Water temperature influenced interactions between redside
shiners and juvenile steelhead trout (≥1+) in the field and the
laboratory. Distribution of the two species within various habitats
was determined in three streams with different water temperature
regimes. The range of habitats occupied by trout in allopatry at
cool temperatures and at...
The objectives of this study were (a) to measure the amount
of cross-pollination caused by three bee species at 10, 20 and 40
rods distance from a foreign pollen source, (b) to measure the effects
of bee species, planting pattern and season on broad sense heritability
estimates for seed yield...
Tall fescue often results in poor liveweight gains. This may be accounted for by variations in perloline content, nitrogen content, or digestibility of the plant. Two groups of tall fescue plants were examined for each of these traits. These groups consisted of (a) fifteen single-crosses of a six parent diallel...
An evaluation of fabric reinforcement of the roadway
structure is made. The study includes a parametric analy
sis using layered elastic theory and a series of large
scale model tests.
The parametric. study analyzes the stresses and
strains of roadway structures with a fabric layer between
tna surface layer and...
Seed yield in ryegrass (Lolium spp.) is the
product of the number of fertile tillers per unit area
and seed weight per spike at maturity. These
components of yield develop through a series of growth
stages beginning with tiller bud initiation and
finishing with seed filling. Environmental conditions
during plant...
