Extensive evolution of cereal ribosome-inactivating proteins translates into unique structural features, activation mechanisms, and physiological roles [PDF]
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are a class of cytotoxic enzymes that can depurinate rRNAs thereby inhibiting protein translation. Although these proteins have also been detected in bacteria, fungi, and even some insects, they are especially ...

Controlling Fall Armyworm on Peanut, 1997 [PDF]
Abstract Foliar applications of insecticides were evaluated for FAW control in Brenda County. Each plot was 20 ft by 4 rows (36-inch centers), of NC 10 variety peanuts, and plots were arranged in a RCBD with four replicates. Peanuts were grown under standard production practices in a light sandy soil.
