Pollen-mediated gene flow from transgenic safflower ( Carthamus tinctorius L.) intended for plant molecular farming to conventional safflower
Download2009
Christianson, Jed A., Topinka, A. Keith C., Hall, Linda M., Yang, Rong-Cai, Strobeck, Curtis, Cathcart, R. Jason, McPherson, Marc A., Good, Allen G., McKenzie, Ross H.
Field experiments were conducted in Chile and western Canada to measure short-distance (0 to 100 m) outcrossing from transgenic safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) intended for plant molecular farming to nontransgenic commodity safflower of the same variety. The transgenic safflower used as the...

Ruminal acidosis and the rapid onset of ruminal parakeratosis in a mature dairy cow: A case report
Download2009
Hook, Sarah E., AlZahal, Ousama, McBride, Brian W., Croom, Jim, Steele, Michael A.
A mature dairy cow was transitioned from a high forage (100% forage) to a high-grain (79% grain) diet over seven days. Continuous ruminal pH recordings were utilized to diagnose the severity of ruminal acidosis. Additionally, blood and rumen papillae biopsies were collected to describe the...

Holding the high ground: The position of secured creditors in consumer bankruptcies and proposals
Download1999
This article examines the position of secured creditors in the event of a consumer debtor's bankruptcy or the filing of a consumer proposal, as determined by the federal and provincial laws of Canada. Secured creditors in Canada are in a remarkably powerful position relative to other claimants in...

Science powers commerce: Mapping the language, justifications, and perceptions of the drive to commercialize in the context of Canadian research
Download2015
Ogbogu, Ubaka, Caulfield, Timothy
Due to the high value that it placed upon the ownership of land, the common law traditionally was wary of intervening if the plaintiff non-contractually improved the defendant’s land. For the most part, liability was imposed only if the landowner acted unconscionably according to the doctrine of...

Modeling the paleocirculation of the Mediterranean: The Last Glacial Maximum and the Holocene with emphasis on the formation of sapropel S1
Download1998
Myers, Paul G., Rohling, Eelco J., Haines, Keith
An ocean general circulation model is used to simulate the thermohaline circulation in the Mediterranean sea during the last glacial maximum and the Holocene, when the sapropel S1 was deposited. The model is forced by prescribed surface temperatures and salinities, where present-day values lead...

Fertilization effects on interactions between above-and belowground competition in an old field
Download1999
Recent theoretical and experimental studies have addressed whether the relative importance of aboveground and belowground competition changes along gradients of biomass productivity. Results have been contradictory, with some researchers finding a decrease in the importance of belowground...

Samson, J. C., Rankin, Robert, Wei, C. Q., Frycz, P.
A three-dimensional compressible resistive magnetohydrodynamic simulation code, with inclusion of the fully generalized Ohm's law, has been developed to study the nonlinear evolution of field line resonances in Earth's magnetosphere. A simple Cartesian box model of an inhomogeneous plasma with...

McGarry, Roisin, Ozga, Jocelyn A., Reinecke, Dennis M.
Fruit growth in saskatoons (Amelanchier alnifolia Nutt.), an emerging horticultural crop across the Canadian prairies, results from development of the mesocarp and the endocarp-locular-ovular structure which includes the developing seeds. Contribution of these tissues to fruit size was assessed...

Use of digital images for evaluation of factors responsible for visual preference of apples by consumers
Download2002-01-01
Cliff, Margaret, Sanford, Katherine, Wismer, Wendy, Hampson, Cheryl
This research used digital images to explore some of the factors responsible for consumer preference of visual characteristics of apples (Malus ×domestica Borkh.). The images systematically varied in color and shape (Expt. A: 9 images) and type, shape, and background color (Expt. B: 10 images),...
