CHEMICAL CHANGES IN CARROTS DURING GROWTH

Changes in chemical composition in male turkeys during growth.

In growing animals, requirements for many nutrients (and energy) are determined by the retention of these nutrients. During growth, this retention changes in an absolute way and also between nutrients and energy, resulting in changing nutrient requirements. The objective of this study was to describe the changes in chemical composition in male growing turkeys. The serial slaughter technique was...

Carrots, sticks and fog during insurgencies

We formulate a rational choice model of popular behavior during an insurgency. An individual in the population either supports the insurgents or the government depending upon his attitude and the actions taken by each side. We focus on the effect of insurgency actions: benefits, impositions, and coercion. While benefits and impositions are applied uniformly throughout, the insurgents intend to ...

Changes during Long-term Growth

Growth rate and concentrations of sulfates, sulfides, proteins and glucosamine were analyzed during long-term (over 60 days) incubation of Desulfotomaculum acetoxidans DSM 771. To imitate natural conditions, incubation was done in obligate anaerobic conditions in three series, without stirring or shaking. In the first 2–3 days of incubation (lag phase), only a decrease of the sulfate level occu...

Changes in Growth and Chemical Defences upon Defoliation in Maize

ÐThe e€ect of defoliation on growth and on levels and allocation patterns of hydroxamic acids (Hx) in maize seedlings was evaluated 6 days after treatment. No signi®cant di€erences were found between defoliated and nondefoliated plants for the Hx concentration, relative Hx content and Hx-aglucone to Hxglucoside ratio in shoots, roots and root exudates, with the exception of Hx concentration in ...
