The effect of surface type on plantar pressure distribution and running kinematics

Creator:: Killgore, Garry L.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to examine pressure at five selected sites on the plantar surface of the foot and adaptations in running kinematics among fourteen male varsity collegiate distance runners on five different surfaces--asphalt, cinders, concrete, grass, and tartan. Pressure data were collected with an Electrodynogram system (EDG)...

Evaluation of hill plots and near infrared reflectance techniques as breeding tools in spring malting barley

Creator:: Tragoonrung, Somvong
Abstract:: Hill plots and near infrared reflectance (NIR) spectroscopy were investigated as breeding tools to facilitate doubled haploid recurrent selection for malting quality characters in spring barley. Main objectives of this research were to i) compare hill and row plot expression of agronomic and malting quality traits in an array of...

Biographical variables and descriptive factors of arrest circumstance which differentiate drinking drivers grouped by total number of drinking and driving offenses

Creator:: Beerman, Kathy A.
Abstract:: Drunk driving continues to be a national, state, and local problem in spite of recent changes in laws governing drinking and driving. Driving under the influence of intoxicants (DDII) has been judged to be responsible for approximately one-half of all traffic related deaths nationally, killing 25,000 Americans and injuring 700,000...

Laboratory methods for wheat variety identification

Creator:: Ait Amer Meziane, Aomar
Abstract:: There is an increasing need for development of laboratory identification procedures for purposes of plant variety protection, seed certification, quality control and consumer protection. In the past there were fewer commercial varieties and field testing methods based on morphological differences were used satisfactorily. These tests require several months to complete...

Annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.) control with ethofumesate during turfgrass establishment

Creator:: Wieneche, David L.
Abstract:: Temperate climates are particularly conducive to growth of annual bluegrass which readily invades and dominates most cool-season turfgrasses. Ethofumesate (2-ethoxy-2,3-dihydro-3,3-dimethyl-5-benzofuranyl methanesulfonate) is one herbicide available which will selectively control annual bluegrass. The primary objectives of this research were to determine optimum application rates and timing of ethofumesate for control of...

SDS-PAGE of seed proteins for identification of varieties and species of ryegrass (Lolium spp.)

Creator:: Ferguson, Janet M.
Abstract:: The number of varieties of ryegrass (Lolium spp.) has increased greatly in recent years. An accurate and rapid laboratory technique to identify these varieties would benefit the consumer as well as protect an organization's Plant Variety Protection rights. There is also a need for a technique to complement the seedling...

Comparison between wood fiber pellets and wood shavings as broiler litter

Creator:: Modhish, Abdulmalek M.
Abstract:: Physical and chemical properties of wood (W) fiber (F) pellets (P) and wood (W) shavings(S) were determined in the laboratory prior to their use. Laboratory results showed that WS were superior to WFP except for moisture holding capacity on volume basis which is one of the most essential properties of...
