The delayed surplus response for hops related to market dynamics
Agricultural Economics (AGRICECON), 2022 The cyclical nature of hop market pricing has been recorded since the 16th century, but the effect had never previously been documented or quantified. Using Bayesian inference in an analysis of data regarding the US hop industry collected and published ...

Linkage Disequilibrium in Domestic Sheep [PDF]
Genetics, 2002 Abstract The last decade has seen a dramatic increase in the number of livestock QTL mapping studies. The next challenge awaiting livestock geneticists is to determine the actual genes responsible for variation of economically important traits.

Rényi’s Entropy, Statistical Order and van der Waals Gas
Entropy, 2022 The notion of statistical order derives from the disequilibrium concept introduced by López-Ruiz, Mancini, and Calbet thirty years ago. In this effort, it is shown that the disequilibrium is intimately linked to the celebrated Rényi entropy.

Linkage Disequilibrium in the Domesticated Pig [PDF]
Genetics, 2004 Abstract This study investigated the extent of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in two genomic regions (on chromosomes 4 and 7) in five populations of domesticated pigs. LD was measured with D′ and tested for significance with the Fisher exact test.

A simple PCR-RFLP method for genetic phase determination in compound heterozygotes
Frontiers in Genetics, 2012 When susceptibility to diseases is caused by cis-effects of multiple alleles at adjacent polymorphic sites, it may be difficult to assess with confidence the genetic phase and identify individuals carrying the risk haplotype.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Exploring Order–Disorder Transitions Using a Two-State Master Equation
FoundationsIn this study, we explore the order–disorder transition in the dynamics of a straightforward master equation that describes the evolution of a probability distribution between two states, p1 and p2 (with p1+p2=1).

Unpacking the meanings of ‘virtual spirituality’ in Vuyani Vellem’s critique of Empire
HTS Teologiese Studies/Theological Studies, 2020 The modest goal of this article is to creatively unpack and render more accessible (mainly by means of cultural illustrations) Vuyani Vellem’s account of the virtual spirituality of Empire.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Low‐level ambient benzene exposure is associated with increased risks of multiple brain disorders in urban adults. Genetic susceptibility modifies these associations, while plasma proteomics points to potential biological pathways linking benzene exposure to adverse brain health.

Distances in Probability Space and the Statistical Complexity Setup
Entropy, 2011 Statistical complexity measures (SCM) are the composition of two ingredients: (i) entropies and (ii) distances in probability-space. In consequence, SCMs provide a simultaneous quantification of the randomness and the correlational structures present in ...
