Promoting a functional macroinvertebrate approach in the biomonitoring of Italian lotic systems
No full textBiography of the Hon. W. H. Merritt, M.P., of Lincoln, District of Niagara, by J. P. Merritt; with annotations, marginalia and handwritten additions, ca. 1875
No full textWilliam Hamilton Merritt was the most important entrepreneur in the Niagara region in his era. His contributions to the creation of the Welland Canal and of vital transportation routes between Upper Canada and Montreal, and to points across the Atlantic Ocean are widely known to be highly significant. Merritt was also involved in railroad development and banking.The record is the biography of William Hamilton Merritt written by his son J.P. (Jedediah Prendergast) Merritt.
The pages have been annotated and cross referenced, as perhaps by the author himself or by a close family member. Additional nine pages of handwritten notes have been glued into the book as providing additional information to the content. Three newspaper clippings were added as well, with a few others missing. The inside cover of the book has been inscribed, “Merritt Collection”
Controlled butchery observations as a means for interpreting Okote member hominin carnivory at Koobi Fora, Kenya
No full textThree archaeological assemblages from Okote Member (1.5 Ma) deposits at Koobi Fora, Kenya described by Pobiner (2007, Pobiner et al., 2008) have well preserved cortical surfaces that bear abundant hominin butchery traces on large and small mammalian taxa, minimal carnivore tooth marking, and lack in situ lithic materials. Pobiner suggests that Homo erectus generally enjoyed primary access to carcass resources with a traditional assemblage-scale analysis of butchered specimens and anatomical interpretations of cut mark location. Bunn (1981, 1994) proposes a foraging strategy for Okote hominins that links core tool butchery and curation to locally unavailable stone raw material sources in the Ileret and Koobi Fora areas of the Eastern Turkana basin. Evidence of core tool use is interpreted from the presence of wide, shallow cut marks on large animals bones. To evaluate these interpretations of hominin carnivory and bring greater resolution to archaeofaunal cut mark interpretation, I undertook a series of actualistic butchery experiments to document how tool type (flake versus Oldowan core), butchery action (skinning, defleshing bulk tissue, defleshing scrap tissue, disarticulation) and animal size (goat versus cow) influence skeletal patterns of cut mark location, and to construct general models of cut mark cross-sectional size and the geometric organization of cut mark clusters that can discriminate these independent variables. Results indicate that tool type cannot be identified in any analysis, and that animal size influences cut mark size and organization, falsifying Bunn’s hypothesis of core tool use. Skinning and disarticualtion produce wide and deep cut marks that can be distinguished from defleshing, although the amount of tissue removed (defleshing bulk versus scrap) cannot be determined from cut mark size or cluster organization. All three mark categories occur at distinct skeletal locations, but disarticulation and defleshing cooccur on the elbow. However, these actions can be distinguished on the elbow when cut mark cluster geometry is considered. A model that identifies hominins’ early access to carcass resources from elbow specimens with evidence of defleshing and disarticulation versus late access from disarticulated elbow specimens brings increased behavioral resolution to cut mark interpretation and supports previous findings of Okote hominins’ primary carcass consumption.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Stephen Ryan Merrit

Gene-flow between populations of cotton bollworm Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is highly variable between years
No full textBoth large and small scale migrations of Helicoverpa armigera Hübner in Australia were investigated using AMOVA analysis and genetic assignment tests. Five microsatellite loci were screened across 3142 individuals from 16 localities in eight major cotton and grain growing regions within Australia, over a 38-month period (November 1999 to January 2003). From November 1999 to March 2001 relatively low levels of migration were characterized between growing regions. Substantially higher than average gene-flow rates and limited differentiation between cropping regions characterized the period from April 2001 to March 2002. A reduced migration rate in the year from April 2002 to March 2003 resulted in significant genetic structuring between cropping regions. This differentiation was established within two or three generations. Genetic drift alone is unlikely to drive genetic differentiation over such a small number of generations, unless it is accompanied by extreme bottlenecks and/or selection. Helicoverpa armigera in Australia demonstrated isolation by distance, so immigration into cropping regions is more likely to come from nearby regions than from afar. This effect was most pronounced in years with limited migration. However, there is evidence of long distance dispersal events in periods of high migration (April 2001–March 2002). The implications of highly variable migration patterns for resistance management are considered.K.D. Scott, K.S. Wilkinson, N. Lawrence, C.L. Lange, L.J. Scott, M.A. Merritt, A.J. Lowe and G.C Graha

Induction of alkaline phosphatase during lymphocyte blast transformation in cba mice, 1979
No full textAlkaline phosphatase is a membrane-bound enzyme which hydrolyzes phosphate esters at an alkaline pH. This enzyme has been found localized on the murine thymic lymphoblast, in the placenta and embryonic thymus up to 16 day gestation. Alkaline phosphatase has also been found in cells surrounding the germinal centers in the normal adult spleen of C57B1/6J mice. Lymphocytes from the thymus, nodes, and spleen of normal adult CBA mice were stimulated with concanavalin A to determine the appearance of alkaline phosphatase during dedifferentiation of the normal immune response and to determine the macromolecular requirements needed for this enzyme induction. Fluorometric analysis of time course experiments of blasting lymphocytes indicated that alkaline phosphatase does appear in blasting lymphocytes. Mitomycin C inhibited DNA synthesis and alkaline phosphatase induction. Actinomycin D inhibited both RNA and DNA synthesis and alkaline phosphatase induction. Therefore, the induction of alkaline phosphatase may be used as a lymphoblastic marker in studying dedifferentiation in the normal immune response
