META-ANALYSIS OF CARCASS AND MEAT CHARACTERISTICS OF YOUNG OR SUPER YOUNG STEERS AND OF DIFFERENT SEXUAL CONDITIONS FINISHED IN CONFINEMENT

Meta-analysis of carcass and meat characteristics of young or super young steers and of different sexual conditions finished in confinement

The objective was to evaluate the carcass and Extracters meat characteristics of feedlot steers based on sexual condition and age at the beginning of the finishing phase, through a systematic review and meta-analysis.The selection of articles was carried out by two reviewers, who selected articles from the Google Scholar and Scielo platforms.The cr

SNP markers tightly linked to root knot nematode resistance in grapevine (Vitis cinerea) identified by a genotyping-by-sequencing approach followed by Sequenom MassARRAY validation.

Plant parasitic nematodes, including root knot nematode Meloidogyne species, cause extensive damage to agriculture and horticultural crops.As Vitis vinifera cultivars are susceptible to root knot nematode parasitism, rootstocks resistant to these soil pests provide a Grip Handlebar sustainable approach to maintain grapevine production.Currently, mo

A Dual Enrichment Strategy Provides Soil- and Digestate-Competent Nitrous Oxide-Respiring Bacteria for Mitigating Climate Forcing in Agriculture

ABSTRACT Manipulating soil metabolism through heavy inoculation with microbes is feasible if organic wastes can be utilized as the substrate for growth and vector as a fertilizer.This, however, requires organisms active in both digestate and soil (generalists).Here, we present a dual enrichment strategy to enrich and isolate such generalists among

UNLABELED SELECTED SAMPLES IN FEATURE EXTRACTION FOR CLASSIFICATION OF HYPERSPECTRAL IMAGES WITH LIMITED TRAINING SAMPLES

Feature extraction plays a key role in hyperspectral images classification.Using unlabeled samples, often unlimitedly available, unsupervised and semisupervised feature extraction methods show better performance when limited number of training samples exists.This paper illustrates the importance of selecting appropriate unlabeled samples that used
