Eugenics revisited : the case for germinal choice
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
Tryptohan photoproduct as a genetic probe : effects on bacteria
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
Recombinationless (rec) mutants of bacteria are sensitive to visible and near-ultraviolet wavelengths of light. In addition, these mutants are sensitive to a tryptophan photoproduct that results from irradiation of this ...
Judges, genes and man
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
The impact of the developing science of human genetics on society will produce social conflicts and raise social questions which require legal solutions. Particular problems are limitations on human experimentation; legal ...
The genetics, evolution and expression of antibody molecules
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
The vertebrate immune system shares certain general properties with other complex systems in higher organisms and, accordingly, may serve as an ideal model for studying various aspects of differentiation and evolution in ...
Aphrodisiacs and anaphrodisiacs : better loving through chemistry : reproduction, behavior, pheromones, love potions, biological control
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
Reproductive behavior in animals is modulated by an assortment of chemical signals. This paper focuses on substances that are externally emitted and are effective when a male and female are near or in contact with each ...
Genetic approaches to the study of ribosomes
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
Specific mutants of Escherichia coli have been used in order to investigate certain aspects of ribosome function, bio synthesis and decay. These studies show that in the function of the ribosome its various components are ...
Genetic unity and biochemical diversity in genetic recombination mechanisms
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
Obstacles to the unification of recombination mechanisms are: the multiplicity of ways of systematizirig and describing the telltale aberrant or exceptional recombination events, and the substantially different ways of ...
DNA uptake by bacteria and eucaryotic cells
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
The development of new drugs for genetic diseases
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
The genetic diseases of man constitute a unique challenge to the medical scientist. For the past several years our laboratory has been developing new drugs for two of the more common genetic diseases - sickle cell anemia ...
Studies of recombination in yeast
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
Membranes and mutations in chlamydomonas reinhardi
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
A portrait of E.G. Anderson 1891-1973
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
Cytogenetic aspects of the mechanism of recombination in higher organisms
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1971)
Mechanisms that rapidly reorganize the genome : (genome reorganizations, transposable gene control systems, restriction enzymes, stabilizing mechanisms)
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1978)
Extensive reorganization of components of the genome is initiated in maize by the breakage-fusion-bridge (BFB) cycle. Displacements include chromosomes other than those undergoing the cycle. Restructuring ranges from those ...
Genes, intelligence and education
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1971)
Cytoplasmic genes - our Precambrian legacy
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1971)
Mutagenic mechanisms in bacteriophage T4 : (bacteriophage T4, mutagenic mechanisms, heat mutagenesis)
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
Mutagenic mechanisms can be divided into two categories, those dependent upon specific base mispairing (generating base pair substitutions and frameshift mutations) and those dependent upon misrepair (perhaps as a result ...
RNA : protein and protein : Protein interactions in the virions of southern bean mosaic virus : (isometric plant viruses, stabilizing interactions, capsid structure)
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
Virions of southern bean mosaic virus (SBMV), a small RNA-containing isometric plant virus, are stabilized with strong linkages between the coat protein subunits mediated through divalent metal ions (magnesium, calcium) ...
Genetic Regulation of fermentation organisms : fermentation, regulation, antibiotics
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
An effective fermentation organism is a wasteful creature that overproduces and excretes its metabolic intermediates and end products. Cultures obtained from screening programs usually possess subnormal regulatory controls. ...
Dinoflagellate genetics and DNA characterization : (dinoflagellates, evolution, nucleus, DNA, genetics, mesocaryota)
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
Nuclear features of dinoflagellates that were used origin ally to support the Mesocaryota concept are reviewed. Although dinoflagellates possess some procaryotic nuclear features, the remainder of the cell is obviously ...
