An Assessment of Population Structure in Eight Breeds of Cattle Using a Whole Genome SNP Panel
Download2008
Schnabel, R. D., Wang, Z., Taylor, J. F., Gill, C. A., Van Tassell, C. P., Gao, C., Aerts, J., Williams, J. L., Neto, E. D., Murdoch, B. M., Matukumalli, L. K., Coppieters, W., McKay, S. D., Mannenl, H., Crews, D., Moore, S. S.
Background Analyses of population structure and breed diversity have provided insight into the origin and evolution of cattle. Previously, these studies have used a low density of microsatellite markers, however, with the large number of single nucleotide polymorphism markers that are now...

Lepage, B. A., Currah, R. S., Stockey, R. A.
The middle Eocene Princeton chert locality in southern British Columbia, Canada, contains one of the best-preserved permineralized Tertiary floral assemblages known in North America. The quality of pres- ervation of the vascular plant and fungal remains is exquisite because anatomical and...

Jones, S. D. M., Newman, J. A., Vincent, B. C., Price, M. A.
A total of 120 crossbred heifers (initial weight = 270 ± 3 kg) were used in a project to evaluate a once-calved-heifer system of beef production. They were reared on a cereal silage–grain diet and, beginning at an average age of 385 d, exposed during a 6-wk breeding period to bulls of breeds...

A replication study was undertaken to validate a model of quality of life (QOL) generated in an earlier study on a random sample of 202 older adults. Pathways found to be significant were retested using QOL data from a convenience sample of 420 older adults. Using path analysis, we found that...

Metrics and sampling designs for detecting trends in the distribution of spawning Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.)
Download2012-04-03
Peacock, Stephanie J., Holt, Carrie A.
The distribution of individuals among populations and in space may contribute to their resilience under environmental variability. Changes in distribution may indicate the loss of genetically distinct subpopulations, the deterioration of habitat capacity, or both. The distribution of Pacific...

Lyme borreliosis in Canada: Biological diversity and diagnostic complexity from an entomological perspective
Download2009
Sperling, F. A. H., Sperling, J. L. H.
Lyme borreliosis (LB), also known as Lyme disease, is emerging as a serious tick-borne illness across Canada. More than three decades of research on LB in North America and Europe have provided a large, complex body of research involving well-documented difficulties at several levels. However,...

Ferreira, R. S., Robertson, P. K.
Abstract: An interpretation method has been developed to incorporate nonlinear soil behavior to interpret undrained pressure-meter test results. The method makes use of both the loading and unloading portions of the pressuremeter test. The proposed interpretation method accepts that some level of...

Numerical and experimental comparison of confinement effects on a Fully-Passive Oscillating-Foil Turbine
Download2022-06-01
Gunther, K., Mann, S., Dumas, G., Oshkai, P.
A numerical and experimental comparison of a fully-passive oscillating-foil turbine operating in different confinement levels is conducted to assert how well CFD-based FSI simulations can predict the performances of the turbine. It is found the present 3D URANS simulations match reasonably well...

Bilingualism is often considered an inappropriate developmental choice for children with specific language impairment (SLI) because, according to a widespread belief, these children’s limited capacity for language would be overtaxed by learning two linguistic systems. However, there has not been...
