Cytokinins are plant hormones that play a large and incompletely understood role in the life-cycle of plants. The goal of this study was to determine what roles cytokinins play in the morphological development of wheat. To achieve any real success in altering the development and growth of wheat, the cytokinins must be applied directly to the apical meristem, or spike of the plant. It is in this region that the plant cells are actively undergoing mitosis. Kinetin and Zeatin were the two cytokinins chosen for this experiment. Kinetin is an artificial hormone that was originally extracted from old or heated DNA. Kinetin is easily made from the reaction of adenine and furfuryl alcohol. Zeatin is a naturally occurring hormone found in corn, wheat, and many other plants.Chinese Spring Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was used for this experiment. Prior to planting, the seeds were germinated in a moist environment for 72 hours.

Analysis methods developed specifically to determine the presence of ink and other optically active components in paper machine white waters or other process effluents are not available. It is generally more interest¬ing to quantify the effect of circulation water contaminants on end products. This study compares optical techniques to quantify the dirt in process water by two methods for test media preparation and measurement: direct process water filtration on a membrane foil and low-grammage sheet formation. The results show that ink content values obtained from various analyses cannot be directly compared because of fundamental issues involving test media preparation and the varied methodologies used to formulate the results, which may be based on different sets of assumptions. The use of brightness, luminosity, and reflectance and the role of scattering measurements as a part of ink content analysis are discussed, along with fine materials retention and measurement media selection. The study concludes with practical tips for case-dependent measurement methodology selection.

AbstractA successful observation and analysis of the Zeeman effect on the near 1.54 μm photoluminescence spectrum in Er-doped crystalline MBE-grown silicon are reported. A clearly resolved splitting of 5 major spectral components was observed in magnetic fields up to 5.5 T. Based on the analysis of the data the symmetry of the dominant optically active center was conclusively established as orthorhombic I (C2v), with g‼≈18.4 and g⊥≈0 in the ground state. The fact that g⊥≈0 explains why EPR detection of Er-related optically active centers in silicon may be difficult. Preferential generation of a single type of an optically active Er-related center in MBE growth confirmed in this study is essential for photonic applications of Si:Er.
