Background: High birthweight is an established risk factor for childhood leukaemia.
Its association with other childhood cancers is less clear, with studies hampered by low
case numbers. Methods: We used two large independent datasets to explore risk associations between
birthweight and all subtypes of childhood cancer. Data for 16 554...

We examined the spatial distribution of crime incidents on USDA Forest Service lands using a geographic
information system and several spatial analysis techniques. Our primary objective was to examine
whether patterns existed in the spatial distribution of crime and to explore the relationship of patterns
to other geographic features using...
Altimetric data from the TOPEX/POSEIDON mission will be used for studies of global ocean circulation and marine geophysics. However, it is first necessary to remove the ocean tides, which are aliased in the raw data. The tides are constrained by two distinct types of information: the hydrodynamic equations which the...
Drosophila suzukii (Spotted Wing Drosophila) has recently become a serious invasive pest of fruit crops in the USA, Canada, and Europe, leading to substantial economic losses. D. suzukii is a direct pest, ovipositing directly into ripe or ripening fruits; in contrast, other Drosophilids utilize decaying or blemished fruits and are...
Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’ (Lso) is a bacterium that infects solanaceous crops and causes plant decline and yield losses, especially in potato and tomato. Lso is transmitted to these hosts by the potato psyllid (Bactericera cockerelli Sulc) vector. B. cockerelli host plants are not limited to crop plants, but also include...
The potato psyllid, Bactericera cockerelli (Šulc), is
a vector of the bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter
solanacearum’ (Lso) that has been linked to the economically
devastating zebra chip disease of potato. To date, four haplotypes
of the potato psyllid have been identified and include
Central, Western, Northwestern, and Southwestern haplotypes.
Zebra chip...
