Variation in Performance on cry1Ab-Transformed and Nontransgenic Rice Varieties Among Populations of Scirpophaga incertulas (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) from Luzon Island, Philippines
Download2000
Gould, F., Bentur, J. S., Cohen, M. B.
Abstract: We quantified variation in performance under greenhouse conditions among seven populations of Scirpophaga incertulas (Walker) from Luzon Island, Philippines, on three rice varieties: 'IR58' transformed with the cry1Ab gene from Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner, and nontransgenic IR58 and...

Variation in premaxillary tooth count and a developmental abnormality in a tyrannosaurid dinosaur
Download2010
Tanke, D. H., Currie, P. J., Miyashita, T.
Premaxillary tooth count tends to be stable amongst toothed dinosaurs, and most theropods have four teeth in each premaxilla. Only one case of bilaterally asymmetric variation is known in theropod premaxillary dentition, and there is no record of ontogenetic or individual variation in...

Vegetative Growth of Decodon allenbyensis (Lythraceae) from the Middle Eocene Princeton Chert with Anatomical Comparisons to Decodon verticillatus.
Download2003
Large numbers of roots and stems of aquatic Lythraceae have been found in association with fruits and seeds of Decodon allenbyensis Cevallos-Ferriz et Stockey in the Princeton chert, British Columbia, Canada. The permineralized fossils come from layer 43 in the chert, part of the Middle Eocene,...

Vegetative Growth of Eorhiza arnoldii Robison and Person from the Middle Eocene Princeton Chert Locality of British Columbia.
Download1994
Anatomical studies of several thousand specimens of Eorhiza arnoldii Robison and Person rhizomes and their attached organs have added significantly to our knowledge of these Middle Eocene, semiaquatic dicotyledonous plants from the Princeton chert. Anatomical structure of Eorhiza was studied...

Visual pigment composition in zebrafish: Evidence for a rhodopsin-porphyropsin interchange system
Download2004
Temple, S. E., Allison, W. T., Haimberger, T. J., Hawryshyn, C. W.
Abstract: Numerous reports have concluded that zebrafish (Danio rerio) possesses A(1)-based visual pigments in their rod and cone photoreceptors. In the present study, we investigated the possibility that zebrafish have a paired visual pigment system. We measured the spectral absorption...

Visualization of dynein-dependent microtubule gliding at the cell cortex: implications for spindle positioning
Download2011
Dynein motors move along the microtubule (MT) lattice in a processive “walking” manner. In the one-cell Caenorhabditis elegans embryo, dynein is required for spindle-pulling forces during mitosis. Posteriorly directed spindle-pulling forces are higher than anteriorly directed forces, and this...

Background: The family of voltage-gated potassium channels comprises a functionally diverse group of membrane proteins. They help maintain and regulate the potassium ion-based component of the membrane potential and are thus central to many critical physiological processes. VKCDB (Voltage-gated...

2007
The process of nonindigenous species (NIS) arrival has received limited theoretical consideration despite importance in predicting and preventing the establishment of NIS. We formulate a mechanistically based hierarchical model of NIS arrival and demonstrate simplifications leading to a marginal...
