The use of modern metabolomics and proteomics to address the health challenges facing the Canadian cattle industry
DownloadFall 2013
Naturally cattle only consumed grass, hay and other forage crops but modern cattle industry has started shifting them from a natural grazing diet to a more balanced grain-rich diet. However, feeding dairy cows grain rich diet is associated with a rapid release of large amounts of SCFA that have...

The use of small ephemeral wetlands and streams by amphibians in the mixedwood forest of boreal Alberta
DownloadSpring 2011
Identifying amphibian habitats within a landscape provides a tool for managing their populations. I identified if and how amphibians used small ephemeral wetlands (≤ 0.1ha) and streams within the mixedwood forest area managed by Daishowa Marubeni International Ltd. near Peace River, north-western...

The value of stormwater wetlands for supporting multiple life-history stages of the wood frog (Lithobates sylvaticus) in the City of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
DownloadFall 2010
I reviewed 32 urban amphibian studies from North America and found most amphibians respond negatively to urbanization (69 negative responses, 6 positive and 35 no effect). Additionally, I conducted amphibian surveys (adult, egg, larvae, and metamorphs) at 75 wetlands located throughout the City...

Ungulates are known to avoid predation by grouping up, increasing vigilance, and reducing residency time among preferred habitats. Similarly, shifting return rates may represent a means of pre-emptively minimizing exposure to risk by being less predictable on the landscape to predators. We...

Tissue-specific gene expression of two class III Arabidopsis peroxidases under aluminum stress
DownloadSpring 2010
Class III peroxidases have been identified as secreted proteins involved in plant defense, auxin metabolism, cell wall modification, and regulation of reactive oxygen species. Transcriptome analysis of Arabidopsis has identified many class III peroxidases that respond to aluminum stress. The...
