The processes responsible for transporting and depositing thick
sections of coarse-grained terrigenous clastics on the abyssal floor
and for forming associated sedimentary structures are still conjectural.
Many workers attribute coarse deep-sea sediments and their
probable lithified equivalent, the graywackes of flysch deposits to
some type of density movement.

A saprozoic nematode, Diplogaster lheriteiri Maupas 1919,
was studied to determine its relationship to the plant pathogenic bacteria,
Agrobacterium tumefaciens (Smith and Townsend) Conn.,
Erwinia amylovora (Burrill) Winslow et al., Erwinia carotovora
(Jones) Holland, Pseudomonas phaseolicola (Burk. ) Dows.,
Xanthomonas campestris (Pam. ) Dows. and to a phage of A....
The karyotypes of five species of ranid frogs were determined
from metaphase plates of bone marrow cells. The colchicine, hypotonic-
citrate, blaze-dry technique was used to obtain the plates.
Morphometric datawere obtained from the karyotypes and compared
with other species of the genus Rana.
Like most other members of the...
Commerical preparations and published formulations using reagent chemicals for seawater substitutes were not biologically acceptable to Mytilus edulis embryos, in that calcification did not occur. When Leslie coarse hide salt was used as the source of NaCl for literature formulations, most formulas provided some success in the development, growth and...
Two experiments involving 33 Holstein cows were conducted
for the primary purpose of studying the effects of flumethasone (a
synthetic glucocorticoid) on milk and milk constituent yields. The
secondary purpose was to compare udder health, reproductive performance,
and body weight changes of cows on flumethasone therapy.
Nine Holstein cows were...
The objective of this study was to determine the relative speeds
of available medical x-ray films exposed directly to x-rays and exposed
in combination with various types of intensifying screens. The
information obtained from this sensitometric data was used to obtain
factors by which a radiographic exposure technique with one...
This thesis has four main results. First we find a reduction form
for symmetric matrices over fields of characteristic two. This result
parallels the diagonalization theorem for symmetric matrices over
fields of characteristic not two.
Secondly we reduce our reduction form to a canonical form in
perfect fields of characteristic...
