Preliminary Reliability and Repeatability of the Brazilian Version of the Revised Knox Preschool Play Scale

The aim of this study was to create an adaptation of the Revised Knox Preschool Play Scale (RKPPS) for the Brazilian population, as well as to apply the instrument with statistical analysis to verify the preliminary intra-rater and inter-rater reliability and repeatability of the instrument. The instructions presented by Beaton et al. regarding adaptation of instruments were followed to perform a cross-cultural adaptation of the RKPPS. A preliminary test of the Portuguese version was performed on 18 children with no motor, cognitive or sensory impairment. The video recordings of this administration were analysed on two separate occasions by two examiners within a 5-month interval, using the scores suggested by Pfeifer. The Spearman`s test was used in the statistical analysis of the obtained data. The author of the RKPPS agreed with the small necessary cultural adaptations. The Spearman test revealed a high correlation coefficient and good significance levels for both intra- and inter-raters values. This study demonstrated the reliability and repeatability of the Brazilian version of the RKPPS. This is a preliminary study and further studies are needed in order to validate the scale to be administered in the Brazilian population. Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Knox-Wise Family Papers - Accession 591

The Knox-Wise Family Papers includes a land grant issued to John Knox in 1768; diaries written by Dr. John Knox [1792-1859] covering the 1840s and 1850s; James N. Knox [1806-1880] covering 1859-1880; and William D. Knox [1847-1928] covering 1869-1928; indentures, deeds, receipts, court summonses and other papers of Hugh Knox [1757-1821], sheriff and justice of the peace in Chester County, South Carolina (ca. 1780s and 1790s); correspondence of James N. Knox, correspondence, and other professional papers of Dr. John Knox; correspondence, and other papers of William D. Knox, Superintendent of Education in Chester County from 1896-1928. Papers of various other members of the Knox and Wise families including Hugh Boyd Knox [1814-1886], Robert Knox [1796-1879], Sally Knox Wallace [1803-1901], Alexander Walker Wise, and Emmie R. Knox [1885-1969]; family histories of the Knox, Wise, Dunlap, Gaston, and Wilks families; church histories, photographs, and newspaper clippings. Also included are three published volumes of the United Confederate Veterans Minutes of the 21st (1911) and 25th (1915) Annual Meeting and Reunion; and the minutes of the annual reunion of the South Carolina Division of the United Confederate Veterans (1921-1927).

Funktionelle Untersuchungen von FLORICAULA und KNOX-Genen in Eschscholzia californica Cham.

FLORICAULA (FLO) und KNOTTED1-like Homöobox (KNOX)-Gene übernehmen neben ihren konservierten Funktionen in der Achsenentwicklung in verschiedenen Eudikotylen eine Funktion in der Fiederblattentwicklung. Zur Klärung der Frage nach dem ursprünglichen Regulationsweg der Fiederblattentwicklung in Hinblick auf FLO und KNOX-Gene innerhalb der Eudikotylen wurde hier die Bedeutung dieser Gene für die Fiederblattentwicklung von Eschscholzia californica als Modell für die Ranunculales, die Schwestergruppe aller anderen Eudikotylen untersucht. Es wurde ein Protokoll zur Erzeugung von somatischen Embryonen aus unreifen Samen entwickelt. Wege zur Herstellung von Mutanten durch Agrobacterium-vermittelte Transformation werden vorgeschlagen. Die Bedeutung von Auxin für die Blattentwicklung und die Untersuchung der Interaktion von ESCHSCHOLZIA CALIFORNICA FLORICAULA (EcFLO) und des KNOX- Gens ESCHSCHOLZIA CALIFORNICA SHOOT MERISTEMLESS (EcSTM) mit Auxin wurde durch Hemmung des Auxintransports untersucht. Trotz gravierender Störungen in der Blattpositionierung und -morphologie konnten Expressionsänderungen beider Gene nicht nachgewiesen werden. Ein Funktionsverlust von EcFLO und KNOX-Genen in E. californica wurden mittels Virus induziertem Gen Silencing (VIGS) erzeugt. VIGS von EcFLO rief keinen Phänotypen hervor. VIGS des KNOX-Gens EcSTM erzeugte dagegen in einigen Pflanzen eine Reduktion der Fiederzahl. Auch molekularbiologisch konnte das Silencing von EcSTM, nicht aber das Silencing von EcFLO nachgewiesen werden. Die Ergebnisse belegen die Notwendigkeit des ungestörten Auxintransports für die Blattentwicklung von E. californica und machen die Beteiligung des KNOX-Gens EcSTM an der Blattentwicklung wahrscheinlich. Die Beteiligung von EcFLO an der Fiederbildung konnte nicht nachgewiesen werden.
