Breeding objectives were developed for Targhee sheep under rangeland production conditions. Traits considered were those for which EPD were available from the US National Sheep Improvement Program and included direct and maternal effects on 120-d weaning weight (WW and MM, respectively); yearling weight (YW); yearling fleece weight, fiber diameter, and staple length; and percent lamb crop (PLC)...

We aimed to evaluate the effects of sex and linear quadratic components age dam at calving, as well apply a mixed model including maternal effect for genetic evaluation weaning (WW) yearling (YW) weights. The phenotypic database was composed by Charolais, Caracu, Aberdeen Angus, Canchim purebred crossbred animals. Single-trait analyses were performed using models that included WW YW traits, ign...

Increase of frequency, duration, and intensity drought heatwave related water heat crops stress are among the principal effects climate change. This paper reports: (i) effect calcite particle film (CaPF) as a mitigation strategy against in well-watered (WW) or drought-stress (D) conditions; (ii) response leaf angle variation to stomatal conductance changes induced by Aleatico grapevine cultivar...

For energies relevant to future linear colliders, √ s & 500 GeV, the WW fusion channel dominates the Higgs boson production cross section e+e− → ν̄νh0. We have calculated the one-loop corrections to this process due to fermion and sfermion loops in the context of the MSSM. As a special case, the contribution of the fermion loops in the SM has also been studied. In general, the correction is nega...

Abstract This article presents and discusses the available studies on utilization of waste wood (WW) resource for wood-based panel production. The cited literature indicated that majority WW research was from Europe conducted mainly recycled material particleboard. In addition, particleboard presented as first option product manufactured wood. There a lack recycling plywood. Physical chemical c...

In this paper we propose a new approach to tackle the problem of finding efficient non deterministic solutions for the complement of the language L 1 = { ww / w ∈ {0, 1}*} (the even length non palindromes) and the complement of the type 0 language (recursively enumerable) L 2 = {ww / w ∈ {0, 1}*}. The solutions provided are very elegant and make a subtle use of non determinism. We show that the...

We show that the broad transverse momentum distribution of the Higgs boson produced by WW fusion can provide a viable way to identify H → bb̄ decays at the LHC, if particular kinematical configurations with large rapidity gaps are selected. We estimate the event rate of the signal and of the QCD bb̄ background. We also discuss Higgs boson detection via the H → ττ and H → WW ∗ decay modes.
