This symposium consists of presentations and discussions looking to the future of natural resources distance learning concepts. Key issues that will be discussed include: faculty development, technology roles - from remote imaging transmitted to the classroom to iPod lecture series and field assignments, credit transfer among Consortium members, faculty recruitment,...
The Baculoviridae comprise a diverse group of occluded DNA viruses that contain large double-stranded DNA genomes of 80 - 180 kb and may encode up to 180 gene products. To understand how baculoviruses replicate and process their genomes and the gene products that are involved in these events, a series...
The genome of the multicapsid nuclear polyhedrosis virus of
Orgyia pseudotsugata (OpMNPV) was mapped by examining overlapping
Hindlll fragments from cosmid clones which had been constructed
from partial Hindlll digests of viral DNA. Five OpMNPV cosmid
clones containing fragments encompassing the entire OpMNPV genome
were hybridized to blots of DNA...
Regulation of expression of three genes in the polyhedron
envelope protein (PEP) gene region of the Orgyia pseudotsugata
multinucleocapsid nuclear polyhedrosis virus (OpMNPV) was
examined. These genes include open reading frame (ORF) 1 (encoding
p21), ORF 2 (encoding gp16), and ORF 3 (encoding the polyhedron
envelope protein). The effect of...
Lepidopteran nucleopolyhedroviruses are members of the Baculoviridae and have been categorized as having two morphotypes of occluded virions: multiple nucleocapsids or single nucleocapsids within the virion envelope. Although it is a definitive characteristic of specific viruses, it appears to lack a defined genetic basis and is independent of virus phylogeny....
From May through November 1963, a mosquito survey was
made in the city of Corvallis, Oregon. The information
obtained dealt with the species of mosquitoes found,
their seasonal occurrence and the location and nature of
their larval habitats. A quantitative and qualitative
analysis of larval and adult mosquito collections by...
