Vacuum ultraviolet absorption spectra of 13 model sugar compounds
were measured in the energy range of 50 to 80 kK. The model
sugars included three simple alcohols, four simple ethers, four cyclic
alcohol-ether compounds, and two dioxanes. All spectra show
transition bands in the energy region 50 to 65 kK....
Gas exchange, leaf area development, leaf anatomy and stomatal characteristics of four tall fescue selections differing in forage yield were examined to provide further insight into characteristics associated with yield differences of these selections. Winter-growing TFM 26 and TFM 16, the highest and lowest-yielding selections, respectively, and summer-growing selections TFK...
(Brandt) were surveyed for the presence of polyploid cells.
Large polyploid cells were found in the hepatic cecum, gut
and sheath of the testis.
The relative DNA content of the polyploid nuclei was
measured by means of two wavelength cytophotometry. Histograms
plotted from the data provide information on the level...
In this study patterns of shared family time in 210 two-parent,
two-child Oregon households were described. The relationship between
amounts of shared time and a number of family and environmental
characteristics was also researched.
The study used the Oregon data from a contributing project of
the Northeast Regional Research Project...
The etiologic agent of salmon poisoning disease was found to be
Neorickettsia helminthoeca, although a second organism, the Elokomin
fluke fever agent, may also be involved in other areas. Primary
cultures of dog leucocytes were found to support the in vitro cultivation
of Neorickettsia helminthoeca as were canine sarcoma 503...
The interrelationships between physical measurements, dietary
intake of specific nutrients, and plasma lipids were examined in 19
healthy elderly subjects. The mean blood pressures, relative weights,
and skinfold thicknesses were within normal ranges, although women
tended to be more overweight. Systolic pressure and relative weight
were associated with increased body...
