Distinguishing Metabolic Heat from Condensation Heat during Muscle Recovery
Lou, Fang; Curtin, N.A.; Woledge, R.C. (1998)When a thermopile is used to measure the heat production of isolated muscle, the muscle is surrounded by gas saturated with water vapour, initially in equilibrium with the muscle. After contraction, the osmolarity of the ... -

Diversity and distribution of epiphytic bryophytes on Bramley's Seedling trees in East of England apple orchards.
Whitelaw, M.; Burton, Agneta (2015-07)Epiphytic bryophytes on apple trees were investigated in relation to a selection of tree characteristics. Management of orchard trees for fruit production affects the habitats available for colonisation and growth of ... -
Diversity and partial characterization of putative virulence determinants in Pasteuria penetrans, the hyperparasitic bacterium of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.)
Davies, Keith; Redden, M. (1997-08)Antigens recognized by monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) raised to the surface of the obligate nematode hyperparasite Pasteuria penetrans were characterized. Using the attachment of spores of the bacterium to host nematodes to ... -
The diversity in the vanilloid receptor family of ion channels
Gunthorpe, M.J.; Benham, C.D.; Randall, A.D.; Davis, J.B. (2002) -
Diversity of Burkholderia isolates from woodland rhizosphere environments
Richardson, J.; Stead, D.E.; Elphinstone, J.G.; Coutts, Robert H.A. (2002-10)Aims: Determination of genetic diversity among UK Burkholderia cepacia isolates from various environmental niches, principally woodland tree rhizospheres and onions. Methods and Results: Genus determination was made using ... -
Diversity of Fusarium species isolated from soil cultivated with cucurbits within East Coast, Peninsular Malaysia.
Sidique, Siti Nordahliawate; Zainuddin, Nur Ain Izzati; Azhari, Nur Azlin; Salleh, Baharuddin (2012)Fungi in the genus Fusarium are well known as soil-borne pathogen with worldwide distribution. Therefore, this study focused on isolation of Fusarium species from soil cultivated with watermelons, muskmelon, pumpkins, and ... -
Diversity of the bacterial hyperparasite Pasteuria penetrans in relation to root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) control on Acacia holosericea
Duponnois, R.; Fargette, M.; Fould, S.; Thioulouse, J.; Davies, Keith (2000)Pasteuria penetrans isolates sampled from different geographical areas were characterised both for the heterogeneity of the endospore surface using monoclonal antibodies and for the ability of spores to attach to different ... -
DNA and RNA polymerase activities of nuclei and hypotonic extracts of nuclei isolated from tomato golden mosaic virus infected tobacco leaves
Coutts, Robert H.A.; Buck, K.W. (1985-11-11)Nuclei and hypotonically leached extracts of nuclei prepared from tomato golden mosaic virus (TGMV)-infected Nicotiana benthamiana leaves have been used in in vitro DNA and RNA polymerisation reactions. The synthesis of ... -

Do small farmers’ achievements contradict the nutrient depletion scenarios for Africa?
Mortimore, Michael; Harris, Frances (2005-01-01)The dominant narrative of soil degradation in sub-Saharan Africa, as expressed in global surveys and policy documents, is compared with long-term data on the productive performance of smallholder farming systems under ... -
Does formal coach education work?
Turner, David (2008)Definitions of formal coach education tend to vary in the now considerable literature related to coach learning and development (Nelson, Cushion, & Potrac, 2006). But we will take it to refer to large-scale programmes ... -
Does genotype and equol-production status affect response to isoflavones? : Data from a pan-European study on the effects of isoflavones on cardiovascular risk markers in post-menopausal women
Vafeiadou, Katerina; Hall, Wendy L.; Williams, Christine M. (2006-02)The increase in CVD incidence following the menopause is associated with oestrogen loss. Dietary isoflavones are thought to be cardioprotective via their oestrogenic and oestrogen receptor-independent effects, but evidence ... -
