Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba) is a commercial oilseed annual crop
grown in Oregon. After extracting oil from seed, the remaining seed
meal is rich in the secondary plant metabolite glucolimnanthin, which
can be converted into pesticidal compounds such as 3-methoxybenzyl
isothiocyanate (ITC) and 3-methoxyphenylacetonitrile (nitrile) in the
presence of the enzyme...
Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba L.) is a herbaceous winter spring annual grown as a commercial oilseed crop. The meal remaining after oil extraction from the seed contains up to 4% of the glucosinolate glucolimnanthin. Degradation of glucolimnanthin yields toxic breakdown products, and therefore the meal may have potential in the management...
The management of fire-prone forests is one of the most controversial natural resource issues in the US today,
particularly in the west of the country. Although vegetation and wildlife in these forests are adapted to fire, the
historical range of fire frequency and severity was huge. When fire regimes are...
An economic cost analysis of 258 Forest Service developed recreation sites in Region One examined eleven different site types, including campgrounds, picnic grounds, boating and swimming sites, interpretive sites, and information sites. Costs were estimated for planning, facilities, and operation and maintenance. Averaging costs by category showed that, in general,...
Iran is among the pioneers in the farming of rainbow trout that is mostly up to 1 kg with a production of 173,000 tonnes in 2018, principally used for domestic consumption. Farmers use labour-intensive hand feeding and counting eggs by hand. Imported trout eggs are preferred to domestic eggs as...
Policy analysts designing programs to improve the
efficiency and expand the use of water in the irrigation of
farm lands often enlist benefit-cost analysis as a means of
assessing impacts and feasibility. While on-site comparisons
of costs and benefits are important factors in project
assessment, other dimensions such as risk,...
Changes in the structure of the U.S. agricultural
industry since World War II have transformed it into a
highly productive component of the domestic economy. But
these changes have not occurred without indirect costs. For
example, the reliance on agricultural chemicals has produced
environmental effects causing growing concern. In addition,...
Transcription factor (TF) genes were modified endogenously to include epitope tags for identification of TF protein binding sites by Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP), followed by high throughput sequencing. We used RNA-sequencing in carbon sources of sucrose, butyrate, and oleate in far-1, far-2, and a double far-1; far-2 mutant to find transcripts...
