The Excised Embryo Culture Method For Controlled Seedling Growth Of The Sweet Fern, Comptonia Peregrina, Of The Family Myricaceae, Helen E. Heino

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

Sweet fern, Comptonia peregrina (L.) Coult. according to Fernald (1950), in older literature often referred to as Myrica asplenifolia L. or Comptonia asplenifolia (L.) Ait., is the only species in this genus. It is a low branching, stoloniferous shrub up to a meter and a half tall, with linear-lanceolate leaves that are regularly and deeply pinnatifid giving a fern-like appearance, though it is not at all related to the ferns. It has a characteristic sweet resinous scent. The plants are monoecious or dioecious, flowers are in catkins; staminate catkins are slender and cylindrical; pistillate catkins become a spherical bur-like fruit. …

Campaniform Sensilla Patterns On The Wings Of Drosophila, Charles L. Hamrum, Arthur W. Glass, Vern Sisson

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

Campaniform sensilla have been described from the wings, mouthparts, legs, and other parts of the insect body. These small sense organs were known under several terms until Berlese ( 1909) applied the term "campaniformi" because of their dome, or bell-shaped character. Numerous functions have been suggested for these organs which seem to be stress receptors of some sort. Very few attempts have been made to utilize these sensilla as taxonomic characters.

Growing Vegetables In South Dakota, Paul Prashar, Dean M. Martin

SDSU Extension Circulars

Many South Dakota families have saved as much as $200 to $300 on the family food bill by raising a good garden planned to meet their needs. Gardening provides a useful, profitable form of recreation for the entire family. In addition fresh vegetables are readily available and supply important amounts of certain essential vitamins and minerals. Vegetables picked and used fresh from the garden are superior to those that have lost quality through delay in getting from the grower to the consumer or from being picked before they are ripe. Preservation and storage make it possible to have some home …

Staining Of Barley Kernels By Bacteria, Richard W. Lutey

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

The demand for beer light in color has placed emphasis on the need to regulate malting as to produce, naturally and consistently, malts that are light in color (Bawden and Artis 1954), and malt having a clean pleasing aroma (Hopkins and Krause 1937). Even when bright barley, relatively free of field fungi, is malted, the finished product tends to be darker in color than the starting materials; in some cases to the extent that bleaching with sulfur dioxide gas is required (Hopkins and Krause 1937; Oesting et al. 1949). The cause of this discoloration is not known, but bacteria might …

Pollination Studies With Native Minnesota Pyrola And Moneses Species, Lawrence C.W. Jensen

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

The closely related ericaceous ericaceous genera, Pyrola L. and Monese Salisb. ex. Gray, are common throughout the world in coniferous woods of north temperate areas. Characteristically they are small herbaceous plants with basal evergreen leaves and decorative inflorescences of green, white or pink flowers appearing in the early summer. In Minnesota there are five species of Pyrola-P. asarifolia Michx., P. elliptica Nutt., P. rotundifolia L., P. secunda L., and P. virens Schweigger. There is also the one species of Moneses, M. uniffora (L.) Gray. All these occur together in abundant quantities and bloom at approximately the same time. Consequently they …

Antibiotic Residues In Milk : The Farmer's Responsibility, N Ingleton

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THE LEVEL of antibiotic residues in commercial milk supplies has been steadily increasing over the past few years.

These residues find their way into the bulk milk as a result of milk from cows under antibiotic treatment for mastitis or other infections being included in the bulk milk for sale.

A Physiological Comparison Of Isopods In The Transition From A Marine To A Terrestrial Habitat : With Notes On Their Morphology And Behavior, Gary John Brusca

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

This study is of five species of isopods common to the Dillon Beach area, each of which represents a different level in the transition toward land life. Cirolana harfordi was used as a completely marine form. Idothea (Pentidotea) wosnesenskii represents a step toward land life as it inhabits an area uncovered by most low tides. Ligia occidentalis is found in the splash zone, receiving spray from the action of the surf. This illustrates another, higher, level in the transition. Alloniscus perconvexus was the fourth species studied. It is commonly found burrowed in the sand in the area of the berm, …

The Biology Of Karyolysus Dilloni N. Sp. From Rana Aurora Draytoni, Wayne Aldo Sorsoli

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

While investigating various Amphibia of Central California for blood inhabiting parasites, the writer found a parasite in the blood of the Rod-legged Frog (Rana aurora draytoni) which exhibited the characteristics of Karyolysus, yet was different from any described; this same parasite had been previously observed by Dr. D. L. Lerhmann, Associate Professor of Zoology, University of the Pacific. In order to increase the knowledge of this form, further investigations were undertaken.

The first step was to determine the life cycle in the vertebrate host and, if possible, to find the invertebrate host and to elaborate the developmental stages in the …

Trematodes Recovered From Passerine Birds Collected In Chickasaw County, Iowa, (With Notes On Other Avian Helminths), Charles J. Ellis

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The present study is a survey of the trematodes found in passerine birds collected in the Goodale Conservation Area of Chickasaw County, Iowa, from October 1959 through August 1960. Non-trematodic infections are reported also.

A Study Of The Effects Of Different Substrates On Growth And Reproduction In Certain Coprophilic Agaricaceae, Raymond C. Brown

Theses and Dissertations

Psilocybe mutans sp. nov. had ceased fruiting consistently in artificial culture several years prior to the initiation of this study. In the couse of this study fruiting bodies were produced on a number of different substrates. All cultures were inoculated by mycelial transfer or by spraying with a suspension of pre-germinated spores. All cultrues were incubated for one to two weeks in a constant-temperature room at 70°F. on a shelf fourteen inches below a fluorescent lighting fixture. Lighting was continuous with an intensity at shelf level of approximately 3,000 foot-candles. Fruiting on any particular substrate was improved if the substrate …

Use Of Dialdehyde Starch In Coating Color Formulation, Craig F. Panse

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

A literature survey was conducted to determine what work, if any, had been done on dialdehyde starch as a coating adhesive. As a result of the survey, it was decided that experimental work would be started with the hope of overcoming some of the difficulties which confronted previous investigators and investigating further the use of dialdehyde starch as an adhesive.

After experimental preparation and evaluation of the coated and aftertreated sheets, the following conclusions were formed:

1. The addition of ten percent borax buffered or bisulphite buffered dialdehyde starch to conventional oxidized starch increases the surface strength of the coating …

Studies On The Relationship Of Moisture Content To Threshability And Viability Of Pea Seeds, Filixberto Roquia Y Dulalas

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

When in commercial practice seed peas (Pisum sativum) are harvested, the vines are cut and windrowed or bunched and allowed to cure for a week or longer, depending upon the moisture content of the crop and weather conditions. The sooner the crop can be threshed, the less is the chance of loss caused by rain and the often-necessary attendant operation of turning the windrow or bunch to facilitate drying. In general, growers wait until the vines, pods, and seeds are quite dry. To what extent this is necessary is not known.

The Effect Of Starch On Clay Dispersions, John L. Moore

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Cationic starches and anionic (oxidized) starches are compared in this thesis with respect to their effect upon dispersion. The methods used for determining dispersion quality were relative sediment volume (RSV) and the Hercules Hi-Shear Viscometer. These methods are compared as to-their applicability for use as practical. tools in determining color dispersion quality. Limitations of RSV are discussed with regard to clay-starch mixtures. Comparisons are made using both types of starch on predispersed and undispersed clays. Hercules rheograms are compared for samples using both starches and clays at 40 percent solids. The rheograms indicate no difference between the cationic and anionic …
