Phytophthora cactorum lacks sterol synthesis capability. Nevertheless,
it exhibits vegetative growth in the total absence of sterol.
Supplementation of the growth medium with sterol, however, resulted in
a three-fold increase in cell yield. This increase was shown by whole
cell and cell free experiments to be the consequence of altered...
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
This study developed a model which identified mathematical needs
in various vocational technical programs. This model provides a
method which can be used to develop an adequate mathematics curriculum
to support occupational offerings at community college/technical
institutes, and can also help high schools and the colleges/technical...
Contracting nucleolar vacuoles are a general and consistent
feature of somatic tobacco cells growing in microcultures. Nucleolar
vacuoles were studied in cells from callus tissues of two
single-cell clones, H-196 and H-239, of hybrid tobacco (Nicotiana
tabacum X N. glutinosa). Vacuoles periodically contracted either
completely or incompletely, apparently releasing a...
