A group of trout that reside in streams of the desiccating lake
basins of southeastern Oregon differ markedly from other known
Salmo. Known commonly as the red-band trout, this fish was subjected
to chromosome analysis for comparison with other species of
western North American Salmo. The karyotype of the red-banded...

L. C. Dunn (1893-1974) spent most of his scientific career conducting research in
developmental genetics as a member of the Zoology Department at Columbia
University in the City of New York. He had an accomplished scientific career
researching mutations in mice, which earned him respect from other geneticists and
scientists....
Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) and yellow starthistle (Centaurea
soistitialis L.) have invaded over 3 million ha of grasslands in the western U.S.
Future management will require an understanding of the conditions,
mechanisms, and processes which control species dominance, community
dynamics, and desirable plant establishment in these alien dominated annual
rangelands....
The objectives of this study were (a) to measure the amount
of cross-pollination caused by three bee species at 10, 20 and 40
rods distance from a foreign pollen source, (b) to measure the effects
of bee species, planting pattern and season on broad sense heritability
estimates for seed yield...
Delta-sigma modulators are currently a very popular technique for making high-resolution
analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters. These oversampled data
converters have several advantages over conventional Nyquist-rate converters, including
an insensitivity to many analog component imperfections, a simpler antialiasing filter and
reduced accuracy requirements in the sample and hold. Though the initial...
