A spore print is made by placing the spore-producing surface flat on a sheet of dark and white paper or on a sheet of clear, stiff plastic, which facilitates moving the spore print to a darker or lighter surface for improved contrast; for example, it is easier to determine whether the spore print is pure white or, rather, very slightly pigmented. The mushroom is left for several hours, often overnight, in this manner. Some guides advise using a moisture-resistant enclosure, like a glass or jar, to contain the mushroom during printing. If the mushroom is to be preserved, a small hole can be made in the spore print paper rather than cutting the stipe.[2] When the mushroom is removed, the colour of the spores should be visible. Mycologists often use glass slides, which allow for quick examination of spores under a microscope. A mushroom cannot be identified from its spore print alone; the spore print is only one characteristic used in making a taxonomic determination. Spore prints are usually white ...

In fungi, both asexual and sexual spores or sporangiospores of many fungal species are actively dispersed by forcible ejection from their reproductive structures. This ejection ensures exit of the spores from the reproductive structures as well as travelling through the air over long distances. Many fungi thereby possess specialized mechanical and physiological mechanisms as well as spore-surface structures, such as hydrophobins, for spore ejection. These mechanisms include, for example, forcible discharge of ascospores enabled by the structure of the ascus and accumulation of osmolytes in the fluids of the ascus that lead to explosive discharge of the ascospores into the air.[7]. The forcible discharge of single spores termed ballistospores involves formation of a small drop of water (Bullers drop), which upon contact with the spore leads to its projectile release with an initial acceleration of more than 10,000 g.[8] Other fungi rely on alternative mechanisms for spore release, such as ...

After Sunday mornings win against EBC, the Swarm returned to the same Tahoma High School court to battle Way to Win (WTW) for a tournament medal. WTW scored first, and followed it up with a free throw for an early 3-0 lead, but the Swarm quickly matched them and pulled ahead after three minutes of play, 3-5.For the next few minutes, the game remained tight: WTW tied the game again on the next possession, but moments later, the Swarm were up again, 5-7. With six minutes elapsed in the first period, WTW tied the game again, and seconds later regained the lead at 10-7. But the Swarm kept it close, still trailing by only three points after 13 minutes of play, 15-12.. But with only two subs available on the bench, the Swarm started to slow down as the half wore on. Five minutes before halftime, WTW had increased their lead to five points, and then nine points with three minutes to go. Going into halftime, the score was 31-14, a seventeen point difference.. The second half followed the same pattern: ...

The use of spores as probiotics is highly important as spores are designed to survive through the gastric system and colonize well to produce the needed effects. Additionally, spores make a potent impact in the gut since the spore population in the gut is low enough that the 4 billion spores added each day through MegaSporeBiotic will make a potent impact on the sensory systems in the gastrointestinal tract to create beneficial effects. Spores are also important to police and defend the gut from unwanted microbes and to support the growth of the natural species found in each individual. A mega dose, spore culture/consortium formula with broad-spectrum activity, has only been available as a pharmaceutical drug, until now MegaSporeBiotic is the first offered as a dietary supplement.. A culmination of published research shows that spores, like those found in MegaSporeBiotic, when used as probiotics could confer the following beneficial effects:. ...

Nanoswarms and Microswarms: Can you escape from swarms? What if you stumble across a swarm of Disassemblers? Most morphs can easily outrun swarms. So if someone tried to run away, would they be safe or would the swarm be carried with them?. Saboteur Nanoswarm: I think this is broken. Every 5 action turns, there is a 50% chance it inflicts a wound (and equivalent damage). The target will be incapacitated once 5 wounds are inflicted.. The odds of a Case, a Reaper, or something bigger being taken down by this swarm is the same. I dont think this is right. I think bigger, tougher shells should be harder to disable. Shells with more DUR and armor.. It also skips over armor too quickly. What if the shell was wearing a vacsuit or something else that can keep the swarm out?

Bacteria are one of the premier biological forces that, in combination with chemical and physical forces, drive metal availability in the environment. Bacterial spores, when found in the environment, are often considered to be dormant and metabolically inactive, in a resting state waiting for favorable conditions for them to germinate. However, this is a highly oversimplified view of spores in the environment. The surface of bacterial spores represents a potential site for chemical reactions to occur. Additionally, proteins in the outer layers (spore coats or exosporium) may also have more specific catalytic activity. As a consequence, bacterial spores can play a role in geochemical processes and may indeed find uses in various biotechnological applications. The aim of this review is to introduce the role of bacteria and bacterial spores in biogeochemical cycles and their potential use as toxic metal bioremediation agents.

Methods for enhancing destruction and killing of bacterial spores via phagocytosis, where phagocytosis of bacterial spores is enhanced by using a glycoconjugate. In one embodiment, the method includes the steps of modifying a surface of a bacterial spore to increase adherence to a phagocyte; and ingesting the adherence-increased spore with the phagocyte, thereby destructing and killing the spore by blocking spore-induced phagocyte cell death, while increasing phagocyte activation level and production of antimicrobial and cytocidal agents such as NO and inflammatory cytokines. The adherence of spore to a phagocyte is increased after the surface thereof is coated with a glycoconjugate to form a glycoconjugate-coated spores. The glycoconjugate-coated spores also increase ingestion of the spores by phagocytes and facilitate phagosome-lysosome fusion, which in turn results in destruction and killing of bacterial spores via phagocytosis. The method enhances

Terpenoids, also known as isoprenoids, are a large class of natural products consisting of isoprene (C5) units. There are two biosynthetic pathways, the mevalonate pathway [MD:M00095] and the non-mevalonate pathway or the MEP/DOXP pathway [MD:M00096], for the terpenoid building blocks: isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP). The action of prenyltransferases then generates higher-order building blocks: geranyl diphosphate (GPP), farsenyl diphosphate (FPP), and geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP), which are the precursors of monoterpenoids (C10), sesquiterpenoids (C15), and diterpenoids (C20), respectively. Condensation of these building blocks gives rise to the precursors of sterols (C30) and carotenoids (C40). The MEP/DOXP pathway is absent in higher animals and fungi, but in green plants the MEP/DOXP and mevalonate pathways co-exist in separate cellular compartments. The MEP/DOXP pathway, operating in the plastids, is responsible for the formation of essential oil ...

Since the distribution of anthrax causing spores through the U.S. Postal System in the autumn of 2001, numerous methods have been developed to detect spores with the goal of minimizing casualties. During and following an attack it is also important to detect spores on surfaces, to assess extent of an attack, to quantify risk of infection by contact, as well as to evaluate post-attack clean-up. To perform useful measurements, analyzers and/or methods must be capable of detecting as few as 10 spores/cm2, in under 5-minutes, with little or no sample preparation or false-positive responses, using a portable device. In an effort to develop such a device, we have been investigating the ability of surfaceenhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to detect dipicolinic acid (DPA) as a chemical signature of bacilli spores. In 2003 we employed SERS to measure DPA extracted from a 10,000 spores per μL sample using hot dodecylamine. Although the entire measurement was performed in 2 minutes, the need to heat the ...

Rapid isolation and identification of spores from various environmental samples is necessitated because anthrax spores can be used as biological weapons. The hydrophobic nature of spores may allow for their rapid concentration and partial purification from contaminating materials. In this study, spores from four taxonomic groups of Bacillaceae were isolated, purified and characterized for hydrophobicity by hexadecane partitioning, surface morphology by scanning electron microscopy, and steady-state fluorescence by spectroscopy. The morphology of spores was similar within taxonomic groups and dissimilar between groups. Spore hydrophobicity ranged from 0.3% to 65% and all spores had fluorescence emission peaks at 335 nm and 450 nm. The excitation maxima for the peak at 450 nm were shifted to higher wavelengths for the least hydrophobic spores. Regression analysis demonstrated a correlation between the taxonomic identity, as established by fatty acid analyses, and hydrophobicity. Hydrophobicity can

Fungal spores are one of several environmental factors responsible for causing respiratory diseases like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and aspergillosis. These spores also are able to trigger exacerbations during chronic forms of disease. Different fungal spores may contain different allergens and mycotoxins, therefore the health hazards are varying between the species. Thus, it is highly important quickly to identify the composition of fungal spores in the air. In this study, UV-Raman spectroscopy with an excitation wavelength of 244 nm was applied to investigate eight different fungal species implicated in respiratory diseases worldwide. Here, we demonstrate that darkly colored spores can be directly examined, and UV-Raman spectroscopy provides the information sufficient for classifying fungal spores. Classification models on the genus, species, and strain levels were built using a combination of principal component analysis and linear discriminant analysis followed by

In angiosperms, during flower development the anther is composed of a mass of cells that appear undifferentiated, except for a partially differentiated dermis. As the flower develops, four groups of sporogenous cells form with in the anther, the fertile sporogenous cells are surrounded by layers of sterile cells that grow into the wall of the pollen sac, some of the cells grow into nutritive cells that supply nutrition for the microspores that form by meiotic division from the sporogenous cells. Four haploid microspores are produced from each diploid sporogenous cell called a microsporocyte, after meiotic division. After the formation of the four microspores, which are contained by callose walls, the development of the pollen grain walls begins. The callose wall is broken down by an enzyme called callase and the freed pollen grains grow in size and develop their characteristic shape and form a resistant outer wall called the exine and an inner wall called the intine. The exine is what is ...

Bacterial spore formers have been the focus of intense study for almost half a century. The most heavily studied of these is Bacillus subtilis, an internationally recognized model organism, whose physiology, biochemistry and genetics have been studied for many years. Under nutrient rich conditions, B. subtilis grows and multiplies by a process of cell expansion followed by division at mid-cell to generate identical daughter cells; however, B. subtilis also has the ability to form spores, dormant cells which are resistant to many of the chemical and physical challenges that normally kill bacteria. Although many of the basic aspects of this process are now well understood, bacterial sporulation still remains a highly attractive model for studying various cell processes at a molecular level. There are several reasons for this interest. First, some of the more complex sporulation steps are not fully understood or are only described using controversial models. Second, the extensive attention lavished on

Parasite spores. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of microsporidia (Tubulinosema ratisbonensis) spores cultured on human lung fibroblast cells (brown). Microsporidia are single-celled parasites. T. ratisbonenesis is a parasite of the fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster), but may also be able to infect humans with weakened immune systems. The spores are the infective phase of the life cycle. They are excreted by the host and enter the gut of a new host. The spores contents, the sporoplasm, are injected into the hosts cells via the polar tubule (two seen). Once in the cell the organism divides many times with the resultant organisms producing more spores. Magnification: x5100 at 10 centimetres wide. - Stock Image Z115/0075

Instead of tight, focused columns that concentrate the ants efforts at a single point at the raid front, E. burchelliis raids are messy, diffuse affairs.

Raids set out in the morning with a swarm front near the overnight bivuoac. As the day progresses, the swarm moves through the forest for a distance about that of a football field. The back end of the swarm organizes into a series of converging trails to funnel captured prey back to the bivouac, so that by mid-day the swarm from above looks rather like the figure at left. Last nights video featured one such trail.

Now, sometimes we are lucky and can hive the swarm if the queen lands in a convenient and easy to reach location (not on a branch 200 feet in the air). But what really sucks about swarms, especially for queen breeders, is when their prized queen, (the one theyve been collecting data on for the past few years; the one they are about to graft from to produce more queens), flies away - or as we seasoned beekeepers like to say, she hits the trees. One of the largest swarms I ever saw was in the top of an old pine tree. It broke my heart because in the middle of that massive, unreachable swarm was one of my favorite queens that I was only days away from grafting from. If only I had a bucket truck, she would have been back inside a comfy hive. Instead, she flew away several days later - never to be seen again. Over the years, our bee lab receives numerous calls during the Spring months about swarms - from frustrated beekeepers to nervous public folk who are afraid to go outside due to the massive ...

We are particularly interested in understanding the molecular mechanisms of spore germination, which dormant spores undergo when stimulated to return to the vegetative state. We are also interested in the composition and assembly of the spore coat and exosporium, and aim to define the structures and functions of the various proteins that form this primary protective barrier.. We use a range of approaches to gain insight to spore biology at the molecular level, including genetic, biochemical, crystallographic and advanced imaging techniques.. Overall, our objective is to consider fundamental insights to spore structure and physiology in the context of public health, food safety, counter-terrorism and environmental decontamination, and to determine how such information might then be applied to improve current capabilities in these sectors.. Enquiries concerning post-graduate research opportunities, industrial collaborations, or general information concerning the groups activities, should be ...

TY - GEN. T1 - Effect of ovalbumin and anti-foam B on the survivability of spore forming bacteria collected in a Wetted Wall Cyclone. AU - Kassab, Asmaa S.. AU - King, Maria D.. AU - Guo, Bing. AU - McFarland, Andrew R.. PY - 2011. Y1 - 2011. N2 - The effect of different collection fluids in maintaining the survivability, defined as the culturability in the archived sample divided by the culturability in the as-collected sample, were experimentally determined for Bacillus globigii (BG). The spores were collected using a 100 L/min Wetted Wall Cyclone (WWC) and archived for five days at 25°C and 4°C. Aqueous solutions of 0.01% Tween20 and 30% Ethylene glycol (EG), with or without 0.5% ovalbumin (OA), were used as collection fluids with 0.2% Antifoam B (A-F). The spores were more stable in EG and at 4°C, very likely due to the surfactant effect of the Tween20, which would remove the spore coat and initiate germination. Adding OA significantly increased the survivability, especially at RT while ...

Endospore Stain The endospore stain is a differential stain used to visualize bacterial endospores. Endospores are formed by a few genera of bacteria, such as Bacillus . By forming spores, bacteria can survive in hostile conditions. Spores are resistant to heat, dessication, chemicals, and radiation. Bacteria can form endospores in approximately 6 to 8 hours after being exposed to adverse conditions. The normally-growing cell that forms the endospore is called a vegetative cell. Spores are metabolically inactive and dehydrated. They can remain viable for thousands of years. When spores are exposed to favorable conditions, they can germinate into a vegetative cell within 90 minutes. Endospores can form within different areas of the vegetative cell. They can be central, subterminal, or terminal. Central endospores are located within the middle of the vegetative cell. Terminal endospores are located at the end of the vegetative cell.

Swarm robotics is a field of research exploring the idea that very large groups (100+) of simple, cheap and replaceable robots could be robust in challenging environments. Such environments could include areas of pollution, for example on a lake with a fertilizer-induced algal bloom, or high radiation (eg. the Fukushima nuclear plant disaster following an earthquake and tsunami). In such cases a swarm of robots could rapidly map an area and locate hotspots of concern much faster than a single robot. Yet swarm robotics so far remains mostly laboratory-bound. This project will contribute toward the engineering of a swarm of robots that can be deployed in the real world, through algorithm design and simulation (software) and/or robot design and build (hardware).. ...

Before I got into beekeeping, I didnt know that there was a swarm season, let along what a swarm was. Bees flying all around chaotically sounds downright terrifying, but it isnt, and Ill tell you why. What Is A Swarm? In short, a swarm is a product of how a colony of bees reproduce. Not individuals reproducing, but

Spore, one of the most anticipated games to come out recently, now has a new following of hate growing around the way the game implements DRM. Digital Right Management is on just about every piece of software in one way or another, but the methods Spore is using is a bit overstepping the boundaries. The DRM on Spore is provided by securom. Securom is sometimes referred to as malware or a virus in that it installs itself to your computer and modifies the CD-ROMs q-channel in order to make a protected original distinguishable from a copy. ...

Yo netters, Ive been taught and have taught that mosses and liverworts are homosporous, however, many texts and even lab books show two kinds of gametophytes being produced from two different spores. Does this mean that although the spores look alike they are still different? Is this homospory or heterospory? What is going on here? Are there two kinds of homospory where one spore produces one gametophyte with both archegonia and antheridia and another where there are two kinds of gametophytes? I know the plants couldnt care less!! Can anyone answer this? Thanks in advance, ================================================================================ Dave Haas () Department of Natural Sciences (()) Fayetteville State University ((())) Fayetteville NC, 28301 USA ...

A longstanding challenge in developmental biology is to understand how organisms construct large structures that ultimately help define how that organism looks. We are approaching this problem by examining the morphogenesis of a simple organism, a bacterial spore, and are trying to understand how it achieves its characteristic morphology. Spores are dormant cell types that are encased in a thick protein shell, termed the coat. Spores are highly resistant to environmental insults, and this resistance is due, in part, to the protective properties of the coat. Assembly of the basement layer of the coat depends on a tiny protein, called SpoVM, which anchors the coat onto the surface of the developing spore. We have discovered that SpoVM localizes properly by preferentially embedding in convex, or positively curved, membranes, such as those found on the surface of the spore. SpoVM then recruits a novel cytoskeletal protein, called SpoIVA, which polymerizes by hydrolyzing ATP to form a stable ...

You can see, in Figure 2, how a swarm regulates its collective temperature at different ambient air temperatures; on the left side it is only 5oC (40°F), and the bees are having to work hard to actively maintain the temperature between the core (35oC) and the mantle (19oC). A hot day of 30oC (86oF) is illustrated on the right, and bees in the mantle are mostly at rest with some active bees, most likely to be scouts. The channels between bees allows air to circulate by convection helping keep the temperature in the middle uniformly 35oC (95oF), whilst the mantle is 31oC (88oF).. But how does all this relate to swarm takeoff? Well, typically a swarm of about 10,000 honey bees hangs in a beard-like cluster from a solid object, often a tree, whilst the 300 to 500 scout bees go and choose a new home. They may hang for a few hours, or a few days, until a quorum of scouts has built up at one of the sites, which marks the end of the scouts decision-making process. Then its time for all the bees in ...

I am about to inoculate a few jars but they were kinda warm from being in my car today and i was wondering if it would be ok to proceed. What temperature is the highest the spore can be placed in

To study and characterise the ionospheric plasma irregularities at all latitudes, one can employ in-situ measurements by satellites in polar orbits, such as the European Space Agencys Swarm mission. Based on the Swarm data, we have developed the Ionospheric Plasma IRregularities (IPIR) product for a global characterisation of ionospheric irregularities along the satellite track at all latitudes. This new Level-2 data product combines complementary datasets from the Swarm satellites: the electron density from the electric field instrument, the GPS data from the onboard GPS receiver, and the magnetic field data from the onboard magnetometers. This can be used as a new tool for global studies of ionospheric irregularities and turbulence ...

Blizzard Entertainment released several screenshots of the Evolution Chamber UI which allows you to upgrade your units in between each mission. Kaldir and Char scenarios and critters. Some of the mission objectives are shown.. The Char and Kaldir missions have the same title, which makes me think the War for the Brood title refers to a chapter within the Heart of the Swarm campaign. The mission in Char sets players to liberate the Zerg Homeworld from a renegade Queen named Zagara. With the defeat of the Queen of Blades, and her loss of powers, Zagara wishes to claim control of the Swarm.. Kerrigan wont be alone in this crusade to regain control of the Zerg. Former allies who served her when she was the Queen of Blades will assist her: Abathur and Izsha.. Players must race through Char to capture several Baneling eggs left behind by the Queen of Blades, before Zagara takes control of them. That mission will introduce an area of Char not seen before. Lands of acid pools which give the ...

From the beginning of its legendary hype cycle, Spore was intended to be a phenomenon like The Sims, which continues to resonate because it offers an odd, compelling perspective on the monotony of human life. Yet Spore, with its disjointed stages and unconvincing jumble of evolution and creationism, always seemed…

If you pre-orded Will Wright's upcoming opus Spore from the Electronic Arts Store you can hit up EA today to pre-load the game. Once pre-ordered you can use the EA Download Manager to download 99 percent of the game to your computer. That's the good news. The bad news is that that last 1 percent of Spore is going to take you 30 minutes to an hour to download and install on on Sept. 7 when the game hits North America. Own a Mac? Then you're out of luck until the game ships. I just popped over to the Sporepedia to see how creature creating was moving along. It looks like gamers have now crafted more than 3 million critters, including one from Will Wright himself. That's right he finally got around to creating his creature for the Sporelebirty contest. The three-eyed beastie is called Tricolps. (I'm stilling clinging to the number five position in the contest.)

Interestingly, the median spore count for all premises, with one exception, was greater in the affected fields than the paired control fields. Although no statistically significant difference could be identified between paired fields, this likely reflects the inherent limitation in the number of samples which could be analysed and therefore the number of premises sampled. Furthermore, there was marked variation in spore count across each pasture, an inherently problematic factor when interpreting such data without knowledge of the preceding grazing practices of the affected cases. In all 5 premises analysed for Fusarium speciation, 3 main Fusarium species were isolated and, in agreement with the spore counts, at 4 out of the 5 premises, Fusarium levels were generally lower in the control fields than in the affected field (Figure 1). Interestingly, at the single site where this pattern was not observed, samples were collected several weeks following the occurrence of disease. This ...
