Strategies for Engineering Reproductive Sterility in Plantation Forests
A considerable body of research exists concerning the development of technologies to engineer sterility in forest trees. The primary driver for this work has been to mitigate concerns arising from gene flow from commercial plantings of genetically engineered (GE) trees to non-GE plantations, or to wild or feral relatives.

The Influence of raw and Sterilized Milk on Growth and Reproduction in Rats [PDF]
1. Groups of young rats have been fed for periods up to one year on a diet consisting of raw or sterilized milk, with a biscuit made from white flour, to which were added supplements of iron, copper and manganese salts. By this method two samples of commercially sterilized milks, prepared by two different processes, have been compared with the ...

Reproductive isolation caused by azoospermia in sterile male hybrids of Drosophila [PDF]
AbstractRecently diverged populations in the early stages of speciation offer an opportunity to understand mechanisms of isolation and their relative contributions. Drosophila willistoni is a tropical species with broad distribution from Argentina to the southern United States, including the Caribbean islands.

Dominance of sterilization and alternative choices of contraception in India: an appraisal of the socioeconomic impact. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The recent decline in fertility in India has been unprecedented especially in southern India, where fertility is almost exclusively controlled by means of permanent contraceptive methods, mainly female sterilization, which constitutes about ...

Vasectomy and vasectomy reversal: An update
Vasectomy is an elective surgical sterilization procedure for men that is intended to obstruct or remove a portion of both vas deferens, thereby preventing sperm from moving from the testes to the ejaculatory ducts.

Effect of X-ray irradiation on development, flight, and reproduction of Spodoptera litura
Spodoptera litura is an omnivorous pest that has spread globally. Because irradiation sterilization technology has a great potential for control of S. litura, the effect of 25–150 Gy doses of X-rays on pupal survival, flight and reproductive variables of

Genetic engineering of reproductive sterility in forest trees [PDF]
Containment of transgenes inserted into genetically engineered forest trees will probably be necessary before most commercial uses are possible. This is a consequence of (1) high rates of gene dispersal by pollen and seed, (2) proximity of engineered trees in plantations to natural or feral stands of interfertile species, and (3) potentially ...

Experimental Tests of Nonsurgical Reproductive Inhibitors to Prevent Coyote Reproduction
Sterilization is an effective nonlethal tool to reduce livestock depredation by coyotes (Canis latrans) because adults without pups to provision are less likely to kill livestock. Surgical sterilization is costly and invasive, so identifying non-surgical
