The Effect Of Chemical Adjuvants Of The Survival Of The Free-Living Stages Of The Gastrointestinal Nematode, Haemonchus Contortus, Anthony T. Chang
Theses and Dissertations
Considerable research has been done on the influence of various chemical adjuvants, such as glycerol and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) on the survival of protozoan organisms. (Levine and Marquardt, 1955; Levine, Mizell and Houlahan, 1958; Levine, et al. 1962; Levine and Andersen, 1965, 1966; Fitzgerald and Levine 1957 1 1961; Diamond, 1964). Considerably less work has been done on metazoan parasites. The effects of various chemical adjuvants on the survival of Haemonchus contortus, the large stomach worm of sheep, at extremely low temperatures has not been reported. The purpose of this research was to determine if different concentrations of chemical adjuvants …
Surface Characteristics Of Conidia From Monosporous Cultures Of Penicillium Digitatum And Aspergillus Nidulans Var. Echinulatus, Raymond Kunito Fuji
Surface Characteristics Of Conidia From Monosporous Cultures Of Penicillium Digitatum And Aspergillus Nidulans Var. Echinulatus, Raymond Kunito Fuji
Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the possible taxonomic significance of the "rodlet" patterns and spore wall configurations of conidia from monosporous cultures of Penicillium digitatum Saccardo and Aspergillus nidulans Eidam var. echinulatus Fennell & Raper. Freeze-etching the conidiospores from single spore isolates of these fungi revealed that spore wall patterns and configurations vary much too greatly to be of taxonomic importance on the strain and subspecies level. Environmental factors and genetic influences are discussed as possible mechanisms causing the variations of the spore wall configurations. A membrane-like structure that covers the "rodlet" patterns and which hinders spore …
A Study Of Folic Acid Dependent Reactions In Bovine Brain, Dillard Spencer Broderick
A Study Of Folic Acid Dependent Reactions In Bovine Brain, Dillard Spencer Broderick
Theses and Dissertations
The enzymatic interconversion of serine to glycine and N5, N10-methylene tetrahydrofolate to N5 -methyl tetrahydrofolate have been studied in a cell-free system derived from bovine brain. A partial purification of serine transhydroxymethylase and N5, N10 -methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase has been achieved by ammonium sulfate fractionation, protamine sulfate fraction, and by various column chromatography procedures. The two enzymes studied catalyze sequentially the reductive transfer of the hydroxymethyl group of serine to the N5 position of tetrahydrofolate forming N5 -methyl tetrahydrofolate. The products of these reactions were assayed by the incorporation of C14 from a one-carbon precursor i.e., L-beta-(C14)-serine, or N5 -methyl …

Phylogenetic Relationships Of Purshia Tridentata And Cowania Mexicana, Stewart C. Sanderson
Phylogenetic Relationships Of Purshia Tridentata And Cowania Mexicana, Stewart C. Sanderson
Theses and Dissertations
Because of the greatly increased supply of genetic variation which it provides, introgression is of great importance in determining both the rate and the direction of evolution. Hybridization between the genera Cowania and Purshia provides an excellent model for demonstrating the various products which might be expected from introgression. The present study is an attempt to further investigate phylogenetic relationships of Cowania mexicana and Purshia tridentata by use of cytological and biochemical techniques.
The Identification Of A Germination Factor For Basidiospores Of Psilocybe Mutans, Neal K. Van Alfen
The Identification Of A Germination Factor For Basidiospores Of Psilocybe Mutans, Neal K. Van Alfen
Theses and Dissertations
Basidiospores of the Basidiomycete Psilocybe mutans have been found to germinate only in the presence of water extracts of animal dung. The chemical nature of the factor present in the dung that induces germination is not known, nor has it ever been isolated· Experiments showed that extracts of bile salts cause the basidiospores to germinate, indicating that since bile salts are found in dung, they may be the factor which stimulates the spores to germinate. Investigations of the properties of the factor in dung show that the factor has solubility properties that are similar to those of the bile acids. …
Inhibition Of Asexual Reproduction In Planaria, Lewis Hafen Leavitt
Inhibition Of Asexual Reproduction In Planaria, Lewis Hafen Leavitt
Theses and Dissertations
Asexual reproduction in the decapitated planaria, Dugesia dorotocephala, is inhibited by an extract of homogenized heads of the same or closely-related species. Decapitated planaria allowed to regenerate have reproduced asexually over 80% of the time, while those that have been cultured in a suspension of head homogenate have had asexual reproduction inhibited to less than 10%. The substance that inhibits asexual reproduction is heat labile. It requires a concentration of 2.0 heads/ml that contains .13 mg protein/ml to effectively inhibit asexual reproduction. A similar concentration of head homogenate from the related planaria, Dugesia tigrina, also contains the inhibitory substance. Head …

Factors Influencing Production Of Flower Stalks In Agropyron Cristatum (L.) Gaertn, Neil C. Frischknecht
Factors Influencing Production Of Flower Stalks In Agropyron Cristatum (L.) Gaertn, Neil C. Frischknecht
Theses and Dissertations
A study was made of factors that influence production of different numbers of flower stalks of crested wheatgrass on grazed and ungrazed areas. Both laboratory and field studies were made. Greatest response in flower stalk production resulted from application of nitrogen in the field, amounting to an increase of from 5 to 10 times the numbers of flower stalks on untreated areas. Responses of plants in the greenhouse supported these results. Plants grown in the dark indicated that higher carbohydrate reserves existed in ungrazed than in grazed plants. It was concluded that a high carbohydrate-low nitrogen balance was the primary …
