This investigation was motivated by the apparent increase in genetic
variability resulting from the systematic combining of gene pools
represented by winter and spring types of wheats.
It was the objective of this study to provide information regarding
the nature of this genetic variability for nine agronomic characters
in populations...

Ethanol from corn is produced using dry grind corn process in which simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) is one of the most critical unit operations. In this work an optimal controller based on a previously validated SSF model was developed by formulating the SSF process as a Bolza problem and...
We conducted two experiments evaluating perennial ryegrass straw as a forage source for ruminants. Experiment 1 evaluated digestion and physiological variables in steers offered perennial ryegrass straw containing increasing levels of lolitrem B. Sixteen ruminally cannulated Angus X Hereford steers (231 ± 2 kg BW) were blocked by weight and...
The Upper Ojai Valley is a tectonic depression between
opposing reverse faults, Its northern border is formed
by the active, north-dipping San Cayetano fault with 6.0
km of dip-slip displacement in the Silverthread oil field
and 2.6 km displacement west of Sisar Creek; the fault
dies out farther west in...
