Joshua tree

However, some of our deer individuals from the arid Joshua Tree National Park in California indicate unusual D-enrichment. This may derive from evapotranspiration in local plants that were part of the diet of the deer and/or in the body fluids of the animals themselves, as is expected in extremely diy environments (Cormie et al., 1994c Bowen et al., 2005). Deer occupy an ecological niche that is relatively simple from the perspective of hydrogen, as their diet consists of leafy vegetation and their water is obtained from surface waters (lakes and streams) that in many cases have D values closely representing mean annual precipitation. In contrast, omnivorous and carnivorous animals consume more diverse diets with more widely varying... 

Saponins for beverage use are sourced from quillaia bark (Quillaia saponaria Molina) and the yuccas. Of the latter species, two main varieties are used in the United States for production of the water extract the Mohave yucca (Yucca mohavensis) and the Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia). At the levels used these additives are colourless and tasteless the dried extract, however, possesses an acrid, astringent taste. Permitted limits are quoted in terms of the dry weight of the extract. In the European Union, subject to Directive 95/2/EC, quillaia is permitted only in non-alcoholic drinks, to a maximum level of 200 mg/1.

Joshua tree (Y. brevifolia) is a tree up to about 20 m high, branched mostly at 1-3 m aboveground with lance-shaped leaves (blades 20-35 cm long) crowded in dense clusters near ends of branches native to southwestern United States (especially the Mojave Desert in California, southwestern Utah, and western Arizona).

To take advantage of these new dissociation techniques, Joshua Coon and colleagues have recently introduced a third acquisition paradigm, namely, the decision tree acquisition (DTA) approach, which has proven to significantly improve peptide identification rates (24). DTA uses precursor mass, charge, and m/z to automatically determine, in real time, whether to employ CID or ETD during MS2. Later, this acquisition technique has been extended to also employ HCD (25).
