Homogeneous squash cotyledon reduced nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NADH):nitrate reductase (NR) was isolated using blue-Sepharose and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Gel slices containing NR were pulverized and injected into a previously unimmunized rabbit. This process was repeated weekly and antiserum to NR was obtained after four weeks. Analysis of the antiserum by Ouchterlony doubl...

The efficacy of fallow and coastal bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) as a rotation crop for control of root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita race 1) and soilborne fungi in okra (Hibiscus esculentus cv. Emerald), squash (Cucurbita pepo cv. Dixie Hybrid), and sweet corn (Zea mays cv. Merit) was evaluated in a 3-year field trial. Numbers of M. incognita in the soil and root-gall indices were gre...

OBJECTIVE: A rare case of LDD confirmed by biopsy is being reported. Review of the published cases shows that the disease usually manifests by the signs of increased intracranial pressure with inconstant cerebellar symptoms. MRI is the imaging modality of choice by now. As such, clinical problems after gross total or complete removal have not been reported so far, but herein we stress the impor...

Squash was first domesticated in Mexico and is now found throughout North America (NA) along with Peponapis pruinosa, a pollen specialist bee species of the squash genus Cucurbita The origin and spread of squash cultivation is well-studied archaeologically and phylogenetically; however, no study has documented how cultivation of this or any other crop has influenced species in mutualistic inter...

We describe a new function called SQUASH (which is short for SQU are-hASH ), which is ideally suited to challenge-response MAC applications in highly constrained devices such as RFID tags. It is exceptionally simple, requires no source of random bits, and can be efficiently implemented on processors with arbitrary word sizes. Unlike other ad-hoc proposals which have no security analysis, SQUASH...

Squash is a racquet sport played in a similar style room as racquetball. In a squash match there are 2 players that alternate hitting a small, black, rubber ball.
