Modulation of replication and RNA-protein interactions in brome mosaic virus
(1993)
The 3' termini of the three genomic RNAs of BMV contain cis-acting elements essential for the promotion of (-)-strand synthesis. To understand the biological significance of the maintenance of specific base differences in ...
A screening technique for detecting levels of resistance in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) to belly rot induced by Rhizoctonia solani Kuehn
(1988)
A procedure for detecting cucumber fruit resistance to belly rot induced by Rhizoctonia solani is described. Inoculum in an unsterilized soil, naturally infested with Rhizoctonia solani Kuehn, AG-4, was increased by placing ...
Electron field emission in porous silicon
(1991)
Anodization of a heavily doped silicon wafer followed by oxidation can build a structure of an insulated layer with vertical voids on the substrate. When a positive potential is applied on the top of the insulating layer, ...
Submersed weed management with triploid grass carp in waterlily production ponds
(1990)
Weed control by triploid grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella Val.) in waterlily (Nymphaea cultivars) production ponds was investigated and simulated. The 4 x 2 factorial experiment involved eight duplicated treatments ...
Granulosa cell lines as models of ovarian carcinogenesis
(1990)
Cell lines derived from rat ovarian granulosa cells were established as an epithelial model system for studies of in vitro transformation. A series of experiments focused on analysis of an unusual nuclear distribution of ...
Studies on the expression and modulation of gap junctions in rat myometrial cell cultures
(1993)
The expression and modulation of myometrial gap junctions remain poorly understood. However, the availability of new molecular and biochemical tools including cDNAs and antipeptide antibodies permits extensive characterization ...
Plowshares into swords : the decision to mobilize the National Guard in 1940
(1990)
In September 1939, as Europe went to war, the United States had an Army rated seventeenth in the world. The National Guard was a force, although partially equipped and trained, that could augment it. The Army quickly won ...
Fissure characteristics related to moisture adsorption stresses in rice
(1994)
Rice kernels may develop fissures due to internal stresses when subjected to moisture adsorbing environments. Rice kernels were initially conditioned to three equilibrium relative humidities (ERH) of 46, 62, and 80%, and ...
An investigation of the effects of variance components on the performance of job shop dispatching policies
(1990)
The objectives of this research are twofold. First, to investigate the impact of unequal processing time variances on overall shop performance. Second, to implement strategies for improving job shop performance by designing ...
Empowerment processes in shelters for battered women
(1991)
Three major dimensions of the empowerment process are identified (actors, goals, guidelines for practice) through a review of the literature on the practice of empowerment. Subsequently, empowerment is formally defined as ...
