Abstract:
... SOCIETAL IMPACT STATEMENT: Genetic engineering is used to introduce new genes into plants to obtain crops with novel traits. However, the unintended effects of genetically engineered (GE) crops on nontarget organisms—such as beneficial insects—are a topic of much concern. We evaluate the potential unintended effects of pollen from three GE maize and seven commercialized conventional maize lines on ...

Abstract:
... Genomic predictions have been applied for dairy cattle for more than a decade with great success, but genomic estimated breeding values (GEBV) are not widely available for crossbred dairy cows. The large reference populations already in place for genomic evaluations of many pure breeds makes it interesting to use the accurate solutions, in particular the estimated marker effects, from these evalua ...

Vaccination of dogs against leptospirosis is an important approach to preventing clinical disease, or reducing disease severity, as well as reducing transmission of the infection to humans. Although it is generally considered to be a ‘core’ vaccine, there is limited information on the level o ...
