Previous studies have shown that indigenous beetle diversity reflects indigenous plant diversity in modified and remnant habitats. This study examines the indigenous: introduced relationship at a locality where degraded pasture has been progressively revegetated. Pitfall traps were used to collect beetles from three revegetated sites of different ages (5, 17 and 100 years) and in a coastal Mueh...

By means of a Q-banding technique, virtually every chromosome in two heteroploid mouse cell lines, RAG and MSWBS, has been identified. The origin of 60 to 80% of the chromosomes has been established; the remaining chromo somes can be identified as markers characteristic of the cell line. The extent of chromosome heterogeneity has been ex amined and compared in these two mouse tumor cell lines. ...

WHAT THIS ARTICLE IS ABOUT The subtribe Flaveriinae (Asteraceae: Helenieae) includes a number of plant species sometimes called yellowtops, glowworts, and false broomweed. Different species of this subtribe differ in their chemical pathways involved in photosynthesis. Somes species use a system known as C 3 photosynthesis, some use a system known as C 4 photosynthesis, and others display charac...

Researchers often measure attitudes and beliefs using ‘‘some/ other’’ questions (‘‘Some people think that . . . but other people think that . . .’’) instead of asking simpler ‘‘direct’’ questions. This article reports studies testing the hypothesis that the some/other question form yields improved response validity. Eight experiments embedded in national surveys provided no evidence in support ...
