Diet Analysis of Gastrotricha
The phylum Gastrotricha is comprised of small aquatic organisms that live in between sand grains. It has been shown that meiofauna communities can play valuable roles in ecosystems and serve as a food source for animals higher up the trophic levels. However, little is known about their own feeding behavior which this study is concerned about. Over the summer developments were made in the methodical sections for diet diagnostic PCR for marine bacterial strains, unicellular marine eukaryotes, and investigating different types of immunofluorescence for marine bacteria. We also plan at looking at the number of sarcomeres within the pharynx of these animals to see if there is a correlation between the number of sarcomeres and their feeding habits.https://digitalcommons.winthrop.edu/sureposters/1001/thumbnail.jp

Questioning the nation: #QandA and the mediatisation of Zaky Mallah
Panel DConference Theme: Postgraduate PerspectivesOur language, culture and even national identity are increasingly regulated and legitimised in transnational markets of late capitalism (Duchêne and Heller, 2012). As a result, media institutions have become the gatekeepers of our language ideological processes (Milani and Johnson, 2010), directly challenging the role of the nation in the production of knowledge and expertise. Exemplifying this contention, the Australian television program ...postprin
Influence of Reduced Leaching on Growth of Seedlings of Black Locust Inoculated with Rhizobia
Seedlings of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) were inoculated with compatible rhizobia and irrigated twice each week with solution containing either 50 or 150 mg nitrogen/L. Leaching fraction treatments of 0, 0.2, or 0.4 were maintained for 6 weeks. Seedlings supplied 50 mg nitrogen/L grew poorly compared co planes supplied 150 mg nitrogen/L regardless of leaching fraction. Dry masses of shoots and of entire planes were lower for seedlings in the 0 and 0.2 leaching fraction treatments compared with chose in the 0.4 treatment. Neither leaching fraction nor applied nitrogen concentration appeared co affect the number of nodules per plant, but nodule diameter seemed greater on planes irrigated with the more dilute solution. We conclude that reducing leaching can reduce shoot growth of containerized black locust, but the monetary and environmental benefits of lower water and fertilizer use should be considered before the commercial significance of the growth reduction is judged
