    Variation of ommatidia number as a function of worker size inCamponotus pennsylvanicus (DeGeer) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) (1992)

    Notes: Summary The relation of worker size to ommatidia number was examined in the polymorphic antCamponotus pennsylvanicus (DeGeer). Linear regression described this relationship as:Y = 260.9 + 113.6×; whereYis ommatidia number andX is head width. A log-log regression described this relationship as:Y = 323.5 + 286.9*logX(r 2 = 0.98). This analysis indicated an allometric relation of ommatidia number to head width, where ommatidia numbers increase at a slower rate than head width. This relationship is discussed in terms of ethotypes associated with worker morphotypes, and the possible mechanisms regulating polymorphic development.

    Effect of a mass of lead in the incubator space of growing cells (1989)
    Springer

    Notes: Abstract Mouse fibroblasts (3T3 line) growing in vitro in an incubator were subjected to inclusion in the incubator space of different masses and different arrangements of metallic lead. It was found that the mass of lead was positively correlated with death of a percentage of the 3T3 cells. Aside from mass, a second property of the lead, that of shape, was also found to be related to the percentage cell death. Progeny of 3T3 cells whose parents had been previously exposed to lead during their growth were found to have developed a resistance to its cytocidal effect on subsequent exposure. Such progeny cells showed no increase in cell death over the period of time which proved lethal to cells which had not had prior exposure to lead in their environment.
