Abstract:
Genetic improvement has been an integral part of loblolly pine plantation forestry in southern United States for about 60 years with focus on improving timber yield, wood quality, and pest and disease resistance. Advances in techniques of genetic selection, breeding, and propagation of planting material have made it possible to achieve genetic gains that are likely to result in significant changes in loblolly pine stand dynamics. Height-age relationships, height and diameter relationships and distributions, and intraspecific competition were investigated in second generation open-pollinated, c

The increasingly important role of the family in providing home care for a relative diagnosed with dementia has become a recognised feature of contemporary heahh care.

The relationship held with a key-worker may significantly influence their ability and motivation to undertake the tasks and lifestyle changes necessary for this role. This study's aim was to examine this relationship in detail and generate a theoretical explanation allowing a cle

Abstract:
Glutathione transferase (GST) A2-2 is the human enzyme most efficient in catalyzing azathioprine activation. Structure-function relationships were sought explaining the higher catalytic efficiency compared to other alpha class GSTs. By screening a DNA shuffling library, five recombined segments were identified that were conserved among the most active mutants. Mutational analysis confirmed the importance of these short segments as their insertion into low-active GSTs introduced higher azathioprine activity. Besides, H-site mutagenesis led to decreased azathioprine activity when the targeted po

Abstract:
On a regular basis, project managers concentrate their efforts on critical and near-critical activities. However, the concepts of total float and critical path lose their significance after applying resource-constrained scheduling (RCS) methodologies. RCS techniques solve the resource conflicts but create phantom float in the schedules (i.e., a float that does not exist). RCS techniques overlook the resources relationships between activities that compete for the same but unavailable resources. Therefore, each time an activity uses this apparent float (phantom float), there is a resource violat

Abstract:
The process of pre-mRNA splicing involves the removal of intronic sequences from the pre-mRNA and it is directed by intronic cis acting elements know as the 5' and 3' splice sites that mark the boundaries of the exons. Over the two decades, however, it has become clear that exons encode for auxiliary splicing signals that either enhance or perturb their inclusion in the final mRNA product. It is possible that the evolution of mRNA sequences could be conditioned by the presence of these exonic cis-acting splicing regulatory elements and not mainly by the selection of optimal protein function.
