Reproduct ion of Pratylenchus vulnus Allen and Jensen on rose was repor ted faster at 32.2 C than at 23.9 and 15.6 C (6). Reproduct ion on alfalfa tissue was faster at 25 C than at 20 and 30 C (3), while on 'Lovell ' peach and bush bean, reproduct ion was faster at 28.3 C than at 24.4, 20.6, 16.7, and 12.8 C (1). Populat ions of P. vulnus and other species of root-lesion nematodes are often rai...

1 I n t r o d u c t i o n The proliferation of digitized media (audio, image and video) is creat ing a pressing need for copyright enforcement schemes tha t protect copyright ownership. Convent ional c ryptographic systems permit only valid keyholders access to enc ryp ted data , but once such da ta is decrypted there is no way to t rack its reproduct ion or retransmission. Conventional c ryp t...

Veech (7) reported that dif lubenzuron had ovicidal activity against Meloidogyne incognita and suggested that this activity could be impor tan t in developing new control strategies. Radewald et al. (5) and Birchfield (1) respectively provided prel iminary evidence that oxamyl suppresses reproduct ion of M. incognita and Rotylenchulus reniformis. This study was conducted to determine the effect...

Embryo donat ion (also known as embryo adopt ion) is the compassionate gif t ing of residual cryopreserved embryos by consent ing parents to infert ile recipients. At present, only a limited number of such transact ions occur. In 2010, the last year for which U.S. data were available, fewer than 1000 embryo donat ions were recorded. These acts of giving, unencumbered by federal law, are being g...

Thermoper iodism is known to influence the growth of tomato, Lycopersicon esculenturn (10), but its effect on reproduct ion of the root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid and White) Chitwood, infecting tomato has not been reported. T o m a t o genotypes carrying the Mi gene for resistance to root-knot nematodes lose their resistance when exposed to constant high temperature (4,5,6,8)....
