Chemically defined liquid media were devised which supported
excellent growth of Taphrina cerasi and T. deformans. When grown
in fermentation culture vessels, T. cerasi and T. deformans released
cytokinins into the liquid media. The presence of these cell division
factors was demonstrated with the soybean tissue assay which is
specific...
One hundred and fifty-one weanling rats of both sexes were fed
control diets or diets containing 160 ppm diethylnitrosamine (DEN) or
150 ppm N-2-fluorenyl-acetamide (FAA). The carcinogen level was
calculated so that the LD₅₀ should be achieved at about 17 weeks.
Each carcinogen treatment was incorporated with three different diet...
Studies were conducted with Indian River "Hybro" broiler chicks
and Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station dwarf and normal White
Leghorn hens to improve the utilization of white western wheat. Chick
studies were primarily concerned with characterizing the growth
inducing properties of an antibiotic fermentation residue (Vigofac)
which had shown a greater...
This study is an economic analysis of enrollment demand for
graduate education at Oregon State University as well as in the United
States. For the analysis of Oregon State University data on new
graduate enrollment, data were obtained for 27 academic departments
with 10 observations per department. The most important...
The passing of the 21st Amendment to the United States Constitution has given to individual states the authority to regulate the sale, distribution and taxation of domestically produced wines, and made the wine trade potentially significant as a means of augmenting state revenues. In the state of Oregon, table wines...
The fundamental objective of this analysis was to isolate and
identify the factors governing the demand for domestically produced
rainbow trout in a representative west coast market, and assess the
impact on that demand, if any, of the introduction of pansize salmon.
The approach taken in this market demand study...
The ex-vessel coho salmon market has been paid scant attention
in the study of the salmon resources. This study is an attempt to
advance an understanding of the variations of ex-vessel prices and
landings during the coho season as well as between the various coastal
ports where the fish is...
The general objective of this study is to analyze the production
and the consumption of food in Korea for the years 1955 through 1969
and to project them for the years 1970 through 1980. This study has
the following purposes;
(1) To examine the trend in food production and yield....
Several studies were conducted to determine the feasibility of
using terbacil (3-tert-butyl-5-chloro-6-methyluracil) postemergence
to weeds and peppermint (Mentha piperita L.). Three nonionic surfactants,
four nonphytotoxic oils, and a liquid fertilizer were each
combined with 0.5 lb ai/A terbacil in 35 gallons of water per acre.
Weed species tested include: redroot...
Studies were conducted in 1969 and 1970 to evaluate the
effectiveness of an experimental herbicide, SD 30053 (alanine,
N-benzoyl-N-(3, 4-dichlorophenyl)-, ethyl ester), for wild oat
(Avena fatua L.) control in winter cereals.
The 1969 field studies showed that postemergence applications
of SD 30053 were effective in controlling wild oats. Wild...

Essential to the testing of propositions in economic theory is the estimation of the parameters involved in relationships among economic variables. Probably the most widely used method of estimation is ordinary least squares (OLS). However, severe multicollinearity or near linear
dependence of the explanatory variables can cause the OLS estimates...
The report begins with a brief discussion of certain aspects of the production and consumption of Pacific Coast salmon. This is followed by a description of some structural characteristics of the market for canned salmon. The next section of the report reviews some of the earlier work on demand for...
