Ammonia oxidizing bacteria, including Nitrosomonas europaea, are inhibited by aromatic hydrocarbons which can be found in wastewater treatment plants. In recent studies, changes have been observed in N. europaea cell size upon exposure to benzene, but not toluene. Additionally, NE 1545, a gene proposed to be involved in fatty acid...
The Environmental Conditioning System (ECS) was designed to evaluate the
water sensitivity of asphalt concrete mixtures. The ECS subjects asphalt concrete specimens to a series of conditioning cycles including water flow, elevated and/or lowered temperature, and repeated axial loading. The purpose of this research was to: (1) evaluate the ECS...
Background: Functional annotations of large plant genome projects mostly provide information on gene function
and gene families based on the presence of protein domains and gene homology, but not necessarily in
association with gene expression or metabolic and regulatory networks. These additional annotations are necessary
to understand the physiology, development...
The Chloroflexi CL500-11 clade contributes a large proportion of the bacterial biomass in the oxygenated hypolimnia of deep lakes worldwide, including the world's largest freshwater system, the Laurentian Great Lakes. Traits that allow CL500-11 to thrive and its biogeochemical role in these environments are currently unknown. Here, we found that...

El reino animal comprende muchos grupos distintos,
los cuales se conocen como filos. Cada filo se divide en
varias clases. Los insectos integran una de las muchas
clases del filo Arthropoda. Este nombre significa “pie
articulado” en el griego. La clase de los insectos se
llama Insecta o Hexapoda, lo...
Self-recording instruments were installed in the Drake Passage in February 1975. Approximately one-half were part of a short-term array. Data from these short-term instruments are described in Pillsbury, Bottero and Still (1976). This report is complementary to Report 65 and describes the data from the long-term array.
The long-term array...
This publication is offered as a reference to Integrated Pest Management (IPM) resources available to Oregon growers. It highlights university, federal, state, and private services and resources that provide support to growers in the implementation of IPM programs. The Guide consists of five sections: • An introduction to the National...
Weight-loss supplements typically fall into 1 of 4 categories depending on their hypothesized mechanism of action: products that block the absorption of fat or carbohydrate, stimulants that increase thermogenesis, products that change metabolism and improve body composition, and products that suppress appetite or give a sense of fullness. Each category...
The natural gas industry has become essential in many areas in the United States. Currently there is over 37.5 million miles of natural gas distribution lines. A large majority of these lines are polyethylene pipes. With such a large percentage of polyethylene lines in use gas companies are continually looking...
