Digitalis thapsi than those found in "D. purpurea". According to Dutch botanist Herman Boerhaave, "Digitalis" species are highly poisonous if directly ingested. All parts are poisonous. Besides normal cultivation, "D. thapsi" has been propagated using explant culture, a technique employed for the isolation of cells from piece(s) of tissue for harvesting. Auxins NAA, 2,4-D and IAA alone or combined with BA produced a callus. NAA caused root formation and BA shoot formation. NAA and BA combined induced organ generation much effectively. Plantlets obtained this way had a survival rate of 70%. Joseph Gottlieb Kölreuter, a German botanist, observed that "D. thapsi" had
Mountaineer Power Plant that coal now comes via barge on the Ohio River to an elaborate coal unloading and storage facility.The other portion of coal comes from Big River Mining. An underground coal mine right across the street from the plant. It is mined, cleaned, processed, and shipped by a belt line across the street to the power plant. This single boiler, dual turbine plant produces enough energy to power a city approximately the size of Columbus, Ohio. The plant is connected to the grid by 765 kilovolt transmission lines (the highest rated voltage used in the United States). The location of the
