Catalogue Of The Living Collection Of The Iowa State University Botany Department Greenhouses, Richard W. Pohl, Deborah Q. Lewis Jan 1988

Catalogue Of The Living Collection Of The Iowa State University Botany Department Greenhouses, Richard W. Pohl, Deborah Q. Lewis

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

The Botany Department greenhouses at Iowa State University are a rooftop facility including 17 separate houses, divided into three temperature zones. Some illuminated houses are provided to encourage good plant growth during the winter. One greenhouse is operated as a short-day facility and provided with curtained chambers for short days. Summer cooling of the greenhouses is effected by evaporative coolers.

The living teaching and research collections include over 800 plane taxa, ranging from bryophytes to orchids and composites. Propagation materials, as available, may be provided to other educational institutions for teaching or research.

This report is the next in the sequence of such reports being sent each semester to give the University community information concerning grade distributions. These grade distributions are by instructional areas and/or programs rather than departments only. Thus areas such as Educational Media Center, Individual Studies, and Human Relations are also identified. By request, the Humanities and General Sciences areas have been retained with the appropriate departments.

An Industry Perspective On The Benefits Of And Regulation Of Genetically Engineered Plants, Nicholas M. Frey Jan 1988

An Industry Perspective On The Benefits Of And Regulation Of Genetically Engineered Plants, Nicholas M. Frey

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

The seed industry has routinely incorporated new technology into its research and development programs. Plant generic engineering is the most recent technology to be utilized for seed product development efforts. New sources of herbicide, insect, and disease resistance are being incorporated into crop plants using cellular and molecular biology techniques.

New regulatory guidelines have been developed which require regulatory approval before genetically engineered plants can be reseed in the field and ultimately marketed. The impact of these regulations on product development is unclear. Hopefully a dialogue will develop among industry, government agencies, and the public such that reasonable and appropriate …


Agronomic Performance Of Sorghum Hybrids Produced By Using Different Male-Sterility-Inducing Cytoplasms, A. J. Maves, R. E. Atkins Jan 1988

Agronomic Performance Of Sorghum Hybrids Produced By Using Different Male-Sterility-Inducing Cytoplasms, A. J. Maves, R. E. Atkins

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Experiments were conducted in three environments in Iowa to obtain information on the effects of different cytoplasms on agronomic characters in grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) hybrids. Compared with A1 cytoplasm, A2 and A3 cytoplasms delayed flowering; reduced the percentage of fertile pollen, the number of seeds per panicle, and grain yield; and increased 100-seed weight of the hybrids. Hybrids with A2 or A3 cytoplasm did not differ (p ≥0.05) from those in the A1 cytoplasm for plant height, panicles per plant, or for length, width, and area of the third and fourth leaves from the top of …


A Vascular Flora Of The Swaledale Railroad Prairie In North Central Iowa, Thomas L. Eddy Jan 1988

A Vascular Flora Of The Swaledale Railroad Prairie In North Central Iowa, Thomas L. Eddy

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

"Railroad prairies" are remnant native grasslands that grow along railroad right-of-ways. The Swaledale railroad prairie, which is in north central Iowa, occurs along the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad Company right-of-way in Cerro Gordo County.

The railroad right-of-way and an abandoned sand pit, which lies adjacent to the railroad embankment, harbor a collection of tallgrass prairie remnants. The sand pit supplied earthen fill which was used to elevate the original railroad embankment, circa 1887. It is noteworthy that the method of excavation for fill material helped to preserve earthen knolls that are covered with original tallgrass prairie.

Plant collections were acquired …

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

With this issue, the former Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science becomes The Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science, a change which coincides with the l00th annual meeting of the Academy. This concludes a process started in 1971 when the Proceedings became a quarterly periodical which also included papers that had not been presented at the previous annual meeting.


Impact Of Biotechnology On Agriculture Productivity, Roger A. Kleese Jan 1988

Impact Of Biotechnology On Agriculture Productivity, Roger A. Kleese

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Biotechnology is a diverse array of technologies which today are in various stages of evolution and development. To understand them and the potential application of these technologies to agriculture, it is helpful to consider them in a historical perspective. In addition, it is important to understand the interdependence of biotechnologies on traditional, well developed technologies. The commercial development of biotechnology is more difficult than imagined even as recently as five years ago. Also, the problems being addressed generally demand a much better understanding of the physiology and biochemistry of the plant and animal systems under study. Nonetheless, there is a …
