The purpose of this article is to provide insight into the efficacy of the corporate culture idea to improved performance in academic marketing departments. All departments have a culture. The challenge is to formulate a healthy and viable culture. Abbreviated case examples are included to demonstrate contrasting cultures.

The addition to the diet daily of 10% (v/w) of a high level (28 × 109 cells) of a viable culture consisting of two strains of beta hemolytic enterococci sensitive to 10 and 30 μgm./ml. of chlortetracycline HCl respectively caused a highly significant reduction in growth of chicks. The reduction in growth was accompanied by an increase in numbers of enterococci in the ceca and a decrease in coliforms in the ileum and ceca as well as a decrease in lactobacilli in all segments of the intestine examined. The addition of 40 gm. of crystalline chlortetracycline HCl to the diet overcame the reduction in growth caused by the high level of dietary enterococci and resulted in a decrease in numbers of enterococci in the ileum and ceca.

AbstractThree races of Pseudomonas syringaepv. tabaciTox+ (wildfire) (races 0, 1 and 2) and two races of Tox- (angular leaf spot) (races 1 and 2) have been confirmed on tobacco in Zimbabwe (Zim). Very few cultivars with no resistance to Ps. syringaepv. tabaci are grown commercially and race 0 has not been isolated since 1996. Because we no longer have a viable culture of race 0, we obtained an isolate of race 0 from Kentucky (0 KY), USA in January 2000. We included this isolate in race tests on standard indicator cultivars K E1 (susceptible to all races), KM 10 (resistance to race 0 derived from Nicotianalongiflora), WZ (resistance to races 0 and 1 derived from N. rustica) and a hybrid, K 35 (resistance to races 0 and 0 and 1 derived from N. longiflora and N. rustica respectively). Two leaves on 10-week-old seedlings were inoculated with a bacterial suspension (106 colony forming units [cfu] per mL) by spraying selected areas until just watersoaked and incubating the plants at 28 C and 70% RH for 10 d. The reaction to race 0, measured as lesion diameter, was different from that previously obtained with race 0 (Zim). Races 0 and 1 (Zim) are avirulent on WZ but race 0 (KY) was virulent. Further isolates of race 0 were received from Maryland (MD) and Tennessee (TN). The TN isolates overcame resistance derived from N. longiflora and N. rustica, except where both sets of genes were present in the same cultivar. Reactions have been variable with the race 0 (MD) isolate suggesting it is a mixed culture. We conclude that there are at least four races of Ps. syringaepv. tabaciTox+ worldwide and race 0 (KY) should be designated race 3. On all cultivars, race 2 consistently caused the largest lesions.

The effects of milk fermented by Lactobacillus acidophilus on growth of Swiss albino mice were tested. Mice were fed a stock diet and drinking water containing one of these milk additions: no supplementary milk (control), 10% liquid skim milk, 10% milk containing a viable culture of L. acidophilus, or 10% milk fermented by L. acidophilus. After 4 weeks mice receiving the fermented acidophilus milk had consumed more total feed and gained more weight than had the control mice, but not more than those fed the liquid skim milk or the nonfermented acidophilus milk.

Protoplasts were isolated from the lamina of greenhouse grown Nepenthes ampullaria and the hybrid N. ‘Rokko’ Exotica in order to develop a protocol for protoplast isolation suitable for wild species of Nepenthes. Various molarities utilizing mannitol or sorbitol and different enzyme mixtures and concentrations as well as incubation times were evaluated to maximize protoplast yield and viability.  The most effective treatment, a 4 hrs incubation at 40 rpm and 25°C in a solution consisting of 0.5 M sorbitol, 5% cellulase ‘Onozuka’ R-10, 0.5% macerozyme R-10, and 0.3% pectolyase Y-23, generated 4.35 × 106 protoplasts/ gfw of which 62.1% were viable.  Culture was attempted in respect of  regeneration of the cell wall, however, no cell division was observed.

Connection with and separation from one another is a productive alternative conceptualization of what is known cross-culturally and in the social sciences as “face.” It follows that conceptualizing relating as conjointly co-constituting operative interpretings of both connection and separation is equivalent to conceptualizing relating as conjointly co-constituting face. Constituting connection with and separation from one another is a viable culture-general conceptualization of face, as apparent in considering the culture-specific construals of the dialectic in several cultural groups. Chapter 8 provides a formal statement of Face Constituting Theory, and against that background examines how researchers go about “finding face” in social practices in everyday interacting, compares the theory with six prior accounts of face, and considers participants’ evaluations of their interpretings of relating and face, of threat, and of im/politeness.
