A Pseudoknot Improves Selection Efficiency in Ribosome Display
… the mRNA pseudoknot exhibited a higher efficiency of affinity selection than that those without, indicating that the pseudoknot improves stability of the mRNA-ribosome-antibody complex in a eukaryotic translation system. Thus, in order to improve the efficiency of selection, this …

Characterizing phenotypic diversity, genotype by environment interactions, and optimizing selection efficiency of a miscanthus germplasm collection
… U.S. and determine how to best maximize breeding efficiency for Miscanthus. Multiple studies were conducted to: 1) determine low temperature thresholds for damage and death of Miscanthus seedlings in a controlled environment chamber, 2) quantify the effect of early planting dates for Miscanthus …

Selection and Assortative Mating
Theoretical aspects of selection and assortative mating were considered separately and jointly. Selection based on the conditional mean of the merit variable given the data maximizes the expected value of the merit variable when the proportion selected is constant. This is optimal even if …

Evaluation of Seed-Filling Period as an Indirect Selection Trait for Higher Yield and Its Relationship With Nitrogen Parameters in Soybean
… in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.). Indirect selection for yield using SFP is effective if heritability of SFP is higher than that for yield, and genetic correlation between SFP and yield is high. Relative selection efficiency of gain (p) was computed to determine the merit of using SFP in …

Seed germination, kanamycin sulfate selection, and the influence of nitrogen treatments on an insertional mutant population of Fragaria vesca
… plants receiving lower levels of nitrogen. The selection efficiency and greater germination of the B5 liquid medium over MS medium would be expected to reduce the cost of screening thousands of seedlings because of the need for fewer disposables and medium transfers during the 5 week germination …

Development of New and Alternative Resources for Breeding Low Phytate Soybeans
… germplasm, as it preserves diversity and allows selection for improved field emergence. Integration of markers into a pedigree method will be useful to breeder. An example is BARCSOYSSR_11_1495 with 90-93% selection efficiency in various V99-5089-derived populations. Another resource for improved …

Factors Affecting Within-plant Variation of Cotton Fiber Quality and Yield
… for the components of micronaire may increase selection efficiency and genetic gain compared to breeding for micronaire directly. In addition, these results show that yield and quality within genotypes are highly variable, and a significant amount of the variation is attributable to a boll’s …

Beauty meson to double open charm decays with the LHCb detector
… beauty hadron neural network and exclusive selections for doubly charmed beauty meson decays are developed, which are implemented in the trigger for future data taking. The improvement in selection efficiency using these selections in the upgraded trigger system is evaluated. Additionally, …

Adaptive systems for DDoS attacks detection and mitigation in IoT networks
… for IoT networks, balancing accuracy, resource efficiency, and adaptability. The first objective focuses on developing a Flow and Unified Information-based DDoS detection system (FLUID) for small-scale IoT networks, enabling DDoS detection with minimal computational overhead. The FLUID system …

Hunting Supermassive Black Holes in the Early Universe
… to the surveys limit. We studied the optimal selection, which include colors, surface densities, and proper motion, to maximize quasar yields.Our result showed that Roman and Rubin surveys are able to reach 90% completeness while maintaining a minimum 10% selection efficiency. We are able to …

Assessment of methods to screen for carotenoids in yellow-fleshed potato germplasm
… (N = 60) from the Colorado Potato Breeding and Selection Program. The specific aim eventually is to improve selection efficiency and accelerate genetic gain in nutritional quality of potato cultivars. Phenotypic tuber flesh color (FC) rating (0 – 3), chroma values, and individual and total …

Z \(\gamma\) + differential cross section measurements and the digital timing calibration of the level-1 calorimeter trigger cluster processor system in ATLAS
… correction is used to account for the signal selection efficiency and purity, and to correct the measured (simulated) distribution back to the theoretical prediction. The main backgrounds are found to be from the final state radiation \(Z\) + \(\gamma\) process, and from jets faking photons in …

Signals for B cell activation in antibody response
… the sites where V-gene hypermutation and B cell selection are taking place. Testing specificity and affinity of GC B cell receptor by interaction with antigen on follicular dendritic cells (FDCs) may be an important selection process to select high affinity B cell clone. As antigen on FDC is …

Developing Breeding Objectives for Targhee Sheep
… by feed costs and lamb market values (P < 0.01). Selection indexes were derived within and across simulated scenarios, and correlation (r) among indexes of > 0.90 indicated that an index could be used across multiple scenarios with little loss of selection efficiency. Indexes derived within feed …

Assessment of farmer preferences, constraints and angro-morphological variation among Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc.) accessions as a basis for seed yield selection index
… a polygenic traits, some breeders nowadays use a selection index technique for yield improvement. In this study, a selection index was constructed using yield traits as seed yield, biological yield, dry pod weight per plant, and fresh pod weight per hectare. The index based on three traits, namely …

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy quality assessment at CUBIC and application to the study of the cerebellar deep nuclei in children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder
… was constructed to determine the localisation efficiency of the 3 T Siemens Allegra MRI scanner located at the Cape Universities Brain Imaging Centre (CUBIC). Sufficient localisation is the key to acquiring useful spectroscopic data as only the signal from a small volume of interest (VOI) is …
