STUDIES ON THE PHYSIOLOGY AND UTILIZATION OF VITAMIN B₁ IN SOME GARDEN CROPS

The present study has been carried out with the intention of elucidating the physiological action of thiamine in higher plants and the methods of its utilization for culti-vating garden crops. The main materials were: sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas LAM.), potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L1NN. ), and kidney beans (Phaseolus vulgaris LINN. ). (1) Thiamine application at moderate concentration promotes the germination of seeds or increases the germination rate of old seeds. (2) In the germinating seeds the thiamine stored is transformed from free form to ester form and is consumed in the dark nearly in parallel to the decrease of dry weight. By the artificial application of thiamine, the rate of respiration is remarkably increased. (3) The thiamine content of old seeds is decreased nearly in proportion to the time elapsed; the rate of germination is closely related to the thiamine content. (4) Foliar thiamine spray at moderate concentration is effective for the initiation and development of root, flower bud differentiation, and the increase of the yield of crops; larger tubers and weighty pods were produced and the flavor of crops was improved. (5) The optimum concentration of thiamine solution for seed soaking, as well as for foliar spray, lies at 1 ppm or thereabouts. Spraying is more effective in the first half than in the latter half of the growing period of plants. (6) Under unfavorable conditions of light, temperature, and fertilizer, the thiamine application is especially effective for the growth of plants. (7) When applied in optimum quantity, phosphorus is the most effective of the three fertilizer elements, i. e. nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, for the thiamine activity in plants. (8) The foliar thiamine spray combined with a low concentration sugar solution is more effective than the individual sprays. (9) Foliar thiamine spray mixed with acidic agricultural chemicals is desirable; alkaline chemicals decrease the thiamine stability remarkably. (10) The foliar thiamine spray at moderate concentration increases the sugar, starch, and thiamine contents of crops, and raises the C-N ratio of plants. (11) The thiamine sprayed on leaves is absorbed by plants in a short time, and is mostly accumulated in the parts of high metabolic activity. (12) A greater part of the thiamine absorbed by leaves is its free form, but a part is transformed to the ester form as time elapses. (13) Foliar thiamine spray at moderate concentration promotes the transpiration, the water absorption, the photosynthesis and the respiration of plants, and makes the values of respiratory quotient to approach to 1. 0. (14) Some thiamine deficiency in the actively metabolic portion of plants, especially in the early growing period, seems to be responsible for the smoothing effects of thiamine through sugar metabolism.Article信州大学農学部紀要 2(3): 191-278(1960)departmental bulletin pape

The postwar Orff music education was started by a Mozarteum of Seminar in Salzburg. As for "Musik fur Kinder" which is a teachers textbook of music education, the base music=Erementare musik that Orff assumed an idea in Gunter Schule becomes the basis before the war. Orff was composer originally, but I become Gunter and an met teacher in 1923, and the school is Gunter schule. Gunter schule the founded music, a dance, physical education as a school to educate. It is Erementare musik that became an idea of a school. Then where would the idea of Gunter Schule, the Erementare musik come from. It depends on inspiration from a dance of Wigman. It was dance of Wigman, but was completely different from a histric of then in her dance. Her dance was non-reason, folk customs dance, so-called ancient dance. Orff says her dance and meet, her dance the basics. It flutters, and education of Gunter Schule, music, a dance, physical education affect art of ancient Greece deeply. In this articl, I describe an origin and Orff music of the Erementare music that became an idea of Gunter Schule, a relation with ancient Greece art

Crystal structure, electrical properties, and mechanical response of (100)-/(001)-oriented epitaxial Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O 3-PbTiO3 films grown on (100)cSrRuO 3∥(100)SrTiO3 substrates by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition

Relaxor-type ferroelectric (1-x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O 3-xPbTiO3 (PMN-PT) films, 2-3 μm in thickness, with a PbTiO3 content (x) ranging from 0 to 1 were grown on (100) cSrRuO3∥(100)SrTiO3 substrates at 650°C by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The effects the x value had on the crystal structure, dielectric and ferroelectric properties, and mechanical response of these films were systematically investigated. Epitaxial growth having (100)/(001) orientation irrespective of x and the constituent phase change with x were ascertained from both x-ray diffraction reciprocal space mapping analysis and Raman spectroscopy. The constituent phase changed from a rhombohedral (pseudocubic) single phase, a mixture phase of rhombohedral (pseudocubic) and tetragonal phases, and a tetragonal single phase, with increasing x. The mixed phase region was found to exist at x=0.40-0.55, which was different from that reported for single crystals (x=0.31-0.35). The dependencies of relative dielectric constant and remanent polarization on x showed a similar trend in the case of a PMN-PT sintered body; however, the magnitudes of these values were relatively low. The effective longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient (d33,f) and the transverse coefficient (e31,f) of 100-120 pm/V and ∼-11.0 C/m2 were, respectively, calculated for a film with x=0.39, which corresponds to a larger x edge for the rhombohedral (pseudocubic) region following the engineered domain concept proposed for PMN-PT single crystals
