Helminths Of The Southwestern Toad, Bufo Microscaphus, Woodhouse's Toad, Bufo Woodhousii (Bufonidae), And Their Hybrids From Central Arizona, Stephen R. Goldberg, Charles R. Bursey, Keith B. Malmos, Brian K. Sullivan, Hay Cheam Nov 1996

Great Basin Naturalist

The gastrointestinal tracts, lungs, and urinary bladders from 77 Bufo microscaphus, 61 Bufo woodhousii, and 8 of their hybrids were examined for helminths. One species of trematode (Glypthelmins quieta), 1 species of cestode (Distoichometra bufonis), and 5 species of nematodes (Aplectana incerta, A. itzocanensis, Rhabdias americanus, Physaloptera sp., and Physocephalus sp.) were found. The greatest prevalence (41%) and mean intensity (231.7) were recorded for Aplectana incerta in Bufo woodhousii. It appears hybrids harbor fewer parasites than either parent species.

The Epidermis Still In Control?, Winfried Peters, A. Tomos Aug 1996

The Epidermis Still In Control?, Winfried Peters, A. Tomos

Winfried S. Peters

This paper has no abstract; these are the first two paragraphs. The search for a molecular mechanism of auxin action has rendered the “Auxin-Binding-Protein 1” (ABP-1) the top candidate for a functional auxin receptor (Venis and Napier, 1995), although its status remains disputed (Jones, 1994; Hertel, 1995; Napier, 1995; Venis, 1995). ABP-1 had long been thought to be localized exclusively in epidermal cells in coleoptiles (Löbler and Klämbt, 1985), and thus had fitted nicely the “epidermal-growth-control-hypothesis” (Kutschera, 1987, 1992). The recent report from the same lab of its uniform distribution throughout the coleoptile (Kayser and Klämbt, 1995) not only rises …

Gail Gasparich

In North America, the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata, is often infected with the host-specific, gut-inhabiting Colorado potato beetle spiroplasma (CPBS). CPBS is apparently a commensal, but it may be useful in biocontrol if it can be transformed to express an insect-lethal gene. Difficulty in cultivating the organism, however, has hindered the development of a suitable transformation system. In this study, we eliminated the need for coculturing CPBS with insect cells. CPBS was reliably isolated with the BBL Anaerobic GasPak Jar system (low redox, enhanced CO(inf2)), which was easier to use and less expensive than insect cell coculture methods. A …

Arkansas Rice Research Studies 1995, R. J. Norman, B. R. Wells

Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series

The research reports in this publication represent one year of results; therefore, these results should not be used as a basis for long-term recommendations. Several research reports in this publication dealing with soil fertility also appear in Arkansas Soil Fertility Studies 1995 , Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Series 450. This duplication is the result of the overlap in research coverage between the two series and our effort to inform Arkansas rice producers of all the research being conducted with funds from the rice check-off. Use of products and trade names in any of the research reports of this publication …

The History Of Tissue Tension, Winfried S. Peters, A. Deri Tomos Jun 1996

The History Of Tissue Tension, Winfried S. Peters, A. Deri Tomos

Winfried S. Peters

In recent years the phenomenon of tissue tension and its functional connection to elongation growth has regained much interest. In the present study we reconstruct older models of mechanical inhomogenities in growing plant organs, in order to establish an accurate historical background for the current discussion. We focus on the iatromechanic model developed in Stephen Hales' Vegetable Staticks, Wilhelm Hofmeister's mechanical model of negative geotropism, Julius Sachs' explanation of the development of tissue tension, and the differential-auxin-response-hypothesis by Kenneth Thimann and Charles Schneider. Each of these models is considered in the context of its respective historic and theoretical environment. …
