Generic Description

Six species of Hypoglossum are recognized on southern Australian coasts and a key and detailed descriptions are provided. Following study also of the type species, H. woodwardii, from Britain, the generic description is broadened to include species where (I) not all second-order cells produce third-order cell rows although all third-order cell rows reach the thallus margin. (2) the carposporangia develop sequentially at the apex of branches of the carposporophyte, 1-3 being mature or almost so at one time; and (3) tetrasporangia are produced from cells of the second- and third-order rows and in some species (but not all) from cortical cells, and separate cover cells do not seem to occur.

Citrus fibrous roots are vital for absorption and transport of water, nutrients, and other endogenous plant growth regulators. Efficient functioning of these roots in Huanglongbing (HLB)-affected citrus trees is important for their survival. One-year-old ‘Valencia’ sweet orange (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) trees on Swingle citrumelo were budded with HLB-infected budwood to determine the HLB-induced pathological responses at the ultrastructural level of different fibrous root orders. The fibrous root mass was dissected into four root orders: fourth-order (attached to a thick rudimentary taproot), third-order (attached to the fourth-order root), and second-order roots (attached to the third-order root). We were not able to study the ultrastructure of the first-order (attached to the second-order root) roots in this study. Severe loss in fibrous root mass was observed within 1 year following HLB infection. All root orders displayed various degrees of HLB symptoms. The fourth-order roots comprised normal phloem and disintegrated phloem. Some vascular bundles had completely disintegrated phloem tissue, whereas others showed normal ultrastructure. The fourth-order roots were also deficient in starch granules compared with controls. The pattern of phloem disintegration was similar in the third- and second-order roots. A thick layer of necrotic phloem developed near cortical cells, while the rest of the phloem structure remained normal in the third- and second-order roots. Cortical cells of both third and second orders were enriched with starch granules; therefore, soluble carbohydrates are most likely not the limiting factor for root decline in these root orders. The xylem anatomy displayed heptarch to pentarch morphology in the various root orders. These observations confirmed that various root orders in the fibrous root system are distinct and exhibit varied pathological responses during HLB pathogenesis. We propose that photosynthates deprived fourth-order roots in conjunction with necrotic phloem promoted decline in all root orders and impaired the translocation process to aboveground plant parts.

Frequency Generation

Vibrational sum-frequency generation (vSFG) spectroscopy is used to determine the molecular structure of water at the interface of palmitic acid monolayers. Both measured and calculated spectra display speci c features due to third-order contributions to the vSFG response which are associated with nite interfacial electric potentials. We demonstrate that theoretical modeling enables to separate the third-order contributions, thus allowing for a systematic analysis of the strictly surface-sensitive, second-order component of the vSFG response. This study provides fundamental, molecular-level insights into the interfacial structure of water in a neutral surfactant system with relevance to single layer bio-membranes and environmentally relevant sea-spray aerosols. These results emphasize the key role that computer simulations can play in interpreting vSFG spectra and revealing microscopic details of water at complex interfaces, which can be difficult to extract from experiments due to the mixing of second-order, surface-sensitive and third-order, bulk-dependent contributions to the vSFG response.

Pyridinium Ions

The kinetics of nucleophilic substitution reactions of 1-(phenoxycarbonyl)pyridinium ions, prepared with the essentially non-nucleophilic/non-basic fluoroborate as the counterion, have been studied using up to 1.60 M methanol in acetonitrile as solvent and under solvolytic conditions in 2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-ol (TFE) and its mixtures with water. Under the non- solvolytic conditions, the parent and three pyridine-ring-substituted derivatives were studied. Both second-order (first-order in methanol) and third-order (second-order in methanol) kinetic contributions were observed. In the solvolysis studies, since solvent ionizing power values were almost constant over the range of aqueous TFE studied, a Grunwald–Winstein equation treatment of the specific rates of solvolysis for the parent and the 4-methoxy derivative could be carried out in terms of variations in solvent nucleophilicity, and an appreciable sensitivity to changes in solvent nucleophilicity was found.

The initial stages of panicle, spikelet, and floret development in field-grown 'Kay' orchardgrass were examined using scanning electron microscopy. Spikelets arose from a complex multilevelled sequence of initiation from branch apices. Spikelets developed indirectly in a two-tiered progression: (i) an acropetal and basipetal sequence of first order, second-order, and third-order inflorescence apices, and (ii) an acropetal development within subclusters of higher-order lateral branch inflorescence apices. The panicle had the unique feature of dorsiventrality as well as bilateral symmetry. The basal apex from first-order, second-order, or third-order apices developed on the same side of the main axis as the first-order apex. The two glumes subtending each spikelet primordium developed alternately and acropetally. Development and initiation of florets within spikelets was basipetal within the panicle, basipetal within clusters and subclusters of spikelets on lateral branches, and acropetal within spikelets. Within florets, paleas developed later than lemmas. Key words: Dactylis glomerata, cocksfoot, scanning electron microscopy, development, panicle.

Spatial scanning of the synchronously generated second- and third-order intermodulation distortion in superconducting resonators uncovers local nonlinearity hot spots, and possible time reversal symmetry breaking, using a simple probe fashioned from coaxial cable. It is clear that even and odd order nonlinearity in these samples do not share the same physical origins, because their temperature and static magnetic field dependences are quite different. 2nd order intermodulation distortion remains strong in these measurements as the temperature continues to drop belowTCto 77 K even though the 3rd order peaks nearTCand becomes smaller at lower temperature as predicted by the nonlinear Meissner effect. Both YBa2Cu3O7and Tl2Ba2CaCu2O8resonators of the same structure exhibit similar temperature dependence in the second order with second order remaining high at lower temperature. The YBa2Cu3O7sample has lower third-order intermodulation distortion with a pronounced peak atTC.

Abstract. Homonuclear decoupling sequences in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) under magic-angle spinning (MAS) show experimentally significantly larger residual line width than expected from Floquet theory to second order. We present an in-depth theoretical and experimental analysis of the origin of the residual line width under decoupling based on frequency-switched Lee–Goldburg (FSLG) sequences. We analyze the effect of experimental pulse-shape errors (e.g., pulse transients and B1-field inhomogeneities) and use a Floquet-theory-based description of higher-order error terms that arise from the interference between the MAS rotation and the pulse sequence. It is shown that the magnitude of the third-order auto term of a single homo- or heteronuclear coupled spin pair is important and leads to significant line broadening under FSLG decoupling. Furthermore, we show the dependence of these third-order error terms on the angle of the effective field with the B0 field. An analysis of second-order cross terms is presented that shows that the influence of three-spin terms is small since they are averaged by the pulse sequence. The importance of the inhomogeneity of the radio-frequency (rf) field is discussed and shown to be the main source of residual line broadening while pulse transients do not seem to play an important role. Experimentally, the influence of the combination of these error terms is shown by using restricted samples and pulse-transient compensation. The results show that all terms are additive but the major contribution to the residual line width comes from the rf-field inhomogeneity for the standard implementation of FSLG sequences, which is significant even for samples with a restricted volume.
