- Abstract:
- ... Techniques available for assessing the tolerance of plants to heavy metal toxins are reviewed. All are based on physiological responses and range from long-term growth trials in metal-contaminated substrates, to rapid cytological tests. Problems associated with the ecophysiological interpretation of in vitro measurements of tolerance are considered. The implications of multiple tolerance, co-toler ...

This report describes a rapid, inexpensive and completely portable approach for controlling and identifying camera position when making repeated video recordings from minirhizotrons in large field experiments. These registration handle and micr ...

- Abstract:
- ... We cloned and characterized a new highly repetitive, species-specific DNA sequence from turkey (Meleagris gallopavo). This repeat family, which accounts for approximately 5% of the turkey genome, consists of a 41 bp repeated element that is present in tandem arrays longer than 23 kb. In situ hybridization to turkey metaphase chromosomes (2n = 80) demonstrated that this sequence was located primari ...

The total number of chromosome-sized DNA molecules varied from six to nine, depending on the species. The sizes of chromosomes ranged from 0.4 to approximately 6.5 Mb which gave estimates of genome size of between 27.0 and 29.9 Mb. When fractionated chrom ...

- Abstract:
- ... Nickel/cobalt, as well as platinum and palladium metal family members are recovered from soil by growing Brassicaceae plants, specifically Alyssum in soil containing nickel/cobalt as well as other metals. The soil is conditioned by maintaining a low pH, low calcium concentration, and the addition of ammonium fertilizer and chelating agents thereto. Nickel accumulation on the order of 2.5 percent o ...

- Abstract:
- ... The present paper studies the relationship between laboratory‐ and field—based survival
data of beetle larvae sprayed with either dimethoate or cypermethrin. The comparison for
dimethoate was based on an earlier constructed pesticide—effect model derived from greenhouse
data. To predict field effects, the model was supplied with field data for temperatures, the
insecticide ...

- Abstract:
- ... A toxicokinetics—based, temperature—dependent survival model for growing animals with
oral uptake of toxicants is used to analyze the results of two pesticide bioassays. With this
approach, we aim at simultaneously addressing two complementary goals of pesticide bioassays,
namely to assess species sensitivity and to elucidate underlying mechanisms of toxic effects.
As test ...

- Abstract:
- ... Because biomass is a widely available, renewable resource, its utilisation for the production of energy has great potential for reducing CO(2) emissions and thereby preventing global warming. In this mini-review the 'state of the art' of several fermentation processes is discussed, starting with the most advanced process of ethanol production. This is followed by methane production, an established ...
