To facilitate genome-guided breeding in potato, we developed an 8303 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) marker array using potato genome and transcriptome resources. To validate the Infinium 8303 Potato Array, we developed linkage maps from two diploid populations (DRH and D84) and compared these maps with the assembled potato genome sequence. Both populations used the doubled monoploid refer...

Logarithmic and variable-power equations that use the bed D84 grain size as a roughness metric reproduce general trend of flow resistance in streams with coarse beds, but they are unreliable for predictions individual reaches. For site-specific application these equations, I propose an effective height can be calibrated by making single measurement. test this idea using published velocity-depth...

A step-pool bed morphology often develops in steep mountain streams. The main controlling parameters of step formation and stability are hydraulic forcing, sediment transport, granular effects (i.e., grain-grain interlocking, jamming). Previous studies found macrorough sidewalls to further increase due grain-sidewall interlocking but the effect reduced shear stress caused by sidewall friction w...

Biomechanical tests are widely used in animal studies on osteoporotic fracture healing. However, the biomechanical recovery process is still unknown, leading to difficulty in choosing time points for biomechanical tests and in correctly assessing osteoporotic fracture healing. To determine the biomechanical recovery process during osteoporotic fracture healing, studies on osteoporotic femur fra...

Genes associated with gametic and zygotic selection could underlie segregation distortion, observed as alterations of expected Mendelian genotypic frequencies in mapping populations. We studied highly dense genetic maps based on single nucleotide polymorphisms to elucidate the genetic nature of distorted segregation in potato. Three intra- and interspecific diploid segregating populations were ...

It is shown that interim dynamically consistent trade may be supported among agents who have resolute (non-consequential) choice preferences.  2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. JEL classification: D81; D82; D84

Common knowledge of a Borel event is shown to be a co-analytic event, and is therefore universally measurable. An extension of Aumann’s “agreement theorem” regarding common knowledge of posterior probabilities is proved in the framework of a measure space defined on a complete, separable, σ-compact metric space.
