Testing main effects and interaction effects in factorial designs are basic content in statistics textbooks and widely used in various fields. In balanced designs there is general agreement on the appropriate main effect and interaction sums of squares and these are typically displayed in an analysis of variance (ANOVA). A...
Although the synthesis of DNA precursors is
closely coordinated with DNA replication, it is still
not clear whether deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates
(dNTPs) influence DNA replication independently of
their interactions with DNA polymerase catalytic sites.
In an effort to understand the extent to which rate and
fidelity of DNA replication are regulated...
The nature of inheritance and possible associations for traits
influencing earliness and grain yield were investigated using a four
parent diallel of winter and spring wheat cultivars.
More genetic variability was observed for the traits measured in
segregating populations resulting from crosses between winter and spring
type wheats in contrast...
Computer codes for versions of STORM, capable of calculating power distributions in a three-dimensional quarter-core of a boiling water reactor, were developed by using both a modified one-group and two-group diffusion theory model with several different power calculation schemes. Several numerical examples that demonstrate the high efficiency of the coarse-mesh...
The need to develop a shorter life cycle wheat cultivar which
would be more adapted to multiple cropping systems prompted this
study. Thus the following information was obtained.
Greatest variations in developmental patterns were found in the
stem elongation, booting, inflorescence emergence and anthesis for
five winter and five spring...
The effects of no-till versus conventional farming practices were evaluated on soft wheat functional and nutritional characteristics, including kernel physical properties, whole wheat composition, antioxidant activity, and end-product quality. Soft white winter wheat cultivar ORCF 102 was evaluated over a two-year period from three long-term replicated no-till versus conventional tillage...
The National Natural Landmarks (NNL) Program encourages the preservation of exceptional examples of the Nation’s biological and geological features. To qualify for NNL designation, a site must be one of the best examples of a geological or biological feature within a biophysiographic province. Zumwalt Prairie represents a perfect example of...
The National Natural Landmarks (NNL) Program encourages the preservation of exceptional examples of the Nation’s biological and geological features. To qualify for NNL designation, a site must be one of the best examples of a geological or biological feature within a biophysiographic province. Round Top Butte includes a basaltic butte...

The inhibition of S-aden.osylmethionine: Δ²⁴-sterol methyltransferase
(EC 2.1.1.41) activity by endogenous cellular components has
been studied in vitro. The principal inhibitors were Na⁺ and K⁺; Cs⁺,
NH₄⁺ and Li⁺ were also shown to inhibit the reaction. The inhibition
by potassium cation has been studied, and we have found that energy...
An enzyme system was prepared from Saccharomyces cerevisiae,
strain MCC, which carries out the transfer of the methyl group from
S-adenosylmethionine or methionine to the side chain of yeast sterols.
The cell-free system has been shown to be incapable of synthesizing
ergosterol but carries out the synthesis of two as...
The National Natural Landmarks (NNL) Program encourages the preservation of exceptional examples of the Nation’s biological and geological features. To qualify for NNL designation, a site must be one of the best examples of a geological or biological feature within a biophysiographic province. The Island is an isolated plateau located...
Least cost formulations for surimi seafood were studied
by linear programming (LP) and nonlinear programming (NLP).
The effects of water and starches on functional properties of
Alaska pollock and Pacific whiting surimi gels were
investigated. Six starches (modified potato starch, potato
starch, modified wheat starch, wheat starch, modified waxy corn...
Effects of moisture content, pH, and salt concentration on dynamic rheological properties and gel fracture quality of Pacific whiting surimi were investigated. Torsion tests showed that shear stress decreased rapidly and strain values decreased gradually as moisture concentration increased. As pH increased, fracture shear stress and strain values increased, whereas...

The unique capability of carbon-based ion-selective electrode (ISE) to perform highly sensitive anodic stripping voltammetry, while maintaining all the properties of an ISE, is demonstrated in terms of sensitivity, detection limit, response time and selectivity. Square wave anodic stripping voltammetry involves deposition and dissolution steps of metal ions, which means...
This research addresses fleet-sizing for reusable containers that are used for
protection, transportation, and storage of parts between a component plant and
assembly plant. These reusable containers are often expensive and occupy a
large amount of storage space when empty and full. Having a large container
fleet comes with higher...
Protein solubility of Pacific whiting muscle with isoelectric point at pH 5.5 was significantly affected by pH. The highest breaking force was measured from fish proteins treated at pH 11, while high deformation values were obtained at pH 2 and 11. Texture of gels made using the conventional method were...
