opinions of community college personnel toward faculty involvement
in policy formulation.
Procedures
The statistical and subjective data for this study were obtained
from two major sources. (1) A statistical questionnaire was

BACKGROUND: Circadian clocks provide an adaptive advantage through anticipation of daily and seasonal environmental
changes. In plants, the central clock oscillator is regulated by several interlocking feedback loops. It was shown that a
substantial proportion of the Arabidopsis genome cycles with phases of peak expression covering the entire day.
Synchronized...

Background: DNA cytosine methylation is an epigenetic modification that has been implicated in many biological processes. However, large-scale epigenomic studies have been applied to very few plant species, and variability in methylation among specialized tissues and its relationship to gene expression is poorly understood.
Results: We surveyed DNA methylation from...

This research design was based upon the mutual relevance
between the fields of education and anthropology to cause cognitive
cultural awareness by the teachers of adults as well as visibility
within the Mexican American ethnic group.
Specifically the purpose of this study was twofold:. (1) to
determine whether the adult...
