Le jeune Binky Brown, de mère catholique et de père juif, vit une puberté difficile dans l’Amérique des années 1950 ; son éducation catholique rigide favorisant culpabilité et refoulement. Les rituels obsessionnels destinés à prévenir l’angoisse prennent possession de son existence entière, le plongeant au bord de la folie. Extrêmement drôle et résolument placé sous le signe de la satire, le récit peut se lire comme la critique d’une éducation dominée par une religion étroite et tatillonne, ou comme le journal de la naissance d’un trouble obsessionnel compulsif (TOC). Mais on peut aussi apprécier le récit pour sa bizarrerie, le jeune Binky « menaçant » les statues de la Sainte Vierge avec les rayons invisibles qu’il projette. Selon Art Spiegelman, Maus n’aurait pas vu le jour sans cet ouvrage pionnier de l’autobiographie dessinée que constitue Binky Brown.

Heat and drought stress are two of the most significant abiotic stresses limiting wheat production in the Great Plains and worldwide. Introgression of novel tolerance genes from wild relatives is a strategy which presents promise. This study examined both heat and drought tolerance from the tetraploid species Aegilops geniculata (U[superscript g]U[superscript g]M[superscript g]M[superscript g]). Additional screening for heat tolerance was conducted with the US genome species Aegilops peregrina (Hack) and Aegilops kotschyi (Boiss). A comprehensive screening system for drought tolerance was also constructed to evaluate wheat and its wild relatives. Previous reports suggested that Ae. geniculata accession TA2899 was moderately tolerant to heat stress. It had also previously been used to develop a full set of wheat-Ae. geniculata chromosome addition lines in a Chinese Spring background. To identify the chromosome(s) carrying the heat tolerance, all addition lines, as well as wheat check genotypes, were screened for post-anthesis heat tolerance in two growth chamber experiments. No chromosome addition lines were significantly different (p
