The Common Intestinal Roundworm Of Swine, H. M. Martin Mar 1923

The Common Intestinal Roundworm Of Swine, H. M. Martin

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

The large intestinal roundworm of pigs is a very common parasite, and is probably present in every hog raising district of Nebraska. Up until the last few years the true nature of this parasite was unknown. Little did we realize the actual harm done by this worm; but through the scientific investigations of Stewart, Ransom, and others we now know that this parasite causes heavier losses to the breeder and feeder of swine than any other now common in Nebraska.


Relation Of Environment And Other Factors To Potato Wilt Caused By Fusarium Oxysporum, R. W. Goss Mar 1923

Relation Of Environment And Other Factors To Potato Wilt Caused By Fusarium Oxysporum, R. W. Goss

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

The present work was undertaken to determine the influence of some environmental factors on the infection and progress of the disease potato wilt. The work has not progressed to the point of determining the exact relation of each of these factors. However, the results thus far obtained are presented here in order to direct attention to the nature and distribution of the disease in relation to the environmental conditions under which certain types of infection take place.


Some Field Instruments And Their Applications, G. W. Goldsmith Jan 1923

Some Field Instruments And Their Applications, G. W. Goldsmith

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

Physiology and ecology depend for their constructive development largely upon the applications of physico-chemical concepts to living organisms and their environment, to their life processes, reactions, and interrelations. A concept is valuable biologically in so far as it can be applied and used as a tool for better understanding of the phenomena related to life. Ecology, as the study of the relations between organisms and their environment and of the interrelations of organisms, depends primarily upon the findings of physiology (Clements, 1905). But to apply physicochemical concepts and hence make them of value to the physiologist or ecologist commonly requires …

Anthocyan Pigments, Paul B. Sears Jun 1922

Anthocyan Pigments, Paul B. Sears

Papers in Ecology

Noack has found rhamnose-free flavonol diglucosides to be much more abundant in green leaves than has generally been supposed. In such leaves as he studied he was able to establish the existence of flavonol-anthocyan in couples of similar glucosidal nature, but secured no evidence of aromatic nucleus composition in such cases. He suggests that these couples function as a reduction mechanism during photosynthesis.

Fusarium Blight Of The Soy Bean And The Relation Of Various Factors To Infection, Richard O. Cromwell Nov 1919

Fusarium Blight Of The Soy Bean And The Relation Of Various Factors To Infection, Richard O. Cromwell

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

An investigation was outlined (1) to determine the parasitism of Fusarium on soy bean, (2) to establish its relationship to Fusaria of the section Elegans in so far as a comparison of the cultural characters permitted, and (3) by means of cross- inoculations and field studies to determine the relationship of this disease of soy beans to the wilt disease of cowpeas (Vigna sinensis Hassk.) caused by Fusarium tracheiphilum Smith. The results of these investigations up to the close of the summer of 1916 have been reported. The studies were continued at the North Carolina Experiment Station until the …


The Nearctic Psammocharids Of The Genus Aporinellus Banks, Joseph Bequaert Oct 1919

The Nearctic Psammocharids Of The Genus Aporinellus Banks, Joseph Bequaert

Ba

On one of the collecting trips made this summer with Prof. William M. Wheeler, in the vicinity of Boston, I collected a little Psammocharid which has proved to be an undescribed species of Aporinellus. In comparing this specimen with Mr. Nathan Banks' extensive collection of Psammocharids I have found another undescribed member of the same genus. Descriptions of both forms are given herewith, together with a brief review of the group. I am much indebted to Mr. Nathan Banks, of the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Cambridge, Mass., for the loan of rich material containing many types and for valuable bibliographic …

Halictinae De Cuba, Carl F. Baker Jan 1919

Halictinae De Cuba, Carl F. Baker

An

Las Halictinae, especialmente en los zonas templadas, forman uno de los grupos más grandes de abejas silvestres, y son de interés biológico especial en cuanto al importante papel que juegan en la polinización de las plantas. Ninguna abeja de este género es grande y en su mayoría son pequeñas. Al-gunas són de color colorado brillante pero la mayor parte carece de adornos. Las alas anteriores tienen el estigma muy desarrollado, dos ó tres células submarginales y la vena basal muy encorvada. Todas las hembras tienen en el último segmento dorsal un canal, llamado la rima, que á menudo se extiende …

Studies Of The Etiology And Control Of Blister Canker On Apple Trees, J. Ralph Cooper Dec 1917

Studies Of The Etiology And Control Of Blister Canker On Apple Trees, J. Ralph Cooper

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

The blister canker caused by Nummularia discreta Tul. is by far the most destructive disease of apple trees found in the United States. Serious damage due to this disease was first reported in Illinois in 1902. Since that time the disease has been reported to cause much damage in all apple-producing sections east of the Rocky Mountains. In Nebraska the disease is so prevalent that it is practically impossible to find an orchard free from it, and in many instances whole orchards have been destroyed thru its attacks. Because of the rapid dissemination and the destructive nature of blister canker, …


Color And Color-Pattern Mechanism Of Tiger Beetles, Victor E. Shelford Jun 1917

Color And Color-Pattern Mechanism Of Tiger Beetles, Victor E. Shelford

University of Nebraska State Museum: Entomology Papers

In 1903 the writer undertook a study of variation of the tiger beetles. The work here presented is the outgrowth of this beginning, and indeed includes some small portions regarding color patterns that were written in that year. The work has been prolonged for many reasons, but chief of these was the very large number of species in the group and the fact that an adequate understanding of the material could not be attained without consulting many large collections. Further, the experimental results obtained in 1906 demanded a firsthand study of the variations of the species concerned and their natural …

Ecological Studies In The Tension Zone Between Prairie And Woodland, J. E. Weaver, Albert F. Thiel Apr 1917

Ecological Studies In The Tension Zone Between Prairie And Woodland, J. E. Weaver, Albert F. Thiel

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Upon the completion of a series of investigations in southeastern Washington and adjacent Idaho, in which there was found to be a direct relation between the available water content of the soil and the evaporating power of the air as succession progressed from grassland through scrub to forest, the senior writer moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota. Here such excellent conditions of prairie invaded by scrub and followed by forest offered themselves for study that the services of the junior author were enlisted and an analysis of the situation attempted. Later this study was supplemented by similar work carried on at Lincoln, …


Bulletin No. 151 - The Freezing Of Fruit Buds, F. L. West, N. E. Edlefsen Feb 1917

Bulletin No. 151 - The Freezing Of Fruit Buds, F. L. West, N. E. Edlefsen

UAES Bulletins

There are many orchards in this country, so located that every few years a frost almost completely destroys the crop, either by killing the buds in the spring of the year, or by freezing the fruit in the fall, just before it is picked. Utah is no exception. A report made by the county agricultural agents of the state, shows that in the spring of 1916, 85 percent of the apples, 90 percent of the peaches, and 65 percent of the mall fruit were killed by frost with a corresponding amount of damage to field crops.

A Physiological Study Of Two Strains Of Fusarium In Their Causal Relation To Tuber Rot And Wilt Of Potato, George K. Link Sep 1916

A Physiological Study Of Two Strains Of Fusarium In Their Causal Relation To Tuber Rot And Wilt Of Potato, George K. Link

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

1. Fusarium tuberivorum Wilcox and Link is the same as Fusarium trichothecioides Woll. 2. Both Fusarium oxysporum and F. trichothecioides can produce both tuber rot and wilt of the potato plant. 3. The wilt is induced by destruction of the root system and by clogging of the xylem elements in the stem, and is, in mild cases, marked by such symptoms as discoloration of leaves, curling and rolling of leaves, and production of aerial tubers. 4. Under field and storage conditions Fusarium oxysporum is more probably responsible for wilt than is F. trichothecioides, and the latter more responsible for …
