Data were presented on epididymal spermatozoa from 29 inbred
and linecross bulls raised at Oregon State University in connection
with the Western Regional Beef Cattle Breeding Project, W-1. The
inbred bulls came from four inbred lines. Three of these inbred
lines were Herfords and the other line was Angus. The...
Studies were conducted from 1962 to 1966 to investigate the
effectiveness of several practices in manipulating medusahead
(Taeniatherum asperum (Sim. ) Nevski) infested and/or dominated
ecosystems by releasing competition in favor of perennial grasses.
Several herbicide treatments were evaluated for selective
control of medusahead and cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L. )...
A mooring system was designed and constructed to make possible
the installation and the recovery of racks of sample panels for
a study of deep-ocean wood-boring molluscs. Racks containing
pine, fir, oak, and cedar boards were exposed to borer attack at
six stations with depths of 50, 100, 150, 200,...
This investigation is concerned with the determination of the temperature-effective period (T.E.P.) for crossvein development at physiological temperatures using three isogenic crossveinlesslike (cvl) lines of Drosophila melanogaster.
The method used to determine T.E.P. relies on temperature differences in phenotypes and on a program of transfers from one temperature to another...
In this paper, the theory of metal-semiconductor contacts was
applied to metal contacts on gallium arsenide. A model was discussed
which proposed that the contact resistance was due to a highly
resistive region between the metal and the semiconductor. In order
to evaluate this resistance, a technique using a VHF...
A cell-free system for assessing the role of S-adenosyl-methionine
in the methylation of homocysteine deriving the methyl
group from serine has been developed. No role for S-adenosyl-methionine
could be shown in the in vitro reaction
The enzyme serine transhydroxymethylase has been studied in
crude and partially purified cell extracts. Evidence...
