Japanese silver grass (Miscanthus sinensis) and 14 cultivars were transplanted in northern and southern Florida and evaluated for landscape performance, fl owering, growth, and seed viability. All plants survived the 84-week study at both locations with the exception of ‘Morning Light’, where 22% to 33% of the plants died. In northern and southern Florida, ‘Arabesque’, ‘Adagio’, ‘Cosmopolitan’,...

Interactions of peripheral inputs to the motoneuron of the kitten fetus as young as 3 weeks prenatal were studied by reflex discharge from the ventral root as well as by recording from single motoneurons. Facilitation was found between two synergists in fetuses I to 2 weeks before birth. Intracellular recording showed that the facilitation could be explained by summation of excitatory postsynap...

This paper reports on recent progress made in ATR's attempt to build a 10,000 evolved neural net module artificial brain to control the behaviors of a life sized robot kitten.

Our previous work has shown that kitten hearts perfused with a warm, moist mixture of 5% CO2-95S O2 beat strongly for many hours. We now show that after 1 hr of gas perfusion, intermittent administration of small volumes of Krebs solution (5 ml every 30 min to total of 20 ml) causes progressive failure of the heart. Washout cardiac failure is accompanied by loss of protein from the hearts. We h...
