Foraging and nesting behavior of the leaf-cutter bee Megachile rotundata (Fabricius)

Creator:

Osgood, Charles Edgar

Abstract:

The study provides the details of the ethology of Megachile rotundata (Fabricius), and presents preliminary observations on its foraging and nesting behavior. Development from prepupae to adults proceeds most rapidly at 32 degrees C., and is retarded when held at lower and higher temperatures. Male behavior is distinct from that...

Masters Thesis
Growth characteristics and metabolism of Beggiatoa

Creator:

Burton, Sheril Dale

Abstract:

The addition of catalase to culture medium increased the period of viability of Beggiatoa from one week to two months. Addition of catalase also produced a marked increase in cell yield and enzyme activity. The addition of cysteine or hydrogen sulfide to the growth medium or the use of semi-solid...

Effects of washing and aging on the metabolism of red beet root slices

Creator:

Kolattukudy, Pappachan Ettoop

Abstract:

The rate of the C¹⁴0₂ release from glucose, specifically labeled with C¹⁴ at 1, 2, 3+4, and positions, was used to study the relative participation of pathways of glucose catabolism in red beet slices. Evidence was obtained which indicated that in mature red beets glucose was catabolized mainly via glycolysis-tricarboxylic...
