Genotypic variation in Actinidia deliciosa fruit size and carbohydrate content
… between at-harvest dry matter and starch content, and soluble solid concentration and flavour when fruit are eating ripe. This suggests that carbon accumulation strongly influences the development of kiwifruit taste. The overall aim of the present study was to determine what factors affect …

Tillering and carbohydrate content of orchardgrass as influenced by environmental factors
… environmental factors on tillering, growth, and carbohydrate content of orchardgrass. Tillers of one genotype were studied with several variable factors (light, temperature, moisture,. nitrogen, and/or defoliation) in each of four experiments. Factorial treatment combinations were used in each of …

Temporal composition of tannin and carbohydrate content in Eucalyptus leaves in South Africa
… variation of the tannin concentration and carbohydrate content of the leaves of nine Eucalyptus species. Soluble tannins were quantified using Hagerman test and the carbohydrate content with a refractometer. Generally high tannin concentrations were observed during spring and late summer …

Adaptive Laboratory Evolution of Scenedesmus obliquus for Increased Carbohydrate Content and Biomass Productivity
… of energy storage compounds, such as carbohydrates and lipids, and increased biomass productivity. This thesis explores two adaptive laboratory evolution strategies for improving <em>Scenedesmus obliquus</em>: single UV-mutagenesis and low light cultivation at a high dilution rate to …

The effect of exercise and the alteration of carbohydrate content of a hypocaloric diet on blood lipids
… of an exercise program with either a high carbohydrate (HC) hypocaloric diet or low carbohydrate (LC) hypocaloric diet on total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and triglycerides. Subjects were randomly placed in one of the diet groups (530 kcal/day) and participated …

The effect of an aerobic exercise program and two hypocaloric diets of different carbohydrate content on blood pressure and sodium balance in obese females
… studied to determine the effects of either a 71% carbohydrate (HC) hypocaloric diet or a 33% carbohydrate (LC) hypocaloric diet concommitant with an aerobic exercise program on sodium (Na) balance and blood pressure changes. Subjects participated three times a week in a submaximal periodic …

Studies on host-parasite relationships of some species of digenean larvae with the marine prosubranch littorina littorea
… the effects of larval digeneans on the seasonal carbohydrate content and the reproductive biology of Littorina littorea L. at Scalby Rocks, North Yorkshire. Observations on infection with the different species of larvae were also made throughout the survey.There have been many studies on the …

Epidemiology of and resistance to kernel infection of sweet corn by Fusarium moniliforme
… and seedling vigor problems. The high sucrose content of sh2 kernels, accumulated at the expense of starch reserves, is one of several factors associated with the poor vigor of sh2 hybrids. Another factor affecting vigor is infection of sh2 kernels by fungal pathogens, especially Fusarium …

Effects of Herbivory on Plant and Insect Growth
… that follow herbivory. Finally, the carbohydrate content of high starch foliage was similar to that of elevated CO2 foliage and appears to stimulate compensatory feeding. Plant responses to herbivory are complex and spatially distinct. The relationship between plants and insects may …

The effect of protein and fat meal content on the insulin requirement of type 1 diabetic children
… meal bolus insulin is mainly dependent on carbohydrate counting and the carbohydrate content of a meal. Recent studies have shown this method to be ineffective at times. Also, it has been proven that the fat and protein contents of meals demand insulin as well. The aim of this study was to …

Some physiological responses of two grasses as influenced by temperature, light, and nitrogen fertilization
… to study the influence of nitrogen rates on carbohydrate reserves at different seasons. Increased temperatures with bentgrass caused decreased carbohydrates, root weights, and final growth of tops, but increased nitrogen content and respiration. NAR in bentgrass was highest at 75 F. The …

Growth analysis and regrowth potential of three cool season grasses in spring
… all weekly samplings. The non-structural carbohydrates in the stubble generally showed an inverse relation with the CGR. There were differences in total LAI among grasses when averaging the weekly cuts. The regrowth in the field after harvesting at different dates was found to be …

The Effect of Plant Nutrition on the Reproductive Rate and Susceptibility to Malathion of Two Strains of the Two-Spotted Spider Mite, Tetranychus telarius (L.)
… Total nitrogen and total water soluble carbohydrate in the host plant tissue were determined by standard methods. Correlation analysis with the number of mite progeny and results of leaf analyses were conducted. The effects of plant nutrition on susceptibility to malathion of the two …

Reproduction of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne arenaria on flue-cured tobacco possessing resistance genes Rk1 and/or Rk2 and the impact of parasitism on the accumulation of nicotine in conventional and low-alkaloid tobacco
… making from the FDA mandating reduced nicotine content of cured tobacco leaf, we investigated the relationship between alkaloid (nicotine) content of flue-cured tobacco and root-knot nematode parasitism, while also evaluating nematode parasitism effects on carbohydrate content. Despite …

Immunogenicity of Staphylococcus Aureus Antigens Against Experimentally Induced Mastitis in the Mouse and Optimization of Antigen Production in Fermenter Culture
… showed that media high in nitrogen and carbohydrate content and grown at pH 5.5 resulted in the greatest amount of capsule antigen production. Capsular antigens may be more useful in preventing "S. aureus" mastitis than whole cell preparations. Media containing high concentrations of …

Corticosteroid Induced Alkaline Phosphatase: Cellular Location, Biochemical Characterization and Comparison to Intestinal Alkaline Phosphatase of the Dog (Amino Acid, Monoclonal Antibody, Peptide Mapping, Carbohydrate, N-Terminal)
… sequencing of the first 10 amino acids, and carbohydrate analysis indicates SIALP and IALP are identical to each other except in carbohydrate content, and that the SIALP is either a product of the IALP gene or a product of addition of carbohydrate including sialic acid to IALP which was taken …
