The probing behavior and feeding activity of green peach aphid, Myzus persicae
Sulzer, on Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. tenebrionis- transgenic potatoes, insecticide
treated potatoes, and host plants with different preference were electronically
monitored. I found that first, transgenic potatoes had no effect on green peach aphid
probing suggesting that transmission of...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the professional interaction
and interpersonal communication factors in the management of biomedical
instructional development projects which involved the use of electronic media.
Reference is made, repeatedly, in instructional development literature to
the need to include interpersonal communication skills in the education and...
A technique is developed and tested to analyze the interaction of flowing water,
bed topography, and bedload sediment transport in meandering channels where gravel
bars are removed. The method relates the local velocity distribution, bed shear stress and
sediment transport conditions to the local bed configuration in river bends before...
Reported here is an investigation to determine the in vitro and in vivo metabolism
of xanthohumol (XN). XN is the major prenylated flavonoid of the female
inflorescences (cones) of the hop plant (Humulus lupulus). It is also a constituent of
beer, the major dietary source of prenylated flavonoids. Recent studies...
This dissertation is situated as the third work in a series on academic women. In 1964,
Jessie Bernard published Academic Women, which provided a comprehensive
assessment of the status of women in academia. Two decades later, in 1987, Angela
Simeone offered insight into attempts to achieve equity for women in...
This research was designed to study the perinatal and
postweaning effects of the interaction between ethanol and low
dietary zinc during gestation and lactation in the rat.
Pregnant rats were fed liquid diets containing either 2 or 10
μg zinc/ml with or without 30% of kcal from ethanol throughout
gestation...
Species interactions and their effect on the use of habitat by benthic fishes were examined in a guild composed of Cottus perplexus, C. rhotheus, and C. beldingi in the Marys River above Philomath, Oregon, and in a constant environment provided by an artificial stream. In the Marys River system, the...
