Worcester College of Technology: report from the Inspectorate (FEFC inspection report; 70/97 and 47/01) [PDF]
, 2001 The Further Education Funding Council has a legal duty to make sure further education in England is properly assessed. The FEFC’s inspectorate inspects and reports on each college of further education according to a four-year cycle. This record comprises

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Herbarium specimens are widely distributed in space and time, thereby capturing diverse conditions. We reconstructed specimen ‘lived’ climate from knowledge of germination cues and collection dates for 14 annual species in the Streptanthus (s.l.) clade (Brassicaceae) to ask: which climate attributes best explain specimen phenological stage and ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Direct seeding for ecological restoration is a cost‐effective and scalable method, but its effectiveness largely relies on choosing the appropriate species. Understanding the criteria used to select species is critical for optimizing restoration outcomes, especially in the face of limited resources and ongoing environmental changes.

Early‐Life Respiratory Emissions of CO₂, CH₄, and N₂O in Pre‐Weaned Dairy‐Bred Calves
Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from livestock are a major contributor to climate change, with cattle known to be the principal contributor through enteric fermentation, manure management, and metabolic processes. This study investigates the emission rates of CO₂, CH₄, and N₂O in pre‐weaned calves aged 12 to 86 days, focusing on the ...

Genomic Analysis of Taurine and Indicine Ancestry in the Montana Tropical Composite Population
Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 2, Page 273-282, March 2026.ABSTRACT The Montana Tropical cattle, a Taurine and Indicine composite, were developed in Brazil since 1994 and were based on crossing four biological types of cattle: zebu (mainly Nelore), tropical adapted taurine (mainly Senepol and Romosinuano), British taurine (mainly Angus) and continental taurine (as Charolais, Simental and Limousin).

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 2, Page 283-295, March 2026.ABSTRACT In order to investigate the applicability and efficiency of genomic selection for growth and carcass traits in Nordic beef cattle, single‐step genomic BLUP (ssGBLUP) was applied in 4321 Charolais and 4532 Hereford animals with information on approximately 43,000 SNPs each.

A Typology of Australian Terrestrial Bird Communities
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Holistic measurement of the response of fauna communities to interventions requires suitable community condition metrics. However, the development of such metrics is hindered by the absence of broad‐scale typologies at suitable spatial and ecological resolutions. We aimed to derive a preliminary typology of terrestrial bird communities for

The evolution of the natural killer complex; a comparison between mammals using new high-quality genome assemblies and targeted annotation. [PDF]
, 2017 Natural killer (NK) cells are a diverse population of lymphocytes with a range of biological roles including essential immune functions. NK cell diversity is in part created by the differential expression of cell surface receptors which modulate ...

Temperature‐dependent pollinator‐mediated selection on floral thermoregulation
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1716-1726, February 2026.Summary The thermal environment is one of the most pervasive agents of selection. Most plants cannot choose their microclimate, so understanding how they cope with thermal variability is of critical concern. Several floral traits can modify the floral thermal microenvironment, which may alleviate negative impacts of thermal extremes on gametophytes and
