A Simple Polymerase Chain Reaction-based Method for the Discrimination of Three Chicken Breeds
Download2009
Mitsuhashi, T., Kubo, Y., Plastow, G.
A large number of branded chicken products exist in Japan, and in some cases, the breed of chicken is an important factor used to attract consumer interest in the retail product. In order to establish a simple method for verifying such breed claims we applied the amplified fragment length...

A simple procedure to secure an indwelling jugular vein catheter to the neck of cattle for repeated blood sampling
Download2001
MacLean, Melissa A., Zalkovic, Pavol, Ambrose, Divakar J.
Abstract A procedure to secure a jugular vein catheter system to the neck of cattle is described. A wide-mouthed polypropylene bottle attached to a halter strap provided a secure container for the catheter. This device allowed convenient access to the catheter for repeated sampling and,...

A Simulation Study For Distributed Load Measurement Of A Cylindrical Rolling Element Bearing
Download2022-06-01
Wang, Xin, Liang, Xihui, Wu, Nan
In this paper, a relationship between a load applied on the inner ring and strains measured on the outer ring of a bearing is studied. A linear relationship is confirmed under different loading conditions. Finite element analysis of a cylindrical rolling element bearing with 11 rollers is...

Rosychuk, Rhonda J., Chang, Hsing-Ming
The topic of spatial cluster detection gained attention in statistics during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Effort has been devoted to the development of methods for detecting spatial clustering of cases and events in the biological sciences, astronomy and epidemiology. More recently, research...

A Spatial Scan Statistic for Compound Poisson Data, Using Negative Binomial Distribution and Accounting for Population Stratification
Download2015
Chang, Hsing-Ming, Rosychuk, Rhonda J.
Since the interest in studying spatial relations in plant populations was raised in the 1950s, much effort has been devoted to the development of methods for spatial data analysis. One such development focused on techniques for detecting spatial clusters of cases and events in the biological...

A specialized ABC efflux transporter GcABC-G1 confers monoterpene resistance to Grosmannia clavigera, a bark beetle-associated fungal pathogen of pine trees
Download2013-01-01
Bohlmann, Jörg, Wang, Ye, Breuil, Colette, DiGuistini, Scott, Lim, Lynette, Robertson, Gordon
Grosmannia clavigera is a bark beetle-vectored pine pathogen in the mountain pine beetle epidemic in western North America. Grosmannia clavigera colonizes pines despite the trees' massive oleoresin terpenoid defences. We are using a functional genomics approach to identify G. clavigera's...

A species-diagnostic SNP panel for discriminating lodgepole pine, jack pine, and their interspecific hybrids
Download2013-01-01
Dang, S. , Cullingham, Catherine I. , Cooke, Janice E. K., Coltman, David W.
Accurate stock identification is important for forest management, yet this can be a challenge for tree species that hybridize naturally. Species discriminating molecular markers provide a means to identify stock with high accuracy. In Canada, lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta Dougl. ex Loud. var....

A Standardized Method for the Calibration of Thermodynamic Data for the Prediction of Gas Chromatographic Retention Times
A Standardized Method for the Calibration of Thermodynamic Data for the Prediction of Gas Chromatographic Retention Times
Download2013-01-01
Teague M. McGinitie, Heshmatollah Ebrahimi-Najafabadi, and James J. Harynuk
A new method for normalizing thermodynamic data to be used in the prediction of analyte retention times is presented. The method allows thermodynamic data collected on one column to be used in making predictions across columns of the same stationary phase but with varying geometries. This...
