Emerging compounds are continuously recognized in the environment and many are yet to be evaluated with regard to their environmental level, fate and subsequent biological effects. Most of these are high-volume-production chemicals which can accumulate due to their special chemical properties and persistency under ambient environmental conditions. Identification and detection of potential sources of emerging compounds in waste water discharges  was performed by GC-MS full scan analysis.

Emerging compounds are continuously recognized in the environment and many are yet to be evaluated with regard to their environmental level, fate and subsequent biological effects. Most of these chemicals are present at trace level concentration but they can accumulate due to their persitency and special chemical properties. Municipal, hospital, agricultural sewage and leachates from deposits are the major entrance and distribution pathways in environment1-4. Identification and detection of potential sources of emerging compounds in waste water discharges  was performed by GC-MS full scan analysis.

The liquid fertilizers (1) Calcinit (Ca NO3)2)+ Superba, (2) Arena Crystal, (3) Flex, (4) Plant Marvel, (5) Sea Power and (6) Sea Power + Superba  were evaluated in two greenhouse experiments growing Agrostis stolonifera on columns filled with 30 cm USGA-spec. sand (ignition loss 1.4%, pH (H20) 5.6, CEC 2.7 meq/100 g dry soil) over 10 cm gravel. In expt. 1 the products were compared at weekly rates of 0.1 and 0.2 kg N/100m2 combined with two irrigation levels (1 x ET and 2x ET) during an 8 wk grow-in period; in expt. 2 as maintenance fertilizer to established turf at weekly rates of 0.05 and 0.1 kg N/100m2. Based on weekly determination of visual turfgrass quality and clipping yields, the ranking of fertilizers in the grow-in trial were Sea Power + Superba  > Sea Power > Plant Marvel = Flex > Arena Crystal > Calcinit + Superba.  Given as maintenance fertilizer, Plant Marvel and Arena Crystal gave higher visual quality and less invasion of moss than Sea Power, the other fertilizers producing results that were not significantly different. The results are discussed in relation to nitrogen form and the content of other nutrients in the various products.

No significant differences in frost tolerance between velvet bentgrass and creeping bentgrass was observed when freezing occurred directly after acclimation. Acclimation under natural conditions was more effective than under controlled conditions. The quantitative and qualitative composition of nonstructural carbohydrates, particularly fructans, varied among bentgrass species, but did not correlate with frost tolerance. The accumulation of fructans may play a role in other aspects of winter hardiness. Subfreezing acclimation increased the frost tolerance of velvet bentgrass and creeping bentgrass.

Sammendrag

Freezing tolerance is a major component of winter hardiness of perennial grasses. Velvet bentgrass showed the same freezing tolerance as creeping bentgrass. Acclimation at temperatures above 0 ºC was associated with accumulation of nonstructural carbohydrates and enhanced plant survival after freezing. Acclimation at 2 ºC for 4 wk was more effective than for 2 wk and resulted in higher concentrations of fructans. Additional subzero acclimation at -2 ºC resulted in a reduction in fructans and higher concentration of reducing sugars; however, there was no additional improvement in freezing tolerance.  Protein analysis was performed using 2-D polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Nineteen protein spots were responsive to acclimation. Thirteen proteins were identified. Identified proteins belonged to metabolism, energy, disease/defence, and secondary metabolism functional groups.
