The development of informed management practices and insightful research
depends not only on an understanding of species natural history and ecology, but
information regarding the distributions of these species and how they interact with
adjacent...
A two-year project was initiated in 1984 to determine the distribution of Erioneuron pilosum (Buckl.) Nash (Gramineae) in Ellis County and other parts of Kansas; to describe habitat characteristics associated with the distribution of this grass;...
"The phenotype of two Andropogon gerardii subspecies, big bluestem and sand bluestem, varies broadly throughout the Great Plains of North America, giving rise to ecotypes within the species. This study sought to discriminate between genetic and...
The antibiotic vancomycin was developed by Eli Lilly in the 1950s in response to
the growing number of Staphylococcus aureus infections that were resistant to penicillin.
Vancomycin was not widely used at the time because of its high toxicity....
The purpose of the researcher was to investigate attitudes of nurses toward alcoholics. The independent variables were: Level of nursing education achieved, type of nursing position held, formal alcoholism education, and alcoholism in the family....
An investigation was made to determine the role of pelage color of Peromyscus maniculatus nebrascensis in relation to the type of soil and the vegetation the Nebraska deermouse inhabits. P.M. nebrascensis displays several different shades of pelage...
I analyzed variation in a portion of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region to determine if montane populations of the red squirrel (tamiasciurus hudsonicus) in Colorado are isolated andto relate genetic variation in the species to glacial...
The purpose of the researcher was to investigate attitudes of college students toward alcoholics. The independent variables investigated were gender, academic classification, academic achievement, age, nationality, religious affiliation, and...
Systematic relationships among six chromosomal races of Geomys bursarius on the Central Great Plains were assessed using morphometric and electrophoretic methods. Gross cranial morphology was inadequate as a discriminator among most races and...
The taxonomic significance of two chromosomal races of Geomys bursarius lutescens Merriam was reviewed using morphometric, karyotypic, and electrophoretic methods of analysis. The two chromosomally distinct races were well differentiated both...
The purpose of the research was to investigate teachers’ attitudes toward alcoholism. The independent variables were: gender, when formal teacher education was received, the number of years of experience in teaching, formal education in the field...
