The genome of the multicapsid nuclear polyhedrosis virus of
Orgyia pseudotsugata (OpMNPV) was mapped by examining overlapping
Hindlll fragments from cosmid clones which had been constructed
from partial Hindlll digests of viral DNA. Five OpMNPV cosmid
clones containing fragments encompassing the entire OpMNPV genome
were hybridized to blots of DNA...
This paper examines the probability that a random polynomial of specific degree over a field has a specific number of distinct roots in that field. Probabilities are found for random quadratic polynomials with respect to various probability measures on the real numbers and p-adic numbers. In the process, some properties...
