Data from 186 mountain cottontail rabbits (Sylvilaus nuttallii) captured 455 times by livetrapping and from 46 rabbits collected by shooting were evaluated to determine monthly densities, survival rates, extent of movements, dispersion in relation to habitat types, and criteria for determining ages of mountain cottontails. Estimates of density computed for...
The purpose of this study was to present the new women's
studies program for the community college. The study advocated
consciousness raising for females at all levels of public instruction,
but this paper was limited to the community college. The program
outlined would seek to help women to assume a...
Temporal changes in gene frequencies and genotype frequencies,
monthly densities, survival rates, growth rates, trap susceptibility
and home ranges were evaluated from 291 Nuttall's cottontails
(Sylvilagus nuttallii) captured 950 times by livetrapping and 53 cottontails
collected by shooting. Electrophoretic analyses of sera revealed
protein polymorphism at the transferrin locus in...
The Farm Enterprise Committee of the Confederated Tribes of
the Umatilla Indian Reservation requested that an evaluation be made
of the Reservation land resource for the purpose of acquisition by the
Tribe as a part of a study of the feasibility of an expanded farm
enterprise. The Committee's primary goal...
The two major purposes of this study were: (1) to test the
assumption that the IT Scale for Children (standard-ITSC) can be used
as a measure of both appropriate sex role discrimination and sex role
preference with preschool aged children, and (2) to extend previous
studies in these areas by...
The cyclopropene fatty acids, sterculic and malvalic, occur
naturally in a major food lipid, cottonseed oil, and have been implicated
in several physiological disorders. Rainbow trout in this
study were fed semipurified diets containing 200 or 300 ppm methyl
sterculate, and the effects on hepatic lipid and glycogen levels,
lipid...
Adaptive immune capabilities of the Urochordate S. montereyensis
were studied. Animals repeatedly injected with bacteria were bled and
the following properties were measured in vitro: agglutinin, bactericidin,
bacteria-cell association. Both Gram (+) and Gram (-) bacteria
were isolated from the gut of S. montereyensis and used as antigens at
10⁸...
The most frequent cause of insufficient acid production during
fermentation of dairy products is bacteriophage infection of lactic
starter cultures. Previously, efforts to minimize this problem have
dealt primarily with the host range relationships of the viruses and
susceptibility patterns of the lactic streptococci. This study was
undertaken to characterize...
