Site 35JA42 represents the first protohistoric village
complex excavated in Southwest Oregon. Analyses of animal
bones recovered from the site offer the first significant
insights into human subsistence behaviors in this region.
Although the faunal assemblage is extremely fragmented,
detailed zooarchaeological analysis indicates that deer were
the primary meat resource...
Designing A Citizen Involvement Program presents a model and supportive materials that can be used to design and implement a program for involving citizens in decision-making that concerns significant environmental issues. These actions might be large-scale construction projects, such as building a dam, an electric power plant, or a nuclear...
A partial cystatin cDNA from rainbow trout was
generated by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction
with two degenerate primers. The partial cystatin PCR
product was 168 bp and used to screen trout liver λgt 11
cDNA library. Four positive clones were isolated and
designated as cstl, cst2, cst3 and cst4....
Serum-free mouse embryo (SFME) cells, which were derived
from 16-day-old Balb/c mouse embryo brain, grow in absence of
serum without losing genomic normality or proliferative
potential, and require epidermal growth factor (EGF) for
normal growth. EGF is a well studied mitogen that binds to a
specific receptor on the cell...
Pinot noir and Chardonnay are the two main winegrape varieties in Oregon. In 1997, they comprised approximately 58% of the Oregon winegrape acreage, and 60% of the total production for a value of $14,171,000 (66% of total) (1). Internationally, clonal selection of Pinot noir and Chardonnay have made available, for...
Rainbow trout cystatin C cDNA has been isolated from
trout liver. The full-length cystatin cDNA (674 bp)
included the 5'untranslated region and the polyadenylation
signal sequence AATAAA in the 3' region. Translation of
the cDNA defines 132 amino acid residues. Comparison of
the amino acid sequence with those of family...
