The purpose of this study was to characterize glenohumeral joint laxity and
stiffness using instrumented arthrometry. To evaluate the validity of an instrumented
measurement system we compared cutaneous and bone-pinned measures of laxity and
stiffness that replicate previously reported in vivo methodology. Characterization of
capsular laxity was achieved through determination...
The effect of X-irradiation on DNA synthesis in larval salivary
glands of Drosophila hydei was studied using the technique of liquid
scintillation spectrometry and autoradiography. DNA synthesis in
salivary glands of synchronized larvae was measured at successive
stages of third instar development by in vitro uptake of ³H-thymidine
for a...
Benomyl-tolerant Botrytis cinerea was found in snap
bean fields throughout the Willamette Valley while no tolerant
isolates of Whetzelinia sclerotiorum were detected.
Thirty-five benomyl-tolerant isolates of B. cinerea had
slower radial growth rates than eighteen benomyl-sensitive
isolates. Sporulation of an aggressive tolerant isolate
was not stimulated when grown on benomyl-treated...
The semi-parametric approach to the analysis of proportional hazards survival data
is relatively new, having been initiated in 1972 by Sir David Cox, who restricted its use
to hypothesis tests and confidence intervals for fixed effects in a regression setting.
Practitioners have begun to diversify applications of this model, constructing...
Relative use by pronghorns (Antilocapra americana) of 16 range sites was studied during summer and fall of 1971 and 1972 on Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge, an area of high desert
rangeland in south central Oregon. A Relative Use Index was developed based upon 1533 observations of pronghorns located on...
Transferrin of Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus
hemionus columbianus) displayed two types of polymorphism. One
type involved differences in sialic acid content. The nature of the
other polymorphism is not known. A hypothesis for three codominant
alleles at a common locus was proposed and tested by using the
Hardy-Weinberg Principle. The...
The specific objectives of the study were to determine the
sociological and economic considerations of the private landowners
and managers in Grant County, Oregon regarding their tolerances
of mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus)and deer hunters on their properties,
determine the attitudes of hunters who hunted deer in Grant
County in 1973...
A study of the life history, population dynamics, and ecological relationships of the Columbian white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginiarius leucurus) was conducted on the
Washington mainland, Columbian White-tailed Deer National Wildlife Refuge during 1972-1973 to provide information for management of this endangered subspecies. A total of 18,077 observations of deer recorded...
