Abstract (sommario):

During the 1930s the neighborhood shopping center emerged as an important phenomenon in the development of retail facilities in the United States. Prior to that decade, the type was limited to a modest number of examples built as components of planned residential subdivisions for the well-to-do. By the eve of World War II, the neighborhood shopping center was seen as an advantageous means of meeting the routine needs of people in outlying urban areas generally. During the 1930s, the neighborhood center also became one of the first common building forms to experience a basic reconfiguration to accommodate patterns of widespread automobile usage. Washington, D. C., was the initial and by far the most intensive proving ground for this work at its formative stage. The results were influential nationwide in the shopping center's transformation from a novelty to a ubiquitous feature of the American landscape.

Abstract (sommario):

The aim of the Ukrainian Bureau in Washington was propaganda of Ukrainian question among US government and American publicity in general. Functioning of the Bureau is not represented non in Ukrainian neither in foreign historiographies, so that’s why the main goal of presented paper is to investigate its activity. The research is based on personal papers of Ukrainian diaspora representatives (O. Granovskyi, E. Skotzko, E. Onatskyi) and articles from American and Ukrainian newspapers. The second mass immigration of Ukrainians to the US (1914‒1930s) has often been called the «military» immigration and what it lacked in numbers, it made up in quality. Most immigrants were educated, some with college degrees. The founder of the Ukrainian Bureau Eugene Skotzko was born near Western Ukrainian town of Zoloczhiv and immigrated to the United States in late 1920s after graduating from Lviv Polytechnic University. In New York he began to collaborate with OUN member O. Senyk-Hrabivskyi who gave E. Skotzko task to create informational bureau for propaganda of Ukrainian case. On March 23 1939 the Bureau was founded in Washington D. C. E. Skotzko was an editor of its Informational Bulletins. The Bureau biggest problem was lack of financial support. It was the main reason why it stopped functioning in May 1940. During 14 months of functioning Ukrainian Bureau in Washington posted dozens of informational bulletins and send it to hundreds of addressees; E. Skotzko, as a director, personally wrote to American governmental institutions and foreign diplomats informing about Ukrainian problem in Europe. Ukrainian Bureau activity is an inspiring example for those who care for informational policy of modern Ukraine.Keywords: Ukrainian small encyclopedia, Yevhen Onatsky, journalism, worldview, Ukrainian state.

Abstract (sommario):

Red raspberry production in the western United States is heavily reliant on preplant soil fumigation to ensure the successful establishment and productivity of a planting. However, due to issues related to the regulation, availability, and economics of soil fumigation, alternatives are needed for current fumigation practices. Trials were conducted in commercial raspberry fields in California and Washington to evaluate alternatives to current fumigation practices in each region. In Washington, tarped bed fumigation with 1,3-dichlorpropene (1,3-D):chloropicrin (Telone C-35) performed as well as, and sometimes better than, the industry standard nontarped broadcast fumigation with Telone C-35 for the control of the soilborne pathogen Phytophthora rubi and the plant-parasitic nematode Pratylenchus penetrans. In one of the Washington trials, yield of raspberry grown in tarped bed-fumigated areas was 47% greater than the yield of plants grown in nontarped broadcast-fumigated areas. In California, a combination of chloropicrin:1,3-D (Pic-Clor 60) performed as well as the industry standard of methyl bromide:chloropicrin. Raspberry plants grown in soil fumigated with either of these fumigants were approximately 26% taller than plants grown in nonfumigated soil. Our results indicate that there are viable fumigation alternatives to the current fumigation systems used in Washington and California raspberry production systems.

Abstract (sommario):

During 1999, a leaf spot on carrot (Daucus carota L. subsp. sativus [Hoffm.] Arcang.) was observed on nearly every plant in a 20-ha field of carrots (cv. Red Chantenay) grown for processing in western Washington. Circular to elongate, light brown lesions surrounded by chlorosis were present on leaflet margins and petioles of affected plants. Conidia of Cercospora carotae (Pass.) Solheim were present in the lesions. Small pieces of surface-sterilized leaf tissue were placed onto potato dextrose agar plates and incubated at room temperature to obtain fungal isolates. Koch's postulates were completed by atomizing the upper and lower leaves of carrot seedlings at the three to four leaf stage with sterile water or C. carotae at 1.0 × 104 conidia/ml in sterile 0.01% Tween 80. Treatments were replicated five times using single plants. The plants were bagged in clear plastic and placed in a greenhouse at 25°C for 72 h. Disease symptoms developed within 10 days as light brown lesions on leaflet margins and petioles, and were similar to those found in the field. The fungus was reisolated as described above. Symptoms did not develop in control plants sprayed with water. Farr et al. (1) report that C. carotae occurs in several states but not Washington, and Shaw (2) lists C. carotae only from British Columbia and Oregon. To our knowledge, this is the first report of Cercospora leaf spot on carrot in Washington. References: (1) D. F. Farr et al. 1989. Fungi on Plants and Plant Products in the United States.

Abstract (sommario):

In the summer and autumn of 1998, the National Capital Region Transportation Planning Board (TPB) sponsored an independent study by a team led by ICF Kaiser (now ICF Consulting) to assess its public involvement program for transportation planning carried out in the Washington, D.C., region. The Washington region’s metropolitan planning organization was one of the first to commission an assessment of its public involvement efforts as required under the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991. The purpose was to provide an overall assessment of TPB’s public involvement program and recommend options for improvement. The assessment was conducted in three phases. The first phase was to review public involvement efforts in the Washington region and, for comparative purposes, other selected metropolitan regions across the United States. The second phase was to interview knowledgeable stakeholders on public involvement in the Washington region. The final phase was to prepare a report presenting findings and recommendations to the TPB based on the efforts from the first two phases. The final report was organized under the umbrella of four overarching themes: ( a) strengthen outreach to stakeholders and the public; ( b) enhance access to information; ( c) improve the public’s understanding of TPB responsibilities; and ( d) either discontinue or enhance the citizens’ advisory committee. Although the first three themes are familiar to strengthening many public involvement programs, the fourth is somewhat new and surprising, especially given the prevalence of such bodies.

Abstract (sommario):

In controlled-environment chambers, serrated tussock achieved maximum growth in temperature regimes of 18/11, 18/23, 24/23, or 24/17 C day/night. Growth was significantly reduced at 30/11 C, and no plants survived at 36/29 C. Serrated tussock seedlings grew slowly at first but eventually produced vigorous tussocks with as many as 2800 tillers after 140 d in the 24/17 C regime. Comparisons of climatic conditions in New South Wales, Victoria, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United States revealed that similar temperature conditions occur during the warmest eight mo of the year in areas as diverse as Oregon, Washington, the Sierran Nevada foothills of California, upper elevation rangelands in Arizona, and the southern Appalachian highlands. None of these areas has a precipitation pattern similar to those of the sites of serrated tussock weed infestation in the Southern Hemisphere. However, poorly managed pastures and unimproved rangelands in these diverse areas may be vulnerable to invasion by serrated tussock, should the weed become established in the United States.

Abstract (sommario):

Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) is an important warm-season perennial turf and forage grass that is typically grown in warm, tropical and subtropical climates. Smutted inflorescences of bermudagrass were observed and collected in Benton County, Washington, United States, in October of 2012 in an unmanaged, naturalized area located near the banks of the Columbia River and adjacent to large expanses of managed turf containing bermudagrass. The climate in this area is favorable to bermudagrass due to the relatively mild winters and hot, dry summers that usually occur in this region. The infected plants occurred in patches alongside healthy plants and several disease foci were observed along a 100-m transect of non-contiguous bermudagrass. The disease was severe wherever it occurred. Diseased inflorescences were covered with black-brown teliospores, distorted, and frequently failed to fully emerge and develop. Teliospores (n = 80) were irregularly globose to subglobose, 5.3 to 7.0 × 4.5 to 6.2 μm (mean 6.4 × 5.9 μm) and 6.2 to 8.8 × 5.3 to 7.0 μm (mean 7.0 × 6.5 μm), with a smooth wall approximately 1 μm thick, and were consistent with previous descriptions of Ustilago cynodontis teliospores (1,3). Teliospores germinated within 24 h when plated on 0.2% malt agar at 16°C and produced 4-celled basidia in a 3+1 arrangement, also consistent with U. cynodontis (3). Basidia gave rise to lateral and terminal, ovoid to long ellipsoidal basidiospores. Basidiospores budded or germinated by hyphae from which lateral or terminal aerial sporidia developed as previously described (3,4). DNA was extracted from sporidia of three single-spored isolates grown in malt extract broth. Complete nucleotide sequences of the 5.8S ribosomal RNA coding region and partial sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions 1 and 2 were obtained from the three isolates using ITS1 and ITS4 primers. The corresponding regions of the three aligned sequences (GenBank Accession Nos. KC920742 to KC920744) were identical and exhibited 99 to 100% identity with U. cynodontis strains previously deposited in GenBank (HM143013, AY740168, AF038825, and AY345000). Representative specimens were deposited in the WSU Mycological Herbarium as WSP 72345 to WSP 72348. This is the first report of U. cynodontis causing smut on bermudagrass in Washington State and represents the northernmost record of this fungus in North America (2). The occurrence of U. cynodontis in Washington State suggests that the pathogen may exist in other hot and dry areas of northwestern North America where bermudagrass is found associated with turf in recreational, landscape, or natural settings.

Abstract (sommario):

Literature on the foreign policy behavior of economically dependent states holds that they will comply with the foreign policy preferences of the United States, particularly on cold war issues. Regional foreign policies of Mexico and Costa Rica defy this view. Despite significant economic dependence on U.S. aid and trade, both Miguel de la Madrid and Oscar Arias developed peace plans for Central America that directly countered the objectives of the Reagan policy for the area. Pressures resulting from (a) regional security threats, (b) the flow of refugees into Costa Rica and Mexico, (c) the foreign policy traditions of each country, and (d) the need to counteract the effects of dependence guided these presidents to accept the risks of a defiant foreign policy in order to satisfy local demands. Even though heavily dependent and under pressure from the U.S. government to comply with its regional foreign policy, Mexico and Costa Rica implemented policies that served their own national interests and defied Washington.

Abstract (sommario):

Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la capitale étatsunienne connaît une croissance sans précédent et acquiert une position incontestée de quartier général des Alliés. La Washington de 1945 n'a plus rien à voir avec le paysage urbain peuplé mais somnolent de 1939. Suite à la guerre, que va-t-il advenir du District de Columbia ? Nombre d'acteurs de différents types et niveaux veulent avoir leur mot à dire dans le futur de la capitale. La plupart d'entre eux espèrent utiliser la ville pour promouvoir des intérêts particuliers.Au cours des années d'après-guerre, le District est le théâtre de nombreuses joutes symboliques, qui voient s'affronter l'ensemble des acteurs politiques, économiques et sociaux du pays. Les enjeux sont locaux, nationaux ou internationaux, ils concernent l'administration locale, le droit de vote, la ségrégation, les conditions de logement, etc., ils rejaillissent sur Washington à la fois en tant que ville-symbole et que ville habitée. Ces affrontements et leurs résultats incarnent la capitale et dessinent son futur tout à la fois. Nous étudions ici pourquoi et comment ces évolutions se produisent. Le combat pour l'égalité entre Noirs et Blancs dans le District, par exemple, ouvre la voie à des progrès sur le plan national. La lutte contre les taudis se déroule dans le cadre des programmes de redéveloppement urbain souvent associés au déclin des centres-villes. La lutte pour l'autodétermination et les efforts fournis pour développer les rôles national et international de Washington sont d'autres exemples des dynamiques à l'œuvre dans la capitale entre 1945 et 1955. Après une première partie consacrée à la situation dans le District à la fin de la guerre, afin d'exposer les enjeux qui se posent en 1945, nous examinons les spécificités et implications de son rôle de capitale, tant sur le plan national que sur le plan international. La troisième partie porte sur les évolutions urbaines et sociales dans la ville d'après-guerre.

Abstract (sommario):

In 1902, Larz Anderson III, a Washington diplomat, and his wife, Isabel Weld Perkins Anderson, a Boston author, commissioned the Boston architects Arthur Little and Herbert W. C. Browne to design their winter residence in the District of Columbia. Completed in 1905, this Beaux-Arts mansion now serves as an historic house museum and as the national headquarters for the Society of the Cincinnati, a patriotic organization established by Revolutionary War officers in 1783. Larz Anderson was a member and a descendant of one of the founders of the Society. The fact that Anderson House was designated a national historic landmark in 1996 indicates that it is worthy of national recognition, yet the architectural and historical significance of this socially and politically important building has not been fully investigated. This dissertation examines the edifice by focusing on its patrons, families, architects, design, art collection, and mural paintings.

Abstract (sommario):

Depuis sa création en 1846, la Smithsonian Institution reflète l'évolution des rapports entre sociétés industrielles et traditionnelles, de la domination au respect. Tour à tour vitrines, encyclopédies, centres de recherche scientifique ou lieux de validation de l'idéologie nationale, les musées s'étaient éloignés de l'essence des objets pour n'en retenir que l'apparence, le plus souvent magnifiée par les techniques de conservation. Les années soixante, en remettant en question la pensée cartésienne et le concept d'apprentissage élitiste, contraignirent les conservateurs à intégrer dans leurs pratiques la préservation, l'éducation et l'éthique. Dès lors, l'objet muséal ne fut plus relique mais outil au service de la connaissance des sociétés plurielles, lien entre la raison, les croyances et les sentiments individuels et collectifs. Ainsi conçu, le musée du vingt-et-unième siècle sera tout à la fois mémoire du groupe et de l'individu, mémoire dynamique qui prend en compte le passé, le présent et l'avenir. Les cent quarante millions d'objets qui composent les collections des seize musées de la Smithsonian peuvent se combiner à l'infini pour porter, dans chaque exposition, un regard différent sur le monde. Muséographie et muséologie se complètent pour rapprocher les différences et faire en sorte que le multiculturalisme ne soit pas synonyme de juxtaposition mais d'enrichissement mutuel
Since its creation in 1846 the Smithsonian has followed the evolution of the relations between industrialized and traditional societies, relations that have evolved from domination to respect. By turns showcases, encyclopedias, scientific research centers and places to validate the national ideology, museums had lost the contact with the essence of the object, mostly concerned with its physical appearance, that was often magnified by the techniques of conservation. In the sixties. Cartesian thinking and the elitist education were questioned and, in their practices, curators had to take into account the preservation, as well as the educational role and the ethical dimension of the exhibits. Since then the museal object has no longer been a mere treasure but has enabled visitors to have access to the knowledge of communities in their diversity, it has become a link between rational thinking, beliefs and personal or collective feelings. The 21st century museum should be the memory of the group as well as that of the individual, a dynamic memory stretching between the past, the present and the future. The 140 million objects of the Smithsonian collections can be combined ad infinitum to present the world in different ways. Museography and museology join their competencies so that the multicultural exhibitions may not be a mere juxtaposition of differences but offer an opportunity to share experiences and knowledge

Abstract (sommario):

A travers l’étude des musées de la Smithsonian Institution dans les décennies qui suivent la Seconde Guerre mondiale, cette thèse propose des pistes méthodologiques pour penser le nationalisme aux Etats-Unis. La Smithsonian Institution regroupe des activités de recherche, financées par des fonds indépendants et par des subsides fédéraux, et les Musées Nationaux, essentiellement financés par l’Etat fédéral. Ces musées sont pour la plupart situés sur le National Mall à Washington, dans le centre monumental de la capitale fédérale. Ils sont un observatoire privilégié du nationalisme : en effet, ils se situent à l’articulation entre le pouvoir fédéral et l’activité des professionnels des musées, ce qui permet d’évaluer le degré d’implication de l’Etat dans les Musées Nationaux et la contribution de ce dernier à l’entretien du sentiment national en leur sein. Par ailleurs, la création de nouveaux musées et de nouvelles expositions pose la question de la temporalité dans laquelle s’inscrivent les pratiques nationalistes. Enfin, le rôle des musées, entre explication des phénomènes universels et représentation de la nation, reflète la tension entre l’universel et le particulier qui fonde le nationalisme, compris comme une manière nationale d’être au monde
This dissertation focuses on the Smithsonian Museums in the decades following World War II and tests ways of conceptualizing nationalism in the United States. The Smithsonian Institution includes some research bureaus, which are funded with federal and independent funds, and the National Museums, mostly run with federal funds. Almost all National Museums are situated on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., at the monumental heart of the federal capital. They provide an observatory of nationalism, as they are a contact zone between the federal power and museum people, which brings to light the degree to which the government gets involved in the National Museums and the federal contribution to the maintenance of national feelings through museums. Besides, the creation of new museums and new exhibitions suggests that nationalist practices develop within a specific time frame. Finally, as museums oscillate between the exhibition of universal phenomena and that of national features, they magnify the tension between universalism and particularism that is the basis for nationalism, defined as a national way of belonging to the world

The Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association (CCBA) is “the supreme organization” of Chinese American society around the United States over one hundred years. In the situation of racial discrimination and segregation, it had protected Chinese from the outside world and administrated Chinese as a government. The leadership of CCBA is usually controlled by Cantonese who is the earliest arrival of all Chinese groups of the United States. The composition of Chinese which changes with the conditions of politic, society, law and so on influences each CCBA with time. Some of them decline and some stop working, but the CCBA of San Francisco and New York City, two most notable of all CCBAs, still keep running and controlled by Cantonese. However, there is a special one called “Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association of Washington, D. C.” which have little attention of scholars. It is not only younger than others, it was established in 1950s, but also have some non-Cantonese Chinese members who join the leadership. From the perspective of Washington’s Chinese history, this study will discuss that why Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association of Washington, D. C have different history. First of all, this study argues that Washington’s special political and social conditions which affect by the Federal Government lets “Tong,” the secret society, modernize so that is able to control the leadership of Washington’s Chinese, and had delayed the established time of CCBA. Second, CCBA retain the Tong’s property, so it is not only have well-educated leaders but able to follow the development of Chinese American history to admit other Chinese group to its leadership.

Abstract (sommario):

This chapter explains Article I of the Colorado Constitution, which defines the state’s boundaries. The constitution adopted the boundaries established by Congress under the Organic Act establishing Colorado Territory in 1861, ignoring earlier proposals that used the continental divide as a boundary. The state’s east-west limits are defined by two meridians measured from Washington, D. C. The north-south boundaries are set at 37 and 41 degrees of north latitude. A resurvey of the 37^th parallel led to New Mexico’s suit to claim a significant slice of territory, but the Supreme Court rejected the revision based on the standard rule that a resurvey does not change a boundary that has been relied on.

Abstract Ulysses S. Grant becomes president of the United States. Washington appoints James B. McKean as Utah’s new chief justice. McKean appoints Robert N. Baskin as Utah’s interim federal district attorney. Prosecutors charge Brigham Young with lascivious cohabitation and murder. Latter-day Saints fear Young will be murdered in jail as was his predecessor, Joseph Smith. Young could have escaped into Arizona but chose to fight the charges. John Wesley Powell’s men encounter Jacob Hamblin, Isaac Haight, George Adair, and some Navajos. They spend a night together on the banks of the Colorado River. Hamblin decides the Saints should own the crossing and asks John D. Lee to settle it. Hamblin writes to Young, telling some of what he knows about the Mountain Meadows Massacre. George C. Bates becomes Utah’s district attorney and gets a copy of Philip Klingensmith’s affidavit. He prepares to prosecute the massacre participants.

Abstract (sommario):

Abstract This paper is a historical review of the design and operation of the Pennsylvania Railroad’s class GG1 electric locomotive over its heavily-trafficked New York City-Washington, DC main line during the period 1934–1983. The locomotive was designed in-house by the railroad in corroboration with Baldwin Locomotive, General Electric and Westinghouse Electric following competitive tests of several electric locomotive designs. Its outstanding performance and long operating life has resulted in it being generally considered the most highly regarded electric locomotive in North America. The Pennsylvania Railroad embarked in the late 1920’s on a major AC electrification program for its New York-Washington and Philadelphia-Harrisburg main lines and local branches. It initially planned to use a fleet of class P5 rigid frame 2-C-2 electric locomotives for service. However problems were quickly encountered with damaging lateral track impacts, axle cracks, truck hunting, and inadequate tractive effort. The railroad responded with a series of competitive evaluation tests of several locomotive designs including a recent New York, New Haven & Hartford (NYNH&H) Railroad articulated frame locomotive, using an ingenious method to measure truck lateral forces. As a result, the railroad developed two prototype electric locomotive designs, a rigid frame class R1 2-D-2 and an articulated frame class GG1 2-C+C-2. Follow-up track testing verified that the GG1 had lower track lateral forces, and was selected for production. The 4,620 hp GG1 combined several significant North American design concepts: - Exceptional power from six double-armature traction motors for heavy passenger train operation at 100 mph; - Double-ended body design to eliminate the need to turn locomotives; - Use of separate truck frames with an articulation joint connection, allowing improved rail tracking and lower lateral forces; - Housing the main transformer and locomotive cabs in the center body, providing increased crew accident protection in collisions; - Use of high voltage Alternating Current (11 kV at 25 Hz); and - One of the first applications of Industrial Design (by Donald R. Dohner and Raymond F. Loewy) producing a streamlined locomotive using a welded carbody. The GG1 was quickly recognized as a rare combination of stellar performance, robust construction, and low maintenance costs. It was used to inaugurate electrified New York-Washington operations, performed admirably during World War II, successfully made the later transition to freight train operation, and was finally retired in October 1983. The prototype GG1 locomotive 4800 has been designated an ASME national engineering landmark.

Abstract (sommario):

According to some estimates, a majority of the accidents in the nuclear domain have been associated with failures in the use of procedures. A traditional model of procedure design and usage is based on the idea that because procedures represent the best understanding people have of the way their work has to be conducted, safety results from operator following procedures in a conscientiousness manner. However, procedure guidance and operator competencies are not conflicting views, but something that are aligned in safe and efficient operator practices. According to these views, even though procedures are resources for action, they cannot guarantee safety as such, and people need skills to apply procedures successfully. Our aim is to build a better understanding of the procedure design practices in one Finnish nuclear power plant, and outline a Human Factors Engineering (HFE) framework for procedure design based on theoretical work and on ethnographic case study approach. Procedures are designed through a series of steps (i.e., task analysis, format selection, draft preparation, verification and validation, and approval for release). These steps are similar to the phases of the Human Factors Engineering Program Review Model (O’Hara et al., 2012), but procedure design is not always described in terms of HFE. The paper describes the development of a method for the analysis of procedure design practice and some examples of the application of the method. We monitor and follow up the procedure development from the kick-off meeting to verification and validation (V&V) and approval for release through an ethnographic approach. The procedure design process includes familiarizing ourselves with the company’s procedure design guidance, participating in design meetings, interviewing procedure writers, reviewing the draft versions of the procedure, and observing procedure V&V activities at the simulator. A toolkit to study practice at work is used (Nicholini, 2013), which is based on a palette of sensitizing research questions, the answers to which are sought by the above-mentioned methods of data collection.The research work is still in the beginning stages, with procedure writer interviews conducted. According to these interviews, procedure design process can be seen as a social practice which itself is under constant development. For example, even though procedure writing has mainly been deskwork, simulators and simulation models play an increasing role in procedure development. It is very difficult to imagine all possible sequences of events while working at desk; when you test the procedure in the simulator, it is possible to see how the events unfold in real world. Also, co-creation is nowadays a key concept in process development. In co-creation workshops, experts from different domains are involved and can participate in the design activities. Also, engagement of end-users was seen as very important, and feedback from end-users is nowadays increasingly collected and reviewed several times during the development process.

Abstract (sommario):

The original objectives were: A. To determine the critical embryonic age for monochromatic green light stimulation. B. To follow the ontogeny of embryos exposed to monochromatic green light vs. darkness. C. To investigate the effects of monochromatic green light illumination on myoblast and fiber development in the embryo. D. To investigate the stimulatory effect of light combinations during embryo and post-hatch periods on growth and meat production. E. To evaluate the direct effect of monochromatic green light on cultured embryonic and adult myoblasts. The overall purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of monochromatic light stimuli during incubation period of broilers on muscle development and satellite cell myogenesis. Based on previous studies (Halevy et al., 1998; Rozenboim et al., 1999) that demonstrated the positive effects of green-light illumination on body and muscle growth, we hypothesized that monochromatic light illumination accelerates embryo and muscle development and subsequently enhances muscle growth and meat production. Thus, further decreases management costs. Under the cooperation of the laboratories at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and University of Washington we have conducted the following: 1. We have established the critical stage for exposure to green monochromatic light which has the maximal effect on body and muscle growth (Objective A). We report that embryonic day 5 is optimal for starting illumination. The optimal regime of lighting that will eliminate possible heat effects was evaluated by monitoring egg core temperature at various illumination periods. We found that intermitted lighting (15 min. on; 15 min. off) is optimal to avoid heat effects. 2. We have evaluated in detail gross changes in embryo development profile associated to green light stimuli vs. darkness. In addition, we have investigated the stimulatory effect of light combinations during embryo and post-hatch periods on body and muscle growth (Objective B,D). 3. We have studied the expression profile of muscle regulatory proteins during chicken muscle cell differentiation in cultures using newly developed antibodies. This study paved the way for analyzing the expression of these proteins in our photo stimulation experiments (Objective C). 4. We have studied the pattern ofPax7 expression during myogenesis in the posthatch chicken. Experimental chick pectoralis muscles as well adult myoblast cultures were used in this study and the results led us to propose a novel model for satellite cell differentiation and renewal. 5. The effects of monochromatic green light illumination during embryogenesis have been studied. These studies focused on fetal myoblast and satellite cell proliferation and differentiation at pre- and posthatch periods and on the effects on the expression of muscle regulatory proteins which are involved in these processes. In addition, we have analyzed the effect of photo stimulation in the embryo on myofiber development at early posthatch (Objective C). 6. In follow the reviewers' comments we have not conducted Objective E. The information gathered from these studies is of utmost importance both, for understanding the molecular basis of muscle development in the posthatch chicks and for applied approach for future broiler management. Therefore, the information could be beneficial to agriculture in the short term on the one hand and to future studies on chick muscle development in the embryo and posthatch on the other hand.

Abstract (sommario):

Original objectives: [a] Screen an array of chickpea and wild annual Cicer germplasm for winter survival. [b] Genetic analysis of winter hardiness in domesticated x wild chickpea crosses. [c] Genetic analysis of vernalization response in domesticated x wild chickpea crosses. [d] Digital expression analysis of a core selection of breeding and germplasm lines of chickpea that differ in winter hardiness and vernalization. [e] Identification of the genes involved in the chickpea winter hardiness and vernalization and construction of gene network controlling these traits. [f] Assessing the phenotypic and genetic correlations between winter hardiness, vernalization response and Ascochyta blight response in chickpea. The complexity of the vernalization response and the inefficiency of our selection experiments (below) required quitting the work on ascochyta response in the framework of this project. Background to the subject: Since its introduction to the Palouse region of WA and Idaho, and the northern Great Plains, chickpea has been a spring rotation legume due to lack of winter hardiness. The short growing season of spring chickpea limits its grain yield and leaves relatively little stubble residue for combating soil erosion. In Israel, chilling temperatures limit pod setting in early springs and narrow the effective reproductive time window of the crop. Winter hardiness and vernalization response of chickpea alleles were lost due to a series of evolutionary bottlenecks; however, such alleles are prevalent in its wild progenitor’s genepool. Major conclusions, solutions, achievements: It appears that both vernalization response and winter hardiness are polygenic traits in the wild-domesticated chickpea genepool. The main conclusion from the fieldwork in Israel is that selection of domesticated winter hardy and vernalization responsive types should be conducted in late flowering and late maturity backgrounds to minimize interference by daylength and temperature response alleles (see our Plant Breeding paper on the subject). The main conclusion from the US winter-hardiness studies is that excellent lines have been identified for germplasm release and continued genetic study. Several of the lines have good seed size and growth habit that will be useful for introgressing winter-hardiness into current chickpea cultivars to develop releases for autumn sowing. We sequenced the transcriptomes and profiled the expression of genes in 87 samples. Differential expression analysis identified a total of 2,452 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between vernalized plants and control plants, of which 287 were shared between two or more Cicer species studied. We cloned 498 genes controlling vernalization, named CVRN genes. Each of the CVRN genes contributes to flowering date advance (FDA) by 3.85% - 10.71%, but 413 (83%) other genes had negative effects on FDA, while only 83 (17%) had positive effects on FDA, when the plant is exposed to cold temperature. The cloned CVRN genes provide new toolkits and knowledge to develop chickpea cultivars that are suitable for autumn-sowing. Scientific & agricultural implications: Unlike the winter cereals (barley, wheat) or pea, in which a single allelic change may induce a switch from winter to spring habit, we were unable to find any evidence for such major gene action in chickpea. In agricultural terms this means that an alternative strategy must be employed in order to isolate late flowering – ascochyta resistant (winter types) domesticated forms to enable autumn sowing of chickpea in the US Great Plains. An environment was identified in U.S. (eastern Washington) where autumn-sown chickpea production is possible using the levels of winter-hardiness discovered once backcrossed into advanced cultivated material with acceptable agronomic traits. The cloned CVRN genes and identified gene networks significantly advance our understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying plant vernalization in general, and chickpea in particular, and provide a new toolkit for switching chickpea from a spring-sowing to autumn-sowing crop.
