BACKGROUND: Targeted capture of genomic regions reduces sequencing cost while generating higher coverage by
allowing biomedical researchers to focus on specific loci of interest, such as exons. Targeted capture also has the
potential to facilitate the generation of genomic data from DNA collected via saliva or buccal cells. DNA samples...

The ability of many domesticated animals to follow human pointing gestures to locate hidden food has led to scientific debate on the relative importance of domestication and individual experience on the origins and development of this capacity. To further explore this question we examined the influence of different prior training...
The present study examined involuntary attentional bias toward facial emotion expression. Particularly, the study examined two different attentional components for emotional processing, namely, orienting vs. disengagement. A cueing paradigm using two cue presentation times (250ms and 350ms) was used to determine if attention would be involuntarily captured by an irrelevant...
I. REPRODUCTION AND LAMB PRODUCTION Relationships among hemoglobin (Hb) genotypes and reproduction and production traits were examined in 294 four- and five-year-old North Country Cheviot, Dorset, Finnsheep or Romney x Suffolk or Columbia-type crossbred ewes. Hb BB ewe lambs were youngest at first estrus and Hb AA ewe lambs were...
The interaction of basalt melt with mantle harzburgite at low pressure might result in silica enrichment of the melt by assimilation of orthopyroxene. Experimental tests of this hypothesis show that silica-rich liquids (56 wt %) are produced by melt-orthopyroxene reaction at 1200° to 1250°C. These silica-rich liquids are enriched in...
We propose alternative mechanisms for the origin of three unusual rock suites, high-Mg andesites, NaTi basalts, and arclike rocks, that have been dredged from the Woodlark basin, southwest Pacific Ocean. We show that the high-Mg andesites and NaTi basalts are associated with an unusually cool ridge environment. The cooling is...
Hydrothermal vents appear to be the tip of the subsurface biosphere in the ocean crust. The primary prducers in this biosphere are prokaryotes that tolerate a wide variety of physical and chemical conditions and are versatile in their use of inorganic compounds to drive metabolism. A synthesis of chemical and...
