Intercellular Communication In Plants: Evidence For A Rapidly Generated, Bidirectionally Transmitted Wound Signal, Eric Davies, Anne Schuster

School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications

Wounding (whether by excision, abrasion, or puncture) elicited rapid, massive, and enduring formation of polysomes in aged pea stems and other mature tissues. The response depended on temperature and severity of wounding but not on water uptake, and it occurred in tissues adjacent to, distant from, above, and below the site of injury. The kinetics of polysome formation were similar in tissues adjacent to or up to 150 mm distant from the point of injury. The wound-induced increases in proteinsynthesizing capacity of the polysomes both in vivo and in vitro were much greater than the increases in rRNA and poly(A) …

Public Trials And A First Amendment Right Of Access: A Presumption Of Openness: Richmond Newspapers, Inc. V. Virginia, 100 S. Ct. 2814 (1980), Robert F. Copple

Nebraska Law Review

The first amendment freedoms of speech and press, and the sixth amendment right to a fair trial are considered to occupy a special place in the constitutional hierarchy. When these rights collide, rarely is the resulting fair trial–free press conflict easily resolved. In Gannett Co. v. DePasquale, the Supreme Court added one more facet to the conflict by holding that the sixth amendment right to a public trial was personal to the accused, and that the public trial right did not confer upon the public a right of access to pretrial suppression hearings. The Court's ambiguous opinion was viewed …

Ratoon Stunting Disease Of Sugarcane: Isolation Of The Causal Bacterium, Michael J. Davis, A. Graves Gillaspie, Russell W. Harris, Roger H. Lawson

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

A small coryneform bacterium was consistently isolated from sugarcane with ratoon stunting disease and shown to be the causal agent. A similar bacterium was isolated from Bermuda grass. Both strains multiplied in sugarcane and Bermuda grass, but the Bermuda grass strain did not incite the symptoms of ratoon stunting disease in sugarcane. Shoot growth in Bermuda grass was retarded by both strains.

Growth Of Enterobacter Cloacae In The Presence Of 25% Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate, Vance C. Kramer, Diane M. Calabrese, Kenneth W. Nickerson

Papers in Microbiology

The growth of Enterobacter cloacae in 25% sodium dodecyl sulfate is described. The bacteria appeared to tolerate sodium dodecyl sulfate rather than metabolize it. The process was energy dependent, and cell lysis occurred during stationary phase. Extreme detergent resistance may be characteristic of the genus Enterobacter.

Epizootic Of Coccidiosis In Free-Flying Lesser Scaup, R. M. Windingstad, M. E. Mcdonald, L. N. Locke, S. M. Kerr, J. A. Sinn

Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: Staff Research Publications

A coccidiosis epizootic has occurred in lesser scaup (Aythsa affinis) at Bluestem Reservoir in eastern Nebraska during the spring in each of three recent years: 1976-1978. Losses peaked during the period from mid-March through April. As much as 29 % of the peak population of scaup using the reservoir died. Necropsies of 72 of the nearly 1390 scaup that died revealed destruction and sloughing of the intestinal mucosa and associated hemorrhaging. Fibrinonecrotic cores were frequently found in the intestinal lumens. Scrapings from the intestinal mucosal contained massive numbers of oocysts of the coccidian Eimeria aythyae. This is …

The Beef Delivery System: Optimal Plant Sizes, Locations And Product Flows, J. C. Hafer, J. G. Kendrick

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

The United States beef delivery system is composed of three stages: procurement, processing, and distribution. Minimization of costs associated with these stages can be accomplished best by identification of optimal plant sizes and locations. Research was directed toward an analytical approach that could be used to minimize total costs of the U.S. beef delivery system. This report will discuss the grid system used to divide the · United States into study units, describe features of the model used, discuss research results, and offer conclusions.

Focusing Faculty Development: Targeting, John Sharpham, Lanny Morreau

POD Quarterly: The Journal of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education

Faculty development programs usually provide a variety of services for interested faculty. Much of what is provided is stressed as a service, available on a walk-in, voluntary basis, and tends to be focused on the university faculty as a whole. This approach requires the faculty to be initiators, asking them to avail themselves of the services available, and therefore supports active, self-motivated teachers. Centra's findings on faculty development practices underlined this when he identified "... teachers who wanted to get better" as the group "most involved, while those needed improvement were seen as least involved" (1976, p. 29).

Using A Content / Behavior Matrix In The Instructional Planning Process, Michael Koffman

POD Quarterly: The Journal of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education

Instruction is more likely to be successful when the instructor is clear about his/her goals. Upon this axiom, a large number of instructional practices are based. One derivative of this axiom is the following: instruction is more likely to be efficient and effective when the instructor can state his/her instructional goals in clear behavioral objectives. To further clarify the instructor's goals, one might undertake a task analysis, job analysis, content analysis, an analysis of competencies, a needs analysis and/or a learning hierarchy. The results of such "front-end" analyses are usually displayed in the form of page after page of goals, …

"Blinding" Of Shoots And A Leaf Gall In Amsinckia Intermedia Induced By Anguina Amsinckia (Steiner And Scott, 1934) (Nemata, Tylenchidae), With A Note On The Absence Of A Rachis In A. Amsinckia, C. Nagamine, Armarnd R. Maggenti

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

"Blinding" and a leaf gall induced on Amsinckia intermedia Fisch. and Mey. by Anguina amsinckia (Steiner and Scott) are described. A. amsinckia induced blinding by galling the terminal apical meristem of its host. The leaf gall was formed by a ventral curling of the distal edge of the leaf. The absence of a rachis in the ovary of A. amsinckia is noted.

Environmental Manipulation In Roof Rat Control Programs, Gene Zdunowski

Vertebrate Pest Conference Proceedings: 9th (1980)

The control of roof rat Rattus rattus involves not just chemical and physical suppression, exclusion, and sanitation in an integrated environmental manipulation approach, but in order for the environmental manipulative technique to work, the environmental-behavioral habits of the individuals living in these roof rat infested areas must be modified. Once a target area of known rodent infestation has been initially impacted and environmentally improved upon, the task by the homeowner to continue to practice environmental manipulation must be ongoing. Continued maintenance of the environmentally improved area by staff knowledgeable in environmental manipulation and behavioral modification is the only way to …

The Need For Good Public Relations And Staff Training In The Use Of Toxins In Pest Destruction, Peter C. Nelson

Vertebrate Pest Conference Proceedings: 9th (1980)

With ever-increasing environmental pressures being placed on all animal control agencies worldwide, particularly those utilizing toxins as control weapons, the time has arisen where those agencies must attempt to anticipate these pressures which are likely to become more vocal and counter them wherever possible before they happen. It is an accepted fact that the world as a whole has become extremely environmental conscious in all fields, not just pest control. This can be seen or heard most days of the week in newspapers, on television or radio. The reasons for this awareness of the environmental problem are wide and diverse …

Exploring The Cultural Content Of French Feature Films, Thomas M. Carr Jr.

French Language and Literature Papers

Of the many forms of realia at the disposal of the French teacher, the feature film can be the most engaging and rewarding. Nothing holds students' attention quite like a movie or gives them as vivid an experience of France, short of going abroad. Moreover, movies can furnish glimpses of milieus and personalities the average tourist or student rarely encounters. Instructors have been quick to make use of this potential in the classroom. In literature courses the movie version of a play or novel is compared with the original text. In civilization classes films are used along with supplemental readings …

Legal Restrictions On Foreign Languages In The Great Plains States, 1917-1923, Frederick C. Luebke

Department of History: Faculty Publications

A major effect of World War I on American social history was that it focused attention on the nation's apparent difficulty in assimilating the millions of immigrants and their children who had streamed to the United States during the preceding two decades. The national mood, darkened by fears and resentments of long standing and deepened by systematic wartime propaganda, favored the adoption of stringent laws limiting the use of foreign languages, especially in the schools. During the war itself, restrictions were usually extralegal and often the consequences of intense social pressure recklessly applied. After the war, however, many state legislatures …

The Editor And Word Processing Equipment, Larry I. Bland

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

The nature of the editor's task frequently forces her to acquire greater knowledge of book production than the normal author, who gladly relinquishes technical worries to the publisher's staff. Necessity is frequently the chief motivating factor and osmosis the method in the editor's acquisition of this esoteric knowledge. Not surprisingly, given the financial resources involved, editors in the commercial sector have been quicker to adopt the latest technology to their tasks than have editors in the low-budget, subsidized, money-losing academic sector. The documentary editor, if she or he hopes _somehow to cope with income evaporation and cost inflation, must familiarize …
