Endogenous inhibitors of insect microsomal oxidases are a serious
problem in in-vitro studies of insecticide metabolism.
Their number,
chemical nature, modes of action, and their effectiveness as inhibitors
are unknown.
In the case of house flies, there may be as many as
four inhibitors.
The most important of these is...
The polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are known to be required
for larval growth and normal wing development in several
species of Lepidoptera but most of the basic information necessary
for a complete understanding of this nutritional phenomenon has not
been gathered. This includes the role of each of the essential...
The heart rate, oxygen consumption, survivorship, and 1-lactate
accumulation were determined in the intertidal limpets Collisella pelta
and Collisella digitalis in relation to laboratory desiccation at 15°C
or 30°C. Water loss was computed as a percentage of total initial body
water (wet weight - dry weight). Although water was lost...
Three genetically different dwarf cultivars of spring wheat were
evaluated as potential sources of short stature to use in a wheat improvement
program. The study involved a five parent diallel cross
which included a semidwarf, a standard height and three dwarf cultivars.
The genetic sources of dwarfism included a Norma...
