The Impact of the Academic Progress Rating on the Retention and Recruiting Strategies of NCAA Division I Football Programs
… student athletes. The Academic Progress Rating (APR), was designed to hold each individual athletic program accountable for keeping student athletes eligible and at the institution until the student athlete graduates. With this reform the NCAA attached land mark discipline measures for non …

Dissecting the Multifaceted Relationship Between Maize and Cochliobolus carbonum race 1
… of Hm1 that exhibit an adult plant resistance (APR) phenotype, being fairly susceptible during the seedling stage and gradually increasing in resistance with development. The HM1A protein differs from HM1 by five amino acid substitutions while HM1-SM1 and HM1-SM2 have a single amino acid …

Validation, Saturation, and Marker-Assisted Selection of Quantitative Trait Loci Conferring Adult Plant Resistance to Powdery Mildew in an Elite Wheat Breeding Population
… resistance, such as "adult plant resistance" (APR). Molecular markers and quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with APR to powdery mildew must first be validated and QTL effects evaluated in different genetic backgrounds and breeding populations to be useful in marker-assisted selection …

Molecular marker analysis of adult plant resistance to powdery mildew in common wheat
… it is ephemeral. Adult plant resistance (APR) to powdery mildew is more durable as demonstrated by the cultivar Massey, which has maintained its APR to powdery mildew since its release in 1981. To develop an efficient breeding strategy, it is essential to understand the genetic basis of …

Validation of Loci Conferring Adult Plant Resistance to Powdery Mildew in Wheat Cultivar Massey and Identification of Diagnostic Molecular Markers
… trait loci (QTL) such as adult-plant resistance (APR), have become popular with plant breeders because of their durability over a wide geographic range and time. Due to the quantitative nature of these genes, they are difficult to study requiring multiple assessments of disease development under …

Predicting Student-Athlete Academic Success With Preadmission, Social-Contextual, and Sport Variables
… The NCAA created the Academic Progress Rate (APR) metric to assess if universities were facilitating academic success for student-athletes. Athletic programs that fail to meet an APR score of 925 receive a variety of penalties. These penalties not only hurt the athletic program but also …

Social Support Regarding Abortion Decision and Mental Health Outcomes at Time of Seeking Abortion Services
… (48.7% versus 32.0%; adjusted Prevalence Ratio [aPR]: 1.55; 95% CI: 1.05, 2.30) compared to those with full support. A similar trend was observed for prevalence of anxiety risk, though results were not statistically significant (40.5% vs. 32.7%; aPR: 1.25; 95% CI: 0.83, 1.89). Partial support …

DETERMINANTS OF HIGH-RISK HPV SEROPREVALENCE AND DNA PREVALENCE IN MID-ADULT WOMEN
… or separated women (adjusted prevalence ratio [aPR] = 0.84, 95% CI: 0.74-0.96). In addition, compared to women who had never used hormonal contraceptives, those who were current (aPR = 1.54, 95% CI: 1.03-2.32) or former users (aPR = 1.66, 95% CI: 1.12-2.48) were more likely to be seropositive. …

Structure and activity relationships of bimetallic catalysts for aqueous phase reforming and the water-gas shift reaction
… fuels and chemicals is aqueous phase reforming (APR) of cellulose-derived carbohydrates. In the first study Pt/MWCNT catalysts have been promoted by addition of transition metal promoters Cu, Ni, Co, Fe, Mn, Mo, W, and Re in Pt:M 1:1 atomic ratios to give up to 13 times higher glycerol reforming …

Mean Flow and Turbulence Characteristics of Pool -Riffle Structures in Low -Gradient Streams
… riffles (CPR), and alternate pools and riffles (APR). The CPR configuration was included since centered pools minimize the possibility of scour near the banks, and are thus particularly suitable for urban rehabilitation projects where bank erosion is undesirable. The sequence FB-CPR-APR …

Application of information technology and statistical process control in pharmaceutical quality assurance & compliance
… bodies through the Annual Product Review (APR). However, procedural changes alone cannot bring about the needed innovation. Currently, too much time is spent on data consolidation and other non-value added tasks allowing less time for analysis. The solution is an Information Technology …

Effects of Lipopolysaccharide Induced Inflammatory Response on Early Embryo Survival in Ewes
… an innate immune system acute phase response (APR). The induction of the APR and its reactant molecules, such as TNF-&agr; and acute phase proteins (APP), haptoglobin (Hp) and serum amyloid A (SAA), were initiated to study their effects on embryonic loss. In addition, ewes were also injected …
