Bioenergetic consequences of alopecia induced by Dermacentor albipictus (Acari: Ixodidae) on moose
Download1990
Welch, D.A., Hudson, R.J., Samuel, W.M.
Fasting metabolic rates, respiration rates, respiratory minute volumes, and fasted weights were measured on three yearling moose (Alces alces (L.)) (Artiodactyla: Cervidae) infested with 50,000 winter ticks, Dermacentor albipictus (Packard) (Acari: Ixodidae), and on two uninfested controls....

Biogenesis of Porin of the Outer Mitochondrial Membrane Involves an Import Pathway via Receptors and the General Import Pore of the TOM Complex
Download2001
Nargang, F. E., Pfanner, N., Neupert, W., Blachly-Dyson, E., Forte, M., Krimmer, T., Ryan, M. T., Kassenbrock, K., Rapaport, D., Douglas, M. G., Meisinger, C.
Abstract: Porin, also termed the voltage-dependent anion channel, is the most abundant protein of the mitochondrial outer membrane. The process of import and assembly of the protein is known to be dependent on the surface receptor Tom20, but the requirement for other mitochondrial proteins...

Bao, Hua, Schroyen, Martine, Rowland, Robert R.R., Guan, Le L., Stothard, Paul, Reecy, James M., Fritz-Waters, Eric, Koltes, James E., Kommadath, Arun, Plastow, Graham S., Eisley, Christopher, Tuggle, Christopher K. , Dekkers, Jack C.M., Lunney, Joan K., Choi, Igseo
Background A region on Sus scrofa chromosome 4 (SSC4) surrounding single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker WUR10000125 (WUR) has been reported to be strongly associated with both weight gain and serum viremia in pigs after infection with PRRS virus (PRRSV). A proposed causal mutation in the...

Whitehouse, C. M., Evenden, M. L., Sperling, F. A. H., Strong, W. B., Roe, A. D.
Abstract: Coneworms, Dioryctria Zeller (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), are destructive pests of conifers across North America, and members of several different species groups present significant pest-management challenges in conifer seed orchards. Dioryctria abietivorella Grote (abietella group) is the...

Biomonitoring and elimination of Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) and Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) through perspiration: Blood, Urine, and Sweat (BUS) Study.
Download2013
Genuis, S.J., Birkholz, D., Beesoon, S.
Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) are man-made organofluorine chemicals manufactured and marketed for their stain-resistant properties. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are anthropogenic organochlorine compounds previously used in various industrial and chemical applications prior to being banned...
