Foliar-applied 3-[p-(p-chlorophenoxy)phenyl]-1,1-dimethylurea (chloroxuron), chloroxuron with dodecyl ether polyethylene glycol surfactant, and dimethylamine salt of 4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)butyric acid (2,4-DB) effectively controlled cocklbur (Xanthium sp.) in soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr. ‘Hampton’ or ‘Lee’). While treatments caused crop injury, treated soybeans produced higher seed yields than untreated soybeans infested with cocklebur plants. Seed yields from soybeans growing free of cocklebur were not reduced by treatment with chloroxuron or chloroxuron with surfactant but in some cases were reduced by 2,4-DB treatment.

The examination of student group performance is a constant need as American higher education continues to expand and become more racially and ethnically diverse. Recent scholarship on the academic performance of Black students at elite colleges and universities has glossed over possible disparities among these students, particularly among different immigrant groups. The current study clarifies these differences in academic performance by examining four Black student groups at elite colleges and universities in the United States: native Blacks, Black immigrants from Africa, Black immigrants from the Caribbean and Latin America, and Black immigrants from other parts of the globe. The analyses point to many similarities and differences among the four Black student groups in their characteristics and influences on their academic performance in college such as gender, precollege friendships, high school academic preparation, college major, and closeness to Whites and Blacks. Additionally, this study found evidence of possible colorism among Black students at elite colleges.

Reducing the burden of Salmonella in broiler flocks presents a challenge for public health. Worldwide, grow-out broilers are routinely vaccinated to prevent or lessen clinical manifestation of other infections. In this exploratory analysis we tested if details of a routine vaccination programme delivered to conventional grow-out broilers were associated with the burden of Salmonella in the flock as it progressed through its production cycle. None of the flocks studied were vaccinated against Salmonella or received a competitive exclusion product. The flocks were reared on conventional grow-out farms in southeastern USA, and sampled in a prospective field observational study. We observed significant associations between the content and design of a grow-out vaccination programme targeting other infections and the probability of detecting Salmonella in the broiler flock at different time points throughout the production cycle. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first field report of such associations.

Affordable, high quality SiC wafers are very desirable for a variety of new technologies including GaN based lighting, RF, and high-power electronics based on wide band gap materials. At Litton Airtron we have a major effort in the growth and characterization of SiC. We will present data on 35, 50 and 75-mm diameter crystals. We are growing both n-type, semiinsulating 4H, 6H, and 15R material. A variety of characterization techniques are being used at Litton Airtron to determine wafer quality. These include Raman microscopy, digital wafer photography, and crossed polarizer images. Raman spectroscopy is an excellent probe of polytype and carrier concentration for n-type materials; in addition it can be done at room temperature and is sufficiently fast that it can be used in an industrial environment. The use of digital photography allows for the collection of images that can be quantitatively analyzed and archived.

Monilinia fructigena secretes one molecular form of endo-polygalacturonase (PG) in apple fruits infected by it. This PG, purified from culture filtrate to homogeneity, had an Mr of ca 33000 (SDS electrophoresis) and a pI value of ca 9·75. It had little or no effect on the structural integrity of potato tuber tissues, nor on the viability of apple callus cells in suspension. Modification of the lysine units of the purified enzyme by pyridoxal phosphate resulted in ca 50% decrease in PG activity. PG thus modified appeared to bind to an apple fibre preparation less than did PG not treated with pyridoxal phosphate. Lysine residues may thus be involved in subsites binding this PG to carboxyl groups in the polygalacturonate.

In this paper it is shown that if G is a periodic Abelian group and ∣ G ∣ ≥ 6, then the only automorphisms of the semigroup of finite nonempty complexes of G are induced by automorphisms of G.

In 1954 N. Kimura proved that each idempotent in a semigroup is contained in a unique maximal subgroup of the semigroup and that distinct maximal subgroups are disjoint [13] (or see [6, pp. 21–23]). This generalized earlier results of Schwarz [14] and Wallace [15]. These maximal subgroups are important in the study of semigroups. If G is a group, then the collection S(G) of nonempty complexes of G is a semigroup and it is natural to inquire what properties of G are inherited by the maximal subgroups of S(G). There seems to be very little literature devoted to this subject. In [5, Theorem 2], with certain hypotheses placed on an idempotent, it was shown that if G is a lattice-ordered group (“1-group”) then a maximal subgroup of S(G) containing an idempotent satisfying these conditions admits a natural lattice-order. The main result of this note (Theorem 1) is that if Gis a representable 1-group and E is a normal idempotent of S(G) and a dual ideal of the lattice G, then the maximal subgroup of S(G) containing E admits a representable lattice-order.
