Elisabete
Background The recently constructed river buffalo whole-genome radiation hybrid panel (BBURH5000) has already been used to generate preliminary radiation hybrid (RH) maps for several chromosomes, and buffalo-bovine comparative chromosome maps have been constructed. Here, we present the...

A high resolution radiation hybrid map of bovine chromosome 14 identifies scaffold rearrangement in the latest bovine assembly
Download2007
Stothard, P., Wang, Z., de Givry, S., Marques, E., Moore, S. S., Womack, J., Murdoch, B.
Background Radiation hybrid (RH) maps are considered to be a tool of choice for fine mapping closely linked loci, considering that the resolution of linkage maps is determined by the number of informative meiosis and recombination events which may require very large mapping populations....

Appreciating the complex nature of adolescent high-risk behaviour can have far reaching implications for the development of effective educational programming. The purpose of this study was to examine the general knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs of adolescents between the ages of 12 and 18, from...

Spring 2014
Adolescents’ safety on the Internet is a prime concern in society. Sexual predators use the online environment regularly to solicit adolescents for sexual purposes; however, we know very little about the experiences of adolescents who become victimized in this way. This research used a thematic...

The recognition of virus infected cells by cytotoxic T lymphocytes is dependent on antigen presentation by MHC class I on the cell surface. Antigen presentation is critically dependent on the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP), which facilitates the transport of peptides across...

Are Sex and Estrogen Modulators of Sympathetic Vascular Control in Resting and Contracting Skeletal Muscle?
DownloadSpring 2018
The purpose of this thesis was to investigate whether sex and estrogen modulate sympathetic neurovascular control in resting and contracting skeletal muscle. This thesis also investigated the hypothesis that the effects of sex and estrogen on neurovascular control would be mediated by the signal...

Cohen, M. B., Aguda, R. M., Bottrell, D. G., Gould, F. L., Litsinger, J. A., Theunis, W., Peferoen, M., Cruz, W. T., Decock, C., Lambert, B.
Abstract: Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner isolates were detected in 57% of 801 samples of rice grain dust, soil, rice field arthropods, and miscellaneous habitats (rice straw compost and mammal faeces) collected at 100 sites in the Philippines. The collection yielded 3950 isolates of B....

Cervid Prion Protein Polymorphisms Modulate the Diversity of Chronic Wasting Disease Prion Strains
DownloadSpring 2017
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a contagious prion disease spreading and emerging in wild and captive Cervidae species worldwide. Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders occurring in various mammalian species including deer, elk, sheep, cattle and humans. Central to prion...

Pfeffer, B. A., Chader, G. J., Zakeri, Z. F., Wu, S. P., Bernstein, S. L., Wong, P., Chambers, M. L.
Purpose: The clusterin gene encodes a multi-functional protein that has been identified in different tissues, including a number of different eye tissues, primarily in the mouse and to a much lesser extent in humans. Clusterin has been implicated in a number of cellular processes such as lipid...
