Field, screenhouse, and laboratory experiments were conducted to
study weed interference in rice grown on hydromorphic soils at the
International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) at Ibadan, Nigeria.
Rice and weeds emerged at the same time, 1 week after planting.
Weed dry weight was significantly reduced when the crop was...
Wheat endosperm morphogenesis was studied by light microscopy
during the entire growth period of anthesis to maturity. Four
developmental stages have been described in this thesis: (1) double
fertilization, (2) formation of the lower endosperm cells, (3)
termination of nuclear divisions, and (4) initiation of protein
bodies.
The first manuscript...
Effects of lactobacilli in enteric coated capsules
were studied in piglets (Chapter I). Lactobacillus
acidophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus isolated from a
commercial product were formulated in capsules, enteric
coated, and then given to both Escherichia coli-challenged
and unchallenged baby pigs. Decreased
incidence and severity of diarrhea, and decreased weight
deceleration...
Best available copy. In 1984, longstanding concerns about pollution in Yaquina Bay impelled the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to make a comprehensive sanitary survey of the Yaquina River, with particular emphasis on areas where oysters were grown. The report states that the oyster plots endured "sporadic poor water quality,"...
Measurable surface parameters which may be related to the response evoked upon contact with biofluids have been suggested to provide direction for characterization, prediction, and ultimate control of biofluid behavior at interfaces. With respect to fouling of heat exchange equipment by biofluids, such properties may be useful for the development...

The development of a novel high temperature space radiator is
described. A Rotating Bubble Membrane Radiator (RBMR) combines the
best features of heat pipes and droplet radiators while avoiding
their negative attributes. The RBMR offers light weight, self
deployment, ease of startup and its performance is less affected by
acceleration....
