The attachment of myristic acid to the N-terminal glycine residue of many
eukaryotic and viral proteins is often essential for the acquisition of the protein's
biological activity. Vaccinia virus (VV), the prototype member of the Poxviridae,
expresses several myristylated proteins during the course of infection. Only one of
these proteins,...
The “Cayuga syndrome” is a maternally transmitted, naturally occurring thiamine deficiency that causes 100% mortality of larval landlocked Atlantic salmon Salmo salar in several of New York's Finger Lakes, Results of multiyear studies to qualify and quantify the neurobehavioral and gross pathological signs of this condition are described, Affected sac...
We describe a disease syndrome that afflicts larval, landlocked Atlantic salmon Salmo salar from Cayuga Lake, one of central New York's Finger Lakes. Mortality associated with the “Cayuga syndrome” is 98–100%. Death usually occurs between 650 and 850 centigrade degree-days after fertilization, approximately 2–4 weeks before yolk resorption is complete....
Hedgerows, also known as shelterbelts or windbreaks, are rows of trees, shrubs, and low-growing plants that divide or border fields and/or suburban lots. In England, many farms are surrounded by ancient hedgerows that conserve soil and water, provide a home to wildlife, and serve as barriers. In the United States,...
This paper investigates the feasibility of compiling the functionality of a decision
theoretic problem solving engine into a set of rules or functionally similar construct.
The decision theoretic engine runs in exponential time, while the rule set runs in
linear time at worst. The main question that will determine the...
This publication, Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station Report 857, reports the results of the fifteenth international early maturing winter x spring wheat screening nursery. It is identified as volume 15(1). Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station Report 858 is a companion publication, designated as volume 15(2). It reports the results of the fifteenth...
