Scott Intellectual Property Rights Protecting Plant Inventions 381 R. Hanson and S. Highlander Preface Forage grasses and forage legumes are critical to livestock industries throughout the world. They play a major role in providing high quality roughage for the economical production of meat, milk and fiber products, and are important in soil conservation and environmental protection. Besides being used as forage, some of the grasses are grown specifically for turf or amenity purposes on sports fields, golf courses, parks, lawns and roadsides. Turf grasses contribute considerably to our environment by adding beauty to the surroundings, providing a safe playing surface for sports and recreation, and preventing erosion. Genetic improvement is one of the most effective ways to increase productivity of forage and turf. Due to the biological complexity of forage and turf species and the associated difficulties encountered by traditional breeding methods, the potential of molecular breeding for the development of improved cultivars is evident. The joint efforts of molecular biologists, plant breeders and scientists in related disciplines will make the available biotechnological methods useful for accelerating forage and turf improvement. The 3rd International Symposium on Molecular Breeding of Forage and Turf was held May 18-22, 2003, in Dallas, Texas and Ardmore, Oklahoma. The Conference was hosted by The Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation in cooperation with Texas A&M University. Attendees included breeders, molecular biologists, geneticists, agronomists and biochemists from sixteen countries. The program featured plenary addresses from leading international speakers, selected oral presentations, volunteered poster presentations, as well as tours of the Noble Foundation in Ardmore, Oklahoma, and the Texas A&M Agricultural Research and Extension Center in Dallas. This book includes papers from the plenary lectures and selected oral presentations of the Conference. A wide variety of themes are included and a collection of authoritative reports provided on the recent progress and understanding of molecular technologies and their application in plant improvement. Almost all relevant areas in molecular breeding of forage and turf, from gene discovery to the development of improved cultivars, are discussed in the proceedings. The 3rd International Symposium on Molecular Breeding of Forage and Turf and the publication of this volume, Molecular Breeding of Forage and Turf, have been supported by the Noble Foundation, Texas A&M University, National Science Foundation, USDA-ARS, U.S. Golf Association, Texas xi xii Turfgrass Association, Controlled Environments Ltd.

  • A Study of Semantic Integration Across Archaeological Data and Reports in Different Languages
    Author accepted version Accepted for publication in Journal of Information Science SAGE Publishing. ISSN: 01655515 http://journals.sagepub.com/home/jis Binding C, Tudhope D, Vlachidis A. A study of semantic integration across archaeological data and reports in different languages. Journal of Information Science. In Press. Reprinted by permission of SAGE Publications. A study of semantic integration across archaeological data and reports in different languages Ceri Binding, Douglas Tudhope, (Hypermedia Research Group, University of South Wales), Andreas Vlachidis (University of the West of England) Abstract This study investigates the semantic integration of data extracted from archaeological datasets with information extracted via NLP across different languages. The investigation follows a broad theme relating to wooden objects and their dating via dendrochronological techniques, including types of wooden material, samples taken, wooden objects including shipwrecks. The outcomes are an integrated RDF dataset coupled with an associated interactive research demonstrator query builder application. The semantic framework combines the CIDOC CRM with the Getty Art and Architecture Thesaurus (AAT). The NLP, data cleansing and integration methods are described in detail together with illustrative scenarios from the web application Demonstrator. Reflections and recommendations from the study are discussed. The Demonstrator is a novel SPARQL web application, with CRM/AAT based data integration. Functionality includes the combination of free text and semantic search with browsing on semantic links, hierarchical and associative relationship thesaurus query expansion. Queries concern wooden objects (e.g. samples of beech wood keels), optionally from a given date range, with automatic expansion over AAT hierarchies of wood types and specialised associative relationships. Following a 'mapping pattern' approach (via the STELETO tool) ensured validity and consistency of all RDF output.

(Salicaceae) George W. Argus Canadian Museum of Nature, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Email: [email protected] Received: 28 February 2017 | Accepted by: Irina Belyaeva 3 April 2021 | Published online: 7 April 2021 Edited by: Irina Belyaeva, Keith Chamberlain, Yulia Kuzovkina Abstract This bibliography comprises references to publications related to the genus Salix. The list was compiled by the author during his scientific career. The main focus of the list is on references related to willow nomenclature and taxonomy, but it also covers other biological aspects of the genus Salix and related genera. References are listed in alphabetical and chronological order. The titles of books and articles are given in full and checked against WordCat (2021). The names of journals are abbreviated according to Botanico-Periodicum-Huntiarum (BPH, 2021), the names of periodicals absent from BPH are marked with asterisks. This list was completed by the author in 2016 but has been much revised and checked by the editors of Skvortsovia since then. Keywords: bibliographic references, nomenclature, morphology, taxonomy, phylogenetics, Salix (Salicaceae) Introduction References mainly pertain to Salix L. This list was transcribed from hundreds of hand-written or typed index cards written by me or, sometimes, by my assistants. As this was done over many years and because some of the handwritten cards were difficult to read some typographical errors may have been introduced. The original cards were discarded after transcription and proofreading.
