Annual variation in wild rice (Zizania palustris L.) in Saskatchewan; growth and potential yield
Download1989
Sutherland, J. M., Archibold, O. W., Good, A. G.
Mature wild rice plants collected from 20 sites across northern Saskatchewan over the period 1984-1987 were measured for various morphological traits. Considerable regional variation was noted for factors such as stem length, degree of tillering and seed production with plants in the west being...

Antimicrobial activity in the egg wax of the African cattle tick Amblyomma hebraeum (Acari: Ixodidae)
Download2006
Arrieta, M. C., Leskiw, B. K., Kaufman, W. R.
Abstract: Eggs of the tick Amblyomma hebraeum Koch (Acari: Ixodidae) inhibited the growth of Escherichia coli and Serratia marcescens (Gram-negative bacteria) in solid culture, but not the growth of Staphylococcus epidermidis, and only marginally the growth of Bacillus subtilis (Gram-positive...

Yu, Z., Liu, J., Kaufman, W. R., Thomson, E. L. S., Dennis, J. J., Jacobs, R. L.
Abstract: Untreated eggs of the tick Amblyomma hebraeum Koch (Acari: Ixodidae) exhibited antimicrobial activity (AMA) against Gram-negative but not Gram-positive bacteria; eggs denuded of wax by solvent extraction showed no AMA. The unfractionated egg wax extract, however, showed AMA against...
