In-vitro plants in slow-growth storage must be routinely evaluated for repropagation
and assessment of viability. It is often difficult to determine plant health by visual
assessment due to variation in growth patterns and plant structure among genera. In
order to evaluate cold-stored germplasm, laboratories need more effective approaches for
viability...
Animated cartography is still a new field. It has been experimented with for years, but it
has not gained general usage except partially in use by the news media. Nevertheless, certain
subjects cry out for displaying the patterns of movement over time, such as historical patterns of

We begin with a story that introduces the immigrant in the room, the locavore’s blind spots, and the need to move beyond mainstream environmentalism and embrace social justice. In the...
Three experiments evaluated the effects of different management strategies on immune function and performance of feeder cattle. The objective of experiment 1 was to compare the effects of anticipating, delaying, or vaccinating against Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) at the time of weaning and feedlot entry on growth, DMI, and plasma...
