A rain tower and wind tunnel for studying the dispersal of plant pathogens by rain and wind
(1986-12)
The rain tower/wind tunnel complex at Rothamsted consists of a rain tower (height 11 m, cross-section 1 m2) linked to the upwind end of a wind tunnel (length 12 m, cross-section 1 m2), which may be operated in either an ...
A high resolution hydrogen-line survey of Messier 31. III : H I holes in the interstellar medium
(1986-11-01)
An analysis is carried out of H I holes in M 31 as detected with the Westerbork radiotelescope. The holes range from 100-1000 pc across and represent missing masses ranging from 1000-10 million solar masses, which would ...
Molecular characterisation of subgenomic single-stranded and double-stranded DNA forms isolated from plants infected with tomato golden mosaic virus
(1986-10-01)
A subgenomic single-stranded DNA present in particles of the geminivirus, tomato golden mosaic virus, has been shown by electron microscope heteroduplex mapping and Southern hybridisation analysis to consist of circular ...
Factors affecting the germination of Septoria nodorum pycnidiospores
(1986-09)
Most pycnidiospores of Septoria nodorum were released from pycnidia into water in 30 min, more than 50% being released in 10 min. The viability of pycnidiospores in aqueous suspension, assessed by germination on a selective ...
The sequential development of type I and type II ostertagiasis in young cattle with special reference to biochemical and serological changes
(1986-08)
The sequential development of Type I and Type II ostertagiasis over a 2-year period in the same naturally infected cattle is described for the first time. Particular reference is made to biochemical and serological changes. ...
Effects of rainfall intensity and duration on dispersal of Rhynchosporium secalis conidia from infected barley leaves
(1986-06-30)
Simulated rain of two intensities was allowed to fall for 30 min on to barley leaves infected by Rhynchosporium secalis. The resulting splash droplets were collected on horizontal pieces of fixed photographic film. Most ...
Preferential association of apocytochrome c with negatively charged phospholipids in mixed model membranes
(1986-06-13)
The mitochondrial precursor protein, apocytochrome c, binds to model membranes containing negatively charged phospholipids (Rietveld, A., Sijens, R., Verkleij, A.J. and Kruijff, B. (1983) EMBO J. 2, 907-913). In the present ...
Women's views on keeping fetal movement charts
(1986-05)
This study reports the views of 132 women on filling in fetal movement charts during pregnancy. All appeared to have received an adequate explanation of how to fill in the chart. Although just over half the sample of women ...
Effects of irrigation and benomyl treatment on chocolate spot (Botrytis fabae) and yield of winter-sown field beans (Vicia faba)
(1986-03)
In 1976-7, 1977-8 and 1978-9 plots of winter-sown field beans, either irrigated in June and July or unirrigated, were treated with one or more sprays of benomyl or were untreated. The amounts of chocolate spot on field ...
