The Montgenevre ophiolite (Hautes Alpes, France): Meta—morphism and trace-element geochemistry of the volcanic sequence
(University of Nairobi, 1980)
The Montgenevre ophiolite near Briançon in the French Alps consists of pillow lavas, pegmatitic and flaser gabbros and serpentinite in tectonic contact. These rocks have been metamorphosed under prehnite—pumpellyite to ...
Insect podborer infestations and their influence on developing pods and final seed yields by pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) in Kenya.
(1980)
In Kenya, 8 species of insects were found to be common borers into the developing pods of pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan), feeding on the developing seeds and reducing seed yield. They were Heliothis armigera (Hb.), Maruca ...
Organic acid production and digesta movement in the gastrointestinal tract of the baboon and sykes monkey
(University of Nairobi, 1980)
1. Studies compare the sites of organic acid production and patterns of digesta movement in herbivorous and omnivorous sub-human primates. The results of this study indicate that digestive functions of the herbivorous Sykes ...
Induced Optical Rotation in Zinc(II) and Cobalt(II) Complexes Derived from 1,1,1-Tris- (aminomethyl) ethane and cis, cis-1,3,5-Triaminocyclohexane

Inhibition of leukopoiesis by sera from Trypanosoma congolense infected calves: partial characterization of the inhibitory factor
(University of Nairobi., 1980-06)
Sera collected from calves infected with Trypanosoma congolense inhibited bovine granulocyte/macrophage colony formation in vitro, but not erythroid colony formation. The inhibitor was found to be TCA precipitable in nature ...
The kinetics of haemopoietic differentiation assessed by in vitro bone marrow culture in endotoxin-treated and in anaemic calves
(University of Nairobi., 1980-07)
Marrow aspirates from calves injected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa endotoxin showed an increased number of granulocyte/macrophage progenitor cells, and a reduced number of erythroid progenitor cells. On the other hand, ...
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) varietal response to insect podborer infestation in Kenya.
(University of Nairobi., 1980)
In field trials with (a) determinate and (b) indeterminate pigeon pea cv., pod damage by Heliothis armigera, Pardasena virgulana and Melanagromyza obtusa and seed yield losses ranged from 37% and 23% in an early-flowering ...
Comparative dehydrogenase activity during the ontogenesis of the yellow fever mosquito Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti L. (diptera:culicidae)
(Elsevier, 1980)
α-GPDH in most active in adults, LDH in third instar larvae, and MDH in third instar larvac.
During pre-pupal growth, LDH is the most active enzyme, followed by MDH and α-GPDH; while during post-pupal growth, MDH is ...
