This study's purpose was to provide data on major
inhibitory factors experienced by a third of Oregon high
school English teachers in areas of: attitudes, behaviors,
and physical and emotional effects of theme assessment.
Methods employed two analyses: (1) statistical testing
of the independent variable of teaching experience (1 to...
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is an enveloped, single-stranded positive-sense RNA virus. The BVDV genome is about 12.5 kb long and consists of a single open reading frame (ORF) flanked by untranslated regions at the 5' and 3' ends (5'-UTR and 3'- UTR, respectively). To investigate the role of cis-sequences...
The viral family Herpesviridae consists of large double stranded DNA viruses including eight species that infect humans with varying pathology from benign rashes to cancerous cell transformation. From three subfamilies, alpha-, beta- and gammaherpes, the alphaherpes contains the genera iltovirus, mardivirus, varicellovirus and simplex, two of which, the human simplex...
Cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3), commonly known as koi herpesvirus (KHV), is a member of the Alloherpesviridae and is a deadly pathogen for koi and common carp, Cyprinus carpio. It causes severe gill necrosis and nephritis, dermal ulceration and hemorrhage, and mass mortality of up to 100% of affected fish. Fish...
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...
This paper conducts the first empirical investigation of common-pool
resource users' dynamic and strategic behavior at the micro level. We
examine fishermen's strategies in a fully dynamic game that accounts for
latent resource dynamics and other players' actions and recover the profit
structure of the fishery. The ability to measure...
Grapevine red blotch virus (GRBV) is a single-stranded DNA virus that causes grapevine red blotch disease (GRBD). Symptoms of GRBD include red discoloring of leaf margins and red veins on the underside of the leaves. GRBD affects the plant's metabolism and photosynthetic pathways, and disrupts carbon translocation and chlorophyll concentrations....
The study reported in this thesis is part of an investigation designed to determine the metabolism of thiamine and riboflavin in human subjects who were maintained on controlled diets. Part of this investigation was made during a 30-day experimental period in 1950 and the other part, during a 30-day experimental...
