Abstract Exotic invasive plants are often subjected to attack from imported insects as a method of biological control. A fundamental, but rarely explicitly tested, assumption control is that damaged less fit and compete poorly. In contrast, we find one the most destructive in North America, Centaurea maculosa , exudes far higher amounts (±)‐catechin, an allelopathic chemical known have deleterious effects on native plants, when attacked by larvae two different root boring biocontrol...
BackgroundThe aim was to identify potential factors associated with acute corneal hydrops in a New Zealand population keratoconus referred hospital eye service.MethodsIn single centre, retrospective review, demographic and clinical features of subjects over 17‐year period were compared an age‐ gender‐matched control group but no history hydrops.ResultsOne hundred one eyes 101 (mean age 24.6 ± 8.4 years) identified keratoconus‐related hydrops. Subjects more likely be Pacific less European...
Gap junctions are intercellular channels that have been implicated in the pathogenesis of neuronal death after central nervous system injury. This study determines expression pattern gap junction protein connexin43 human retina and optic nerve.An affinity-isolated polyclonal antibody to C-terminal segment cytoplasmic domain was used determine localization. Postmortem eyes were examined by immunohistochemical staining frozen sections using antibodies connexin43. Antibody binding detected...

2K+ to K + K2+ and K3+ provide a reaction with net enthalpy equal one three times the potential energy of atomic hydrogen, respectively. The presence these gaseous ions or atoms thermally dissociated hydrogen formed so-called resonance transfer (rt)-plasma having strong VUV emission stationary inverted Lyman population. Significant line broadening Balmer , lines 18 eV was observed, compared 3–4 from microwave plasma. Emission rt-plasmas occurred even when electric field applied plasma zero....
Abstract Copolymers of styrene and butadiene the same chemical conposition, but widely different molecular weight distributions, were characterized by gel permeation chromatography. A very good correlation was obtained between logarithm Mooney viscosity geometric mean number‐ weight‐average weights. Instead this average, one can equally well use convenient “Av log M ,” which is a weight, using logarithmic scale. This makes it possible to predict from GPC data with precision about 15% (±...
Objective To determine the lowest effective dose of an estradiol (E2) matrix-type transdermal delivery system (EMTDS; Alora) for preventing bone loss in postmenopausal women. Design This double-blind, double-dummy, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter study enrolled 355 nonosteoporotic women who had been hysterectomized with or without oophorectomy at least 12 months earlier. Participants were randomly assigned to one three doses EMTDS (0.025, 0.05, 0.075 mg/day) placebo administered...
Abstract Metzneria paucipunctella Zeller is a seed head moth introduced for biological control of spotted knapweed, Centaurea maculosa Lamarck, in the Pacific Northwest. A cage study was conducted Montana 1987 and 1988 to assess feeding strategy M . larva its impact on two flies, Urophora spp., also knapweed. Each destroyed an average 8.13 knapweed seeds. Most seeds were prior dispersal early September but remaining attacked spring following year. tied 7.0 with silk webbing which allowed...
