration of PM2.5 ranged from 5.9-2673 mu g/m(3) on burn days. Geometric mean PM2.5 exposure was 280 mu g/m(3) (95% CL = 140, 557 mu g/m(3), n = 177) for burn day samples, and 16 mu g/m(3) (95% CL = 10, 26 mu g/m(3), n = 35) on non-burn days. Average measured PM2.5 differed across levels of the firefighters' categorical self-assessments of exposure (p < 0.0001): none to very little = 120 mu g/m(3) (95% CL = 71, 203 mu g/m(3)) and high to very high = 664 mu g/m(3) (95% CL = 373, 1185 mu g/m(3)); p < 0.0001 on burn days). Time-weighted average PM2.5 and personal CO averaged over the run times of PM2.5 pumps were correlated (correlation coefficient estimate, r=0.79; CLs: 0.72, 0.85). Overall occupational exposures to particulate matter were low, but results indicate that exposure could exceed the ACGIH (R)-recommended threshold limit value of 3 mg/m(3) for respirable particulate matter in a few extreme situations. Self-assessed exposure levels agreed with measured concentrations of PM2.5. Correlation analysis shows that either PM2.5 or CO could be used as a surrogate measure of exposure to woodsmoke at prescribed burns.

AB Planting koa (Acacia koa A. Gray) in Hawai'i, USA aids in restoration of disturbed sites essential to conservation of endemic species. Survival and growth of planted seedlings under vegetative competition typically increases with initial plant size. Increasing container size and fertilizer rate may produce larger seedlings, but high fertilization can lead to surface and groundwater pollution and relatively low fertilizer use efficiency. Subirrigation systems may help mitigate this problem. Our study objective was to evaluate koa seedling growth with overhead or subirrigation over a range of container volumes (50 to 656 mL) and fertilizer rates (0 to 9.6 kg center dot m-3). Increasing container volume from 50 to 656 mL yielded koa seedlings with 200% more height and stem diameter growth. Subirrigation resulted in less nutrient leaching losses and yielded seedlings of similar vigor as overhead irrigated seedlings. Subirrigation helps optimize fertilizer delivery, which may improve fertilizer use efficiency and reduce environmental contamination.

AB The lower critical leaf concentration for nickel (Ni) has not been fully determined for commercial pecan [Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch.] orchards. In a two-year study, foliar Ni was applied to orchard trees in early spring beginning at the parachute stage of leaf development and followed by two additional applications at two week intervals. Yield, yield efficiency (ratio of yield to trunk area), trunk growth, leaf area, specific leaf weight, nut weight, nut quality, and kernel percentage were unaffected by treatment. Leaf Ni was increased, but leaf zinc (Zn) and manganese (Mn) concentrations were reduced by foliar Ni application. The lack of a detectable response to Ni treatment indicates that a July leaflet Ni concentration in the control (2.87 mu g g(-1)) met this pecan orchard's Ni requirement, establishing a lower critical threshold for leaf Ni than proposed elsewhere.

AB Effects of carbon dioxide (CO(2)) enrichment on plant growth and on nitrogen partitioning were examined in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. 'Samsun'). Dry matter, leaf area and specific leaf weight were unchanged (P > 0.05) by CO(2) enrichment. Total soluble protein, soluble amino acids and inorganic nitrate also were unaffected by CO(2) enrichment (P > 0.05). Leaf chlorophyll (a + b) levels decreased 13% (P <= 0.05) in response to CO(2) enrichment. The diurnal accumulation of soluble amino acids was delayed and the initial slope of the A/C(i) response curve was decreased 14% in the elevated compared to the ambient CO(2) treatment. The above findings showed that CO(2) enrichment affected leaf chlorophyll levels, diurnal soluble amino acid metabolism and photosynthetic responses to low intercellular CO(2) concentrations even though the plants were nitrogen sufficient. Inadequate nitrogen fertility cannot explain all of the effects of CO(2) enrichment on photosynthesis by tobacco leaves.

ID WINTER-WHEAT
AB 'NH03614 CL' (Reg. No. CV-1051, PI 653833) hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was developed cooperatively by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and the USDA-ARS and released in 2008 by the developing institutions and the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station and the Wyoming Agricultural Experiment Station. In addition to researchers at the releasing institutions, USDA-ARS researchers at Manhattan, KS and St. Paul, MN participated in the development of NH03614 CL, NH03614 CL was selected from the cross 'Wesley' sib//'Millennium' sib/Above' sib that was made in the spring of 1997 to develop new herbicide-tolerant cultivars. NH03614 CL was selected using the bulk breeding method as an F-3:4 line (F-3-derived line in the F-4 generation) in 2001, and in 2003 was assigned experimental line number NH03164. NH03614 CL was released primarily for its herbicide tolerance to imadazolinone compounds which control many previously difficult-to-control weeds in wheat production systems, and for its superior adaptation to rainfed wheat production systems in Nebraska, Wyoming, South Dakota, and counties in adjacent states.

AB Limited input producers may adopt no-till production if sufficient weed suppression can be achieved. High-biomass producing cover crops used in conjunction with organic mulches may provide sufficient weed control in no-till vegetable production. Our objective was to quantify weed suppression from a forage soybean summer cover crop and three types of organic mulches applied after collard (Brassica oleracea L.) planting. Forage soybean residue did not suppress weeds, but mulches were generally effective. Broadleaf and sedge weeds decreased in population size over the three-year period, but grass weed management remained problematic until three years after conversion to no-till. Grass suppression was greater when mulches were applied after the first year. Collard yield, averaging 17,863 kg ha-1, was not affected by any cover crop or mulch treatment.

   Objective: To investigate the readability of immunostains processed by a novel automated 16-minute technique used for evaluation of frozen sections prepared during MMS for melanoma.
   Methods: A rapid automated instrument that performs MART-1 (melanoma antigen recognized by T cells) immunostains in 16 minutes was used to stain frozen sections and was compared with MART-1 stains of paraffin (permanent) sections, hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) stains of frozen and permanent sections from the positive or negative control specimens of the Mohs layers for melanoma. A total of 480 interpretations from 48 sections (4 types of stains for each Specimen, 12 specimens read by 10 interpreters) were analyzed via blinded examination by 5 dermatopathologists and 5 Molls surgeons at two institutions. A scoring system was used to assess the readability of each slide. Analysis of variance was used for statistical analysis.
   Results: In terms of clarity of interpreting melanoma sections, the 16-minute MART-1 IHC of frozen sections is equivalent to the standard MART-1 of permanent sections. The 16-minute MART-1 sections are also significantly easier to interpret than permanent sections stained with H&E for both the dermatopathologists and Mohs surgeons (P < .05).
   Limitations: The study represents data collected from only two institutions in the United States.
   Conclusion: The rapid-stained frozen IHC sections are significantly easier to interpret than the "gold standard" permanent sections stained with H&E. This technology facilitates the rapid interpretation of melanoma in frozen sections. (J Am Acad Dermatol 2011;64:107-12.)

AB This study was conducted to test three hypotheses: 1) barley malt osmolyte concentration (OC) would increase more rapidly during mashing than malt extract (ME); 2) OC would better discriminate between differing barley malts during mashing than ME; and 3) OC after mashing would better correlate with ASBC measures of malt quality than ME. Malts of six two-row and six six-row barley cultivars were mashed in a micromasher, and aliquots were removed for wort OC and ME measurements at six time points during a 115-min mashing regime. For all cultivars combined, over the first 55 min of mashing wort OC values increased 120% compared with 91% for ME. At the end of the mashing regime (115 min) won OC values further increased to 132%, whereas wort ME values remained approximately the same (91-92%). This indicates that the mass of material in wort remained approximately the same after 55 min but was further degraded to lower molecular weight compounds, increasing wort molarity and, thus, OC but not ME. Steptoe, a feed barley, was separated to a much greater degree from elite malting cultivars by wort OC than by ME values throughout the mashing regime. Except for very early in mashing (5 min), there was better separation of all cultivars by OC than by ME values throughout mashing, as determined with least significant difference analysis, indicating that OC may be better than ME for judging differences in cultivar malt quality. Linear correlations of time-course mash OC versus ME values were excellent for all cultivars combined (r = 0.977, P < 0.0001) and for two- and six-row cultivars separately. Correlations of the 115-min mashing OC and ME values with ASBC malt quality measurements were considerably better for OC than for ME (e.g., wort protein [r = 0.819, P = 0.001 for OC; r = 0.407, P = 0.189 for ME]; diastatic power [r = 0.765, P = 0.004 for OC; r = 0.287, P = 0.365 for ME]; a-amylase [r = 0.737, P = 0.006 for OC; r = 0.584, P = 0.046 for ME]; and beta-glucan [r = -0.0.754, P = 0.005 for OC; r = -0.0.595, P = 0.041 for ME]). This study supports all three hypotheses.

AB J. Am. Soc. Brew. Chem. 69(4):191-199, 2011
   Micromalting procedures for malt quality analysis typically use 150-500 g of barley and can produce malt with characteristics representative of malts produced on a commercial scale. Modifications to routine micromalting protocols, in which small quantities of grain contained within inexpensive mesh containers are surrounded by a larger quantity of grain in standard malting containers, allow representative malts to be generated from 2 g of barley. This reduced scale enables multiplexing of samples within a malting container, thereby increasing the potential malting throughput of existing micromalting, equipment. The combination of this extremely small-scale malting procedure with previously described reduced-quantity mashing and malt analysis procedures effectively expands the capacity for preliminary screening of malt quality characteristics, benefiting malting barley germplasm development programs by both increasing malting quality analysis sample throughput and reducing analysis turn-around time. In addition, the ability to generate and analyze representative malts on this very small scale would be useful in research studies where grain quantities are limited, such as might occur in specially developed genetic populations for basic research studies on the genetic and biochemical underpinnings of malting quality.

   This study was conducted to test the following hypotheses: 1) increases in barley wort total sugar concentrations during mashing would be greater than those for malt extract (ME) and more closely reflect increases in wort osmolyte concentrations (OC); and 2) individual wort sugars would correlate better with OC than ME. Malts from 12 barley cultivars were mashed, and wort sugars were quantified at six time points during mashing. Over the initial 55 min of mashing, total sugars for combined cultivars increased 110% compared with 120 and 91% for OC and ME, respectively. At the end of the mashing regime, total sugars for combined cultivars increased to 116% versus 132 and 91-92% for OC and ME, respectively. This indicates starch conversion to sugars was more closely reflected by OC than ME and that after 55 min of mashing sugars and OC continued to increase due to degradation of starch and other malt components to lower molecular weight compounds. In contrast, ME remained relatively constant, supporting the first hypothesis. LSD analysis of data from combined cultivars throughout mashing revealed that both OC and total sugars increased significantly from 55 to 70 degrees C, whereas ME did not, supporting the first hypothesis. Over all time points for combined cultivars, OC correlated better than ME with total sugar concentrations, supporting the second hypothesis. In correlations of individual sugar concentrations with ME and OC for combined and individual cultivars. OC correlated better than ME with all sugars and maltodextrins for combined cultivars and most individual cultivars, supporting the second hypothesis.

AB During the last decade there has been a continuous rise in consumption of fresh easy-to-peel mandarins. However, mandarins are much more perishable than other citrus fruit, mainly due to rapid deterioration in sensory acceptability after harvest. In the current review we discuss the biochemical components involved in forming the unique flavor of mandarins, and how postharvest storage operations influence taste and aroma and consequently consumer sensory acceptability. What we perceive as mandarin flavor is actually the combination of basic taste, aroma and mouth-feel. The taste of mandarins is principally governed by the levels of sugars and acids in the juice sacs and the relative ratios among them, whereas the aroma of mandarins is derived from a mixture of different aroma volatiles, including alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, terpenes/hydrocarbons and esters. During postharvest storage and marketing there is a gradual decrease in mandarin sensory acceptability, which has been attributed to decreases in acidity and typical mandarin flavor, paralleling an accumulation of off-flavor. Biochemical analysis of volatile and non-volatile constituents in mandarin juice demonstrated that these changes in sensory acceptability were concomitant with decreases in acidity and content of terpenes and aldehydes, which provide green, piney and citrus aroma on the one hand, and increases in ethanol fermentation metabolism products and esters on the other, which are likely to cause 'overripe' and off-flavors. Overall, we demonstrate the vast importance of the genetic background, maturity stage at harvest, commercial postharvest operation treatments, including curing, degreening and waxing, and storage duration on mandarin sensory quality.

AB A time series analysis method based on the calculation of Mann-Whitney U statistics is described. This method samples data rankings over running time windows, converts those samples to Mann-Whitney U statistics, and then normalizes the U statistics to Z statistics using Monte-Carlo generated null parameters. Based on the Z statistics' magnitudes this algorithm can identify time windows containing significant incidences of low or high data rankings, where the window length is determined by the sample size. By repeating this process with sampling windows of varying duration ranking regimes of arbitrary onset and duration can be objectively identified in a time series. The simplicity of the procedure's output - a time series' most significant non-overlapping ranking sequences - makes it possible to graphically identify common temporal breakpoints and patterns of variability in the analyses of multiple time series. This approach is demonstrated using United States annual temperature data during 1896-2008.

AB Bovine viral diarrhea viruses are economically important pathogens of cattle. Most infections in susceptible animals are acquired from animals persistently infected with the virus. Surveillance programs rely on skin biopsies of persistently infected (PI) cattle to detect the infection. The purpose of this study was to compare antigen capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ACE) testing results using different types of samples from PI animals. The intent was to determine comparative detection rates in types of samples that are frequently submitted to diagnostic laboratories for evaluation of cases of unknown etiology or samples that could be easily collected for Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) screening. Eight types of samples were collected from 40 PI animals. The sample types were ear notches, serum, nasal swabs, conjunctival swabs, oral swabs, rectal swabs, vaginal/preputial swabs, and a tail skin fold biopsy. Each type of sample (n = 8) for each animal (n = 40) was evaluated with a commercial ACE kit. When using ACE, tail-skin fold and nasal swab samples were 100% sensitive compared with results using ear notches. Sensitivity using other samples was as follows: serum and vaginal/preputial swabs, 92%; conjunctival swabs, 64%; rectal swabs, 10%; oral swabs, 8%. Testing of tail skin fold biopsies, nasal swabs, and ear notch samples resulted in reliable results. In contrast, other sample types were unreliable for diagnosis of persistent infection in calves.

AB A simple and sensitive dot blot hybridization assay using a digoxigenin-labeled cRNA polyprobe was developed for the simultaneous detection of six viroids that infect pome and stone fruit trees. The polyprobe was constructed by cloning sequentially partial sequences of each viroid into a single vector, with run-off transcription driven by the 17 promoter. All six viroids were detectable within a dilution range of 5(-3) to 5(-4) in total nucleic acid extracts from infected trees. Individual trees were co-inoculated to create mixed infections and all four pome fruit viroids and both stone fruit viroids could be detected in pear and peach trees, respectively, using the polyprobe. The results of the assays using the polyprobe were comparable to those using single probes. The methods were validated by testing geographically diverse isolates of viroids, as well as field samples from several collections in the US. The assay offers a rapid, reliable and cost-effective approach to the simultaneous detection of six fruit trees viroids and has the potential for routine use in quarantine, certification, and plant genebank programs where many samples are tested and distributed worldwide.

TI Modifications in the Polymerase Genes of a Swine-Like Triple-Reassortant
   Influenza Virus To Generate Live Attenuated Vaccines against 2009
   Pandemic H1N1 Viruses

AB On 11 June 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared that the outbreaks caused by novel swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus had reached pandemic proportions. The pandemic H1N1 (H1N1pdm) virus is the predominant influenza virus strain in the human population. It has also crossed the species barriers and infected turkeys and swine in several countries. Thus, the development of a vaccine that is effective in multiple animal species is urgently needed. We have previously demonstrated that the introduction of temperature-sensitive mutations into the PB2 and PB1 genes of an avian H9N2 virus, combined with the insertion of a hemagglutinin (HA) tag in PB1, resulted in an attenuated (att) vaccine backbone for both chickens and mice. Because the new pandemic strain is a triple-reassortant (TR) virus, we chose to introduce the double attenuating modifications into a swine-like TR virus isolate, A/turkey/OH/313053/04 (H3N2) (ty/04), with the goal of producing live attenuated influenza vaccines (LAIV). This genetically modified backbone had impaired polymerase activity and restricted virus growth at elevated temperatures. In vivo characterization of two H1N1 vaccine candidates generated using the ty/04 att backbone demonstrated that this vaccine is highly attenuated in mice, as indicated by the absence of signs of disease, limited replication, and minimum histopathological alterations in the respiratory tract. A single immunization with the ty/04 att-based vaccines conferred complete protection against a lethal H1N1pdm virus infection in mice. More importantly, vaccination of pigs with a ty/04 att-H1N1 vaccine candidate resulted in sterilizing immunity upon an aggressive intratracheal challenge with the 2009 H1N1 pandemic virus. Our studies highlight the safety of the ty/04 att vaccine platform and its potential as a master donor strain for the generation of live attenuated vaccines for humans and livestock.

AB Although wild clucks are recognized reservoirs for avian influenza viruses (AIM) and avian paramyxoviruses (APMVs), information related to the prevalence of these viruses in breeding and migratory, duck populations on North American wintering grounds is limited. Wintering (n=2,889) and resident breeding (n=524) clucks were sampled in North Carolina during winter 2004-2006 and summer 2005-2006, respectively. Overall prevalence of AIV was 0.8% and restricted to the winter sample; however, prevalence in species within the genus An as was 1.3% and was highest in Black Ducks (7%; Anas rubripes) and Northern Shovelers (8%; Arias elypeata). Of the 24 ATVs, 16 subtypes were detected, representing nine hemagglutinin and seven neuraminidase subtypes. Avian paramyxoviruses detected in wintering birds included 1.8 APMV-1s, 1.5 APMV-4s, and one APMV-6. During summers 2005 and 2006, a high prevalence of APMV-1 infection was observed in resident breeding Wood Ducks (Aix sponsa) and Mallards (Anas platyrhynehos).

AB Fates of individuals outfitted with radiotransmitters commonly are used for estimating survival rates in populations of large animals that are hunted. Despite precautions, this practice may be subject to complex biases associated with hunter reaction to presence of radiotransmitters. To assess this potential bias we conducted an experiment using artificial deer (i.e., decoys) to measure hunters' abilities to see deer and determine if deer seen were wearing radiocollars. We used logistic regression to quantify probabilities that seeing deer and subsequently seeing radiocollars might be influenced by distance, percent visual obstruction, body orientation, hunter experience, and antler characteristics of deer. Additionally, we evaluated how experience and antler characteristics of deer might influence a hunter's decision to harvest a radiocollared deer. We found that 25.8% of the potentially observable collared deer (n = 663) were subsequently observed by hunters. Odds of observing deer and radiocollars increased 95% and 230%, respectively, for each additional log(yr) of hunting experience. Willingness to harvest radiocollared deer increased 89% for each additional log(yr) of hunting experience and 144% for large-antlered deer relative to antlerless deer. When hunting is an important source of mortality, analysts need to understand how potential biases associated with observing deer are associated with hunters' reactions to and subsequent decisions to harvest radiocollared animals. Our study suggested that presence of radiocollars may influence a deer's potential risk of being harvested and in turn bias telemetry-based estimates of survival, given that hunting mortality is the largest component of total mortality in hunted deer populations. Collar-based telemetry is used nearly universally by wildlife managers and researchers throughout North America and elsewhere to estimate and monitor the survival of big game populations that are managed through hunting. Our findings demonstrate that these estimates are likely subject to complex and systematic biases that managers should consider when evaluating future population-level effects of managed hunting.

AB Raman spectroscopy is being increasingly applied to study wood and other lignin-containing biomass/biomaterials. Lignin's contribution to the Raman spectra of such materials needs to be understood in the context of various lignin structures, substructures, and functional groups so that lignin-specific features could be identified and the spectral information could be interpreted usefully. Additionally, to enhance the utility of Raman as a characterization tool, an understanding of chemical-treatment-induced changes to the lignin spectrum is important. In the present work, Raman spectra of four milled-wood lignins (MWLs)-black spruce, loblolly pine, aspen, and sweetgum-were compared, and using black spruce MWL, spectral changes brought about by alkaline hydrogen peroxide bleaching, hydrogenation, acetylation, and methylation reactions were analyzed. The band intensity changes depended upon the nature of the chemical treatments.

AB Background. In a robust and consistent manner, sustained caloric restriction (CR) has been shown to retard the aging process in a variety of animal species. Nonhuman primate studies suggest that CR may have similar effects in longer-lived species. The CALERIE (Comprehensive Assessment of the Long-term Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy) research program is the first systematic investigation of CR in nonobese human beings. In the phase 2 study, it is hypothesized that 2 years of sustained CR, involving a 25% reduction of ad libitum energy intake, results in beneficial effects similar to those observed in animal studies. This article presents the design and implementation of this study.
   Methods. The study is a multicenter, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial. A sample of 225 participants (22.0 <= body mass index [BMI] < 28.0 kg/m(2)) is being enrolled with 2: 1 allocation to CR.
   Results. An intensive dietary and behavioral intervention was developed to achieve 25% CR and sustain it over the 2 years. Adherence is monitored using a doubly labeled water technique. Primary outcomes are resting metabolic rate and core temperature, and are assessed at baseline and at 6-month intervals. Secondary outcomes address oxyradical formation, cardiovascular risk markers, insulin sensitivity and secretion, immune function, neuroendocrine function, quality of life and cognitive function. Biologic materials are stored in a central repository.
   Conclusions. An intricate protocol has been developed to conduct this study. Procedures have been implemented to safeguard the integrity of the data and the conclusions drawn. The results will provide insight into the detrimental changes associated with the human aging process and how CR mitigates these effects.

AB Background. Muscle power is related to mobility function in older adults, and effective power production requires rapid neuromuscular activation. Accordingly, this study examines the association of neuromuscular activation rate with muscle performance in persons of different age and mobility function.
   Methods. Participants were recruited to three experimental groups: middle-aged healthy adults (MH), older healthy adults (OH), and older adults with mobility limitations (OML). OH and OML were primarily differentiated by performance on the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB). Muscle performance (acceleration and power) and electromyography (EMG) were recorded during a maximal-effort leg press task at an absolute resistance (260 N) and at a relative resistance (70% of the one-repetition maximum [1RM]). Neuromuscular activation rate was quantified as pre-movement time (duration between EMG onset and movement onset) and the rate of EMG rise.
   Results. Pre-movement time, rate of EMG rise, leg press acceleration, and leg press power were lower in OML relative to MH and OH but did not differ between OH and MH, with the exception of power at 70% 1RM. Across all older participants, rate of EMG rise was positively associated with acceleration, power, and the SPPB score.
   Conclusions. Slowing of neuromuscular activation rate is associated with compromised dynamic muscle performance, which may contribute to mobility limitations in some older adults. Future research should identify the precise neurophysiological impairments that contribute to declines in neuromuscular activation rate and mobility function with aging.

AB Background. In the HORMA (Hormonal Regulators of Muscle and Metabolism in Aging) Trial, supplemental testosterone and recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) enhanced lean body mass, appendicular skeletal muscle mass, muscle performance, and physical function, but there was substantial interindividual variability in outcomes.
   Methods. One hundred and twelve men aged 65-90 years received testosterone gel (5 g/d vs 10 g/d via Leydig cell clamp) and rhGH (0 vs 3 vs 5 mu g/kg/d) in a double-masked 2 x 3 factorial design for 16 weeks. Outcomes included lean tissue mass by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry, one-repetition maximum strength, Margaria stair power, and activity questionnaires. We used pathway analysis to determine the relationship between changes in hormone levels, muscle mass, strength, and function.
   Results. Increases in total testosterone of 1046 ng/dL (95% confidence interval = 1040-1051) and 898 ng/dL (95% confidence interval = 892-904) were necessary to achieve median increases in lean body mass of 1.5 kg and appendicular skeletal muscle mass of 0.8 kg, respectively, which were required to significantly enhance one-repetition maximum strength (>= 30%). Co-treatment with rhGH lowered the testosterone levels (quantified using liquid chromatographytandem mass spectrometry) necessary to reach these lean mass thresholds. Changes in one-repetition maximum strength were associated with increases in stair climbing power (r =.26, p =.01). Pathway analysis supported the model that changes in testosterone and insulin-like growth factor 1 levels are related to changes in lean body mass needed to enhance muscle performance and physical function. Testosterone's effects on physical activity were mediated through a different pathway because testosterone directly affected Physical Activity Score of the Elderly.
   Conclusions. To enhance muscle strength and physical function, threshold improvements in lean body mass and appendicular skeletal muscle mass are necessary and these can be achieved by targeting changes in testosterone levels. rhGH augments the effects of testosterone. To maximize functional improvements, the doses of anabolic hormones should be titrated to achieve target blood levels.

AB Planners have long been interested in understanding ways in which land use planning approaches play out on the ground and planning scholars have approached the task of evaluating such effects using a variety of methods. Oregon, in particular, has been the focus of numerous studies owing to its early-adopted and widely recognized statewide approach to farm and forest land protection and recent experiment with relaxation of that approach in 2004 with the passage of ballot Measure 37. In this paper we review research-based evidence regarding the forest and farm land conservation effects of Oregon land use planning. We document the evolution of methods used in evaluating state land use planning program performance, including trend analysis, indicator analysis, empirical models, and analysis of indirect effects on the economic viability of forestry and farming. We also draw on data documenting Measure 37 claims to consider the degree to which Measure 37 might have altered land use and development trends had its impacts not been tempered by a subsequent ballot measure - Measure 49. Finally, we provide a synthesis of the current state of knowledge and suggest opportunities for future research. Common to nearly all of the studies we reviewed was an acknowledgement of the difficulty in establishing causal relationships between land use planning and land use change given the many exogenous and endogenous factors involved. Despite these difficulties, we conclude that sufficient evidence does exist to suggest that Oregon's land use planning program is contributing a measurable degree of protection to forest and farm land in the state.

AB Aims:
   To estimate prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility of enterococci in faeces collected in 2007 from U.S. dairy cattle.
   Methods and Results:
   A total of 718 faecal samples from 122 dairy cattle operations from 17 US States were collected and cultured for the presence of enterococci. One hundred and eighteen of the 122 operations (96 center dot 7%) had at least one dairy cow positive for enterococci and 88 center dot 7% (637 of 718) of the faecal samples were positive. At least ten different enterococcal species were found on the dairy operations and 90 center dot 7% (107 of 118) of the operations were positive for Enterococcus hirae followed by E. faecalis (40 center dot 7%; 48 of 118) and E. faecium (39%; 46 of 118). The highest percentage of resistant isolates were to lincomycin (92 center dot 3%; 587 of 636), flavomycin (71 center dot 9%; 457 of 636) and tetracycline (24 center dot 5%; 156 of 636). Multi-drug resistance (MDR) (resistance >= 2 antimicrobials) was observed to as many as seven antimicrobials regardless of class.
   Conclusion:
   In contrast to previous studies, faecal shedding of enterococci in dairy cattle occurred in almost 90% of cows sampled and represented a variety of enterococcal species.
   Significance and Impact of Study:
   Although this study demonstrated a high prevalence of antimicrobial-resistant enterococci from dairy cattle faeces in the United States, the contribution of dairy cattle as a source of antimicrobial-resistant enterococci that can be transmitted to humans remains unclear.

AB Dielectric properties of external surface, internal tissue and juice of Fuji apples during the last two months of tree-ripening were measured with an open-ended coaxial-line probe and a network analyzer at 24 degrees C from 10 to 4500 MHz. The firmness, soluble solids content (SSC), pH, moisture content and electrical conductivity were also measured to determine whether permittivity is related to apple quality. During the tree-ripening period, the permittivity and electrical conductivity did not reveal obvious trends. Moisture content and SSC remained essentially constant, while the firmness decreased and pH increased with maturity. No obvious correlations were found between permittivity and firmness, moisture content or pH. The linear relationship between surface permittivity and SSC was poor (R-2 < 0.2). The best R-2 for linear regression between loss tangent of tissue and SSC and between dielectric constant of juice and SSC was 0.61 and 0.67, respectively, at 4500 MHz. Further studies are needed to assess the potential usefulness of dielectric properties for sensing apple maturity or internal quality. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB This chapter describes an easy, rapid, and low-cost sample preparation approach for the determination of pesticide residues in foods using gas and/or liquid chromatographic (GC and/or LC) analytical separation and mass spectrometric (MS) detection. The approach is known as QuEChERS, which stands for "quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe." Originally, QuEChERS was a particular "method" for pesticide residue analysis, but it is very flexible and has evolved into an "approach," which has been used in many methods, and not just for pesticide residues. Two of the QuEChERS versions using buffering have been validated in interlaboratory trials for dozens of pesticides in several food matrices, and both have successfully met performance criteria to achieve "official" status from international standard organizations (AOAC Official Method 2007.01 and CEN Standard Method EN 15662). The main aspects of the QuEChERS approach consists of extraction of a well-homogenized sample by shaking with solvent (typically acetonitrile) in a centrifuge tube, salt-out partitioning of water with salts including magnesium sulfate (MgSO4), and cleanup using "dispersive solid-phase extraction" (dSPE), in which common matrix components are retained by sorbent(s) and the analytes remain in the extract. For widest analytical scope, concurrent analysis is done for hundreds of pesticides using GC-MS(/MS) and LC-MS/MS. The aim of this chapter is to review the QuEChERS sample preparation methodology and provide a summary Of up-to-date information with modification options depending on the application needs.

AB SCHAAL, K., M. D. VAN LOAN, and G. A. CASAZZA. Reduced Catecholamine Response to Exercise in Amenorrheic Athletes. Med. Sci. Sports Exerc., Vol. 43, No. 1, pp. 34-43, 2011. Studies have found an array of endocrine disturbances related to energy deprivation in women with functional hypothalamic amenorrhea. Purpose: We examined the catecholamine response to exercise in five eumenorrheic (EU) and five amenorrheic (AM) athletes, matched by age (mean +/- SEM: EU = 29.8 +/- 2.5 yr and AM = 31.0 +/- 4.3 yr) and running volume (EU = 56.4 +/- 8.1 km.wk(-1) and AM = 61.5 +/- 6.4 km.wk(-1)). Methods: Subjects performed a maximal treadmill test followed by a 30-min recovery and then a submaximal running test, consisting of 4-min stages at 60%, 70%, and 80% and 15 min at 85% of peak oxygen consumption ((V) over dotO(2peak)). Blood was drawn after each stage to measure glucose, lactate, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and cortisol concentrations. HR, blood pressure, and rate of perceived exertion were also measured at each stage. Results: There were no differences between groups in body composition or (V) over dotO(2peak) (EU = 57.3 +/- 2.3 mL.kg(-1)min(-1) and AM = 54.1 +/- 1.2 mL.kg(-1).min(-1)). Resting HR and mean arterial pressure were significantly (P <= 0.05) lower in AM. Norepinephrine was lower in AM at 70%, 80%, 85%, and 100% of (V) over dotO(2peak) (EU = 7784.5 +/- 582.9 pg.mL(-1) and AM = 3626.1 +/- 271.4 pg.mL(-1) at (V) over dotO(2peak)). Epinephrine (EU = 1470.3 +/- 275.1 pg.mL(-1) and AM = 416.9 +/- 67.5 pg.mL(-1)) and blood lactate (EU = 10.1 +/- 1.2 mmol.L(-1) and AM = 6.7 +/- 0.9 mmol.L(-1)) were lower at (V) over dotO(2peak) in AM. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate a reduced adrenergic response to intense exercise in AM athletes as indicated by reduced blood lactate and catecholamine concentrations. A suppressed catecholamine response could decrease performance by reducing the sympathetic drive essential for the cardiovascular and metabolic adjustments needed to maintain high intensities of exercise.

AB Genome-based Flux Balance Analysis (FBA) and steady-state isotopic-labeling-based Metabolic Flux Analysis (MFA) are complimentary approaches to predicting and measuring the operation and regulation of metabolic networks. Here, genome-derived models of Escherichia coli (E. coli) metabolism were used for FBA and C-13-MFA analyses of aerobic and anaerobic growths of wild-type E. coli (K-12 MG1655) cells. Validated MFA flux maps reveal that the fraction of maintenance ATP consumption in total ATP production is about 14% higher under anaerobic (51.1%) than aerobic conditions (37.2%). FBA revealed that an increased ATP utilization is consumed by ATP synthase to secrete protons from fermentation. The TCA cycle is shown to be in complete in aerobically growing cells and submaximal grow this due to limited oxidative phosphorylation. An FBA was successful in predicting product secretion rates in aerobic culture if both glucose and oxygen up take measurement were constrained, but the most-frequently predicted values of internal fluxes yielded from sampling the feasible space differ substantially from MFA-derived fluxes.

AB Use of agricultural system models in field research requires a full understanding of both the model and the system it simulates. This chapter provides a protocol on how to parameterize the USDA-ARS, Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM2), which contains the DSSAT (Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer) version 4.0 crop growth modules and the SHAW (Simultaneous Heat and Water) energy balance modules. It summarizes input data requirements of soil, weather, and plants, as well as the minimum data needed to calibrate the model. Calibration of each component or process is illustrated, along with possible adjustable parameters. An iterative procedure for model calibration is emphasized. Difficulties in model application are presented, along with possible solutions. However, the steps for model calibration are still in the trial-and-error stage and can vary from application to application. Model users should benefit from the materials in this chapter by combining them with those in the RZWQM2 user manual released with the model.

AB Model calibration, validation, and sensitivity analysis are essential processes in the application and evaluation of computer simulation models. The utility of a model requires consideration of parameter selection, sensitivity analysis, calibration, and validation, but the extent to which each of these aspects is pursued depends on the reasons for model use. This chapter discusses calibration, validation, and sensitivity analysis for the LEACHM model and an example of its performance using field measured annual water drainage fluxes and NOB N leaching losses under a continuous corn (Zea mays L.) cropping system. LEACHM calibration was performed to optimize the match between simulated and measured field data collected from control, fertilized, and manure treatments. The model was calibrated to the field site conditions using 1989-1990 data from a long-term leaching experiment conducted on a Hagerstown silt loam soil. The initial stage of calibration focused on small changes to soil water flow parameters in the model. The second phase, calibration, focused on input parameters controlling soil N transformation processes and rate constants in the model. After the calibration process was completed, the model was validated using 1988-1989,1990-1991,1991-1992, and 1992-1993 data by comparing model simulations with field measured data. Sensitivity analyses were performed on the calibrated LEACHM model by changing the values of input parameters within acceptable ranges. The LEACHM model was slightly sensitive to most input parameters; however, it was very sensitive to denitrification rates, initial soil water potential/water content, and the b parameter in the Campbell equation.

AB DayCent (Daily CENTURY) is a biogeochemical model of intermediate complexity used to simulate flows of carbon and nutrients for crop, grassland, forest, and savanna ecosystems. Required model inputs are soil texture, current and historical land use, vegetation cover, daily maximum and minimum temperature, and daily precipitation. For calibrating the model, we recommend testing model performance in the following order: soil water content, crop yield and plant growth, changes in soil organic matter levels, and N loss vectors. Different statistics should be used when evaluating model performance, including correlation coefficients, root mean square error, and mean error. For vectors that are highly variable in time (e.g., N2O emissions), the model can represent treatment impacts on seasonal emissions correctly, but not necessarily the timing at the daily scale. In addition to comparing model outputs with field observations, comparisons with alternative models are advocated to more fully evaluate model performance. Some of the most uncertain model outputs include N-2, NH3, and NOx, losses because these vectors are rarely measured in field experiments. Web accessible databases that include comprehensive model driver and testing data are needed to facilitate model comparisons and evaluation. DayCent has been used to simulate the impacts of climate and land use change on various crop, grassland, and forest systems around the world and is currently used to estimate soil N2O emissions from cropped and grazed lands for the annual U.S. inventory of greenhouse gases compiled by the USEPA.

AB One of the major limitations to rangeland model usage is the lack of parameter values appropriate for reliable simulations at different locations and times. In this chapter we seek to show how the GPFARM-Range, a rangeland model, which has been previously parameterized, tested, and validated for the central locations of the Great Plains, could be reparameterized to extend its domain of application to other locations of the Plains. Two main parameter determination methods are proposed: (i) manual adjustment of default parameter values and (ii) direct empirical parameter determination from some experimental data. It was recommended that in view of the level of information and expertise required for the second method, at this point the users should follow the first method comparing the simulated output with observed data in a statistical sense such that the sum of squared deviations between the simulated and observed is minimized. It is noteworthy, however, that the published literature is a major source of data that could be used for parameterizing models. A number of texts are suggested for consultation to assist in the empirical determination of parameter values. It is shown that by varying the default values of only a few key parameters, the GPFARM-Range model could simulate forage growth under varying weather and grazing conditions at Miles City, located in northern part of the Great Plains.

AB Estimation of a number of parameters using simulation models has proven to be a valuable source of information from which we can assess the impact of scenarios that would be difficult to determine experimentally, or for which it would be difficult to conceptualize an appropriate experiment design. However, simulation models require extensive inputs that are not always easily found or exist at the spatial or temporal resolution needed for the models. Many simulation models require energy inputs that represent the energy balance of the surface, and there have been several attempts to derive different inputs. There have been various methods to estimate solar radiation from combinations of air temperature, altitude, and precipitation. Albedo has been estimated from several different methods using either combinations of reflectance or simple regression models. Long-wave radiation from the atmosphere has been estimated using regression models of vapor pressure and air temperature. Many of these parameterizations have been derived using locally available data, and efforts are needed for broader evaluation of these methods. Crop simulation models produce a variety of estimates for plant growth; among these are leaf area index, biomass, and ground cover. These parameters can be measured directly, often a laborious task and not at the scale needed for model evaluation, or they can be estimated from remotely sensed observations. This approach not only provides an independent measure of the crop parameters to compare with model simulations, but a potential feedback into the model simulation to help correct the model over time. Challenges remain in our efforts to improve models and provide the input necessary to further our ability to understand the complexities of the interactions in the soil plant atmosphere continuum.

AB Use of agricultural system models in field research requires quality weather data for input. This chapter provides methods to assess the integrity of rainfall, radiation, and humidity input for the Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM). These methods were applied to a recent RZWQM application at Walnut Creek in central Iowa. Data bias of 10% in humidity, rainfall, and solar radiation results in long-term errors of more than 40% for nitrate loss in tile drains from these RZWQM simulations. Actual weather records show measurement errors in rain, solar radiation, and humidity of 10% or more. The quality assurance procedures described here will help model users detect erroneous weather measurements, which will help improve their model simulations through more accurate simulations and higher confidence in the weather input.

AB This chapter presents guidelines for autocalibration of the Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM2) by inverse modeling using PEST parameter estimation software (Doherty, 2010). Two sites with diverse climate and management were considered for simulation of N losses by leaching and in drain flow: an almond [Prunus dulcis (Mill.) D.A. Webb] orchard in the San Joaquin Valley, California and the Walnut Creek watershed in central Iowa, which is predominantly in corn (Zen mays L.) soybean [Glycine max (L.) Mem] rotation. Inverse modeling provides an objective statistical basis for calibration that involves simultaneous adjustment of model parameters and yields parameter confidence intervals and sensitivities. We describe operation of PEST in both parameter estimation and predictive analysis modes. The goal of parameter estimation is to identify a unique set of parameters that minimize a weighted least squares objective function, and the goal of predictive analysis is to construct a nonlinear confidence interval for a prediction of interest by finding a set of parameters that maximizes or minimizes the prediction while maintaining the model in a calibrated state. We also describe PEST utilities (PAR2PAR, TSPROC) for maintaining ordered relations among model parameters (e.g., soil root growth factor) and for post-processing of RZWQM2 outputs representing different cropping practices at the Iowa site. Inverse modeling provided reasonable fits to observed water and N fluxes and directly benefited the modeling through: (i) simultaneous adjustment of multiple parameters versus one-at-a-time adjustment in manual approaches; (ii) clear indication by convergence criteria of when calibration is complete; (iii) straightforward detection of nonunique and insensitive parameters, which can affect the stability of PEST and RZWQM2; and (iv) generation of confidence intervals for uncertainty analysis of parameters and model predictions. Composite scaled sensitivities, which reflect the total information provided by the observations for a parameter, indicated that most of the RZWQM2 parameters at the California study site (CA) and Iowa study site (IA) could be reliably estimated by regression. Correlations obtained in the CA case indicated that all model parameters could be uniquely estimated by inverse modeling. Although water content at field capacity was highly correlated with bulk density (-0.94), the correlation is less than the threshold for nonuniqueness (0.95, absolute value basis). Additionally, we used truncated singular value decomposition (SVD) at CA to mitigate potential problems with highly correlated and insensitive parameters. Singular value decomposition estimates linear combinations (eigenvectors) of the original process-model parameters. Parameter confidence intervals (Os) at CA indicated that parameters were reliably estimated with the possible exception of an organic pool transfer coefficient (R45), which had a comparatively wide Cl. However, the 95% confidence interval for R45 (0.03-0.35) is mostly within the range of values reported for this parameter. Predictive analysis at CA generated confidence intervals that were compared with independently measured annual water flux (groundwater recharge) and median nitrate concentration in a collocated monitoring well as part of model evaluation. Both the observed recharge (42.3 cm yr-') and nitrate concentration (24.3 mg L') were within their respective 90% confidence intervals, indicating that overall model error was within acceptable limits.

AB Parameterization of a system model includes both calibration and evaluation. Calibration is to derive a set of parameters that adequately describe a dataset from an experiment, whereas evaluation (or validation in the liberal sense) is to predict the behavior of the calibrated model under different experimental conditions (or independent datasets). However, due to the complexity of system models, there has not been a standard method to parameterize a system model. Methods reported in this book and elsewhere are often model and user dependent. Although manual calibration requires much experience on the users' side, autocalibration is not an easy task because of the high level of skills needed for using sophisticated computer software and for constructing an objective function upon which to optimize. In addition, automated calibration procedure may vary with the data available for calibration and preference on constructing the objective function. However, these chapters clearly set up the principles for model parameterization in terms of sequential calibration of a model, quality control of input data, balanced calibration among system components, and needs for datasets that cover a wide range of experimental conditions. This chapter also identifies research needs for further improvement in model parameterization, such as better collaboration between modelers and field scientists, taking into account the spatial and temporal variability of field measurements, development of science modules in a common platform for better communication among modelers, and better education for the next generation of system modelers.

AB Fumonisin mycotoxins are common contaminants in many grains, often at very low levels. Maize is particularly problematic as one of the organisms that commonly produce fumonisins, the fungus Fusarium verticillioides, often exists as an endophyte of maize. Fumonisin is a potent inhibitor of the enzyme ceramide synthase, and this inhibition results in the accumulation of a variety of upstream compounds, most notably, the sphingoid bases sphingosine, sphinganine, 1-deoxysphinganine and, in plants, phytosphingosine. Fumonisin exposure results in a wide variety of species, sex, and strain-specific responses. This method provides a relatively fast means of extracting fumonisins, sphingoid bases, and sphingoid base 1-phosphates from tissues and cells, as well as the subsequent analyses and quantification of these compounds using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry.

AB Although it is known that oxalic acid provides a selective advantage to the secreting microbe our understanding of how this acid is biosynthesized remains incomplete. This study reports the identification, cloning, and partial characterization of the oxalic acid biosynthetic enzyme from the animal bacterial pathogen, Burkholderia mallei. The discovered gene was named oxalate biosynthetic component (obc)1. Complementation of Burkholderia oxalate defective (Bod)1, a Burkholderia glumae mutant that lacks expression of a functional oxalic acid biosynthetic operon, revealed that the obc1 was able to rescue the no oxalate mutant phenotype. This single gene rescue is in contrast to the situation found in B. glumae which required the expression of two genes, obcA and obcB, to achieve complementation. Enzyme assays showed that even though the two Burkholderia species differed in the number of genes required to encode a functional enzyme, both catalyzed the same acyl-CoA dependent biosynthetic reaction. In addition, mutagenesis studies suggested a similar domain structure of the assembled oxalate biosynthetic enzymes whether encoded by one or two genes. Published by Elsevier GmbH.

AB This review evaluates evidence for benefits of including animal source foods (ASF) in the diets of children in developing countries. In observational studies, a higher usual intake of ASF in such countries is associated with better growth, status of some micronutrients, cognitive performance, motor development and activity. Only three randomized trials supplemented children with milk and compared outcomes with a nonintervention control group. Both height and weight growth were improved, although in Kenya height was increased only in younger schoolers who were stunted at baseline. Meat supplements have been evaluated in only two randomized controlled trials, in Kenya and Guatemala (mean baseline age 8 years and 1 year, respectively); growth was no better than in an equicaloric control group. Meat improved cognitive function and activity in Kenya; milk was less effective than meat for improving cognitive function and physical activity, perhaps due to its lower content of iron, zinc, or riboflavin. Meat anti especially cow's milk are excellent sources of vitamin B-12, a micronutrient commonly deficient in populations which consume low amounts of ASF. Other micronutrients such as iron have been added to cow's milk and resulted in improved nutritional outcomes for children. Copyright (C) 2011 Nestec Ltd., Vevey/S. Larger AG, Basel

In an effort to identify proteins that contribute to disease resistance in soybean we compared a susceptible Williams 82 cultivar to a resistant Williams 82 inbred isoline harboring the Rpp1 resistance gene (R-gene). Approximately 4975 proteins from nuclear preparations of leaves were detected using a high-throughput liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method. Many of these proteins have predicted nuclear localization signals, have homology to transcription factors and other nuclear regulatory proteins, and are phosphorylated. Statistics of summed spectral counts revealed sets of proteins with differential accumulation changes between susceptible and resistant plants. These protein accumulation changes were compared to previously reported gene expression changes and very little overlap was found. Thus, it appears that numerous proteins are post-translationally affected in the nucleus after infection. To our knowledge, this is the first indication of large-scale proteomic change in a plant nucleus after infection. Furthermore, the data reveal distinct proteins under control of Rpp1 and show that this disease resistance gene regulates nuclear protein accumulation. These regulated proteins likely influence broader defense responses, and these data may facilitate the development of plants with improved resistance.

AB Ethylene (ET) is a volatile hormone that modulates fruit ripening, plant growth, development and stress responses. Key components of the ET-signaling pathway identified by genetic dissection in Arabidopsis thaliana include five ET receptors, the negative regulator CTR1 and the positive regulator EIN2, all of which localize to the endoplasmic reticulum. Mechanisms of signaling among these proteins are still unresolved and targets of ET responses are not fully known. So, we used mass spectrometry to identify proteins in microsomal membrane preparations from etiolated A. thaliana seedlings maintained in ambient air or treated with ET for 3 h. We compared 3814 proteins from ET-exposed seedlings and controls and identified 304 proteins with significant accumulation changes. The proteins with increased accumulation were involved in ET biosynthesis, cell morphogenesis, oxidative stress and vesicle secretion while those with decreased accumulation were ribosomal proteins and proteins positively regulated by brassinosteroid, another hormone involved in cell elongation. Several proteins, including EIN2, appeared to be differentially phosphorylated upon ET treatment, which suggests that the activity or stability of these proteins may be controlled by phosphorylation. TUA3, a component of microtubules that contributes to cellular morphological change, exhibited both increased accumulation and differential phosphorylation upon ET treatment. To verify the role of TUA3 in the ET response, tua3 mutants were evaluated. Mutant seedlings had altered ET-associated growth movements. The data indicate that ET perception leads to rapid proteomic change and that these changes are an important part of signaling and development. The data serve as a foundation for exploring ET signaling through systems biology.

AB Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers are increasingly being used in crop breeding programs, slowly replacing simple sequence repeats (SSR) and other markers. SNPs provide many benefits over SSRs, including ease of analysis and unambiguous results across various platforms. We have identified and mapped SNP markers in the tropical tree crop Theobroma cacao, and here we compare SNPs to SSRs for the purpose of determining off-types in clonal collections. Clones are used as parents in breeding programs and the presence of mislabeled clones (off-types) can lead to the propagation of undesired traits and limit genetic gain from selection. Screening was performed on 186 trees representing 19 Theobroma cacao clones from the Institute of Agricultural Research for Development (IRAD) breeding program in Cameroon. Our objectives were to determine the correct clone genotypes and off-types using both SSR and SNP markers. SSR markers that amplify 11 highly polymorphic loci from six linkage groups and 13 SNP markers that amplify eight loci from seven linkage groups were used to genotype the 186 trees and the results from the two different marker types were compared. The SNP assay identified 98% of the off-types found via SSR screening. SNP markers spread across multiple linkage groups may serve as a more cost-effective and reliable method for off-type identification, especially in cacao-producing countries where the equipment necessary for SSR analysis may not be available.

AB The compelling elegance of using genome-wide scans to detect the signature of selection is difficult to resist, but is countered by the low demonstrated efficacy of pinpointing the actual genes and traits that are the targets of selection in nonmodel species. While the difficulty of going from a suggestive signature to a functional nucleotide polymorphism should not prevent researchers from using genome scans, it does lessen their long-term utility within and across study systems. In a new study published in this issue of Molecular Ecology (<link rid="b6">Mariac et al. 2011), researchers have gone a long way towards increasing the relevance of genome-wide scans for selection via two approaches: (i) they tailored the markers used in the scan to target a family of developmental genes that were good candidates for controlling a trait of interest and (ii) they used an independent mapping population to confirm the association of the gene with polymorphism in the trait of interest. All of this was completed in the nonmodel system of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) and may provide a road map for other researchers hoping to pin down solid candidate genes for selected traits in natural or cultivated systems. Outside of these broad methodological innovations, the paper specifically focuses on a trait (flowering time) that varies across an environmental gradient (rainfall). This environmental gradient potentially serves as a model for environmental change over time, and allele frequencies at the gene can therefore be used to track how populations of pearl millet will adapt to future climate shifts at the genetic level.

AB Elevated salinity imposes osmotic and ion toxicity stresses on living cells and requires a multitude of responses in order to enable plant survival. Building on earlier work profiling transcript levels in rice (Oryza sativa) shoots of FL478, a salt-tolerant indica recombinant inbred line, and IR29, a salt-sensitive cultivar, transcript levels were compared in roots of these two accessions as well as in the roots of two additional salt-tolerant indica genotypes, the landrace Pokkali and the recombinant inbred line IR63731. The aim of this study was to compare transcripts in the sensitive and the tolerant lines in order to identify genes likely to be involved in plant salinity tolerance, rather than in responses to salinity per se. Transcript profiles of several gene families with known links to salinity tolerance are described (e.g. HKTs, NHXs). The putative function of a set of genes identified through their salt responsiveness, transcript levels, and/or chromosomal location (i.e. underneath QTLs for salinity tolerance) is also discussed. Finally, the parental origin of the Saltol region in FL478 is further investigated. Overall, the dataset presented appears to be robust and it seems likely that this system could provide a reliable strategy for the discovery of novel genes involved in salinity tolerance.

AB Fusarium graminearum is an important plant-pathogenic fungus and the major cause of cereal head blight. Here, we report the functional analysis of FgStuA, the gene for a transcription factor with homology to key developmental regulators in fungi. The deletion mutant was greatly reduced in pathogenicity on wheat heads and in production of secondary metabolites. Spore production was significantly impaired in Delta FgStuA, which did not develop perithecia and sexual ascospores, and lacked conidiophores and phialides, leading to delayed production of aberrant macroconidia. FgStuAp appears to act as a global regulator that may affect many diverse aspects of the life cycle of E graminearum. Transcriptome analysis shows that thousands of genes are differentially expressed in the mutant during asexual sporulation and infection of wheat heads and under conditions that induce secondary metabolites, including many that could account for the mutant phenotypes observed. The primary regulatory targets of FgStuAp are likely genes involved in cell-cycle control, and the predicted FgStuAp sequence has an APSES domain, with homology to helix-loop-helix proteins involved in cell-cycle regulation. The Aspergillus StuAp response element (A/TCGCGT/ANA/C) was found highly enriched in the promoter sequences of cell-cycle genes, which was upregulated in the AFgStuA deletion mutant.

AB Fusarium head blight or scab caused by Fusarium graminearum is an important disease of wheat and barley. The pathogen not only causes severe yield losses but also contaminates infested grains with mycotoxins. In a previous study, we identified several pathogenicity mutants by random insertional mutagenesis. One of these mutants was disrupted in the ZIF1 gene, which encodes a b-ZIP transcription factor unique to filamentous ascomycetes. The Delta zif1 mutant generated by gene replacement was significantly reduced in deoxynivalenol (DON) production and virulence on flowering wheat heads. It was defective in spreading from inoculated florets to the rachis and other spikelets. Deletion of the ZIF1 ortholog MoZIF1 in the rice blast fungus also caused reductions in virulence and in invasive growth. In addition, the Delta zif1 mutant is defective in sexual reproduction. Although it had normal male fertility, when selfed or mated as the female in outcrosess, the Delta zif1 mutant produced small, pigmented perithecia that were sterile (lack of asci and ascospores), suggesting a female-specific role for ZIF1 during fertilization or ascus development. Similar female-specific defects in sexual reproduction were observed in the Delta Mozif1 mutant. When mated as the female, the Delta Mozif1 perithecia failed to develop long necks and asci or ascospores. The ZIF1 gene is well conserved in filamentous ascomycetes, particularly in the b-ZIP domain, which is essential for its function. Expression of ZIF1 in Magnaporthe oryzae complemented the defects of the Delta Mozif1 mutant. These results indicate that this b-ZIP transcription factor is functionally conserved in these two fungal pathogens for plant infection and sexual reproduction.

AB Pyrenophora teres, causal agent of net blotch of barley, exists in two forms, designated P. teres f. teres and P. teres f. maculata, which induce net form net blotch (NFNB) and spot form net blotch (SFNB), respectively. Significantly more work has been performed on the net form than on the spot form although recent activity in spot form research has increased because of epidemics of SFNB in barley-producing regions. Genetic studies have demonstrated that NFNB resistance in barley is present in both dominant and recessive forms, and that resistance/susceptibility to both forms can be conferred by major genes, although minor quantitative trait loci have also been identified. Early work on the virulence of the pathogen showed toxin effector production to be important in disease induction by both forms of pathogen. Since then, several laboratories have investigated effectors of virulence and avirulence, and both forms are complex in their interaction with the host. Here, we assemble recent information from the literature that describes both forms of this important pathogen and includes reports describing the host-pathogen interaction with barley. We also include preliminary findings from a genome sequence survey.

AB Micronuclei (MN) and other nuclear anomalies such as nucleoplasmic bridges (NPBs) and nuclear buds (NBUDs) are biomarkers of genotoxic events and chromosomal instability. These genome damage events can be measured simultaneously in the cytokinesis-block micronucleus cytome (CBMNcyt) assay. The molecular mechanisms leading to these events have been investigated over the past two decades using molecular probes and genetically engineered cells. In this brief review, we summarise the wealth of knowledge currently available that best explains the formation of these important nuclear anomalies that are commonly seen in cancer and are indicative of genome damage events that could increase the risk of developmental and degenerative diseases. MN can originate during anaphase from lagging acentric chromosome or chromatid fragments caused by misrepair of DNA breaks or unrepaired DNA breaks. Malsegregation of whole chromosomes at anaphase may also lead to MN formation as a result of hypomethylation of repeat sequences in centromeric and pericentromeric DNA, defects in kinetochore proteins or assembly, dysfunctional spindle and defective anaphase checkpoint genes. NPB originate from dicentric chromosomes, which may occur due to misrepair of DNA breaks, telomere end fusions, and could also be observed when defective separation of sister chromatids at anaphase occurs due to failure of decatenation. NBUD represent the process of elimination of amplified DNA, DNA repair complexes and possibly excess chromosomes from aneuploid cells.

AB DNA damage is a fundamental cause of developmental and degenerative diseases. The in vitro cytokinesis-block micronucleus cytome (CBMN-Cyt) assay is an established comprehensive method for assessing cytostasis and chromosome stability in cells. Originally developed to study the acute effects of single environmental genotoxicants, creative applications and adaptations to the basic protocol have allowed its use in evaluating the impacts of dietary micronutrients and micronutrient combinations (nutriomes) on DNA damage. In this review, we examine some of these studies and the important findings they have generated with respect to nutrient/nutrient, nutrient/genotype and nutrient/genotoxicant interactions, as well as assessment of the carcinogenic (or protective) potential of whole dietary patterns. In addition, we outline current knowledge gaps and technical limitations and propose future adaptations to enhance the applicability of the CBMN-Cyt method for in vivo predictions.

AB We examined genetic variation in the ascomycete pathogen Pyrenophora semeniperda cultured from seeds of the invasive grass Bromus tectorum in the Intermountain West of North America. We sequenced the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the nuclear ribosomal RNA genome in 417 monoconidial cultures collected from 20 sites in Washington, Idaho, Utah and Colorado, USA. ITS sequence diversity was surprisingly high; 12 unique haplotypes were identified, averaging 1.3% pairwise sequence divergence. All sites had at least two haplotypes present, and three sites had seven or more. One haplotype composed 60% of the isolates and occurred at all 20 locations; the remaining haplotypes generally occurred at low frequencies within sites but at multiple sites throughout the region. Sites in Washington and Idaho were more diverse than those in Utah and Colorado, averaging two more haplotypes and 67% more pairwise differences among haplotypes at a site. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) indicated that more than 80% of the genetic variation was found within sampling locations, while 7-11% of the variation can be attributed to differences between northern (Washington and Idaho) and southern (Utah and Colorado) populations. The wide distribution of even uncommon haplotypes among sampling sites and weak correlations between genetic and geographic distances among populations (< 0.2) suggested that these populations recently were established from a common source. We hypothesize that the strains of P. semeniperda infecting B. tectorum in western North America probably arrived with the invasive grass from its native Eurasian range.

AB The redhaired pine bark beetle Hylurgus ligniperda (F.) is native to Europe but was discovered in Los Angeles, California, in 2003. This root- and stump-feeding beetle is a common vector of Ophiostomatales, which are potential tree pathogens or causes of blue stain of conifer sapwood. In this study Ophiostomatales were isolated on a cycloheximide-amended medium from 118 adult H. ligniperda collected from infested logs of Pinus halepensis and P. pined at two sites in California. In total eight species of Ophiostomatales were identified and seven species that occasionally were isolated were unidentified. The most frequently isolated species were Ophiostoma ips and Grosmannia galeiforme, which were isolated respectively from 31% and 23% of the 118 beetles. The other species isolated included O. piceae (isolated from 9% of the beetles), O. querci (8%) and Leptographium tereforme sp. nov. (6%). Grosmannia huntii, L. serpens, three Sporothrix species, O. floccosum, O. stenoceras, two unidentified Hyalorhinocladiella sp. and a sterile fungus each were isolated from fewer then 5% of beetles. Most of the identified species already were known in USA and have been found in association with H. ligniperda in other countries. However the new species, L. tereforme, and G. galeiforme were recorded from USA for the first time, and this is the first report of L. serpens from western North America.

AB Sexual reproduction was examined in the aflatoxin-producing fungus Aspergillus nomius. Crosses between sexually compatible strains resulted in the formation of multiple nonostiolate ascocarps within stromata, which places the teleomorph in genus Petromyces. Ascocarp and ascospore morphology in Petromyces nomius were similar to that in P. flavus and P. parasiticus, and differences between teleomorphs were insufficient for species separation. Formation of mature ascocarps was infrequent, with only 24% of the 83 crosses producing viable ascospores. The majority of P. nomius strains contained a single mating-type gene (MAT1-1 or MAT1-2), but several strains contained both genes. MAT1-1/MAT1-2 strains were self-sterile and capable of mating with both MAT1-1 and MAT1-2 strains; hence P. nomius appears to be functionally heterothallic.

AB Pectin functionality is largely dependent on the ratio of methylesterified/demethylesterified galacturonic acid (GalA) residues present in its polymeric homogalacturonan region (40 - 60 nm in length, 100 - 150 GalA residues) and how the two types of GalAs are spatially distributed within that linear backbone. These distributions translate into an ordered vs. random distribution of ionic (demethylesterified) and neutral (methylesterified) regions. Enzymatic modification of pectin nanostructure by pectin methylesterase (PME) is the only known method to introduce ionic blocks into pectin having a relatively high degree of methylesterification (> 20%). We have been characterizing the statistical parameters of average demethylesterified block size (1 - 4 nm) and number of demethylesterified blocks per molecule (0.1- 2.0) following enzymatic or base demethylation of a model 94% DM homogalacturonan by excising demethylated blocks using limited endo polygalacturonase digestion. Additionally, for enzymatic demethylation we have modeled enzyme mode of action. We will report on results obtained by demethylation with several pectin methylesterase isozymes as well as by random acting fungal PME and chemical saponification. Additionally we will present results for rheological properties related to nanostructural modifications.

AB Forests dominated by old growth ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl.) at Crater Lake, Oregon, have been viewed as good candidates for restoration via prescribed burning. Previous burn experiments in this ecosystem observed that ponderosa pine typically survived burning treatments but suffered high post-fire mortality from bark beetle attacks. This paper describes the results of four years of post-fire monitoring of ponderosa pine mortality and resin flow in areas subjected to low intensity spring burning (SB), moderate intensity fall burning (FB), or no burning (unburned controls, UC). Crown vigor estimates, correlated with ring width indices, were also included as a factor in mortality and resin flow analyses. Burn treatment was significant in both ponderosa pine mortality and resin flow, as follows: FB > SB > UC. These results suggest that resin defenses overall did not protect trees from post-fire beetle attacks. Crown vigor was positively related to both survival and resin flow. The relationships between burning, tree vigor, and resin defenses in this study suggest a complex web of interactions. Although some physiological mechanisms are still unconfirmed, these findings suggest that beetles may have been attracted to ponderosa pine following burning, perhaps via the release of volatile resin compounds. Following attraction, resin defenses appear to have been important for protecting trees from beetle attacks, with greater defenses in trees with higher crown vigor and higher growth rates. Management recommendations, including a gradual and incremental approach to fire restoration in these stands, are suggested.

ID BOREAL FOREST; INTERIOR ALASKA; CLIMATE-CHANGE; FIRE; PERMAFROST;
   EMISSIONS; SEVERITY
AB Climate change has increased the area affected by forest fires each year in boreal North America(1,2). Increases in burned area and fire frequency are expected to stimulate boreal carbon losses(3-5). However, the impact of wildfires on carbon emissions is also affected by the severity of burning. How climate change influences the severity of biomass burning has proved difficult to assess. Here, we examined the depth of ground-layer combustion in 178 sites dominated by black spruce in Alaska, using data collected from 31 fire events between 1983 and 2005. We show that the depth of burning increased as the fire season progressed when the annual area burned was small. However, deep burning occurred throughout the fire season when the annual area burned was large. Depth of burning increased late in the fire season in upland forests, but not in peatland and permafrost sites. Simulations of wildfire-induced carbon losses from Alaskan black spruce stands over the past 60 years suggest that ground-layer combustion has accelerated regional carbon losses over the past decade, owing to increases in burn area and late-season burning. As a result, soils in these black spruce stands have become a net source of carbon to the atmosphere, with carbon emissions far exceeding decadal uptake.

AB Nematodes were isolated from surface-sterilised stems of cheatgrass, Bromus tectorum (Poaceae), in Colorado, grown on Fusarium (Hypocreaceae) fungus culture, and identified as Paraphelenchus acontioides. Morphometrics and micrographic morphology of this species are given to supplement the original description and expand the comparative species diagnosis. A tabular morphometric compendium of the females of the 23 species of Paraphelenchus is provided as the last diagnostic compilation was in 1984. Variations in the oviduct within the genus are reviewed to evaluate the taxonomic assignment of P. deckeri, a morphologically transitional species between Aphelenchus and Paraphelenchus. Sequences were generated for both 18S and 28S ribosomal DNA, representing the first identified species within Paraphelenchus so characterised. These sequences were incorporated into phylogenetic trees with related species of Aphelenchidae and Tylenchidae. Aphelenchus avenae isolates formed a well supported monophyletic sister group to Paraphelenchus. The ecology of Paraphelenchus, cheat grass and Fusarium is also discussed.

AB In this study the effect of heat treatment on some physical properties of Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) was investigated. Wood specimens were subjected to heat treatment at 160, 180, 200 and 220 degrees C for 1, 2, 3 and 4h. The results show that heat treatment resulted in a darkened color, decreased moisture performance and increased dimensional stability of wood. Compared with untreated wood, equilibrium moisture content (EMC), water absorption (WA) and volume swelling (VS) for treated wood decrease up to 42.63%, 34.93% and 67.47%. The higher the treatment temperature and the longer the treatment time, the lower EMC, WA and VS. The VS of treated specimens has a more significant reduction than EMC and WA when the heat treatment temperature is above 180 degrees C. The visual color changes were more distinct after heat treatment above 180 degrees C. Temperature has a greater influence than time on these properties of specimens.

AB Restoring longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) over much of its original range requires artificial regeneration. In central Louisiana, USA, two fertilization levels-No (NF) or Yes (F-36 kg/ha N and 40 kg/ha P) in combination with three vegetation treatments-Check, four prescribed fires (PF), or multi-year vegetation control by herbicidal and mechanical means (IVM) were applied to container-grown longleaf pine plantings in a grass savanna. After 10 years, P concentration in longleaf pine foliage was less on NF plots than F plots, but fertilization did not significantly affect tree stature. Survival was greater on NF plots than F plots, and so, NF plots were more productive (NF-63 m(3)/ha and F-45 m(3)/ha). Pine trees on IVM plots (37 dm(3)/tree) were significantly larger than on Check and PF plots, which averaged 17 dm(3)/tree. Survival was better on IVM plots (88%) than PF plots (78%), which was better than Checks (58%). Consequently, IVM plots were most productive (99 m(3)/ha), followed by PF plots (44 m(3)/ha), and lastly Checks (28 m(3)/ha). PF plots had greater grass cover (38%) than Check and IVM plots, which averaged 5%, whereas PF and IVM plots had less understory arborescent cover (an average of 25%) than Checks (91%). A wildfire in March 2007 reduced pine survival by 22, 14, and 1 percentage points on IVM, Check, and PF plots, respectively. Seven months later, longleaf pine production had decreased to 92 m(3)/ha on IVM plots while increasing to 55 m(3)/ha on PF plots and 30 m(3)/ha on Checks. Overall, the wildfire rejuvenated the herbaceous plant community. Grass cover on Check and IVM plots averaged 20% while grass cover on PF plots was 36%. Forb cover increased on all treatments from 2% before the wildfire to 13% seven months after the wildfire. Understory arborescent cover decreased on Checks to 62% but increased slightly on PF and IVM plots and averaged 30%.

AB Selenium (Se) hyperaccumulation has a profound effect on plant-arthropod interactions. Here, we investigated floral Se distribution and speciation in flowers and the effects of floral Se on pollen quality and plant-pollinator interactions.
   Floral Se distribution and speciation were compared in Stanleya pinnata, an Se hyperaccumulator, and Brassica juncea, a comparable nonhyperaccumulator. Pollen germination was measured from plants grown with varying concentrations of Se and floral visitation was compared between plants with high and low Se.
   Stanleya pinnata preferentially allocated Se to flowers, as nontoxic methylselenocysteine (MeSeCys). Brassica juncea had higher Se concentrations in leaves than flowers, and a lower fraction of MeSeCys. For B. juncea, high floral Se concentration impaired pollen germination; in S. pinnata Se had no effect on pollen germination. Floral visitors collected from Se-rich S. pinnata contained up to 270 mu g g(-1), concentrations toxic to many herbivores. Indeed, floral visitors showed no visitation preference between high-and low-Se plants. Honey from seleniferous areas contained 0.4-1 mu g Se g(-1), concentrations that could provide human health benefits.
   This study is the first to shed light on the possible evolutionary cost, through decreased pollen germination in B. juncea, of Se accumulation and has implications for the management of seleniferous areas.

AB It is now a decade since Brachypodium distachyon (Brachypodium) was suggested as a model species for temperate grasses and cereals. Since then transformation protocols, large expressed sequence tag (EST) databases, tools for forward and reverse genetic screens, highly refined cytogenetic probes, germplasm collections and, recently, a complete genome sequence have been generated. In this review, we will describe the current status of the Brachypodium Tool Box and how it is beginning to be applied to study a range of biological traits. Further, as genomic analysis of larger cereals and forage grasses genomes are becoming easier, we will re-evaluate Brachypodium as a model species. We suggest that there remains an urgent need to employ reverse genetic and functional genomic approaches to identify the functionality of key genetic elements, which could be employed subsequently in plant breeding programmes; and a requirement for a Pooideae reference genome to aid assembling large pooid genomes. Brachypodium is an ideal system for functional genomic studies, because of its easy growth requirements, small physical stature, and rapid life cycle, coupled with the resources offered by the Brachypodium Tool Box.

AB Many challenges face plant scientists, in particular those working on crop production, such as a projected increase in population, decrease in water and arable land, changes in weather patterns and predictability. Advances in genome sequencing and resequencing can and should play a role in our response to meeting these challenges. However, several barriers prevent rapid and effective deployment of these tools to a wide variety of crops. Because of the complexity of crop genomes, de novo sequencing with next-generation sequencing technologies is a process fraught with difficulties that then create roadblocks to the utilization of these genome sequences for crop improvement. Collecting rapid and accurate phenotypes in crop plants is a hindrance to integrating genomics with crop improvement, and advances in informatics are needed to put these tools in the hands of the scientists on the ground.

AB Connections between xylem vessels represent important links in the vascular network, but the complexity of three-dimensional (3D) organization has been difficult to access.
   This study describes the development of a custom software package called TANAX (Tomography-derived Automated Network Analysis of Xylem) that automatically extracts vessel dimensions and the distribution of intervessel connections from high-resolution computed tomography scans of grapevine (Vitis vinifera) stems, although the method could be applied to other species.
   Manual and automated analyses of vessel networks yielded similar results, with the automated method generating orders of magnitude more data in a fraction of the time. In 4.5-mm-long internode sections, all vessels and all intervessel connections among 115 vessels were located, and the connections were analyzed for their radial distribution, orientation, and predicted shared wall area. Intervessel connections were more frequent in lateral than in dorsal/ventral zones.
   The TANAX-reconstructed network, in combination with commercial software, was used to visualize vessel networks in 3D. The 3D volume renderings of vessel networks were freely rotated for observation from any angle, and the 4.5 mu m virtual serial sections were capable of being viewed in any plane, revealing aspects of vessel organization not possible with traditional serial sections.

AB P>Following the decades-long warming and drying trend in Alaska, there is mounting evidence that temperature-induced drought stress is associated with disease outbreaks in the boreal forest. Recent evidence of this trend is an outbreak of Cytospora canker disease (fungal pathogen Valsa melanodiscus (anamorph = Cytospora umbrina)) on Alnus species.
   For Alnus fruticosa, we examined the effects of water stress on disease predisposition, and the effects of disease and water stress on host physiology. In two trials, we conducted a full-factorial experiment that crossed two levels of water stress with three types of inoculum (two isolates of V. melanodiscus, one control isolate).
   Water stress was not required for disease predisposition. However, the effects of water stress and disease on host physiology were greatest near the peak phenological stage of the host and during hot, dry conditions. During this time, water stress and disease reduced light-saturated photosynthesis (-30%), light saturation point (-60%) and stomatal conductance (-40%).
   Our results depended on the timing of water stress and disease in relation to host phenology and the environment. These factors should not be overlooked in attempts to generalize predictions about the role of temperature-induced drought stress in this pathosystem.

AB Reduced lignin content in perennial crops has been sought as a means to improve biomass processability for paper and biofuels production, but it is unclear how this could affect wood properties and tree form.
   Here, we studied a nontransgenic control and 14 transgenic events containing an antisense 4-coumarate: coenzyme A ligase (4CL) to discern the consequences of lignin reduction in poplar (Populus sp.). During the second year of growth, trees were grown either free-standing in a field trial or affixed to stakes in a glasshouse.
   Reductions in lignin of up to 40% gave comparable losses in wood strength and stiffness. This occurred despite the fact that low-lignin trees had a similar wood density and up to three-fold more tension wood. In free-standing and staked trees, the control line had twice the height for a given diameter as did low-lignin trees. Staked trees had twice the height for a given diameter as free-standing trees in the field, but did not differ in wood stiffness.
   Variation in tree morphogenesis appears to be governed by lignin x environment interactions mediated by stresses exerted on developing cells. Therefore our results underline the importance of field studies for assessing the performance of transgenic trees with modified wood properties.

ID RESISTANCE; DISEASES; EPIDEMIOLOGY; ONTARIO
AB White mould caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is one of the most damaging diseases of bean worldwide. High incidence of white mould can lead to complete crop loss through rejection by processors. Since 2004, in Australia, white mould is managed by the prophylactic application of the fungicide, boscalid during flowering. The sensitivity of S. sclerotiorum isolates (n = 150) was tested using a mycelial growth assay. The effective concentration of boscalid required to reduce mycelial growth by 50% (EC(50)) was calculated using probit analysis. The frequency distribution of EC(50) values was unimodal and similar to that of 11 non-exposed isolates collected from other crops or obtained from culture collections. No evidence of resistance or reduced sensitivity was found within the tested S. sclerotiorum population from Australian bean fields.

AB AIM: To compare vasoconstriction of the auricular artery and characteristics of blood flow in the carotid arteries between lambs grazing perennial ryegrass that was either infected with the AR6 novel endophyte (AR6), wild-type endophyte or endophyte-free.
   METHODS: Sixteen Coopworth lambs, mean 23.7 (SD 1.8) kg, were randomly assigned to graze three, 0.10-ha pastures of perennial ryegrass (cultivar Extreme) located in Lincoln, New Zealand, that were infected with either the AR6 novel endophyte (n=5) or wild-type endophyte (n=6) or were endophyte-free (n=5), for 18 days until 16 March 2009. Lambs on AR6 pasture were then switched to endophyte-free pasture, and those on endophyte-free were switched to AR6 pasture, for 18 days. Lambs continued grazing the wild-type ryegrass during both phases of the study. Colour Doppler ultrasonography was used to monitor cross-sectional area of lumina in the auricular and carotid arteries as measurements of vasoconstriction, and to measure pulsatility indices, heart rate, systolic and diastolic velocities, and mean velocity in the carotid artery. Urine was sampled once during each phase, to measure the concentration of urinary alkaloids. A heat challenge (32 degrees C) was imposed on the last day of the experiment, to determine treatment effects on rectal temperature and respiration rate.
   RESULTS: Vasoconstriction was detected in the auricular arteries of lambs grazing AR6 and wild-type pastures. Areas of lumina declined linearly over 9 days in lambs that were switched from endophyte-free to AR6 pastures (p<0.05), and areas increased linearly in lambs that were switched from AR6 to endophyte-free pasture (p<0.001). Resistance to blood flow in the carotid arteries decreased linearly in the 9 days after lambs were switched from AR6 to endophyte-free pasture( p<0.05), and tended to increase after lambs on endophyte-free pasture were switched to AR6 (p<0.10). The concentrations of urinary alkaloids decreased after switching lambs from AR6 to endophyte-free pasture, and increased after switching from endophyte-free to AR6 pasture (p<0.05). The concentrations of urinary alkaloids of lambs on wild-type pasture were similar between the conditioning and experimental phases. There were no treatment effects on rectal temperature and respiration rate during the heat challenge.
   CONCLUSIONS: These results indicated that management approaches are needed to overcome potential vulnerabilities to heat stress for sheep grazing AR6 perennial ryegrass. Furthermore, following grazing such pasture, lambs will need to graze endophyte-free ryegrass for 418 days, to completely clear ergot alkaloids from their vasculature, assuming that complete clearance can be achieved.

AB In recent years there has been an increasing research emphasis on complex macromolecular systems. These include polymers with precise control of structures, multicomponent systems with higher degrees of organization, polymers involved in micelles, interfaces, and confined environments, nanochemistry and nanostructures, biopolymers and bio-inspired chemistry, and application-driven polymer designs, such as fuel cells, batteries, and ionic conductors; sensors and information processors; drug delivery, biomedical devices, and imaging; stimulus-responsive polymers, gels, and networks with defined function and control. Successful NMR studies of these polymers require judicious applications of existing techniques and development of new or improved strategies and methodologies. In this article the polymer/NMR literature in 2007-2011 is reviewed in view of the recent trends in polymer research, with selected examples taken from the literature and from the chapters included in this book.

AB Statistical models can be used in conjunction with NMR spectroscopy to study polymer microstructure and polymerization mechanisms. Thus, Bernoullian, Markovian, and enantiomorphic-site models are well known. Many additional models have been formulated over the years for additional situations. Typically spectral interpretation and data treatment can be done through either "analytical" or "simulation" approaches. These can be combined into "integrated" approaches for specific situations. An alternative (and more general) approach considers the kinetics of the polymerization process and carries out predictions of polymer microstructures and NMR spectra. These various methodologies are briefly reviewed here. Also reviewed is a recent effort in the simulation category involving a user-friendly Excel program ("Polytact") that can simulate the tacticities of a large number of statistical models, particularly those that pertain to polyolefins made with single-site catalysts.

TI Use of Corn Gluten Feed and Cottonseed Meal to Replace Soybean Meal and
   Corn in Diets for Pond-Raised Channel Catfish
SO NORTH AMERICAN JOURNAL OF AQUACULTURE
LA English
DT Article
ID ICTALURUS-PUNCTATUS; GROWTH
AB The prices of soybean meal and cornthe two most commonly used, traditional feed ingredients in channel catfish dietshave increased dramatically in recent years. Using less-expensive alternative feed ingredients to partially replace soybean meal and corn would reduce feed cost. The present study evaluated the use of corn gluten feed and cottonseed meal, two promising alternative feedstuffs, as replacements for soybean meal and corn in diets for pond-raised channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus. Five isonitrogenous (28% crude protein) diets that used corn gluten feed and cottonseed meal (approximately 1:1 ratio) to replace 0, 25, 50, 75, or 100% of the soybean meal in the control diet were evaluated. The level of corn in the diet decreased as those of corn gluten feed and cottonseed meal increased. Stocker-size channel catfish (mean initial weight = 0.175 kg/fish) were stocked into twenty 0.05-ha earthen ponds at a rate of 14,830 fish/ha. Fish were fed once daily to apparent satiation over a growing season. Net yield, carcass and fillet yield, and fillet protein and fat levels decreased and the feed conversion ratio increased linearly as soybean meal replacement levels increased. These results demonstrate that a maximum of 50% of the soybean meal in channel catfish diets may be replaced (soybean meal was reduced from 51.4% to 25.7%) by a combination of corn gluten feed and cottonseed meal (up to 20% of each in the diet) without markedly affecting the physical quality of feed pellets, fish growth, processed yield, and body composition. The poor performance of diets containing high levels of corn gluten feed and cottonseed meal are probably a result of high fiber, low digestible energy, or both.

AB Short-term storage trials were conducted with semen of Atlantic sturgeon Acipenser oxyrinchus collected from a total of nine wild males during the 2008 and 2009 spawning seasons on the Hudson River. Semen samples were kept refrigerated (4 +/- 1 degrees C) and stored in different gaseous atmospheres and storage extenders. The gaseous environments included oxygen, nitrogen, and air, while the extender treatments included modified Tsvetkova (MT), Park and Chapman (PC), and undiluted. Analyses of four response variables-percent viable sperm (viability), percentmotile sperm (motility), curvilinear velocity (VCL), and ATP content-were determined on the day of arrival in the laboratory and then every other day for 7 d in 2008 and 21 d in 2009. The experiments were conducted in a split-split-plot design to examine dilution treatment, gas atmosphere, and repeated measures across days, and linear analyses of covariance models were fit to the data after appropriate transformation. Storage of sperm in an oxygen atmosphere was superior to storage in a nitrogen atmosphere for all variables. Storage of semen in 100% or 21% (air) oxygen in PC did not lead to differences among variables except for viability; viability was maintained at more than 95% through 13 d, decreasing to 88% and 94% on day 21 in 100% oxygen and air, respectively. During the last 5 d survival in an air atmosphere was better than that in 100% oxygen. Motility decreased during the 21 d of storage and the decline was greater in undiluted than in PC-extended semen, decreasing from 85% on day 1 to approximately 21% and 47%, respectively, on day 21. We conclude that for Atlantic sturgeon semen storage, PC is the extender of choice and semen viability can be maintained for up to 21 d with some expectation of successful fertilization.

AB Most of fruit species are propagated by vegetative methods such as budding, grafting, cutting, suckering, layering etc. to avoid heterozygocity. Carob trees (Ceratonia siliqua L.) are of highly economical value and are among the most difficult to propagate fruit species. In the study, air-layering propagation method was investigated first rinse to compare. wild and cultivated ('Sisam') carob types. In the experiment, one year old carob limbs were air-layered on coco peat medium by wrapping with aluminum foil and polyethylene film. Initial roots were observed after three months of treatment and the well rooted limbs were cur-off after six months of treatment. Root length, diameter, and the number of roots were recorded on treated shoots and the rooted shoots Were transferred into soil. As a result, it has been found that air-layering is successful in carob. This method is more labor intensive and thus iris recommend the method only for genetically important carob types propagation.

AB The fungal genus Fusarium includes many plant and/or animal pathogenic species and produces diverse toxins. Although accurate species identification is critical for managing such threats, it is difficult to identify Fusarium morphologically. Fortunately, extensive molecular phylogenetic studies, founded on well-preserved culture collections, have established a robust foundation for Fusarium classification. Genomes of four Fusarium species have been published with more being currently sequenced. The Cyber infrastructure for Fusarium (CiF; http://www.fusariumdb.org/) was built to support archiving and utilization of rapidly increasing data and knowledge and consists of Fusarium-ID, Fusarium Comparative Genomics Platform (FCGP) and Fusarium Community Platform (FCP). The Fusarium-ID archives phylogenetic marker sequences from most known species along with information associated with characterized isolates and supports strain identification and phylogenetic analyses. The FCGP currently archives five genomes from four species. Besides supporting genome browsing and analysis, the FCGP presents computed characteristics of multiple gene families and functional groups. The Cart/Favorite function allows users to collect sequences from Fusarium-ID and the FCGP and analyze them later using multiple tools without requiring repeated copying-and-pasting of sequences.

AB Now in its 10th year, the Gramene database (http://www.gramene.org) has grown from its primary focus on rice, the first fully-sequenced grass genome, to become a resource for major model and crop plants including Arabidopsis, Brachypodium, maize, sorghum, poplar and grape in addition to several species of rice. Gramene began with the addition of an Ensembl genome browser and has expanded in the last decade to become a robust resource for plant genomics hosting a wide array of data sets including quantitative trait loci (QTL), metabolic pathways, genetic diversity, genes, proteins, germplasm, literature, ontologies and a fully-structured markers and sequences database integrated with genome browsers and maps from various published studies (genetic, physical, bin, etc.). In addition, Gramene now hosts a variety of web services including a Distributed Annotation Server (DAS), BLAST and a public MySQL database. Twice a year, Gramene releases a major build of the database and makes interim releases to correct errors or to make important updates to software and/or data.

AB Sulforaphane (SFN) is a naturally occurring chemopreventive agent; the induction of cell cycle arrest and apoptosis is a key mechanism by which SFN exerts its colon cancer prevention. However, little is known about the differential effects of SFN on colon cancer and normal cells. In this study, we demonstrated that SFN (15 mol/L) exposure (72 h) inhibited cell proliferation by up to 95% in colon cancer cells (HCT116) and by 52% in normal colon mucosa-derived (NCM460) cells. Our data also showed that SFN exposure (5 and 10 mol/L) led to the reduction of G1 phase cell distribution and an induction of apoptosis in HCT116 cells, but to a much lesser extent in NCM460 cells. Furthermore, the examination of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling status revealed that SFN upregulated the phosphorylation of extracellular-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) in NCM460 cells but not in HCT116 cells. In contrast, SFN enhanced the phosphorylation of stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK) and decreased cellular myelocytomatosis oncogene (c-Myc) expression in HCT116 cells but not NCM460 cells. Taken together, the activation of survival signaling in NCM460 cells and apoptotic signaling in HCT116 cells may play a critical role in SFN's stronger potential of inhibiting cell proliferation in colon cancer cells than in normal colon cells.

AB Background and aims: Previous evidence suggests that dietary fat could influence the composition and size of triacylglycerols-rich lipoproteins (TRL). In a controlled intervention study on healthy subjects, we evaluated the influence of 3 dietary interventions, with different types of fat on postprandial TRL particle size and number.
   Methods and results: Volunteers followed three different diets for four weeks each, according to a randomized crossover design. Western diet: 15% protein, 47% carbohydrates (CHO), 38% fat (22% saturated fatty acid (SFA)); Mediterranean diet: 15% protein, 47% CHO, 38% fat (24% monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA)); high CHO enriched with ALNA diet: 15% protein, 55% CHO, <30% fat (8% polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)). After a 12-h fast, volunteers consumed a breakfast with 1 g fat and 7 mg cholesterol per kg body weight and a fat composition similar to that consumed in each of the diets: Butter meal: 35% SFA; Olive oil meal: 36% MUFA; Walnut meal: 16% PUFA, 4% alpha-linolenic acid. Tryglicerides (TG) in TRL (large and small TRL) were determined by ultracentrifugation and size and number of lipoprotein particles were measured with Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy at different time points. The olive oil meal reduced the number of total TRL postprandial particles compared with the other meals (P = 0.002). Moreover, the olive oil meal also increased the TRL particle size compared with the walnut meal (P = 0.001).
   Conclusion: Our data showed that short-term intake of the Mediterranean diet and the acute intake of an olive oil meal lead to the formation of a reduced number and higher-size TRL particle compared with other fat sources. These novel findings have implications for understanding the postprandial lipoprotein mechanisms, and could favour the lower cardiovascular risk in Mediterranean countries. (C) 2009 Elsevier B. V.

AB It is not clear if tree canopies in savanna ecosystems exert positive or negative effects on soil moisture, and how these might affect understory plant carbon balance. To address this, we quantified rooting-zone volumetric soil moisture (theta(25 cm)), plant size, leaf-level and whole-plant gas exchange of the bunchgrass, bush muhly (Muhlenbergia porteri), growing under and between mesquite (Prosopis velutina) in a southwestern US savanna. Across two contrasting monsoon seasons, bare soil theta(25 cm) was 1.0-2.5% lower in understory than in the intercanopy, and was consistently higher than in soils under grasses, where theta(25 cm) was similar between locations. Understory plants had smaller canopy areas and volumes with larger basal diameters than intercanopy plants. During an above-average monsoon, intercanopy and understory plants had similar seasonal light-saturated leaf-level photosynthesis (A (net-sat)), stomatal conductance (g (s-sat)), and whole-plant aboveground respiration (R (auto)), but with higher whole-plant photosynthesis (GEP(plant)) and transpiration (T (plant)) in intercanopy plants. During a below-average monsoon, intercanopy plants had higher diurnally integrated GEP(plant), R (auto), and T (plant). These findings showed little evidence of strong, direct positive canopy effects to soil moisture and attendant plant performance. Rather, it seems understory conditions foster competitive dominance by drought-tolerant species, and that positive and negative canopy effects on soil moisture and community and ecosystem processes depends on a suite of interacting biotic and abiotic factors.

   CLIMATE-CHANGE; JUVENILE FISH; CARIBBEAN BAY
AB Ecosystems are intricately linked by the flow of organisms across their boundaries, and such connectivity can be essential to the structure and function of the linked ecosystems. For example, many coral reef fish populations are maintained by the movement of individuals from spatially segregated juvenile habitats (i.e., nurseries, such as mangroves and seagrass beds) to areas preferred by adults. It is presumed that nursery habitats provide for faster growth (higher food availability) and/or low predation risk for juveniles, but empirical data supporting this hypothesis is surprisingly lacking for coral reef fishes. Here, we investigate potential mechanisms (growth, predation risk, and reproductive investment) that give rise to the distribution patterns of a common Caribbean reef fish species, Haemulon flavolineatum (French grunt). Adults were primarily found on coral reefs, whereas juvenile fish only occurred in non-reef habitats. Contrary to our initial expectations, analysis of length-at-age revealed that growth rates were highest on coral reefs and not within nursery habitats. Survival rates in tethering trials were 0% for small juvenile fish transplanted to coral reefs and 24-47% in the nurseries. As fish grew, survival rates on coral reefs approached those in non-reef habitats (56 vs. 77-100%, respectively). As such, predation seems to be the primary factor driving across-ecosystem distributions of this fish, and thus the primary reason why mangrove and seagrass habitats function as nursery habitat. Identifying the mechanisms that lead to such distributions is critical to develop appropriate conservation initiatives, identify essential fish habitat, and predict impacts associated with environmental change.

AB Although food abundance is a principal determinant of distribution and abundance of many animals, most previous studies have not quantitatively assessed its importance relative to other factors that may also determine species distributions. We estimated frugivorous phainopepla Phainopepla nitens occupancy and density, food density, and vegetation structure on transects in fragmented mesquite and acacia woodlands over three years in non-breeding and breeding seasons. Using an AIC framework and controlling for detection probability, we determined relative impacts of food abundance, vegetation structure, and habitat fragmentation on patch occupancy and density, and concomitant extinction and colonization probabilities of phainopeplas. Initial occupancy in winter 2002 was high (0.87 +/- 0.047), and primarily positively correlated with food abundance and woodland area (Akaike weights w(i) = 0.998 and 0.750 respectively). Woodland area more strongly influenced occupancy where food was scarcer. Phainopepla density in both seasons was strongly positively correlated with food abundance, especially in the 2002 drought when density was higher (w(i) =1.0 for food and year). Density was higher in acacia than mesquite woodlands (w(i) = 1.0), and moderately negatively correlated with elevation (w(i) = 0.789). Extinction probability (patches vacated) was low (0.078 +/- 0.040), and principally influenced by phainopepla density (w(i) = 0.968) and tree height (w(i) = 0.749). Colonization probability was low (0.15 +/- 0.034) and determined by vegetation structure (w(i) = 1.0). Much recorded colonization was reoccupancy of woodlands previously occupied by single males in winter, then vacated in a breeding season. These results suggest that for an animal occupying a highly fragmented landscape, distributions and densities at the habitat patch scale are driven by food abundance, are moderately affected by habitat fragmentation, and are slightly influenced by vegetation structure.

AB Structural abnormalities in brain microvasculature are commonly associated with Alzheimer's Disease and other dementias. However, the extent to which structural microvascular abnormalities cause functional impairments in brain circulation and thereby to cognitive impairment is unclear. Non-invasive, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) methods can be used to determine the absolute hemoglobin concentration and saturation in brain tissue, from which additional parameters such as cerebral blood volume (a theoretical correlate of brain microvascular density) can be derived. Validating such NIRS parameters in animal models, and understanding their relationship to cognitive function is an important step in the ultimate application of these methods to humans. To this end we applied a non-invasive multi-distance NIRS method to determine the absolute concentration and saturation of cerebral hemoglobin in rat, by separately measuring absorption and reduced scattering coefficients without relying on pre- or post-correction factors. We applied this method to study brain circulation in folate deficient rats, which express brain microvascular pathology(1) and which we have shown to develop cognitive impairment.(2) We found absolute brain hemoglobin concentration ([HbT]) and oxygen saturation (StO(2)) to be significantly lower in folate deficient rats (n=6) with respect to control rats (n=5) (for [HbT]: 73 +/- 10 mu M vs. 95 +/- 14 mu M; for StO(2): 55%+/- 7% vs. 66%+/- 4%), implicating microvascular pathology and diminished oxygen delivery as a mechanism of cognitive impairment. More generally, our study highlights how non-invasive, absolute NIRS measurements can provide unique insight into the pathophysiology of Vascular Cognitive Impairment. Applying this method to this and other rat models of cognitive impairment will help to validate physiologically meaningful NIRS parameters for the ultimate goal of studying cerebral microvascular disease and cognitive decline in humans.

AB Green tea polyphenols (GTP) are promising agents for preventing bone loss. GTP supplementation sustained microarchitecture and improved bone quality via a decrease in inflammation. Findings suggest a significant role for GTP in skeletal health of patients with chronic inflammation.
   This study evaluated whether GTP can restore bone microstructure along with a molecular mechanism in rats with chronic inflammation. A 2 [placebo vs. lipopolysaccharide (LPS)]x 2 [no GTP vs. 0.5% GTP (w/v) in drinking water] factorial design was employed.
   Female rats were assigned to four groups: placebo, LPS, placebo + GTP, and LPS + GTP for 12 weeks. Efficacy was evaluated by examining changes in bone microarchitecture using histomorphometric and microcomputed tomographic analyses and by bone strength using the three-point bending test. A possible mechanism was studied by assessing the difference in tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) expression in tibia using immunohistochemistry.
   LPS lowered trabecular volume fraction, thickness, and bone formation in proximal tibia while increasing osteoclast number and surface perimeter in proximal tibia and eroded surface in endocortical tibial shafts. GTP increased trabecular volume fraction and number in both femur and tibia and periosteal bone formation rate in tibial shafts while decreasing trabecular separation in proximal tibia and eroded surface in endocortical tibial shafts. There was an interaction between LPS and GTP in trabecular number, separation, bone formation, and osteoclast number in proximal tibia, and trabecular thickness and number in femur. GTP improved the strength of femur, while suppressing TNF-alpha expression in tibia.
   In conclusion, GTP supplementation mitigated deterioration of bone microarchitecture and improved bone integrity in rats with chronic inflammation by suppressing bone erosion and modulating cancellous and endocortical bone compartments, resulting in a larger net bone volume. Such a protective role of GTP may be due to a suppression of TNF-alpha.

AB Association between dietary protein and fracture risk is unclear. We examined association between energy-adjusted protein intake and hip fracture risk in elders. The risk of hip fracture was reduced in upper quartiles of protein intake when compared with lowest quartile.
   Studies of the association between dietary protein intake and hip fracture risk are conflicting. Therefore, we examined protein intake and hip fracture risk in a population-based group of elderly men and women.
   Five hundred seventy-six women and 370 men from the Framingham Osteoporosis Study with no previous history of hip fracture completed Food Frequency Questionnaires. Energy-adjusted protein intake was evaluated as a continuous variable and as quartiles. Incidence rates and hazard ratios were calculated, adjusting for age, BMI, sex, and energy intake.
   Among 946 participants (mean age 75 years), mean protein intake was found to be 68 gm/d. Increased protein intake was associated with a decreased risk of hip fracture compared to those in the lowest quartile of protein intake (Q2 HR = 0.70, Q3 HR = 0.56, and Q4 HR = 0.63; all p values a parts per thousand yenaEuro parts per thousand 0.044), p for trend was 0.07. When a threshold effect was considered (Q2-4 vs Q1), intakes in the higher quartiles combined were associated with a significantly lower risk for hip fracture (HR = 0.63; p = 0.04).
   Our results are consistent with reduced risk of hip fracture with higher dietary protein intake. Larger prospective studies are needed to confirm and extend this finding in elderly men and women.

AB Antioxidant potential of four lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) varieties indigenous to Pakistan, Masoor 85, Masoor 93, NIAB Masoor 2002, and NIAB Masoor 2006, was evaluated. The contents of squalene, tocopherols, and phystosterols in lentil seeds were in line with literature data. All extracts from studied varieties exhibited appreciable contents of phenolic compounds (6.87-7.93 mg gallic acid equivalents/g), flavonoids (4.13-4.43 mg catechin equivalent/g) and condensed tannins (8.70-9.01 mg catechin equivalent/g). In addition antioxidant activities of the lentil extracts were tested using DPPH (18.97-19.33 gmol Trolox/g), FRAP (12.85-13.13 mmol Fe2+-equivalents/100 g) and ORAC (94.97-95.17 mu mol Trolox/g) assays. The RP-HPLC chromatograms of the lentil extracts characterised by the presence of 6 dominant peaks. One of the compounds was identified as gallic acid. The results of the present study showed that lentil, indigenous to Pakistan, is potentially valuable legume crop with high antioxidant potential.

AB Bait stations with toxic baits are an emerging technology for eradication of the invasive brown tree snake (Boiga irregularis) on Guam, yet potential interferences by nontarget species are largely unknown. We tested the efficacies of three bait station designs together with three commonly used station support structures to exclude nonnative rats (roof rat, Rattus rattus; Norway rat, Rattus norvegicus; Polynesian rat, Rattus exulans) and native coconut crabs (Birgus latro). When directly presented, all species readily consumed the dead neonatal mouse baits (nontoxic) including those replicating decomposing baits in the field. When bait stations were made easily accessible by placement near ground level, all rat species were able to enter all station types, but some individual roof rats and Norway rats exhibited apparent neophobia. When stations were placed up on support structures, simulating those in the field (similar to 1 in above ground level), numbers of station accessions by roof rats and Norway rats remained essentially unchanged, but Polynesian rats then showed almost no inclination to enter stations. However, ability to access entrances of stations (but not interiors) when on support structures was extremely high for roof rats and appreciable for the other rat species, including Polynesians. The station type currently in widest use, when placed on chain-link cyclone fence, had the highest probability of accession. Crabs readily accessed station entrances but never interiors. The two downward-angled station designs, when placed in simulated vegetation, had the lowest probabilities of accession. In areas where nontarget species are a concern, we recommend use of either of the downward-angled station designs and suspension from vegetation wherever possible.

AB P>The spleen is a critical organ in defence against haemoparasitic diseases like babesiosis. Many in vitro and ex vivo studies have identified splenic cells working in concert to activate mechanisms required for successful resolution of infection. The techniques used in those studies, however, remove cells from the anatomical context in which cell interaction and trafficking take place. In this study, an immunohistological approach was used to monitor the splenic distribution of defined cells during the acute response of naive calves to Babesia bovis infection. Splenomegaly was characterized by disproportionate hyperplasia of large versus small leucocytes and altered distribution of several cell types thought to be important in mounting an effective immune response. In particular, the results suggest that the initial crosstalk between NK cells and immature dendritic cells occurs within the marginal zone and that immature dendritic cells are first redirected to encounter pathogens as they enter the spleen and then mature as they process antigen and migrate to T-cell-rich areas. The results of this study are remarkably similar to those observed in a mouse model of malarial infection, suggesting these dynamic events may be central to the acute response of naive animals to haemoparasitic infection.

TI Babesia bovis expresses Bbo-6cys-E, a member of a novel gene family that

AB A novel Babesia bovis gene family encoding proteins with similarities to the Plasmodium 6cys protein family was identified by TBLASTN searches of the B. bovis genome using the sequence of the P. falciparum PFS230 protein as query, and was termed Bbo-6cys gene family. The Bbo-cys6 gene family contains six genes termed Bbo-6cys-A, B,C, D, E and F encoding for proteins containing an arrangement of 6 cysteine residues. The Bbo-6cys genes A, B, C, D, and E are tandemly arranged as a cluster of Chromosome 2 in the B. bovis genome, whereas gene F is located in a distal region in the same chromosome. The Bbo-6cys-E gene, with higher homology to PFS230, was selected for further examination. Immunoblot analysis using recombinant Bbo-6cys-E protein and B. bovis-positive bovine serum demonstrated expression by the parasite and immunogenicity during B. bovis infection. Immunofluorescence analysis using anti-Bbo-6cys-E antibodies confirmed expression of Bbo-6cys-E in in vitro blood stages of B. bovis. In addition, polyclonal antisera against both recombinant Bbo-6cys-E and specific synthetic peptides containing predicted B-cell epitopes of Bbo-6cys-E, significantly inhibited erythrocyte invasion by B. bovis in in vitro neutralization assays, suggesting an important functional role for this protein. Identification of this new gene family in B. bovis and further investigation on its biological significance may aid our understanding of the bovine, tick and parasite relationships and the development of improved control methods against B. bovis infection in cattle.

AB Because leaf litter occurs at the interface between the soil and atmosphere, the invertebrates inhabiting it represent important linkages between above- and below-ground food webs. The responses of these organisms to forest disturbance brought about by invasive species should therefore have far-reaching ecological effects. The purpose of this study was to explore how canopy gap formation (gap fraction 1-10%) and fallen ash trees ("logs") resulting from extensive (>99%) ash tree mortality caused by the invasive emerald ash borer (EAB) affect the distributions of litter-dwelling arthropods and earthworms. These organisms did not vary in abundance across the gap fraction range studied but, as predicted from the literature, many taxa (e.g., Aranea, Coleoptera, Collembola, Diplopoda, Isopoda, Opiliones and exotic earthworms) were more abundant next to logs than away from them. Contrary to expectations, arthropods did not become more concentrated next to logs as canopy openness increased, with isopods exhibiting the opposite response. These results suggest litter-dwelling arthropods in EAB-infested forests are favored by inputs of ash wood to the forest floor but are largely unaffected by increases in canopy openness, at least across the gap fraction range studied.

AB Many exotic species have been introduced or have escaped into grasslands where they form 'novel ecosystems' of species with no evolutionary history of interaction. Novel ecosystems are good model systems for understanding how diversity maintenance mechanisms might differ between species with a history of interaction (natives) and species without a history (exotics) in cases where exotics originated from several continents. We tested for lower species diversity and richness in exotic grasslands and found a negative correlation between species diversity measures and proportion of exotic species across 15 grasslands in an observational study in Texas. We then planted 9-species mixtures of all native or all exotics under ambient or elevated summer precipitation to compare dynamics of diversity and to test if exotic species respond more strongly to altered resource availability. Species diversity was lower in communities of exotic than native species by the second year. Reduced diversity in exotic communities resulted from lower complementarity and higher temporal niche overlap among species and occurred in both ambient and irrigated plots. In general, summer irrigation had additive positive effects and did not interact with native exotic status. Exotic species and communities had much earlier green-up during spring than natives, and altered inter-correlations among phenology variables. There were no differences in flowering dates. Taken together, our results suggest that rapid and synchronous growth may increase niche overlap among exotic species and reduce local diversity in exotic-dominated grassland communities. Earlier green-up by exotics may complicate attempts to ascertain relationships between phenology and climate. An increase in exotic species may cause earlier green-up regardless of any climate change effects and our results suggest that phenology networks should take a species-based rather than an ecosystem approach to evaluate green-up if the abundance of exotics increases within the time-frame in question. These differences between native and exotic species and communities should be considered in future management and restoration projects. (C) 2011 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.

AB The objective of this work was to evaluate the aggregate stability of tropical soils under eucalyptus plantation and native vegetation, and assess the relationships between aggregate stability and some soil chemical and physical properties. Argisols, Cambisol, Latosols and Plinthosol within three eucalyptus-cultivated regions, in the states of Espirito Santo, Rio Grande do Sul and Minas Gerais, Brazil, were studied. For each region, soils under native vegetation were compared to those under minimum tillage with eucalyptus cultivation. The aggregate stability was measured using the high-energy moisture characteristic (HEMC) technique, i.e., the moisture release curve at very low suctions. This method compares the resistance of aggregates to slaking on a relative scale from zero to one. Thus, the aggregate stability from different soils and management practices can be directly compared. The aggregate stability ratio was greater than 50% for all soils, which shows that the aggregate stability index is high, both in eucalyptus and native vegetation areas. This suggests that soil management adopted for eucalyptus cultivation does not substantially modify this property. In these soils, the aggregate stability ratio does not show a good relationship with clay or soil organic matter contents. However, soil organic matter shows a positive relationship with clay content and cation exchange capacity.

AB Pesticide contamination of surface waters has been a global concern for decades. In agricultural areas, pesticides enter receiving waters through irrigation and storm runoff, spray drift, or even atmospheric deposition. Management practices incorporating vegetation and phytoremediation have demonstrated success in reducing pesticide loads to rivers, lakes, and streams. This chapter will focus on a variety of vegetative management practices (e.g. constructed wetlands, drainage ditches, and rice fields) which have been studied in the intensively cultivated Mississippi Delta. Summaries of research results will be presented, as well as potential future directions for additional research.

AB Pesticides associated with the turfgrass industry have been detected in stormwater runoff and surface waters of urban watersheds. The detection of pesticides at locations where they have not been applied along with reported effects of pesticides to non-target organisms at environmentally relevant levels has raised the need to provide methodologies to control their off-site transport. We designed experiments to evaluate the effectiveness of cultivation practices to mitigate the off-site transport of herbicides in runoff from turf managed as a golf course fairway. Overall hollow tine core cultivation (HTCC) showed a reduction in runoff relative to the no core cultivation (NCC), solid tine core cultivation (STCC) and verticutting (VC). Likewise the percentage of applied herbicides measured in the runoff were smaller from turf managed with HTCC. These trends were statistically significant for dicamba, MCPP, and 2,4-D when comparing HTCC versus STCC at 2d following core cultivation, for 2,4-D when comparing HTCC with STCC at 63d following core cultivation, and for 2,4-D when comparing HTCC with VC. Results of this research provide quantitative information that will allow for informed decisions on management practices for turf that can maximize pesticide retention at the site of application; improving pest control while minimizing environmental contamination and adverse effects associated with the off-site transport of pesticides to surface waters.

AB Atrazine (AIR) runoff from farm fields may negatively impact water quality in agricultural watersheds. Vegetated buffers strips (VBS) are commonly used to mitigate impacts. A growth chamber study was conducted to investigate the effect of introducing the bacterial ATR-degrader Pseudomonas sp. ADP into VBS soil on ATR degradation. The introduction of Pseudomonas sp. ADP into soil that had been maintained with and without switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) enhanced the rate of AIR degradation. More than 99% of applied C-14-ATR was degraded within the first 72 hours post-inoculation with 54.5% of applied C-14 ATR mineralized to CO2. Degradation rates were less than 18% and 26% in un-inoculated control and switchgrass soils, respectively. Hydroxylated metabolites of ATR, including hydroxyatrazine and desethylhydroxyatrazine, were the major degradation products in the inoculated treatments. ATR's N-dealkylated metabolite desethylatrazine was the major degradation product in the un-inoculated soil. Quantitative PCR amplification studies showed that soil from the switchgrass treatment sustained the number of atzA gene copies at higher levels early in the treatment when compared to the bulk soil without switchgrass. In the presence of switchgrass, atzA copy number was stimulated for the first two weeks postinoculation with levels steadily decreasing to about 10% of the day 0 value in this time period. A continued decrease to about 2% of the time-zero value was observed over days 24-37. The lack of complete ATR mineralization may be attributed to the loss of atzA gene copy number over time since this implied a loss of ATR-degrading potential. The addition of Pseudomonas sp. strain ADP resulted in a 3-fold or greater increase in atzA copy number as compared with atzA copy number in soil samples collected from ATR treated field samples. Results indicate that addition of ATR degrading bacteria into VBS soil has the potential to enhance buffer performance by increasing degradation rates of entrapped ATR.

AB Erosion and agrichemical runoff are persistent natural resource concerns. Practices designed to reduce water quality impacts include replacing conventional with conservation-tillage management and maintaining and restoring riparian forests and wetlands. Data and models describing ecosystem-scale responses to these practices are needed to effectively assess their risk reduction potential. We used the Riparian Ecosystem Management Model (REMM) to evaluate riparian buffer system response to herbicide runoff from farm fields managed conventionally (CT) or under a common conservation-tillage practice, strip-tillage (ST). Measured hydrologic and water quality data from a seven-year field study conducted in south central Georgia (USA) were used. Inputs from the CT-system were about 2 times higher than from the ST-system. Simulated outputs from the buffer tracked the input pattern. However, the model indicated that ST-system inputs were attenuated at a lower rate during transport through the buffer. Findings were explainable by examining model processes and agreed with published studies that herbicides transported primarily in the dissolved form and delivered in subsurface flow have lower rates of retention in vegetated buffers. This has implications for assessing impacts of theses conservation practices at watershed scales.

AB The formation of microspheres from various pectin hydrogel complexes and corn zein in the presence of calcium and zinc ions has been studied. It is shown that the formation of microspheres and their loading capacity for a drug (piroxicam) depend on the type of biopolymers, their ratio, the sizes of the bivalent ions, and the molecular mass of the pectin. Complex formation between the two biopolymers results predominantly from bivalent metal cross-linking for low-methylated pectins and from hydrophobic interaction for high-methylated pectins. As a result, a series of microspheres have been prepared from biodegradable and biocompatible polymers and may find application as controlled-release drug delivery systems.

AB Until recently, obtaining unambiguous data from a nanoindentation measurement placed near a free edge has not been possible because the discontinuity associated with the edge introduces artifacts into the measurement. The primary consequence of a free edge is to introduce a structural compliance, C-s, into the measurement. Like the machine compliance, C-m, C-s is independent of the size of the indent and it adds to the measured unloading compliance; but unlike C-m, C-s is a function of position. Accounting for C-s in nanoindentation analyses removes the artifacts in nanoindentation measurements associated with the edge, allowing researchers to more accurately probe material properties near an edge. Expressions were obtained for the effect of the free edge on hardness and modulus measured using the Oliver-Pharr method. The theory was tested on specimens including fused silica, poly(methyl methacrylate), and a layered silicon-on-insulator specimen.

AB Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) is a multifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the fixation of CO2 and O-2 in photosynthesis and photorespiration, respectively. As the rate-limiting step in photosynthesis, improving the catalytic properties of Rubisco has long been viewed as a viable strategy for increasing plant productivity. Advances in biotechnology have made this goal more attainable by making it possible to modify Rubisco in planta. To properly evaluate the properties of Rubisco, it is necessary to isolate the enzyme in pure form. This chapter describes procedures for rapid and efficient purification of Rubisco from leaves of several species.

This action modulates the activation state of Rubisco by removing tightly-bound inhibitory sugar-phosphates from Rubisco's catalytic sites, thereby restoring the sites to catalytic competence. This chapter reports methods developed for assaying the two activities of Rubisco activase: ATP hydrolysis and Rubisco activation.

AB Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) is the bacterial causal agent of Pierce's disease (PD) as well as other economically important diseases in a number of agronomic, horticultural and ornamental plants. The objective of this research was to tentatively identify proteins that are differentially expressed in grapevines and involved in disease development or defense responses to Xf-inoculation. We comparatively analyzed proteins differentially expressed in Xf-inoculated grape stems using a pair of siblings of 9621-67 (highly susceptible) and 9621-94 (highly resistant) from a cross of Vitis rupestris x Vitis arizonica. Total proteins were extracted from the stems of uninoculated controls and Xf-inoculated plants at 1, 6, and 12 weeks after inoculation, separated by a 2D-PAGE system, and spots representing differentially expressed proteins were analyzed and tentatively identified using LC/MS/MS. Protein identification was performed using BLASTp and tBLASTn against NCBI non-redundant protein databases and EST databases, respectively. Ten tentatively identified proteins were differentially expressed at different time points after inoculation. A thaumatin-like protein and the pathogenesis-related protein 10 from both genotypes, and the 40S ribosomal protein S25 from the susceptible genotype were up-regulated in response to Xf-inoculation. Furthermore, the expression of the thaumatin-like protein increased sharply 12 weeks post-inoculation in the PD-resistant genotype only. Three heat shock proteins, 17.9 kDa class II, protein 18 and 21 were highly expressed in healthy tissues compared with those in tissues infected with Xf, and heat shock protein 21 was not detectable in the Xf-inoculated PD-susceptible genotype. In addition, a down-regulated putative ripening related protein was found in the Xf-inoculated PD-susceptible genotype. Glycoprotein and formate dehydrogenase were identified in the PD-resistant genotype and their expression was constant during plant development. A putative GTP-binding protein was down-regulated in the PD-susceptible genotype. Our results revealed that differential expression of proteins in response to Xf-inoculation was genotype and tissue development stage dependent. The specific roles of these candidate proteins in alleviation or aggravation of this disease are under investigation. The information obtained in this study will aid in the understanding of the mechanisms related to the host-pathogen interactions involved in PD. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Four different potato cropping systems, designed to address specific management goals of soil conservation, soil improvement, disease suppression, and a status quo standard rotation control, were evaluated for their effects on soilborne diseases of potato and soil microbial community characteristics. The status quo system (SQ) consisted of barley under-seeded with red clover followed by potato (2-year). The soil-conserving system (SC) featured an additional year of forage grass and reduced tillage (3-year, barley/timothy-timothy-potato). The soil-improving system (SI) added yearly compost amendments to the SC rotation, and the disease-suppressive system (DS) featured diverse crops with known disease-suppressive capability (3-year, mustard/rapeseed-sudangrass/rye-potato). Each system was also compared with a continuous potato control (PP) and evaluated under both irrigated and nonirrigated conditions. Data collected over three potato seasons following full rotation cycles demonstrated that all rotations reduced stem canker (10 to 50%) relative to PP. The SQ, SC, and DS systems reduced black scurf (18 to 58%) relative to PP; ST reduced scurf under nonirri2ated but not irrigated conditions; and scurf was lower in DS than all other systems. The SQ. SC, and DS systems also reduced common scab (15 to 45%), and scab was lower in DS than all other systems. Irrigation increased black scurf and common scab but also resulted in higher yields for most rotations. SI produced the highest yields under nonirrigated conditions, and DS produced high yields and low disease under both irrigation regimes. Each cropping system resulted in distinctive changes in soil microbial community characteristics as represented by microbial populations, substrate utilization, and fatty acid methyl-ester (FAME) profiles. SI tended to increase soil moisture, microbial populations, and activity, as well result in higher proportions of monounsaturated FAMEs and the FAME biomarker for mycorrhizae (16:1 omega 6c) relative to most other rotations. DS resulted in moderate microbial populations and activity but higher substrate richness and diversity in substrate utilization profiles. DS also resulted in relatively higher proportions of FAME biomarkers for fungi (18:2 omega 6c), actinomycetes, and gram-positive bacteria than most other systems, whereas PP resulted in the lowest microbial populations and activity; substrate richness and diversity; proportions of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated FAME classes; and fungal, mycorrhizae, and actinomycete FAME biomarkers of all cropping systems. Overall, soil water, soil quality, and soilborne diseases were all important factors affecting productivity, and cropping systems addressing these constraints improved production. Cropping system approaches will need to balance these factors to achieve sustainable production and disease management.

AB Mixtures of biological control agents can be superior to individual agents in suppressing plant disease, providing enhanced efficacy and reliability from field to field relative to single biocontrol strains. Nonetheless, the efficacy of combinations of Pseudomonas fluorescens A506, a commercial biological control agent for fire blight of pear, and Pantoea vagans strain C9-1 or Pantoea agglomerans strain Eh252 rarely exceeds that of individual strains. A506 suppresses growth of the pathogen on floral colonization and infection sites through preemptive exclusion. C9-1 and Eh252 produce peptide antibiotics that contribute to disease control. In culture, A506 produces an extracellular protease that degrades the peptide antibiotics of C9-1 and Eh252. We hypothesized that strain A506 diminishes the biological control activity of C9-1 and Eh252, thereby reducing the efficacy of biocontrol mixtures. This hypothesis was tested in five replicated field trials comparing biological control of fire blight using strain A506 and A506 aprX::Tn5, an extracellular protease-deficient mutant, as individuals and combined with C9-1 or Eh252. On average, mixtures containing A506 aprX::Tn5 were superior to those containing the wild-type strain, confirming that the extracellular protease of A506 diminished the biological control activity of C9-1 and Eh252 in situ. Mixtures of A506 aprX::Tn5 and C9-1 or Eh252 were superior to oxytetracycline or single biocontrol strains in suppressing fire blight of pear. These experiments demonstrate that certain biological control agents are mechanistically incompatible, in that one strain interferes with the mechanism by which a second strain suppresses plant disease. Mixtures composed of mechanistically compatible strains of biological control agents can suppress disease more effectively than individual biological control agents.

AB U.S. populations of the Fusarium graminearum clade cause head blight on wheat and barley and usually contaminate grain with the trichothecene mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON). Recently, however, individual nivalenol (NIV)-type isolates from the United States were described that belonged to either the newly described species F gerlachii or the genetically distinct Gulf Coast population of E. graminearum sensu stricto (s.s.). Here, we describe the discovery of NIV-type F graminearum s.s. populations that were found in high proportion (79%) among isolates from small-grain-growing regions of Louisiana. We genotyped 237 isolates from Louisiana with newly developed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) restriction fragment length polymorphism markers and multiplex PCR primers that distinguish among the three trichothecene types: the two DON types (15ADON and 3ADON) and NIV. These isolates were compared with 297 isolates from 11 other U.S. states, predominantly from the Midwest. Using Bayesian-model-based clustering, we discovered a southern Louisiana population of F graminearum s.s. that was genetically distinct from the previously recognized pathogen population in the Midwest (MW15ADON population). Population membership was correlated with trichothecene type. Most isolates from the southern Louisiana population were of the NIV type, while the majority of the isolates from the Midwest were of the 15ADON type. A smaller proportion of isolates from Louisiana belonged to the previously described Gulf Coast population that was mostly of the 3ADON type. The NIV type was also identified in collections from Arkansas (12%), North Carolina (40%), and Missouri (2%). with the collections from Arkansas and North Carolina being small and unrepresentative. F asiaticum was detected from the two southern Louisiana parishes Acadia and Alexandria. All identified 41 F asiaticum isolates were of the NIV type. Greenhouse tests indicated that U.S. NIV types accumulated four times less trichothecene toxin than DON types on inoculated wheat. This is the first report of NIV-type populations of E graminearum s. s. and F asiaticum in the United States.

AB Phytophthora ramorum, the cause of sudden oak death on oak and ramorum blight on woody ornamentals, has been reported in ornamental nurseries on the West Coast of North America from British Columbia to California. Long-distance migration of P ramorum has occurred via the nursery trade, and shipments of host plants are known to have crossed the U.S.-Canadian border. We investigated the genotypic diversity of P ramorum in Canadian nurseries and compared the Canadian population with U.S. and European nursery isolates for evidence of migration among populations. All three of the P. ramorum clonal lineages were found in Canada but, unexpectedly, the most common was the NA2 lineage. The NA1 clonal lineage, which has been the most common lineage in U.S. nurseries, was found relatively infrequently in Canada, and these isolates may have been the result of migration from the United States to Canada. The EU1 lineage was observed almost every year and shared multilocus genotypes with isolates from Europe and the United States. Estimation of migration rates between Europe and North America indicated that migration was higher from Europe to North America than vice versa, and that unidirectional migration from Europe to North America was more likely than bidirectional migration.

AB Through sos3 (salt overly sensitive 3) suppressor screening, two allelic suppressor mutants that are weak alleles of the strong sos3 suppressor sos3hkt1-1 were recovered. Molecular characterization identified T-DNA insertions in the distal promoter region of the Arabidopsis thaliana HKT1 (AtHKT1, At4g10310) in these two weak sos3 suppressors, which results in physical separation of a tandem repeat from the proximal region of the AtHKT1 promoter. The tandem repeat is approximately 3.9 kb upstream of the ATG start codon and functions as an enhancer element to promote reporter gene expression. A putative small RNA target region about 2.6 kb upstream of the ATG start codon is heavily methylated. CHG and CHH methylation but not CG methylation is significantly reduced in the small RNA biogenesis mutant rdr2, indicating that non-CG methylation in this region is mediated by small RNAs. Analysis of AtHKT1 expression in rdr2 suggests that non-CG methylation in the putative small RNA target region represses AtHKT1 expression in shoots. The DNA methylation-deficient mutant met1-3 has nearly complete loss of total cytosine methylation in the putative small RNA target region and is hypersensitive to salt stress. The putative small RNA target region and the tandem repeat are essential for maintaining AtHKT1 expression patterns crucial for salt tolerance.

AB The Arabidopsis gene AVP1 encodes a vacuolar pyrophosphatase that functions as a proton pump on the vacuolar membrane. Overexpression of AVP1 in Arabidopsis, tomato and rice enhances plant performance under salt and drought stress conditions, because up-regulation of the type I H+-PPase from Arabidopsis may result in a higher proton electrochemical gradient, which facilitates enhanced sequestering of ions and sugars into the vacuole, reducing water potential and resulting in increased drought-and salt tolerance when compared to wild-type plants. Furthermore, over-expression of AVP1 stimulates auxin transport in the root system and leads to larger root systems, which helps transgenic plants absorb water more efficiently under drought conditions. Using the same approach, AVP1-expressing cotton plants were created and tested for their performance under high-salt and reduced irrigation conditions. The AVP1-expressing cotton plants showed more vigorous growth than wild-type plants in the presence of 200 mM NaCl under hydroponic growth conditions. The soil-grown AVP1-expressing cotton plants also displayed significantly improved tolerance to both drought and salt stresses in greenhouse conditions. Furthermore, the fibre yield of AVP1-expressing cotton plants is at least 20% higher than that of wild-type plants under dry-land conditions in the field. This research indicates that AVP1 has the potential to be used for improving crop's drought- and salt tolerance in areas where water and salinity are limiting factors for agricultural productivity.

AB The physiological role and mechanism of nutrient storage within vacuoles of specific cell types is poorly understood. Transcript profiles from Arabidopsis thaliana leaf cells differing in calcium concentration ([Ca], epidermis < 10 mM versus mesophyll > 60 mM) were compared using a microarray screen and single-cell quantitative PCR. Three tonoplast-localized Ca2+ transporters, CAX1 (Ca2+/H+-antiporter), ACA4, and ACA11 (Ca2+-ATPases), were identified as preferentially expressed in Ca-rich mesophyll. Analysis of respective loss-of-function mutants demonstrated that only a mutant that lacked expression of both CAX1 and CAX3, a gene ectopically expressed in leaves upon knockout of CAX1, had reduced mesophyll [Ca]. Reduced capacity for mesophyll Ca accumulation resulted in reduced cell wall extensibility, stomatal aperture, transpiration, CO2 assimilation, and leaf growth rate; increased transcript abundance of other Ca2+ transporter genes; altered expression of cell wall-modifying proteins, including members of the pectinmethylesterase, expansin, cellulose synthase, and polygalacturonase families; and higher pectin concentrations and thicker cell walls. We demonstrate that these phenotypes result from altered apoplastic free [Ca2+], which is threefold greater in cax1/cax3 than in wild-type plants. We establish CAX1 as a key regulator of apoplastic [Ca2+] through compartmentation into mesophyll vacuoles, a mechanism essential for optimal plant function and productivity.

AB Gene targeting in plants through homologous recombination has been sparsely reported, although notable breakthroughs have been achieved in recent years (1). In particular, the use of zinc finger nucleases to promote homologous end joining has revived the promise that homologous gene targeting could someday become practical for plant genetic engineering (2, 3). An alternative and complementary approach that has progressed steadily over the years has been recombinase-mediated site-specific integration (4). In this approach, a first recombination site is introduced into the genome to serve as a target for inserting subsequent DNA. Here, we describe the method for generating the chromosomal target and the subsequent insertion of new DNA into the chromosomal target by Bxb1-mediated site-specific integration. This method would permit the comparison of different molecular constructs at the same genomic locations.

AB Tissue culture techniques play an important role in the utilization of wild Cicerspecies for the improvement of cultivated chickpea. Utilization of wild Cicer species has become essential as a series of evolutionary bottlenecks have narrowed the genetic base of chickpea, thus making it susceptible to a range of diseases and pests. Crosses with wild Cicer can broaden its genetic base and introduce useful traits. Except for two wild species, none of the other Cicer species are cross-compatible. To use a range of Cicer species for the improvement of chickpea, embryo rescue and tissue culture techniques are necessary. The success of the cross with incompatible species depended on a range of techniques including the application of growth regulators to pollinated pistils and saving aborting embryos in vitro. Further, the chances of successful transfer of hybrid shoots to soil are greater if the hybrid shoots are grafted to chickpea stocks.

AB P>The pathogen Stagonospora nodorum produces multiple effectors, also known as host-selective toxins (HSTs), that interact with corresponding host sensitivity genes in an inverse gene-for-gene manner to cause the disease Stagonospora nodorum blotch (SNB) in wheat. In this study, a sensitivity gene was identified in Aegilops tauschii, the diploid D-genome donor of common wheat. The gene was mapped to the short arm of chromosome 5D and mediated recognition of the effector SnTox3, which was previously shown to be recognized by the wheat gene Snn3 on chromosome arm 5BS. Comparative mapping suggested that Snn3 and the gene on 5DS are probably homoeologous and derived from a common ancestor. Therefore, we propose to designate these genes as Snn3-B1 and Snn3-D1, respectively. Compatible Snn3-D1-SnTox3 interactions resulted in more severe necrosis in both effector infiltration and spore inoculation experiments than compatible Snn3-B1-SnTox3 interactions, indicating that Snn3-B1 and Snn3-D1 may have different affinities in SnTox3 recognition or signal transduction. Wheat bin-mapped expressed sequence tags and good levels of collinearity among the wheat Snn3 regions, rice (Oryza sativa), and Brachypodium distachyon were exploited for saturation and fine mapping of the Snn3-D1 locus. Markers delineating the Snn3-D1 locus to a 1.4 cM interval will be useful for initiating positional cloning. Further characterization of how these homoeologous genes mediate recognition of the same pathogen effector should enhance understanding of host manipulation by necrotrophic pathogens in causing disease.

AB P>The biosynthesis of the tocotrienol and tocopherol forms of vitamin E is initiated by prenylation of homogentisate. Geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGDP) is the prenyl donor for tocotrienol synthesis, whereas phytyl diphosphate (PDP) is the prenyl donor for tocopherol synthesis. We have previously shown that tocotrienol synthesis is initiated in monocot seeds by homogentisate geranylgeranyl transferase (HGGT). This enzyme is related to homogentisate phytyltransferase (HPT), which catalyzes the prenylation step in tocopherol synthesis. Here we show that monocot HGGT is localized in the plastid and expressed primarily in seed endosperm. Despite the close structural relationship of monocot HGGT and HPT, these enzymes were found to have distinct substrate specificities. Barley (Hordeum vulgare cv. Morex) HGGT expressed in insect cells was six times more active with GGDP than with PDP, whereas the Arabidopsis HPT was nine times more active with PDP than with GGDP. However, only small differences were detected in the apparent K-m values of barley HGGT for GGDP and PDP. Consistent with its in vitro substrate properties, barley HGGT generated a mixture of tocotrienols and tocopherols when expressed in the vitamin E-null vte2-1 mutant lacking a functional HPT. Relative levels of tocotrienols and tocopherols produced in vte2-1 differed between organs and growth stages, reflective of the composition of plastidic pools of GGDP and PDP. In addition, HGGT was able to functionally substitute for HPT to rescue vte2-1-associated phenotypes, including reduced seed viability and increased fatty acid oxidation of seed lipids. Overall, we show that monocot HGGT is biochemically distinct from HPT, but can replace HPT in important vitamin E-related physiological processes.

Resistance in G. max ([Peking]) occurs by a potent and rapid localized response, affecting parasitic second stage juveniles (p-J2). In contrast, resistance occurs by a potent but more prolonged reaction in the genotype G. max ([PI 88788]) that affects nematode development at the J3 and J4 stages. Microarray analyses comparing these cytologically and developmentally distinct resistant reactions reveal differences in gene expression in pericycle and surrounding cells even before infection. The differences include higher relative levels of the differentially expressed in response to arachidonic acid 1 gene (DEA1 [Gm-DEA1]) (+224.19-fold) and a protease inhibitor (+68.28-fold) in G. max ([Peking/PI 548402]) as compared to G. max ([PI 88788]). Gene pathway analyses compare the two genotypes (1) before, (2) at various times during, (3) constitutively throughout the resistant reaction and (4) at all time points prior to and during the resistant reaction. The amplified levels of transcriptional activity of defense genes may explain the rapid and potent reaction in G. max ([Peking/PI 548402]) as compared to G. max ([PI 88788]). In contrast, the shared differential expression levels of genes in G. max ([Peking/PI 548402]) and G. max ([PI 88788]) may indicate a conserved genomic program underlying the G. max resistance on which the genotype-specific gene expression programs are built off.

AB The organ-specific accumulation, spatial distribution, and chemical speciation of selenium (Se) were previously unknown for any species of cactus. We investigated Se in Opuntia ficus-indica using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, microfocused x-ray fluorescence elemental and chemical mapping (mu XRF), Se K-edge x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy, and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). mu XRF showed Se concentrated inside small conic, vestigial leaves (cladode tips), the cladode vasculature, and the seed embryos. Se K-edge XANES demonstrated that approximately 96% of total Se in cladode, fruit juice, fruit pulp, and seed is carbon-Se-carbon (C-Se-C). Micro and bulk XANES analysis showed that cladode tips contained both selenate and C-Se-C forms. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry quantification of Se in high-performance liquid chromatography fractions followed by LC-MS structural identification showed selenocystathionine-to-selenomethionine (SeMet) ratios of 75: 25, 71: 29, and 32: 68, respectively in cladode, fruit, and seed. Enzymatic digestions and subsequent analysis confirmed that Se was mainly present in a "free" nonproteinaceous form inside cladode and fruit, while in the seed, Se was incorporated into proteins associated with lipids. mXRF chemical mapping illuminated the specific location of Se reduction and assimilation from selenate accumulated in the cladode tips into the two LC-MS-identified C-Se-C forms before they were transported into the cladode mesophyll. We conclude that Opuntia is a secondary Se-accumulating plant whose fruit and cladode contain mostly free selenocystathionine and SeMet, while seeds contain mainly SeMet in protein. When eaten, the organic Se forms in Opuntia fruit, cladode, and seed may improve health, increase Se mineral nutrition, and help prevent multiple human cancers.

AB Signaling induced upon a reduction in oleic acid (18: 1) levels simultaneously up-regulates salicylic acid (SA)-mediated responses and inhibits jasmonic acid (JA)-inducible defenses, resulting in enhanced resistance to biotrophs but increased susceptibility to necrotrophs. SA and the signaling component Enhanced Disease Susceptibility1 function redundantly in this low-18:1-derived pathway to induce SA signaling but do not function in the repression of JA responses. We show that repression of JA-mediated signaling under low-18: 1 conditions is mediated via the WRKY50 and WRKY51 proteins. Knockout mutations in WRKY50 and WRKY51 lowered SA levels but did not restore pathogenesis-related gene expression or pathogen resistance to basal levels in the low-18: 1-containing Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) mutant, suppressor of SA insensitivity2 (ssi2). In contrast, both JA-inducible PDF1.2 (defensin) expression and basal resistance to Botrytis cinerea were restored. Simultaneous mutations in both WRKY genes (ssi2 wrky50 wrky51) did not further enhance the JA or Botrytis-related responses. The ssi2 wrky50 and ssi2 wrky51 plants contained high levels of reactive oxygen species and exhibited enhanced cell death, the same as ssi2 plants. This suggested that high reactive oxygen species levels or increased cell death were not responsible for the enhanced susceptibility of ssi2 plants to B. cinerea. Exogenous SA inhibited JA-inducible PDF1.2 expression in the wild type but not in wrky50 or wrky51 mutant plants. These results show that the WRKY50 and WRKY51 proteins mediate both SA-and low-18:1-dependent repression of JA signaling.

AB The objective of this study was to determine if developing barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seeds had differences in beta-amylase 1 (Bmy1) mRNA accumulation, beta-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2) activity, beta-amylase protein accumulation, and total protein levels during late seed development from genotypes with different Bmy1 intron III alleles. Two North American malting barley cultivars (Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare) were chosen to represent the Bmy1.a and Bmy1.b alleles and, due to limited Bmy1 intron III allele variation in North American cultivars, two wild barleys (Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum) were chosen to represent the Bmy1.c and Bmy1.d alleles. Wild barleys Ashqelon (Bmy1.c) and PI 296897 (Bmy1.d) had 2.5- to 3-fold higher Bmy1 mRNA levels than cultivars Legacy (Bmy1.a) and Harrington (Bmy1.b). Levels of Bmy1 mRNA were not significantly different between cultivated or between wild genotypes. In all four genotypes Bmy1 mRNA levels increased from 17 to 19 days after anthesis (DAA) and remained constant from 19 to 21 DAA. Ashqelon and PI 296897 had more beta-amylase activity on a fresh weight basis than Legacy and Harrington at all developmental stages. beta-Amylase protein levels increased from 17 DAA to maturity in all genotypes. Total protein in grains from wild genotypes was significantly higher than cultivated genotypes at all developmental stages. Higher levels of total protein in Ashqelon and PI 296897 could explain their higher levels of beta-amylase activity, when expressed on a fresh weight basis. When beta-amylase activities are expressed on a protein basis there are no statistical differences between the wild and cultivated barleys at maturity. Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.

AB We describe here the construction of Gateway-compatible vectors, pBGP1-DEST and pPICZ alpha-DEST, for rapid and convenient preparation of expression plasmids for production of secretory proteins in Pichia pastoris. Both vectors direct the synthesis of fusion proteins consisting of the N-terminal signal and pro-sequences of Saccharomyces cerevisiae alpha-factor, the recognition sites for Kex2 and Ste13 processing proteases, the mature region of a foreign protein flanked by attB1- and attB2-derived sequences at N- and C-termini, respectively, and myc plus hexahistidine tags added at the extreme C-terminus. To test the usefulness of these vectors, production of endo-glucanases and xylanases from termite symbionts, as well as a fungal glucuronoyl esterase, was performed. Enzyme activities were detected in the culture supernatants, indicating that the chimeric proteins were synthesized and secreted as designed. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB We used data from 11 long-term studies to assess temporal and spatial patterns in fecundity, apparent survival, recruitment, and annual finite rate of population change of Northern Spotted Owls (Strix occidentalis caurina) from 1985 to 2008. Our objectives were to evaluate the status and trends of the subspecies throughout its range and to investigate associations between population parameters and covariates that might be influencing any observed trends. We examined associations between population parameters and temporal, spatial, and ecological covariates by developing a set of a priori hypotheses and models for each analysis. We used information-theoretic methods and QAIC(c) model selection to choose the best model(s) and rank the rest. Variables included in models were gender, age, and effects of time. Covariates included in some analyses were reproductive success, presence of Barred Owls (Strix varia), percent cover of suitable owl habitat, several weather and climate variables including seasonal and annual variation in precipitation and temperature, and three long-term climate indices. Estimates of fecundity, apparent survival, recruitment, and annual rate of population change were computed from the best models or with model averaging for each study area. The average number of years of reproductive data from each study area was 19 (range = 17 to 24), and the average number of captures/resightings per study area was 2,219 (range = 583 to 3,777), excluding multiple resightings of the same individuals in the same year. The total sample of 5,224 marked owls included 796 1-yr-old subadults, 903 2-yr-old subadults, and 3,545 adults (>= 3 yrs old). The total number of annual captures/recaptures/resightings was 24,408, and the total number of cases in which we determined the number of young produced was 11,450.
   Age had an important effect on fecundity, with adult females generally having higher fecundity than 1- or 2-yr-old females. Nine of the 11 study areas had an even-odd year effect on fecundity in the best model or a competitive model, with higher fecundity in even years. Based on the best model that included a time trend in fecundity, we concluded that fecundity was declining on five areas, stable on three areas, and increasing on three areas. Evidence for an effect of Barred Owl presence on fecundity on individual study areas was somewhat mixed. The Barred Owl covariate was included in the best model or a competitive model for five study areas, but the relationship was negative for four areas and positive for one area. At the other six study areas, the association between fecundity and the proportion of Spotted Owl territories in which Barred Owls were detected was weak or absent. The percent cover of suitable owl habitat was in the top fecundity model for all study areas in Oregon, and in competitive models for two of the three study areas in Washington. In Oregon, all 95% confidence intervals on beta coefficients for the habitat covariate excluded zero, and on four of the five areas the relationship between the percent cover of suitable owl habitat and fecundity was positive, as predicted. However, contrary to our predictions, fecundity on one of the Oregon study areas (KLA) declined with increases in suitable habitat. On all three study areas in Washington, the beta estimates for the effects of habitat on fecundity had 95% confidence intervals that broadly overlapped zero, suggesting there was less evidence of a habitat effect on fecundity on those study areas. Habitat effects were not included in models for study areas in California, because we did not have a comparable habitat map for those areas. Weather covariates explained some of the variability in fecundity for five study areas, but the best weather covariate and the direction of the effect varied among areas. For example, there was evidence that fecundity was negatively associated with low temperatures and high amounts of precipitation during the early nesting season on three study areas but not on the other eight study areas.
   The meta-analysis of fecundity for all study areas (no habitat covariates included) suggested that fecundity varied by time and was parallel across ecoregions or latitudinal gradients, with some weak evidence for a negative Barred Owl (BO) effect. However, the 95% confidence interval for the beta coefficient for the BO effect overlapped zero ((beta) over cap = -0.12, SE = 0.11, 95% CI = -0.31 to 0.07). The best models from the meta-analysis of fecundity for Washington and Oregon (habitat covariates included) included the effects of ecoregion and annual time plus weak effects of habitat and Barred Owls. However, the 95% confidence intervals for beta coefficients for the effects of Barred Owls and habitat overlapped zero ((beta) over cap (BO) = -0.104, 95% CI = -0.369 to 0.151; (beta) over cap (HAB1) = -0.469, 95% CI = -1.363 to 0.426). In both meta-analyses of fecundity, linear trends (T) in fecundity were not supported, nor were effects of land ownership, weather, or climate covariates. Average fecundity over all years was similar among ecoregions except for the Washington-Mixed-Conifer ecoregion, where mean fecundity was 1.7 to 2.0 times higher than in the other ecoregions.
   In the analysis of apparent survival on individual study areas, recapture probabilities typically ranged from 0.70 to 0.90. Survival differed among age groups, with subadults, especially 1-yr-olds, having lower apparent survival than adults. There was strong support for declining adult survival on 10 of 11 study areas, and declines were most evident in Washington and northwest Oregon. There was also evidence that apparent survival was negatively associated with the presence of Barred Owls on six of the study areas. In the analyses of individual study areas, we found little evidence for differences in apparent survival between males and females, or for negative effects of reproduction on survival in the following year.
   In the meta-analysis of apparent survival, the best model was a random effects model in which survival varied among study areas (g) and years (t), and recapture rates varied among study areas, sexes (s), and years. This model also included the random effects of study area and reproduction (R). The effect of reproduction was negative ((beta) over cap = -0.024), with a 95% confidence interval that barely overlapped zero (-0.049 to 0.001). Several random effects models were competitive, including a second-best model that included the Barred Owl (BO) covariate. The estimated regression coefficient for the BO covariate was negative ((beta) over cap = -0.086), with a 95% confidence interval that did not overlap zero (-0.158 to -0.014). One competitive random effects model included a negative linear time trend on survival ((beta) over cap = -0.0016) with a 95% confidence interval (-0.0035 to 0.0003) that barely overlapped zero. Other random effects models that were competitive with the best model included climate effects (Pacific Decadal Oscillation, Southern Oscillation Index) or weather effects (early nesting season precipitation, early nesting season temperature). Ownership category, percent cover of suitable owl habitat, and latitude had little to no effect on apparent survival. Apparent survival differed among ecoregions, but the ecoregion covariate explained little of the variation among study areas and years.
   Estimates of the annual finite rate of population change (lambda) were below 1.0 for all study areas, and there was strong evidence that populations on 7 of the 11 study areas declined during the study. For four study areas, the 95% confidence intervals for lambda overlapped 1.0, so we could not conclude that those populations were declining. The weighted mean estimate of lambda for all study areas was 0.971 (SE = 0.007, 95% CI = 0.960 to 0.983), indicating that the average rate of population decline in all study areas combined was 2.9% per year. Annual rates of decline were most precipitous on study areas in Washington and northern Oregon. Based on estimates of realized population change, populations on four study areas declined 40 to 60% during the study, and populations on three study areas declined 20 to 30%. Declines on the other four areas were less dramatic (5 to 15%), with 95% confidence intervals that broadly overlapped 1.0.
   Based on the top-ranked a priori model in the meta-analysis of lambda, there was evidence that ecoregions and the proportion of Spotted Owl territories with Barred Owl detections were important sources of variation for apparent survival (phi(t)) and recruitment (f(t)). There was some evidence that recruitment was higher on study areas dominated by federal lands compared to study areas that were on private lands or lands that included approximately equal amounts of federal and private lands. There also was evidence that recruitment was positively related to the proportion of the study area that was covered by suitable owl habitat.
   We concluded that fecundity, apparent survival, and/or populations were declining on most study areas, and that increasing numbers of Barred Owls and loss of habitat were partly responsible for these declines. However, fecundity and survival showed considerable annual variation at all study areas, little of which was explained by the covariates that we used. Although our study areas were not randomly selected, we believe our results reflected conditions on federal lands and areas of mixed federal and private lands within the range of the Northern Spotted Owl because the study areas were (1) large, covering approximate to 9% of the range of the subspecies; (2) distributed across a broad geographic region and within most of the geographic provinces occupied by the owl; and (3) the percent cover of owl habitat was similar between our study areas and the surrounding landscapes.

ID GULO-GULO; CALIFORNIA; CANADA
AB The recent paper by Brodie and Post ("Nonlinear responses of wolverine populations to declining winter snowpack", Popul Ecol 52:279-287, 2010) reports conclusions that are unsupportable, in our opinion, due to both mis-interpretations of current knowledge regarding the wolverine's (Gulo gulo) association with snow, and the uncritical use of harvest data to index wolverine populations. The authors argue that, because the wolverine is a snow-dependent species, average annual provincial snowfall, based on weather station data, can be expected to correlate strongly and positively with wolverine population numbers, which in turn can be accurately indexed by trapper harvests. Thus, correlations between declines in wolverine harvests and declining average snowpack are interpreted to reflect a climate-driven decrease in wolverine populations. This conclusion overstates the nature of the wolverine's association with snow, and makes unsupportable assumptions about the reliability of harvest data as a proxy for population size.

AB To further our understanding of the response of 'Bartlett' pear fruit to 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) and their ability to recover the capacity to ripen, 'Bartlett' pears were treated with 0.3 mu LL(-1) 1-MCP for 12h at 20 degrees C immediately after harvest in two seasons and to pear fruit of four maturities. 1-MCP decreased rates of softening, ethylene production, respiration, and yellow color development, and reduced incidence of scald and internal breakdown. Ripening recovery induced by cold storage of 1-MCP treated fruit depended on maturity and season and was associated with stimulated ethylene production, including 1-aminocyclopropene carboxylic acid synthase (ACS) activity, 1-aminocyclopropene carboxylic acid oxidase (ACO) activity, and transcript levels of genes associated with these enzymes.

AB Postharvest green mold and blue mold, caused by Penicillium digitatum and Penicillium italicum, respectively, were effectively controlled by fumigation of lemons and oranges for 6 h at 22 degrees C with two applied dosages of 3000 mu L L(-1) of ammonia that was injected initially and again 2h later. This treatment did not injure oranges, however, it caused the tissue within previously injured areas on the rind of lemons to become darker in color. Fumigation of lemons with 6000 mu L L(-1) of ammonia slightly accelerated the natural transition of rind color from green to yellow. The germination of conidia of P. italicum was more sensitive to ammonia than those of P. digitatum, although many survived fumigation. About 30% of the conidia of P. digitatum and 10% of those of P. italicum could germinate after a 611 fumigation where two injections of 6000 mu L L(-1) of ammonia were applied, one initially and a second 2 h later. Ammonia fumigation controlled an isolate of P. digitatum with a high level of resistance to imazalil (IMZ). The influence of ammonia fumigation on the effectiveness of this common postharvest fungicide was examined. When fruit were first immersed in 10 or 30 mg L(-1) IMZ (about 10% of typical commercial rates) before ammonia fumigation, a single fumigation with 1500 mu L L(-1) of ammonia was adequate to control both diseases and the increase in effectiveness was usually additive and sometimes synergistic. This effect was probably due in part to the influence of pH on IMZ activity, because the neutral form of IMZ increases with increasing pH and it has markedly higher antifungal activity than the ionized molecule. Fumigation with 1500,3000, or 6000 mu L of ammonia per liter increased the pH (+/- SD) of albedo tissue of pre-existing wounds on oranges and lemons from 5.9 (+/- 0.2) before fumigation by 0.6 (+/- 0.3), 0.9 (+/- 0.4), or 1.3 (+/- 0.3) units, respectively. IMZ can be applied immediately after harvest by drenching fruit within harvest bins with aqueous IMZ solutions. Subsequent ammonia fumigation on their arrival to packinghouses may be a feasible practice, since it could employ the existent ethylene degreening chambers present at all packinghouses, if these were modified to be gas tight. Ammonia could replace synthetic fungicides or augment IMZ performance in citrus postharvest decay management. Its capacity to control IMZ resistant isolates of P. digitatum, common in citrus packinghouses, is particularly valuable. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB A move from conventional cages to either an enriched cage or a noncage system may affect the safety or quality, or both, of the eggs laid by hens raised in this new environment. The safety of the eggs may be altered either microbiologically through contamination of internal contents with Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (Salmonella Enteritidis) or other pathogens, or both, or chemically due to contamination of internal contents with dioxins, pesticides, or heavy metals. Quality may be affected through changes in the integrity of the shell, yolk, or albumen along with changes in function, composition, or nutrition. Season, hen breed, flock age, and flock disease-vaccination status also interact to affect egg safety and quality and must be taken into account. An understanding of these different effects is prudent before any large-scale move to an alternative housing system is undertaken.

AB As part of a systemic assessment toward social sustainability of egg production, we have reviewed current knowledge about the environmental impacts of egg production systems and identified topics requiring further research. Currently, we know that 1) high-rise cage houses generally have poorer air quality and emit more ammonia than manure belt (MB) cage houses; 2) manure removal frequency in MB houses greatly affects ammonia emissions; 3) emissions from manure storage are largely affected by storage conditions, including ventilation rate, manure moisture content, air temperature, and stacking profile; 4) more baseline data on air emissions from high-rise and MB houses are being collected in the United States to complement earlier measurements; 5) noncage houses generally have poorer air quality (ammonia and dust levels) than cage houses; 6) noncage houses tend to be colder during cold weather due to a lower stocking density than caged houses, leading to greater feed and fuel energy use; 7) hens in noncage houses are less efficient in resource (feed, energy, and land) utilization, leading to a greater carbon footprint; 8) excessive application of hen manure to cropland can lead to nutrient runoff to water bodies; 9) hen manure on open (free) range may be subject to runoff during rainfall, although quantitative data are lacking; 10) mitigation technologies exist to reduce generation and emission of noxious gases and dust; however, work is needed to evaluate their economic feasibility and optimize design; and 11) dietary modification shows promise for mitigating emissions. Further research is needed on 1) indoor air quality, barn emissions, thermal conditions, and energy use in alternative hen housing systems (1-story floor, aviary, and enriched cage systems), along with conventional housing systems under different production conditions; 2) environmental footprint for different US egg production systems through life cycle assessment; 3) practical means to mitigate air emissions from different production systems; 4) process-based models for predicting air emissions and their fate; and 5) the interactions between air quality, housing system, worker health, and animal health and welfare.

AB Egg production systems have become subject to heightened levels of scrutiny. Multiple factors such as disease, skeletal and foot health, pest and parasite load, behavior, stress, affective states, nutrition, and genetics influence the level of welfare hens experience. Although the need to evaluate the influence of these factors on welfare is recognized, research is still in the early stages. We compared conventional cages, furnished cages, noncage systems, and outdoor systems. Specific attributes of each system are shown to affect welfare, and systems that have similar attributes are affected similarly. For instance, environments in which hens are exposed to litter and soil, such as noncage and outdoor systems, provide a greater opportunity for disease and parasites. The more complex the environment, the more difficult it is to clean, and the larger the group size, the more easily disease and parasites are able to spread. Environments such as conventional cages, which limit movement, can lead to osteoporosis, but environments that have increased complexity, such as noncage systems, expose hens to an increased incidence of bone fractures. More space allows for hens to perform a greater repertoire of behaviors, although some deleterious behaviors such as cannibalism and piling, which results in smothering, can occur in large groups. Less is understood about the stress that each system imposes on the hen, but it appears that each system has its unique challenges. Selective breeding for desired traits such as improved bone strength and decreased feather pecking and cannibalism may help to improve welfare. It appears that no single housing system is ideal from a hen welfare perspective. Although environmental complexity increases behavioral opportunities, it also introduces difficulties in terms of disease and pest control. In addition, environmental complexity can create opportunities for the hens to express behaviors that may be detrimental to their welfare. As a result, any attempt to evaluate the sustainability of a switch to an alternative housing system requires careful consideration of the merits and shortcomings of each housing system.

AB The diversity of approaches for developing restoration plant material reflects a variety of philosophies that represent what can and should be accomplished by restoration. The "natural" approach emphasizes emulation of putative naturally occurring patterns of genetic variation. The "genetically manipulated" approach involves such techniques as artificial selection, hybridization, bulking, and chromosome doubling to create populations that are ostensibly as well or better equipped to restore ecosystem function than the extirpated natural populations that they are designed to replace. A number of caveats have been issued regarding manipulated plant materials, including concerns regarding improper genetic identity, outbreeding depression, maladaptation, and inappropriate amounts of genetic variation. Here we detail (1) when these concerns are likely to be valid or inconsequential, (2) how precautions may be taken to minimize these concerns, and (3) how to respect, as much as possible, the principles cherished by proponents of natural plant materials, yet still take advantage of the benefits of genetic manipulation.

AB The glycemic index (Cl) indicates how fast blood glucose is raised after consuming a carbohydrate-containing food. Human metabolic studies indicate that GI is related to patho-physiological responses after meals. Compared with a low-GI meal, a high-GI meal is characterized with hyperglycemia during the early postprandial stage (0-2 h) and a compensatory hyperlipidemia associated with counter-regulatory hormone responses during late postprandial stage (4-6 h). Over the past three decades, several human health disorders have been related to Cl. The strongest relationship suggests that consuming low-GI foods prevents diabetic complications. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a complication of diabetes. In this aspect, Cl appears to be useful as a practical guideline to help diabetic people choose foods. Abundant epidemiological evidence also indicates positive associations between Cl and risk for type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and more recently, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in people without diabetes. Although data from randomized controlled intervention trials are scanty, these observations are strongly supported by evolving molecular mechanisms which explain the pathogenesis of hyperglycemia. This wide range of evidence implies that dietary hyperglycemia is etiologically related to human aging and diseases, including DR and AMD. In this context, these diseases can be considered as metabolic retinal diseases.
   Molecular theories that explain hyperglycemic pathogenesis involve a mitochondria-associated pathway and four glycolysis-associated pathways, including advanced glycation end products formation, protein kinase C activation, polyol pathway, and hexosamine pathway. While the four glycolysis-associated pathways appear to be universal for both normoxic and hypoxic conditions, the mitochondria-associated mechanism appears to be most relevant to the hyperglycemic, normoxic pathogenesis. For diseases that affect tissues with highly active metabolism and that frequently face challenge from low oxygen tension, such as retina in which metabolism is determined by both glucose and oxygen homeostases, these theories appear to be insufficient. Several lines of evidence indicate that the retina is particularly vulnerable when hypoxia coincides with hyperglycemia. We propose a novel hyperglycemic, hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway, to complement the current theories regarding hyperglycemic pathogenesis. HIF is a transcription complex that responds to decrease oxygen in the cellular environment. In addition to playing a significant role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, under hyperglycemia HIF has been shown to increase the expression of HIF-inducible genes, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) leading to angiogenesis. To this extent, we suggest that HIF can also be described as a hyperglycemia-inducible factor.
   In summary, while management of dietary Cl appears to be an effective intervention for the prevention of metabolic diseases, specifically AMD and DR, more interventional data is needed to evaluate the efficacy of Cl management. There is an urgent need to develop reliable biomarkers of exposure, surrogate endpoints, as well as susceptibility for Cl. These insights would also be helpful in deciphering the detailed hyperglycemia-related biochemical mechanisms for the development of new therapeutic agents. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

AB A gene encoding cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) from Neurospora crassa strain FGSC 2489 has been cloned and expressed in the heterologous host Pichia pastoris under the control of the AOX1 methanol inducible promoter Recombinant CDH without the native signal sequence and fused with a His(6)-tag (rNC-CDH1) was successfully expressed and secreted rNC-CDH1 was produced at the level of 652 IU/L after 2 days of cultivation in the induction medium The His(6)-tagged rNC-CDH1 was purified through a one-step Ni-NTA affinity column under non-denaturing conditions The purified rNC-CDH1 has a CDH activity of 7451 IU/L (0 89 mg protein/mL) with a specific CDH activity of 837 IU/mg The purity of the enzyme was examined by SDS-PAGE and a single band corresponding to a molecular weight of about 120 kDa was observed Activity staining confirmed the CDH activity of the protein band The purified rNC-CDH1 has maximum CDH activity at pH 4 5 and a rather broad temperature optimum of 25-70 degrees C Kinetic analysis showed cellobiose and cellooligosaccharides are the best substrates for rNC-CDH1 The K(m) value of the rNC-CDH1 for cellooligosaccharide increases with the elongation of glucosyl units k(cat) remains relatively constant when the chain length changes (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc All rights reserved

AB Infection of the maize (Zea mays L.) with aflatoxigenic fungus Aspergillus flavus and consequent contamination with carcinogenic aflatoxin is a persistent and serious agricultural problem causing disease and significant crop losses worldwide. The rachis (cob) is an important structure of maize ear that delivers essential nutrients to the developing kernels and A. flavus spreads through the rachis to infect kernels within the ear. Therefore, rachis plays an important role in fungal proliferation and subsequent kernel contamination. We used proteomic approaches and investigated the rachis tissue from aflatoxin accumulation resistant (Mp313E and Mp420) and susceptible (B73 and SC212m) maize inbred lines. First, we compared rachis proteins from resistant and susceptible inbred lines, which revealed that the young resistant rachis contains higher levels of abiotic stress-related proteins and proteins from phenylpropanoid metabolism, whereas susceptible young rachis contains pathogenesis-related proteins, which are generally inducible upon biotic stress. Second, we identified A. flavus-responsive proteins in rachis of both resistant and susceptible genotypes after 10-and 35-day infection. Differential expression of many stress/defense proteins during rachis juvenility, maturation and after A. flavus challenge demonstrates that resistant rachis relies on constitutive defenses, while susceptible rachis is more dependent on inducible defenses.

AB Rangeland ecosystems are capable of providing an array of ecosystem services important to the wellbeing of society. Some of these services (e. g. meat, fibre) are transported to markets and their quantity, quality and value are established via a set of widely accepted standards. Other services (e. g. climate mitigation, water quality, wildlife habitat) do not leave the land, but are, in fact, most valuable when they remain in situ. Determining their quantity, quality and value presents a challenge that must be met if there is to be a credible, accessible ecosystem services market for rangelands. In this paper we describe some of the ecosystem services that may be extracted from rangelands, discuss their unique ecological nature and relate those unique ecological properties to soil and vegetation attributes that can serve as a basis for measurement, both quality and quantity. We suggest the use of a soil/vegetation-based system in which similar climate, geomorphology and edaphic properties are grouped into ecological sites based on their response to disturbance. Within each ecological site, a unique state and transition model describes the dynamics of vegetation and soil surface properties, provides state indicators (vegetation structure, soil properties), predicts ecosystem services that may be derived at multiple scales, and organises information related to management to achieve ecosystem service objectives, including sustainability.

AB The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has developed repellents and insecticides for the U.S. military since 1942. Repellency and toxicity data for over 30,000 compounds are contained within the USDA archive. Repellency data from subsets of similarly structured compounds were used to develop artificial neural network (ANN) models to predict new compounds for testing. Compounds were then synthesized and evaluated for their repellency against Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Rellency data, i.e., complete protection time (CPT) were used to develop Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) models to predict repellency. Successful prediction of novel acylpiperidine structures by ANN models resulted in the discovery of compounds that provided protection more than three times longer than DEET. The acylpiperidine QSAR models employed 4 descriptors to describe the relationship between structure and repellent duration. The ANN model of the carboxamides did not predict compound structures with exceptional CPTs as accurately; however, several carboxamide candidates did perform as good as or better than DEET.

AB In previous studies on the American beautyberry (Callicarpa americana), it was demonstrated that callicarpenal and intermedeol were responsible for the arthropod repellent and feeding deterrent activity of this folk remedy. Both compounds showed significant bite-deterring activity against Aedes aegypti and Anopheles stephensi. Callicarpenal and intermedeol were evaluated in laboratory bioassays for repellent activity against host-seeking nymphs of the blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularis, a vector for Lyme disease, against Amblyomma americanum, a vector for erlichiosis, and Amblyomma cajennense, a vector for Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Callicarpenal and intermedeol were also evaluated for repellency using multiple choice digging bioassays against workers of red imported fire ants, Solenopsis invicta, black imported fire ants, Solenopsis richteri, and a hybrid of the two species. Chemical modifications were performed on callicarpenal in a preliminary structure activity relationship study against Ae. aegypti. In continuation with this study, callicarpenal diethyl amine and piperidine analogs were synthesized and evaluated against both Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus at 25 nmoles/cm(2). We also conducted studies to determine the optimal extraction conditions for obtaining callicarpenal from dry leaves, and these methods were used to evaluate the variation in the dry weight concentration of callicarpenal at various stages of plant development throughout a single growing season.

AB The in vitro laboratory bioassay is an important tool in tick repellent discovery and development, with a variety of bioassays used in recent years. Several factors, such as size and configuration of test surfaces and duration of tick exposure, can influence the outcome of bioassays. We tested two tick repellents, N,N-diethyl-3-methyl benzamide (deet) and (-)-isolongifolenone, in seven different bioassays or configurations. All bioassays used >= 4 concentrations of repellent and an ethanol control applied to filter paper against lone star tick nymphs, Amblyomma americanum (L.). Climbing bioassays included a 22 x 1 cm vertical filter paper strip and a 4 x 7 cm vertical filter paper strip plus four modifications of the basic 4 x 7 cm configuration. We used a moving object bioassay (MOB), in which a strip of filter paper treated with test solution was affixed to a rotating heated brass drum and ticks allowed to transfer to the paper. A horizontal bioassay in which ticks were confined between two filter paper discs that had one half treated with repellent was also used. For each bioassay, deet and (-)-isolongifolenone were similarly effective, but in some bioassays ticks were repelled by lower concentrations of both repellents than in other bioassays. The 22 x 1 cm strip proved impractical for regular bioassay use, but showed that a height of 819 cm and 6 min duration were optimal for climbing bioassays. When a loop of treated paper was added to untreated lower portion of the 4 x 7 cm filter paper, as alternative escape for ticks responding to repellents, more ticks were on the loop and lower untreated area of the strip at 10 min (end of the test) than were on the lower untreated area of the basic 4 x 7 cm strip. However, with the ethanol controls more ticks fell from 4 x 7 cm strips with loops than those without loops. Several important behaviors associated with host acquisition (contacting, transferring to and remaining on a moving surface) were recorded in the MOB, but we only found significant differences between treatment and control for the proportion of ticks that transferred to the filter paper and the length of time the ticks remained on paper. The petri dish bioassays lasted longer than other bioassays (2h compared to 10 min for the vertical filter bioassays) and allowed detection of a decline in repellency over time. Individual variation among ticks and fatigue (change in response) in repeatedly tested ticks were assessed in a vertical paper strip bioassay using deet. The responses of ticks tested twice on one day (morning and afternoon) did not differ between tests. However, continued repeated daily testing compromised results. A hiatus of about a week between tests allowed ticks to return to their initial response profiles.

AB The public generally have one desire when it comes to biting pests like mosquitoes and ticks: They don't want to be bitten. From an individual's standpoint, this sounds simple but from a technical standpoint the best result may require a complicated series of activities. The chemical industry has produced many products that help people avoid bites and it has often introduced them in ways that make the use of the product as straightforward, safe, and effective as possible. The best products have particular and specific roles in the process of controlling the pests. New development is likely to succeed when its designs fit logically into the larger process of pest control, often referred to as "integrated pest management" or IPM [(ref 1) Luckmann, W. H.; Metcalf, R. L. In Introduction to Insect Pest Management, 3rd ed.; Metcalf, R. L., Luckmann, W. H., Eds.; Environmental Science and Technology; John Wiley & Sons, Inc.: New York, 1994, pp 1-34].

AB Passive microwave soil moisture algorithms must account for vegetation attenuation of the signal in the retrieval process. One approach to accounting for vegetation is to use vegetation indices such as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) to estimate the vegetation optical depth. The passive microwave sensor platforms typically do not include sensors for providing this information and the data must be acquired independently. This presents challenges to data processing and integration and concerns about data availability. As an alternative to routine updating of the NDVI, it is possible to use a global vegetation index climatology. This climatology is based on the long term set of observations from the MODIS instrument (10 years). A technique was developed to process the NASA NDVI and Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) data base to produce a 10-day annual cycle (climatology) for each 1 km pixel covering the Earth's land surface. Since our focus was on soil moisture, the classification rules and flags took this into consideration. Techniques developed for processing the indices, development of flags, and expected utilization in soil moisture retrieval algorithms are described.

AB Leaf and canopy water contents provide information for leaf area index, vegetation biomass, and wildfire fuel moisture content. Hyperspectral retrievals of leaf and canopy water content are determined from the relationship of spectral reflectance and the specific absorption coefficient of water over the wavelength range of a water absorption feature. Vegetation water indices such as the Normalized Difference Water Index [NDWI = (R-850 - R-1240)/(R-850 + R-1240)] and Normalized Difference Infrared Index [NDII = (R-850 - R-1650)/(R-850 + R-1650)] may be calculated from multispectral sensors such as Landsat Thematic Mapper, SPOT HRG, or MODIS. Predicted water contents from hyperspectral data were much greater than measured water contents for both leaves and canopies. Furthermore, simulated spectral reflectances from the PROSPECT and SAIL models also had greater retrieved leaf and canopy water contents compared to the inputs. Used simply as an index correlated to leaf and canopy water contents, hyperspectral retrievals had better predictive capability than NDII or NDWI. Atmospheric correction algorithms estimate canopy water content in order to estimate the amount of water vapor. These results indicate that estimated canopy water contents should have a systematic bias, even though this bias does not affect retrieved surface reflectances from hyperspectral data. Field campaigns in a variety of vegetation functional types are needed to calibrate both hyperspectral retrievals and vegetation water indices.

AB This study analysed the errors associated with vegetation cover type and slope in a Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) derived digital elevation model (DEM) in a semiarid environment in southwest Idaho, USA. Reference data were collected over a range of vegetation cover types and slopes. Reference data were compared to bare-ground raster values and root mean square error (RMSE) and mean signed error (MSE) were used to quantify errors. Results indicate that vegetation cover type and slope have statistically significant effects on the accuracy of a LiDAR-derived bare-earth DEM. RMSE and MSE ranged from 0.072 to 0.220m and from -0.154to 0.017 m, respectively, with the largest errors associated with herbaceous cover and steep slopes. The lowest errors were associated with low sagebrush and low-slope environments. Although the RMSEs in this study were lower than those reported by others, further refinement of the accuracy of LiDAR systems may be needed for fine-scale vegetation and terrain applications in rangeland environments.

ID PRODUCTIVITY; UNOBSERVABLES; INDUSTRY; INPUTS
AB We build up from the plant level an "aggregate(d)" Solow residual by estimating every U.S. manufacturing plant's contribution to the change in aggregate final demand between 1976 and 1996. Our framework uses the Petrin and Levinsohn (2010) definition of aggregate productivity growth, which aggregates plant-level changes to changes in aggregate final demand in the presence of imperfect competition and other distortions/frictions. We decompose these contributions into plant-level resource reallocations and plant-level technical efficiency changes while allowing in the estimation for 459 different production technologies, one for each 4-digit SIC code. On average we find positive aggregate productivity growth of 2.2% in this sector during this period of declining share in U.S. GDP. We find that aggregate reallocation made a larger contribution to growth than aggregate technical efficiency. Our estimates of the contribution of reallocation range from 1.7% to 2.1% per year, while our estimates of the average contribution of aggregate technical efficiency growth range from 0.2% to 0.6% per year. In terms of cyclicality, the aggregate technical efficiency component has a standard deviation that is roughly from 50% to 100% larger than that of aggregate total reallocation, pointing to an important role for technical efficiency in macroeconomic fluctuations. Aggregate reallocation is negative in only 3 of the 20 years of our sample, suggesting that the movement of inputs to more highly valued activities on average plays a stabilizing role in manufacturing growth. Our results have implications for both the theoretical literature on growth and alternative indexes of aggregate productivity growth based only on technical efficiency. Published by Elsevier Inc.

AB Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) provides an attractive tool for high-throughput analysis of the functional effects of gene knockdown. Virus genomes are engineered to include fragments of target host genes, and the infected plant recognizes and silences the target genes as part of its viral defense mechanism. The consequences of gene inactivation, even of key metabolic, regulatory, or embryo-lethal genes, can thus be readily analyzed. A number of viral vectors have been developed for VIGS; one of the most frequently employed is based on tobacco rattle virus (TRV) due to its wide host range, efficiency, ease of application, and limited disease symptoms. TRV-based VIGS comprises two vectors. One (RNA2) includes a multiple cloning site into which fragments of target genes can be inserted. We have shown that the TRV/VIGS system can simultaneously silence as many as five independent genes. TRV is a mosaic-type virus, and silencing also occurs in a mosaic pattern. It is therefore desirable to have a reporter that can show where target genes have been silenced. The photobleaching induced by silencing phytoene desaturase (PDS) and the loss of purple pigmentation induced by silencing chalcone synthase (CHS) have successfully been used to indicate the location of coordinate silencing of other target genes. In this chapter, we outline our protocols for the use of VIGS for analysis of gene function, focusing particularly on the use of TRV with petunia and tomato.

AB MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in gene regulation in many plant tissues and organs during various developmental stages. Previous studies have suggested the importance of gene regulation by miRNA in seeds. Characterizing the expression of miRNAs and their target genes in dormant and germinating seeds helps to gain a better understanding of the regulatory role of miRNAs during seed dormancy and germination. This can be achieved by implementing a simple miRNA extraction method using fractionation with isopropanol and Northern blot analysis using nonradioactive miRNA probes. Functional analysis of miRNA target genes potentially associated with seed dormancy and germination can be examined using mutant seeds in which specific miRNAs are deregulated by introducing silent mutations in the miRNA target sites of these genes.

AB This study presented a preliminary investigation into the use of macro-scale Raman chemical imaging for the screening of dry milk powder for the presence of chemical contaminants. Melamine was mixed into dry milk at concentrations (w/w) of 0.2%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 5.0%, and 10.0% and images of the mixtures were analyzed by a spectral information divergence algorithm. Ammonium sulfate, dicyandiamide, and urea were each separately mixed into dry milk at concentrations of (w/w) of 0.5%, 1.0%, and 5.0%, and an algorithm based on self-modeling mixture analysis was applied to these sample images. The contaminants were successfully detected and the spatial distribution of the contaminants within the sample mixtures was visualized using these algorithms. Although further studies are necessary, macro-scale Raman chemical imaging shows promise for use in detecting contaminants in food ingredients and may also be useful for authentication of food ingredients.

AB Fruit fly infestation can be a serious problem in pickling cucumber production. In the United States and many other countries, there is zero tolerance for fruit flies in pickled products. Currently, processors rely on manual inspection to detect and remove fruit fly-infested cucumbers, which is labor intensive and also prone to error due to human fatigue and the difficulty of visually detecting infestation that is hidden inside the fruit. In this research, a laboratory hyperspectral imaging system was used to detect fruit fly-infested pickling cucumbers. Hyperspectral reflectance (450-740 nm) and transmittance (740-1,000 nm) images were acquired simultaneously for 329 normal (infestation free) and fruit fly-infested pickling cucumbers of three size classes with the mean diameters of 16.8, 22.1, and 27.6 mm, respectively. Mean spectra were extracted from the hyperspectral image of each cucumber, and they were then corrected for the fruit size effect using a diameter correction equation. Partial least squares discriminant analyses for the reflectance, transmittance and their combined data were performed for differentiating normal and infested pickling cucumbers. With reflectance mode, the overall classification accuracies for the three size classes and mixed class were between 82% and 88%, whereas transmittance achieved better classification results with the overall accuracies of 88%-93%. Integration of reflectance and transmittance did not result in noticeable improvements, compared to transmittance mode. Overall, the hyperspectral imaging system performed better than manual inspection, which had an overall accuracy of 75% and decreased significantly for smaller size cucumbers. This research demonstrated that hyperspectral imaging is potentially useful for detecting fruit fly-infested pickling cucumbers.

AB Several nondestructive technologies have been developed for assessing the firmness and soluble solids content (SSC) of apples. Each of these technologies has its merits and limitations in predicting the two quality parameters. With the concept of multi-sensor data fusion, different sensors would work synergistically and complementarily to improve the quality prediction of apples. In this research, four sensing systems (i.e., an acoustic sensor, a bioyield firmness tester, a miniature near-infrared (NIR) spectrometer, and an online hyperspectral scattering system) were evaluated and combined for nondestructive prediction of firmness and SSC of 'Jonagold' (JG), 'Golden Delicious' (GD), and `Delicious' (RD) apples. A total of 6,535 apples harvested in 2009 and 2010 were used for analysis. Each of the four sensors showed various degrees of ability to predict apple quality. Better predictions of the firmness and, in most cases, of the SSC were obtained using sensors fusion than using individual sensors, as measured by number of latent variables, correlation coefficient, and standard error of prediction (SEP). Results obtained from the two harvest seasons with the multi-sensor fusion approach were quite consistent, confirming the validity and robustness of the proposed approach. The SEPs for firmness measurement of JG, GD and RD using the best combination of two-sensor data were reduced by 13.3, 19.7 and 7.9% for the 2009 data and 16.0, 12.6 and 4.7% for the 2010 data; and using all four-sensor data by 21.8, 25.6 and 13.6% in 2009, and 14.9, 21.9, and 7.9% in 2010, respectively. For SSC prediction, using the two-sensor data (i.e., NIR and scattering) improved predictions for JG, GD and RD apples harvested in 2009, with their SEP values being reduced by 10.4, 6.6 and 6.8%, respectively. This research demonstrated that the fused systems provided more complete complementary information and, thus, were more powerful than individual sensors in prediction of apple quality.

AB Hyperspectral microscope imaging (HMI) method which provides both spatial and spectral information can be effective for foodborne pathogen detection. The AOTF-based hyperspectral microscope imaging method can be used to characterize spectral properties of biofilm formed by Salmonella enteritidis as well as Escherichia coli. The intensity of spectral imagery and the pattern of spectral distribution varied with system parameters (integration time and gain) of HMI system. The preliminary results demonstrated determination of optimum parameter values of HMI system and the integration time must be no more than 250 ms for quality image acquisition from biofilm formed by S. enteritidis. Among the contiguous spectral imagery between 450 and 800 nm, the intensity of spectral images at 498, 522, 550 and 594 nm were distinctive for biofilm; whereas, the intensity of spectral images at 546 nm was distinctive for E. coli. For more accurate comparison of intensity from spectral images, a calibration protocol, using neutral density filters and multiple exposures, need to be developed to standardize image acquisition. For the identification or classification of unknown food pathogen samples, ground truth regions-of-interest pixels need to be selected for "spectrally pure fingerprints" for the Salmonella and E. coli species.

AB Lycopene is a major carotenoid in tomatoes and its content varies considerably during postharvest ripening. Hence evaluating lycopene changes can be used to monitor the ripening of tomatoes. Raman chemical imaging technique is promising for mapping constituents of interest in complex food matrices. In this study, a benchtop point-scanning Raman chemical imaging system was developed to evaluate lycopene content in tomatoes at different maturity stages. The system consists of a 785 nm laser, a fiber optic probe, a dispersive imaging spectrometer, a spectroscopic CCD camera, and a two-axis positioning table. Tomato samples at different ripeness stages (i.e., green, breaker, turning, pink, light red, and red) were selected and cut before imaging. Hyperspectral Raman images were acquired from cross sections of the fruits in the wavenumber range of 200 to 2500 cm(-1) with a spatial resolution of 1 mm. The Raman spectrum of pure lycopene was measured as reference for spectral matching. A polynomial curve-fitting method was used to correct for the underlying fluorescence background in the Raman spectra of the tomatoes. A hyperspectral image classification method was developed based on spectral information divergence to identify lycopene in the tomatoes. Raman chemical images were created to visualize quantity and spatial distribution of the lycopene at different ripeness stages. The lycopene patterns revealed the mechanism of lycopene generation during the postharvest development of the tomatoes. The method and findings of this study form a basis for the future development of a Raman-based nondestructive approach for monitoring internal maturity of the tomatoes.

AB Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) can detect the pathogen in rapid and accurate. In SERS weak Raman scattering signals are enhanced by many orders of magnitude. In this study silver metal with biopolymer was used. Silver encapsulated biopolymer polyvinyl alcohol nano-colloid was prepared and deposited on stainless steel plate. This was used as metal substrate for SERS. Salmonella typhimurium a common food pathogen was selected for this study. Salmonella typhimurium bacteria cells were prepared in different concentrations in cfu/mL. Small amount of these cells were loaded on the metal substrate individually, scanned and spectra were recorded using confocal Raman microscope. The cells were exposed to laser diode at 785 nm excitation and object 50x was used to focus the laser light on the sample. Raman shifts were obtained from 400 to 2400 cm(-1). Multivariate data analysis was carried to predict the concentration of unknown sample using its spectra. Concentration prediction gave an R-2 of 0.93 and standard error of prediction of 0.21. The results showed that it could be possible to find out the Salmonella cells present in a low concentration in food samples using SERS.

AB The physical and mechanical properties of baby spinach were investigated, including density, Young's modulus, fracture strength, and friction coefficient. The average apparent density of baby spinach leaves was 0.5666 g/mm(3). The tensile tests were performed using parallel, perpendicular, and diagonal directions with respect to the midrib of each leaf. The test results showed that the mechanical properties of spinach are anisotropic. For the parallel, diagonal, and perpendicular test directions, the average values for the Young's modulus values were found to be 2.137MPa, 1.0841 MPa, and 0.3914 MPa, respectively, and the average fracture strength values were 0.2429 MPa, 0.1396 MPa, and 0.1113 MPa, respectively. The static and kinetic friction coefficient between the baby spinach and conveyor belt were researched, whose test results showed that the average coefficients of kinetic and maximum static friction between the adaxial (front side) spinach leaf surface and conveyor belt were 1.2737 and 1.3635, respectively, and between the abaxial (back side) spinach leaf surface and conveyor belt were 1.1780 and 1.2451 respectively. These works provide the basis for future development of a whole-surface online imaging inspection system that can be used by the commercial vegetable processing industry to reduce food safety risks.

AB This research developed and evaluated the multispectral algorithms derived from hyperspectral line-scan fluorescence imaging under violet LED excitation for detection of fecal contamination on Golden Delicious apples. The algorithms utilized the fluorescence intensities at four wavebands, 680 nm, 684 nm, 720 nm, and 780 nm, for computation of simple functions for effective detection of contamination spots created on the apple surfaces using four concentrations of aqueous fecal dilutions. The algorithms detected more than 99% of the fecal spots. The effective detection of feces showed that a simple multispectral fluorescence imaging algorithm based on violet LED excitation may be appropriate to detect fecal contamination on fast-speed apple processing lines.

AB Shell eggs with microcracks are often undetected during egg grading processes. In the past, a modified pressure imaging system was developed to detect eggs with microcracks without adversely affecting the quality of normal intact eggs. The basic idea of the modified pressure imaging system was to apply a short burst of vacuum within a transparent chamber in order to cause a momentary and forced opening in the egg shell with a crack and thus to utilize the changes in image intensities during this process. The intensity changes from dark to bright in the shell surface were recorded by a high-resolution digital camera and processed by an image ratio technique. The performance of the imaging system, however, was sometimes compromised by false readings due to motion of intact eggs relative to the camera. The uneven movement of the lid hinged on the chamber was considered as the main cause of motion errors. In this paper, a machine vision technique to compensate the motion errors was developed to reduce the false detection readings caused by motion of intact eggs. The developed motion compensation algorithm is based on motion estimation of individual eggs.

AB Accurate measurement of moisture content is a prime requirement in hydrological, geophysical and biogeochemical research as well as for material characterization and process control. Within these areas, accurate measurements of the surface area and bound water content is becoming increasingly important for providing answers to many fundamental questions ranging from characterization of cotton fiber maturity, to accurate characterization of soil water content in soil water conservation research to bio-plant water utilization to chemical reactions and diffusions of ionic species across membranes in cells as well as in the dense suspensions that occur in surface films. One promising technique to address the increasing demands for higher accuracy water content measurements is utilization of electrical permittivity characterization of materials. This technique has enjoyed a strong following in the soil-science and geological community through measurements of apparent permittivity via time-domain-reflectometry (TDR) as well in many process control applications. Recent research however, is indicating a need to increase the accuracy beyond that available from traditional TDR. The most logical pathway then becomes a transition from TDR based measurements to network analyzer measurements of absolute permittivity that will remove the adverse effects that high surface area soils and conductivity impart onto the measurements of apparent permittivity in traditional TDR applications.
   This research examines an observed experimental error for the coaxial probe, from which the modern TDR probe originated, which is hypothesized to be due to fringe capacitance. The research provides an experimental and theoretical basis for the cause of the error and provides a technique by which to correct the system to remove this source of error. To test this theory, a Poisson model of a coaxial cell was formulated to calculate the effective theoretical extra length caused by the fringe capacitance which is then used to correct the experimental results such that experimental measurements utilizing differing coaxial cell diameters and probe lengths, upon correction with the Poisson model derived correction factor, all produce the same results thereby lending support and for an augmented measurement technique for measurement of absolute permittivity.

AB The research and development of new electronic-nose applications in the biomedical field has accelerated at a phenomenal rate over the past 25 years. Many innovative e-nose technologies have provided solutions and applications to a wide variety of complex biomedical and healthcare problems. The purposes of this review are to present a comprehensive analysis of past and recent biomedical research findings and developments of electronic-nose sensor technologies, and to identify current and future potential e-nose applications that will continue to advance the effectiveness and efficiency of biomedical treatments and healthcare services for many years. An abundance of electronic-nose applications has been developed for a variety of healthcare sectors including diagnostics, immunology, pathology, patient recovery, pharmacology, physical therapy, physiology, preventative medicine, remote healthcare, and wound and graft healing. Specific biomedical e-nose applications range from uses in biochemical testing, blood-compatibility evaluations, disease diagnoses, and drug delivery to monitoring of metabolic levels, organ dysfunctions, and patient conditions through telemedicine. This paper summarizes the major electronic-nose technologies developed for healthcare and biomedical applications since the late 1980s when electronic aroma detection technologies were first recognized to be potentially useful in providing effective solutions to problems in the healthcare industry.

AB Proinflammatory cytokines are primary mediators of bone loss in estrogen deficiency. This study determined whether alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT), a multifunctional protein with proteinase inhibitor and anti-inflammatory activities, mitigates bone loss induced by estrogen deficiency. Mice were either sham-operated or ovariectomized and injected with either AAT or phosphate buffered saline (PBS). Ovariectomy resulted in decreased wet uterus weight, significant bone loss, increased serum leptin concentrations, and higher body weight compared to sham. AAT injection increased tibial trabecular bone volume/total volume and trabecular thickness compared to PBS injection in ovariectomized mice. Ovariectomized mice with AAT treatment had higher uterus weight, lower serum osteocalcin levels, fewer bone marrow tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive osteoclasts, and less expression of calcitonin receptor in bone than that in PBS-injected mice. These data demonstrate that AAT mitigates ovariectomy-induced bone loss in mice possibly through inhibiting osteoclast activity and bone resorption.

AB This study uses symbolic interactionism as a basis for understanding the salience and fundamental meanings of wildland fire to wildland-urban interface (WUI) residents. It contributes to an understanding of how WUI residents actually view wildland fire, its role in forest ecosystems, and its attendant risks for human settlements. Three focus groups were conducted with residents of the wildland-urban interface near Spokane, Washington. Results indicate a high level of salience of wildland fire to participants' daily lives and significant concern about the risk of fire events. It also revealed strikingly different frames of reference for fires burning in the WUI or in areas away from human settlement. The study concludes with considerations for building shared meanings of wildland fire among WUI residents and managers.

AB Several factors have hindered effective use of information and resources related to food safety due to inconsistency among semantically heterogeneous data resources, lack of knowledge on profiling of food-borne pathogens, and knowledge gaps among research communities, government risk assessors/managers, and end-users of the information. This paper discusses technical aspects in the establishment of a comprehensive food safety information system consisting of the following steps: (a) computational collection and compiling publicly available information, including published pathogen genomic, proteomic, and metabolomic data; (b) development of ontology libraries on food-borne pathogens and design automatic algorithms with formal inference and fuzzy and probabilistic reasoning to address the consistency and accuracy of distributed information resources (e.g., Pulse Net, Food Net, Outbreak Net, PubMed, NCBI, EMBL, and other online genetic databases and information); (c) integration of collected pathogen profiling data, Foodrisk.org (http://www.foodrisk.org), PMP, Combase, and other relevant information into a user-friendly, searchable, "homogeneous" information system available to scientists in academia, the food industry, and government agencies; and (d) development of a computational model in semantic web for greater adaptability and robustness.

ID ORGANIC-MATTER; QUALITY INDICATORS; MANAGEMENT; TILLAGE; CARBON
AB Soil aggregate stability is a frequently used indicator of soil quality, but there is no standard methodology for assessing this indicator. Current methods generally measure only a portion of the soil or use either dry-sieved or wet-sieved aggregates. Our objective was to develop a whole soil stability index (WSSI) by combining data from dry aggregate size distribution and water-stable aggregation along with a 'quality' constant for each aggregate size class. The quality constant was based on the impact of aggregate size on soil quality indicators. Soil quality indicators can be loosely defined as those soil properties and processes that have the greatest sensitivity to changes in soil function. The WSSI was hypothesized to have a better relationship to the impacts of aboveground management than other soil aggregation indices such as a mean weight diameter (MWD), geometric mean diameter (GIVID), and the normalized stability index (NSI). Soil samples used in this study were collected from sites established on the same or similar soil types at the Northern Great Plains Research Laboratory in Mandan, ND. By utilizing dry aggregate size distribution, water-stable aggregation, and the quality constant, the WSSI detected differences in soil quality due to management (such as amount of disturbance, plant cover, and crop rotation) with the highest values occurring for the undisturbed, native range and the lowest values for conventional tillage, fallow treatments. The WSSI had the best relationship with management and is recommended as a standard measurement for soil aggregation. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Tillage erosion has been recognized as an important factor in redistribution of soil over time and in the development of morphological changes within agricultural fields. Field borders, fences, and vegetated strips that interrupt soil fluxes lead to the creation of topographic discontinuities or lynchets. When tillage tools that preferentially throw soil to one side are used repeatedly to move soil in one direction, rather than alternating with each pass, they create berms at the receiving side of the tilled domain and a "dead furrow" or channel at the contributing side. However, even tillage implements that are symmetrical in throwing soil equally in both lateral directions on flat surfaces may throw some soil beyond the implement width and so contribute to soil berms formation just beyond the tilled zone that cart affect water flow paths. We developed a two-dimensional Tillage Erosion and Landscape Evolution Model that allows complex internal boundaries to be defined within the simulation domain. In this paper we develop and demonstrate techniques and tools to allow prediction of the formation of edge-of-field berms by defining alternative boundary conditions. The derivation and assumptions of the model are presented and then it is applied and compared to survey results from two field studies: one an experimental field in Coffeeville, Mississippi, where grass hedges were planted close to field elevation contours to evaluate their effectiveness as an erosion control measure and were monitored over a 16-year period; and the other a set of 0.1 ha plots located near Holly Springs, MS where the effect of edge-of-field berm formation on runoff partitioning was evaluated during an 8-year study. Results demonstrate the ability of the model to correctly reproduce the location and magnitude of soil loss and accumulation. At Coffeeville, erosion averaging over 20 cm in the downslope side of each grass hedge and deposition taking place near the slope ends led to the formation of lynchets up to 0.8 m high, and the average slope steepness in the cropped areas between hedges decreased from an average of 7.2% in 1993 to about 3.7% in 2009. In Holly Springs, repeated tillage conducted next to grass hedges planted along the hillslope bottoms led to the formation of berms with average height of 13 cm, which may significantly alter field-scale hydrological, erosion, and sediment transport processes.

AB Haemophilus parasuis is a member of the family Pasteurellaceae and is the etiologic agent of Glasser's disease in pigs, a systemic syndrome associated with only a subset of isolates. The genetic basis for virulence and systemic spread of particular H. parasuis isolates is currently unknown. Strain 29755 is an invasive isolate that has long been used in the study of Glasser's disease. Accordingly, the genome sequence of strain 29755 is of considerable importance to investigators endeavoring to understand the molecular pathogenesis of H. parasuis. Here we describe the features of the 2,224,137 bp draft genome sequence of strain 29755 generated from 454-FLX pyrosequencing. These data comprise the first publicly available genome sequence for this bacterium.

AB Stream restoration is a general term used for the wide range of actions undertaken to improve the geomorphic and ecologic function, structure, and integrity of river corridors. While the practice of stream restoration is not new to geomorphic, ecologic, or engineering communities, the number of restoration activities and their associated costs has increased dramatically over the last few decades because of government policies intended to protect and restore water quality and aquatic species and their habitats. The goals and objectives, tools and technologies, approaches and applications, and assessment and monitoring standards promoted and employed in stream restoration are rapidly evolving in response to this increased focus and funding. Because technology transfer is an important activity in scientific discourse, this volume provides a comprehensive, integrative, and interdisciplinary synthesis of process-based approaches, tools, and techniques currently used in stream restoration, as well as their philosophical and conceptual foundations. This introductory paper provides a brief summary of the history and evolving science of stream restoration and emerging areas relevant to the stream restoration community.

AB The importance of floodplain aquatic habitats that are seasonally or periodically connected to the main channel (backwaters) within lowland riverine ecosystems is well established. However, backwaters are becoming rare as development is transforming floodplain landscapes. Therefore, rehabilitation, protection, and management of riverine backwaters are becoming increasingly common, with annual expenditures in the millions of dollars. Even with the increasing number of projects, general criteria for selecting restoration goals and evaluating project outcomes are lacking. To address this need, Kondolf et al. (2006) proposed an approach for evaluating river restorations that is based on assigning a position to the system in a four-dimensional space that represents hydrologic temporal variability on one axis and connectivity in the three spatial dimensions on the remaining three axes. Use of the Kondolf approach for evaluating restoration of a backwater adjacent to a medium-sized river in northern Mississippi is presented as a case study, in which nearby degraded and less impacted backwaters were used as references. The restoration project resulted in a reduction in main-channel connectivity and lower levels of variability for the treated backwater. Additional responses to treatment included increased summer water depth, moderation of severe diurnal water quality fluctuations, and reductions in concentrations of solids, nutrients, and chlorophyll a. Fish species richness, numbers, and biomass were unchanged following rehabilitation, but trophic structure shifted away from omnivorous species and toward predators. Ecological services provided by floodplain riverine backwaters may be enhanced by modest management measures, but regaining and maintaining connectivity with adjacent ecological functional patches remains difficult.

AB The Bank Stability and Toe Erosion Model (BSTEM) is a spreadsheet tool used to simulate stream bank erosion in a mechanistic framework. It has been successfully used in a range of alluvial environments in both static mode to simulate bank stability conditions and design of stream bank stabilization measures and iteratively over a series of hydrographs to evaluate surficial, hydraulic erosion, bank failure frequency, and the volume of sediment eroded from a bank over a given time period. In combination with the submodel RipRoot, reinforcing effects of riparian vegetation can be quantified and included in analysis of mitigation strategies. The model is shown to be very useful in testing the effect of potential mitigation measures that might be used to reduce the frequency of bank instability and decrease sediment loadings from stream banks. Results of iterative BSTEM analysis are used to extrapolate volumes of bank-derived sediment from individual sites to reaches when used with observations of the "percent reach failing." Results show that contributions of suspended sediment from stream banks can vary considerably, ranging from 10% in the predominantly low-gradient, agricultural watershed of the Big Sioux River, South Dakota, to more than 50% in two steep, forested watersheds of the Lake Tahoe Basin, California. Modeling of stream bank mitigation strategies shows that toe protection added to eroding stream banks can reduce overall volumes of eroded sediment up to 85%-100%, notwithstanding, that hydraulic erosion of the toe in this case makes up only 15%-20% of total bank erosion. BSTEM is available to the public free of charge at http://www.ars.usda.gov/Research/docs.htm?docid=5044.

AB The series of biennial U.S. National Water Quality Inventory surveys show no reduction in the percentage of degraded miles of streams since the early 1990s despite an exponential increase in river restoration projects to improve water quality, enhance in-stream habitat, and manage the riparian zone. This may suggest that many river restoration projects fail to achieve their objectives and could therefore benefit from using proven models of stream and riparian processes to guide restoration design and to evaluate indicators of ecological integrity. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has developed two such models: the channel evolution computer model CONCEPTS and the riparian ecosystem model REMM. CONCEPTS is a robust computational model for simulating the long-term evolution of incised and restored or rehabilitated stream corridors. REMM is a computational model for evaluating management decisions to control nonpoint source pollution in the riparian zone. These models have been integrated to evaluate the impact of in-stream, edge-of-field, and riparian conservation measures on stream morphology and water quality. This chapter presents how in-stream restoration measures are represented in CONCEPTS. Further, the capabilities of CONCEPTS and REMM are demonstrated through model applications that evaluate the long-term stability of newly constructed channels, the impact of bank protection on downstream sediment loads and streambed composition, and the effectiveness of woody and herbaceous riparian buffers in controlling stream bank erosion of an incised stream.

AB A raw cotton, mechanically pre-cleaned with a proprietary technology at the gin, was extensively tested and then processed into hydroentangled nonwoven fabrics, using different hydroentangling process conditions mostly the hydraulic pressure or energy that impacted the fabric formation. The results of several pilot plant trials conducted on commercial-grade machinery and equipment have revealed that the pre-cleaned, ginned cotton indeed is very clean and may not require the traditional fiber cleaning at the user site, say, a nonwovens manufacturing entity. Further, the raw cotton, which almost always is naturally hydrophobic (water repellant), becomes hydrophilic (wet-able and absorbent) without the traditional and essential chemical scouring process that is costly, time-consuming and eco-sensitive. Hence, based on the research presented here, greige/raw cotton may be used in production of eco-safe and sustainable nonwoven fabrics that, because of their biodegradable cotton content, will be easy to dispose of for a healthy product life cycle.

AB This chapter provides a synthesis of information on potential supply of forest biomass given needs for sustainable development of forestry. Sustainability includes maintenance of water supply, biodiversity, and carbon storage as well as timber products, community development, and recreation. Biomass removals can reduce fire hazard and insect and disease attack, restore forest composition and structure, enhance forest growth, provide revenue for treatments and communities, and offset greenhouse gas emissions. Biological limitations vary by forest condition, ownership, and how stands are regenerated. Limitations maintain water supply, soil nutrients, and biodiversity. There are economic limitations because costs for removals may exceed revenue. One analysis suggests U.S. forest-based biomass supply could be 45 million dry tons per year or more, depending on biomass price. Social targets and limitations are given in federal and state legislation. These include a federal cellulosic fuel target with biomass source restrictions, state-level renewable energy portfolio standards, and state-level forest practice guidelines. Understanding of biological and economic limitations and benefits is developing, particularly at local levels. Social targets and limitations could change. Increases in fossil fuel prices would accelerate efforts to develop understanding of biological limitations and could result in changes to social and economic targets and limitations.

AB Short rotation woody crops (SRWCs) are ideal for woody biomass production and management systems because they are renewable energy feedstocks for biofuels, bioenergy, and bioproducts that can be strategically placed in the landscape to conserve soil and water, recycle nutrients, and sequester carbon. This chapter is a synthesis of the regional implications of producing four genera of short rotation energy crops as feedstocks for fuels, chemicals, and fibers set in the rich history of research and development of these purpose-grown trees in the United States. The four genera include: Populus (cottonwoods, poplars, aspens), Salix (willows), Pinus (southern pines), and Eucalyptus (eucalypts). Key aspects of the production systems are discussed, including tree biology, genetics and tree improvement, and silvicultural management. The availability of short rotation woody biomass is evaluated on the basis of maintaining sustainability at multiple scales. Current efforts to maximize production are described. Overall, sustainable production of fuels, chemicals, and fibers from woody biomass depends on a combination of feedstocks from both forests and plantations; the importance of dedicated SRWC feedstock production systems is highlighted.

AB Physical pretreatment of woody biomass or wood size reduction is a prerequisite step for further chemical or biochemical processing in forest biorefinery. However, wood size reduction is very energy intensive which differentiates woody biomass from herbaceous biomass for biorefinery. This chapter discusses several critical issues related to wood size reduction: (1) factors affecting mechanical energy consumption and the post-pretreatment wood size-reduction approach to significantly reduce energy consumption, (2) biomass substrate specific surface area for substrate size characterization and the wet imaging technique for woody substrate size/specific surface measurements, (3) the effect of biomass substrate size/specific surface on enzymatic cellulose hydrolysis, and (4) the concept of substrate "surface productivity" for the determination of optimal degree of size reduction and energy efficient wood size reduction.

AB There is an emerging consensus that the intent of most species concepts is to identify evolutionarily distinct lineages. However, the criteria used to identify lineages differ among concepts depending on the perceived importance of various attributes of evolving populations. We have examined five different species criteria to ask whether the three taxonomic varieties of Humulus lupulus (hops) native to North America are distinct lineages. Three criteria (monophyly, absence of genetic intermediates, and diagnosability) focus on evolutionary patterns and two (intrinsic reproductive isolation and niche specialization) consider evolutionary processes. Phylogenetic analysis of amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) data under a relaxed molecular clock, a stochastic Dollo substitution model, and parsimony identified all varieties as monophyletic, thus they satisfy the monophyly criterion for species delimitation. Principal coordinate analysis and a Bayesian assignment procedure revealed deep genetic subdivisions and little admixture between varieties, indicating an absence of genetic intermediates and compliance with the genotypic cluster species criterion. Diagnostic morphological and AFLP characters were found for all varieties, thus they meet the diagnosability criterion. Natural history information suggests that reproductive isolating barriers may have evolved in var. pubescens, potentially qualifying it as a species under a criterion of intrinsic reproductive isolation. Environmental niche modeling showed that the preferred habitat of var. neomexicanus is climatically unique, suggesting niche specialization and thus compliance with an ecological species criterion. Isolation by distance coupled with imperfect sampling can lead to erroneous lineage identification using some species criteria. Compliance with complementary pattern-and process-oriented criteria provides powerful corroboration for a species hypothesis and mitigates the necessity for comprehensive sampling of the entire species range, a practical impossibility in many systems. We hypothesize that var. pubescens maintains its genetic identity, despite substantial niche overlap with var. lupuloides, via the evolution of partial reproductive isolating mechanisms. Variety neomexicanus, conversely, will likely persist as a distinct lineage, regardless of limited gene flow with vars. lupuloides and pubescens because of ecological isolation-adaptation to the unique conditions of the Rocky Mountain cordillera. Thus, we support recognition of vars. neomexicanus and pubescens as species, but delay making a recommendation for var. lupuloides until sampling of genetic variation is complete or a stable biological process can be identified to explain its observed genetic divergence.

AB Internal heat necrosis (IHN) is a physiological disorder of potato tubers. We developed a linkage map of tetraploid potato using AFLP and SSR markers, and mapped QTL for mean severity and percent incidence of IHN. Phenotypic data indicated that the distribution of IHN is skewed toward resistance. Late foliage maturity was slightly but significantly correlated with increased IHN symptoms. The linkage map for 'Atlantic', the IHN-susceptible parent, covered 1034.4 cM and included 13 linkage groups, and the map for B1829-5, the IHN-resistant parent, covered 940.2 cM and contained 14 linkage groups. QTL for increased resistance to IHN were located on chromosomes IV, V, and groups VII and X of 'Atlantic', and on group VII of B1829-5 in at least 2 of 3 years. The QTL explained between 4.5 and 29.4% of the variation for mean severity, and from 3.7 to 14.5% of the variation for percent incidence. Most QTL detected were dominant, and associated with decreased IHN symptoms. One SSR and 13 AFLP markers that were linked to IHN were tested in a second population. One AFLP marker was associated with decreased symptoms in both populations. The SSR marker was not associated with IHN in the second population, but was closely linked in repulsion to another marker that was associated with IHN, and had the same (negative) effect on the trait as the SSR marker did in the first population. The correlation between maturity and IHN may be partially explained by the presence of markers on chromosome V that are linked to both traits. This research represents the first molecular genetic research of IHN in potato.

AB Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, is one of the most destructive diseases of wheat worldwide. Growing resistant cultivars is the most effective approach to control the disease, but only a few genes confer effective all-stage resistance against the current populations of the pathogen worldwide. It is urgent to identify new genes for diversifying sources of resistance genes and for pyramiding genes for different types of resistance in order to achieve high levels of durable resistance for sustainable control of stripe rust. The common spring wheat genotype 'PI 181434', originally from Afghanistan, was resistant in all greenhouse and field tests in our previous studies. To identify the resistance gene(s) PI 181434 was crossed with susceptible genotype 'Avocet Susceptible'. Adult plants of 103 F(2) progeny were tested in the field under the natural infection of P. striiformis f. sp. tritici. Seedlings of the parents, F(2) and F(3) were tested with races PST-100 and PST-127 of the pathogen under controlled greenhouse conditions. The genetic study showed that PI 181434 has a single dominant gene conferring all-stage resistance. Resistance gene analog polymorphism (RGAP) and simple sequence repeat (SSR) techniques were used to identify molecular markers linked to the gene. A linkage map of 8 RGAP and 2 SSR markers was constructed for the gene using data from the 103 F(2) plants and their derived F(3) lines tested in the greenhouse. Amplification of the complete set of nulli-tetrasomic lines and selected ditelosomic lines of Chinese Spring with an RGAP marker and the two SSR markers mapped the gene on the long arm of chromosome 3D. Because it is the first gene for stripe rust resistance mapped on chromosome 3DL and different from all previously named Yr genes, the gene in PI 181434 was designated Yr45. Polymorphism rates of the two closest flanking markers, Xwgp115 and Xwgp118, in 45 wheat genotypes were 73.3 and 82.2%, respectively. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified in the eight wheat genotypes sharing both flanking markers. The RGAP markers and potential SNP markers should be useful in incorporating the gene into wheat cultivars and in pyramiding it with other genes for durable resistance.

AB Hepcidin is the main regulator of systemic iron homeostasis and is primarily produced by the liver but is also expressed, at the mRNA-level, in periphery tissues including the subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue. Obesity is associated with elevated hepcidin concentrations and iron depletion suggesting that the exaggerated fat mass in obesity could contribute significantly to circulating hepcidin levels consequently altering iron homeostasis. The objective of this study was to determine if abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue (AbScAT) releases hepcidin in vivo and if release is modified by obesity. Arterio-venous differences in concentrations of hepcidin were measured across AbScAT in 9 obese and 9 lean adults. Overall (n = 18), mean plasma hepcidin concentrations were significantly higher in arterialized compared to AbScAT venous samples [mean difference (arterialized-AbScAT venous plasma hepcidin) = 4.9 +/- 9.6 ng/mL, P = 0.04]. Net regional release was not calculated because mean venous plasma hepcidin concentrations were lower than mean arterialized concentrations indicating no net release. Significant correlations between AbScAT venous and arterialized plasma hepcidin concentrations with anthropometric variables were not observed. Findings from this vein drainage study suggest there is no net release of hepcidin from the AbScAT depot and thereby no ability to signal systemically, even in obesity.

TI Water hemlock poisoning in cattle: Ingestion of immature Cicuta maculata
   seed as the probable cause

ID DROPWORT
AB It is well understood that water hemlock tubers are highly toxic to animals and to humans. However, this is the first time that immature seed from (Cicuta maculata) has been implicated in livestock poisoning. Nine mature Hereford cows from a herd of 81 died in northwestern Utah after ingesting immature seed heads of water hemlock (Cicuta maculata) in late summer. No obvious signs of poisoning were reported as all nine were found dead near the banks of the stream where water hemlock was found. Upon discovery of the dead cows, the remaining 72 cows were immediately removed from the pasture and no further losses occurred. Field necropsy of 3 of the dead cows and follow-up serology and histopathological examination of selected tissues did not identify any bacterial or viral causes. History of ingestion of large quantities of water hemlock seed, the acute nature of the deaths, chemical comparison of seed with toxic tubers and follow-up mouse bioassay testing supported the diagnosis of water hemlock poisoning. Seed heads collected from the neighboring pasture upstream and across the fence from the poisoned cattle and tubers collected from grazed plants were chemically analyzed and found to contain cicutoxin, and high levels of two cicutol-like derivatives (cicutol-#1 and #2) as well as other unidentified polyacetylene compounds. Seeds and tubers from suspected plants were semi-quantified and compared to archive samples of highly toxic tubers used in previous experiments. The immature hemlock seed contained less cicutoxin (0.01 times), but 9.5 and 22.5 times more cicutol-#1 and cicutol-#2 respectively, compared to the archive sample. Tubers from the grazed plants contained 4.6 times more cicutoxin and 9.8 and 18.8 times more cicutol-#1 and cicutol-#2 respectively, compared to the archive sample. Mouse bioassays with water extracts of immature seed and tubers from grazed plants demonstrated both were highly toxic and of greater toxicity when compared to archived sample.

AB We developed a cotton cotyledonary leaf bioassay to test the phytotoxicity of fusaric acid (5-butylpicolinic acid), picolinic acid and related analogs. The compounds were dissolved in aqueous Tween 80, and 20 mu L of the test solution was placed at three positions on the leaf, and a needle was used to puncture the leaf through each drop; the results were evaluated after 48 h. In contrast to previous studies, we found the carboxylic acid group is essential for phytotoxicity. Nicotinic acid was considerably less phytotoxic than picolinic acid and conversion of picolinic acid to the amide or N-oxide decreased phytotoxicity. Increasing the alkyl chain length at the 5-position on picolinic acid from two up to five carbons atoms increased phytotoxicity. Fusaric acid methyl ester, the most phytotoxic compound tested, is a naturally occurring compound; as such it has potential as a herbicide in organic farming. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Anticipated increases in the frequency and severity of wildfire may threaten the persistence of native salmonid populations in headwater streams in western North America. This study used extensive pre- and postfire data to assess whether wildfire leads to hypothesized declines in native westslope cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarkii lewisi and bull trout Salvelinus confluentus populations along with increases in the prevalence and abundance of nonnative brook trout S. fontinalis. Postfire cutthroat trout density was negatively correlated with the proportion of basin area that burned at moderate to high severity, but the declines in density after fires were less pronounced for bull trout and brook trout. Recovery of cutthroat trout was generally rapid in severely affected reaches. Contrary to expectation, there was no evidence of a marked increase in abundance or invasion by brook trout after wildfire. Brook trout exhibited the most severe declines in debris flow-affected reaches among all species and exhibited less recovery in severely burned reaches than did cutthroat trout. Increased stream temperature was the most significant habitat change that followed wildfire, the mean maximum water temperature during summer months increasing by 2-6 degrees C in severely burned reaches. In contrast, burned area percentage was unrelated to large woody debris density, the percentage of surface fines, substrate diversity, or the percentage of pool habitat. The characteristically high variability in fish and habitat responses to wildfire will continue to pose a challenge for the understanding and management of fire in aquatic ecosystems.

TI Statistical Significance of Freeze-Thaw Related Factors on Cumulative
   Damage to Flexible Pavements
SO TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH RECORD
LA English
DT Article
AB Although it is widely recognized that trafficking on thaw-weakened pavement structures significantly accelerates pavement failure in seasonal frost areas, contributions of specific freeze season characteristics, such as freeze season length, thaw depth, and depth to water table, are not as readily identified or quantified. To identify statistically significant contributing factors or combinations of factors, computer simulations were conducted with a seasonal mechanistic design and evaluation procedure and 21 years of environmental data from two original flexible pavement test cells at the Minnesota Road Research Project. Statistical analyses were conducted on various winter season characteristics to determine which characteristics or explanatory variables were statistically significant contributors to, or indicators of, cumulative pavement damage. Analyses suggest damage could generally be modeled as a function of one, two, or three explanatory variables. Thaw depth, or a variation thereof, was a significant explanatory variable for at least one regression equation corresponding to each damage model in both test cells evaluated. The combination of the surface freezing season length and corresponding average pavement surface temperature appears significant for fatigue cracking for the two test cells analyzed. Maximum thaw depth and the combination of surface freezing season length and air freezing index appear significant with regard to rutting, according to Asphalt Institute and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers criteria. Several additional characteristics of the winter season have been identified for inclusion in similar analyses to be conducted with the Enhanced Integrated Climatic Model and nine U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service New Hampshire Department of Transportation pavement test sections. Such characteristics, once better defined, could provide useful information for design or evaluation purposes.

AB A small subset of basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors called PIFs (phytochrome-interacting factors) act to repress seed germination, promote seedling skotomorphogenesis and promote shade-avoidance through regulated expression of over a thousand genes. Light-activated phytochrome molecules directly reverse these activities by inducing rapid degradation of the PIF proteins. Here, we review recent advances in dissecting this signaling pathway and examine emerging evidence that indicates that other pathways also converge to regulate PIF activity, including the gibberellin pathway, the circadian clock and high temperature. Thus PIFs have broader roles than previously appreciated, functioning as a cellular signaling hub that integrates multiple signals to orchestrate regulation of the transcriptional network that drives multiple facets of downstream morphogenesis. The relative contributions of the individual PIFs to this spectrum of regulatory functions ranges from quantitatively redundant to qualitatively distinct.

AB Nitrous oxide (N2O) is the primary greenhouse gas associated with most non-flooded cropping systems. N2O emissions have been measured from numerous experimental plots around the world; most often using ground based chambers but recently estimates based on top down approaches have become available. Data resulting from these measurements led to the development of N2O emission models of varying complexity. Comparing N2O fluxes estimated by different methods shows that as scale increases, estimates based on different modeling and measuring approaches tend to converge. As scale decreases, complex models that simulate the plant-soil system usually agree more closely with measurements than simple models that are based on regression equations. Because about 25-50% of the N fertilizer added to soils is typically lost from the plant-soil system, there is potential to reduce N2O emissions with improved management. Promising technologies include N fertilizers with urease and nitrification inhibitors and time released fertilizers. At the farm level, complex models appear to be the best method to quantify the management impacts on emissions because extensive measuring is too expensive and simple models are not reliable at this scale. But the ability of the models to represent how available land management options interact with environmental conditions to control soil greenhouse gas emissions is incomplete and further model development and testing are required. In particular, model outputs need to be compared with observations of N2O emissions and other nitrogen and carbon fluxes at various spatial and temporal scales.

AB Nitrogen (N) fertilization is essential in most irrigated cropping systems to optimize crop yields and economic returns. Application of inorganic N fertilizers to these cropping systems generally results in increased nitrous oxide (N2O-N) emissions. Nitrous oxide emissions resulting from the application of commercially available enhanced-efficiency N fertilizers [ESN, Duration III, SuperU, and UAN with AgrotainPlus] were compared with emissions from commonly used urea and urea-ammonium nitrate (UAN) fertilizers under differing tillage (conventional-till and no-till) practices and crop rotations (continuous corn, corn-barley, corn-bean). Significant differences in the amount of N2O-N emitted among N sources were found. Some of the enhanced-efficiency N fertilizers reduced N2O-N emissions as much as 50% when compared to dry granular urea and 35% compared to liquid UAN fertilizers commonly used by farmers in this semi-arid region. Further work is required to quantify the effectiveness of enhanced-efficiency N fertilizers in reducing N2O-N emissions in other irrigated and non-irrigated systems, on different soil types, and in wetter climates.

AB Agricultural fertilization worldwide reportedly contributes 6.2 Tg N2O-N yr(-1) to a total global source strength of 17.7 Tg N2O-N yr(-1), and it is not entirely clear how fertilizer management influences the net flux of N2O from soils. Data are lacking in agriculturally productive areas of the upper Midwestern United States, where sub-zero soil temperatures persist over a prolonged winter. Nitrous oxide emissions may be minimized by applying fertilizer N at variable, instead of single rates within crop fields. Using on-farm case studies in the Red River Valley of the North, U.S.A., variable-rate application of fertilizer N to crops was compared to single-rate. Varying the rate of N applied did not influence N2O emissions, and greater amounts of N did not increase crop yields during this 2-year study. Background N2O data measured at undisturbed grass sites suggest N2O emissions at the surface of soils under production agriculture episodically, but not consistently, exceed background emissions.

AB The factors controlling nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions after fertilizer nitrogen (N) applications are well studied. This information can be used to choose appropriate fertilizer sources and placement methods in order to minimize direct fertilizer-induced N2O emissions in cropping systems. Several field experiments have shown that locally concentrated, alkaline-forming fertilizers, such as anhydrous ammonia or subsurface banded urea, in soil produce more N2O than evenly dispersed fertilizers. Nitrification inhibitors lower N2O emissions, but fertilizers employing a physical barrier to control the release of plant-available N are not always effective in this respect. Adding the global warming potential from fertilizer production and field application can shift the overall greenhouse gas emissions among fertility practices depending on the fertilizer type being used. The research findings presented in this review and greater knowledge about the pathways of N2O production will aid in providing better informed choices of N source and placement method in cropping systems.

AB Several decades of research have provided crucial understanding of the production of nitrous oxide (N2O) from agricultural soils and the major environmental and managerial factors that play a role in the generation of this potent greenhouse gas (GHG). Due to the increase in demand for food production and the concomitant increase in use of N fertilizers to meet this demand, it is more than ever important to quantify the effects of the different factors contributing to N2O emissions and produce detailed, accurate and reliable annual N2O emission budgets for current and alternative agricultural systems. Within the diverse cropping systems of California, annual budgets are missing or incomplete for some of the state's more important, high acreage cash crops such as grape and nut crops. Recent research, documented within this paper, highlights the difference in N2O emissions between conventional and alternative management practices in perennial and annual cropping systems of California. We observed measureable differences in N2O emissions between standard and conservation irrigation techniques used in a Northern California almond orchard. Sub-surface drip irrigation had lowered emissions of N2O (0.006+/- 0.001 kg N2O-N ha(-1)) compared to surface drip (0.08 +/- 0.021 kg N2O-N ha(-1)) following a four-day fertigation event. In a Northern California vineyard, although not statistically different, standard tillage (ST) led to less N2O emissions compared to no tillage (NT)/conservation tillage (CT) practices, where cumulative emissions were 0.13 +/- 0.021 kg N2O-N ha(-1) season(-1) in the ST system as compared to 0.19 +/- 0.017 kg N2O-N ha(-1) season(-1) from the NT system. We also show that the use of pyrolyzed agricultural wastes (biochar) as a soil amendment has the ability to reduce N2O emissions associated with fertigation peaks by approximately 41%, however, overall cumulative emissions were not statistically different between the biochar amended soils and control soils. Finally, we recommend based on our studies that future investigations in California should include longer term and more robust sampling to be able to create more accurate future emission budgets and mitigate GHG emissions from both vegetable and perennial crops.

AB Soil organic matter (SOM) transformations play an important role in regulating the atmospheric concentrations of the three primary biogenic greenhouse gases (GHG), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2). Soils are a source and sink of CH4 and CO2, but are usually only a source for N2O. Decomposition of SUM under anaerobic conditions leads to CH4 emissions while aerobic decomposition results in CO2 emissions: The microbial processes that result in N2O emissions involve transformations of inorganic nitrogen (N) that are coupled with SUM cycling. Different methodologies of varying complexity are used to quantify these transformations and associated GHG emissions. Simple methods use regression equations that relate land management practices to GHG emissions. For example, Tier 1 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 12) methodology uses default emission. factors and activity data on N inputs, general land use and climate categories to calculate GHG emissions. Tier 2 methodology uses country or region-specific emission factors and more detailed activity data. Tier 3 methodology involves more complex process-based models that simulate the plant-soil-atmosphere system. The United States uses a Tier 3 approach to estimate soil CO2 and N2O fluxes from most agricultural lands for its national inventory while most other nations use Tier 1 approaches. Although higher tier approaches appear to give better estimates, uncertainty is large and improvements in model algorithms and activity data are required to more reliably account the soil GHG emissions reported in national inventories.

AB Concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere have been increasing since preindustrial times. Integrating poultry litter use into conservation agricultural systems could be a management practice for sequestering atmospheric carbon (C) in soil. However, consideration for best management practices for this strategy must be taken into account when applying poultry litter to maximize nutrient uptake and prevent gaseous loss in the form of CO2, CH4, and N2O. This review demonstrates the impact of poultry litter application in agricultural systems on C sequestration. An evaluation of how poultry litter application practices affect gaseous flux of CO2, CH4, and N2O is also discussed.

AB A bioswale integrating an engineered soil and trees was installed in a parking lot to evaluate its ability to reduce storm runoff, pollutant loading, and support tree growth. The adjacent control and treatment sites each received runoff from eight parking spaces and were identical except that there was no bioswale for the control site. A tree was planted at both sites. Storm runoff, pollutant loading, and tree growth were measured. There were 50 storm events with a total precipitation of 563.8 mm during February 2007 and October 2008. The bioswale reduced runoff by 88.8% and total pollutant loading by 95.4%. The engineered soil provided a better aeration and drainage for tree growth than did the control's compacted urban soil. The superior performance of the bioswale demonstrated its potential use for large-scale application in parking lots and roadsides to reduce runoff and support tree growth.

AB American black bear (Ursus americanus) damage to corn crops in northern Wisconsin is managed by capturing and translocating bears away from fields where damage is occurring. Translocating wildlife is often not a preferred wildlife management technique because of the potential return and repeated capture of animals. Hundreds of bears are translocated in Wisconsin annually, but because anesthetizing, marking, and tracking individual bears is prohibited at the time of year that translocations occur, it is not known whether the same few bears are moved multiple times, or if a large pool of new bears continues to be trapped and translocated. To determine if bears are frequently recaptured, we used genetic techniques to identify translocated bears during 2006 and 2007. Of the 520 bears identified, very few (4%) were recaptured. Of the bears that were recaptured, most (71%) tended to return to within 10 km of their original capture locations. Our inferences relative to the direct cause of low capture rates are limited, but our results show that bears translocated from corn fields are not repeatedly recaptured in Wisconsin.

AB The activation of antiviral activity induced by recombinant swine interferon beta (rswIFN beta) against PRRSV was comparatively examined in MARC-145 cells and porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs). A dose-response analysis showed, in MARC-145 cells, that isolate Mo25544 was highly sensitive to rswIFN beta while a vaccine strain and isolate PDV130-9301 were resistant to different extents. In contrast, all three viruses were equally sensitive to rswIFN beta in PAMs even at the lowest dose of IFN utilized in the bioassays. To analyze potential differences in mechanisms of antiviral activation between these cells, treatment with 2-aminopurine (2-AP), an inhibitor of double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR), was performed in rswIFN beta-treated cells. Addition of 2-AP to rswIFN beta-primed MARC-145 cells restored replication of the Mo25544 isolate, and to some extent that of vaccine virus and PDV130-9301. In contrast, virus replication could not be rescued for any of the three viruses with 2-AP in rswIFN beta-treated PAMs. The differences in sensitivity of PRRSV to rswIFN beta as well as the effects of 2-AP strongly suggest that MARC-145 cells and PAMs utilize different rswIFN beta-associated antiviral pathways. Therefore, studies to understand virus-host cell interactions performed in MARC-145 cells require additional scrutiny when utilized as a host cell model for immunologic responses to PRRSV.

AB A celery isolate of Apium virus Y (ApVY-Ce) from diseased plants in a commercial field in California was characterized. The experimental host range of the virus included 13 plant species in the families Apiaceae, Chenopodiaceae and Solanaceae. Almost all infected plant species showed foliar chlorosis and distortion or severe stunting and systemic chlorosis. ApVY-Ce was transmitted to all 10 host species in the Apiaceae by green peach aphids. It reacted with the potyvirus group antibody and Celery mosaic virus (CeMV) antiserum. The complete genomic sequence of ApVY-Ce was determined to be 9917 nucleotides, excluding the 3' poly(A) tail, and it comprises a large open reading frame encoding a polyprotein of 3184 amino acid residues. Its genomic organization is typical of potyviruses, and contains conserved motifs found in the genus Potyvirus. Comparisons with available genomic sequences of other potyviruses indicate that ApVY-Ce shares 26.1-52.9% identities with species of the existing genera and unassigned viruses in the Potyviridae at the polyprotein sequence level. Extensive phylogenetic analysis based on the 3'-partial sequences confirms that ApVY-Ce is most closely related to CeMV and is a distinct species of the genus Potyvirus. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) initiates translation from two in-frame AUG codons producing two forms of the leader (L) proteinase, Lab (starting at the first AUG) and Lb (starting at second AUG). In a previous study, we have demonstrated that a cDNA-derived mutant FMDV (A24-L1123) containing a 57-nucleotide transposon (tn) insertion between the two AUG initiation codons (inter-AUG region) was completely attenuated in cattle, suggesting that this region is involved in viral pathogenesis. To investigate the potential role of the Lab protein in attenuation, we have introduced two epitope tags (Flag: DYKDDDK and HA: YPYDVPDYA) or a small tetracysteine motif (tc: CCGPCC) into the pA24-L1123 infectious DNA clone. Mutant viruses with a small plaque phenotype similar to the parental A24-L1123 were recovered after transfection of constructs encoding the Flag tag and the tc motif. However, expression of the Flag- or tc-tagged Lab protein was abolished or greatly diminished in these viruses. Interestingly, the A24-L1123/Flag virus acquired an extra base in the inter-AUG region that resulted in new AUG codons in-frame with the second AUG, and produced a larger Lb protein. This N terminal extension of the Lb protein in mutant A24-L1123/Flag did not affect virus viability or L functions in cell culture. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB A new, symptomless virus was identified in blueberry. The dsRNA genome of the virus, provisionally named Blueberry latent virus (BBLV), codes for two putative proteins, one without any similarities to virus proteins and an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. More than 35 isolates of the virus from different cultivars and geographic regions were partially or completely sequenced. BBLV, found in more than 50% of the material tested, has high degree of homogeneity as isolates show more than 99% nucleotide identity between them. Phylogenetic analysis clearly shows a close relationship between BBLV and members of the Partitiviridae, although its genome organization is related more closely to members of the Totiviridae. Transmission studies from three separate crosses showed that the virus is transmitted very efficiently by seed. These properties suggest that BBLV belongs to a new family of plant viruses with unique genome organization for a plant virus but signature properties of cryptic viruses including symptomless infection and very efficient vertical transmission.

AB Previous work showed that distinct amino acid motifs are encoded by the Rep, Cap and ORF3 genes of two subgroups of porcine circoviruses (PCV), PCV2a and PCV2b. At a specific location of the gene, a certain amino acid residue or sequence is preferred. Specifically, two amino acid domains located in the capsid protein, designated motif-1 (six residues located at positions 86-91) and motif-2 (four residues at positions 190-191-206-210), have been identified to associate with either PCV2a (motif-1a:T(N)KI(S)I and motif-2a:SRKD) or PCV2b (motif-1b:S(N)PR(S)V and motif-2b:AGIE) preferentially. In this study, the protein distribution pattern of a PCV2a isolate and a PCV2b isolate was examined. Each virus exhibited a different viral protein pattern during replication in porcine kidney cells and the viral protein distribution pattern was associated with amino acid motif-2 but not motif-1. The results also showed that a more robust accumulation of viral proteins in the nucleus was associated with motif-2b than with motif-2a. In addition, viruses containing motif-2b replicated better than viruses containing motif-2a in porcine kidney cells. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Ionizing radiation improves food safety and extends shelf life by inactivating food-borne pathogens and spoilage microorganisms. However, irradiation may induce the development of an off-odor, particularly at high doses. The off-odor has been called "irradiation odor". Substantial evidence suggests that volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) play an important role in the development of the off-odor. These compounds include hydrogen sulfide, methanethiol, methyl sulfide, dimethyl disulfide and dimethyl trisulfide among others. The formation of off-odor and VSCs due to irradiation in meat, and fruit juices is presented. It is known that irradiation exerts its effect through radiolysis of water in foods where water is a dominant component. Irradiation of water produces three primary free radicals: hydroxyl, hydrogen atoms, and hydrated electrons. Use of specific scavengers in a model system revealed that hydroxyl radicals are involved in the formation of VSCs. Possible mechanisms for formation of VSC are also discussed. Also discussed are possible remedies for formation of VSCs and off-odor, such as use of antioxidants and double packaging.

AB Wars, drought and social collapse have greatly impaired land management and agriculture production systems in the southeastern Afghanistan provinces of Khost, Paktika and Paktya. This region has long existed with limited central government influence and remains particularly unstable. A complex physical and social geography, on-going warfare, severely limited mobility and policies poorly adapted to regional realities hamper development and reconstruction. On-farm water efficiency improvement, watershed-scale work restricted to small, socially homogeneous watersheds and word-of-mouth Afghan-to-Afghan technology dissemination are particularly important development strategies in this environment.

AB The Conservation Effects Assessment Project was established to quantify water quality benefits of conservation practices supported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). In 2004, watershed assessment studies were begun in fourteen agricultural watersheds with varying cropping systems, landscapes, climate, and water quality concerns. This paper reviews USDA Agricultural Research Service 'Benchmark' watershed studies and the challenge of identifying water quality benefits in watersheds. Study goals included modeling and field research to assess practices, and evaluation of practice placement in watersheds. Not all goals were met within five years but important lessons were learned. While practices improved water quality, problems persisted in larger watersheds. This dissociation between practice-focused and watershed-scale assessments occurred because: (1) Conservation practices were not targeted at critical sources/pathways of contaminants; (2) Sediment in streams originated more from channel and bank erosion than from soil erosion; (3) Timing lags, historical legacies, and shifting climate combined to mask effects of practice implementation; and (4) Water quality management strategies addressed single contaminants with little regard for trade-offs among contaminants. These lessons could help improve conservation strategies and set water quality goals with realistic timelines. Continued research on agricultural water quality could better integrate modeling and monitoring capabilities, and address ecosystem services.

AB The concept of critical source areas of phosphorus (P) loss produced by coinciding source and transport factors has been studied since the mid 1990s. It is widely recognized that identification of such areas has led to targeting of management strategies and conservation practices that more effectively mitigate P transfers from agricultural landscapes to surface waters. Such was the purpose of P Indices and more complex nonpoint source models. Despite their widespread adoption across the U.S., a lack of water quality improvement in certain areas (e.g. Chesapeake Bay Watershed and some of its tributaries) has challenged critical source area management to be more restrictive. While the role of soil and applied P has been easy to define and quantify, representation of transport processes still remains more elusive. Even so, the release of P from land management and in-stream buffering contribute to a legacy effect that can overwhelm the benefits of critical source area management, particularly as scale increases (e.g. the Chesapeake Bay). Also, conservation tillage that reduces erosion can lead to vertical stratification of soil P and ultimately increased dissolved P loss. Clearly, complexities imparted by spatially variable landscapes, climate, and system response will require iterative monitoring and adaptation, to develop locally relevant solutions. To overcome the challenges we have outlined, critical source area management must involve development of a 'toolbox' that contains several approaches to address the underlying problem of localized excesses of P and provide both spatial and temporal management options. To a large extent, this may be facilitated with the use of GIS and digital elevation models. Irrespective of the tool used, however, there must be a two-way dialogue between science and policy to limit the softening of technically rigorous and politically difficult approaches to truly reducing P losses.

DE constructed wetlands; phosphorus removal; polyaluminium chloride; swine

ID MARSH-POND-MARSH
AB Total phosphorus (TP) removal in aged constructed wetlands poses a challenge, especially when treated with swine wastewater with high concentrations of phosphorus (P). Our earlier studies with anaerobic lagoon swine wastewater treatment in constructed wetlands showed a decline in P removal (45-22%) with increased years of operation. These particular wetlands have been treated with swine wastewater every year since the first application in 1997. Preliminary lab-scale studies were conducted to evaluate the efficiency of polyaluminium chloride (PAC) in the removal of phosphate-P (PO(4)-P) from swine wastewater. The experimental objective was to increase the phosphorus treatment efficiency in constructed wetland by adding PAC as a precipitating agent. PAC was added by continuous injection to each wetland system at a rate of 3 L day(-1) (1:5 dilution of concentrated PAC). Swine wastewater was added from an anaerobic lagoon to four constructed wetland cells (11m wide x 40m long) at TP loads of 5.4-6.1 kg ha(-1) day(-1) in two experimental periods, September to November of 2008 and 2009. Treatment efficiency of two wetland systems:marsh-pond-marsh (M-P-M) and continuous marsh (CM) was compared. The wetlands were planted with cattails (Typha latifolia L.) and bulrushes (Scirpus americanus). In 2008, PAC treatment showed an increase of 27.5 and 40.8% of TP removal over control in M-P-M and CM respectively. Similar trend was also observed in the following year. PAC as a flocculant and precipitating agent showed potential to enhance TP removal in constructed wetlands treated with swine wastewater.

ID 4-VINYLCYCLOHEXENE DIEPOXIDE; MANAGEMENT; TEXAS
AB Context. The expansion of feral pig populations across the United States has increased the occurrence of damage and damage complaints. New techniques are needed to more effectively manage feral pig damage, including the development of fertility control agents.
   Aims. We aimed to assess the ovotoxic properties of ERL-4221 as a candidate fertility control agent for feral pigs.
   Methods. We conducted two palatability trials to determine ERL-4221 acceptance and one experimental trial with ERL-4221 at the captive wildlife facility of Texas A&M University-Kingsville during 2008. Our experimental trial had three treatments, a control containing no ERL-4221, baits containing 16.0 mg ERL-4221 kg (1) bodyweight for 10 days, and baits containing 16.0 mg ERL-4221 kg(-1) bodyweight for 20 days.
   Key results. Final body mass, total ovary mass, number of follicles and number of corpora lutea did not differ between treatments.
   Conclusions. We did not find it efficacious to orally deliver ERL-4221 to feral pigs to reduce fertility. Oral delivery is the most practical, cost-effective means of delivering fertility control agents to feral pigs and development of additional fertility control strategies are needed.
   Implications. Unless ovotoxic effects of ERL-4221 can be identified in feral pigs, along with a successful means of administration, other fertility control strategies may need to be explored, such as oocyte-secreted proteins that regulate follicular development.

AB Context. Contraception is increasingly used as a management technique to reduce fertility in wildlife populations; however, the feasibility of contraceptive formulations has been limited until recently because they have required multiple treatments to achieve prolonged infertility.
   Aims. We tested the efficacy and evaluated potential side effects of two contraceptive formulations, a porcine zona pellucida (PZP) formulation, SpayVac (R) and a gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) formulation GonaCon-B (TM), in a population of free-roaming feral horses (Equus caballus). Both formulations were developed to provide several years of infertility with one injection.
   Methods. Females were treated in June 2005 with either GonaCon-B (n = 24), SpayVac (n = 20), adjuvant only (n = 22), or received no injection (n = 18). Females were monitored for fertility status year round for 3 years after treatment.
   Key results. Both contraceptive treatments significantly reduced fertility for 3 years. Fertility rates for GonaCon-B mares were 39%, 42% and 31%, respectively, and 37%, 50% and 44% for SpayVac mares. During the same seasons, 61%, 67% and 76% of control females were fertile. We found no significant effects from contraceptive treatment on the sex ratio of foals, birthing season or foal survival.
   Conclusions. These results demonstrated that both vaccines are capable of significantly reducing fertility for several years without boosters.

AB Two ubiquitin promoters from Gladiolus, GUBQ2 and GUBQ4, were isolated by screening multiple phage genomic DNA libraries with RUBQ2, an ubiquitin gene from rice. GUBQ2 was identified as a polyubiquitin promoter because of its ubiquitin gene monomers. GUBQ2 contained the evolutionarily conserved 5 ' and 3 ' splice sites for its 682 bp intron in the conserved position immediately upstream from the ATG initiation codon. This intron had a 68% AU content similar to the minimum 60% AU content reported for dicots. The uidA gene that codes for GUS gene expression was subcloned under either the GUBQ2 or GUBQ4 promoters and used to transform callus by biolistics. Putatively transformed Gladiolus plants were selected by visual, histochemical staining of callus, young leaves, and young roots. Roots of some plant lines expressed GUS either throughout the length of the root or specifically in its meristem.

AB The quince, Cydonia oblonga Mill., belongs to a monotypic genus and is a close relative of apple (Malus) and pear (Pyrus) in the Rosaceae family. It has been cultivated for thousands of years in central Asia and the Middle East for its fruit, and for hundreds of years as a dwarfing rootstock for pear. The USDA-ARS National Clonal Germplasm Repository in Corvallis, Oregon has assembled a diverse living collection of Cydonia genotypes originating from more than 15 countries, and maintained as self-rooted orchard trees. We evaluated 24 apple SSR primer pairs that also amplify in pear for cross-transference to 45 diverse quince accessions from the Corvallis collection. Nine apple primer pairs that appeared polymorphic in quince were selected and used to evaluate genetic relationships among 92 quince genotypes and 3 intergeneric pear x quince hybrids (X Pyronia veitchii (Trab.) Guillaumin). The quince accessions proved to be very diverse, with only 6 sets of synonyms in addition to a group of 12 clones that could not be differentiated. 'Meech's Prolific' and 'Bourgeault' had identical fingerprints, and similar phenotypes. 'Portugiesiche Birnquitta', 'Gamboa', 'Bereczki', 'Rich' and 'Van Deman' also had identical fingerprints and similar phenotypes. Several large-fruited clones from Turkey grouped closely with the five 'Portugal' clones and also with other large-fruited quince clones from Ukraine and USA suggesting Turkish germplasm as a possible origin for the group. Additional SSR markers may be needed for finer resolution where unique clones could not be differentiated. This study represents the first genetic identity evaluation of quince genotypes spanning much of Cydonia's natural wild and cultivated geographic distribution.

DE Cydonia oblonga; cold hardiness; pear rootstock; differential thermal
   analysis
AB The USA pear industry lacks a size-controlling, precocious rootstock for pear production. Commercially available selections of quince (Cydonia oblonga Mill.) have been reported to possess insufficient cold tolerance for northern latitude sites in the USA and Canada. Fifty in-situ clonal quince accessions with diverse origins, and seven Pyrus clones, located at the USDA clonal genebank have been screened monthly (September-March) to characterize their response to acclimation/deacclimation conditions, determine minimum hardiness level, and identify tissue-specific sensitivity limits to sub-zero temperatures. One-year-old shoot pieces were loaded into a programmable freeze chamber, and subjected to freezing at a rate of 4 degrees C per hour. Samples were removed following one hour at each of five treatment temperatures (0, -10, -20, -30, and -40 degrees C), incubated at 20 degrees C for one-week, sectioned transversely, and observed under a stereomicroscope. Individual tissue zones (phloem, cambium, and xylem) were rated according to the degree of oxidative browning. The lowest exposure temperature sustained with minimum observable tissue injury (<25% browning) was used to report minimum hardiness level. Ambient temperatures (minimum and mean) recorded at the genebank gradually declined throughout early fall, providing good conditions for onset of cold acclimation and development of hardiness. Following cold acclimation, 25 quince accessions were capable of withstanding -30 degrees C without detectable levels of freeze injury. Thirteen of those were categorized as having low levels of tissue browning (likely survivability) following exposure to -40 degrees C. Under our climatic conditions, none of the pear accessions tested, including four previously reported cold-hardy accessions, appeared capable of withstanding -40 degrees C. Sensitivity to sub-zero temperatures was similar among xylem, phloem and cambial tissue, though phloem tended to possess slightly greater hardiness during December (peak hardiness period). Several quince clones exhibited freeze tolerance equal to or greater than the current 'Old Home' x 'Farmingdale' Pyrus clones widely used today in the USA.

AB Pantoea agglomerans E325, the active ingredient in a commercial product for fire blight control, was previously shown in vitro to produce a unique alkaline-and phosphate-sensitive antibiotic specific to Erwinia amylovora. Antibiosis was evaluated as a mode of antagonism on blossom stigmas using two antibiosis-deficient mutants. On King's medium B, mutants E325ad1 and E325ad2 have stable smooth-butyrous or hypermucoid colony morphologies, respectively, whereas the parental strain E325 exhibits phenotypic plasticity with predominantly hypermucoid colonies accompanied by slower-growing, smooth-butyrous colonies. Mutants were tested against E. amylovora on stigmas of detached blossoms of crab apple (Malus mandshurica) in growth chambers and apple (Malus domestica) in the orchard. Epiphytic fitness of the antibiosis-negative mutants was similar or greater than the parental strain as determined by relative area under the population curve (RAUPC). In laboratory and orchard trials, both mutants had significantly lower inhibitory activity against the pathogen (i.e., less reduction of E. amylovora RAUPC) compared to the parental strain. E325 and the mutants caused similar decreases in pH in a broth medium, indicating that acidification, which was previously reported as a possible mechanism of pathogen inhibition on stigmas, is not directly related to antibiosis. In this study we provide the first evidence for E325 antibiosis involved in E. amylovora growth suppression on apple blossom stigmas.

AB Pantoea agglomerans E325 is a commercially available biocontrol agent for fire blight in the USA. Osmoadaptation, involving the combination of saline osmotic stress and osmolyte amendment to growth media, was investigated as a means of improving the survival of E325 on apple and pear blossoms under dry western conditions. Two complex media, nutrient yeast dextrose broth and the commercial fermentation medium, were supplemented with 0.5 M NaCl and 0.1 mM glycine betaine according to Bonaterra et al. (2005, 2007). E325 was cultured at ARS-USDA laboratory and commercial facility, then freeze dried with cryoprotectants and applied to 'Gala' apple blossoms in an orchard. In 2009, initial population sizes on blossom stigmas, and areas under population-size curves (A(ps)), were greater for osmoadapted than non-osmoadapted E325. However, comparison of treatments based on areas under the daily-growth curves (A(dg)) indicated no differences. Results were confirmed by a second trial in 2010. This led us to examine the stability of the E325 preparations prior to field application. Preparations used for field tests continued to be maintained at -20 degrees C and were sampled periodically to estimate viable concentrations. Separate stability tests were also performed involving osmoadapted E325 with and without cryoprotectants. Additionally, we evaluated survival and growth of osmoadapted E325 on both the stigmas and hypanthia of detached crab apple blossoms. Osmoadaptation improved the survival of E325 during freeze drying and subsequent storage prior to application, but did not eliminate the need for cryoprotectants. This production method, however, did not increase the survival of E325 on blossom stigmas under low relative humidity in the orchard (45% average) or laboratory (50 or 70%), but was shown in the laboratory to increase survival and growth in the blossom hypanthium. Further orchard experimentation is necessary to verify this.

AB The U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) held a series of stakeholder listening sessions in 2006-2007 in preparation for the impending farm bill. They received thousands of comments from horticultural producers, handlers and processors. Overwhelmingly, these comments emphasized the need for science-based solutions to the challenges facing U. S. horticultural industries. In response, USDA created the Specialty Crop Research Initiative (SCRI) and charged the Research, Education and Economics Mission Area with implementation. During the implementation phase, stakeholders identified workforce development as a critical need and USDA responded by including this as one of five major areas in a strategic implementation plan for the SCRI. With passage of the farm bill in 2008, SCRI received US$230 million over 5 years in mandatory funding for a competitive grant program to address the science needs of the horticultural community. The overall focus of this grant program is to discover new knowledge and technologies to insure a sustainable supply of horticultural products. The development of new knowledge and technology further emphasizes the need for education and training of both the current and future workforce in horticulture. A comprehensive plan spanning university graduate education to primary education has been developed. The goal is to link the entire agricultural education system in a coordinated series of programs that inspires youth to choose horticulture as a career and that enables those already in horticultural careers to expand their knowledge into areas of future need. There will be a continuing need to create new educational opportunities as horticultural industries become more knowledge and data intensive.

AB 'Ohelo (Vaccinium reticulatum Smith) is a small, native shrub commonly found in disturbed, open sites at 640 to 3700 meter elevation on the islands of Hawaii and Maui. The shrub is very hardy with compact form and bright waxy red new growth. A wide diversity of forms and colors are available in the fruit, leaves and growth habits. Three 'Ohelo berry cultivars, 'Kilauea', 'Red Button' and 'Nene', were selected for ornamental use and fruit production. This study tested cryopreservation (-196 degrees C) and in vitro cold storage (4 degrees C) of these cultivars for germplasm preservation. Wild collected seed was also cryopreserved. Germination of 12 months cryopreserved seed was significantly better than control seed. Shoot cultures in Star Pac tissue-culture bags were maintained in good condition in 4 degrees C cold storage for more than 16 months. Bead encapsulated shoot tips were moderately desiccation sensitive and could be dried to 31% moisture content before severe loss of viability. For cryopreservation, shoot cultures of the three cultivars were cold acclimated with alternating temperatures, then the shoot tips were cryopreserved with controlled rate cooling, encapsulation dehydration and PVS2 vitrification. Regrowth following the three techniques was similar for the three cultivars. These results indicate that germplasm from all three cultivars retained viability and regrowth capacity under these storage conditions. 'Ohelo berry germplasm could be efficiently conserved for over a year using in vitro cold storage and for long term by cryopreservation of shoot tips or seeds.

AB In vitro cold storage of fruit crop germplasm is useful for preservation of heritage or commercial cultivars. Shoot cultures of sour cherry (Prunus cerasus L.) cultivars 'Dolgozdannaya', 'Moya Radost' and 'Zukovskaya', were cold stored at 4 degrees C in either five-section tissue-culture bags or in 150-ml glass jars. Carbon sources (3% sucrose, 2 or 3% mannitol, or 2% sucrose + 2% mannitol) were tested in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium with or without plant growth regulators (PGRs). Nitrate nitrogen at 100, 50 or 25% of the normal MS concentration was also tested. In some treatments, shoot cultures of the three cherry cultivars stored at 4 degrees C remained viable for over 30 months. A significant variation in the storage duration and significant interactions of the cultivar, treatment, and container were observed. Sucrose was the best carbon source for all three genotypes and allowed storage for more than 30 months. Shoots stored on 2 or 3% mannitol survived only 6 to 12 months while the combination of 2% mannitol and 2% sucrose extended storage to 30 months. The addition of abscisic acid to 3% sucrose MS medium significantly decreased storage duration. 57 accessions of sour cherry germplasm were stored in tissue culture bags on 3% sucrose MS medium without PGRs and remained in good condition for 13 to 30 months. Currently, 68 P. cerasus germplasm accessions of the Kazakhstan National Cherry Collection are stored in tissue-culture bags with MS medium, PGRs, and 3% sucrose.

AB The USDA-ARS National Clonal Germplasm Repository (NCGR) in Corvallis, Oregon, maintains more than 1500 Fragaria accessions representing 22 species collected from 37 countries. Species designation is currently based on the published species descriptions which depend on geographical origin and morphological traits that exhibit limited variation. Our objective was to assess a simple DNA-based technique, DNA barcoding for the ability to identity Fragaria species. Two recommended plant DNA barcodes, the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (nrITS) and chloroplast spacer psbA-trnH, were tested. The 'barcoding gap', between within species and between species variation, was absent preventing successful identification of Fragaria species. Cluster analysis using nrITS supported F. mandschurica as the maternal donor to the octoploids. Two (Y and Z) of the three defined diploid Fragaria clades (X, Y, and Z) were identified using nrITS, while the chloroplast psbA-trnH contained little variation. The psbA-trnH spacer could only identify F. bucharica and F. nilgerrensis due to characteristic deletions in this chloroplast region. Neither of the two sequences, singly or in combination, could identify each of the Fragaria species. Therefore, DNA barcoding using universal sequences is not an adequate technique for species identification in Fragaria.

ID BLUEBERRIES
AB The Direccao de Servicos de Agricultura e Pecuaria, Ponta Delgada, Sao Miguel, Acores, Portugal, began a collaboration with the United States Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, National Clonal Germplasm Repository at Corvallis, Oregon, and The Ohio State University, Department of Entomology in 2004. While previous horticultural production in the Azores included bananas, pineapples, apples, pears, and grapes, the cultivated temperate zone berry crops have not been grown extensively. Our objective was to compare berry cultivars in the Azores. Between 2006 and 2009, plantings of southern highbush blueberries, Vaccinium corymbosum, 'Emerald', 'Jewel,' 'Misty' and 'O'Neal'; of northern highbush blueberries, V. corymbosum, 'Brigitta', 'Duke' and 'Elliott'; and a rabbiteye cultivar, V. virgatum, 'Spring High', were established in Furnas and in Ponta Delgada. In 2007 and 2009, plantings of thornless blackberry Rubus hybrid 'Triple Crown', and two cultivars of red raspberries, Rubus idaeus 'Heritage' and 'Taylor', were established. In Furnas, only the 'Emerald' blueberry produced fruit in 2008 and 2009. The average yield in the first year was 0.4 kg/plant; in 2009 it was 2.6 kg/plant. The average fruit diameter was 13.95 mm, and weight was 2.44 g. The other cultivars did not produce fruit and the 'Jewel' plants were susceptible to leaf rust disease caused by Naohidemyces vaccinii (Wint.) Sato, Katsuya et Hiratsuka (=Pucciniastrum vaccinii). The blackberry plants produced fruit in 2009. Bud break occurred very late in the season (beginning of June) and the crop season extended from 26 August to 17 December although during the last month only a few fruit were produced. The production peak occurred on the first week of October. The 'Heritage' red raspberry fruit first ripened on 7 August and finished 14 September. The maximum production occurred on 17 August. The average fruit diameter was 15.93 mm, length was 17.50 mm, and weight was 2.60 g/berry. The raspberries became infested with the insect Spodoptera littoralis (Boisduval). 'Taylor' was more susceptible than 'Heritage' to this lepidopterous pest. Trials are continuing.

AB The two-decade history of fire blight in Bulgaria revealed quince as one of the most frequently attacked hosts and production of quince on a large scale has been almost eliminated. Nevertheless, this species will play an important epidemiological role as a permanent source of inoculum for spread of the pathogen to other hosts because of its traditional presence in many private yards, and its bloom period coinciding with favorable fire blight conditions in the late spring. Fire blight disease evaluations were made for 3 years in a collection of the most important quince cultivars in Bulgaria. Two native cultivars, 'Hemus' and 'Triumph', were found to have high levels of field resistance (Bobev and Deckers, 1999). The promising resistance response of these cultivars encouraged a 10-year program which examined the fire blight resistance of 274 hybrid progenies (3 replicates per combination on the rootstock BA 29). Under natural epiphytotic conditions in 2003 and 2005, a group of 19 progenies were selected because of their significant resistance to fire blight. These selections produced less than 15 blossom and shoot infections per tree, and less than 5% blighted canopy under high disease pressure. New quince selections that combine resistance to fire blight, high fruit quality, and suitability for compote processing, will enable the sustainable production of this crop. Resistant forms could also be examined as potential rootstocks for both pear and quince, thus preventing more severe disease in both crops. The use of fire blight resistant quince trees will not only reduce disease incidence and improve quince production, but will also reduce inoculum levels and benefit the production of other pome fruit species.

AB The USDA Agricultural Research Service maintains clonal germplasm collections representing world diversity of Pyrus, Cydonia and Mespilus at its National Clonal Germplasm Repository in Corvallis, Oregon, USA. Smaller collections of Amelanchier, Aronia, Crataegus, Sorbus and other genera in Rosaceae subtribe Pyrinae (formerly subfamily Maloideae) are also conserved at this genebank. Subtribe Pyrinae includes an unusually large number of intergeneric hybrids, some having natural origins and others resulting from intentional cross pollinations. For example, natural populations of xAmelasorbus (Amelanchier x Sorbus) are known from western North America. Hybrid clones with garden origins include xSorbopyrus (Sorbus x Pyrus), which has been known since the early 1400s and xCrataemespilus (Crataegus x Mespilus) since the late 1800s. Flow cytometry results confirm that a large fruited xSorbopyrus selection developed in the early 1800s is triploid. The species xPyronia veitchii (Pyrus x Cydonia) originated from intentional hybridization in the early 1900s, and has become a useful virus sensitive indicator plant. Intergeneric hybrids between other members of Pyrinae have been generated for ornamental landscape, fruit production and rootstock use. Some intergeneric clones have been clonally propagated and widely disseminated. The intergeneric clonal accessions maintained at the USDA genebank have potential uses in molecular genetic and botanical research as well as horticultural applications in orchards and landscapes.

AB Higher percentages of transplants of short-day cultivar 'Strawberry Festival' from runner tips plugged in early July rather than the standard time (early August) bloomed in the fall. Nearly 100% of the transplants produced in early July flowered in the fall, but less than 30% of the August-plugged transplants flowered in the fall. Under protected cultivation, July-plugged plants produced fruit in October, November and December. Illuminating the crowns of July-plugged transplants with red light in August delayed bloom by several months. In another study, growing transplants under red photoselective nets in August delayed flowering until January. The results of these studies suggested that floral bud initiation can be induced even under long photoperiod if the light illuminating the strawberry crown lacks red and shorter wavelength light whereas excessive red light transmittance either with red LED lights or growing transplants under red photoselective shade net in August delayed flower bud initiation. The colored nets did not affect runnering during fall months. The nursery industry can use the non-flowering transplants as stock plants because periodic flower removal is not needed for preventing infection by Colletotrichum species. Changing the time of plugging and altering the light quality for plug plant production will create an opportunity for double-cropping, e. g., fruit production from SD cultivars in fall and early winter and again in the spring in the mid-Atlantic coast region.

AB A virus induced crumbly fruit disease of red raspberry cultivars has been observed in northern Washington, USA and British Columbia, Canada. Raspberry bushy dwarf virus (RBDV) and Raspberry leaf mottle virus (RLMV) were detected in raspberries with severe crumbly fruit. In addition, a novel Reovirus, Raspberry latent virus (RpLV) that does not cause symptoms in single infections was isolated from these plants. The polymerase sequence has 36% aa sequence identity to Rice ragged stunt virus (RRSV, an Oryzavirus). The lack of conservation between the terminal sequences of RpLV and RRSV, as well as the absence of homologs for segments S3b, S6, S7, and S10b, and the distinct hosts for these viruses justify the creation of a new genus for the classification of RpLV. These findings along with the lack of severe crumbly fruit symptoms in 'Meeker' red raspberry singly infected with RBDV in Oregon, suggest the existence of a novel virus complex associated with severe crumbly fruit in red raspberries.

AB Trachymolgus pulpureus Fisher & Dowling sp. n. is described from the Ozark highlands of North America. A diversity of imaging techniques are used to illustrate the species including low-temperature scanning electron microscopy (LT-SEM), stereomicrography, compound light micrography, and digitally created line drawings. Developmental stages (larva, nymphs, and adult) and morphology are illustrated and discussed, and terminological corrections are suggested. Thachymolgus recki Gomelauri, 1961 is regarded as being described from tritonymphs. A key to Trachymolgus is presented.

AB Two distinctive new species of the Neotropical stingless bee genus Paratrigona Schwarz from Ecuador and Paraguay are described and figured. The Ecuadorian species, P. scapisetosa sp. n., belongs to the haeckeli-lineatifrons group and is easily distinguished from its congeners by the unique shape and pubescence of the antennal scape, which is distinctly convex on its outer margin and bears thick, long, simple hairs along its inner margin. The Paraguayan species, P. wasbaueri sp. n., belongs to the lineata group and is easily distinguished by the pattern of body pubescence in both sexes and male genitalic characters. The male of the Mesoamerican species P. ornaticeps (Schwarz) is described and figured. New geographical records for P. impunctata and P. opaca, and an updated key to the haeckeli-lineatiftons and lineata species groups are provided.

AB The Australian Thrasorinae are revised and Mikeius is transferred to Mikeiinae Paretas-Martinez & Pujade-Villar, subfam. n., and M. clavatus Pujade-Villar & Restrepo-Ortiz, sp. n., is described. Two new genera of Thrasorinae are erected: Cicatrix Paretas-Martinez, gen. n., including C. pilosiscutum (Girault), comb. n. from Amblynotus, C schauffi (Buffington), comb. n. from Mikeius, and C. neumannoides Paretas-Martinez & Restrepo-Ortiz, sp. n.; and Palmiriella Pujade-Villar & Paretas-Martinez, gen. n., including P neumanni (Buffington), comb. n. from Mikeius, Thrasorus rieki Paretas-Martinez & Pujade-Villar, sp. n., is also described. A phylogenetic analysis of 176 morphological and biological characters, including all these new taxa and all genera previously included in Thrasorinae, was conducted. All subfamilies were recovered as monophyletic, with the following relationships: Parnipinae (Euceroptrinae (Mikeiinae (Plectocynipinae (Thrasorinae)))). A worldwide key to the subfamilies of Figitidae is provided that includes the new subfamily, as well as a key to genera Thrasorinae.
