Pollen Fertility And Agronomic Performance Of Sorghum Hybrids With Different Male-Sterility-Inducing Cytoplasms, R. E. Secrist, R. E. Atkins

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Effects of three sources of male-sterility-inducing cytoplasm in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] were compared in crosses with 217 male parents. Hybrids of these parents and A2 Redbine 58', 'A3 Combine Kafir 60', and 'A4 Martin' female parents were evaluated for percentage stained pollen, seed set of bagged panicles, plant height, and days to midbloom. Additionally, hybrids of 12 of the inbreds crossed to each female parent were evaluated for grain yield and other agronomic traits in comparison with hybrids in A1 male-sterility-inducing cytoplasm.

Twenty-one inbreds restored pollen fertility to hybrids with A2 cytoplasm, 11 restored pollen fertility to …

Cytoplasmic Effect On Groat Protein Content In Lnterspecific Matings Of Avena Sativa L. And A. Sterilis L., A. Rezai, K. J. Frey

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Thirty sets of reciprocal isopopulations, each with 20 Fi-derived oat lines from the BC₀, BC₁, and BC₂ of all possible matings among five Awia slerilis L. accessions and two A. saliva cultivars, were evaluated in a replicated field trial to determine whether groat protein content was influenced by cytoplasmic inheritance and to study associations between protein content and agronomic traits. A. slerili cytoplasm had no direct effect on groat protein content, but significant interactions between the cytoplasms and nuclear genes from A. saliva and A. s1erilis were detected. Thus, the potential may exist for improving …

Synthesis And Antibacterial Studies Of Some 2-Furanthiocarboxyhydrazones, Xiaorong Li, Zoumin Sun, James C. Chang

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Seven 2-furanthiocarboxyhydrazones were prepared, 5-nitro-furaldehyde-2-furanthiocarboxyhydrazone from the reaction of 2-furanthiocarboxyhydrazide with 5-nitro-2-furaldiacetate and the others from the condensation of 2-furanthiocarboxyhydrazide with aldehydes: 2- furaldehyde, benzaldehyde, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, o-methoxybenzaldehyde, o-vanillin, and salicylaldehyde. The seven 2-furanthiocarboxyhydrazones were tested for their antibacterial activities against Staphyloccocus aureus and Bacillus subtilis. 5-Nitro-2-furaldehyde-2- furanthiocarboxyhydrazone was found to display the strongest bacterotoxicity.

Ecology Of Iowa Drosophila Ii. Lowland Forest And Sand Prairie, Neil J. Jennings, Robert D. Seager

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

The seasonal abundances of Drosophila species collected from a lowland forest community and from a sand prairie community in northeastern Iowa are compared. With some important exceptions, the patterns seen in the lowland forest community were similar to what had been observed in a previous collection (Jennings et al. 1985). Fewer species and many fewer individuals were collected from the sand prairie community, although in general the patterns seen were similar to those of the lowland forest community. Strong evidence of microhabitat differentiation was seen in both communities. In contrast to our previous study, none of the seasonal abundance patterns …

The Vascular Flora Of Pilot Knob State Preserve, William C. Watson

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Pilot Knob State Preserve is a 365 acre (147 ha) area lying within the boundaries of Pilot Knob State Park. Located in north central Iowa near the northeast corner of Hancock County, this preserve resides on the eastern morainal system of the Des Moines Lobe left from the Wisconsinan glaciation. The vegetation of the preserve is primarily a deciduous woodland on rolling hills interspersed with wetland habitats in the hollows. Iowa's only floating bog is present in one of these hollows and supports numerous vascular plants uncommon to the state. Two species, Carex cephalantha (Bailey) Bickn. and Drosera rotundifolia L., …

Iowa Geology: The Early Years, Wayne I. Anderson

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

In 1975 on the occasion of the first one hundred years of the Iowa Academy of Science, Robert W. Hanson summarized the history of the organization. Additional historical accounts covering many of the science disciplines were published during the centennial year. Although geology was not treated separately in these special articles, the contributions of early geologists were important to the development of science in our state. Consequently, it is appropriate to consider the contributions of early geologists in Iowa in celebration of the one hundredth annual meeting of the Iowa Academy of Science. Included in the present report are the …
