Botany In The Graduate Record Examination, Lloyd H. Shinners

Field and Laboratory

In the spring of 1953, a group of American colleges received grants from The Fund for the Advancement of Education (Ford Foundation) to make a study of their undergraduate teaching in liberal arts. As part of the study, many gave the Graduate Record Examination to the entire graduating class, believing that this would give an indication of their success in liberal arts training. Results of the examination in some cases led to curriculum changes. It is these last points which occasion the present remarks.

Andropogon Saccharoides Swartz Var. Longipaniculatus Var. Nov., F. W. Gould

Field and Laboratory

Andropogon saccharoides Swartz, the familiar silver beardgrass or silver bluestem, is a widely ranging polymorphic species. The interrelationships of the numerous named and unnamed varieties and forms of this species, and their relationships to Andropogon barbinodis Lag., A. altus Hitchc. and other species of this complex, have long been a perplexing problem to agrostologists.

The Texas Species Of Potentilla (Rosaceae), Lloyd H. Shinners

Field and Laboratory

The large and difficult genus Potentilla is gratifyingly represented in Texas by a very small number of easily distinguished species, but there is no complete or precise published record of those found in the state. The summary here given is based on the collections in the Herbarium of Southern Methodist University, that of the University of Texas, and the Tracy Herbarium of Texas A. & M. College.

Introduced Forage Grasses For Nebraska, F. D. Keim, L. C. Newell

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

This circular presents illustrations, descriptions and recommended usage of fourteen introduced cultivated grasses that are worthy of practical consideration in Nebraska. Most of them can easily be identified by comparing plant specimens with the illustrations and descriptions. This circular has been prepared for use by farmers, county agricultural agents, teachers and others who are interested in our most important grasses. Station Circular 59 contains information and illustrations of the more common native perennial grasses of Nebraska.

A Serological Technique For Gastropod Taxonomy, James N. Cather

Field and Laboratory

Serological techniques have been used in systematic studies for about fifty years. At first their use was confined to those groups of animals offering plentiful supplies of blood, since blood was the tissue most widely used. Recent modifications that employ other tissues have now made possible similar study of groups of smaller animals.

Reproduction In The Wolverine, Gulo Gulo, Philip L. Wright, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

The reproductive habits of the wolverine, largest of the terrestrial mustelids, have remained largely unknown. Recently Rausch (1953) has concluded that the American and European wolverines belong to the same species (Gulo gulo). In this paper, the reproduction of this species is investigated.
