Abstract:
In questi ultimi dieci anni, il programma nucleare iraniano ha assunto una valenza cruciale per la definizione dei rapporti tra la Repubblica islamica dell'Iran e una parte rilevante della comunitŕ internazionale. Nonostante sia necessario valutare quanto le ambizioni nucleari di questo paese possano ulteriormente influenzare gli equilibri politico- strategici regionali, č altrettanto significativo analizzare come, storicamente, questo quadro regionale abbia inciso sulle decisioni assunte dall'Iran - monarchico e rivoluzionario - rispetto alle tempistiche di costruzione e al posizionamento territoriale dei propri siti nucleari. Puň essere quindi tracciata una "dorsale" Teheran-Esfahan-Bushehr che mette in relazione i principali siti nucleari iraniani attualmente in funzione, snodandosi sul corridoio strategico che dal Mar Caspio lambisce le acque del Golfo Persico. Questa "dorsale" include l'impianto di arricchimento di Natanz, principale oggetto della contesa con la comunitŕ internazionale, che dista pochi chilometri dal punto d'incontro delle direttrici che collegano Bagdad con Herat (e Kabul), Kuwait City con Ashgabat, il confine turco-armeno a nord-est con quello pakistano a sud-ovest. La centralitŕ politica assunta dal programma nucleare per l'Iran si traduce quindi in una "centralitŕ territoriale", a riprova del profondo radicamento tra questa questione e la concezione strategica dell'intero paese.

Abstract:
This essay explores the effect of the “nuclear winter” thesis upon the strategic debate. Both “hawks” and “doves” responded to the nuclear winter thesis in an ideological manner, illustrating the theological nature of the debate on nuclear strategy. Hawks used the nuclear winter data to argue for limited nuclear options, strategic modernization, environmentally sensitive weapons, and strategic defense. Doves used the same information to argue for mutual assured destruction, arms control, and/or global disarmament. Another group of analysts, the “pragmatic Center,” exhibited a more flexible, subtle understanding of the nuclear dilemma.

Abstract:
El objetivo general de esta investigación es analizar el sistema de comunicación de las centrales nucleares de España y, partiendo de esa premisa, realizar una propuesta comunicativa-fundamentada en la estrategia-que contribuya a la reparación de la legitimidad social de la energía nuclear. La metodología empleada para esta investigación tiene cuatro partes: fuentes bibliográficas, revisión de textos científicos sobre empresa, RSC y comunicación; comunicación y legislación nuclear; informes de producción y consumo de electricidad, y estudios de opinión pública y energía nuclear; fuentes personales, entrevistas en profundidad a los responsables de la comunicación en las centrales nucleares de España; análisis de calidad de las páginas web de las plantas atómicas; y un análisis de contenido de diarios de proximidad a las centrales nucleares. La razón para realizar esta investigación, es que la producción de electricidad de origen nuclear tiene ventajas e inconvenientes: es un tipo de energía que da estabilidad a la red y garantiza el suministro; no emite gases contaminantes a la atmósfera; es una actividad muy regulada; tiene un impacto socioeconómico relevante en las zonas donde se asientan las instalaciones nucleares; genera residuos radioactivos y en caso de accidente los riesgos para la salud de las personas y el medio ambiente son potenciales. Sin embargo, es una energía cuestionada. La opinión pública en España se posiciona en contra de la energía nuclear y de las plantas atómicas, pero las encuestas dicen que cuando los entrevistados conocen más información sobre la industria atómica aumenta la aceptación hacia esta fuente de energía. Este vacío informativo entre las centrales y sus públicos justifica que la función comunicativa tenga un papel protagonista. Otro asunto que justifica que la comunicación es necesaria para este sector es que su viabilidad no depende exclusivamente de producir un bien, como es la electricidad, ni de hacerlo de una manera sostenible, eficiente, segura o rentable. En el sector nuclear existen unos grupos de interés con capacidad de decidir sobre el futuro de las instalaciones como, por ejemplo, los gobiernos, la empresa propietaria o el organismo regulador; y otros grupos de interés que tienen prestigio en el debate e influencia en la opinión pública, como son los medios de comunicación o los grupos ecologistas y antinucleares, entre otros. Nuestra propuesta de investigación se cimienta en cuatro ejes: una orientación empresarial para reparar la legitimidad social; unos principios que inspiren la Comunicación Nuclear; una estructura de Dirección de Comunicación; y un plan estratégico de comunicación (interna, externa, y de crisis). Entendemos que para reparar la legitimidad de la energía nuclear en primer lugar las prácticas empresariales tienen que ser responsables para, en segundo lugar, transmitirlas a los diferentes públicos. Y consideramos que la comunicación nuclear debe sostenerse en un diálogo auténtico y constante con los grupos de interés. Porque creemos que la comunicación en una central nuclear debe responder a las siguientes características: estratégica, organizada, directiva, proactiva, responsable, de servicio y relacional. Desde un punto académico esta investigación cubre un vacío ya que no hay un desarrollo teórico sobre la Comunicación Nuclear. Y desde un punto de vista práctico, los resultados de esta investigación pueden ser aplicados a la gestión comunicativa de cualquier planta atómica. Por lo tanto creemos que la esta investigación es conveniente tanto para el conocimiento de la sociedad, el mundo académico como el propio sector.
The general objective of this research is to analyze the communication system of nuclear power plants in Spain and, based on that premise, to make a communicative proposal based on the strategy that contributes to the repair of the social legitimacy of nuclear energy. The methodology used for this research has four fundamental points: bibliographic sources, review of scientific texts about business, CSR and communication, communication and nuclear Legislation; reports on electricity production and consumption, and studies of public opinion and nuclear energy; personal sources, in-depth interviews with those responsible for communication in Spain's nuclear power plants; quality analysis of the web pages of atomic plants; and an analysis of content of newspapers with proximity to nuclear power plants. The production of electricity of nuclear origin has advantages and disadvantages: it is a type of energy that gives stability to the network and guarantees the supply; it does not emit polluting gases into the atmosphere; it is a highly regulated activity; it has a relevant socioeconomic impact in the areas where the nuclear facilities are located; it generates radioactive waste and in case of accident the damage to the health of people and the environment is possible. Public opinion in Spain is positioned against nuclear energy and atomic plants, but surveys say that when the interviewees know more information about the atomic industry, the acceptance towards this source of energy increases. This information gap between the nuclear power plants and their public justifies that the communicative function has a leading role. Another issue that justifies that communication is necessary for this sector is that its viability does not depend exclusively on producing a good, such as electricity, nor on doing so in a sustainable, efficient, safe or profitable way. In the nuclear sector there are interest groups with the capacity to decide on the future of the facilities, such as, the governments, the owner company or the regulatory body; and other interest groups that have prestige in the debate and influence on public opinion, such as the media or environmental and anti-nuclear groups, among others. Our proposal is based on four axes: a business orientation to repair social legitimacy; principles that inspire Nuclear Communication; a Communication Management structure; and a strategic communication plan (internal, external, and crisis). We understand that in order to repair the legitimacy of nuclear energy, first of all business practices must be responsible for, secondly, transmitting them to different publics. Moreover we believe that nuclear communication must be sustained in a genuine and constant dialogue with interest groups, because we believe that communication in a nuclear power plant must respond to the following characteristics: strategic, organized, directive, proactive, responsible, service and relational. From an academic viewpoint, this research covers a vacuum since there is no theoretical development on Nuclear Communication. And from a practical point of view, the results of this research can be applied to the communicative management of any atomic plant. Therefore, we believe that this research is suitable for the knowledge of society, the academic world and the sector itself.

Abstract:

As a developing country with the second largest population in the world, India's energy needs will continue to grow steadily in the coming decades. A significant proportion of India's oil, coal and natural gas are imported because of a dearth of indigenous energy resources. This creates a situation of energy dependence and is a potential national security issue. As a result, the government is embarking on an ambitious plan to have nuclear power generate 25% of electricity in 2050 – up from 3.7% in 2012. The aim is to be running on thorium fast-breeder reactors, that are currently in development, by that time. India's vast reserves of thorium would mean that this would improve energy security, while also improving access to energy for the large part of its population that remains without it.

However, nuclear energy is controversial. Issues of safety and viability must be addressed adequately if nuclear energy is to be pursued. Civil-society concerns about the displacement of people and the degradation or changes in environment around plants and its consequences must also be appropriately addressed. The aim of this paper is to ascertain if it is indeed in India's strategic interest to invest in nuclear energy. Within a theoretical framework of energy security the paper will seek to identify what changes should be made in the sector to guide and manage the process of expanding nuclear-power generation is also important if prescribing this course of action.

Abstract:
Nuclear weapons were rapidly incorporated into the policies for maintaining the national security objectives of both the Soviet Union and the United States--in spite of poorly understood nuclear weapons effects. The nuclear winter hypothesis, the basis of which was first proposed in 1982, directed scientific research into the consequences of massive amounts of dust and smoke, from nuclear detonations, on the earth's climate and subsequently on the ecology of the earth. This thesis presents the evolution of the nuclear winter hypothesis in order to elucidate its unique aspects for global devastation and the consensus of plausibility which the hypothesis holds in the scientific community. The hypothesis has aroused a flurry of debate on its implications for nuclear policy. With the historical aspects of the nuclear era as a backdrop, the question of incorporating new scientific information on the consequences of nuclear war into policy is discussed. The observed responses of the U.S. and Soviet Union and the implications for future actions in response to the nuclear winter hypothesis are examined-- leading to the conclusion that the hypothesis will have little or no impact on U.S. and Soviet nuclear policy.

Abstract:
The concept of Strategic Culture was developed during the Cold War years as a tool to analyse the nuclear policies of the Soviet Union and the United States, in an effort to assess the likelihood of their utilising their nuclear capabilities. Strategic Culture provides a useful lens through which we may understand the context, outlook and behaviour of states, shedding light on the way they perceive the international community and their role within it. As the Cold War came to an end, the focus of Strategic Culture literature shifted from the nuclear bipolarity that characterised U.S.-Soviet relations, to focus on other states and issue areas that dominated the international agenda within the New World Order. This thesis seeks to return to the original tenets of Strategic Culture, bringing attention back to the initial remits of this area of study, that is, the nuclear strategic cultures of the U.S.A. and Russia. Further to identifying the strategic cultures of the United States and Russia, this research questions whether these have been impacted by the change in international order brought on by the end of the Cold War. This work will also question whether nuclear weapons contorted their respective strategic cultures, or whether their strategic cultures were insulated from the impact of nuclear weapons. It will also assess whether the differences in strategic cultures have brought about differences in nuclear policy.

Abstract:
This study explores the nature of skills forecasting in nuclear decommissioning and that which makes skills forecasting information useful. The study adopts a pragmatic approach using an interpretative, qualitative case study research design and draws on aspects of a critical realist approach to uncover, deconstruct and challenge some ‘norms’ in skills forecasting. The study makes an original contribution to knowledge through the identification of nineteen factors that influence skills forecasting in the nuclear industry. It also generates a baseline of knowledge on the theory and practice of skills forecasting and management through a review of the literature on skills, forecasting, skills forecasting and workforce planning and relevant aspects of public sector management and HRM. The study documents and compares current skills forecasting practice amongst UK site licensed companies and selected supply chain companies. Such research has not previously been conducted in the nuclear decommissioning industry. This answers research questions about why, and how, different groups in the sector perform skills forecasting and how variations in approaches affect the information produced. It also answers research questions about who uses skills forecasting information, and how. Together with a review of current problems with skills information, this contributes to an understanding of what makes skills information useful. The research evidences that while the industry has some common features with other High Reliability Organisations, there are unique dimensions which make this research significant. Some ‘norms’ operating in skills forecasting were challenged including how it is being used, eg as an agent for change by some groups, and assumptions about the potential availability of skills from the supply chain. The literature review was used to construct a practical-ideal type, an approach derived from classical pragmatism offering a version of a nearly ideal process, on the understanding that this is socially constructed and subject to continual change. Existing practice is evaluated against this practical-ideal type in a unique application of this methodology in the nuclear decommissioning context.

Full text
Abstract:
The Steam Generator Asset Management Program (SGAMP) is a long term program designed to maximize the performance and reliability of the steam generators. The SGAMP focuses on plant specific conditions and hence is applicable to the original or the replacement steam generators. It is recommended that the utility and the vendor form a joint steam generator management team (SGMT) to develop, monitor and implement a long-term plan to address steam generator operation, maintenance and life extension goals. The SGMT will consist of representatives from operations, chemistry, maintenance and engineering functions and will be responsible for making decisions related to the steam generators. The charter of the SGMT is to develop a steam generator strategic plan that will cost-effectively manage steam generator options. The strategic plan is consistent with the Steam Generator Program Guidelines (NEI 97-06 in the United States). The strategic plan is a living document and is revised periodically to incorporate inspection results, new technology developments, lessons learned and industry experience. Cost-benefit analyses of strategies may be performed to prolong steam generator operability through steam generator performance modeling (tube degradation, fouling, etc.), diagnostic tools, regulatory strategy, condition monitoring and operational assessment strategy, and maintenance strategy. The SGMT will provide input regarding potential maintenance of the steam generators with schedule and cost impacts for each outage. It will also recommend engineering evaluations to be performed in support of program goals and will develop short- and long-term recommendations. These recommendations will address action plans, performance measures and results. Secondary side inspection and cleaning strategy should be developed (techniques and frequency) to maximize performance cost-effectively. This paper is based on Westinghouse experience gained by working with several pressurized water reactor (PWR) plant operators in the United States (US).

Full text
Abstract:
In March 2007 the UK Government and devolved administrations (for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, from here on referred to as ‘Government’) published their policy for the management of solid low level waste (‘the Policy’). The Policy sets out a number of core principles for the management of low level waste (LLW) and charges the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority with developing a UK-wide strategy in the case of LLW from nuclear sites. The UK Nuclear Industry LLW Strategy has been developed within the framework of the principles set out in the policy. A key factor in the development of this strategy has been the strategic partnership the NDA shares with the Low Level Waste Repository near Drigg (LLWR), who now have a role in developing strategy as well as delivering an optimised waste management service at the LLWR. The strategy aims to support continued hazard reduction and decommissioning by ensuring uninterrupted capability and capacity for the management and disposal of LLW in the UK. The continued availability of a disposal route for LLW is considered vital by both the nuclear industry and non-nuclear industry low level waste producers. Given that the UK will generate significantly more low level waste (∼ 3.1 million m3) than there is capacity at the LLWR (∼0.75 million m3), developing alternative effective ways to manage LLW is critical. The waste management hierarchy is central to the strategy, which includes strategic goals at all levels of the hierarchy to improve its application across the industry.

Abstract:
NDA is delivering a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) to underpin the UK Nuclear Industry Low Level Waste Strategy. The purpose of this assessment is embed sustainability issues into our decision making and to fulfil our requirements under the European Union’s Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Directive (2004/42/EU) and transposing UK Regulations, and to underpin the development of the strategy. The outputs of the SEA have provided input into particular aspects of the strategy, leading to a more robust and better informed result. Development of options to be assessed under the SEA has looked at a number of factors, including: • what the strategy is aiming to achieve; • expectation from stakeholders as to what should be addressed; • consideration of tactical approaches to implementation of the strategy in addition to high level strategic issues; • links to other projects and programmes (for example the Environmental Safety Case for the Low Level Waste Repository. The SEA aims to provide a robust assessment of the environmental and sustainability impacts of alternative strategies for providing continued capability and capacity for the management and disposal of LLW in the UK. The assessment also considers other, more tactical, issues around implementation of the strategy, for example: issues around the location of LLW management facilities; the environmental impacts of alternative waste treatment options (metal recycling etc); considerations of alternative approaches to the classification of radioactive waste and opportunities that would result. Critical to the development of the SEA has been the involvement of statutory and non-statutory stakeholders, who have informed both the output and the approach taken.

Decisions on the strategies to follow in dealing with these operational and decommissioning wastes require consideration of a wide range of issues including environmental impact, safety, stakeholder acceptability, cost and practicability. In this paper, we focus on an approach that we have developed to analyse the time-varying resource requirements of different waste management options in terms of cost and plant capacity. The approach addresses the need for: • a standardised approach that can be used across different organisations; • a range of standard graphical outputs that can be used to communicate the key issues; • the need to match waste management strategy with the potential availability of relevant plant and facilities; • the need to evaluate the risks that arise to any strategy as the result of changes in policy or the failure of some component of the strategy. Many of the required issues can be addressed using a simple spreadsheet approach. However, this does not provide for standardisation, auditability or transparency and does not provide a wide range of analysis and presentation tools. We therefore advocate the use of a specifically designed decision support tool. ALPS (Advanced Liabilities Planning System) has been developed over a number of years to meet these requirements. It has been developed around the database package ACCESSTM and runs on Pentium TM PCs but has the essential features of project management packages that are necessary for strategic planning. The principal outputs of the system are cost, timing and utilisation data for waste stores, processing facilities, transport and disposal operations. The outputs can be displayed at any level of aggregation to allow the effects of different scenarios to be evaluated.

Abstract:
The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident was a series of equipment failures, nuclear meltdowns, and releases of radioactive materials at the Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant, following the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on 11 March 2011. According to the cause and process of Fukushima severe accident, several possible scenarios for CPR1000 nuclear power plant were analyzed in this paper, under the assumed situation similar to Fukushima severe accident, with the severe accident analysis code MAAP4. According to the analysis results, several weak points of CPR1000 power plant under situation similar to Fukushima accident were found. The electric power and cooling ability for CPR1000 power plant appear to be most important factors under such accident. Then, several temporary cooling strategies for CPR1000 power plant were suggested, including ASG water supply strategy, temporary injection strategy for primary loop, temporary injection strategy for secondary loop, which would improve the safety of CPR1000 power plant under the situation similar to Fukushima accident. At the last, assessments of effectiveness for these strategies were performed, and the results were compared with analysis without these strategies. The comparisons showed that correctly actions of these strategies would effectively prevent the accident process of CPR1000 power plant under situation similar to Fukushima accident.

Abstract:
A new multi-purpose modular small pressurized water reactor with once-through steam generators is being designed in China. Its key parameters are different from traditional large pressurized water reactor. There are sixteen once-through steam generators divided into two groups inside of the pressure vessel. The four coolant pumps are located on the periphery of the pressure vessel. The coolant is heated by the core and transported the heat to the secondary loop by once-through steam generators. The superheated steam is generated, and its dynamics are different from those of U-tube steam generators. The relationship between the reactor and turbine is also complicated and needs to investigate. The control strategies of traditional large pressurized water reactor cannot be applied directly to the small reactor with once-through steam generators. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate suitable control strategies of the multi-purpose modular small reactor with once-through steam generators. Three control strategies are proposed and investigated in this study: turbine-leading, reactor-leading and feedwater-leading. With the reactor-leading strategy, the reactor power is adjusted by moving the control rod. The coolant temperature follows the change of the reactor power. Feedwater flow is applied to regulate the steam pressure. The steam flow rate follows the change of the feedwater flow rate to satisfy the demand power. With the turbine-leading strategy, the steam valve is adjusted which will influence the steam flow to satisfy the demand power. The feedwater-leading control strategy is adjusting the feed water flow rate corresponding to the demand power which has been measured. And reactor power and turbine load vary with feedwater flow rate. Input-output pairings of the control systems are determined based on the different strategies and proportion-integral-derivative (PID) controllers are tuned to meet the control requirements. To evaluate the performance of control strategies, power maneuvering events including a 10%FP (Full Power) step change and a ramp change with a rate of 5%FP/min are simulated. The processes of important control parameters varying with time are compared and evaluated to obtain the suitable one. Conclusions can be drawn from the simulation analyses of the control performance. The reactor-leading control strategy is best for the base-load operation. The turbine-leading control strategy is more suitable for load-following operation. The feedwater leading control strategy can be applied to load-following operation with smooth load adjustment.

Abstract:
Nuclear Power Plants (NPP) have multiple levels of defense in depth hierarchy. The NPP accident condition operation strategy belongs to the 3rd level. It is used to supervise the operator to handle the NPP under accident operating condition. NPP accident condition operation strategy is an essential and difficult work in NPP design field, hence only few organizations are able to develop the accident operating strategies independently all over the world. In this paper, a systematic NPP accident operating condition strategy design methodology is raised based on function analysis and task analysis technology. Based on the methodology, a reactivity accident operation strategy is designed and proved to be reasonable through preliminary verification and validation work.

Abstract:
The Fukushima severe accident needs very intensive and detailed response from all involved, to develop relevant mitigation strategies. For VVER type units this strategy is already developed and proved for smaller output units type VVER 440 MW. For higher output units type VVER 1000 MW this strategy is under development. In presented paper recent development based on analytical and experimental research work is presented. The research work is not yet finished, however, analytical and experimental work is building strong arguments that the IVR strategy is possible even for higher power existing units in operation, with application of proved measures which will be described.

Abstract:
This study is the first in a series that profiles different “friction points” among nuclear-armed and nuclear-allied States, examining issues of contention in their relations that can spark potential conflict and nuclear escalation. It considers the multipolar dynamics between the United States, the Russian Federation, and China, and examines how fundamental mistrust among the three filters into their readings of each other’s nuclear strategies, with the potential to have an impact on escalatory risk scenarios. It then outlines a series of recommendations for the ‘great powers’ to bridge strategic perception gaps and reduce relevant risks. Part of UNIDIR’s ongoing research on nuclear risk reduction, this study is intended to feed into the dialogue on taking forward risk reduction – and on the development of practical and feasible baskets of measures that can close pathways to use of nuclear weapons.

Abstract:
Over the past few years, China has displayed a wide range of advances in military capabilities and infrastructure, including its test of a hypersonic glide vehicle coupled with a fractional orbital bombardment system and evidence of new intercontinental ballistic missile silos. While China and the United States remain at political odds, there are indications that China’s strategies in space, cyberspace and nuclear domains are increasingly converging with those of the USA, as well as Russia. A key question is whether this strategic convergence is a stabilizing or destabilizing phenomenon. To answer the question, this paper explores the current state of Chinese discussions on multidomain deterrence and strategic stability, with a focus on active defence and proactive defence. It then examines how these concepts are manifesting themselves in China’s postural and technological indicators, including pre-mating of nuclear warheads to delivery platforms, expanded nuclear arsenal size, possible shifts towards launch on warning, integration of dual-capable systems, and advances in machine learning and autonomy. It concludes with a discussion of what these trends mean for future strategic stability talks.

Abstract:
Natural leaf senescence, which occurs even when growth conditions are near optimal, has a negative influence on yield. Postharvest induced senescence contributes to the losses of quality in flowers, foliage, and vegetables. Strategies designed to control the senescence process in crop plants could therefore have great applied significance. However, the successful design of such strategies requires a better insight into the senescence machinery and control in higher plants. A main feature of senescence is the hydrolysis of macromolecules by hydrolases of various types such as ribonucleases (RNases) and proteases. Previously we had identified and characterized the tomato LX RNase gene demonstrating its transcript to be highly and specifically induced during senescence. This reported study was focused on LX but also had broadened our research to other senescence-associated nucleic acids degrading enzymes to learn about their function and the regulation of their encoding genes. Beside tomato we used parsley and Arabidopsis for the study of: the bi-functional nuclease which has a role in senescence. The study of different senescence- associated nucleases in few plant systems will allow a more general view on function and regulation of these enzymes in senescence. The specific original proposed objectives included: 1. Study the consequences of alterations in LX RNase level on tomato leaf senescence and general development; 2. Analyze stimuli which may participate in senescence-specific activation of the LX gene; 3. Clone the senescence-associated BFNI nuclease gene homologue from tomato. 4. Further characterize the sequences required for senescence-specific gene expression. Homozygous transgenic plants in which LX gene was either inhibited or over-expressed were generated. In both of these LX mutated plants no major phenotypic consequences were observed, which may suggests that LX is not essential for plant growth under optimal growth conditions. Lack of any abnormalities in the LX over-expressing lines suggests that special system exist to allow function of the RNase only when needed. Detailed analyses of growth under stress and consequences to RNA metabolism are underway. We have analyzed LX expression on the protein level demonstrating that it is involved also in petal senescing. Our results suggest that LX is responding to complex regulation involving developmental, organ dependent factors and responds differently to hormonal or environmental stimuli in the different plant organs. The cloned 1.4 kb promoter was cloned and its analysis revealed that probably not all required elements for senescence induction are included. Biochemical analysis of senescence-associated be-functional nucleases in the different plants, tomato, parsley and Arabidopsis, suggests they belong to a sub-class within the type I plant nucleases. The parsley PcNUC1/2 nuclease protein was purified from senescing leaves its and activity was studied in vitro revealing endo-, double strand, nucleolytic activity and exo-nucleolytic activity. Its encoding gene was cloned and found to be induced on the mRNA level. The promoter of the related Arabidopsis BFNI nuclease was shown in both tomato and Arabidopsis to be able and direct senescence-specific expression suggesting that, at least part, the gene is regulated on the transcriptional level and that the mechanism for this senescence-specific regulation is conserved between different plants. Few plants in which the BFNI gene is mutated were identified which are subjected now to detailed analysis. Our results suggest that the senescence-related nucleic acid degrading enzymes share similarities in both function and regulation between different plants and possibly have important functions in processes un-related to senescence. Still, the function of these enzymes, at least in some cases is not essential to plant development under optimal growth conditions. We are now at the stage which permits in depth investigation of the specific functions and mode of molecular regulation of senescence-associated nucleases with the aid of the research tools developed. The isolated senescence-specific promoter, shown to be active in heterologous plant system, could be utilized in agricultural-related biotechnological applications for retardation of senescence.
