A biometrical evaluation of certain genetic and environmental parameters in a large herd of Santa Gertrudis cattle
(1967)
Production data from a large herd of Santa Gertrudis cattle were analyzed to estimate the importance of certain genetic and environmental parameters. Partial records were available for 6,436 weaning calves from 2,927 ...
The relationship of aerobic physical fitness to selected personality traits measured by the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory
(1963)
The first purpose of the study was to determine the relationship between physical fitness as measured by aerobic capacity and selected personality traits as measured by the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI). ...
Beneficial arthropods as affected by insecticides and cotton genotypes in cotton fields near the upper gulf coast of Texas
(1962)
The effects of early-season applications of several insecticides for the cotton fleahopper on the beneficial arthropod complex were studied during 1969 and 1970 in cotton fields near the upper gulf coast of Texas. These ...
Post-harvest respiration, phosphorylation and carbohydrates in the southern pea, Vigna Sinensis, as influenced by maturity and elevated temperatures
(1962)
Southern peas are difficult to shell when they are harvested at an immature stage. To overcome this, processors have resorted to a rather severe sweat process to increase the per cent shell-out. Post-harvest changes ...
Attitudes toward outdoor recreation and forestry, adoption of forestry practices, and selected characteristics of non-corporate owners of large forest tracts in East Texas
(1961)
A study was undertaken during the summer of 1971 to determine the propensity of owners of large non-corporate forest tracts to open their lands to the general public for recreational opportunities. Private landowners were ...
The feasibility of a dual-frequency radar system in studying the morphology of subtropical precipitation
(1961)
Investigation has been conducted on the feasibility of a dual-frequency radar system for the study of the morphology of subtropical precipitation. The system considered for empirical verification of the theoretical feasibility ...
Sedimentation equilibrium studies on betalactoglobulin C at acid pH
(1961)
The self-association of [beta]-lactoglobulin C at acid pH has been studied in glycine buffers and acetate buffers by sedimentation equilibrium. In glycine buffers, pH ca. .25, the self-association was studied by low and ...
Distribution approximation by control variable Monte Carlo sampling
(1961)
An algorithm is presented which combines the techniques of statistical simulation and numerical integration, thus furnishing improved estimates of cumulative distribution functions. The method uses statistical estimation ...
