Estimation of repeatability and number of evaluations for characterization of mango germplasm.
This study had the objective of estimating the repetition coefficient for the traits number of fruits per plant (NFP), fruit yield per plant (FYP), mean fruit weight (MFW), flesh weight (FW), skin weight (SW), seed weight (SEW), longitudinal diameter of fruit (LDF), transversal diameter of fruit (TDF), LDFITDF ratio, longitudinal diameter of seed (LDS), transversal diameter of seed (TDS), and LDS/TDS ratio, as well as finding the minimal number of evaluations necessary for the characterization of mango germplasm
Efficiency of low versus high airline pressure in stunning cattle with a pneumatically powered penetrating captive bolt gun
The efficiency of stunning cattle was assessed in 443 animals (304 pure Zebu and 139 crossbred cattle), being mainly mature bulls and cows. Cattle were stunned using a Jarvis pneumatically powered penetrating captive bolt gun operating with low (160â175 psi, N = 82) and high (190 psi, N = 363) airline pressure, which was within the manufactures specifications. Signs of brain function and the position of the shots on the heads were recorded after stunning. Velocity of the captive bolt and its physical parameters were calculated. Cattle shot with low pressures showed more rhythmic respiration (27 vs. 8%, P < 0.001), less tongue protrusion (4 vs. 12%, P = 0.03) and less masseter relaxation (22 vs. 48%, P < 0.001). There was an increased frequency of shots in the ideal position when cattle were shot with the low compared to high airline pressures (15.3 vs. 3.1%). Bolt velocity and its physical parameters were significantly (P < 0.01) higher when using high pressure. Airline pressures below 190 psi are inappropriate when shooting adult Zebu beef cattle with pneumatically powered penetrating captive bolt guns

Fast Community Identification by Hierarchical Growth
A new method for community identification is proposed which is founded on the
analysis of successive neighborhoods, reached through hierarchical growth from
a starting vertex, and on the definition of communities as a subgraph whose
number of inner connections is larger than outer connections. In order to
determine the precision and speed of the method, it is compared with one of the
most popular community identification approaches, namely Girvan and Newman's
algorithm. Although the hierarchical growth method is not as precise as Girvan
and Newman's method, it is potentially faster than most community finding
algorithms.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
