Nuclear DNA flow cytometry was used to differentiate ploidy level and determine nuclear DNA content in Rubus. Nuclei suspensions were prepared from leaf discs of young leaves following published protocols with modifications that included: increasing the stain concentration, adding the stain after the RN ase treatment instead of adding it...
The objectives in this research were to assess whether Klebsiella planticola
SDF20 could survive in soil and result in ecological effects to soil foodweb
organisms and plant growth. Four experiments were conducted using soil
microcosms. Klebsiella planticola SDF20 has been genetically engineered to
produce ethanol from agricultural waste for use...
The pigments of blackberry fruit were investigated by analytical and preparative high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to characterize anthocyanin patterns in commercially important blackberry (Rubus eubatus) cultivars and selections. Five anthocyanin pigments were detected in Evergreen blackberry and they were identified as cyanidin-3-glucoside, cyanidin-3-rutinoside, pentosecyanidin derivative and two acylated cyanidin...
Species associations of fifteen major commercial groundfish species in the
northeastern Pacific ocean and their spatial and temporal characteristics were studied
using Oregon bottom trawl logbook data, 1987 to 1993. Screening procedures were used
to remove questionable data from the original logbook files, which resulted in the
exclusion of information...
Byproducts of bamboo processing, such as leaves and branches, may have potential as a livestock feedstuff. The objectives of this study were to evaluate seasonal changes in proximate composition of several bamboo species and reed canarygrass, and subsequently determine the digestibility of bamboo in ponies. Monthly samples of Phyllostachys bissetii,...
