An exploratory study of 48-hour Pacific oyster embryo
bioassays employing spent sulfite liquor (SSL) in test
concentrations ranging from 10 to 45 ppm was made at two
incubation temperatures, 20° and 24° C. Fourteen separate
bioassays, each employing embryos originating from three to
four different parentages, were conducted at the...
Attempts were made to rear Crambus topiarius Zeller,
Euchromius ocellus (Haworth), Crambus bonifatellus (Hulst) and
Crambus trisectus (Walker) on non-aseptic meridic diets containing
wheat germ or pinto beans as basic constituents. Various methods
of diet presentation and types of rearing containers were used. Shell
vials and plastic cups used as...
