Aeration, Phosphorous, And Lime Affect Nitrogen Mineralization In Imperfectly Drained Forest Soils, M. S. Bhangoo, D. J. Albritton, Eugene Shoulders
Aeration, Phosphorous, And Lime Affect Nitrogen Mineralization In Imperfectly Drained Forest Soils, M. S. Bhangoo, D. J. Albritton, Eugene Shoulders
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Unamended, limed, and phosphorus-enriched Caddo, Beauregard, and Wrightsville silt loams (A1 horizon) were incubated for six months at room temperature under two moisture regimes. At field capacity, unamended soils lost 0.7% of organic matter and converted 166 ppm of organic nitrogen to inorganic forms. Ninety-five percent of the converted nitrogen was present as N₄-H or NO₃-N. Limed and phosphorus-treated soils at field capacity lost about 1.0% of organic matter and accumulated 191 to 201 ppm of inorganic nitrogen. Submerged soils lost very little organic matter and accumulated only 24 to 28 ppm of inorganic nitrogen. There was a loss of …
Dietary Fat-Carbohydrate Combinations: Their Effects On Lipid Metabolism In Estrogen-Treated Rats, Beverly A. Clevidence
Dietary Fat-Carbohydrate Combinations: Their Effects On Lipid Metabolism In Estrogen-Treated Rats, Beverly A. Clevidence
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Female rats 4 weeks old were fed diets including beef tallow or safflower oil in combination with sucrose or rice starch. At 8 weeks of age, half the rats were orally administered 2 of estrogen (mestranol) in 5 μl of safflower oil and half were fed the vehicle only. After 10 to 14 days of estrogen treatment, rats were fasted and exsanguinated. Alterations were found in weight gain, liver weights, and levels of various lipids in plasma and liver. Most lipid levels were influenced by an interaction of mestranol with one of the dietary factors. No changes were observed in …
Characteristics And Behavior Of Guineafowl And Domesticated Chicken Hybrids, Earl L. Hanebrink
Characteristics And Behavior Of Guineafowl And Domesticated Chicken Hybrids, Earl L. Hanebrink
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
The description, behavior, and morphologic measurements are presented for two hybrid crosses of domesticated chicken and guineafowl. The ease at which gallinaceous birds hybridize might warrant a closer look at the classification system. Possibly the number of families in the superfamily Phasianoidea should be reduced as some other researchers suggest.

Subterranean Clover In W.A. 1. The Current Situation, B J. Quinlivan, C. M. Francis
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
From small beginnings some 50 or more years ago subterranean clover has come to dominate the pasture scene in Western Australia. Of the 7 000 000 hectares of sown pasture all but some 500 000 are sown to subterranean clover. Further, it is estimated that there remains an area of similar size still to be sown, although in some instances these future sowings will be possible only if suitable varieties are available.
Clearing and pasture development within the various agricultural regions of the State took place, as a rule, within quite clearly defined time intervals and the varieties selected for …

A quick look at three areas in which the A.P.B. are working with landholders to protect Western Australia from invasion.
Protecting our agriculture and wildlife is not only the APB's job— it is very much the community's job also. Any suspect birds or plants must be reported immediately to the Agriculture Protection Board.
Green Lemons Safe From Fruit Fly, A N. Sproul
Green Lemons Safe From Fruit Fly, A N. Sproul
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Importers' demands for fruit imports to be free of local pests places great restrictions on the movement of fruit between States, between countries, and sometimes within a State.
In Western Australia a Fresh Fruit Disinfestation Committee was formed in 1969 to direct State research aimed at developing techniques for post-harvest fruit sterilsation Programmes are supported by State and Federal funds and, in W.A., have provided staff and facilities to work on Mediterranean fruit fly. Parallel work with Queensland fruit fly and codlin moth is being done in New South Wales and Victoria.
Comparison Of Phototactic Behavior Of Three Populations Of Dropsophila Melanogaster, Ross S. Anderson
Comparison Of Phototactic Behavior Of Three Populations Of Dropsophila Melanogaster, Ross S. Anderson
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
Phototactic response of three distinct breeding populations of Drosophila melanogaster are compared through experimental maze runs and under differing light stimuli. While it is suggested that more meaningful results may depend on intensified selection pressure and studies of a greater number of generations, evidence from these observations indicates a clear difference in photo tactic behavior between the fly population drawn from laboratory stock subject to in-breeding and the positive responses of the two populations captured "wild" and thus reflecting the selection process of nature.
Rapeseed Cultivation And Usage, M. Dolores Ahles
Rapeseed Cultivation And Usage, M. Dolores Ahles
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
Rapeseed, an oil-producing crop that was cultivated in pre-Christian times in India and the Orient but was generally given up, has again become an important source of protein oil and meal. In Canada, now the leading export producer, rapeseed output is surpassed only by wheat, oats, and barley. Cultivation and processing as well as the history of this crop are discussed.
Chlorofluorocarbon Effects On Cardiac, Pulmonary, And Respiratory Patients, Mildred E. Olson
Chlorofluorocarbon Effects On Cardiac, Pulmonary, And Respiratory Patients, Mildred E. Olson
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
Research results from studies of the physiological effects of aerosal propellants on animals and people are summarized. The papers selected for this summary were published between 1968 and 1975. Effects of the 15 chlorofluorocarbons used as propellants have been recorded on the cardiac, pulmonary and respiratory functions of a number of animal species as well as man. The fifteen propellants have been classified into four groups on the basis of their degree of toxicity. Fluorocarbon 11, the most frequently used propellant, is in group 1, the most toxic. The relative toxicity of each of the 14 other propellants compared with …
Nutrient Input By Precipitation In Northern Minnesota Forest Ecosystem, Nicholas B. Comerford, Edwin H. White
Nutrient Input By Precipitation In Northern Minnesota Forest Ecosystem, Nicholas B. Comerford, Edwin H. White
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
Yearly precipitation was sampled and analyzed for total content of N, P, K, Ca and Mg to assess the role of gross precipitation in adding nutrient elements to sites in northern Minnesota. Data from this study is part of a larger effort to determine the effects of mechanized harvesting on the nutrient cycle. Data from the present study indicate that it is unlikely that total yearly precipitation will be able to maintain adequate levels of site productivity on areas that are full-tree harvested. Total yearly nutrient income in lbs/acre was N - 3.9; P - .23; K - 2.29; Ca …

Progress In The Nursery Industry, W J. Heggers
Progress In The Nursery Industry, W J. Heggers
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The demand for ornamental plants in Western Australia is sat an unprecedented level, making the nursery industry a relatively prosperous branch of horticulture.
One reason for the continued demand for nursery lines is probably that people are concerned about the environment - "green survival", as it is often refered to in promotional literature.
In rural areas, farmers are becoming increasingly aware of the value of planting windbreaks, shade and ornamental trees, while mining companies and the Forests Department are actively engaged in re-afforestation.
As a result the nursery industry is in a healthy situation and can continue to develop in …
Comparison Of Economic Returns From Grain Crops, H M. Fisher
Comparison Of Economic Returns From Grain Crops, H M. Fisher
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
While wheat is still generally the most profitable crop in Western Australia the relative profitability of barley and linseed has risen in the last few years; in southern areas they are likely to be at least as profitable as wheat.
Oats has fallen in profitability relative to wheat, and grain legumes have suffered a marked fall. Yields of these grains have increased with the introduction of new varieties but their price increases have not kept pace with those of wheat and barley. The present relationship of yields and costs indicates that substantial price changes will be needed to change the …
The Mediterranean White Lupin, John Sylvester Gladstones
The Mediterranean White Lupin, John Sylvester Gladstones
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
"If you want to bring in a good lupin harvest, thrash your wife soundly before you go out sowing in the field". Old Syrian Proverb.
Lupin breeder Dr. John Gladstones does not beat his wife as recommended in the Syrian proverb above. Nor is he known to use ground up lupin seeds for the diverse cosmetic and medicinal purposes recommended in ancient Roman and other texts on lupins.
But his modern work on lupin breeding and development has undoubtedly been influenced by his detailed study of such writings.
In this article he discusses the history of the Mediterranean white lupin …

Low Protein Rations Halve Bacon Pig Profits, N W. Godfrey
Low Protein Rations Halve Bacon Pig Profits, N W. Godfrey
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
For many years the department of agriculture has recommended that pig producers include meat meal or other protein concentrate in pig rations based on cereal grains. However, it is still common for pigs to be raised on cereal grains with little or no protein added.
Recent trials at the Department of Agriculture's Medina Pig Research Station have demonstrated the losses which can result from feeding pigs on low-protein cereal rations.

Biology And Distribution Of The Macrocoelenterates Of Mississippi Sound And Adjacent Waters, W. David Burke
Gulf and Caribbean Research
Studies conducted in Mississippi Sound from April 1971 through June 1973 elucidated the seasonal and areal distribution of seven species of macrocoelenterates: Aurelia aurita (L), Chrysaora quinquecirrhu (Desor 1848), Pelagia noctiluca Forskål 1775, Chiropsalmus quadrumantus (Miiller 1859), Rhopilema verrillii (Fewkes 1887), Stomolophus meleagris L. Agassiz 1862, and Physalia physalis (L). Physical parameters presumed relevant to the distribution of each of these animals are presented. Developmental histories of certain of these forms are described.

Penaeid Shrimp Distributions In Mobile Bay, Alabama, Including Low-Salinity Records, Harold C. Loesch
Gulf and Caribbean Research
Low-salinity records in the Gulf of Mexico area for taking Penaeus duorarum in water of 0.7‰ and 28°C, and Penaeus aztecus in water of 0.2‰ and 29.5°C were established in Mobile Bay, Alabama. Catches in Mobile Bay of approximately 20,000 each of P. aztecus and Penaeus setiferus, distributed over a 30-month period, show that P. aztecus taken in the hotter months had a wider salinity preference (5 to 30‰) than those taken in the cooler months (10 to 15‰). During the warmer months P. setiferus was most common in waters below 5‰ and during the winter months was almost …
Lupin Split Seed : A Disorder Of Seed Production In Sweet, Narrow-Leafed Lupins, M W. Perry, J. W. Gartrell
Lupin Split Seed : A Disorder Of Seed Production In Sweet, Narrow-Leafed Lupins, M W. Perry, J. W. Gartrell
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Commercial seed production from narrow-leafed lupins (Lupinus angustifolius L.) began in Western Australia in 1967, based on the newly-bred low alkaloid cultivar Uniwhite. The release of improved cultivars has led to the crop's wide acceptance and more than 100 000 ha were sown to sweet lupins in 1975.
With the greater area and wider range of soil types devoted to lupins, a developmental abnormality of the seeds, which became known as "split seed", was observed in some situations.
