Kuo-yü (in Wade-Giles) or Guoyu (in pinyin) (國語 ㄍㄨㄛ ㄩ;) (literally "national language") was adopted by Republic of China (on Taiwan) and hence as the official pronunciation of Chinese words.
Guoyu in the sense of national language was coined in Japan (kokugo in Japanese) and then was loaned into Chinese.
Some in Taiwan, especially proponents of Taiwan independence also object to the term guoyu to refer to Mandarin on the grounds the "nation" referred to in the name of the language is China and that Taiwan is or should be independent.

In 1989, the year of aphid outbreak, the average aphid number per plant was 97.4 on resistant varieties (Guoyu 98-4 and Guoyu 100-4) while 640.4 on susceptible varieties (Amsoy, Tiefemg 20 and Wenfeng 5) at the stage of flower bud differentiation on June 20,which was 6.6 times higher than on the resistant ones.
At present, agronomic characteristics of some identified resistant varieties, such as Guoyu 98-4 and Guoyu 100-4, are inferior and difficult to use directly since some bad characteristics may be obtained in the course of the resistance transfer.

 Just a Gwai Lo: Personal: Shuo Guoyu Ma?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Getting on the bus to go to work in the late morning, an elderly Chinese woman was getting on as well, so I let her go in before me. She asked the bus driver something in Chinese, because evidently he looked to her like he was Chinese himself.
After not understanding what she was saying, and assuming that she wanted to go to Chinatown, a white guy came up to the front of the bus and said to her "shuo guoyu ma?" The phrase means "do you speak Mandarin Chinese?" in Mandarin Chinese.
A couple of thoughts occur: 1) She didn't understand what "guoyu" was (depending on where they're from and how old they are, not all Mandarin-speaking Chinese people do, in my experience).

 Putonghua and Guoyu   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
One standard is based on the Beijing area pronunciation; the other is reflective of pronunciation in Taiwan.
In Taiwan the standard language is called guoyu.
While putonghua can mean specifically the Beijing standard and guoyu can likewise mean the Taiwan standard, either term can be safely used to refer to Modern Standard Chinese.
