Delineating Management Zones for Site Specific Fertilization in Wild Blueberry Fields
(2012-01)The concept of management zones has been proposed as a solution to the problems associated with the soil variability to more efficiently apply agricultural inputs on a site-specific basis. This study was designed to ... -
Detecting Bare Spots in Wild Blueberry Fields using Digital Color Photography
(2010-09)Wild blueberry fields are developed from native stands on deforested land by removing competing vegetation The majority of fields are situated in naturally acidic and non-fertile sods that have high proportions of bare ... -

Effect of Nitrate and Acetylene on nirS, cnorB, and nosZ Expression and Denitrification Activity in Pseudomonas mandelii
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009-08)Nitrate acts as an electron acceptor in the denitrification process. The effect of nitrate in the range of 0 to 1,000 mg/liter on Pseudomonas mandelii nirS, cnorB, and nosZ gene expression was studied, using quantitative ... -
Effect of pH and Temperature on Denitrification Gene Expression and Activity in Pseudomonas mandelii
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009-06)Pseudomonas mandelii liquid cultures were studied to determine the effect of pH and temperature on denitrification gene expression, which was quantified by quantitative reverse transcription-PCR. Denitrification was ... -
Emergent Properties of Patch Shapes Affect Edge Permeability to Animals
(2011-07)Animal travel between habitat patches affects populations, communities and ecosystems. There are three levels of organization of edge properties, and each of these can affect animals. At the lowest level are the different ... -
Genetic variability at seven codons of the prion protein gene in nine Pakistani sheep breeds

LINKFLOW, a water flow computer model for water table management: Part 2. Model verification
(1997-12)A computer simulation model, LINKFLOW, was developed (Havard et al., 1995) to simulate the movement of water during various water table management practices. This article described the validation of the linked saturated- ... -
Linkflow, a Water-Flow Computer-Model for Water-Table Management .1. Model Development
(1995-03)A computer simulation model, LINKFLOW, was developed to calculate the movement of water during various water table management practices, namely subsurface drainage, controlled drainage, and subirrigation. The model can ... -
Liuwei Dihuang (LWDH), a Traditional Chinese Medicinal Formula, Protects against beta-Amyloid Toxicity in Transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans
(2012-08)Liuwei Dihuang (LWDH), a classic Chinese medicinal formula, has been used to improve or restore declined functions related to aging and geriatric diseases, such as impaired mobility, vision, hearing, cognition and ... -
Manifestations of Fasting-Induced Fatty Liver and Rapid Recovery from Steatosis in Voles Fed Lard or Flaxseed Oil Lipids
(2013-10)Long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) can have beneficial effects against fat deposition, cardiovascular diseases, and liver steatosis. We investigated how diets based on lard (predominantly saturated and ... -

Nitric Oxide Reductase Gene Expression and Nitrous Oxide Production in Nitrate-Grown Pseudomonas mandelii
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008-11)Pure cultures of Pseudomonas mandelii were incubated with or without nitrate, which acts as a substrate and an electron acceptor for denitrification. Nitric oxide reductase (cnorB) gene expression was measured using a ... -
Nitric oxide reductase-targeted real-time PCR quantification of denitrifier populations in soil
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007-07)The quantification of denitrifying bacteria is a component in the further understanding of denitrification processes in the environment. Real-time PCR primers were designed to target two segments of the denitrifier ... -
An Observation and Analysis of IPTV and Multicasting Traffic
(2011-09-30)IPTV is the short form of Internet protocol television. It’s the technology that allows us to get television services via internet protocol over computer networks instead of the traditional cable TV medium. The multicasting ...
