How To Reseed Utah Range Lands, A. Perry Plummer, Richard M. Hurd, C. Kenneth Pearse

Aspen Bibliography

Additional low cost forage is urgently needed by Utah's range livestock industry. Seeding of depleted tracts in accordance with recently developed methods and principles will help supply this forage and is entirely feasible. Where the value of the increased forage will repay the cost of planting, careful reseeding of selected sites is fully justified.

The important part that reseeding can play in restoring ranges to their former capacity has been demonstrated. Although satisfactory results can be obtained on many sites during average or better years, much more study is needed to insure consistent success in abnormal years and to extend …

An Experimental Attempt To Modify The Sex Ratio Of Drosophila Melanogaster, Herman Weingrod

Bachelors’ Theses

Sex control has been defined as the science of producing male or female offspring at will by artificial means. Because of the far reaching consequences of such a technique, man has always had a strong desire to control the sex of his offspring. The ancient Egyptians attempted it by means of magic, while the old Hebrew Talmud offered suggestions for its practice based on practical experience. The problem as such forms part of the folklore and superstition of many ancient races and peoples.

Heterochromia Iridis From The Genetical Viewpoint, Richard Charles Suehr

Bachelors’ Theses

It is intended in this paper to present the published data obtainable; to report original data; to analize this data; and to try to establish some law of heredity by which the phenomenon of Heterochromia Iridis is transmitted from generation to generation.

Weather And Plant-Development Data As Determinants Of Grazing Periods On Mountain Range, David F. Costello, Raymond Price

Aspen Bibliography

Fundamental in economical range-resource management is the determination of proper grazing periods. It is of prime importance to be able to establish a date in the spring when the range has produced sufficient feed to keep livestock in thrifty condition, when it is reasonably safe from excessive trampling and packing of the soil, and when the more important key forage plants have attained sufficient development to withstand grazing use. Such opening dates, as well as the time to defer and rotate grazing and to remove livestock from the range, are dependent in part on the prevailing weather conditions and on …

Grazing Periods And Forage Production On The National Forests, Arthur W. Sampson, Harry E. Malmsten

Aspen Bibliography

Stockmen in the West have always had confidence in the adequacy of the native forage crop to provide pasturage for their livestock. Indeed, under normal climatic conditions this enormous natural resource has not failed the grazier, except where it has been called upon to meet unreasonable demands. The productivity of the range has declined sharply, however, wherever the requirements of plant growth have been disregarded for many years in succession. Where there has been too early or too frequent and to heavy grazing, undue trampling, or some other unsatisfactory feature of range use, the results have been uniformly bad. Many …

Bulletin 118 - Pigs And Pig Raising, P. G. Hampshire

Bulletins 1 - 2999

The importance of the development of pig-raising as one of the primary industries of Western Australia cannot be too greatly stressed.

In Western Australia we have a deficiency in production of bacon and hams equal nearly £200.00 per annum. When this exceedingly profitable market has been satisfied, export markets are geographically very favourable to Western Australia pig raisers as compared to the rest of Australia.

Climate And Plant Growth In Certain Vegetative Associations, Arthur W. Sampson

Aspen Bibliography

The relation of climate to the growth and development of vegetation is of profound importance in both practical and experimental agriculture. It is extremely useful to know the cause of successful growth and establishment, or of partial success or failure, of various species in different plant associations and under widely contrasted climatic conditions. The climatic requirements of various plant types are largely responsible for the results obtained in the case of experimental seedings and plantings of most species. Once the adverse climatic factors are definitely known, failures with plants may be largely avoided by the judicious selection of sites or …

The Eatonia newsletter is named after Rev. Alfred E. Eaton who studied mayflies in England in the late 1800’s and is considered the “father” of the modern classification of mayflies.

Replicating Single-Cycle Adenovirus Vectors Generate Amplified Influenza Vaccine Responses, Catherine M. Crosby, William E. Matchett, Stephanie S. Anguiano-Zarate, Christopher A. Parks, Eric A. Weaver, Larry R. Pease, Richard J. Webby, Michael A. Barry

Nebraska Center for Virology: Faculty Publications

Head-to-head comparisons of conventional influenza vaccines with adenovirus (Ad) gene-based vaccines demonstrated that these viral vectors can mediate more potent protection against influenza virus infection in animal models. In most cases, Ad vaccines are engineered to be replication-defective (RD-Ad) vectors. In contrast, replication-competent Ad (RC-Ad) vaccines are markedly more potent but risk causing adenovirus diseases in vaccine recipients and health care workers. To harness antigen gene replication but avoid production of infectious virions, we developed “single-cycle” adenovirus (SC-Ad) vectors. Previous work demonstrated that SC-Ads amplify transgene expression 100-fold and produce markedly stronger and more persistent immune responses than RD-Ad vectors …
