TL;DR: This study presented the first high density linkage disequilibrium map and haplotype block structure for a composite beef cattle population, and indicates that the high density SNP panel over 700 k can be used for genomic selection implementation and GWA studies for Canchim beef cattle.
Abstract: The development of linkage disequilibrium (LD) maps and the characterization of haplotype block structure at the population level are useful parameters for guiding genome wide association (GWA) studies, and for understanding the nature of non-linear association between phenotypes and genes. The elucidation of haplotype block structure can reduce the information of several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) into the information of a haplotype block, reducing the number of SNPs in a coherent way for consideration in GWA and genomic selection studies. The maximum average LD, measured by r2 varied between 0.33 to 0.40 at a distance of < 2.5 kb, and the minimum average values of r2 varied between 0.05 to 0.07 at distances ranging from 400 to 500 kb, clearly showing that the average r2 reduced with the increase in SNP pair distances. The persistence of LD phase showed higher values at shorter genomic distances, decreasing with the increase in physical distance, varying from 0.96 at a distance of < 2.5 kb to 0.66 at a distance from 400 to 500 kb. A total of 78% of all SNPs were clustered into haplotype blocks, covering 1,57 Mb of the total autosomal genome size. This study presented the first high density linkage disequilibrium map and haplotype block structure for a composite beef cattle population, and indicates that the high density SNP panel over 700 k can be used for genomic selection implementation and GWA studies for Canchim beef cattle.

TL;DR: In this article, metal/polymer Schottky barrier diodes have been fabricated using electrochemically prepared films of polyaniline as the semiconductor and aluminium as the metal.
Abstract: Metal/polymer Schottky barrier diodes have been fabricated using electrochemically prepared films of polyaniline as the semiconductor and aluminium as the metal. Polyaniline was doped with HCl at room temperature to form a p-type semiconductor. On a sandwich-type device, the junction at Al/polyaniline showed rectifying behavior, and was used as a sensor for the detection of methane gas. The current–voltage ( I – V ) and capacitance–voltage ( C – V ) characteristics have been studied at room temperature, and the shifts in the I – V and C – V dependence of the diodes were measured with different concentrations of gas for different time intervals. The data have been analysed and interpreted on the basis of the thermionic emission mechanism.

TL;DR: In this paper, fibers from 12 different varieties of pineapples (Ananas genus) were characterized on their morphology, structure, chemical composition, mechanical and thermal properties, indicating the potential of using all selected pineapple fibers as reinforcing fillers (depending on the polymer matrix and processing method).

TL;DR: The optimum-path forest (OPF) clustering algorithm has been employed to identify irregular and regular profiles of commercial and industrial consumers obtained from a Brazilian electrical power company, and a model for the problem of NTL recognition as an anomaly detection task has been proposed.

TL;DR: The hypercube is a spatially distributed queuing model based on Markovian analysis approximations, used to analyze the configuration and operation of server-to-customer emergency systems, adapted to analyze emergency medical systems on highways, which operate within particular dispatching policies.
Abstract: The hypercube is a spatially distributed queuing model based on Markovian analysis approximations, used to analyze the configuration and operation of server-to-customer emergency systems. In the present study we adapted the model to analyze emergency medical systems (EMS) on highways, which operate within particular dispatching policies. The study takes into consideration that: the emergency calls are of different types; the servers are distinct (e.g., rescue ambulances, medical vehicles); only certain servers in the system can service calls in a given region (partial backup); and, depending on the type of call, one or more identical or distinct servers are immediately dispatched to service such calls (multiple dispatch). We also consider that the arriving calls take place either along the highway or at the home location of a server – in which case the server does not need to travel to the call location. Finally, we analyzed the computational results of applying such an approach to the case study of an EMS operating on Brazilian highways.
