Trans-rectal ultrasound-coupled near-infrared optical tomography of the prostate. Part II: Experimental demonstration
(Optica Publishing Group, 2008-10-15)
We demonstrate trans-rectal optical tomography of the prostate using an endo-rectal near-infrared (NIR) applicator integrated with a transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) probe. The endo-rectal NIR applicator incorporated a design ...
Nitrogen use and biomass distribution in culms of winter wheat populations selected from grain-only and dual-purpose systems
(Crop Science Society of America, 2007-02-06)
Beginning in late fall and ending at jointing in early spring, winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) crops in the southern Great Plains are often grazed by stocker cattle (Bos taurus L.) and then harvested for grain. ...
Comparative genomic analysis of the Tribolium immune system
(BioMed Central, 2007-08-29)
Background: Tribolium castaneum is a species of Coleoptera, the largest and most diverse order of all eukaryotes. Components of the innate immune system are hardly known in this insect, which is in a key phylogenetic ...

Comparison of single-nucleotide polymorphisms and microsatellites in detecting quantitative trait loci for alcoholism: The Collaborative Study on the Genetics of Alcoholism
(BioMed Central, 2005-12-30)
Background: The feasibility of effectively analyzing high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) maps in whole genome scans of complex traits is not known. The purpose of this study was to compare variance components ...
Plane curves with small linear orbits, I
(Association des Annales de l'Institut Fourier, 2000)
In this paper we compute the degree of the closure of the linear orbits of most curves with positive dimensional stabilizers. Our tool is a nonsingular variety dominating the orbit closure, which we construct by a blow-up ...
THz Zenneck surface wave (THz surface plasmon) propagation on a metal sheet
(AIP Publishing, 2006-02-08)
We present an experimental study of the propagation of the THz Zenneck surface wave on an aluminum sheet, now more commonly denoted as the THz surface plasmon (TSP). Here, the TSP pulse is generated by coupling the THz ...
Preliminary study of illumination levels in university and elementary classrooms in Campina Grande, Brazil
(Science Publications, 2007)
The purpose of our study was to provide preliminary data on light levels used in university and elementary school classrooms in Campina Grande, Brazil with the aim of providing Brazilian politicians and educators with data ...
Model selection for discrete dependent variables: Better statistics for better steaks
(Western Agricultural Economics Association, 2004-12)
Little research has been conducted on evaluating out-of-sample forecasts of discrete dependent variables. This study describes the large and small sample properties of two forecast evaluation techniques for discrete dependent ...
