The effects of light incident on leafy cuttings is
quite complex because' light influences several factors
which may affect root formation. One effect of light is
to influence the carbohydrate status of the cutting by
influencing photosynthesis. The role of current photosynthate
in the rooting of leafy cuttings is uncertain....
Adventitious root formation can be inhibited in stem cuttings
of Pisum sativum L. (pea), an easy-to-root species, if the apical
and lateral buds are removed. Application of exogenous auxin to
the apical stump can replace the rooting stimulus produced by the
buds. Root number was reduced by 50 to 100%...
Many investigators have suggested that current photosynthate
supply can limit adventitious root formation on leafy cuttings.
Accordingly, studies were undertaken to determine the effects of
altering photosynthesis and carbohydrate levels on adventitious root
formation by leafy cuttings of a number of different species.
Pea cuttings rooted at high CO₂ (1800...
This paper discusses research concerning redware vessel sherds found in an archaeological excavation at Oregon's historic Champoeg State Park, and comparative artifacts from four known Oregon and Washington late nineteenth pottery production sites. Visual and Instrumental Nuclear Activation Analysis comparison studies were conducted on samples from each site. The New...
This study will show that polygamy is not a religious
freedom protected under the U.S. Constitution, but a power
system in which men use economic, political, social and
physical force to control the behavior of others. This
thesis will use a feminist perspective theory to provide a
theoretical outline for...
Three highly purified forms of cytochrome P-450 (P-450a, P-450b, P-450c) from Aroclor 1254-induced rat hepatic microsomes catalyzed the monooxygenation of 1-(2- chloroethyl)-3-(trans-4-methylcyclohexyl)-1-nitrosourea (MeCCNU) and 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-(cyclohexyl)-1-nitrosourea (CCNU) in the presence of purified NADPH cytochrome P-450 reductase, NADPH and oxygen. Cytochrome P -450- dependent monooxygenation of CCNU gave six alicyclic hydroxylation products...
The ability for individual cells and multicellular networks to process information contained in perceived stimuli is of vital importance to their proper functioning and ultimately their cellular fate. The primary mechanism employed by cells to this end is the use of biochemical signaling in which a series of molecular events...
