Enomoto, Masatoshi (National Institute of Genetics, Mishima, Japan) and Tetsuo Iino. Colonial dimorphism in nonmotile Salmonella. J. Bacteriol. 86:473-477. 1963.-Two distinct colonial types, LP-type and SD-type, appeared among the nonmotile mutant clones originated from a strain of Salmonella typhimurium when they were cultivated on semisolid gelatin-agar medium (NGA) at 37 C. These colonial ty...

British sociology was established as an academic discipline between 1945 and 1965, just as the British Empire was gearing up for a new phase of developmental colonialism backed by the social and other sciences. Many parts of the emerging sociological discipline became entangled with colonialism. Key themes and methods in sociology and the staff of sociology departments emerged from this colonia...

We describe a new species of bent-toed gecko from a single specimen initially collected in 1924 by Malcolm Smith on Timor Island in the Lesser Sunda Archipelago of Indonesia. Cyrtodactylus celatus sp. nov. is distinguished from all other congeners by the following combination of characters: small adult size; without spinose tubercles on the ventrolateral body fold and along the lateral margin o...

Many independent nations with strong tourism economies have colonial pasts. In parts of Africa and Asia, former colonial powers have left post-colonial legacies of language, buildings, trade and diplomatic links, and government bureaucratic structures (Ashcroft, Griffiths, & Tiffin, 2007; Sharp, 2009; Zein-Alabdin, 2009). There are also strong postcolonial influences on tourism (Carrigan, 2011;...

This article explores the scientific and entrepreneurial incentives for malaria research in the tea plantations of north Bengal in colonial India. In the process it highlights how the logic of 'location' emerged as the central trope through which medical experts, as well as colonial administrators and planters, defined malaria research in the region. The paper argues that the 'local' emerged as...

The purpose of this study was to determine the role of colonial morphology of Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) organisms in pathogenicity in a mouse model of pulmonary infection. BCC strain C1394 was rapidly cleared by leukopenic mice after intranasal challenge, whereas a spontaneous variant (C1394mp2) that was indistinguishable from the parent strain by genetic typing persisted in the lungs ...

In the sixteenth century, Spanish missionaries judged and ranked human intelligence and civilization by whether the people were in possession of alphabetic writing. This was an initial moment in the configuration of the colonial difference and the building of the Atlantic imaginary, which will become the imaginary of the modern/colonial world. Translation was the special tool to absorb the colo...

Paul Fox closes his exploration of the institutionalisation of memory within museums with the question “do Australians inhabit a postcolonial world or a landscape of colonial memories?” [Fox, 1992, 317] The question forms for him out of an analysis of the ways in which the orderings of aboriginality and space of the colonial museum continued to haunt Australian cultural imaginaries in the early...
