The influence of (2-chloroethyl)-trimethylammonium chloride on the ribonucletic acid content of wheat (Triticum aestivum) leaves

Creator:: Baldwin, Richard William, 1933-
Abstract:: A study was made on the effect of CCC (2-chloroethyl)-trimethyl-ammonium chloride), a plant growth retardant, on the RNA (ribonucleic acid) content of wheat plants, It was found that the RNA content of wheat leaves generally decreased with increasing levels of CCC up to 1x10⁻⁵M. Thereafter, the RNA content again increased...

Pectolytic enzyme production by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici

Creator:: Baldwin, Charles Harry
Abstract:: This investigation was undertaken to determine 1) the effects of various carbon sources in defined media on pectolytic enzyme production, 2) the effect of the incubation period on pectolytic enzyme activity, and 3) the development of improved methods for the purification and characterization of the polygalacturonases (PG) produced by Fusarium...

The nature of home economics curriculum in secondary schools

Creator:: Baldwin, Edith E.
Abstract:: As with other areas of the curriculum home economics tends to respond to the objectives of powerful interest groups rather than to the work of recognized scholars and the ideals of democracy. The philosophical orientation of this study is derived from the work of Jurgen Habermas, a dominant figure in...

Using parasite community data and population genetics for assessing Pacific sardine (Sardinops sagax) population structure along the west coast of North America

Creator:: Baldwin, Rebecca E. B.
Abstract:: Pacific sardines (Sardinops sagax) are an economically and ecologically important forage fish which transfer energy from planktonic primary producers and secondary consumers to upper trophic predators. Previous genetics studies of Pacific sardine suggested a panmictic population with a shallow genetic structure. However, more than one subpopulation within the Central California...

A study of judicious discipline : a constitutional perspective for school rules and decisions and its effect on the school-related attitudes of students

Creator:: Bolden, Robert A.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine if students' school-related attitudes are significantly affected by teacher classroom discipline management based upon concepts contained in Judicious Discipline: A Constitutional Perspective for School Rules (Gathercoal, 1986). The data relative to student school-related attitudes of elementary, middle, and high school students toward...

Development and Application of Tools for Genetic Analysis of Clonal Populations

Creator:: Kamvar, Zhian N.
Abstract:: Research on the population genetics of microbial organisms requires the use of specialized analyses designed for clonal organisms to avoid violating the assumptions of traditional population genetic models. The tools necessary for performing these analyses existed as a set of unrelated software with non-overlapping capabilities and did not cover all...

Studies on host range, fine structure, and nucleic acids of lactic streptococcus bacteriophages

Creator:: Nyiendo, Joanne Annette
Abstract:: The most frequent cause of insufficient acid production during fermentation of dairy products is bacteriophage infection of lactic starter cultures. Previously, efforts to minimize this problem have dealt primarily with the host range relationships of the viruses and susceptibility patterns of the lactic streptococci. This study was undertaken to characterize...

Henry Augustus Rowland and his electromagnetic researches

Creator:: Miller, John D. (John David)
Abstract:: This analysis concerns the life and scientific work of Henry Augustus Rowland (1848-1901), organizer and the first chairman of the physics department at The Johns Hopkins University in 1876. Special materials used in this research included three pieces of Rowland's experimental apparatus which are extant in the Smithsonian Institution Division...

Relationship between moral development and personality type of University undergraduates

Creator:: McMahon, Timothy R.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between moral development and year in school, gender, and personality type for university undergraduates. Moral development was measured by the Defining Issues Test (DIT) and personality was assessed using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). The sample consisted of 320 freshmen,...

Mechanisms that influence the posttranslational modification of the GluN2B subunit in the aged brain

Creator:: Zamzow, Daniel R.
Abstract:: Memory is essential to everyday life. As we age, deficits in memory become apparent. The toll of age-related cognitive impairment can be devastating to families and costly to society. The NMDA receptor is a molecule in the brain that is instrumental in the formation of memories. The receptor is particularly...
