Improving the accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction using structural alignment
Download2006
Gallin, W.J., Wishart, D.S., Montgomerie, S., Sundararaj, S.
Background: The accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction has steadily improved over the past 30 years. Now many secondary structure prediction methods routinely achieve an accuracy (Q3) of about 75%. We believe this accuracy could be further improved by including structure (as opposed...

A School-Based Randomized Controlled Trial to Improve Physical Activity among Iranian High School Girls
Download2008
Ghofranipou, F., Niknami, S., Taymoori, P., Berry, T. R., Lubans, D.
Background: Physical activity (PA) rates decline precipitously during the high school years and are consistently lower among adolescent girls than adolescent boys. Due to cultural barriers, this problem might be exacerbated in female Iranian adolescents. However, little intervention research has...

Performance and stability of performance of spring wheat variety mixtures in organic and conventional management systems in western Canada
Download2009
O'Donovan, John T., Navabi, Alireza, Kaut, A. H. E. E., Spaner, Dean, Mason, Heather E.
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) variety mixtures represent a relatively unexplored avenue for maintaining and stabilizing yield for both organic and conventional producers. The present study examined the responses of three Canadian western red spring wheat varieties in sole crop and in variety...

Application of genomics-based tools leading to the identification of markers on bovine chromosome 14 influencing milk production and carcass quality traits
DownloadFall 2009
Genetic improvements in beef and dairy cattle can bring significant advances in satisfying the global food demand, which is expected to double by 2050. Several DNA markers have been identified on bovine chromosome 14 (BTA14), but low mapping resolution prevents their refinement for identification...

Environmental factors affecting an experimental low-density mass grave near Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
DownloadFall 2010
The investigation of mass graves involves aspects of high political, judicial, and emotional impact. Understanding how bodies held within mass graves change between the time they are deposited and the time they are discovered (the realm of forensic taphonomy) is vital for competent collection of...
