An attempt was made to differentiate between runs of steelhead by comparing the reassociations of their DNA. Conditions for the reassociation were studied using E. coli DNA, and observations
were made spectrophotometrically. Of the five buffers examined, 1.0 molar sodium perchlorate plus one-hundredth molar tris-HCl, pH 7.1, at 60° or...
The genome composition and DNA base sequence homologies
of several diverse species of fish were examined. The fishes were
characterized from spectrophotometric studies of reassociation and
hybridization of their DNAs and from the thermal stabilities of hybrid
duplexes.
Spectrophotometric studies indicated that repeated sequences
comprise 35-40% of the genomes of...
A computationally efficient algorithm has been developed for
determining exact or approximate solutions for large scale generalized
fixed charge problems. This algorithm is based on a relaxation
of the Benders decomposition procedure, combined with a linear
mixed integer programming (MIP) algorithm specifically designed to
solve the problem associated with Benders...
The effects of disking, food plantings, and wheat plantings on a population of California quail (Lophortyx californicus) were studied from fall 1976 to spring 1978 on the E.E. Wilson Wildlife Area, Oregon. Twelve 16.2-ha study sites were established: 3 study sites for each treatment and 3 control sites. Disked areas,...
Purpose: This investigation was conducted to determine
whether or not teachers and students perceive the environmental press
of a secondary school differently, and whether or not teacher groups
and student groups vary in their perceptions.
Conceptual Framework: "Press" i s a construct which expresses
the assumption of elements in the...
If wind power is to become a viable energy alternative, a rapid and reliable cost effective methodology must be established, whereby large areas can be surveyed for windy sites and those sites can be evaluated. Based primarily on locating wind deformed vegetation, this paper establishes the feasibility of using air...
A radix 2n non-restoring division algorithm is described. The
algorithm is designed to be compatible with hardware multiprecision
multiplication methods currectly used in high speed digital computers.
This enables the use of the same hardware, with only changes in
control logic, to be used to implement both multiplication and
division....
Corn oil (CO) and Sterculic foetida oil (SFO) fed rats were
injected with [9, 10-methylene-¹⁴C]sterculic acid. Less than 1%
of the label was expired as carbon dioxide. The majority of the
label was excreted in the urine as short-chain dicarboxylic acids with
an intact cyclopropane ring. The major metabolites for...
