  • Comparative gibberellin relationships in tall and dwarf peas (Pisum sativum L.)

    Creator:
    Anderson, James David
    Abstract:
    Experiments were performed to determine whether a direct correlation exists between the growth rates of tall and dwarf peas grown either in the light or in the dark and endogenous gibberellin (GA) content. Three separate but related experimental approaches were utilized: (1) the determination of possible qualitative and /or quantitative...

  • Physiology of ripening in pears

    Creator:
    Wang, Chien Yi
    Abstract:
    Investigations were conducted to study in detail some biochemical and physiological aspects of ripening in pears. Anjou pears picked at different degrees of maturity were treated with Ethrel (2-chloroethane phosphonic acid), 4000 ppm, and ethylene, 500 ppm, for different lengths of time. Respiration rate was measured twice daily and changes...

  • Propionate metabolism and its relationship to leghemoglobin biosynthesis in soybean nodules

    Creator:
    Jackson, Earl Kenneth
    Abstract:
    Experiments are reported which demonstrate that a cobalt deficiency in R. meliloti results in a decreased cytochrome content of bacterial cells. It is concluded that the effect of cobalt deficiency on cytochrome content of Rhizobium cells and on the leghemoglobin content of nodules possibly may be explained by an effect...

  • Some properties of ribonucleotide reductase in Rhizobium species

    Creator:
    Cowles, Joe Richard, 1941-
    Abstract:
    Ribonucleotide reductase from Rhizobium meliloti has been partially purified and characterized. The enzymatic reduction of ribonucleotides to deoxyribonucleotides is dependent upon B₁₂ coenzyme and dihydrolipoate. B₁₂ coenzyme was more effective than B₁₂ coenzyme analogues in the reductase reaction. The affinity of the R. meliloti reductase system for B₁₂ coenzyme was...

  • Correlations between horticultural characteristics and Fusarium root-rot resistance in Phaseolus vulgaris L.

    Creator:
    Wang, Theodora
    Abstract:
    To study the association between Fusarium root-rot resistance (Fusarium solani f. sp. phaseoli) and economically inportant characteristics of beans, 2259 lines each consisting of 30 plants were used. The lines were randomly selected for root-rot reaction, but were selected for differences in vigor and differences in plant and seed pigments,...
