Development of two annual medics (Medicago scutellata cv. Robinson and M. truncatula cv. Jemalong) was recorded under four controlled day/night temperature regimes of 12/5°, 18/11°, 24/17° and 30/23°C. Equations expressing the fractional daily increments of development as a function of daily mean temperatures were derived from the results. From these equations and field temperature data, predictions of development in the field were compared with observations from 24 serial monthly plantings at Warwick in southern Queensland. Predictions were satisfactory for all stages from planting to first mature pod for cv. Robinson and for all stages except flowering for cv. Jemalong. Inclusion of a vernalization constraint with daily minimum temperatures improved the prediction of flowering, but unknown factors delayed this stage in plantings of cv. Jemalong from January to April.

Experiments were conducted in controlled environments to determine the effects of high temperatures on grain development and yield in wheat. Two Australian and three Indian cultivars of wheat were exposed, from a week after anthesis until maturity, to "day" temperatures of 25, 28, and 3l°C, and "night" temperatures of 9 and 12°C. There was a mean reduction in yield of 16%' for the 6° rise in day temperature, but the cultivars did not differ significantly in their response to these temperatures. There were no significant effects of night temperature on grain weight, but stem weight was less at 12°C. Senescence was hastened only slightly by high day temperature, and there were no differential effects between cultivars in this respect.In a subsidiary experiment one Indian and five Australian cultivars were subjected to three day-night temperature regimes (24/19°, 27/22°, and 30/25°C). Highly significant but complex interactions were established between temperature regime and cultivar. A growth analysis for the Australian cultivars Ridley and Diadem indicated that the developing grain of Ridley had a greater capacity for growth than that of Diadem from the earliest stage. This, together with the confirmation of grain size as a very stable characteristic for all the varieties, points to the developmental and synthetic activity of the grain as an important determinant of grain yield. The relevance of this study to the production of wheat in India is briefly discussed.

Plant Characteristics

A method that allows the effect of temperature treatments on plant quality to be quantified is described. The proposed method is based on the analysis of temperature regions for plant quality characteristics and enables an easier and more precise analysis of the influence of day and night temperature on plant growth and development. Plant quality may be evaluated by the combination of any number of plant characteristics. The proposed method can assist growers in determining what temperature regimes are necessary to produce acceptable-quality crops on specified days.

A growth cabinet study was conducted to evaluate the effect of temperature on the distribution of several herbicides in quackgrass. Uniformly labeled14C-sucrose and the radiolabeled herbicides glyphosate, sethoxydim, cloproxydim, the butyl ester of fluazifop, the methyl ester of haloxyfop, and the ethyl ester of quizalofop were applied to quackgrass grown at three day / night temperature regimes (10/5, 20/15, and 30/25 C). Seven days after treatment the plants were harvested, lyophilized, and later sectioned, mapped, and oxidized in preparation for14C quantification. Quackgrass rhizome growth was more vigorous at 20/15 than 30/25 or 10/5 C. of the herbicides tested, haloxyfop was the most inhibitory to rhizome growth. Temperature increases from 10/5 to 20/15 or from 20/15 to 30/25 C resulted in more translocation to shoots. Increasing temperature had various effects on translocation to rhizomes depending on the chemical applied. At all three temperature regimes, more14C was recovered from distal than basal buds in plants treated with14C-sethoxydim. In contrast, at all three temperature regimes, similar amounts of14C were recovered from the distal and basal buds of plants treated with 14-C-sucrose.

Eight edamame [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] cultivars were evaluated in the field in 2002, 2003, and 2004 to determine their suitability for growing in central Pennsylvania. Each cultivar was direct seeded and data collected included plant populations (percentage of stand) and marketable yields. Plant populations ranged from less than 1% to 81% and, with one exception in 2002, were below 80%. Eighty percent plant populations or higher are considered optimal. Based on sub-optimal plant populations, none of the edamame cultivars evaluated in the field were determined to be suitable for direct seeding in central Pennsylvania. The effect of temperature on seedling emergence, and therefore, plant populations was then studied. Four of the edamame cultivars used in the field trial were evaluated in growth chambers programmed with varying day/night temperature regimes. Seedling emergence varied by cultivar and was generally below 80% with two exceptions. When grown in a 21.1 °C day/15.6 °C night temperature regime, `Butterbeans' and `Early Hakucho' exceeded 80% seedling emergence. These methods could be used to produce transplants; however, the economic feasibility of doing so should first be evaluated. In the field trial, conclusions on marketable yields were unattainable because soybean plants are known to compensate in yield for plants missing in sub-optimal plant populations. Plant compensation and sub-optimal plant populations rendered yield comparisons between cultivars questionable. The issue of sub-optimal seedling emergence and plant population needs to be studied further before suitability of growing these edamame cultivars in central Pennsylvania can be determined.

Ethephon Treatment

The effect of temperature on the ability of 5-chloro-3-methyl-4-nitro-1H-pyrazole (CMNP) and ethephon to induce ethylene evolution and abscission of mature fruit and leaves was determined using 3-year-old potted `Hamlin' orange [Citrus sinensis (L.) Osb.] trees in environment-controlled growth rooms in seasons 2001-02 and 2002-03. Ethylene evolution and abscission of CMNP or ethephon-treated fruit and ethephon-treated leaves were highly temperature dependent. Fruit detachment force (FDF) and fruit ethylene evolution were not affected by application of ethephon at 200 mg·L-1 or CMNP at 200 mg·L-1 when air temperature was 10 °C for ethephon treatment or ≤15.6 °C for CMNP treatment. However, ethylene evolution of CMNP or ethephon-treated fruit increased sharply, and FDF decreased drastically as temperature increased from 10 to 26.7 °C for ethephon treatment or from 15.6 to 26.7 °C for CMNP treatment. Several 10 hour day/14 hour night temperature regimes were explored to determine the effect of varying daily and nightly temperatures on efficacy and ethylene evolution. At least 3 days of exposure to 21/10 °C were required for CMNP to effectively loosen fruit, whereas only one day of exposure to 26.7/15.6 °C was enough to induce similar changes. At 21/10 °C, CMNP significantly reduced FDF to<25 N and markedly enhanced fruit ethylene evolution, regardless of interruption by 1 day of low temperature at 10/10 °C in the first 5 d after application. Ethephon had no significant effect on leaf ethylene evolution and leaf abscission when temperature was 10 °C, but caused a marked increase in both leaf ethylene evolution and leaf abscission as temperature increased from 10 to 26.7 °C. CMNP did not stimulate leaf ethylene evolution and leaf abscission regardless of temperature. Chemical names used: 5-chloro-3-methyl-4-nitro-1 H-Pyrazole (CMNP); 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid (ethephon).

Eight edamame (Glycine max) cultivars were evaluated in the field in 2002, 2003, and 2004 to determine suitability for growing in central Pennsylvania. Data collection included plant populations (percent stand), marketable and unmarketable yields and edamame pod and bean quality indicators. Plant populations varied by year and cultivar and were generally below 80%. The effect of temperature on seedling emergence, and therefore plant populations, was evaluated for four edamame cultivars by using growth chambers programmed with varying day/night temperature regimes. Seedling emergence varied by cultivar and was generally below 80% with two exceptions. When grown in a 70/60 °F day/night temperature regime, `Butterbeans', and `Early Hakucho' exceeded 80% seedling emergence. In the field trial, plant populations affected marketable yields. Pod and bean quality were dependent on cultivar. Results indicated that `Butterbeans', `Early Hakucho', `Green Legend', `Shironomai', `Butterbaby', and `Lucky Lion' appear promising for growing in Pennsylvania based on pod and bean quality. However, the issue of poor seedling emergence and plant populations presents a major constraint to commercial production and needs to be studied further.

Influence Of Temperature On

The effect of temperature on two cytoplasmic male-sterility (CMS) systems in rape (Brassica napus L.) was investigated. These were the nap CMS system with cytoplasm which occurs in most Canadian cultivars and the pol CMS system with cytoplasm from the cultivar Polima. The day/night temperature regimes used were 22/16, 26/20 and 30/24 °C. Two floral characteristics, anther type and stamen length, were influenced by temperature treatments. Male sterility of both CMS systems was expressed consistently at the lowest temperature. The nap male-sterile plants became partially sterile at the second temperature and fully fertile at the highest temperature. The pol male-sterile plants were more stable and became partially sterile only at the highest temperature.Key words: Rape, Brassica napus L., CMS, temperature

Seed Yields

Plots sown in 1983 were used to examine the seed production and reserves (residual hardseeds) of 15 annual legumes over 5 years at Tamworth in northern New South Wales. Seed production characteristics were measured in 1983 for these annuals, and for 6 perennial legumes. After the annuals had set seed in 1983, an area of the plots was sprayed to prevent flowering in subsequent years, and the rates of decline in seed reserves were compared with those from areas that seeded annually. Seed yields of the perennials were often significantly lower than those of the annuals except Trifolium glomeratum. Seed yields of T. subterraneum var. subterraneum cvv. Seaton Park and Woogenellup were significantly higher than those of cv. Nungarin and T. subterrarzeum var. brachycalycinum cv. Clare. Seed numbers were lowest for Medicago scutellata cv. Sava among the annual medics, and for Nungarin among subterranean clovers. There was little relationship between the mean number of seeds produced from 1983-86 and maturity grading, and between seed numbers and relative dry matter yield. Seed reserves decreased over 5 years by more than 90% in the sprayed treatments of all species. This decrease was not continuous, with the largest declines occurring from December 1983 to August 1984. In the sprayed treatments of Seaton Park, Woogenellup, and Clare, and in both treatments of Astragalus hamosus cv. Ioman, Vicia dasycarpa var. villosa cv. Namoi, and T. hirtum cv. Hykon, none of the original 1983 seed was recovered in 1987. For the annual medics and Nungarin, the number of residual hardseeds in the sprayed treatments in 1987 was about 3-5% of the seed produced in 1983. From 1983 to 1987, seed numbers in the unsprayed treatments declined by 7040% for the annual medics and by 85-95% for Seaton Park, Woogenellup, and Clare. Long-term persistence of annual medics and Nungarin depended on seed production in most years and the maintenance of a high number of residual hardseeds in the soil. In contrast, the mid- and late-maturing subterranean clovers Woogenellup and Clare had low seed reserves and were dependent on seed production in most years for their continued regeneration.

Исследованы данные температуры области мезопаузы, полученные за период 2013-2018 гг. на станции Маймага (63.04N, 129.51E) и за период 2015-2018 гг. на станции Тикси (71.58 N, 128.77 E). В зимний период сезона наблюдений 2014-2015 характеристика активности внутренних гравитационных волн (ВГВ) gwимеет более низкие значения, чем в другие сезоны, а средненочная температура, наоборот, превышает аналогичные значения в другие сезоны. Для сопоставления рассматривались спутниковые данные температурных профилей полученные EOS MLS (Aura). После выделения и вычитания вклада гравитационной составляющей из температурных профилей EOS MLS для области над станцией Маймага заметно отличие в зимней стратопаузе сезона 2014-2015. В этот сезон в зимний период, с учетом вычета вклада флуктуаций температуры обусловленных ВГВ, наблюдается отсутствие резких потеплений в районе стратопаузы в отличие от остальных сезонов. Измерение параметров планетарных волн в течение периода 2015-2018 гг. совместных наблюдений на станциях Маймага и Тикси показали, что фазы наблюдаемых на обеих станциях волн совпадают, а амплитуды на станции Тикси несколько (12 К) превышают амплитуды на станции Маймага. The temperature data of the mesopause region obtained for the period 2013-2018 at the station Maimaga (63.04 N, 129.51 E) and for the period 2015-2018 at the station Tiksi (71.58 N, 128.77 E) was investigated. During the winter period of the 20142015 observation season, the characteristic of the internal gravity waves (IGW) activity sgw has lower values than in other seasons, and the average night temperature of the mesopause region, on the contrary, exceeds corresponding values in other seasons. For comparison, satellite data of temperature profiles obtained by EOS MLS (Aura) are given. After isolating and subtracting the contribution of the gravitaty waves from the EOS MLS temperature profiles for the region above the st. Maimaga, the difference in the winter stratopause of the 2014-2015 season is noticeable. In this season in winter there is a lack of sharp warming in the stratopause region, in contrast to other seasons, taking into account the deduction of the contribution of temperature fluctuations due to IGW. Measurement of the parameters of planetary waves during the period 2015-2018 of joint observations at Maimaga and Tiksi stations showed that the phases of the waves observed at both stations coincide, and the amplitudes at Tiksi station are several (1-2 K) higher than the amplitudes at Maimaga station.
