Characterisation of pasteuria isolated from Heterodera cajani using morphology, pathology and serology of endospores
(1996-03)
Pasteuria spp. are potentially useful natural parasites of nematodes. An isolate of Pasteuria, recovered from the pigeonpea cyst nematode, Heterodera cajani, was characterised using host range, spore morphometrics, and ...
Influence of soyabean meal supplementation on the resistance of Scottish Blackface lambs to haemonchosis
(1996-03)
Protein supplementation improves the resistance of sheep to haemonchosis. This experiment investigated the Scottish blackface breed to establish whether dietary protein supplementation is still beneficial in a genetically ...
Environmental sustainability or commercial viability? : The evolution of the EC regulation on genetically modified foods
(1996-03)
In October 1995 the Council of Ministers of the European Community finally agreed a common position on a regulation on novel foods and food ingredients. Environmental, organic agricultural and consumer and health concerns ...
3C 279 Multiwavelength Monitoring II : The Ground-based Campaign
(1996-03-01)
The optically violently variable quasar 3C 279 was monitored simultaneously from radio to y-ray frequencies in 1992 December-1993 January. We report a detailed study of the ground-based results from radio to optical ...
Oilseed rape : disease development, forecasting and yield loss relationships
(HGCA, 1996-02)
A series of fourteen replicated plot scale experiments was established between 1991 and 1994 to determine the effect of disease on the yield of winter oilseed rape and the economic threshold and optimum fungicide timings ...
Comparison of somatodendritic and axon terminal dopamine release in the ventral tegmental area and the nucleus accumbens
(1996-02)
Fast cyclic voltammetry at a carbon fibre microelectrode was used to measure dopamine release following electrical or chemical stimulation in rat brain slices incorporating either the ventral tegmental area or the core ...
Environmental Management in Agriculture : An expert system approach
(1996-02)
The development of quantitative measures for self-assessment of the environmental performance of farming enterprises is described. A rule-based expert system approach is adopted based on well established sources of guidance. ...
Use of neural networks in brain SPECT to diagnose Alzheimer's disease
(1996-02)
The usefulness of artificial neural networks in the classification of Tc-99m-HMPAO SPECT axial brain scans was investigated in a study group of Alzheimer's disease patients and age-matched normal subjects. Methods: The ...
Unchained memory: Error patterns rule out chaining models of immediate serial recall
(1996-02)
Many models of serial recall assume a chaining mechanism whereby each item associatively evokes the next in sequence. Chaining predicts that, when sequences comprise alternating confusable and non-confusable items, confusable ...
