GENOMIC ANALYSIS OF SOW REPRODUCTIVE TRAITS: IDENTIFICATION OF SELECTIVE SWEEPS, MAJOR GENES, AND GENOTYPE BY DIET INTERACTIONS By Melanie Dawn Trenhaile A THESIS Presented to the Faculty of The Graduate College at the University of Nebraska In Partial Fulfillment of Requirements For the Degree of Master of Science Major: Animal Science Under the Supervision of Professor Daniel Ciobanu Lincoln, Nebraska December, 2015 GENOMIC ANALYSIS OF SOW REPRODUCTIVE TRAITS: IDENTIFICATION OF SELECTIVE SWEEPS, MAJOR GENES, AND GENOTYPE BY DIET INTERACTIONS Melanie D. Trenhaile, M.S. University of Nebraska, 2015 Advisor: Daniel Ciobanu Reproductive traits, such as litter size and reproductive longevity, are economically important. However, selection for these traits is difficult due to low heritability, polygenic nature, sex-limited expression, and expression late in life. -
Scholarship Boys and Children's Books
Scholarship Boys and Children’s Books: Working-Class Writing for Children in Britain in the 1960s and 1970s Haru Takiuchi Thesis submitted towards the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics, Newcastle University, March 2015 ii ABSTRACT This thesis explores how, during the 1960s and 1970s in Britain, writers from the working-class helped significantly reshape British children’s literature through their representations of working-class life and culture. The three writers at the centre of this study – Aidan Chambers, Alan Garner and Robert Westall – were all examples of what Richard Hoggart, in The Uses of Literacy (1957), termed ‘scholarship boys’. By this, Hoggart meant individuals from the working-class who were educated out of their class through grammar school education. The thesis shows that their position as scholarship boys both fed their writing and enabled them to work radically and effectively within the British publishing system as it then existed. Although these writers have attracted considerable critical attention, their novels have rarely been analysed in terms of class, despite the fact that class is often central to their plots and concerns. This thesis, therefore, provides new readings of four novels featuring scholarship boys: Aidan Chambers’ Breaktime and Dance on My Grave, Robert Westall’s Fathom Five, and Alan Garner’s Red Shift. The thesis is split into two parts, and these readings make up Part 1. Part 2 focuses on scholarship boy writers’ activities in changing publishing and reviewing practices associated with the British children’s literature industry. In doing so, it shows how these scholarship boy writers successfully supported a movement to resist the cultural mechanisms which suppressed working-class culture in British children’s literature. -

The Tamworth Breeders’ Club Autumn 2011 Volume 6, Issue 1 TamworthTamworth Tamworths - The future’s orange! TrumpetTrumpet New Club Secretary Lucy has decided to relinquish being Tamworth secretary owing to changed circumstances in her life- style which have severely reduced the amount of time available for her to do the job as she wanted. She has done an enormous amount for us over the past year not least completely revising and updat- ing the membership list and determining who was and who was not paid up! Inside this issue: She also oversaw the revamping of our website transferring the domain to the club’s ownership and control. Not least she has been very patiently dealing with members queries and problems, some of Tamworth Trifles 2 which were far from easy going to sort out. We are very grateful to her for putting such a lot of her time into the role and are delighted that she intends to continue her membership. We shall also look Chairman’s Message 3 forward to seeing her in her position at the Royal Berks Show which she undertakes with great finesse 25 Years with Tammys 4-5 and success each year. Thank you Lucy for being there for us at a difficult time. Howes ‘At! 6 We are very lucky to have found someone to take over from Tammys in NZ 7 Lucy and here is an introduction in her own words: My name is Michele Baldock, and I live on a smallholding on New Book 8 the Romney Marsh in Kent with my husband Mark and two daughters Florence & Edie. -

The identification of selection footprints across domesticated genomes can contribute to uncover the genetic basis of phenotypic diversity. Methodology/Main Findings: Genome wide footprints of pig domestication and selection were identified using massive parallel sequencing of pooled reduced representation libraries (RRL) representing ,2% of the genome from wild boar and four domestic pig breeds (Large White, Landrace, Duroc and Pietrain) which have been under strong selection for muscle development, growth, behavior and coat color. Using specifically developed statistical methods that account for DNA pooling, low mean sequencing depth, and sequencing errors, we provide genome-wide estimates of nucleotide diversity and genetic differentiation in pig. Widespread signals suggestive of positive and balancing selection were found and the strongest signals were observed in Pietrain, one of the breeds most intensively selected for muscle development. Most signals were population-specific but affected genomic regions which harbored genes for common biological categories including coat color, brain development, muscle development, growth, metabolism, olfaction and immunity. -
