This publication describes what home and community gardeners can do to monitor and responsibly manage spotted wing drosophila in their tree fruits and berries.
Neste estudo exploratório, de caráter qualitativo, objetivamos compreender a experiência de adolescentes em museus de ciência em visita fora do contexto escolar. Em particular, apresentamos a análise da visita de cinco grupos, entre 14 e 17 anos, de escolas públicas, à exposição “Passado e Presente - ciência, saúde e vida...
Courtship and copulation behaviors in Drosophila melanogaster males are regulated by sex-specific products from the gene fruitless (fru). Male-specific FRU proteins (FRU[superscript M]) are putative transcription factors of the BTB-ZnF family that likely act by controlling development and maintenance of the neural circuitry used during male sexual behavior. However, which...
This guide is developed for use by managers of commercial vineyards in Oregon. It provides recommendations for chemicals, formulations and usage rates of products that are intended to prevent, manage and control vineyard diseases, insects, mites and weeds. When considering a pesticide, evaluate its efficacy and its impact on beneficial...

The role of the high density lipoprotein (HDL) molecule is currently an area of great interest within the scientific community. Previously, mouse and human studies have demonstrated an inverse association between HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and cardiovascular disease. Recent clinical trials, which increased HDL-C, have failed to reduce the number...
Records of 889 litters of three populations of swine farrowed
between 1962 and 1973 were analyzed by least squares procedures.
Estimates were obtained for the effects of age and inbreeding of dam,
inbreeding of litter, inbreeding of dam's dam and inbreeding of the
sire of the litter on litter size...
The purpose of this work was to develop a dynamic partial order model of II electrolyte solutions which avoids inconsistencies present in the Debye-1-Iuckel and 1n related theories. It is shown that our results are consistent with activity coefficient data in aqueous electrolyte solutions. The main features of our work...
There is a shortage of qualified community college technical instructors in new and emerging technologies. The purpose of this study was to investigate the barriers that may affect the decision of semiconductor specialists to teach part-time at community colleges. The desired outcome is to enable community colleges to increase the...
Diatoms are single celled algae that form cell walls made primarily of silicon
dioxide (SO₂). The metabolic machinery that gives diatoms the ability to biogenically
form highly ordered solid silica from soluble silicon extracted from their external
environment provides a unique platform to create novel nanostructured materials
inexpensively and with...
The Oregon State University TRIGA® Reactor (OSTR) has a number of irradiation
facilities providing a wide range of neutron energies and fluxes. These facilities include a
pneumatic transfer tube, a rotating rack, a thermal column, four beam ports, in-core irradiation
tubes, a clyogenic gas transfer system and a large vault...
