The August Krogh principle applies to plants.
The Krogh principle refers to the use of a large number of animals to study the large number of physiological problems, rather than limiting study to a particular organism for all problems. There may be organisms that are more suited to study of a particular problem than others. This same principle applies to plants. The authors are concerned with the recent trend in plant biology of using A...
متن کاملAugust Krogh *
Schack August Steenberg Krogh was born in Grenaa, Jutland. His ancestors had emigrated from Holstein and Schleswig, where his father's family had settled as small farmers three hundred years earlier. Krogh's father was a brewer, though he had been trained as a shipbuilder. Ships and the sea were some of Krogh's unceasing interests. Krogh, who was the oldest of six brothers and sisters, had alre...
متن کاملMarine mammals and Emperor penguins: a few applications of the Krogh principle.
The diving physiology of aquatic animals at sea began 50 years ago with studies of the Weddell seal. Even today with the advancements in marine recording and tracking technology, only a few species are suitable for investigation. The first experiments were in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica. In this paper are examples of what was learned in Antarctica and elsewhere. Some methods employed relied on wi...
متن کاملControl analysis, mitochondrial bioenergetics and programmed cell death: the Krogh principle in practice.
FOR HALF A CENTURY, comparative physiology has been profoundly influenced by the Nobel laureate August Krogh’s dictum (4) that “for a large number of problems, there will be some animal of choice with which it can be most conveniently studied.” As one who did research on insect respiration, Krogh would have greatly admired the work of Chamberlin (1) appearing in this issue of the American Journ...
متن کاملExperimental evolution and the Krogh principle: generating biological novelty for functional and genetic analyses.
August Krogh counseled the careful selection of the best subject organism on which to undertake mechanistic physiological research. But what if an organism with the desired properties does not exist? It is now within our power to engineer organisms genetically to achieve novel combinations of traits. I propose that it is a logical extension of the Krogh principle that we use biological methodol...
