The cereal cyst nematode Heterodera avenae reduces wheat yield in the Pacific Northwest. Resistance and tolerance traits among spring wheat cultivars were poorly defined. Screening trials were conducted with 39 cultivars over a 2-yr period in irrigated commercial fields that were infested by H. avenae. Comparisons were made between drill...
Heterodera avenae is a cereal cyst nematode that reduces wheat yields in the Pacific Northwest USA. Barley is also susceptible but there were no previous reports of resistance or tolerance to H. avenae in the USA. Spring barley cultivars were assayed in H. avenae-infested fields over two years. Cultivars were...

In this paper we discuss the application of a range of techniques to the
verification of mission-critical flight software at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
For this type of application we want to achieve a higher level of confidence than can
be achieved through standard software testing. Unfortunately, given the current...
