(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1913)
Text from Introduction section of this thesis: In general, but little attention has been paid to the relative growth of the various organs in fishes. Some scattering observations are included. in the work of Welcker and ...
A preliminary study of the anodic phenomena occurring in organic electrolysis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1924)
Some preliminary calculations have been made in an endeavor to connect the electrolytic decomposition potentials of compounds with the electron affinity of the constituents of the compounds. Variations in the experimental ...

Reflectance sensors to predict mid-season nitrogen need of cotton
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Nitrogen (N) is an essential nutrient for cotton production; consequently there is a tendency to over-apply nitrogen. High N causes excessive vegetative growth and delayed crop maturity, which result in increased cost in ...
Associations between Wolbachia, maize and Diabrotica virgifera virgifera
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Diabrotica virgifera virgifera which is infected with Wolbachia, is the most significant and widespread pest to maize in North America and Europe. Wolbachia are obligate intracellular bacteria which seem to be limited to ...
The use of pluripotent stem cells as a model for early human placentation
