Quick Bibliography Series Bibliographies in the Quick Bibliography Series of the National
Agricultural Library, are intended primarily for
current awareness, and as the title of the series implies, are not
indepth exhaustive bibliographies on any given subject. However,
the citations are a substantial resource for recent investigations
on a given topic. They also serve the purpose of bringing the
literature of agriculture to the interested user who, in many
cases, could not access it by any other
means. The bibliographies are derived from computerized on-line
searches of the AGRICOLA data base. Timeliness of topic and
evidence of extensive interest are the selection criteria.
The author/searcher determines the purpose, length, and search
strategy of the Quick Bibliography. Information regarding
these is available upon request from the author/searcher.
Copies of this bibliography may be made or used for
distribution without prior approval. The inclusion or
omission of a particular publication or citation may not be
construed as endorsement or disapproval.

Acclimation of photosynthesis to elevated CO2 in five C3 species.

Abstract: The effect of long-term (weeks to months) CO2
enhancement on (a) the gas-exchange characteristics, (b) the
content and activation state of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate
carboxylase (rubisco), and (c) leaf nitrogen, chlorophyll, and dry
weight per area were studied in five C3 species (Chenopodium album,
Phaseolus vulgaris, Solanum tuberosum, Solanum melongena, and
Brassica oleracea) grown at CO2 partial pressures of 300 or 900 to
1000 microbars. Long-term exposure to elevated CO2 affected the CO2
response of photosynthesis in one of three ways: (a) the initial
slope of the CO2 response was unaffected, but the photosynthetic
rate at high CO2 increased (S. tuberosum); (b) the initial slope
decreased but the CO2-saturated rate of photosynthesis was little
affected (C. album, P. vulgaris); (c) both the initial slopes and
the CO2-saturated rate of photosynthesis decreased (B. oleracea, S.
melongena). In all five species, growth at high CO2 increased the
extent to which photosynthesis was stimulated following a decrease
in the partial pressure of O2 or an increase in measurement CO2
above 600 microbars. This stimulation indicates that a limitation
on photosynthesis by the capacity to regenerate orthophosphate was
reduced or absent after acclimation to high CO2. Leaf nitrogen per
area either increased (S. tuberosum, S. melongena) or was little
changed by CO2 enhancement. The content of rubisco was lower in
only two of the five species, yet its activation state was 19% to
48% lower in all five species following longterm exposure to high
CO2. These results indicate that during growth in CO2-enriched air,
leaf rubisco content remains in excess of that required to support
the observed photosynthetic rates.

Acute ozone stress on eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides Bartr.)

Abstract: The effect of acute ozone exposure of eastern cottonwood
(Populus deltoides Bartr.) on the survivorship, reproduction, and
development of the aphid Chaitophorus populicola Thomas (Homoptera:
Aphididae) was investigated. Cottonwoods were exposed to 397
microgram/m3 (0.20 ppm) ozone or charcoal-filtered air and infested
with aphids on leaf plastochron index 5, 40 h after fumigation.
Aphid performance was not significantly different on plants exposed
to ozone compared with charcoal-filtered air-treated control
plants. These data do not support the notion that aphid performance
will directly increase on air pollution-stressed plants. We also
examined settling and feeding preference of aphids for cottonwood
leaves of different developmental ages. Aphids significantly
preferred leaf plastochron index 5 to all other leaf ages. These
data support hypotheses relating aphid leaf preference to stages of
leaf development. Reproduction of the cottonwood leaf rust fungus
(Melampsora medusae Thum.) and the imported willow leaf beetle
(Plagiodera versicolora Laicharting) are reduced on ozone-fumigated
plants (reported elsewhere). If aphid populations are affected by
competition with these cottonwood pests for leaf resources, then
aphid pest potential may actually increase in areas characterized
by episodic ozone concentrations because of ozone-induced decreases
in populations of M. medusae and P. versicolora.

Adequacy of interval estimates of yield responses to ozone
estimated from NCLAN data.

Estimation; Variance; Yield response functions
Abstract: Relative yield losses from O3 have been estimated by the
National Crop Loss Assessment Network (NCLAN) using a nonlinear
Weibull response model. The estimated losses were presented in
terms of confidence interval estimates based on first-order linear
approximations of variances and normality of estimates. Such
interval estimates (Wald estimates) from nonlinear models can be
inadequate. Nine Weibull response equations estimated from NCLAN
studies were used to assess the adequacy of Wald confidence
interval estimates by comparison with interval estimates based on
the likelihood ratio test. Three response equations from individual
studies were used for illustration of second-order adjustments to
the Wald estimates and the use of meaures of parameter-effects
curvature as flags for cases where linear approximations may be
inadequate. The Wald interval estimates were clearly inadequate in
two of the three individual studies, which had been chosen to
represent cases most likely to show inadequacy because of limited
coverage of the response curve and/or high variability. In the
third study, which had good coverage of the response curve and
relatively low variability, the Wald confidence intervals were
nearly identical to the likelihood ratio intervals. Measures of
parameter effects curvature identified the two cases where the
linear approximation was inadequate and showed whether the second-
order adjustments would result in acceptable confidence intervals.
Comparisons suggsted that Wald confidence interval estimates
provided satisfactory approximations for NCLAN response curves that
had been computed from data involving more than one experiment, and
even for individual experiments where there was adequate coverage
of the response curve and moderate variability.

Abstract: Polyamine metabolism was examined in tobacco (Nicotiana
tabacum L.) exposed to a single ozone treatment (5 or 7 hours) and
then postcultivated in pollutant-free air. The levels of free and
conjugated putrescine were rapidly increased in the ozone-tolerant
cultivar Bel B and remained high for 3 days. This accumulation was
preceded by a transient rise of L-arginine decarboxylase (ADC, EC
4.1.1.19) activity. The ozone-sensitive cultivar Bel W3 showed a
rapid production of ethylene and high levels of
1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid after 1 to 2 hours of
exposure. Induction of putrescine levels and ADC activity was weak
in this cultivar and was observed when necrotic lesions developed.
Leaf injury occurred in both lines when the molar ratio of
putrescine to 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid or ethylene
fell short of a certain threshold value.
Monocaffeoyl-putrescine, an effective scavenger for oxyradicals,
was detected in the apoplastic fluid of the leaves of cv Bel B and
increased upon exposure to ozone. This extracellular localization
could allow scavenging of ozone-derived oxyradicals at the first
site of their generation. Induction of either polyamine or ethylene
pathways may represent a control mechanism for inhibition or
promotion of lesion formation and thereby contribute to the
disposition of plants for ozone tolerance.

Abstract: Chronic O3 stress can limit wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
yields and kernel quality. Field studies were conducted at the USDA
Beltsville Agric. Res. Center (BARC) during 1984 and 1985 to assess
the effects of low-level chronic O3 stress during anthesis and
kernel fill on soft red winter wheat. Six O3 treatments, ambient
air plot control, charcoal-filtered air (CF), nonfiltered air (NF),
NF + 20, NF + 40, and NF + 80 nL O3 L(-1), were applied 4 h day-1,
5 day wk-1 beginning 10 d preanthesis through maturity. Biomass,
grain yield, kernel weight, kernels per spike, harvest index, flour
protein, alkaline water retention capacity, particle size index,
and baking quality of four wheat genotypes were examined at
physiological maturity. Ambient O3 concentrations were higher and
environmental conditions were cool and wet in 1984 compared to
1985. In 1984, NF + 80 nL 03 L-1 treatments significantly reduced
all measured characteristics except kernels per spike. In 1985,
significant O3 effects were not observed. Significant genotype
effects were observed in each year with the exception of the
harvest index and kernels per spike in 1984. Polynomial regression
analyses indicated a decrease in biomass, grain yield, and kernel
weight at accumulative oxidant exposure (AOX) values above 5.1
micro liter L L-1 h. The results indicate that brief 4-h exposure
periods above 60 nL O3 L-1 during anthesis and grain fill can
reduce yield and kernel quality.

Descriptors: Forest ecology; Climatic change; Temperature; Air

Abstract: Factors governing long-term change in global temperature
are reviewed. The magnitude and rate of change in global
temperature resulting from current increases in the concentration
of atmospheric greenhouse gases are considered in relation to their
impact on forests. Movement in forest zone boundaries at a rate of
2.5 km year-1 are possible, which is nearly ten time the rate
forests have been known to move by natural reproduction. Climate
models indicate that increased global temperature will affect
rainfall distribution, lead to more frequent and more severe storms
and increase climatic variability. Consequences for the world's
forests include increased frequencies of fire and blow-down, and
widespread decline. Increased atmospheric CO2 concentrations may
increase forest growth where the effect is not offset by reduced
precipitation, but the overall effect of anticipated changes in
global climate is likely to be widespread loss of forests.

Abstract: The assessment of air quality standards for forest
ecosystems requires proper knowledge about concentration-effect
relations of air pollutants for tree species. In this study, 2-yr-
old Douglas fir seedlings [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco]
were exposed to 23, 81, and 169 microgram O3/m3 during 8 h/d, 5
d/wk for a period of 4 wk. After exposure, the trees were placed in
in atmosphere containing 14CO2. Release of 14CO2 in the root/soil
compartment was analyzed once a day and was regarded as an index of
transport and utilization of 14C photosynthates. Respiratory
release of 14C was temporarily inhibited by O3 during the first
days following exposure to the air pollutant. Within 2 wk after the
O3 treatment, 14CO2 in the root/soil respiration was the same in
all treatments, indicating that trees were recovering from 03
injury.

Abstract: Four-week-old bean plants (cultivar California Light Red
Kidney) were spray inoculated with rifampin-resistant Xanthomonas
campestris pv. phaseoli to establish a leaf-surface population on
one leaf and a lesion on another leaf of each plant. In one
experiment, plants were exposed to 0 or 1 microgram F m-3 (as
hydrogen fluoride) continuously or 3 or 5 microgram F m-3
intermittently for 15 days. In the other experiment, plants were
exposed continuously to 0 or 1 microgram F m-3 for 15 days or 3
microgram F m-3 for 5 days or 5 microgram F m-3 for 3 days after
inoculation. Fluoride treatments in both experiments resulted in a
total pollutant dose of 15 microgram F m-3 days. Diameters of
lesions were measured and leaves were sampled periodically to
determine fluoride accumulation. Intermittent exposure treatments
had no effect on final lesion growth. However, lesion size and
expansion increased linearly with increasing fluoride in foliage.
Intermittent fluoride exposure had no effect on growth of epiphytic
populations of the bacterium. The development of lesions and leaf-
surface populations of the pathogen exposed continuously were not
affected by the exposure regime or the concentration of fluoride in
air or foliage.

Abstract: The process of sexual reproduction in flowering plants
oftern exposes pollen grains to the environment and the potential
effects fo atmospheric deposition. Experiments were designed to
determine whether simulated acid rain treatments just before or
after pollination could adversely influence reproductive processes
and seed set in corn (Zea mays L.). Container-grown corn with
sexually mature tassels and ears were exposed once to simulated
rain at four pH levels for 1 h, beginning 1 h after artificial
pollination or ending 10 min before artificial pollination. The
single, artificial pollination deposited an average of 85 pollen
grains per silk. Simulated rain treatment at pH 4.5, 3.5, or 2.5
after pollination reduced the percentage seed set of treated ears
7, 29, and 34%, respectively, as compared with pH 5.5. Simulated
rain at pH 5.5 after pollination reduced seed set 24% as compared
with no-rain controls. The pH of simulated rain applied before
pollination did not affect seed set, and pH 5.5 rain applied before
pollination had no effects on seed set compared to no-rain
controls. Microscopic observations indicated that pollen
germination and pollen tube penetration of the silk were completed
by the time the rain treatments began 1 h after pollination. This
infers that simulated acid rain influenced pollen tubes after they
entered the silks. These results suggest that plant sexual
reproduction could be adversely affected by acidic precipitation at
pH levels observed for rain events in eastern North America.

Abstract: Nodulated cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp. cv Vita
3:Bradyrhizobium CB 756) plants were cultured with their whole root
system or crown root nodulation zone maintained for periods from 5
to 69 days after planting in atmospheres containing a range of pO2
(1-80%, v/v) while the rest of the plant grew in normal air. Growth
(dry matter yield) and N2 fixation were largely unaffected by pO2
from 10 to 40%. Decrease in fixation at pO2 below 5% was due to
lower nodulation and nodule mass and, at pO2 above 60%, to a fall
in specific N2-fixing activity of nodules. Root:shoot ratios were
significantly lower at pO2 below 2.5%. The effect of pO2 on
nitrogenase activity (acetylene reduction), both of whole nodulated
root systems and crown root nodulation zones, varied with plant age
but was generally lower at supra-and subambient extremes of O2. H2
evolution showed a sharp optimum at 20% O2 but was at most 4% of
total nitrogenase activity. The ratio of CO2 evolved to substrate
(C2H2+H+) reduced by crown root nodulation zones was constant (6
moles CO2 per mole substrate reduced) from 2.5 to 60% O2 but at
levels below 2.5 and above 80% O2 reached values between 20 and 30
moles CO2 per mole substrate reduced. Effects of long-term growth
with nonambient pO2 on adaptation and efficiency of functioning of
nodules are discussed.

Abstract: Nodulated cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp. cv Vita
3: Bradyrhizobium strain CB756) and soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.
cv White Eye: Bradyrhizobium strain CB1809) were grown with their
root systems maintained in a flowing gas stream containing a range
of pO2 (1-80%, v/v) in N2 for up to 28 days after planting. At the
extremes of sub- and supra-ambient pO2, the levels of leghemoglobin
(Lb) in nodules were reduced. However, neither the proportional
composition of Lb component proteins (eight in soybean, three in
cowpea) nor their oxidation state was affected by pO2. Short-term
changes in pO2 (transferring plants grown with sub- or supra-
ambient pO2 in the rhizosphere to air or vice versa) caused a
significant decline in Lb content and, in cowpea but not soybean,
where pO2 was increased, a higher percentage of oxidation of Lb.
Combining data on changes in Lb level of cowpea nodules grown in
sub-ambient pO2 With those for their structural adaptation to an
under supply of O2 indicated that, despite the nodules having a
lower level of Lb, the amount per infected cell was increased by up
to twofold and per bacteroid up to fivefold (in those from 1% O2)
compared to those grown in air. Progressive decline in pO2 resulted
in a progressive increase on this basis, indicating a close
relationship between Lb content and the adaptation of nodule
functioning to external O2 level.

Sulphorm, a combination of the two previously mentioned substances,
applied in the same concentration, did not inhibit nodule formation
to a like extent. No beneficial effects were noticeable in the
crops from any of the plats, except with Sulphorm which gave about
20% more seed than was the average of three controls.

Abstract: Mature, field-grown Vitis vinifera L. grapevines grown
in opentop chambers were exposed to either charcoal-filtered air or
ambient ozone partial pressures throughout the growing season.
individual leaves also were exposed to ozone partial pressures of
0.2, 0.4, or 0.6 micropascals per pascal for 5 hours. No visual
ozone damage was found on leaves exposed to any of the treatments.
Chronic exposure to ambient O(3) partial pressures reduced net CO2
assimilation rate (A) between 5 and 13% at various times throughout
the season when compared to the filtered treatment. Exposure of
leaves to 0.2 micropascals per pascal O(3) for 5 hours had no
significant effect on A; however, A was reduced 84% for leaves
exposed to 0.6 micropascals per pascal O(3) when compared to the
controls after 5 hours. Intercellular CO2 partial pressure (cl) was
lower for leaves exposed to 0.2 micropascals per pascal O(3) when
compared to the controls, while cl of the leaves treated with 0.6
micropascals per pascal of O(3) increased during the fumigation.
The long-term effects of ambient O(3) and short-term exposure to
acute levels of O(3) reduced grape leaf photosynthesis due to a
reduction in both stomatal and mesophyll conductances.

Abstract: Gas exchange characteristics of loblolly pine seedlings
were measured in the third growing season of ozone fumigations to
determine the effects of long-term ozone exposure on photosynthetic
capacity. Light and CO2 response curves indicated significant
decreases of 21% and 27%, respectively, in light-saturated and CO2-
saturated photosynthetic capacities at 2 X ambient ozone (92 ppb
12-hr seasonal mean) compared to charcoal-filtered (CF) air,
approximately 0.5 X ambient ozone (29 ppb 12-hr seasonal mean).
Differences in the response curves suggest changes in light-
harvesting and biochemical efficiencies as well as changes in the
activity of RuBP Carboxylase and the regeneration rate of RuBP.
Chlorophyll and carotenoid conditions per unit leaf area were
decreased at the high ozone treatment in older flushes. Stomatal
resistance limited photosynthesis by about 29% in both CF and 2 X
ambient ozone treated plants, suggesting that chronic ozone
exposure did not affect stomatal control in loblolly pine.

Abstract: Acute SO2 effects on vegetation are less likely because
large point sources comply with ambient air quality standards and
emission limits. The remaining concern is for direct effects of
SO2, which might occur from exposure to intermittent, subacute
dosages. Limited data exist for assessing chronic effects because
experimental exposure regimes used in most effect studies on
soybean [Glycine max. (L.) Merr.] are from field and laboratory
exposure regimes consisting of SO2, NO2, and O3 dosages with a high
degree of uncertainty. Chronic exposure of 'Essex' soybean to 0.06
microliter L-1 (0.06 ppm) O3 for 8 h d-1, 5 d wk-1, for 18 wk in
the greenhouse caused a 34% reduction in yield compared to
charcoal-filtered air. Sulfur dioxide in combination with O3 and
NO2 caused no additional reduction in yield, but lower dosages of
SO2 increased yields compared to The O3 treatment, apparently by
retarding O3-induced premature senescence. Emissions from a power
plant had no adverse effect on yield on the cultivar Essex during
a 3-yr field study (1981-1983).

Abstract: Glasshouse lettuce (cvs Pascal and Talent) was grown
during late autumn and early winter in an atmosphere polluted with
nitrogen oxides (NOx) generated from direct-fired natural gas
burners used for CO2 enrichment and warm air heating (high CO2 +
NOx treatment). Concentrations of 0.3-0.4 vpm NOx were detected
during the daytime when near 3-fold CO2 enrichment (1 000 vpm) was
practised without heating. In cold weather, the CO2 and NOx levels
were dependent on the amount of heating required to maintain
minimum temperatures of 5 degrees C (night) and 7 degrees C (day).
Concentrations of between 2000-5000 vpm CO2 and 1-2.5 vpm NOx were
recorded at
