The Wisconsin State Horse Council Equine Foundation was created to better serve Wisconsin's growing equestrian community and to help that community realize its fullest potential. The Foundation is a tax exempt, non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization and as such allows individuals to make tax-deductible contributions to support Wisconsin equine projects. The mission of the Equine Foundation is to support Wisconsin's expanding equestrian community by funding: ....Educational Initiatives ....Equine Research ....Trail Development ....Youth Scholarship and Participation What is our relationship with the Wisconsin Horse Council? The Wisconsin Horse Council is our parent organization and the sole member of the WSHC Equine Foundation. WHC Board of Directors are elected to serve on the WSHC Equine Foundation Board of Directors, along with non-WHC individuals. The WHC was incorporated in 1972 as an advocate for the equine owners and industry in the State of Wisconsin. It has grown to become the focus of the equine industry in Wisconsin. The Mission Statement of the Wisconsin Horse Council is: To represent and foster a unified equine industry in Wisconsin. To promote the horse through leadership, education, service and communications, and to take a proactive role in the future growth and development of the equine industry in the State of Wisconsin. The WSHC Equine Foundation is a federally approved 501C(3) non-profit corporation dedicated to the advancement of eq- uine activities and the equine industry in general.

While the frame- work outlines broad themes for reform, AHC and its partners are focusing efforts on repeal of the estate tax, also known as the “death tax,” as a pillar for a 21st century tax code. Below are summaries of tactics used to move the legislative process forward, and highlights from conversations with congressional and administration officials. Congress Hears from Small Business, Agriculture: On September 12 – two weeks prior to release of the GOP framework – AHC joined nearly 150 small business groups in a coalition letter to congressional leadership urging full repeal of the estate tax. When the government imposes estate taxes on an equine operation, surviving family partners may be forced to sell equipment and other assets to save the family busi- ness. Signatories represent a cross-section of American business, including builders and contractors, grocers, truckers and cattlemen. Advocates emphasized the fact that repeal of the estate tax would not only cost the treasury relatively little reve- nue in the short term, but ultimately increase tax revenues by $145 billion over a ten year period. Underscoring minimal, short-term impacts on the federal budget is crucial to moving tax reform through the budget reconciliation process, which requires Congress to demonstrate that the new and improved tax code will ultimately achieve deficit reduction. “Budget Reconciliation,” a Procedural High Jump: Before moving forward with a tax reform bill, Congress must first pass a federal budget for FY2018 which includes instruc- tions for tax legislation. The process, known as “budget reconciliation,” allows the Senate to pass a bill with 51 votes, there- fore bypassing the 60 vote threshold necessary to avoid the filibuster that applies to most legislation. This parliamentary tactic is crucial for tax reform legislation, where Republicans

  • Preface to Artificial Key to Common and Noteworthy Species of Inocybe from the Pacific Northwest
    Preface to Artificial Key to Common and Noteworthy Species of Inocybe from the Pacific Northwest This key is aimed at an audience familiar with the determination of agarics in general but unfamiliar with Inocybe. The key stresses gross morphological characters as I think appropriate before yielding to taxa that are better distinguished microscopically. 43 species are enumerated below and several others are mentioned, but probably over 100 occur in the Pacific Northwest, a region circumscribed to include British Columbia, Washington, Idaho, western Montana, Oregon, and northern California. Of the 43 species in the key, few are endemic to the region based on gross morphological species concepts. However, the key is recommended for use with Pacific Northwest material. Many eastern North American species of Inocybe, for example, do not occur in the Pacific Northwest and are excluded from this treatment. The genus Inocybe (Fr.) Fr. traditionally has encompassed dull brown-spored agarics that are ectomycorrhizal and frequently occur on soil; exhibit a dry pileus that is often rimose, fibrillose, or scaly; and have a distinctive smell that is often spermatic or less often fruity, sweet, aromatic, like bruised Geranium leaves, like Lycoperdon, or green corn. Species of Hebeloma differ by their gelatinous pileus, often radish smell, typically verrucose basidiospores, and absence of metuloid cystidia. Decomposers such as Phaeomarasmius and Flammulaster differ by their occurrence on woody debris and lack of metuloid cystidia. The Crepidotaceae, including Pleuroflammula and Simocybe, is the closest related group to Inocybe, which I treat as a separate family in its own right (see Matheny et al. (2006) Mycologia 98:982- 995).

A taxonomic survey of the Peniophoraceae Mathias Andreasen [email protected] & Nils Hallenberg [email protected] Dept of Plant and Environmental Sciences Box 461, S-405 30 Gothenburg, Sweden Introduction This work is a literature study of peniophoroid basidiomycetes, holding information about the genera Peniophora, Duportella and Dendrophora concerning species- and generic descriptions and distributions, all on a worldwide scale. Moreover, keys have been made to distinguish the different genera and species, and we have tried to get an overview over the molecular studies made on this group of fungi. It is generally accepted that the genus Peniophora Cooke is a member of the Corticiaceae s.l. in its traditional sense (Wu 2003). Cortbase recognizes 78 species in Peniophora, 12 species in Duportella and 2 in Dendrophora (Cortbase 2008), but some species are little known and may just have been found once, while other ones are very closely related and difficult to distinguish even by use of the microscope.

  • Atlarda Don (Vücut Rengi) Coat Colour in Horses
    GOÜ, Ziraat Fakültesi Dergisi, 2011, 28(2), 145-152 Atlarda Don (Vücut Rengi) Orhan YILMAZ1 Mehmet ERTUĞRUL2 Iğdır Üniversitesi, Ziraat Fakültesi, Zootekni Bölümü, Iğdır 2Ankara Üniversitesi, Ziraat Fakültesi, Zootekni Bölümü, Ankara Özet: Bu çalışmada atlarda çeşitli donları incelenmiştir. Atın vücut rengine Türkçede don adı verilir. Don, sadece atseverler ve yetiştiricileri için değil, aynı zamanda bilim insanları için de her zaman bir çekim kaynağı olmuştur. Don, bir atı tanımlamada en önemli faktörlerden birisidir. Bir atın performansı ile hiç alakalı olmamasına karşın; bir atın don rengi, o atın beğenilmesinde en önemli faktör olabilir. Diğer bütün özellikleri aynı olsa bile, atseverler genellikle bir atı rengi dolayısı ile seçme eğilimdedir. Atların kullanım amacından daha çok estetik görünümleri nedeni ile seçilmelerinden dolayı at donlarının tanımlanması ve kalıtımına olan ilgi büyüktür. Bu derleme bu nedenle hazırlanmıştır. Anahtar kelimeler: At, don kalıtımı, fenotipik özellik, melanin, gen. Coat Colour in Horses Abstract: In this review various kinds of coat colour of horse were studied. Horse coat colour is called as don in Turkish. Don has always been a topic of interest not only to owners and breeders but also to scientist. Don is one of the first main factors of determining a horse. Horse coat colour can be primary factor to possess a horse by horse owners or breeders, although coat colour of horses has little to do its performance. All other things being equal, most horse fancier would naturally tend to choose a horse of a colour that attracts to them. When more and more horses are valued for primarily aesthetic rather than utilitarian aim, there is a great deal of interest in defining and breeding for colour.

  • Scottish Macro-Moth List, 2015
    Notes on the Scottish Macro-moth List, 2015 This list aims to include every species of macro-moth reliably recorded in Scotland, with an assessment of its Scottish status, as guidance for observers contributing to the National Moth Recording Scheme (NMRS). It updates and amends the previous lists of 2009, 2011, 2012 & 2014. The requirement for inclusion on this checklist is a minimum of one record that is beyond reasonable doubt. Plausible but unproven species are relegated to an appendix, awaiting confirmation or further records. Unlikely species and known errors are omitted altogether, even if published records exist. Note that inclusion in the Scottish Invertebrate Records Index (SIRI) does not imply credibility. At one time or another, virtually every macro-moth on the British list has been reported from Scotland. Many of these claims are almost certainly misidentifications or other errors, including name confusion. However, because the County Moth Recorder (CMR) has the final say, dubious Scottish records for some unlikely species appear in the NMRS dataset. A modern complication involves the unwitting transportation of moths inside the traps of visiting lepidopterists. Then on the first night of their stay they record a species never seen before or afterwards by the local observers. Various such instances are known or suspected, including three for my own vice-county of Banffshire. Surprising species found in visitors’ traps the first time they are used here should always be regarded with caution. Clerical slips – the wrong scientific name scribbled in a notebook – have long caused confusion. An even greater modern problem involves errors when computerising the data.

  • Pygoscelis Adeliae) at Cape Crozier, Ross Island, Antarctica PARKER M
    Antarctic Science page 1 of 9 (2021) © Antarctic Science Ltd 2021 doi:10.1017/S0954102021000158 Breeding behaviour of colour-aberrant Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) at Cape Crozier, Ross Island, Antarctica PARKER M. LEVINSON 1, ANNIE E. SCHMIDT 1, VIRGINIA MORANDINI2, MEGAN ELROD1, DENNIS JONGSOMJIT1 and GRANT BALLARD1 1Point Blue Conservation Science, 3820 Cypress Dr #11, Petaluma, CA 94954, USA 2Oregon State University, 104 Nash Hall, Corvallis, OR 97331, USA [email protected] Abstract: Plumage colour variation occurs widely among bird species and is often associated with individual fitness. More specifically, colouration can affect thermoregulatory ability, mate selection and conspicuousness during foraging. Colour aberrations can be caused by genetic mutations, dietary imbalances, environmental conditions or disease and are rare. Plumage variations have previously been noted in Adélie penguins, although without any follow-up to measure implications for behaviour or fitness. To assess how this low-frequency condition affects breeding in Adélie penguins, we monitored the breeding of several colour-aberrant Adélie penguins during the 2019–2020 nesting season at the large Cape Crozier, Ross Island colony (> 300,000 pairs). In total, we found 12 individuals with unusual plumage for a frequency of 1:50,000 breeding penguins. There were seven dark brown Adélie penguins, three progressive greying Adélie penguins, one dilute Adélie penguin and one brown Adélie penguin, of which five were female, three male and four of unknown sex. Six colour aberrants initiated breeding with a normal-coloured mate, and five raised at least one chick to crèche. The likelihood of breeding and breeding success of colour aberrants were similar to those of normal-coloured Adélie penguins, suggesting that colour aberrations do not negatively affect breeding.
