Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) hatching in the Hudson Bay system: Testing of the freshwater winter refuge hypothesis
Download2022-01-01
Schembri, Sarah, Deschepper, Inge, Myers, Paul G., Sirois, Pascal, Fortier, Louis, Bouchard, Caroline, Maps, Frederic
Buoyant Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) eggs are found at the surface or at the ice-water interface in winter. While winter temperatures in saline waters fall below 0 degrees C, the temperature in areas affected by under-ice river plumes is slightly higher. Under-ice river plumes may therefore...

BGI-RIS: An integrated information resource and comparative analysis workbench for rice genomics
Download2004
Wang, J., Chen, Y., Zhao, H., Dai, M., Zhao, W., Huang, X., Zhang, Y., Ren. X., Jiao, Y., Wong, G., Wei, S., Ni, P., Yu, J., Zhang, J., Li, S., Yang, H., Fu, J., He, X.
Rice is a major food staple for the world's population and serves as a model species in cereal genome research. The Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI) has long been devoting itself to sequencing, information analysis and biological research of the rice and other crop genomes. In order to facilitate...

Construction of bovine whole-genome radiation hybrid and linkage maps using high-throughput genotyping
Download2007
Williams, J. L., Moore, S. S., Wang, Z., McKay, S. D., Murdoch, B. M.
High-density whole-genome maps are essential for ordering genes or markers and aid in the assembly of genome sequence. To increase the density of markers on the bovine radiation hybrid map, and hence contribute to the assembly of the bovine genome sequence, an Illumina® BeadStation was used to...

Creation of a Dynamic Risk Ranking Methodology for Multiple Storm Events and its Application to the City of Edmonton
DownloadFall 2022
Globally, municipalities have been experiencing flooding events caused by riverine, coastal, or urban flooding and have applied both many and varied mitigation measures. In most flood mitigation cases, financial investment for mitigation improvements was approved post flooding. This reactive...

Genomic and phenotypic comparison of Lactobacillus reuteri isolates from food and intestinal ecosystems provides insights to probiotic applications
DownloadFall 2018
Some of the food fermenting lactobacilli are derived from the animal intestine. Lactobacillus reuteri provides a model organism to study molecular mechanisms of ecological adaptation from gut to food. The overall objective of this dissertation was to characterize ecological fitness of L. reuteri...

Seligmann, B., Deyholos, M., Kris, R. M., Felder, S., Botros, I., Galbraith, D. W., Martel, R., Hinton, J., Lambert, G. M.
High-throughput gene expression analysis of genes expressed during salt stress was performed using a novel multiplexed quantitative nuclease protection assay that involves customized DNA microarrays printed within the individual wells of 96-well plates. The levels of expression of the transcripts...
