An Improved Method For Chemical Devitellinization Of X-Gal Stained Drosophila Embryos, Amit Singh, Madhuri Kango-Singh, P. Sinha
An Improved Method For Chemical Devitellinization Of X-Gal Stained Drosophila Embryos, Amit Singh, Madhuri Kango-Singh, P. Sinha
Biology Faculty Publications
In Drosophila developmental biological studies, X-gal staining is commonly employed to study the spatio-temporal expression of the lacZ reporter gene in the transformed flies or their embryos. Study of the lacZ pattern in embryos often suffers from the lack of an efficient and high yieldirrg technique for devitellinization of X-gal stained embryos. Devitellinization techniques employed during antibody staining, in situ hybridization or embryonic cuticular preparations generally do not give satisfactory results when used for similar purpose in X-gal stained embryos. This results in the flaky appearance of the blue stain. We present here an improved chemical devitellinization technique which gives …
Biotechnology : Exposing The Myths & Realities, Sue Sutherland, Alan Lymbery
Biotechnology : Exposing The Myths & Realities, Sue Sutherland, Alan Lymbery
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Biotechnology has become one of the buzz words of the 1990s. Sounds impressive but what's it all about? Sue Sutherland and Alan Lymbery unravel some of the jargon and explore its potential for Western Australian agriculture.
Molecular Cloning And Rare Cleavage Mapping Of Human 2p, 6q, 8q, 12q, And 18q Telomeres, Roberto A. Macina, Ken Morii, Xue-Lan Hu, Dimitri G. Negorev, Chrysanthe Spais, Lisa A. Ruthig, Harold C. Riethman
Molecular Cloning And Rare Cleavage Mapping Of Human 2p, 6q, 8q, 12q, And 18q Telomeres, Roberto A. Macina, Ken Morii, Xue-Lan Hu, Dimitri G. Negorev, Chrysanthe Spais, Lisa A. Ruthig, Harold C. Riethman
Medical Diagnostics & Translational Sciences Faculty Publications
Large terminal fragments of human chromosomes 2p, 6q, 8q, 12q, and 18q were cloned using yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs). RecA-assisted restriction endonuclease (RARE) cleavage analysis of genomic DNA samples from 11 unrelated individuals using YAC-derived probes confirmed the telomeric localizations of the half-YACs studied. The cloned Fragments provide telomeric closure of maps for the respective chromosome arms and will supply the reagents needed for analyzing and sequencing these distal subtelomeric regions.
Development And Application Of A Thermistor Current Meter, Carl M. Way, Albert J. Burky, Christine Miller-Way
Development And Application Of A Thermistor Current Meter, Carl M. Way, Albert J. Burky, Christine Miller-Way
Biology Faculty Publications
This report provides details for the construction of a hot-bead thermistor current meter which is capable of measuring water velocities on a millimeter spatial scale and for the construction of a compact and accurate calibration system. Hot-bead thermistor current meters can be built with response times of 200 ms capable of measuring velocities between 0.1 and 80 cm s-1. The construction of a sturdy probe for application in lotic systems such as high gradient Hawaiian streams was achieved by the use of heavy-duty acrylic tubing, small stainless steel gas-chromatography tubing, and flexible Tygon spaghetti tubing. An acrylic handle anchors the …
Seasonal Responses Of Filtration Rates To Temperature, Oxygen Availability, And Particle Concentration Of The Freshwater Clam, Musculium Partumeium (Say), Albert J. Burky, Richard B. Benjamin, Denis G. Conover, Jennifer Detrick
Seasonal Responses Of Filtration Rates To Temperature, Oxygen Availability, And Particle Concentration Of The Freshwater Clam, Musculium Partumeium (Say), Albert J. Burky, Richard B. Benjamin, Denis G. Conover, Jennifer Detrick
Biology Faculty Publications
Seasonal filtration rates of a pond population of the freshwater pisidiid clam, Musculium partumeium (Say), were assessed by measuring the clearance of 2.02 µ.m latex beads from suspension and expressed in terms of FR = a(AFDW}b where FR = filtration rate (ml H20 · hr- 1 ) , AFDW = mg ash-free dry weight of a whole clam and "a" and "b" are constants. The a-values ( = FR of a 1-mg AFDW clam} vary seasonally with the highest rates corresponding to periods of maximum growth and reproduction in the spring and fall. Changes in "b" reflect the influence of …
Interpopulation Variation In Calcareous And Proteinaceous Shell Components In The Stream Limpet, Ferrissia Rivularis, Carl M. Way, Daniel J. Hornbach, Albert J. Burky
Interpopulation Variation In Calcareous And Proteinaceous Shell Components In The Stream Limpet, Ferrissia Rivularis, Carl M. Way, Daniel J. Hornbach, Albert J. Burky
Biology Faculty Publications
Natural populations of the North American stream limpet, F. rivularis, were studied in upstate New York [USA], in a set of localities whose waters have a 15-fold range of dissolved Ca (4.6-67.6 mg/liter) and also range from oligotrophy to eutrophy. Shell component analyses (CaCO3, total organic C and total N) are reported as component mass-fractions (mg/g or .mu.g/g dry weight) and as values for a standard limpet shell of 35 mm aperture length (AL). More than 2-fold differences occur between populations in all 3 components, with relatively little variation occurring within each population. Expressed per standard limpet, CaCO3 values for …
Seasonal Metabolism Of The Sphaeriid Clam, Musculium Partumeium (Say), From A Permanent And A Temporary Pond, Carl M. Way, Daniel J. Hornbach, Albert J. Burky
Seasonal Metabolism Of The Sphaeriid Clam, Musculium Partumeium (Say), From A Permanent And A Temporary Pond, Carl M. Way, Daniel J. Hornbach, Albert J. Burky
Biology Faculty Publications
Seasonal metabolic rates were examined for the sphaeriid clam, Musculium partumeium (Say) from a permanent and a temporary pond. For the fall-born generation from the permanent pond and for the single generation from the temporary pond, metabolic rates peak during periods of greatest growth and reproduction. Metabolic rates were consistently higher for the permanent pond population. These rates for Musculium partumeium extend the available information on the family Sphaeriidae to the genus Musculium.
Growth Of Pisidium Casertanum (Poli) In West Central Ohio, Albert J. Burky, Daniel J. Hornbach, Carl M. Way
Growth Of Pisidium Casertanum (Poli) In West Central Ohio, Albert J. Burky, Daniel J. Hornbach, Carl M. Way
Biology Faculty Publications
Clarke (1973) states that Pisidium casertanum (Poli) is perhaps the most common species of Pisidium and is truly cosmopolitan, occurring throughout Eurasia, Africa, Australia, and South, Central and North America. Populations of these clams are reported in habitats ranging from ephemeral ponds to benthic zones of deep lakes. Our study describes Manuscript received 29 May 1979 and in revised form 25 July 1980 (#79-34). 2 Present address: Department of Biology, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA 22901. 3 Present address: Department of Zoology, Miami University, Oxford, OH 45056. 41 aspects of the life-cycle of P. casertanum in a spring-fed stream with …
Buoyancy Changes As Related To Respiratory Behavior In An Amphibious Snail, Pomacea Urceus (Müller), From Venezuela, Kathleen A. Burky, Albert J. Burky
Buoyancy Changes As Related To Respiratory Behavior In An Amphibious Snail, Pomacea Urceus (Müller), From Venezuela, Kathleen A. Burky, Albert J. Burky
Biology Faculty Publications
The ampullariid Pomacea urceus uses its ctenidium and lung in respiration. The snails reach the surface with their siphon and ventilate their lung by withdrawing their head-foot in a pumping action. The lung gas also serves to change the buoyancy of the snails. After a ventilation a snail does not necessarily return to the same buoyancy level. They may achieve overall specific gravities of <1 to > 1 after a ventilation. They may remain submerged (s.g. > 1) or float (s.g.
