Grazing experiments were conducted in summer, autumn and winter
to assess the effects of stock density, grazing duration, pre-grazing
pasture mass and stock type on forage intake by sheep grazing at high
stock densities for short durations. In summer and winter, sheep were
stocked at 200 sheep/ha on 0.1 ha...
The principal objective of this analysis is the
development of a methodological approach that would
permit a more complete evaluation of the physical and
economic consequences of prohibited species by-catch
(PSC) losses, such as occur in the harvest of groundfish.
To achieve efficient management of the several marine

Nucleic acid extracted from dormant cane phloem of
grapevines affected by grapevine stem-pitting disease (SP)
formed a high molecular weight (MW) band on 1.0% and 0.8%
agarose gels. The band was unique to diseased vines. Other
bands appeared from samples of both diseased and virus-free
vines, but did not associate...
