Alberta grassland plant trait data
2020-06-11
Plant trait data collected and processed by the Cahill Lab in Experimental Plant Ecology. The core data was collected with funding provided by the Rangeland Research Institute, University of Alberta. Included are raw data for core plant traits, including root and leaf characteristics. Standard...

Alterations of innate immunity reactants in transition dairy cows before clinical signs of lameness
Download2015
Dervishi, Elda, Hailemariam, Dagnachew, Zhang, Guanshi, Goldansaz, Seyed A., Deng, Qilan, Dunn, Suzanna M., Ametaj, Burim N.
The objectives of this study were to evaluate metabolic and innate immunity alterations in the blood of transition dairy cows before, during, and after diagnosis of lameness during periparturient period. Blood samples were collected from the coccygeal vain once per week before morning feeding...

Altered microRNA expression in bovine subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissues from cattle under different diet
Download2012
Guan, Leluo, Romao, Josue M., McAllister, Tim, He, Maolong, Jin, Weiwu
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of molecular regulators found to participate in numerous biological processes, including adipogenesis in mammals. This study aimed to evaluate the differences of miRNA expression between bovine subcutaneous (backfat) and visceral fat depots (perirenal...

Willing, Benjamin P., Finlay, B. Brett , Thanachayanont, Teerawat, Croxen, Matthew, Vacharaksa, Anjalee
Host resistance to bacterial infections is thought to be dictated by host genetic factors. Infections by the natural murine enteric pathogen Citrobacter rodentium (used as a model of human enteropathogenic and enterohaemorrhagic E. coli infections) vary between mice strains, from mild...

Analysis of genotype-environment interactions from a genome-wide survey of quantitative trait loci in a barley population
Download2010-01-01
Ham, Bangjoo, Spaner, Dean, Rahman, M. H., Yeh, F. C., Yang, Rong-Cai
The presence of genotype-environment interactions (GE) leads to the imperfect genetic correlation between the measurements of the same trait in different environments, thereby limiting the ability of plant breeders to identify superior breeding lines or best cultivars across the environments. We...

Analysis of linear and nonlinear genotype × environment interaction
2014
The usual analysis of genotype × environment interaction (G × E) is based on the linear regression of genotypic performance on environmental changes (e.g., classic stability analysis). This linear model may often lead to lumping together of the non-linear responses to the whole range of...

The iron status and diet of Inuit infants living in northern Quebec who were part of a prospective cohort study was described. The prevalence of anemia (hemoglobin values >2SD below the reference mean) was 21.1% (23/109), 47.4% (55/116) and 37.7% (46/122) at 2, 6 and 12 months, respectively. The...

Toullec, Jean-Yves, Meng, Yan, Guan, Leluo, Clark, Melody S., Moore, Stephen S., Thorne, Michael A. S., Peck, Lloyd S.
Background The Antarctic krill Euphausia superba is a keystone species in the Antarctic food chain. Not only is it a significant grazer of phytoplankton, but it is also a major food item for charismatic megafauna such as whales and seals and an important Southern Ocean fisheries crop. Ecological...

Antifungal activity of secondary plant metabolites from potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.): Glycoalkaloids and phenolic acids show synergistic effects
Download2016-01-01
Sánchez-Maldonado, A., Schieber, A., Gänzle, Michael G.
Aims To study the antifungal effects of the potato secondary metabolites α-solanine, α-chaconine, solanidine and caffeic acid, alone or combined. Methods and Results Resistance to glycoalkaloids varied among the fungal species tested, as derived from minimum inhibitory concentrations assays....

Antimicrobial activity of bioactive starch packaging films against Listeria monocytogenes and reconstituted meat microbiota on ham
Download2019-01-01
Zhao, Yujia, Teixeira, Januana S., Saldaña, Marleny D.A., Gänzle, Michael G.
Contamination with spoilage organisms and Listeria monocytogenes are major concerns for quality and safety of cooked ready-to-eat (RTE) meat products. Thus, the objective of this study was to investigate the use of antimicrobial starch packaging films to control competitive microbiota and L....
