The reproductive abilities of four races of Heterodera glycines were compared on soybean cultivars by using single cyst or mass inoculations. Progeny transfers were used to determine changes in reproduction of H. glycines. Reproduction of all races (1, 2, 3, 4) was best on 'Lee' and poorest on P1 88788. The size of females produced and numbers of eggs/female of the different races varied with t...

Transectional studies of Lasthenia californica in the Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve (Stanford University) have documented the existence of two races (A and C) based upon flavonoid chemistry, achene morphology, allozymes, and flowering time differences. The two races coexist on a serpentine outcrop and have maintained a sharply defined pattern of distribution for a period of at least 15 yr. T...

This thesis addresses theoretical and practical aspects of the dynamic detecting and debugging of race conditions in shared-memory parallel programs. To reason about race conditions, we present a formal model that characterizes actual, observed, and potential behaviors of the program. The actual behavior precisely represents the program execution, the observed behavior represents partial inform...

Detecting races is important for debugging shared-memory parallel programs , because the races result in unintended nondeterministic executions of the programs. Previous on-they techniques to detect races in programs with nested parallelism cannot guarantee that the race detected rst is not preceded by events that also participate in a race (occurred rst in our terminology). This paper presents...

One hundred thirty-eight isolates of Heterodera glycines from nine states in the United States, People's Republic of China, and Indonesia were tested on the four standard soybean race differentials. A total of 12 variants were found, including the five races described previously. The seven variants that did not correspond to one of the described races and reports from other areas of populations...
