An ecologically-based approach to the design of intercrop agroecosystems: An intercropping system of soybeans and tomatoes in Southern Michigan
(Elsevier, 1984-10)
A model is developed in which the elementary structure of plant competision is translated into the classical yield-density equation. Using the same reasoning, an interspecific form of the model is formulated to predict ...
Microprinted feeder cells guide embryonic stem cell fate
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2011-10)
We introduce a non‐contact approach to microprint multiple types of feeder cells in a microarray format using immiscible aqueous solutions of two biopolymers. Droplets of cell suspension in the denser aqueous phase are ...
An idealized concept of the true cladistic character
(Elsevier, 1975-04)
Estimating evolutionary relationships is basic to the objectives of systematics. Comparative data, structured as taxonomic characters, are usually the essential considerations on which such estimates are founded. Some ...
Physiological changes during the adaptation of hybridoma cells to low serum and serum-free media
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1991-01-05)
Two murine hybridoma cell lines (167.4G5.3 and S3H5/Γ2bA2) were adapted to grow in low-serum and serum-free media by a weaning procedure. The changes in cell growth, metabolic, and antibody production rates with adaptation ...
Towards a new index for environmental sustainability based on a DALY weighting approach
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2008-07)
Composite indicators are synthetic indices that are used to rank country performances in specific policy areas. Many do, however, suffer from methodological difficulties. Specific difficulties linked to indices for ...
Effects of dimethyl sulfoxide on the globally ischemic heart: Possible general relevance to hypothermic organ preservation
(Elsevier, 1982-02)
Isolated perfused rabbit hearts were made globally ischemic for 2 hr, then reperfused. For 5 min before and after ischemia hearts were perfused with hypothermic (20 or 27 [deg]C), hypoxic, substrate-free cardioplegic ...
Simulation of the potential for life history components to regulate walleye population size
(Elsevier, 1989-02)
A bioenergetic life history simulation model was applied to identify components of the walleye (Stezostedion vitrium) life history that had a potential for population regulation. The model combined a predator-prey model, ...
Guilty until Proven Innocent-Regulation with Costly and Limited Enforcement
(Elsevier, 1994-09)
We consider optimal regulations for a polluting firm when regulators cannot observe emission control costs and can only observe emissions via costly monitoring. Fines (or subsidies) for enforcing compliance are also limited. ...
Cell affinity separations using magnetically stabilized fluidized beds: Erythrocyte subpopulation fractionation utilizing a lectin-magnetite support
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2003-03-20)
A magnetically stabilized fluidized bed is used to separate erythrocyte subpopulations. Binding specificity was obtained by immobilizing the lectin Helix pomatia Agglutinin (HpA) or Griffonia simplicifolia I (GSI) onto ...
