The etiologic agent of salmon poisoning disease was found to be
Neorickettsia helminthoeca, although a second organism, the Elokomin
fluke fever agent, may also be involved in other areas. Primary
cultures of dog leucocytes were found to support the in vitro cultivation
of Neorickettsia helminthoeca as were canine sarcoma 503...
Laboratory experiments were used to investigate the mechanism
of plant response to water stress by determining the sensitivity of leaf
elongation, photosynthesis and transpiration in young corn plants to a
decrease in leaf water potential.
In initial experiments, 9 day old corn plants were grown at soil
water potentials of...
In order to determine the total number of cytochrome P-450 isozymes
present in a given species following various treatments, mature
male rats (Sprague-Dawley) were injected intraperitoneally with the
classic mixed-function oxidase inducers phenobarbital (PB), pregnenolone-
16a-carbonitrile (PCN), 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC), or the appropriate
control vehicle.
Hepatic microsomes were solubilized and P-450...
Seventeen populations of Gila Baird and Girard are identified from the Alvord Basin of southeastern Oregon and northwestern Nevada. Gila in the Alvord Basin occupy a wide range of habitats, including warm springs, cool springs, creeks, reservoirs, and a thermal lake. These populations became isolated in remnant habitats when waters...
