NO MICROBIOCIDE IS AVAILABLE THT IS EFFECTIVE AGAINST SUCH MAJOR PHYTOPATHOGENS AS SPECIES OF XANTHOMONAS, ERWINIA AND PSEUDOMONAS SYRINGAE. THESE PROKARYOTE PATHOGENS POSSESS A BIOCHEMICA PATHWAY FOR BIOSYNTHESIS OF AMINO ACIDS THAT CON-TAINS ENZYMES WHICH HAVE IDEAL POTENTIAL AS TARGETS FOR ANTIMICROBIAL ATTACK. PROSPECTS FOR SELECTIVE ACTION AGAINST THE BACTERIAL PATHOGEN AND NOT THE PLANT HOST ...

THE SHORTCOMINGS OF THE WIDELY USED BURIED-LOOP VEHICLE DE- TECTOR -- 3 TO 5 YEAR LIFETIME, COSTLY, INCONVENIENT TO MAINTAIN/REPLE, INCOMPATIBLE WITH SOME ROADWAYS, UNRELIABLE ACTIVATION BY SOME VEHICLES -- CAN BE OVERCOME THROUGH THE USE OF OVERHEAD INFRARED VEHICLE DETECTORS. THE TECHNICAL OBJECTIVES OF THE PROPOSED RESEARCH INCLUDE A SURVEY OF APPROPRIATE INFRARED SENSORS AND DEVICE ANALYSIS, D ...

New developments in tools for exploitation of stereo aerial photography now enable desktop Windows applications capable of interfacing with existing GIS databases. One area of potential use for these tools is in the area of Highway Access Management especially as it relates to improvement in the process for Highway Driveways. Research is proposed to determine system requirements for using a digi ...
