This chapter is a general introduction to the development and adoption of Electronic-Government or e-government (EG). It addresses the background of EG, its origin and importance, stages of growth, and stakeholders. To be better able to conceptualize the functions, characteristics, and development stages of EG, some related issues, concepts, and paradigms must be understood. This chapter, designed to fill that need, deals with the introductory concepts of EG and related issues. It consists of four sections; section 3 has two sub-sections.

Oil yield losses in sunflower (cv. Peredovic) caused by rust infection (Puccinia helianthi) were greatly influenced by the growth stage of the plant when infection occurred and by the intensity of infection. Simulated epidemics produced under greenhouse conditions, where plants were first inoculated at the vegetative, budding, anthesis or seed development stages of growth and thereafter at 10 day intervals, resulted in reductions in oil yield of 85, 73, 38 and 13% respectively relative to those in uninoculated controls. In contrast, plants inoculated once only at each of these growth stages showed reductions in 011 yield of 13, 42, 35 and 10% respectively. When plants were inoculated at the vegetative stage and thereafter at 10, 20 and 40 day intervals, the reductions in oil yield were 85, 79 and 64% respectively relative to uninoculated controls. The reduction in oil yield of infected plants was caused by a reduction in the number of seeds produced per head, the weight of individual seeds and the percentage oil content of seeds. The effects of rust infection on other parameters showed similar trends to that on oil yield.

Stage Analysis

A relationship between phytoplankton and bacterioplankton has been observed in a laboratory experiment, simulating partial and complete upwelling conditions. Primary and bacterial productivity presented a similar pattern, with a three-stage development (growth, peak and decline in production). However, bacterial development stages did not occur simultaneously with the phytoplanktonic development, that is, the highest bacterial production rates occurred in the stages of growth and decline of the primary production, whilst the lowest values of bacterial productivity were simultaneous to the highest phytoplanktonic production stage. Analysis of data obtained in this experiment shows a close relationship between phytoplankton and bacteria, in which these organisms might be competing for inorganic nutrients in some moments, and bacteria might have, as an important source of carbon, the particulate or dissolved organic matter coming from the phytoplankton. Besides that, bacteria might play an important role in the initial stages of phytoplankton blooms, when they might be one of the main conditioning agents of the waters that have just upwelled, allowing the plain phytoplanktonic development.

Ion Beam Sputter Deposition

The in situ electron microscope technique has been shown to be a powerful method for investigating the nucleation and growth of thin films formed by vacuum vapor deposition. The nucleation and early stages of growth of metal deposits formed by ion beam sputter-deposition are now being studied by the in situ technique.A duoplasmatron ion source and lens assembly has been attached to one side of the universal chamber of an RCA EMU-4 microscope and a sputtering target inserted into the chamber from the opposite side. The material to be deposited, in disc form, is bonded to the end of an electrically isolated copper rod that has provisions for target water cooling. The ion beam is normal to the microscope electron beam and the target is placed adjacent to the electron beam above the specimen hot stage, as shown in Figure 1.

Our understanding of the structure and the formation of inorganic minerals in the bivalve shells has been considerably advanced by the use of electron microscope. However, very little is known about the ultrastructure of valves in the larval stage of the oysters. The present study examines the developmental changes which occur between the time of conception to the early stages of Dissoconch in the Crassostrea virginica(Gmelin), focusing on the initial deposition of inorganic crystals by the oysters.The spawning was induced by elevating the temperature of the seawater where the adult oysters were conditioned. The eggs and sperm were collected separately, then immediately mixed for the fertilizations to occur. Fertilized animals were kept in the incubator where various stages of development were stopped and observed. The detailed analysis of the early stages of growth showed that CaCO3 crystals(aragonite), with orthorhombic crystal structure, are deposited as early as gastrula stage(Figuresla-b). The next stage in development, the prodissoconch, revealed that the crystal orientation is in the form of spherulites.

SummaryAn account is given of the principles of lymph node dosimetry in radioisotope therapy with Lipiodol 131J. After a general introduction, exact data on the concentrations reached by the radionuclide in the lymph nodes, liver, spleen, thyroid and blood of patients subjected to this treatment are reported. Finally mention is made of a number of particularly interesting autopsy findings.
