Fungal hyphae are among the most highly polarized cells. Hyphal polarized growth is supported by tip-directed transport of secretory vesicles, which accumulate temporarily in a stratified manner in an apical vesicle cluster, the Spitzenkörper. The exocyst complex is required for tethering of secretory vesicles to the apical plasma membrane. We...
The chloroacetanilide herbicide alachlor is the second most widely used herbicide
in the US, where it is used on major crops such as corn and soybean. Although alachlor is
mineralized slowly in soil, metabolites of alachlor have been found in soil indicating that
alachlor is subject to chemical or biological...
The War Production Board issued limitation order 85 in April 1942 in order to conserve fabric and manpower needed for the war effort. The L-85 order froze the silhouette so no major style changes in women's wear would occur during the war. It is clear that on the one hand...
The global terrestrial carbon sink offsets one-third of the world’s fossil fuel emissions, but the strength of this sink is highly sensitive to large-scale extreme events. In 2012, the contiguous United States experienced exceptionally warm temperatures and the most severe drought since the Dust Bowl era of the 1930s, resulting...

Accurately simulating gross primary productivity (GPP) in terrestrial ecosystem models is critical because errors in simulated GPP propagate through the model to introduce additional errors in simulated biomass and other fluxes. We evaluated simulated, daily average GPP from 26 models against estimated GPP at 39 eddy covariance flux tower sites...

Elie Wiesel’s Night has become a canonical work in the genre of Holocaust literature. This thesis examines the process by which Night achieved this status. An argument will be composed using, as evidence, analysis of Elie Wiesel’s life, the broad history of Holocaust literature, and the complexities surrounding Night’s publication...
Some of the problems concerning the present educational programs
which confront the institutions of higher education are, reviewed.
Resources allocation is at the root of the issue.
Budgeting orientations are presented with special emphasis on
Planning Programming Budgeting Systems. PPBS is still in its
developmental stage in the field of...
Some kinetics of the oxygen requirement of amine oxidases
have been investigated using bovine plasma monoamine oxidase (PAO)
and pea seedling diamine oxidase (DAO). A system is described for
studying enzyme reactions under controlled oxygen tension and in an
O₂-free N₂ atmosphere.
O₂ Km values were determined at two different...
Headwater streams in the Oregon Coastal Range are subject to drastic fluctuations in flow and temperature because of the changing seasonality of a Mediterranean climate. In response to these changes, stream fishes exhibit a variety of movement patterns. Coastal Cutthroat Trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii clarkii) have evolved an assortment of life...
