The biosynthesis and metabolism of (-)-kaurene in cell-free extracts of immature pea seeds

Creator:: Coolbaugh, Ronald Charles, 1944-
Abstract:: Procedures were developed for assaying the biosynthesis of (-)- kaurene-¹⁴C and other intermediates in gibberellin (GA) synthesis from mevalonic acid-¹⁴C in cell-free enzyme extracts of immature pea (Pisum sativum L. cv. Alaska) seeds. This system was utilized to investigate three aspects of GA biosynthesis: (1) apparent capacities for (-)-kaurene biosynthesis...

Physiology of senescence of the shoot apex in Pisum sativum L.

Creator:: Ecklund, Paul Richard, 1941-
Abstract:: Shoot apex senescence is defined as the collective progressive and deteriorative processes which ultimately terminate the functional life of the shoot apex. Senescence of shoot apices of Pisum sativum L. 'Alaska' as measured by cessation of stem elongation was delayed by removal of flowers and by treatment with gibberellin A₃...

Aluminum toxicity in wheat (Triticum aestivum Vill., host)

Creator:: Kerridge, Peter Campbell
Abstract:: Wheat varieties of differential tolerance to Al were used in a series of nutrient solution experiments to study the inhibitory effects of Al on growth and nutrient uptake. The pH and the Al and P concentrations were rigorously maintained to prevent the confounding effects of Al and P precipitation and...

Petrogenesis of the Steens Basalt : Variation in Source Contributions and Effects of Crustal Passage During the Onset of Columbia River Flood Basalt Volcanism

Creator:: Moore, Nicole E.
Abstract:: Continental flood basalts represent short-lived but immense blasts of mafic magma to the continental crust. The youngest and smallest continental flood basalt worldwide, the Columbia River Basalt, initiated with the eruption of the most mafic member, the Steens Basalt (~16.9 Ma). The Steens Basalt is exposed in southeast Oregon, southwest...

Membrane receptors for steroid hormones : pursuing the identity of a membrane glucocorticoid receptor in an amphibian brain

Creator:: Evans, Simon J.
Abstract:: In addition to the well-characterized genomic mechanism of steroid action that uses intracellular receptors, steroid hormones also signal through nongenomic processes that use membrane receptors. A membrane receptor for corticosterone (CORT) has been described in brains of the roughskin newt (Taricha granulosa). This receptor is believed to be a G-protein...

Antimicrobial contaminant removal by multi-stage drinking water filtration

Creator:: Rooklidge, Stephen J.
Abstract:: The fate of antimicrobials entering the aquatic environment is an increasing concern for researchers and regulators, and recent research has focused on antimicrobial contamination from point sources, such as wastewater treatment facility outfalls. The terraccumulation of antimicrobials and mobility in diffuse pollution pathways should not be overlooked as a contributor...

High-performance data-parallel input/output

Creator:: Moore, Jason Andrew
Abstract:: Existing parallel file systems are proving inadequate in two important arenas: programmability and performance. Both of these inadequacies can largely be traced to the fact that nearly all parallel file systems evolved from Unix and rely on a Unix-oriented, single-stream, block-at-a-time approach to file I/O. This one-size-fits-all approach to parallel...

Toward the development of screening tests for heart attacks and back injuries in firefighters : a study to investigate back-specific fitness, perceived fitness and aerobic capacity in a firefighter population

Creator:: Moore, Karlie J.
Abstract:: Firefighting is a very hazardous profession. Firefighters experience an injury rate that is three times higher than other physically demanding professions and the death rate in the fire service is also much higher compared to typical. Throughout the literature, data suggest the physical nature of firefighting contributes to the high...

Manganese absorption by barley roots

Creator:: Maas, E. V. (Eugene Vernon), 1936-
Abstract:: An investigation of Mn uptake by five-day-old excised barley roots revealed that a metabolically-mediated process was involved. In short-term experiments, the rate of Mn absorption was comparable to that of the macronutrient cations. Like other metabolically absorbed cations, the Mn absorption rate was a direct function of the ambient concentration...
