Describing the growth and molt of modern domestic turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) primary wing feathers. [PDF]
The use of feathers as noninvasive physiological measurements of biomarkers in poultry research is expanding. Feather molting patterns and growth rates, however, are not well described in domestic poultry. These parameters could influence the measurement

Growth of Rotaviruses in Primary Pancreatic Cells [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rotavirus infection in children at risk of developing type 1 diabetes has been temporally associated with development of pancreatic islet autoantibodies. In this study, nonobese diabetic mice were shown to be susceptible to rhesus rotavirus infection and pancreatic islets from nonobese diabetic mice, nonobese diabetes-resistant mice,

Water supply and not nitrate concentration determines primary root growth in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Understanding how root system architecture (RSA) adapts to changing nitrogen and water availability is important for improving acquisition. A sand rhizotron system was developed to study RSA in a porous substrate under tightly regulated nutrient supply ...

Primary Structure of Bovine Growth Hormone [PDF]
The study of the structure of the peptides arising from native, oxidized or reduced and maleinized bovine growth hormone on incubation with trypsin, chymotrypsin and pepsin is reported. The data obtained permitted the assembly of a unique sequence of amino acids for the poly‐peptide chain of the protein.

On the dynamics of the growth plate in primary ossification [PDF]
In this work a mathematical model for the interaction of two key signalling molecules in rat tibia ossification is presented and discussed. The molecules under consideration are Indian hedgehog (Ihh) and parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP). These are known to be major agents in the dynamics of the so-called growth plate, where transition from ...
