Measurements on growth traits up to 41 years of age
from 68 progeny sites in eight first-generation breeding
zones of coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii
[MIRB.] FRANCO var. menziesii) in the US Pacific Northwest
were used to investigate age trends of genetic parameters
and to determine optimum age of selection. Heritabilities...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether an increase in daily tooth brushing frequency in children was predicted by either a) having a strong intention to brush twice a day or b) their parents receiving information about their new caries experience.
BASIC RESEARCH DESIGN: Secondary data analyses were conducted on two waves of...

High-resolution infrared absorption spectra have been analyzed for two bicyclo[111]pentane isotopologues, C₅H₈ (-d₀) and C₅H₇D (-d₁), where in the latter the D-atom replaces a hydrogen on the C₃ symmetry axis such that the molecular symmetry is reduced from D₃ₕ to C₃ᵥ. Two (a"₂) parallel bands, v₁₇ and v₁₈, of bicyclopentane-d₀...
Production of Kþ mesons in charged-current νμ interactions on plastic scintillator (CH) is measured using MINERvA exposed to the low-energy NuMI beam at Fermilab. Timing information is used to isolate a sample of 885 charged-current events containing a stopping Kþ which decays at rest. The differential cross section in Kþ...
MOTIVATION: Estimation of bacterial community composition from
a high-throughput sequenced sample is an important task in
metagenomics applications. Since the sample sequence data
typically harbors reads of variable lengths and different levels of
biological and technical noise, accurate statistical analysis of such
data is challenging. Currently popular estimation methods are...
