White bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) plants were exposed to 15 pphm (v/v) ozone and/or 7.5, 15, 30, 45 or 60 pphm sulphur dioxide for 5 or 10 days in controlled environment facilities. Ozone-induced leaf injury consisted of bronze flecking on mature leaves of both species. Sulphur dioxide caused bifacial necrotic lesions on mature leaves of some white bean plants exposed to 60 pphm and had no effect on soybean leaves. The combined gases on white bean resulted in leaf injury symptoms consisting of yellow interveinal chlorosis which appeared several days later than did bronzing on corresponding leaves exposed to ozone alone. In soybean, characteristic ozone-induced lesions appeared on leaves of plants exposed to the combined gases but the onset of injury was several days later than in plants exposed only to ozone. Both injury ratings and plant weight data corresponded to the observed injury pattern.

A solution containing 0.5 p.p.m. of atrazine, simazine, igran, or GS-14254 with 0.2% triton-B 1956 was applied to the foliage of 11-day-old seedlings of bush beans, Phaseolus vulgaris L. cultivar Tender-green, growing on vermiculite in a controlled environment. The activities of nitrate reductase, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase, α-amylase, starch phosphorylase, and adenosine triphosphatase were determined 5,10, and 20 days after treatment. In general, the activity of each of the five enzymes was stimulated by the treatment. The results suggest that protein increase following the application of.s-triazines to bean plants may stem in part from an enhanced rate of amino acid formation resulting from the induced increment in nitrate reductase and transaminase activity. The application of these chemicals also creates a metabolic condition favorable for greater use of carbohydrates needed for nitrate reduction and protein synthesis, and as a source of organic acid synthesis.

McCall, Maple Presto, Maple Amber and OT80-3 soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) cultivars were evaluated under field conditions for their response to metribuzin. Maple Amber was found to be less tolerant than the other cultivars. In controlled environment chamber studies, injury to this cultivar was more severe on a sandy loam soil than on a clay loam soil. Fall applications of metribuzin, alone or tank-mixed with trifluralin, were tolerant to Maple Amber soybeans and such applications may offer a practical alternative to spring treatments for broad spectrum weed control in the less tolerant soybean cultivars grown in Manitoba.Key words: Metribuzin, trifluralin, preplant incorporation, fall treatments, soybean cultivars

Soybean consumption here in Indonesia continues to increase each year that is notaccompanied by an increase in soybean production. One way to increase soybeanproduction by using improved varieties. The purpose of this study were (1) Estimating thevalue of the diversity of phenotypes soy F6 generations from crosses between Wilis x Mlg2521,(2) Estimating the heritability estimates soybean F6 generations from crosses Wilis x Mlg2521,(3) Know the numbers expectation of F6 generation crosses Wilis x Mlg2521. The researchwas conducted from March 2014 until June 2014 at the Land Lab Lampung StatePolytechnic and observations made in Laboratory of Seed and Plant Breeding, University ofLampung. Soybean seeds used were F6 generation zuriat from Wilis x Mlg2521, Wilis andMlg2521. The treatment laid out in a randomized block design, 2 replications.

Antibodies raised against tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs) were used to probe the functional status of the soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] paraveinal mesophyll (PVM) vacuole during changes in nitrogen metabolism within the leaf. Young plants grown under standard conditions had PVM vacuoles characterised by the presence of γ-TIP, which is indicative of a lytic function. When plants were then subjected to shoot tip removal for a period of 15 d, forcing a sink-limited physiological condition, the γ-TIP marker diminished while the δ-TIP marker became present in the PVM vacuole, indicating the conversion of the PVM vacuole to a storage function. When the shoot tips were allowed to regrow, the γ-TIP marker again became dominant demonstrating the reversion of these PVM vacuoles back to a lytic compartment. The changes in TIP markers correlated with the accumulation of vegetative storage proteins and vegetative lipoxygenases, proteins implicated in nitrogen storage and assimilate partitioning. This research suggests that the PVM vacuole is able to undergo dynamic conversion between lytic and storage functions and further implicates this cell layer in assimilate storage and mobilisation in soybeans.

Absorption and translocation of buthidazole [3-[5-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]-4-hydroxy-1-methyl-2-imidazolidinone] was determined in several plant tissues. Buthidazole caused slight effects on seed germination. Germination of soybean (Glycine max L.Merr. ‘Williams’) seeds was inhibited up to 15% and velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrastiMedic.) was stimulated up to 13%. Buthidazole was absorbed by germinating soybeans, velvetleaf, and corn (Zea maysL.) with rate of absorption increasing when roots were capable of absorption. Buthidazole concentrations of 0.5 μM or greater inhibited growth of soybean in the early second-trifoliolate growth stage when supplied to the roots in nutrient solution. Within 96 h, 29% of the buthidazole available to soybeans was absorbed from nutrient solution and 89% of that absorbed was found in the shoots. The expanded leaves of soybean accumulated the majority of the radioactivity. Radioactivity in roots of soybean approached a steady state condition within 96 h, whereas14C continued to increase in shoots. Foliar absorption of buthidazole in soybean greatly increased when any one of several surfactants were used. Soybean dry weight reduction nearly doubled by adding surfactants. Over 60% of the14C-buthidazole applied to soybean leaves was absorbed within 1.5 h, and increased to 73% by 96 h when the nonionic surfactant, AL-411-F3[Phytobland Spray Oil (83%) plus ATPLUS 300F (17%)] was used compared to only 7% in 96 h without the surfactant. There was little or no movement of buthidazole from the treated leaves. Translocation was typical of apoplastic movement.

The occurrence and extent of chilling injury during imbibition of seeds from five cultivars and four lines of soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr) were tested. Seeds were imbibed and incubated at 2 °C for up to 72 h on moist filter papers and their ability to germinate when returned to 25 °C was recorded. Early-maturing varieties with the ability to form pods and seeds at lower temperatures were most susceptible to irreversible injury during imbibitional chilling. Rate of water uptake during low-temperature imbibition was measured, and seeds which were most susceptible to imbibitional chilling also had the highest rate of water uptake. In controlled-environment studies, seeds from the same cultivars that were set at different temperatures showed corresponding differences in susceptibility to imbibitional chilling injury. These results suggest that environmental temperatures during seed set or pod formation can play a role in chilling tolerance during seed imbibition.

The effect of 0.15 ppm ozone and (or) 0.15 ppm sulphurdioxide on leaf chlorophyll, RNA, and protein levels was investigated. Ozone-treated leaves exhibited reddish-brown colored lesions and an immediate and continuous decrease in chlorophyll a and b levels over a 5-day period, whereas protein levels increased and there was no effect on RNA levels compared to the control group of plants. Sulphur dioxide-treated leaves exhibited an immediate increase in chlorophyll a and b, but protein and RNA levels were not affected. The sulphur dioxide – ozone mixture caused an interveinal chlorisis by about day 3 and produced a decrease in chlorophyll a and b which was delayed by 2 days compared with leaves exposed to ozone alone. By the end of the 5-day period, chlorophyll a and b levels were less than in leaves treated with ozone alone, but the interveinal chlorosis that occurred was not due to phaeophytinization of the chlorophyll molecules. Protein and RNA levels were not affected. Although both ozone and the pollutant mixture caused chlorophyll destruction and premature leaf drop, the changes that occurred in the leaf were not typical of normal leaf senescence.
