The root-lesion nematode, Pratylenchus penetrans (Cobb 1917).
Filipjev and Shuurmans Stekhoven, 1941, is widely distributed throughout
Oregon and other temperate zones of the world. Economically
it is probably the most important plant parasitic nematode in Oregon
because of its abundance, wide host range of economic plants and
interactions with other...
An investigation was undertaken to determine whether
potassium is indeed necessary for the in vivo synthesis of a
specific protein. The effects of univalent cations on the
inductive formation of nitrate reductase and on the level of
activity of representative non-adaptive enzyme are presented.
Cultures of Neurospora crassa were grown...
It has been undertaken here to use the matrix method of
structural analysis for the determination of the stability of elastically
restrained, simple portal frames. This involves the formulation of
the stiffness matrix of the structure in terms of the axial force in the
members. The stability criterion, when applied...
The response of three-dimensional frames subjected to an arbitrary
dynamic force is studied. The method of mode superposition
is used to obtain the frame response solution. Two different modeling
systems are used to idealize the frame. These are the "discrete
mass system" and the "continuous mass system." For an example...
The effects of vertical ground motion are particularly significant
in the design of highway bridge girders. Conventional codes do
not recommend methods for solving the problem. The intent of this
work is to suggest an approach for such design.
A set of curves for velocity spectra which are the average...
