Relationship between pore size, particle size, aggregate size and water characteristics

Creator:: Wu, Laosheng
Abstract:: Soil pore size distribution and water characteristics are important for water storage, water movement, and soil-plant interaction studies. Laboratory determinations of water characteristics and pore size distribution are time consuming and costly. Investigators have proposed many models to predict them from routinely available data. Most of the models are related...

Phylogeny and zoogeography of glyptocephalines (Pisces: Pleuronectidae)

Creator:: Chiu, Tai-sheng
Abstract:: Hypotheses of phylogenetic and historical zoogeographic relationships of glyptocephalines (Glyptocephalus cynoglossus, G. zachirus, G. stelleri, Microstomus kitt, H. pacificus, H. achne, Embassichthys bathybius, and Tanakius kitaharae) were constructed based on comparative anatomy and external morphology. The phylogenetic approach was cladistic and character polarity was determined by using out-group comparison. One...

Food preferences of Thai adolescents and their mothers' attitudes and knowledge about foods and nutrition

Creator:: Sananmuang, Ratana
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between adolescents' food preferences and their mothers' attitudes and knowledge about foods and nutrition in Phitsanulok Province, Thailand. Subjects included 30 boys and 35 girls randomly selected from 11th grade classrooms at two high schools in Phitsanulok, and their mothers....

Acute and chronic toxicity studies with monochlorobenzene in rainbow trout

Creator:: Dalich, George M.
Abstract:: The toxicity of chlorobenzene (CB) was investigated in rainbow trout following acute ip administration (1. 0 ml/kg, 1:1 in corn oil) and chronic exposure (2. 1 ppm and 2. 9 ppm) via the water in a continuously flowing system for 15 and 30 days. In the acute study, overt toxicity...

Effects of harvest date on sweet corn maturity, sugar content and yield

Creator:: Wong, Yueh-Mei
Abstract:: Studies were conducted in 1976 and 1977 on the effects of harvest dates on maturity, yields and sugar content of four cultivars of sweet corn. The cultivars were 'Golden Cross Bantam', 'Jubilee', 'Rapidpak' and 'Tendertreat'. Moisture content of kernels ranged from 80 to 67 per cent for the six harvest...

Possible association of grain protein content, harvest index and biological yield in winter wheat populations

Creator:: Costa, Jose Maria
Abstract:: A negative relation between grain protein content and grain yield is frequently observed in wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell) i.e. as grain yield increases, grain protein decreases. It has been suggested that the inverse relation between grain yield and protein is in part the result of developing high yielding...

Experimental and mathematical procedures for the estimation of shelf-life : application to temperature-abused chilled seafood

Creator:: Almonacid-Merino, Sergio Felipe
Abstract:: The validation and potential use of mathematical models to estimate the shelf-life of refrigerated food exposed to temperature abuse and basing such estimations on microbial growth was analyzed. Combined heat transfer, microbial growth models, and non-parametric statistical procedures formed a computer-based predictive tool to assess shelf-life and estimate the accuracy...

Evaluation of alternate surfacing systems for temporary and intermittent use roads

Creator:: Takallou, Mojtaba B.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to provide the USDA-Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and other agencies or industries that may deal with temporary and intermittent use roads with the necessary background information for the identification, economic evaluation, and selection of the alternate surfacing systems and to determine...

Fish oral antigen delivery system development and optimization

Creator:: Zhang, Jia Ai (Allen)
Abstract:: Oral administration is the most practical way of vaccination of fish. It has advantages over intraperitoneal injection and immersion methods that include no stressful handling, no interference with routine fish husbandry and antigens can be delivered to the fish in their feed. An oral antigen delivery system was developed for...
