TL;DR: The induction of the enzymes except for catalase and increase in the levels of ascorbate and total carotenoids in response to the stress conditions indicate that they play an important role in the protection of higher plants from the damaging effects of toxic active species.
Abstract: Changes in activities of the enzymes involved in the metabolism of active oxygen species were followed in homogenates prepared from wheat leaves (Triticum aestivum L.) exposed to strong visible light (600 W m-2). The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase, and monodehydroascorbate reductase increased significantly on prolonged illumination of the leaves, indicating an increase in the rate of generation of active oxygen species. This increase was further exacerbated when high light stress was combined with low temperature (8[deg]C). Our results indicate that the increase in activities of SOD and ascorbate peroxidase involved de novo protein synthesis that was sensitive to the nuclear-directed protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide. The activity of catalase, on the other hand, decreased on exposure to strong light, which could be due to its photolability, particularly at lower temperatures. Ascorbate and total carotenoid contents also increased on light treatment of the leaves. The induction of the enzymes except for catalase and increase in the levels of ascorbate and total carotenoids in response to the stress conditions indicate that they play an important role in the protection of higher plants from the damaging effects of toxic active species.

TL;DR: This work defines a variant of the model of Bak, Tang, and Wiesenfeld of self-organized critial behavior by introducing a preferred direction and characterize the critical state and determines the critical exponents exactly in arbitrary dimension d.
Abstract: We define a variant of the model of Bak, Tang, and Wiesenfeld of self-organized critial behavior by introducing a preferred direction. We characterize the critical state and, by establishing equivalence to a voter model, determine the critical exponents exactly in arbitrary dimension d. The upper critical dimension for this model is three. In two dimensions the model is equivalent to an earlier solved special case of directed percolation.

TL;DR: A recombinant, polyhedrin-positive Autographa californica NPV is constructed that is orally infectious and expresses an insect-selective toxin (AalT) isolated from the scorpion Androctonus australis under the control of the p10 promoter.
Abstract: Recombinant nuclear polyhedrosis viruses (NPVs) expressing insect-selective toxins, hormones, or enzymes could enhance their insecticidal properties. We have constructed a recombinant, polyhedrin-positive Autographa californica NPV (AcNPV) that is orally infectious and expresses an insect-selective toxin (AalT), isolated from the scorpion Androctonus australis, under the control of the p10 promoter. Bioassays with the recombinant baculovirus on 2nd instar larvae of Heliothis virescens demonstrated a significant decrease in the time to kill (LT50 88.0 hours) compared to wild-type AcNPV (LT50 125 hours). Production of AalT was confirmed by western blot analysis of larval hemolymph from infected H. virescens, and bioassays with larvae of Sarcophaga falculata.
