326 Adler, Frederick R.Defended fortresses or moving targets? Another model of inducible defenses inspired by military metaphorsWe use a common framework to compare three models of plant strategies to confront herbivory: constitutive defense, optimal inducible defense, and the "moving target." Plants with constitutive defenses retain a fixed defensive phenotype. Plants with optimal inducible defenses respond to attack by inc...Constitutive defense; optimal inducible defense; phenotype1994
327 Olivera, Baldomero M.Defining a clade by morphological, molecular, and toxinological criteria: distinctive forms related to Conus praecellens A. Adams, 1854 (Gastropoda: Conidae)We carried out a definition of the Conus praecellens A. Adams, 1854, species group using a combination of comparative morphological data, molecular phylogeny based on standard genetic markers, and toxinological markers. Prior to this work, Conus praecellens was generally postulated to belong to a cl...Turriconus; 12SrRNA sequences; Phylogenetic analysis; Conus praecellens; Exogenes2010
328 Wu, Yong-ShiDeformed Hubbard operator, bosonization, and phase diagram of the one-dimensional t-J modelWe present an analytic study of the phase diagram of the one-dimensional t-J model and a couple of its cousins. To deal with the interactions induced by the no double occupancy constraints, we introduce a deformation of the Hubbard operators. When the deformation parameter ∆ is small, the induced...Hubbard operator; Bosonization; Deformation; t-J model2002-10
329 Farmer, Colleen G.Dendrobates auratus (green and black poison dart frog). Larval PredationDendrobates auratus was intentionally introduced onto the island of O'ahu, Hawai'i in 1932 from Taboga Island, Panama for mosquito control. Phelsuma laticauda was accidentally introduced from Madagascar in 1996 to the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Both species are well established in the Manoa Val...Dendrobates auratus; Phelsuma laticauda2007
330 Keller, Robert M.Denotational models for parallel programs with indeterminate operatorsSeveral approaches to networks of concurrently-operating modules involving indeterminacy are discussed. Techniques for representing the denotational semantics of such networks, and for verifying properties of them, are presented, including an oracle approach, an axiomatic approach, a data-type reduc...Denotational models; Indeterminate operators1977
331 Adler, Frederick R.Departure time versus departure rate: how to forage optimally when you are stupidForagers unable to leave a patch at the optimal moment must act as constrained foragers. Extending the results of Houston and McNamara (1985), we compare a blundering forager that leaves patches at a constant rate with an unconstrained optimal forager that leaves patches at the optimal time.Blundering Foragers; Foraging; Marginal Value Theorem1999
332 Kieda, David B.Deployment of a pair of 3M telescopes in UtahTwo 3m telescopes are being installed in Grantsville Utah.

335 Gondolo, PaoloDetectability of the Sgr dwarf leading tidal stream with Auger, EUSO, or OWLWe point out that if heavy metastable particles composing the dark matter of our galaxy are responsible for the ultrahigh energy cosmic rays (UHECR) then the leading tidal stream of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy could be detected through UHECR. The signal would be an anisotropy in the UHECR flux sma...Sagittarius dwarf galaxy; Sgr stream; anisotropy2004-07
336 Gondolo, PaoloDetectability of weakly interacting massive particles in the Sagittarius dwarf tidal streamTidal streams of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy (Sgr) may be showering dark matter onto the solar system and contributing ~(0:3-23)% of the local density of our galactic halo. If the Sagittarius galaxy contains dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), the ext...WIMP; Weakly interacting massive particles; Sagittarius dwarf galaxy; Recoil energy; Sgr stream2005-02
337 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineDetection of electronic excited states in conjugated polymers by picosecond transient strain spectroscopyWe describe a new type of spectroscopy based on picosecond transient strain in absorption photomodulation that can be used to detect and identify both allowed and forbidden optical transitions in solid thin films. We have applied the new spectroscopy to a variety of conducting polymer films such as ...Picosecond transient strain spectroscopy1995-02
338 Morse, Michael DavidDetection of nonpolar lons in 2?3/2 States by Radioastronomy via Magnetic Dipole TransitionsThe possibility of magnetic dipole-induced pure rotational transitions in the interstellar medium is investigated for symmetric Hund?s case (a) linear molecules, such as H-C?C-H+(X~2?3/2u), CO2+ (X~2?3/2g), H-C?C-?C-H+ (X~2?3/2g), and N3 (X~2?3/2g).

339 Ailion, David CharlesDetection of slow modulation wave diffusion in incommensurate barium sodium niobate by 93Nb 2D exchange NMR93Nb two-dimensional (2D) exchange NMR was used to study ultraslow motions in incommensurate barium sodium niobate (BSN) in the temperature range 500 - 560 K. These 2D exchange data provide strong evidence for diffusionlike motion of the modulation wave in BSN. Such motions in BSN had been previousl...NMR; Hahn spin-echo decay; Incommensurate systems.2001
340 Vardeny, Zeev Valentine; Ehrenfreund, Eitan A.Detection of soliton shape modes in polyacetyleneWe observed soliton shape modes by photoinduced absorption in partially isomerized (CH)x and (CD)x, coexisting with the soliton translational modes.

341 Capecchi, Mario R.Detection of targeted GFP-Hox gene fuogenesissions during mouse embry.The ability to use a vital cell marker to study mouse embryogenesis will open new avenues of experimental research. Recently, the use of transgenic mice, containing multiple copies of the jellyfish gene encoding the green fluorescent protein (GFP), has begun to realize this potential.

343 Rogachev, AndreyDetermination of the superconductor-insulator phase diagram for one-dimensional wiresWe establish the superconductor-insulator phase diagram for quasi-one-dimensional wires by measuring a large set of MoGe nanowires. This diagram is roughly consistent with the Chakravarty-Schmid-Bulgadaev phase boundary, namely, with the critical resistance being equal to RQ ¼ h=4e2.

346 Capecchi, Mario R.Developmental defects of the ear, cranial nerves and hindbrain resulting from targeted disruption of the mouse homeobox gene Hox-1.6.Gene targeting in mouse embryo-derived stem cells has been used to generate mice with a disruption in the homeobox gene Hox-1.6. Mice heterozygous at the Hox-1.6 locus appear normal, whereas Hox-1.6-/Hox-1.6- mice die at or shortly after birth. These homozygotes exhibit profound defects in the forma...Chromosome Mapping; Genetic Vectors; Mice, Inbred C57BL2002-06-27

350 Rogachev, AndreyDichotomy in short superconducting nanowires: thermal phase slippage vs. Coulomb blockadeQuasi-one-dimensional superconductors or nanowires exhibit a transition into a nonsuperconducting regime, as their diameter shrinks. We present measurements on ultrashort nanowires (∼40-190 nm long) in the vicinity of this quantum transition.
