Recent Submissions

  • Stadler Genetics Symposia, volume 07, 1975 : Preliminaries and back matter 

    Stadler Genetics Symposium (7th : 1975 : Columbia, Missouri) (University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
  • Evolutionary importance of gene regulation 

    Wilson, Allan C. (University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
    To assess the relative importance of regulatory mutations and structural gene mutations in adaptive evolution at the organismal level, two kinds of evidence were considered: 1) Evidence concerning the mechanism by which ...
  • Genetic transformation as a tool in the studies of DNA replication and recombination 

    Sueoka, Noboru (University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
    Mechanism of chromosome replication by the use of transformation and genetic recombination are reviewed in Bacillus subtilis. The order of gene replication can be determined by marker frequency analysis during exponential ...
  • Genetic analysis of photosynthesis 

    Miles, C. Donald (University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
    It is now possible to select mutations of nuclear genes controlling various steps of the light reaction of photosynthesis in higher plants. Forty-nine such mutants, which were not previously available for the study of ...
  • Natural selection and adaptive resemblances 

    Metter, Dean E. (University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
    The great majority of animal species exhibit some type of adaptive resemblance. Whether this takes the direction of cryptic resemblance of some type of mimicry is unpredictable. The evidence indicates that all adaptive ...
  • Enzyme polymorphism and adaptation 

    Johnson, George B. (University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
    After a brief resume of the controversy concerning the adaptive value of enzyme polymorphisms, a physiological hypo thesis is advanced that heterosis for enzymes of intermediary metabolism results from the differential ...
  • Eukaryotic genes in prokaryotic cells 

    Helling, Robert R. (University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
    "High yields of specific genes or their products can be obtained by cloning the genes (from any organism) as part of arokaryotic plasmid or virus. Furthermore the methods of microbial genetics are available for use in ...
  • Advances in somatic cell hybridization in higher plants 

    Gamborg, Oluf L. (University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
    Advances in tissue culture and protoplast technology make it possible to investigate genetic manipulation of somatic plant cells. The development of a new and efficient technique has resulted in fusion of protoplasts and ...
  • Genome organization in higher plants 

    Flavell, Richard B.; Smith, Derek B. (University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
    Higher plant chromosomes contain many families of thousands of similar nucleotide sequences as well as sequences pre sent in only one or a few copies per haploid genome. We summarise here biochemical investigations into ...
